Prisoner Care

[Darkest King]

I kind-of hope that the prisoner mechanic gets expanded. I'd like to see something like Starbound's tenant system where their happiness (and how much you get paid as a result) goes up in accordance with how well furnished/decorated their accommodations are.

... I just know it feels kind of boring for them to be standing there and a little unbelievable that their misery doesn't passively go up while being permanently locked up in a cage all day...

I think it's more silly that the only way you can keep their misery down is a handful of fish that have a low chance of appearing and have tiny amount of stock at the store.

Default settings are pretty abysmal for that, yeah. That's why when I created my server I bumped up trader stock. lol

Which server setting changes trader stock?

[weirdee]

at some point I'm gonna have to figure out how to mod server settings after the fact lol

If you scroll down to the "Traders" section of server settings when creating a new game with a new ruleset there's an option for 'Stock Multiplier". I set mine up to 3.

"TraderModifiers": {

But they're prisoners, not house-guests.

Right. And I want them to BE house-guests.

Perhaps I should make a suggestion about it!
