I LOVE escape mode

[EtherDragon98926]

It really helps me look at my prison from a security perspective. My first real prison, I thought ok - how hard is it to escape with all these guards and metal detectors and stuff - surely since no NPC has escaped it's hard, right?

I struggled for a while to figure out the rules of escape mode, failed at inciting a riot, or finding anything useful to dig a tunnel (and hold on to it for long, except for a glitch which I'm sure is a bug...) and then I noticed the front door while being watched by a lot of people, wasn't secure at all. It was a single gate to the open road (no road-access gates or anything).

So I just waited for visiting hours and WHAM bolted out when the gate opened. I single point in Quick was all it took.

Needless to say, the front entrance of that prison has been much improved.
