Visitor Table vs Visitor Booth

[Mr. Bear]

So, we all know that the booths are safer and prevent contraband from ever happening on a place where a lot of undetectable contraband can be handed. With that said, is there any advantage that can warrant the usefulness of the visitor table?

Well, you can cram a bunch of them into a smaller space, without having to worry about the logistics of separating the visitors and inmates. That being said, I agree with you. I much prefer the separated booths to the common-room tables from versions past.

If you want to really cheeky you can just abandon Visitation alltogether.
A Mail Room will do some work, Phone Booths work really well and are overall way better than Visitation, if you look at the big picture.

Now, that aside:
Visitor Table Advantages

• Satisfies Family Need faster
  
• Freely placeable
  (as opposed to the wall-like use of booths)
  
  Disadvantages:
  
• Need more space per unit
  
• Contraband

It that true? I've suspected it but never verified it. No wonder my Visitor Centers were more successful than my Booth Arrays.

They said so in the Update Video, as far as I remember. I'm not going back to check however, I don't feel invested enough in this.

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=687188634 I feel like I broke the game when I created this format for my visitation.

By using this pattern, I was able to serve more prisoners faster, with family needs and no contraband coming into the prison. This one visitation room serves my prison of around 450 inmates, and the line is nearly gone by lunch time.

I just can't comprehend using normal visitor tables again after doing this (and I think this prison may have used them back before the booth update). FIFO (first in, fast out!)

I noticed the visitation booths can be connected via wires. I'm going on a limb and guessing phone taps can be connected?

You are a way too late on this...

I know the topic is old, but my question is still relevent.
