Cooks not cooking?
I have everything zoned out properly and all that but for some reason the cooks wont cook food to feed the prisoners, anyone else having this problem or know a fix without making a new map?

Try to remove the kitchen field and replace it. That worked for me

Logistics

I'm seeing this a lot... Did something happen in a recent update? Anywho, like the posters above me said, check your logistics, and re-assign your kichen, failing that:

- Move your stoves and fridges away from the walls. if you put the front of the fridge or stove against the wall then the cooks can't get to them. Stoves are pretty easy to tell where the front is but fridges are a bit tricky.

- Also, if you have mods then try turning them off to see if they are conflicting.

Unlocking Logistics just allows you to see and adjust what's connected to what. Those connections are still there without unlocking Logistics.

This does not matter - you don't need any spaces in your kitchen. I have cookers and fridges stacked together, against walls, with no spaces... and no problems. Not 100% sure about sinks.

Is that your only kitchen/canteen?
RTab May 12, 2015 @ 5:57pm 
Yes
lissa_981 May 12, 2015 @ 6:19pm 
hmm, Have you messed with your deployment at all? Have you tried unzoning your kitchen and canteen, be sure the room counter is on 0 for both then rezoning? You might also lock that jail door open.
