Can't tell which guard has which key

[Hank]

Is there any way to tell which guard has which key? I'm not talking about when you just boot up the file, I mean in the middle of me trying to escape. I need a red key and I dont know which guard has it

Beat up the guards and learn who has what key by their name. Each guard carries one of the specific 5 keys! It doesn't change as well. So it will always be the same one with the same key.

If the prison has a lot of guards you're pretty much going to have to do what Jack the Ripper suggested. To make it easier, you could wake up, beat up a guard, check it off your list if they don't have the key, then reset and do it again. Works great with a molten hot cocoa.

However, if the amount of guards is relatively smallish, there's a way to narrow it down. The first guards, the ones at roll call, do NOT have the red key. The one talking I believe always has the Yellow Key and the other two have the Orange and Purple keys. Just process of eliminating the guards left.

I have learned to give each guard a name which has the first letter corresponding to which color key he has. Unfortunately for this prison I had to just do method of elimination.

I had tried this same strategy when trying to escape Stalag Flucht (already escaped). Thankfully there aren't many guards in that prison

You are going to love this! At the naming screen, the FIRST five guards have these keys from left to right. 1) Yellow - name him yellow, 2) Orange - name him orange, 3) Purple - name him purple,
4) Red - name him red, 5) Green - name him green. Trust me, this works, it never changes. I am on HMP-Irongate and it works on every prison, even DLC and Custom! You will LOVE knowing which guards have the keys! Of course if you want to make this hard, try naming each guard a combo of the letters QWERTYUIOP - it makes it impossible to remember names!

Already knew this. I just get creative by naming the yellow guy Yuri, or the green guy Garrett.
