What to do with prisoners?

[Impatient]

So I captured a full merchant base. What shall I do with 8 prisoners now?

I built a prison, which satisfies all their needs. The have to live of bio matter, but they have a window, a juke box, a gaming console and separate toilet and dormitory. And the prison is zoned properly.

And next?

Btw. they navy inspected my ship several times and the got really pissed of, when they discovered a prison full of merchant sailors (-30 relations). I don't know how long i can keep this up.

Create a space for prisoners with the floor marked with everything they spawn on your ship and take it there

Yes, give them a prisoner area with a place to eat, something to get food from, beds and a toilet.

Then either sell them back to other ships from their faction, or try to recruit them.

So It wasn’t until I hit the btw part that I started cracking up

Since the rep bonuses for returning prisoners is so low, most people just end up using them for target practice because the devs still haven't bothered to add a method of training with weapons. But for real, where's that holodeck Ready Player One VR rig?

Not just weapons training, but juicy medical training from patching up the ones who don't die. Unless you start with or find a 6+ doctor it takes a long time to train up.

Also good for the composter, probably the best use imo
