Introduction

Welcome back to Prison Architect! In today's episode, we will be focusing on making some changes in the game. Firstly, we will be building a Community Hall, which will include various facilities such as a meeting room, a classroom, a chapel, and a yet to be determined room. We will also be dealing with rat droppings and calling in pest control. Additionally, we will be making some alterations in the laundry area to make it more like a laundromat with better lighting. Finally, we will be working on increasing our green energy production and completing the Inmate Nutritional Research.

Building the Community Hall

In the previous episode, we started building the Community Hall in the top left area of our prison. This new facility will serve as a central hub for various activities and services for the inmates. It will include a meeting room, a classroom, a chapel, and a room that we have yet to decide on. However, before we can fully commit to these plans, we need to deal with a pest problem in the building. There are rat droppings that need to be cleaned up, so we immediately call in pest control to Take Care of it.

Making Changes in the Laundry

In this episode, we will be making some changes in the laundry area. Our goal is to transform it into a more functional and efficient space, similar to a laundromat. First, we will remove the wooden fences and alter the lighting to improve the overall ambiance. We also plan to invest in upgrading our green energy production, which will involve doubling our Current capacity and sending excess energy back to the GRID. To achieve this, we need to complete the Grand Green Energy Goal, which will reduce the negative effects of weather while increasing the positive effects.

Increasing Green Energy

To reduce our reliance on traditional energy sources, We Are focusing on increasing our green energy production. This will not only help us save money but also contribute to a more sustainable environment. By doubling our current green energy capacity and sending the excess energy back to the grid, we can generate additional income. However, completing the Grand Green Energy Goal is crucial as it will further enhance the efficiency of our green energy system, making it more effective in both good and bad weather conditions.

Inmate Nutritional Research

We are also investing in inmate nutritional research to improve the overall health and well-being of our prisoners. By implementing a new policy and modifying our regime, we aim to provide better nutritional support to our inmates. This research project will not only positively impact their overall health but also help address the ongoing financial challenges we face. While it won't completely solve our money issues, it is a step in the right direction.

Money Issues and Staff Reduction

Managing the prison budget is an ongoing challenge, and we need to make some tough decisions to alleviate our financial strain. One of the adjustments we will be making is reducing the number of guards and chefs to better Align with our current needs. We will also assess the qualifications of our staff members and remove those who are not fully trained or redundant. Additionally, we will evaluate the number of doctors we have and make necessary adjustments to provide efficient medical care.

Altering the Lighting

As suggested by players, we will be making changes to the lighting in our prison. While we initially installed solar lights, we realize that utilizing street lights along the roads would be more practical. We plan to remove most of the solar lights and reuse them in the yards, enhancing the overall aesthetics of our prison. This alteration will not only improve visibility but also reduce our energy consumption.

Dealing with Pest Control

Maintaining a clean and hygienic environment is crucial in any prison facility. We recently encountered a pest problem with rat droppings in our newly built Community Hall. Prompt action was taken to call in pest control and address the issue. Eliminating pests is essential for ensuring the well-being of both inmates and staff.

Handling the Effects of Weather

Weather conditions can have a significant impact on our prison operations. We are currently experiencing a weak storm accompanied by snow, which can cause freezing temperatures. To mitigate the negative effects of weather, we have implemented measures such as insulation for our pipes and buildings. By investing in these preventive measures, we aim to avoid damage caused by freezing pipes and structural issues.

Revamping the Laundry

The laundry area in our prison requires some revamping to make it more functional and visually appealing. Our goal is to make it Resemble a laundromat rather than a traditional laundry room. We will be removing unnecessary items and reorganizing the space. Adding seating, benches, and ironing boards will not only enhance the functionality of the area but also improve the overall atmosphere for inmates and staff.
