Dead NPC’s

English:
How can you modify a dead NPC’s inventory?
What Object type is I after it died because it is not an NPC anymore and it seems to be not a chest.

German:
Wie kann man den Inhalt des Inventars eines Toten NPC (z.B. Schwein) verändern?
Was für ein Objekt ist ein totes Tier? Es scheint weder NPC noch Chest zu sein.

I had a look at the NPC class just now and there is no inventory related methods. NPC in general don't have an inventory, once they die they do drop some items but that "inventory" is not accessible through the API atm.

on your other question, an NPC remains an NPC after death as there is a .isDead() method for the API to check for that state

There will be a small change in the next update which sets the "info ID" of the npc (see npc.getInfoID()) to the temporary chest ID of the corpse
