The Snitch Sorter

Any plans of fixing this mod for the new update?

I wish the game had an automated way of changing prisoners to Protective custody, I guess this is that :)

Yeah Im doing it cuz I dont think is ''fair''
if someone Protected assassinate an guard, have guns, tried to escape an things like it so, for me if they want to be there they need to deserve.

Thats is why Im doing it manually but want it auto like others securitys

Prison Architect WIKIpedia: Supermax: "Prisoners of this category can be transferred into your Prison, (as of "The Slammer" Update) and used to be designated MANUALLY on an individual basis only" Protected: "Prisoners of this category cannot be transferred into your Prison, and instead must be designated manually on an individual basis." --- if no Patch has changed that behaviour, your policy will never override these two rules and so I think it will not automatically change this status.!!!! --- the only thing you could check is , if the snitch sorter is in a place where it willreach again the prisoner who has been marked by the policy as max-security and then it will turn back into protected because he still has the snitch/law enforcement tag. If thats not the case then its the gamerules as the wiki says I guess.

I think protected can only be changd manually - if the snitch sorter marks someone protevted he will stay protected until you manually change him to maxx security. same goes for supermax!

I have an question.
I put in my rules if some protected prisoner assassinate someone he go to max security but even if he do it, he didnt auto change how I fix it?

For me it still works - Although I never tried to connect it to any timer -Why would you do that? The function is that it automatically makes prisoners into "protected"(yellow) status- so simply set up a protected cell, install this thing in the reception room and watch the magic happen!

Does this mod work anymore? I can't connect it to a door timer. When I try to, the snitch sorter disappears as if it can't be connected to.

To solve the button overlap simply edit %localappdata%\Introversion\Prison Architect\mods\562914620\data\research.txt

Change X to 400
Change Y to 480
Save & exit the file.
Exit and relaunch your game, issue solved.


This will place the button above Legal but Below Maitenance.

If you don't like the placement experiment for yourself.

It would be nice if you could move the research area, cause it is overlapping with a base game research. Not too much of a problem, I can just turn off the mod, then turn it back on after the base research is done, but it is a bit of a pain.
