Ragdoll physics help

[imMrAnarchy]

I'm attempting to create a Kidnapping swep. When hit with this swep, you're ragdolled. I want the kidnappers to then be able to "drag" the body somewhere. The only problem is that you can't gravgun ragdolls.

Is there any way around this?

You can give ownership of that ragdoll to the kidnapper. Giving physgun just for this purpose is kind of pointless though ( and abusable too ), you'd better create a Skyrim-like way of dragging bodies around.

Having Player:PickupObject() being called on the ragdoll works pretty well.

I've tried using Player:PickupObject() but it wont allow me to pick up any entities. It makes the sound like it's being picked up, but the entity just sits there. Here's my code:

function SWEP:SecondaryAttack()
	local ent = self.Owner:GetEyeTrace().Entity
	self:pickupRag(ent)
end

function SWEP:pickupRag(ent)
	if CLIENT then return end
	
	if ( ent:IsPlayerHolding() ) then print("HELD") return end
	self.Owner:PickupObject(ent)
end

Could it be the mass of the entity? I've set the mass to 1, but still nothing. Wont let me pick up props or ragdolls.
