I need help making a jail map. I have a few basic ideas, but I need more help. Anyone can help, it doesn’t matter who
like designs or ideas for what to do on the map
alright, we have almost 0 context
Please elaborate
I need ideas for buttons, prison-mates chats, what to do… (I have GIMKIT+)
use like a chat system – find a guide on it, and you should be able to only set it to the prisoners using a relay if you have a team system in place…
sorry no images
What are some things you could do on the map, and what skins should the guards (sentries) look like? And what should the guards and other prisoners say? Also, how should you get out of your cell? Also, should I do a medieval theme or a modern themed jail?
I mean for a prison you could use the bike racks as the cells
You could also use gym bars as cells
Echo and vortex agents could make good guards, and for bars you could use bike rack props, barriers, or custom shapes.
Add a cafeteria area with a lot of prisoners you can talk to. Some of them should give helpful information, like where to get materials, while others might tell you how they got put in jail. Depending on the theme of your game, you could add someone who didn’t commit any crimes; they just like the free bedding and food at jail, so they stay.
Add watchtowers that you can explore and find notes about the lives of the guards. One guard might have a night shift on the night of his daughter’s birthday, so he doesn’t have time to get a present. If you give him a specific item (as a present for his daughter) maybe he’ll give you a key to move forward in the game. Just an idea. ![]()
Allow players to move around via vents to avoid getting caught by guards.
A laser room, of course. Possibly lasers that only become visible if you sprinkle dust on them, which you get from somewhere else.
An evidence room where you can get gadgets.
An interrogation room.
Use metal poles and bike racks for prison cells.
You could use the Fairplay gim for the guards (he looks like a SWAT member).
Add the Police Department which is full of donuts (medpacks).
well.. about guards… I see that some forumers say that…
and I will like to add a system that if you’re so close to a guard… they’ll catch you… and respawn in the jail..
(this idea is only for a escaping room.. you know what I mean.. escape the jail!!!)
I feel like u should add a recreational area for the prisoners and maybe a lounge for the guards to hang out in. Then maybe add like maybe a playground with basketball hoops and maybe even a soccer field. (blastball)
Hear me out, Friend bar
There is a “Popularity” Bar for helping inmates and guards
If you talk to others, help them etc, it’ll increase.
If you don’t and/or make enemies, it’ll decrease.
Gameplay will be easier if you’re popular, people will help you, give useful items etc.
You’ll be forced into fights or higher security if you’re not.
add a lot of jail cells so that it gives the look that your not alone in the prison.
what about a cafeteria where all the plates are messy? (infected plates)
Well if you want inspiration for design or even mechanics you could look at games like The Escapists or Prison Architect as both are well designed prison games.
If you wanted more details here are some ideas:
- A cafeteria where you can get materials to make gadgets (like plastic, tape, cups, anything that could be used for a gadget)
- Stun batons that slow the player if their hit (If players can be guards)
- A level system that lets players unlock more recipes and get stronger (so they can’t just get out the moment the game starts, it will take time)
- An armory that the guards don’t spawn in and prisoners can get gadgets there if they break in
- Sn1per towers that damage troublesome prisoners if they are outside and dangerous
- A generator that prisoners can destr0y to open all doors, guards can repair it but it takes a long time
- Desks in all the cells where prisoners can store their items
- Swat officers that show up outside the prison if prisoners are too dangerous for too long, swat officers can be sentries or players
- Cameras that guards can look through to see what players are doing
- A punch button for prisoners so they can fight without a gadget
- A needs bar for prisoners that can include things like hunger, thirst, fitness, happiness, but if the needs bar is too low they get debuffs
- A day night cycle with a schedule (so prisoners can’t get items or gadgets all day without consequence) if a prisoner is in the wrong area during the schedule they are considered dangerous
- Custom items like bandages, smoke b0mbs, substances that make you stronger, etc
