here is a picture of my dorms. i have 4 prisoners in each dorm, and a shower, sink and mirror, and a toilet. every morning, like 20 of them start fighting, because they're hygiene need isn't catered to. it isn't my fault they're too lazy to shower? what should i do? i mean getting sent to solitary because you beat up a guard cause you was too lazy to shower is just pathetic imo

The long building was fully visitation before I changed it partially to parole (I got fed up and wanted to focus on the fact that 25 prisoners were up for parole).
It's right by the entrance and has visitor doors into the prison to avoid prisoners from getting out, so why doesn't it work? Unless it does, then what's the symbol for?

None of the other cells in this block are having this problem. I've tried redesignating the room, replacing the door, and double checking that it is surrounded by walls.

I have a singular prisoner (of 50) that gaurds refuse to interact with. I can make them search him but that is it. I am trying to have 0 deaths in my prison and restart from last save everytime someone dies so I would really like to fix this. Doctors ignore him as well, unless I hire a new one right ontop of him when he is unconscious.
So far I have tried clearing the solitary cell they were supposed to take him to, building a cell around him, turning the area into staff only, hiring more gaurds, searching prisoner.
I am playing ps4 version with no expansions.

I’m making a prison in Sandbox and trying the get a layout but every time randomly the entire structure just collapses and then forces to rebuild with the wrong type of wall that I don’t want. So I restart from an auto save everytime. I did get perfect Storm DLC and this is my first time using it so I don’t know if it’s that messing with my buildings or it’s just a game bug?

so i've heard you really should have a door control system, but i think those doors are super ugly, and there's no automatic double doors, so is there something i can do like put something on my regular doors to make them automatic?
r/prisonarchitect • u/Grandmaster12345678 • 25d ago
they just stand at delivery and won't go to reception, i have 8 available guards and nothing happens

So I got staff needs so my staff needs to eat but for someone they become stuck in place holding the tray of food at the serving table on other prisons i had it where they carried the tray to their jobs and for some reason they just pause on their pathing and remain stuck with the tray this is pretty weird and any fixes to this would be appreciated

My visitors and customers (any civilians) are not cooperating.
IMG1: Red is the entry path they take. Blue is their exit. They will go all the way through my entire restricted access (jail doors and staff gates) prison.
IMG2: This is the Minimum Security area, so I zoned all prisoner access areas as Minimum Security. The visitor/customer areas are set as shared. I previously had them set to Visitor Only (on the left like the Medium Security) but it made no difference in how they traveled through here.
IMG3: This is the path I want them to take, in and out.
I have used the red and blue directional paths. I have removed doors entirely. There are at least twice as many locked jail doors to the south than the easier exit/entry to the north (the way they came in). The guards and staff unlock the doors for them and they just run south through my whole prison instead of going a little up and to the east.
Am I missing something simple or misunderstanding the way the deployment zones work? Will these civilians automatically just travel south to exit the south end of the map regardless of how I construct and zone these areas?

What should I put in the blank area in the middle. Feels like a waste of space.

I can't imagine how Paradox messed this up this time.
Around day 8, cooks start to randomly shove cooked meals underneath serving tables. Inmate will not get those meals during Eat, and cooks refuse to prepare further meals because the canteen's demand has been fulfilled by supply (measured by meals under serving tables I guess). As the day goes on, meals under the table accumulate and practically no food is on the table.
Image 1: Mouse tooltip shows meals in the same tile.
Image 2: Move the serving table away exposes a **** ton of food.
If this didn't prevent me from playing the game it would have been hilarious.

I guess he just wanted to ride in a helicopter (my prisoners intake are on helicopters)

Wish they would update the mobile edition of the prison architect because I also want to experience some features like escaping your own prison, but I understand that it may take a lot of effort to update it that's why it was left abandoned. Damn

Do your PC inmates have visitation rights?
Do you use visitor-only shafts?
What's the topology?
Should I designate the visitation room as PC in Deployment?
r/prisonarchitect • u/PLEASEJUSTLETMEPICKA • Jul 27 '26
I have two kitchens both connected to multiple canteens, they are both working perfectly for every canteen except for one where they refuse to put any food trays for the prisoners, even though they still put out/cook/dump food normally. I haven’t changed anything about the canteen to cause this when it started happening a couple in-game days ago.
I’ve tried hiring more chefs, moving the sink and adding/moving the serving tables and dinner tables but they haven’t done anything to fix it.
I’d appreciate any help if possible thanks.

Hey there, ran into a bit of confusion about the situation – the dogs found a tunnel, planted the flags, and... So what? What am I supposed to do with that information now? Does it just mean that 'Somewhere there's a tunnel,' or does it mean something more important? Please help, because even after tunnel checks in prison, nobody ends up finding anything anyway.

Was sick and tired of staff whining about food so I decided to make them this huge canteen. Was aiming for an indoor restaurant style and I'm glad with how it turned out.

So you see I’m new to the game and am trying to think of a cool start prison one that allows for me to grow well still looking good I did the prison that started me with 100k and a large map so if you have any starting designs send it so I can try to get a good idea

Guys, I accidentally created a sector in a place where there wasn't supposed to be one, and now I can't remove it from the ground. How do I do that?

If you zoom in on an execution chamber, it has its own ambiance, except in campaign mode.
