Hey Juniper, very nice prison!
I have some general questions (Workshop).
How to update the "own" workshop file (e.g. A25 to A26)? I want my old prison refresh with my existing workshop page. Is this possible?
And how to create (attach) a field of discussion in the workshop?
thx for help...

To update your prison follow these steps.

1) Check your Shared Prison files in Extras to see if your Prison is still there.
-If not-
Subscribe to your prison that was uploaded to the Steam Workshop.
( You must un-sub before uploading new changes )

2) Launch Prison Architect

3) Go to Extras > Prison Sharing > Prison Name ( What ever you named it )

4) Once you load this, your game file will be updated to what ever is the most recent patch.

5) Most Importantly
If you save your imported map, it will be saved as another file.
If you wish to save any of your changes to your prison, i.e Update your prison on the workshop, you must upload.

6) To upload go to Extras > Prison Sharing and click Upload. ( This is how to update )

*Note - Uploading any new save from the Downloaded Steam Workshop map will result in another Steam Workshop entry.

Hey Juniper, thank you very much. I deleted the comment because I solved it later. Subscribe (myself) was the problem. :-) Your explanation is great and also good for all other people in this forum. Let it stand please.

Why Do Most Of The Cells Fail?

When I sub to this map, it doesn't show up and I can't use it.

I downloaded your wonderful prison (best in workshop imo) and reworked many things . Can I upload my version (of course i will mention original creator)?

When doing escape mode, the transport bus is stuck at the gate since the nobody will open the gate.

Hmm they must have released a patch to fix it. normally anything could pass throught that gate regardless if it were opened or not because of the spawn point.

I'll take a look at it.

Thank you!

Check the extras

Hey, you build a fantastic prison., but when i play in escape mode the guards put me into the reception, I get new clothes but then I am just sitting there and can`t do anything except walking around. How can I fix this?

Ah, yes. I supposed I forgot to add a shared cell block. I have Max and Super Max seperated throughout the prison. I do this by zoning the two colors of security. If the main cell blocks aren't shared, then you are stuck there.

Thank for letting me know, i'll make a fix right now'

I don't know how to type your username, but nice prison! My only question is does it include the criminally insane people, or no. Just asking. A great prison, first prison that I will subscribe to.

No, it doesn't. Still working on updating the prison to the new content. It's be rough because this code is 6 years old. It's been causing issues with tunnels and doors. Once I can get a good hotfix out I will consider the new DLC.

I played this on escape mode, it was great, guards spammed tazers so I had to burn my way out the staff room Payday 2 style, and then died of 3rd degree burns a foot before the exit. I think this is a good prison.
