IMO the problem is that reform programs like group therapy, education, personal therapy, ... are under the work categorie.

We need a database for prisoners with all sort of sortable stats: - needs - served sentence - sentence left - time to next parole - traits - security category - reoffending chance - misconduct - ... sickness could be included in this database, to allow players to quickly find them. On a sidenote we ...

Prisoners that got infected and healed, should be immune to the infection.

I think prisoners only get food in cell or solitary if you have set them to permanent. They wil get their food when it's eating time in the regime, so they won't get any food when you don't have it in the regime.

I agree with Taxen2. Having traits for guards would cause to much micromanagement. I agree with having guards arrive via car when hired to prevent guard spamming at riots. I also wouldn't mind guards having some needs like bladder/bowel, food, sleep to replace the tired system. Although having guard...

I think a better option would be that healing by a doctor costs money.
So feeding your prisoners cooked food, should be a lot cheaper than having them healed by doctors all the time.

Great idea, just like it is done for real life traffic: "local traffic only"

Path finding is closely linked to assigning jobs based on proximity. Since they are working on the latter, it is likely that they are also improving the former. (at least I hope so)

Why are you making it so complicated? BTW, CO2 can perfectly be used for small scale solid fire extinguishing. Especially if somebody clothes are on fire, you would prefer to use CO2. CO2 is often not so usefull against liquids though, because if you can't extiguish it entirely, it will catch fire a...

Some system would be a great addition though. Especially behavioral therapy by a psychologist should be able to reduce the severety of bad traits.
It would be even better if prolonged drug use, could cause bad traits like volatile.

Do you have other games on that computer? Does any of them show any problems? Because this could be a hardware failure.

Are you sure your prisoners have any money to spend?

I agree, but I think the developers left this bug in, or maybe even made it intentionel, to make testing of the game easier. In the latest alpha video, you can see de programmer skip through the hours to go to the next day (it only changes the hour, it's not a super fast forward), to test and show t...
