Prison Planet
Your intrepid crew, (4,5,6), are sent down with ample supplies to build a prison facility to house 10 prisoners. Prisoners must be kept comfortable, fed, safe from attack AND secure from escape for the duration of their sentences.

Possible on-going scenario.

Would be a nice scenario.

My take though :Prisoners should entertain the guards inside a thunderdome. +18 morale.

Imho would been more fun with a crashed prison ship and your survivors is just undesired people that want nothing more than off each other. -)

Fascinating idea. If you're landing with nothing but your supplies, the prisoners would likely be cuffed then? Unable to perform most tasks I imagine. You could have the option to uncuff them but then the game would roll some dice with some factors like safety and trust and all that to decide whether they run.

Could be a really fun scenario.

would be a nice concept for a scenario, could be prison as you mention or a group of scientists finding a cure for something or similar.

You are given 6 months to get the place ready. Prisoners arrive after that randomly via drop-ship and do not have the same sentences.

Crew is paid as a unit for each prisoner. Payment depends on quality of prisoner, (difficulty scale), quality of prison, (Blackouts, breaches, escapes), and prisoner term. Accumulation of sufficient credits can purchase rare researches or material.

would make use of the prison doors as well :-)

Actually could be a winning condition, starting group of 6, once you have held all the prisoners for the duration of their penalty they ship of, maybe dropping in every 10 day or so giving you 10 days to prepare for the each new prisoner...

Sure, not bad! I am wondering if a mod can be made for this.

I like the idea of defending from both inside and outside.

yeah its kinda like taming but with a purpose.

I'm liking where this scenario is going. Lots of fascinating possibilities.
Thank you for the suggestion!

So what happens if they are not kept comfortable? Do they riot? They try to escape? Cause to me just playing nurse for a few convicts does not sound very interesting.

It depends on the prisoner.

e.g. You have a political prisoner who is the third cousin of the Emperor. (Or whatever). The reward would be substantial if their prison term were successfully completed in comfort. On the other hand, if you also had a violent prisoner who wants nothing more to do than murder royalty, both conditions could be quite challenging to accomplish.

And sure, they can riot, escape, or just cause mayhem. It would depend on the quality of the 'guests'. Trying to keep a handle on the prisoners while keeping the place free of bugs is the big picture.
