Can transport incapacitated refugee as prisoner in caravan?

[Imhotep]

I did the incapacitated refugee mission. One can rescue or capture the refugee.

If the refugee is rescued, they will go their own way when healed and the mission is for no gain, right?

To capture the refugee, one needs an enclosed room with prisoner bed. Although I had a bedroll, I didn't bring materials to build a room, and it took so long to try and build one at the location that the refugee died from their injuries.

If I had brought some materials to build a prisoner room and healed the refugee, would I have been able to transport them back to my base as a prisoner in a caravan, or would I have had to try and recruit them at the original location, something that might have taken some time to accomplish?

There is a mod called imprisonment on the go, might want to look at that

I cut down a few trees and make a 1x2 room with 1 door. Put a sleeping spot in that room and make it a prisoner bed. Use the "capture" option on the refugee. As soon as they are placed in the room, you can use the world map option to 'reform caravan' and you can head back right away. The prisoner will be tended to while traveling.

I wish rescueing the refugee would make them join you automatically, but the only sure way to get them in your colony is to capture them, bring them home, and 'convince' them to join.

They do join automatically I think...

Not all the time.

Sometimes they just wander off.

They seem follow the same script as the dropped ship refugee, but maybe with a lower % to join you, or perhaps it is because at this time, you have already had a lot of colonists so their chance is lower.

I've not had it happen but others in these kinds of threads have confirmed that they got the prisoner to join them after healing.


Otherwise, the main way you will get this person is that you must heal him first so he doesn't die, then as he gets up to walk away, capture him. By this time, you should have a prison already. After that, you can leave the area and begin recruiting like normal back at home.
