What Increases the need for spoons?

Postby kyle23011 » Wed Mar 05, 2014 1:29 am

Why do prisoners want spoons so much? Every time they leave the canteen about 30-50 of them get caught with contraband , can someone please explain why the demand is so high?

Using your previous topic, and the image you posted there: viewtopic.php?f=42&t=47624

The reason why so many of them are stealing spoons is because your Danger Level is too high. When the danger level rises, Weaker Prisoners want to escape because they don't want to get injured or killed in any fight or riot that may occur. Spoons are categorized as Tools within the game and can aid prisoners in digging Escape Tunnels.

Reduce the danger level, and they'll steal less spoons. Find out what's causing the danger level to rise by hovering your mouse over the exclamation icon on the UI. Green items make the prison less dangerous, red items cause the danger to go up, and white items are neutral. (This can only be done if you have researched "Security" from Bureaucracy)

Hope this helps!

To add to the previous comment, danger levels tends to be relatively high when people enter the canteen, as inmates are hungry, and so they are more likely to steal stuff from canteens than from other areas.

Pudding.

The single biggest factor that increases the need for spoons is serving pudding in your cafeteria.

Objection!

Spoons are optional for pudding consumption, as demonstrated by this excerpt from episode 340 of the anime One Piece:

In real life spoons actually are used to make tunnels to escape.
I'd imagine that's why, I'll find spoons and holes occasionally in a cell or a hole cell block.
