CIs- a problem recruiting?

[BugPowderDust]

is there a bug with recruiting CIs?

Been running a jail for a while now and only ever had one guy become a CI. I am meticulous in checking people as soon as they get put into solitary, but nothing doing. Is anyone else having similar issues?

I have not had problems with the act of recruiting CIs, but depending on which version you are on you may want to be careful.

On Android, they still have the bug that can cause the game to crash when loading saves after you have recruited a CI. That bug was supposedly fixed on iOS.

Since they still haven't patched the Android version, I've avoided recruiting CIs. Since then, my saves have all loaded fine.

Thanks for the heads up, luckily I'm playing on ios

Re. CIs, if you aren't experiencing issues, it must be just my bad luck in recruiting them!

A few days on, grown my jail but still not a single CI. I've played the PC version for years and never had this issue. Something is clearly wrong here...

Just to add to this. They can still be recruited, if ready to be a CI, via their rap sheet, but you have to check each one individually

Checking them right away might be the issue, first they need to become surpressed, most will need aprox 2 hours for that to happen. The only ones that turn right away are usually snitches and thier onfo is worthless anyway. On a side note i tend to only use ci s after certin events, tapped phones and perma solitery is a fine means of getting those ??? Traits reveled if you are having issues.
