I've had the best luck with the pickaxe from the workshop so far. And I believe you can start a tunnel with a spoon, your character just needs to be fully on top of the toilet to start the hole. It's kind of hit-and-miss on the placement when you go to right click.

Well if you think about it.. recruiting other inmates as your 'followers' (as you currently can) technically is your gang. What would be neat would be to be able to do everything the other gangs do (capture zones for example), and to have special abilities as the leader (via spending rep points, of ...

Yes we need a button to skip lockup.

The devs stated an earlier alpha video that there is no real order for the sorting or color coding. I'm sure this is something that will be changed as we get closer to the official release.

My issue turned out to be that I started on a large map, which is pretty broken due to TimeWarpFactor. Needs rise and are satisfied at double rate, which means by the time they wake up they are pissed off about a max HYGIENE need and try to escape. If I wake them earlier to avoid it (at 4), then th...

Once you find it out, be sure to tick the "this is me" box in-game and it will always highlight it green on the list.

Not the solution you're looking for but when I have a very unruly inmate like that who just simply never quits (one who might have ~100 years on his sentence and kills everyone), I put an armed guard near his cell and wait for him to kick off... then go 'weapons free' and.. well you know the rest. R...

You don't need death row cells to intake death row prisoners, but you'll need those cells to house them. Death row inmates do not appear every day... maybe every ~5-6 days, and only 1 at a time. You'll just have to wait. But just some advice, they don't leave their cells so make sure they have every...

This problem plagued me for so damn long, I stopped playing the game due to frustration. I made a bug report and a while later somebody explained why it happens. There is a variable in your save file called 'TimeWarpFactor', which is applied to medium and large prisons. It's explained by PeterF in m...

Just keep a K9 patrol in the visitation room near the door where the prisoner will exit.

Yeah this will generally only happen when you have only 1 or 2 doors between your inmate's area and the outside world. Try adding more, and always use road gates. Remember how one of the devs explained it in a video. Any time there is a direct path for a prisoner to escape, they will go into escape ...

I'm guessing, but I don't think that will change anything.

I had a similar problem with the prison i'm currently playing, and I solved it by making the accessible area near the wall indoors instead of open (eg. build a foundation)..

I started playing again recently and these are some things I think would be helpful for gameplay: General: ⋅ Click the 'dismantle utility' button multiple times to cycle between which utility will be dismantled. -- This would be helpful for where utilities cross and you don't want to destr...

It helps if you tell us the problem you're experiencing.

If you really want to donate.. I would suggest buying gift copies of the game for friends. They'll play it, maybe they tell other people.. and so on. Word of mouth is powerful.
