Evacuation
Make your prisoners, guards, or various staff groups all go to a certain point- good for evacuations as well as sending guards to put down a riot.
Permanent points are in the OBJECT menu, and the evacuation alarm in the UTILITY menu.
Temporary points are in the STAFF menu.
If you place a temporary point, all of that type of staff will immediately go to it, and then turn back. It’s better to place them far away from the prison if you’re evacuating, then lock the doors.
To set up an evacuation system, put down permanent points, and then use the WIRE tool to connect any item which can emit a signal to one (or preferably multiple) evacuation alarms. Once activated, everyone within a 15×15 square of the alarm will go to their points.
If someone can go to multiple points, this is how they will choose:
1) Permanent over temporary points.
2) Then ones listed later (as they are more specific, such as "guards", instead of "all staff") over ones listed earlier.
3) Finally, ones closer over ones further away.
Once an entity gets to an evacuation point, they will immediately go back to normal duty. To stop this with permanent points, simply place an alarm near the evacuation points- like in real life, they will only stay at the emergency evacuation point if they think it is still an emergency, because they can hear an alarm.
You can donate to me using steam items:
Motivate me! Currently, the biggest problem in development is that I have to do work, but I keep procrastinating until the last moment, and then afterwards have no time left for modding. So if you donate, I’ll have more reason to get straight to modding.
Also, if you give me more games, then I could a) Rope more people into helping me mod on here (I know a few who want to, but haven’t bothered to get the game yet) and b) Get me to mod other games as well. If I get a game with a good modding system, it’s very likely I’ll end up modding on it soon enough.
Of course, you could just donate items to make me happy, and you’re a nice person. Preferably something pointless and chicken related. Who doesn’t want chicken items? Chickens? Chickens! All hail the chicken lord!
On a different note: I have now updated the mod for the new 1.3 prison architect update, so now you can have fun evacuating your snipers as well.
