I have a downed enemy and I can't capture him. it says I need an enclosed prison marked bed. how do I mark a bed for prisoners?I built a little room just for him and yet I still can't capture him

You got make a jail cell/prison Make a room that is just for them then mark a bed by clicking on it, and selecting prisoner, it turns entire room into a prison cell. For best prison you want table, some chairs, and a game like chess or horseshoe pole so they don't go ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ crazy in the prison if you are trying to recruit them. But note each faction has its own enemy list you can see in the faction tab so lets say you put a tribal in with a space pirate, there is gonna be some prison fights going down so you need a seperate cell for pirates since they pretty much at war with every one.

In a pinch I throw a bed in my rec room before I had a prison made, I had space for a pool table so put a bed there made it a prison to get a nice downed raider with good stats a home before she bleed to death outside my base. You also got mindfull of the dirt as they will be taken to the jail you make wounded and by defualt you doc is told to not use any medicine on them, I swap it second they are on the bed to medical herbs but had a couple die of infection becuase the new prison was full of rubble and a hot mess breeding ground for infection on their wounds.

You can also make a prison bed marked medical at same time so could make a seperate prison hospital with only prison medical beds so its nice and clean with sterile tiles for newly caped prisoners to get medical treatment then warden should escort them out to the main jail after that.
