Prisoners are people who have been taken captive by a Colonist. They are unable to leave their prison room and are unable to use facilities (such as a food dispenser or equipment rack) on their own.

Taking a Prisoner

In order to take a prisoner, the following must be present:

- A cell

- A bed/sleeping area marked for prisoner use in the cell (select and toggle 'Prisoner Use' to mark for prisoners - the bed/area will turn orange)

First select the drafted colonist, then right-click the target to arrest, and select arrest <name>. This will order the colonist to chase after, then escort, the target person. This does not work on Raiders without incapacitating them first. While the colonist is drafted, their food and rest meters will decrease. This may cause a mental break to occur, at which point the colonist will drop the prisoner, who will attempt to escape if not incapacitated.

Hosting a Prisoner

A prisoner will require a bed or sleeping spot and food like a colonist or they may die. If the cell is broken, the prisoner will make an attempt to escape but can only be recaptures if the Taking a Prisoner conditions are met.

Prisoners Interaction

Only wardens can interact with prisoners. How the warden(s) interact with the prisoner(s) is determined by the options selected in the Prisoner Interface. Other than the "Gets food" and "Try to recruit" options, only one interaction in the Prisoner Interface may be selected at a time. If a prisoner is incapacitated, a doctor is required to feed the prisoner.

Prisoner Interface

The prisoner interface

The prisoner tab is shown on any captive person, and allows interaction with the prisoner via a Warden colonist. Actions that inspire fear or happiness can be selected, or one could choose to take no action at all.

Gets food

Wardens will provide food to the prisoner if available.

Try to recruit

Wardens will try to convince the prisoner to join the colony, but will only succeed a certain percentage of the time, and only if the loyalty of the prisoner is above the recruitment threshold.

No interaction

Wardens will not interact with the prisoner, causing no effect to Happiness or Fear thoughts.

Friendly chat

Wardens will have a conversation with the prisoner, causing an increase in Happiness thoughts.

Mild beating

Wardens will mildly beat the prisoner, causing an equal decrease in Happiness thoughts and an increase in Fear thoughts. The prisoner will suffer damage. Everyone else in the colony has Fear increase of 8 for 1.0 days (does not stack).

Vicious beating

Wardens will viciously beat the prisoner, causing an equal decrease in Happiness thoughts and an increase in Fear thoughts (stacks). The vicious beating causes more damage, and has a stronger effect on Happiness and Fear. The rest of the colonists receive a Fear increase of 8 for 1.0 days (does not stack).

Execution

The warden will kill the prisoner, resulting in an increase in Fear (40) and a decrease in Happiness (8) for the entire colony (10.0 days).
