Great mod, its truly vital in my supermax! Found a bug though, it seems to break the sprite of the CCTV Improvement detection bubble, the one that pops up whenever a camera spots a misbehaving prisoner. Instead of it appearing as it should, it shows half of an arm and what appears to be half of a table oriented vertically.

It marks all other deliveries just fine besides boxes. The checkpoints are enclosed with walls on the sides. I'm using the one way delivery checkpoint for that.

I'll try what you said for the prisoner checkpoint but it does mark most of them but some don't

If you are having issues with prisoners or boxes not getting tagged for search:
- Make sure that search targets must move through checkpoint tile itself or as close to it as possible.
- Try placing floors with slowing effect around checkpoint. With movement speed modifiers prisoners may move too fast for checkpoint to notice them.

Sometimes it just doesn't mark the prisoner for search. It's not like there's hundreds passing over it, just one person and it doesn't mark him for search.

Also, the delivery checkpoint doesn't mark boxes for search and contraband can still be brought in through those. I'm talking about the crate things that objects are in.

Maybe an issue on the games end when I have a mod like this enabled, not the game at all times.

@Peckoij Before I downloaded the mod the icon was fine. Right when I downloaded it was when it glitched. I disabled the mod and it went back to normal so something in the mod should be causing it or maybe it could be an issue on the game's end.

@MeFor3 DLC checkpoint may have better computational performance i.e. it may cause less lag. Personally I haven't had any lag issues caused by checkpoints (of any kind) but if you are using a lot of checkpoints issues might rise.

No idea what is going on with your icon issue, but it likely has nothing to do with this mod.
MeFor3 25 Mar, 2023 @ 2:55pm 
The icon for a misbehaving prisoner from cctv improvement is glitched.
MeFor3 25 Mar, 2023 @ 2:03pm 
What do you mean by "better performance" for the DLC version? Does this effect performance that much?

Dosent seem like its doing anytrhing now (only tried one-way)
Peckoij  [author] 14 Oct, 2022 @ 4:12am 
So, devs have fixed whatever they broke and mod seems to work same as before. If there is any issues let me know.
Peckoij  [author] 12 Oct, 2022 @ 3:20am 
So little update on mod status... Last update broke practically all mods which use separate sprite files, meaning quite a lot of mods on workshop are currently broken for foreseeable future. Including this one. Game devs made major change to how spritesheets are handled and didn't give any heads up or documentation about what was changed to modding community. Supposedly they are now working on modding documentation and/or fixing this mess. Anyways there is not much modders can do for now.

What you can do while we wait this mess to resolve is either play vanilla, rollback to update before last one and continue playing with mods, or play latest update and test mods one by one if they work.

@Daywalker1986 Thank you for reporting issue. I'll take a look to see whats broken in very near future.
Daywalker1986 11 Oct, 2022 @ 7:53am 
great mod, sadly the newest update broke it. Game CTD when this mod is activated

nice mod can't wait to put my contraband carring inmates were they go
Leo 13 May, 2020 @ 12:43pm 
Ah, good to know. Thanks for clarifying that! Also, thanks for such a swift reply.
Peckoij  [author] 13 May, 2020 @ 10:31am 
@Leo They should mark every crossing prisoner for search, but there is change that prisoners dodge checkpoint if they walk really fast or spend only really short time near checkpoint for some reason. Checkpoints mark all prisoners within certain distance from them every second or so.
Leo 13 May, 2020 @ 4:37am 
Hey, i have a question.. Do these work similiarly to medal detectors? Because sometimes i see prisoners just walking through them, not getting searched.
g_BonE 11 May, 2020 @ 1:12pm 
tested and it works flawlessly! thanks for the mod, it's really helps with all the contraband coming from the workshops.
Peckoij  [author] 11 May, 2020 @ 10:00am 
@g_BonE I haven't tested that modpack myself, but i don't see any reason why it would not work. As for load order it should not matter.
g_BonE 11 May, 2020 @ 8:00am 
would this work together with morgh's combipack sneezer? and if so, where to put it in the load order, above or below?

ein wirklich sehr guter mod/content. ich hab mein ganzes gefängnis damit ausgestattet, statt dem metal detektor
Peckoij  [author] 29 Apr, 2020 @ 2:20pm 
I have not tested that, but I think it won't provide enough income. Your prisoners probably can't generate enough contraband to get profit from that.
Deathwing 29 Apr, 2020 @ 12:50pm 
so with that mod and the contraband warden, do you get unlimited money or do the gloves and enough guards to do that are enough to not make it a cash cow ?
DaddyJokee 28 Apr, 2020 @ 8:48am 
@MagicDou have you activated the mod? I ran into that as well (first time using mod for PA). Gotta go to main menu, then mods, and then hit the X on the right hand side of the mod. Feels a bit counter intuitive since X usually means remove when positioned like that, but ya. And then like Packoij said, items menu.
Peckoij  [author] 28 Apr, 2020 @ 2:44am 
@MagicDou Checkpoints are in items tab, you may need to expand tab or use search bar to find them since there is quite a lot of items.
RedFire 28 Apr, 2020 @ 12:51am 
I CAN NOT FIND THE ITEM,WHERE CAN I FIND IT
DaddyJokee 24 Apr, 2020 @ 10:43am 
Finally. Always wondered why this wasn't a feature.
Ksihlot 20 Apr, 2020 @ 1:04am 
Really great to do some realistic checkpoints at the enter of the Prison and at the enter of some prison buildings! :0
Yonga 18 Apr, 2020 @ 7:07am 
Thanks. I don't think its cheating though. I won't place it everywhere.

AWESOME!!
tartar 10 Apr, 2020 @ 7:41am 
Very nice, thanks
monster 7 Apr, 2020 @ 12:20pm 
nice. could you put the universal checkpoints maybe 1 square regularly like the prisoner checkpoint. just saying!
Peckoij  [author] 7 Apr, 2020 @ 3:18am 
Mod is update to Checkpoints 2.0 with two new checkpoints. You can update from Checkpoints 2.0 to this mod any time. No new game is needed.
