Institution: Corrections
The prison layer — what the colony does with a pawn once they are in custody — of the Institution suite of RimWorld 1.6 mods.
Vanilla RimWorld's prisoners are interchangeable mood-boxes; a "maximum security" wing is a decoration the sim never acknowledges, and a warden's work never changes who a pawn becomes. Corrections turns the shared record into a regime you run — it grades every held pawn from what they have actually done, moves a reform score that decides whether a sentence hardens or heals, gates release on it, and gives prisoners the recreation need vanilla flatly denies them.
The pages
| Page | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Classification | Grades held pawns Minimum..Supermax from a risk score over the record; wall-mounted security markers grade a whole wing; misplacement flags. |
| Discipline & Reform | Punishment moves the reform score — harden ("prisonized") vs. rehabilitate. The seat of institutionalization and recidivism. |
| Rehabilitation | The warden work that drives the arc: a rehabilitate mode + counselling sessions move reform and colony order, a parole alert + release, neglect that hardens. |
| Parole | Release a reformed, low-grade prisoner as a free colonist; with Ideology, the execution stance sets the bar. Nested, primed for a future parole panel. |
| Regime | Prisoner recreation (Yard/Lockup schedule via Prison Labor's timetable), visitation, cell-safety. |
The one shared record
Corrections keeps no per-pawn crime state of its own. It reads and writes the single CriminalRecord
that Institution: Core holds — the same record Contraband, Policing, and the gang systems read.
Corrections authors the reform / pardoned columns via Discipline and Parole, and grades and gates
over all the counters its siblings feed. Reform and rehabilitation run on Core's shared treatment
engine, the same one Ward's psychiatric care uses.
