Clothing not working

[Firedagger22]

I have a problem. I have told my prisoners to do laundry and they have put the new clothes in the laundry baskets (i have three) but thats it. All my prisoners are complaining they dont have clothes when there sitting in the laundry basket in the laundry room. Ive read they should be put on there beds but they havent been. I also have a washing machine and ironing board

do you have a massive amount of workers (more than 4 or 5?) if so drop the worker numbers down to three or four and boost it back up after someone pushes the basket out of the laundry. There is a major collision issue when they gather in the center which causes all the prisoners not to do anything.

[quote="acegamer08"] you need a lot of work time in your regime (they are pretty slow)....are your cells close to the laundry, or are they far away??? .... the closer the better[/quote] Is 20 tiles ok or too far away?

I have the defualt amount. Is that ok?

[quote="acegamer08"]i'd have to pull up the game and count, but that sounds ok...

the prisoners have to push the carts (very slowly) to the cell block(s)...so i wouldn't put the laundry on the opposite end of the cellblock(s) on the map[/quote] Ok then the furthest cells are 33 away and the closest are 28

Also just some more info for you awesome people trying to help me when I look at the jobs report there isn't one for taking the clothing to there beds. Also you have to go through the canteen to get to the laundry room

its really hard to figure out the reason(s) without pics (or a game save)...your descriptions are helpful...they just might not be enough.

so how many workers do you have again???... i think you commented something about the default amount...which i think is zero, so.............

on the deployment screen, under jobs, when you have the laundry selected, how many orange icons (workers) are there??[/quote] I have two prisoners icons in there but I have prisoners to spare if i need more, also unless they changed the default in Alpha 10 its 8. By the way Im not very good with forums for anything and i can never figure out pictures and stuff so I'll link you to a deviantart (with screenshots on the dA) so you can see for yourself
