Planning Prison Architect Guide

Last update: 25 May 2016

Planning is a very useful tool used for drawing sketches on the map. Using them you can plan your actions and rooms.

Planning can be found in the lower part of the interface (screen above).

Planning doesn't influence the real situation in any way - walls drawn with it won't be built if you don't use the foundations or materials options. Planning serves as a method of experimenting and setting new areas in the prison, thanks to which you can correct mistakes before physically making them. Therefore it's very important to plan everything thoroughly before modifying the building (screen above).

Methods of properly expanding the prison have been covered in the Foundations and Rooms chapters.
