No Teacher
Hello
I'm having a problem with some of my Programs in my current prison.
This is not about the education programs where the teacher comes from the outside, my problem s that I have a fully staffed prison, but for some odd reason I get some programs telling me that they have no teacher (Tazer rollous, parole, workshop).
What's even weirder, it's that I do have some trained prisoners for workshop, so this problem happened after saving and loading my game another day.

Any thoughts?

I've found that filling up your programs again after a group of inmates have completed them is a bit buggy. That goes for both enroling new inmates in the programs or getting a teacher available. What helped in my case is that I click the reschedule button every night during sleep time, this moves some of the programs around within the schedule and seems to re-evaluate the need for participants and teachers.

Hope this helps.

Oddly enough, seems my problem was that, somehow, having the offices as MinSec only made them unavailable (even if the required offices where in shared space... and I couldn't even get the taser certification class without this!)

Interesting, so what you're saying is that if you set an office, for example that of a psychiatrist, to MinSec, the teacher inside somehow inherits this property and refuses to give classes in a space marked as shared?

Didn't try it on the psychiatrist, but it seems to be the case with Warden (parole), Chief (parole), and Foreman (Workshop Training)

If you're refering to a teacher for the Foundation Education and General Education programs, make sure your inmates have a work slot of at least 3 hours long since those programs need that time.

Ohh, that must be the problem then, thank you very much!

This still not fixed?

I got the problem mentioned: teachers dont exist (tazer and workshop) if you set your offices to min sec access. And I need that, I dont want my high sec prisoners to have access to office rooms...

You don't have a Foundation Education class started... and you need a 3-hour continuous block of Work time for the class.

The teacher will come on his own from outside, he does not have an office in your prison.

As for the offices, set all except Psychiatrist Offices to Staff Only. No need to let prisoners in the warden's office EVER. The janitors will keep them clean.

As for "teachers don't exist"...Security Chief teaches the Taser class, check your Program Schedule to see that it's started and scheduled (early in the morning usually). Foreman teaches the Workshop classes.

I know it all. Am talking about the bug: If you set your offices to min sec access you instantly have no teachers for workshop and tazer programs. Surprised it was not fixed yet...

Has it been reported on the bug tracker? If it has have you selected to support the bug report. If it hasn't been reported then have you reported it yourself? They can only fix the bugs that they know about.

I suppose, since it have not been fixed yet, noone cares, including devs. And if devs dont care, why should I?
