Click on "Create new prison" -> Tick the box "Warden Mode" in the lower left corner, then you can click on a staff member over the warden mode box. If you still need help contact me.

How do I tell if a mod is enabled?
And also how can I select to become staff (Do I right click them? and select that)

Ok I just recruited a guard as the warden but there is no option to actually become him

Once you've downloaded this mod (subscribed) it should appear under Extras > Addons (i think) and then you need to activate it. Then create a new prison and select your warden. It should show Guard, Riot Guard, Armed Guard, Dog Handler, Soldier and a Sniper instead of the normal wardens. Then select one of them, tick off the Warden Mode box, (Change map settings and mutators if you want) and start it.

You'll spawn in as one of the wardens (looks like staff) and now you have to move around the map yourself.
You won't actually be able to do the same things that the normal staff does.
You can only build, recruit bodyguards (like you've already done) and pick up stuff that's laying around the prisons rooms. If you've read the description of the mod, you'll know what you can and what you can't do. Basically the only thing this mod does, is changing the sprites of the wardens. (Sprites = Skins)

The mod is still awesome, and a lot of the things that normal staff does, is probably impossible for this awesome modder (and others) to make so you can do that. Complain to the devs of this game for not making it possible to play as staff. Or making it possible for us players to make better mods.

I hope this was a well explained guide on using the mod.

Please correct me if I'm wrong on anything.

You should be able to right click on them. It will cost money and stuff, I think, but it's possible. Hover the mouse over any guard. I believe that even a riot guard can be hired.
