I like this mod but I have fought and fought with getting shops to work in my prison and I finally found that my shop never worked because my prisoners were using the snack machines and drinks to satisfy their luxary need. as soon as I disabiled the mod prisoners started to use the shop. is this intended? I mean I can see the drink machines and snacks full filling food and hydration need but with them doing Lux as well it destroys the shop mechanic. Is there a way to change that? or is it intended?

Don't know if this falls inside the idea of your mod, but would be nice to have so gang members who have completed the gang reform automatically changes to protective custody. Have tried finding a mod that does this but didn't find any.

How did you improve tasers?

@whocare9999 I haven't played the jungle DLC yet. Unfortunately, because of this, I do not know what items have been added.
If you add me as a friend and forward the items, I can add them.

This mod is currently doesn't work with the new Jungle update. The canteen bamboo bench, food serving thing and bamboo table doesn't register with the room

@cowsupergaming Thanks for your comment. It is mainly meant to make Prison Architect more fun. I haven't tested this mod anymore with the new releases, so I hope everything still works properly. If there's anything I'd love to hear about it.
cowsupergaming Mar 12, 2023 @ 10:27am 
sound like a DLC but free? YAY super cool
Punaise  [author] Dec 28, 2022 @ 8:06am 
@Juplika Glad you found it. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Juplika Dec 28, 2022 @ 5:41am 
@Punaise Thank you. I've found it :)
Punaise  [author] Dec 28, 2022 @ 1:28am 
@Juplika in the build menu there is a Death Row leather, If the prisoner is in a cell, put the letter there. If you need more help, please add me to your friend list.

How do you upgrade someone to Death Row?

It's pretty good

how do i up prisoners to death row?

I disagree with the needles and lighters setting off metal detectors. and they dont train dogs for detecting booze. most cell phones would set off a metal detector though.

Glad to hear the issue is resolved, it's just that the "Officer" thing threw me off...
accusedauthor Oct 9, 2022 @ 6:33am 
the problem is fixed so its fine
accusedauthor Oct 9, 2022 @ 6:32am 
No i mean the gang officer like Lieutenants
Nobunaga877 Oct 6, 2022 @ 8:16am 
@Accusedwriter What do you mean by "officer"? Do you mean the Guard rank? Because that comes with the Free For Life DLC\update.
...Or do you mean something else?
accusedauthor Oct 5, 2022 @ 6:30am 
but i never saw one
accusedauthor Oct 5, 2022 @ 5:17am 
i have a question about the gangs DLC, how does an officer get elected? i have a leader for a gang and stuff
MajkStone Oct 2, 2022 @ 2:11am 
Your change to remove dormitory from materials also seems to have fixed it.
MajkStone Oct 2, 2022 @ 2:06am 
Just modifying it per my suggestion seemed to work for me. I appreciate the offer for contributor but I do this for a living and just want to play some games in my downtime :)

Great mod though!
Punaise  [author] Oct 1, 2022 @ 5:33am 
@MajkStone first of all, thank you for your message. I have just removed the dormitory from materials.txt. Can you test if things are better now?

Quite another point. If you guys like to help improve this mod, I can also add you as contributors.
I haven't really played the new update yet, so there are probably more things that can be improved.
Together, we can do more than alone.
If you are interested please add me as a friend.
MajkStone Oct 1, 2022 @ 4:47am 
For the Dormitory, the latest patch appears to have a new property, RequiresSector. The mod is missing that and may be what is causing strange issues with dorm detection. (The dorms deployment tends to extend past the dorm room and into the hallways after the mod is installed). I am doing more testing to see if I can fix it.
Punaise  [author] Sep 27, 2022 @ 8:53am 
@DrunkCoWBoy thanks for your comment.
True indeed. I adjusted everything a bit.
I have quite a lot of hours in the game. And I tweaked everything I ran into especially after playing for a bit longer.
DRunkCoWBoy Sep 27, 2022 @ 1:28am 
nevermind I found it. I woudlnt call 20 to 35 a slight bit stronger. I felt like the guards were to OP with this mod so I opened it up.
DRunkCoWBoy Sep 27, 2022 @ 1:25am 
BEGIN Object

These were your guard edits i assume. Can you give me the vanilla values for movespeed and toughness, please.
accusedauthor Sep 26, 2022 @ 9:55am 
also nevermind nothing is outdated i talked to another mod dev he explained me some sutff
accusedauthor Sep 26, 2022 @ 9:54am 
alr
Punaise  [author] Sep 26, 2022 @ 9:15am 
@Accusedwriter thanks for your comment. Please don't immediately shout that a mod is outdated. Just add me as a friend and tell me exactly what's going on. I'll be happy to take a look at the problem.
accusedauthor Sep 22, 2022 @ 6:22am 
heyo the mod is outdated dorms are always grouped
BaronFlea Sep 14, 2022 @ 12:02pm 
(frenchy over here ? ^^)
Punaise  [author] Sep 14, 2022 @ 11:49am 
@JKRAZY and @Bruce Wayne

thanks for your response. I am very curious what exactly is going wrong. Is this mod at the top of the mod list? You may also post questions like this in the BUG thread. I would love to get in touch with you guys, can you add me to your friends list?
JKRAZY Sep 13, 2022 @ 10:37am

Punaise  [author] Sep 8, 2022 @ 10:52am 
@tcha90914 thanks for you comment. Can you add me to your friends list, I am very curious where it goes wrong.
Mystic_Fire95 Sep 7, 2022 @ 10:49am 
Apparently I have invisible guards when I'm using it
Punaise  [author] Sep 6, 2022 @ 9:38am 
@son1C thank you for you comment!
son1C Sep 6, 2022 @ 8:36am 
This mod is god tier. Thank you so much!
Mr.Wu Sep 4, 2022 @ 1:34am 
wow,that a wonderful mod
Punaise  [author] Sep 3, 2022 @ 12:16pm 
@Fennec Master

Thank you for your message. There have been improvements, not all of which have been mentioned.

Zones are better. Piling up laundry as been solved.
And my opinion is that the vending machines and other machines should work.
Why else would I put them there?
In the beta version i added an option to reset stuck prisoners.

You can see the difference by playing for a while without the mod and then with the mod.

@XJJAM thanks for your comment. I really appreciate your reactions.
XJJAM Aug 20, 2022 @ 7:01am 
This also seems to fix an issue with mail satchels not being delivered. This issue has been bugging me for a long time. Great Mod!!
Punaise  [author] Aug 19, 2022 @ 7:44am 
@Saul Goodman thanks for your comment.

I will include this in the next update.
I still have to test a few things and then it can go live.
Tovarisch Morton Aug 19, 2022 @ 7:30am 
I love the mod, it has been very useful, however I accidentally placed a death row letter somewhere and I cannot remove it and it will glitch staff until they are moved by another staff member which is resulting in constant managing of the area to sack and rehire guards elsewhere along with other staff. Perhaps considering adding a way to remove death row letters or if you can help in any way I'd be grateful.

My only problem with the mod, the rest is GREAT!
