There is no prompt to pick up animals, so cannot use skinning bench. First survey mission.

I was able to pick up animals fine. Some animals like large deer, cannot be picked up, and for all of them if you are too close to them then the screen prompt about picking them up is not shown on the screen, but if they are able to be carried then holding the appropriate key (default is f I think) lets you pick them up even if you can't see the prompt. If you can confirm those aspects and report back here if you still can't pick something up that would help the team.

I wont be able to check this again until the full game releases now. This problem occurred with Chamois and wolf. I walked all around them trying to get the prompt to pick up. I'm pretty sure I tried holding F to see if it would work even without the prompt. I've picked up many animals in previous betas. I see no other reports here of a similar problem, so perhaps it was unique to me for some reason.
I'll report back when I can try again after the game opens later.
Thanks as always.

Was unable to pick up animal carcasses after I equipped, then unequipped backpack.
