[Apokaladle]

Well, I've finally picked this up. Always glad to play a good DF-inspired game. My first prison's come to a quick and ignomonious end as I apparently neglected to fence in the yard. As soon as I figure out how to lay foundations without tearing down half of my existing prison, I'm sure I'll have even more fun.

[Descan]

Foundations connecting to any previous foundations (fully constructed or otherwise merely planned/building) will destroy the wall of that connecting portion.

You can fix this by going to materials and manually building a wall where you want it to be after the foundation-structures have been fully built.

No, only overlapping foundations will destroy walls. Put two foundations touching (but not overlapping), and they'll respect walls. You might need to extend one wall or the other to do this for odd-shapes however.

[Descan]

I could have sworn that a few times where I had foundations touching-but-not-overlapping an already built structure, it destroyed the wall between them. I could be mis-remembering.

I DO know that if you put two non-built foundations touching-but-not-overlapping, when the building is constructed, there won't be a wall between the two.

[Aklyon]

Yeah, there is that second one. First one only happens of you draw over the existing wall though.

[Graknorke]

In my first play-around with the new release I made a prison that can exist in permanent lockdown. Tazers and the suppression from armed guards work wonders.

[Yolan]

Sweet. I've been refreshing their page all day.

[nenjin]

Another brilliant update. The regime-by-prisoner-type is much appreciated.

If you didn't watch the whole video, they announced that Alpha 22 will be nothing but bug fixes. Which, after 21 alphas, I feel like it the right move.

[Tobel]

I'm still really hoping for either a bunkbed system or a Z-level option for prisons, although I imagine adding another floor will require a lot of code time. Perhaps they could create "blocks" that represent two floors but don't require more coding.

[10ebbor10]

I doubt they're going to make multiple Z-levels. It's a complete recode, not on the feature list, and might confuse people.

[LordSlowpoke]

it'd be... somewhat interesting, though

i imagine a towering donut of prison surrounding a fuckhuge yard with prisoners on the top floor managing to get like 5 minutes out of two hours due to pathing time

Elevators Teleport pads every nth cell?

[miauw62]

I just got this from a steam sale and i have no idea what im doing aaaaaaaa

[LordSlowpoke]

you build a prison

so einfach ist das

[BigD145]

Remember not to feed them or give them beds. They've been bad people, afterall.
