Good Mod. Placed 5 Pagers of 100 Each connected 1 Switch to all 5 and Presto!

Two suggestion would be to make the workers spawn at the actual pager and not at the location of the worker flipping the switch. Also would it be possible to make it so the pagers can be rotated?

I got it to work. Figured out i wasnt using the control booth. I got it to work now.
1. utilites booth
2. place pager on it.
3. place "amount" panel on it.

4. profit :-)
Works perfect now. i just had to google a few guides till found one with pictures lol

forgot to mention im using murghs combimod with this in it. So my issue could be from either spot. So i dont know where to check.
dragonsphotoworks 23 Jul, 2019 @ 6:58pm 
Shoot.

Well maybe if i explain what i did might find where i went wrong?
1. Place a guard pager.
2. place a power switch a few blocks away.
3. place a x50 marker in same spot as pager.
4. attached power switch to Guard pager.

Its automaticially turned on when build switch. i cycled it to see and no guards apeared.

I can link a SS if need me to take one. I really want to use this mod.

the update probably broke the mod @dragonsphotoworks
dragonsphotoworks 13 Jul, 2019 @ 5:11pm 
Can not get mod to work. Followed what it says to do. And i get where it wont turn off either. Its on and stays on. And no workers of any type are called.

Problem noticed: When connected to a power switch, the power switch cannot turn off.

How to get it to work?

Sounds good, hopefully works.

wouldn't it make more sense for the workers to be available in the 'emergencies' tab? I know its not an actual emergency, but you could pay for multiple teams of workers to show up, as you do for paramedics or riot teams.

There's only one, Mr No Plural :P

omg the pictures
groovybluedog 15 Nov, 2016 @ 9:39am 
Outdated; the workers stay there after turning the switch off.

@Paciencia Use the wiring tool in the utilities menu, click on the power switch first and then the worker pager. Then turn on the switch and a worker will use the booth to call more workers. Make sure to wire the switch to the pager, not the other way around!
DrSimpatia 1 Aug, 2016 @ 6:22am 
How in the seven seas does one make this work?! I'm trying to connect a wire from the Power Switch to this machine but whenever I click "Connect", it only shows the machine and the Power Switch is actually toggled off... Wth?!

this is good but i'd like a guard version too
John Walker 2 Apr, 2016 @ 2:35am 
I love this mod. Is it possible to make make a guard mod aswell. So basically you can call guards aswell.

nice thumbnail!

the game works fine on a new game but whenever i try to open a saved game now it crashes?
Epicness 1 Jan, 2016 @ 2:31pm 
Thanks sambot. All of your mods are super duper useful and should even be put in the game at some point.

Hi. Ok it does work. But its not so simple. The connection is from switch to your machine, not the opposite. A video or a picture would be good.

But when you figure it out it works great. Thank you!
❆🎄Douglas 🎁 🎂 29 Dec, 2015 @ 7:10am 
Yes
Sambot (human tho, ffs)  [author] 27 Dec, 2015 @ 12:13pm 
@Douglas Did you wire it to a switch?
❆🎄Douglas 🎁 🎂 27 Dec, 2015 @ 10:09am 
Tried to use the 100 workers, doesn't work.
rsdworker 17 Dec, 2015 @ 5:03am 
Suggestion
also maybe create part time cleaners and gardners and guards etc

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=575273342 - i am experincing 50 worker bug - but here - a odd look
Sambot (human tho, ffs)  [author] 16 Dec, 2015 @ 12:42pm 
Thanks for pointing out the 50 worker bug, I will fix it tomorrow when I'm at my computer again.
Rublue3748 14 Dec, 2015 @ 12:21pm 
Just looked I also found that the 50 worker for some odd reason appears under staff as well (I dont know if its because of my trainers on)
Rublue3748 14 Dec, 2015 @ 12:13pm 
Ya that 50 worker thing is extremely annoying becausei created a test prison and placed down a 50. As soon as it came off the truck a worker went to call it and broke my game so thats another bug with the 50. (im also experiencing 50 worker as a real enitity thing) For now ill have the mod disabled but ill keep sunbscribed to it! :steamhappy:
matthewurke 11 Dec, 2015 @ 9:02am 
When i play my game now, all the workers are block squares, that move around. I can not see the workers at all. I know they are works only beacuse they are haulling things and building things. But i lost the imiage of the worker, when i add this mod to my game. Thank you for any help you may have.
Sambot (human tho, ffs)  [author] 11 Dec, 2015 @ 3:28am 
@mdc.1994 Ok, thanks for the heads up. I will keep trying to reproduce it, though I always test with all my other mods enabled and have yet to see it. :facepunch:
mdc.1994 10 Dec, 2015 @ 1:53pm 
When I had the issue, the only mods I had enabled were this one, and "Snitch Sorter", also by yourself (Great mod).
Sambot (human tho, ffs)  [author] 10 Dec, 2015 @ 1:11pm 
@Husker I can't seem to reporoduce that. If you have any mods that mess with default sprites (Stock Sprite Fix being the most common), try disabling those. They tend to cause issues when other mods are installed.
Digital Packrat 9 Dec, 2015 @ 4:21pm 
I have the same problem as mdc.1994 only when i reload it happens again..
I started a new prison and soon i noticed the worker box comming in but there would be a single item coming in on 3 or more trucks..
So each truck that came in would have one of these on them..
Good idea for a mod just doesnt work for me.
Sambot (human tho, ffs)  [author] 9 Dec, 2015 @ 2:27pm 
@mdc.1994 How odd. Glad it's working now.
mdc.1994 9 Dec, 2015 @ 6:55am 
Well, I went back to my game, noticed that the x50 worker box had two pairs of arms, one of which was handcuffed (Yeah that makes no sense), clicked it, ordered it to move like it was a person, and my game crashed to desktop. Re-loaded and all of the workers are colour coded and behaving normally (no more black squares).

So yeah. Bug fixed itself it seems. :worker:
mdc.1994 9 Dec, 2015 @ 6:52am 
Bit of a Bug: I've just loaded my old prison that had this mod enabled (With 50 workers in it) and now all of the workers (both normal and temporary) appear as black squares.
Sambot (human tho, ffs)  [author] 8 Dec, 2015 @ 11:56am 
@Semi I am maintaining this mod, yes. Do be careful with how many you call. if your computer can't handle 1000 prisoners it probably can't handle 1000 workers :)

@The_Echo_of_Insanity Check under Utilities.
Echo of Insanity 7 Dec, 2015 @ 3:05pm 
I subscribed to the mod and enabled it in-game but no new objects appear. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Semi Green 7 Dec, 2015 @ 12:05am 
oh sorry for necroing the thread. but is the mod being updated?
p.s. dont do what i did and assemble 10 of the 100 worker callers.. 1000 workers spawned instantly and crashed my game.. granted flight of the valkiries was playing in my head.
