| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:55 | comment | added | Kilisi | @apaul34208 there is always a manual way of opening doors, it's a safety standard. But that's fine, take control of guard tower and you're away laughing. Seriously though I don't even see a need to take over the cells blocks, just the outlying land and the housing if any. Cell blocks are enclosed in their own walls/fences as far as I know, whats wrong with just leaving them? | |

| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:50 | comment | added | apaul | In an awful lot of facilities it's not a matter of unlocking, as it's a matter of the CO signaling the guard tower. | |

| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:44 | comment | added | Kilisi | You somehow managed to break steel doors designed to stop desperate criminals? | |

| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:42 | comment | added | apaul | That counts on the doors working | |
| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:41 | comment | added | Kilisi | solved everything in my last comment whether they're zombies or not | |
| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:40 | comment | added | apaul | Also depends on your zombie mythos. Do zombies starve? Are they infected? Or are they just reanimated corpses? | |
| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:39 | comment | added | Kilisi | How? Zombies can't get at people in cells, but should be easy to funnel them into a yard or something, just have a fast runner, unlock the doors all at once remotely, open only doors leading to the yard, have a ladder for your runner to the walkway, pull the ladder up after him. | |
| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:39 | comment | added | apaul | But that's another issue... What I'm getting at is the sheer volume of zombies. It'll be quiet high in a prison. | |
| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:38 | comment | added | Kilisi | So then they starve to death in their cells | |
| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:37 | comment | added | apaul | In the US most inmates don't get regular yard time | |
| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:37 | comment | added | Kilisi | CO's would not be in large groups. Prisons operate on closed door policies, you go through a door, you lock it behind you. Once you're a zombie, you no longer know how to unlock. No one is going to be wandering around everywhere. Guards don't even have keys for more than their immediate needs I assume. | |
| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:34 | comment | added | Kilisi | @apaul34208 why would you have zombies rather than corpses in the cells? I would expect a lockdown as soon as things started going crazy. You might even have the majority of cells empty with most prisoners in exercise yards dependiong on what time everything locked down. | |

| Apr 23, 2017 at 7:28 | comment | added | apaul | Admittedly some prisons have farms, but you still haven't covered the CO problem, or the population density problem. 8-10 Zombies per cell is a pretty big consideration when the cells are no longer secure. | |
