Remove Zombie Corpse?
Buddy and I are doing a coop and we have 100's of corpses around our base, they are making us lag out. Burning them all is extremely tedius. Are there any admin commands or something I can use to just remove them?

1.Burn them or 2.Take them and carry to other place. Commands i don't know but in sandbox mode you can choose time after zombies will gone from map -1 it's never or something else.

Any way to do that after the server is created?

No there is no way to change settings after you've started. You'd have to wipe the server and start fresh with the preferred settings. That said it's really not too bad to just pile them up and burn them.

There are settings in game that can wipe ground items every so often? Any chance that would work? I couldn't find an object id for corpses

Pick up the corpse cremation mod. Not sure about servers but in single player you don't need to restart the game for it to work. You can then build a camp fire and use them to fuel the fire. Bit quicker then buring them one by one. Hydrocraft also allows you to turn them into charcoal with a kiln which is fairly easy to make. If you start a new game there is a sandbox setting that will decide when corpses will vanish if ever.

Balls were like 15 hours into the game so that's a no go. Playing with insane or whatever highest setting for zombies is. Been disposing of them but it's not fun anymore just a chore.

It's unfortunate. You can also get sick if you hang around dead bodies too long so it's best to have a way to get rid of them. I found out the hard way when I was working on two similar cars in a parking lot trying to raise mechanic skill. I kept getting sick from all the bodies. I tried buring them one by one but it was a chore like you said. I ended up using corpse cremation and just throwing the bodies into the fire. It still takes forever but it's not nearly as bad. Once I got into Hydrocraft it became even easier. You can use a pallet jack to carry 8 bodies at the same time and just head to the kiln and turn them all into charcoal all at once. Quite handy as charcoal is used for everything in that mod.

stick em all in 1 pile and burn em all at once.. why would u burn each body 1 by 1.. waste of resources..(fire does spread)

I have a server with one of my buddy and we had around 500 bodies around the base and it was unplayable due to the lag. But I went to the server setting and changed it to be removed every 30 min and it worked despite us being a month into the game

burn it

Fire spreads on pavement? News to me. You can also only put 50 lbs of weight in one spot so putting the bodies in one pile is impossible. So many better options available.
