Introversion

I would really like those guard towers in the game, but I'm not much of a programmer.

I am however a graphic designer, so I did the graphics... Hope someone else will make the mod.

What exactly is it that you want a guard tower to do?

Great graphics btw. It's exactly what I envision a Prison Architect guard tower would be.

Maybe a guard tower is the only place where prison gates (you know, the big ones on the road) can be opened automatically from, if there's no guard tower next to it a guard has to do it manually

Excellent graphic design. Waiting for programmer to take over the idea and make proper guard tower

I'm busy working on this right now, but I'm not sure whether I will actually succeed.

I'll send you my files when I get it somewhat working

Sounds great

I wanted to take this up, but I don't understand how someone can be "working on this" if we don't even know what the thing is supposed to do.

I really like the idea but I don't see how we can implement a proper use for it. The only thing I could imagine if it would increase the line of sight so fights would be noticed but fights are noticed regardsless if they are outside and I don't see why you would want a guard tower inside

That's exactly what I was thinking, but maybe it could also increase the range that an armed guard could fire his weapon or call out to make the prisoner stop.

interesting idea but as for most ideas right now I don´t see a way of making this work right now. The only thing you could do is make a new entity go there with a sniper rifle and station him there but even then I doubt whether the entity would act as a guard and shoot or act as a cook and panic

I put a second thought in it and it might actually work, sirNoolas, how are things working out for you?

Well, the other repliers in this topic are right in the fact that most ideas would'nt work as of yet.

I myself was thinking in similar directions about maybe a sniper with a bigger circle of visibility or something to do with road gates.

I was thinking of picking this up as a practice project, and as soon as more modding features are implemented I can test them on this mod.

If possible yes! I've only just started to program games and mods, so all help is welcome!
