Summary

SUMMARY: Balance "Increase the storage capacity of body bags"

Purpose of change

Body bags are presumably used to store human corpses; however, the body bag in the game could only store up to 25 liters whereas human corpses have a volume of 62.5 liters.

Describe the solution

I have changed the "contains" value for the body bag.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Leaving it alone.

Testing

I have checked the body bag I have in my hideout and it has the correct storage capacity; in addition, the body bags spawned from debugging have the correct capacity.

Body bag has 62.5 L storage instead of 25 L.

With the average american male weighing close to 200 pounds (90 kg), and there being probably at least a little margin on the bodybags to fit people that are above average, these probably need to be slightly larger still.
With human bodies having a density quite close to 1 kg/L, setting this to a round 100L would probably be okay, though 120L would also not be out of the question.

Definitely a good spot that they were too small before.

I am basing the new capacity on the volume of corpses of human corpses in-game, hence the 62.5 liters. Should I increase it in case of human corpse volumes becoming variable in the future?

Absolutely, they are pre-cataclysm bodybags after all and should be modeled after what we use in real life, not to vacuum seal exactly one zombie corpse. Then when corpses are variable it will end up fitting most, but not the hulks/ juggernauts/ obese boomer zombies.
