ok thx

I'm sorry, I no longer make/fix mods for PA. As with all the rest, anyone wanting to pick up where I left off just has to PM me.

thirst need

i love prisonacertect

I keep in touch with Sir Noolas... but otherwise no, not yet.

I've looked at Deadlight's mod... it's awesome. Though I try to steer away from mods that use sprite sheets, just because of compatibility, I do download them and try them out. I really like what he's doing.

Well from a game balance stand point, this would make how we like to build our prisons a little tedious, I think I really like the added need for yard time. I think thats good. There are two possible needs for the same thing, BUT not everyone gets it when they come in to the prison. SO that basicly means that some people don't need it and some people need it 2x as much as others. BUT, at the same time, there is no need to make yard time longer because they will be replenished at the same time. So I like this. I would not change it.

Have you considered chatting with some of the other modders. I know Deadlight has a Prison Overhaul mod for the community.

Ok, I'd like your opinions... I'm thinking of changing the needs dependencies from the Yard and Forestry to items. Specifically, Trees (sit under a tree), windows (look out a window), and a few others I'm considering.

Yeah Privacy and Clothing are both yellow needs. They never go in the red.

As it is now, then your prisoner will still work off his Fresh Air and Time Alone needs. I did think about modifying the Yard to be External only, but I wasn't sure how well that would be received by the community.

What if your yard is indoors?

So, I decompiled the main.dat file and looked at the Vanilla coding. I honestly cannot find the purpose of Privacy.

It's there in the needs.txt file, but it has no Actions assigned to it.

I honestly wasn't sure what Privacy did. I've been trying to get a copy of the Vanilla Needs.txt file to see exactly that. They may be similar, but what I was trying to do was Privacy is more a general trait that everyone needs. Time Alone (What started as Isolation) is a social trait that some like a goth would have.

I thought about naming it reflection or something like that, but that seemed too similar to meditation... and there are enough meditation/spirituality mods already.

You make a good point, I'll have to think about it for a bit.

isn't that privacy? I get wha you are doing. Right now there really is no difference between yard and common room. And you are trying to make there a need for one. And i like it. But maybe you could change the name from Time Alone to... idk, Pagan, or Reflection. Just my 2 cents. Ty.
