I am facing the same bug. What I did instead to do the same thing is that I packed the outpost, then split the caravan to bring the prisoner home. But now I am stuck with a glitched caravan on the map

Hey there,

I am running into this same issue myself. Is there any graceful way to transfer prisoners to another nearby caravan from an outpost? If I remove them, they end up like it mentions in the above comment...an unmovable caravan. Because the Caravan has no affiliation with my faction (Prisoners are not part of your faction) you're unable to control the caravan.

Being able to transfer them or merge them with another caravan would help, but these aren't even available either.

Any insight or workarounds would be appreciated, as I have a number of Prisoners I'd like to Enslave and then send them back out to Outposts to work hard labor.

Same problem here, would like to be able to merge my faction caravans with prisoner caravans

Get the expansion mod for this (Additional Outposts). It has this:


Outpost QoL

Addition of "Take Pawn" button for caravans to make it easier to transfer prisoners and other pawns from outposts.
