How to capture refugees passing by the colony?

[Sky_walker]

From time to time I see a refugee passing by my camp - any idea how to capture him/her ?

I click him - and all I can see are stats. I select one of my own colonists, right click on a guy - but nothing happens.

Draft one colonist(press r) and tell this colonist to arrest the traveler. You have to have a prison ready for your future colonist.

Said prison must be
A closed room with a door.
A sleeping spot or bed build inside.
This bed must be marked as a prisoner's bed"F" is the default key for that with the sleeping spot selected

Then when u got the Traveler click on em and go on prison tap chose "Try to recruit" and "Extrem beating" no..no..no just kidding chose "Friendly talk" and then when u have a man with much Social you can recruit em.

Just remember to set a warden as well. Else ur new friend will just sit there.

also make sure that once you have the person in prison to RELEASE YOUR ARRESTING PERSON.. otherwise they will just stand there and do nothing lol

I hope that eventually there will be an option to talk to them and either buy their services, or convince them to join the colony peacefully.

If you wait long enough the prisoner will attack the colonist
