Thanks ElSalvaje, I forgot about using the Intelligence screen, I thought that was just for contraband. And I did see the Alpha 25 video but it was a while back and I'm rusty on it, I'll go and give it another look.

Ah, that's not what I need. I'm trying to find the snitches in general population without having to go click on every prisoner, unless that's the only way to do it.

I may have missed this in one of the videos, but is the only way to find snitches and ex-guards in your prison population is by clicking on each one? Is there some search feature?

I found a good way to detect tunnels. In the morning, when they go to shower, I watch their needs, once a prisoner shows needs for Sleep, I click on him and order a search prison cell. Every time that person was digging a tunnel. :) OK, that's pretty awesome :D. Both the fact that the developers ha...

I've been running Alpha 13 for a couple of hours on my old Alpha 12 prison. I'm fine with the changes but am confused about one issue. So far three tunnels have appeared. What's weird is that I didn't search cells to find them and (I believe) no one escaped from them. I think this is true about the ...

This is a bit of an esoteric question, so bear with me. First, a quote from the developer wiki: Risk Category Prisoners have 3 risk categories, which give an estimate of the level of violence and disorder the player should expect from them based on their convictions. High Risk - Maximum Security Nor...

I've also had the cameras stop sweeping and also not see people and this is in a game started under Alpha 12. No biggie, since it's on the bug tracker. I have the camera dismantled and then reinstalled and that seems to fix it, at least for awhile.

At this time I don't think non-metal items are found automatically. That's for a future alpha I'm thinking. That's kind of what I'm asking... since it's non-metal and therefore not found automatically, why was this drugs item found at this time and place? Is it a random function, or does some attri...

I did try searching for this issue, but looking for contraband got me 258 results and non-metal found me 4 but not what I was looking for. My question is, how are non-metal contraband being found without searches? In my example below Mr Nightingale wandered through at least eight metal detectors wit...

if its not this have you found which prisoner that are the cause!? the message only appears (i think) after they been cuffed I never did find the prisoner, so I'm guessing he died before he could be dragged to solitary. I've since started another prison and inmates have been being dragged to solita...

If a prisoner is caught with contraband and subsequently searched by a guard (or the other way around too), the guard cuffs him, drops the contraband, and takes him to solitary. The next prisoner to walk past picks up the contraband and goes on their merry way off to shank Bob or Fred. If you have ...

Thanks for the reply Axios, that answers my question on Lockdown. I'm still confused on the message "1 awaiting Solitary Confinement". I went through and re-assigned my Solitary Cells just to make sure they were properly designated, but the message is still there. I'll keep playing around ...

I've had that message in the Incident Reports section of the ToDo list for several days now. I have several solitary confinement cells, labeled as such with the Rooms tool. Is there something I'm supposed to do to get this guy to solitary? I'm not sure who it is either. Any help would be appreciated...

Success! I was able to edit my save file to enable Fog of War after having started without it. You do have to let the game run several hours (in game time) for it to kick in, then viola!
