It wouldn't necessarily have to be wi-fi, for specifically that reason. You could have the whole system old-school wired with fixed user terminals placed around the prison (probably not in the cell blocks), which would stop prisoners just magically fucking everything up from the safety of their cells with mobiles/wireless tech. They'd have to sneak to a staff only area and then unleash their hax magic to dick with things. That way, if that happens, it's because your guards aren't up to scratch which is more fair imo

Well, after re-starting about eight times I finally learned how to make myself solvent. The prisons name is "Cheapside". I thought it was appropriate given its modest goal. So far though my prison pop fluctuates only as high as the high twenties. Still, I am nearly up to day thirty, and no riots or escapes. I might try to make a maximum security wing later. Any suggestions on how I should handle them?

Also, I am up for possible challenges if anybody wants to play competitively. For example, beginning from scratch and only accepting maximum security prisoners. Maybe with restrictions on workshops.

Wings are problematic if you want separate dining and cleaning and everything, ie them being self sufficient. It doesn't work well least I checked. You pretty much have to have a mixed cantina and only one cleaning/laundry room.

[Yolan]

No kidding. So they wont route to more than one dining area? Letting a hundred plus prisoners use a single shared area seems dangerous to me.

If that is the case perhaps I can still deal with it by separating the dining hall into separate walled parts though. Ditto with yards.

[BigD145]

If you change them to the green/red/white zones they'll just stop obeying the zoning. I tried before dogs, but I don't remember it being fixed. You'll end up with mixed prisoners in all your zones. Extra laundry rooms will just be ignored. The only thing I've seen respected is cell blocks. Max security prisoners are just bragging rights anyway. Easier to anger and such. No change in income per prisoner.

Eventually it'll probably work, but for now it does not.

They do, Actually, I'm pretty sure that the movie is a direct reference to these guys

Is there anyway to deal with construction workers getting caught on doors. When my prisoners first show up and the doors start closing workers start to get hung up in doorways. Things look open but they get stuck on the doors. I can't figure out how to get them loose so I wind up sacking them.

[10ebbor10]

Force the door open?

Or hire guards, who should open them.

Good on you.  I'd fire any employee incapable of figuring out how doors work too.

I've got guards and the door is open. The worker gets hung up in the open door, right on the corner. They just will not move. It's lead to me hiring several extra workers at the start to try and build absolutely everything I can before prisoners show up because this bug starts wiping out my workforce fast once the doors start to open and close.
