What do you do with extra prisoners?

[CodyRex123]

What i really wanna do is set up a prison colony, (Ahem.) And then run it, Only problem with that is that the colonists would be gaurds and you cant have them on patrols, would be cool if something like that would be added so that you can have certain people posted somewhere and do work in the area, it would also make it easy to find someone that can do what your looking for if you had a colonist at the ready nearby.
Sorry, am rambling.

Well... for difficulty purpose's  i never grow crops during the winter, there for i eat what i can when ever i can. that may mean skill lacking prisoners, or bad trait prisoners usually get eaten 

yeah... Joe used to live in the sierra mountains... he enjoys raids.

anybody get that reference?

Currently? I use them as slave labour. If they break once, 10 lashes from the whip. If they break twice, they're fed to their fellow slaves.

Do you have a slave labour mod? Or are you just roleplaying for the sake of immersion?

Slave labour mod, things havn't been this uh... 'fun' for prisoners since the fear system. c:

It was much easier when the beatings were automatic.

I hear that! For some strange reason, the prison system is my favourite part of RimWorld. --InB4 "Prison Architect"-- What I often do now is just have my idle colonists gather and wander near a table close to the middle of the prison, and equip them with wooden logs to serve as batons.

I'm sure your colonists love that rule... Haha!

Nope!

I watched a show on Netflix that talked about this recently.They were sold a shortcut map that actually added 100 miles to their trip.Donner pass is part of I80.So anyway i just leave potential prisoners with bad traits/crippling injury on the ground to bleed out,but after reading this thread i might just patch them up to sell them/train on

Agreed, But now we can beat them until we deem their re-submission to the cause is sincere enough.

The threat of death looms over them always though. It's all to easy to accidentally send them to the butchery or to the fire.
