Prison architect layout steam12/17/2022 The fence doesn't need to be around the canteen and cells, but there needs to be no easy gap for a prisoner to just walk to the edge of the map and escape. (Although there is only a fence and a single staff door from freedom!) The prisoners would literally leave their rooms and just walk off the map and escape!Ī simple little fence with a staff door and the area is secure, prisoners can't just run away and the game accepts they can properly access the canteen. In the above image there is no fence or wall anywhere else on the map. The game is actually advising you that there is no SECURE access to that canteen. Often you'll start a prison, build your rooms and when you start your canteen, all your cells suddenly end up stating that there is no canteen available to use! You can plainly see there is one, but it refuses to let anyone eat there!īelow, there is clearly a kitchen, clearly a canteen and two cells that both refuse to accept they can use the canteen. You can also use this menu to just make walls outside.īy using this menu, you can create 4 walls and a door - this won't be indoors, the area won't have a roof or a floor, but you can use it for partitioning off areas such as this storage shed (which may be a little too small for all my workmen to stand in.)Īs this isn't a room, you will NOT be able to use it as a cell or any other indoor type. I can choose to partition this room up via the Walls and Doors menu as follows.īy adding a few blocks of wall and a door, my Workmen will turn the one large room into two smaller rooms.īy continuing this process, you can make more smaller rooms inside the larger room - remember though that some rooms have a minimum size and not to make the rooms too small. My prison cell I created earlier is very big. This does not make a room, it does not add a ceiling, they are literally walls to either fence an area off, or to partition up a room. (Also a second menu to allow you to select a door!) This menu contains options for walls, similar to the 'Foundations' menu. The other method of building is via the Walls and Doors menu. (That little bag of rubbish left behind will eventually be taken away by your workmen!) This room can then go on to be zoned as an 'indoor room' from the 'Rooms' menu (such as a cell) and it's items added to it: (If not, you will need to add your own lights as the room will be dark) If you have the 'Automatic Lights' option turned on in the 'Foundations' menu, Workmen will bring lights to the room which will require you to provide power via 'Utilities'. It will have a concrete floor and the wall type you chose. Once completed, the foundations will be removed and your room will be finished. Place the door somewhere on the outer wall of the room and your workmen will jump into life bringing materials and building the foundations of the room. The room will require an entrance, this will be a door, staff door, prison door or solitary door from the 'Objects' menu. Most rooms require an indoor space, this menu option ensures that what is built has a floor, 4 walls and a ceiling.Ĭhoose the type you require from the menu (you can click the 'More' button for more wall options) and drag out a space for the room size you want. This menu option is used for creating an indoor space. There are two methods of putting up 'walls', the first method is via the foundations menu. To make rooms with ceilings and floors you need to use the foundation tool - although you build walls anywhere, even inside rooms. To build a prison, it isn't just a case of putting up walls! That doesn't make a room, it makes 4 walls with no floor or roof.
