whats the point

Postby dibsdrisc » Sat Jun 08, 2013 8:18 pm

sorry but what is the point of playing this when they wont even sort there washing out due to getting stuck in the middle of the room... they just keep rioting as they have no clothes ...[ and wont clean no clothes so they stay angry all the time!

The point right now, during the Alpha stages, is to give developers ideas on how to improve the game, as well as participating in a giant bug report game.
So...yeah. Expect bugs and game balance issues such as with the laundry.
The point right now is to find the problems.
Playing? Of course! But just don't expect it to be a full game right now.

The clothes issue is annoying. Fortunately I managed to get it working but for now we will just have to deal with it. It is an alpha after all.

It took me ages to figure out the laundry issue. In case anyone is still looking for the solution to the blocked pick up dirty uniform job you have to demolish the wall under the dirty uniform (and potentially the ones around it too). Of course, if they're so angry that they won't work anymore there's not much you can do except kill your prisoners/let them escape and get new ones or start a new prison.

Other than that though, the game seems pretty stable and reasonably free of game-breaking bugs.

I... wow, that's one way to approach it I guess.

i see how that would work but i have 4 wash rooms and they do it in all of them! and only the wash room its happened once or twice in the workshop but i just cant seem to get any of the workers even slightly happy while they just wont wash !

p.s alpha mode so true but if you have watched any of marks and Chris's updates then you would have seen the wash room working perfect ?

Currently I'm between building rooms and hoping that they work correctly and making sure all the other needs are really low so people don't kick off as much.

Other option for now would be to edit the save i guess as a last resort to remove stuck uniforms, baskets that phased through a wall to outside the prison and satisfying the need it it's not working at all.

The phasing through the wall one is quite annoying as they try to go and collect it but as soon as they're outside they try to escape
Easy enough solution to that though as you can build a double gates enterance way to your prison and assign it as staff only
