Danger level stuck at high

[Tarvin77]

I'm playing the game on a Samsung Tab A 10.1 and am having a problem with the danger level.

When I start a new game, the danger level starts at low and immediately changes to medium and then high even before I start building anything. Nothing I do after that seems to affect the danger level. Once my prisoners arrive they are continuously complaining about security, which I assume is because the danger level is stuck at high. I've played the game on PC and never had this problem there. I have a pretty good idea how to keep the danger level low in the PC version, but none of those things seem to be working in the mobile version. It's making the game almost unplayable because my prisoners keep fighting and rioting due to the high danger level.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? Ideas on how to address it? Thanks!

My prison (15 prisoners small ik) seems to be stuck at a high saftey level. In prisoner needs all needs are good except saftety, tried hiring more guard, tried firing them all. Hired armed guards, reduced all punishment to none to no avail. I'd love to provide a picture or crash details but i got frustrated and deleted the prison LOL but let me know if u want some more info.


Also, my janitors dont want to seem to do anything, ive got a cleaning cupboard but they seem to hang out by the storage area (some do actual cleaning though its rare, and prison laundry is always done)

I'm running into the same issue. First batch of prisoners are already whining about safety for no reason, and the danger level seems to be stuck on high. I'm on an HTC Nexus 9 tablet. Glad to see it's not just me. Hopefully they'll track this one down soon.

Has anyone tried reinstalling or anything to see if that helps?

Thank you. I have now logged a new bug on this and added the input from all those reports. I can't say when it will be fixed, but hopefully soon!

All the best, and thank you very much for the details!

Im actually in the middle of my exams rn so its a bit hectic for me but i reinstalled the app (not official) apk, as for some reason my tablet isn't supported (was told this will be fixed in the next patch) but ive not got around to making a new prison however, i thought that it may be just that prison but clearly not as you are also having the probelm

I have the same issue and nothing helps...


The same bug, if I start one of the pre-built prisons...

Attached a Screenshot of one my sessions..


Hopefully it will be fixed soon...

Same issue here with my Samsung tab a 10.1. I first thought i made a mistake in building the prison. I tried to fix it in everyday possible. Metal detectors, cameras more patrols. even tried to flood the prison with wardens. still no change.

 

[AndrewT]

This is still an open bug. It has management and developer attention, I assure you! When a patch will come out that includes a fix for this is not known to me, I'm sorry, but I'm sure there will be one!

PLEASE fix this - or frankly, refund my money, because I've paid you for an unplayable game.

Not really happy about this.

Try doing this

1. Start the game.
2. Load your save file.
3. Check the Danger level (Let the game run for a few seconds)
4. Close the app if the danger level is stuck on high.
5. Go back to step 1.

It will stay on low after 1-5 restarts.

Ok thanks I'm all about a workaround. I'll give it a try.

Edit: Hmm, yeah, that didn't work. Sigh. Oh well, back to the PC version until they fix it.

 

[WorstForumEver]

Im using the Android version. It stayed on low after five restarts. Maybe you got unlucky?

 

[chrisbux]

I'm also on android, and so far I have had this safety bug no matter how many times I have restarted.

@WorstForumEver, are you using the default warden? Do you load the original save over and over again, or do you switch to the autosave it generates each time?

 

[AndrewT]

This has already been fixed in the recent iOS patch, and will be fixed in the equivalent Android patch - which I'm sure will be out as soon as possible!

Very sorry for this problem.

. Or more likely, given everyone else with the issue, you got lucky. Cause I'd love to be able to do what you've done here. Awesome prison dude.

Im using Saphara Acknova as my warden.
Its a hard save file. loading the save file over and over without restarting the app doesnt work for me. The app needs to be closed before every loading attempt. maybe im just lucky.

hope they fix it soon.

 

[chrisbux]

Perhaps you are lucky. I have not had any success with working around the safety glitch, even with different wardens and difficulty settings and complete app restarts.

According to what I was told on their FB Messenger page, the safety bug is not likely to be fixed until MID AUGUST because everyone is on vacation!!!

That is what I was afraid of - iOS was given all of the attention and Android was put on the back burner for the Summer.

Just thought I'd follow up with everyone after the latest update. The safety bug seems to be fixed for me on my Nexus 9. Old prisons from before the update experience a sharp drop in the need shortly after loading. Hopefully others can say the same!
