Pawn not suppressing slaves
So i got a bunch of slaves that have low suppression, but my pawns never suppress them despite Wardening being their top priority for my researchers. They instead doing deep ground scan instead of suppressing my slaves, so i had to manually suppress them which is a pain. Can someone figure out why my colonists wont automatically suppress my slaves

EDIT: My pawn now seems to unable to suppress them, even by manually. I tried to suppress the slave with my best social pawn, but the moment i right click a pawn, theres no option for suppressing? Seems like a bug to me

get your slaves their work propper attire... a nice slave body strap and a collar.

also give them something to be affraid of... terror statues, skull spikes.. what ever you prefer.
(excellent marble terror statues are Art your Colonists can admire for btw.)

with all those encouraging objects and requirements met you won't have any supression issues anymore...

Sorry. I don't know how to suppress that way. I had my first slave recently and I executed a prisoner which pushed suppression to 100% and I never had to worry about them again.

simply put, the slave collar and body strap apparel prevents supression from falling while the statues and various buildings give a bonus when supressing a slave.

once at 100% spression with the two cloth items it will stay there... as a bonus.. Colonists with the Masochist Trait like wearing this kind of clothing as well.

Suppressing a slave has a fairly long cooldown, might even be once a day, if you don't use slave straps/collars then your wardens aren't going to be able to maintain their suppression levels unless they have moderately good social skill. You might have a situation where your wardens can suppress a slave by 15% per day while their suppression drops by 20% per day, meaning their suppression level is just always going to be low without the correct slave gear. At lower slave suppression levels it drops less, so a poorly skilled warden might be able to maintain around 15-30% slave suppression. Throw a slave collar on them though and the issue will probably go away.
