READ ME FIRST: PA Calculator has served over 465 survey contributers and over 65570 prisons!
Please DO NOT request ACCESS it will not be given, to use this sheet go to file -> make copy live results
Hello and good day! I hope you find what you are looking for hear, this is the PA calculator for your pesky kitchens and various other problems total entries 465
This calculator is not perfect, there are many factors from cpu processing, travel distances and canteen and kitchen placement total prisons 65570
however this will be very close to making sure you have what you need. It is ultimately up to the player to fine tune the results score 8.4 / 10
Please RATE this guide and fill out my survey if you would like and provide any feedback that you would like to give.
Please scroll down to view a community help request as well as some reasons to why I have not included other figures in this calculator
Survey Link
My findings
There were some requests for the first survey mailroom, library, temperature and dormatory calculations
I did look into a way to be able to do this and hoping I could however, after awkard testing phases and alot of random data I concluded these are not as concrete
for what I have done and thus it will be up to the player to determine how to handle these situations.
Also from my first survey I have decided to remove the cell grading system as for its little use but also the fludity behind grading cells is beyond what a calculator can do for you
Community help requested!
If you wish to contribute to the testing for the calculator or wish to help me add new sections to it please follow the guidlines belows
If you wish to provide personal feedback to me directly please message me on reddit at GiantB
Be throughout with your testing I recommend making seperate maps for each test you want to do.
Be as detailed as you can be with testing
Use cheats to manipulate situations so you dont have to waste your time. How to cheat
Provide me actual mathematical data than this spreadsheet can operate on and for others to view and test. as an example go to the test results sheet.
How do I use this sheet? Make sure to make a copy of the sheet and use that copy before you do the steps below
Begin by selecting your quantity and varitey using the dropdown menus in the C10 and C11 cells and then enter the number of your feeding group
If you have 1 kitchen that has different security level prisoners use the larger group for more accurate results. see cell "B32" for more details.
Please keep in mind that cooks will start 4 hours ahead of the planned eating time and this sheet does not calculate prison labor, only cook labor
These results are based off two 2 hour eating period 12 hours apart, the more time you have the more you can feed with less,

Tips:
Different Feeding Groups:
EX: You have 3 seperate eating times for min/med/max in that same order you estimate to be this many prisoners during their seperate feeding times 25/85/30.
Plan for the largest feeding group and the other groups will fall into place and have plenty of space. So in this case that would be Medium Security at 85 prisoners.
Keep in mind that the "Variety" of food only effects the number of fridges that you need
Canteen Effecient vs. Aesthetic:

Use the drop down menu to select "Effecient" or "Aesthetic" you only need 1 table to make a canteen, select Aesthetic if you want tables to fit the prisoner population
Kitchen Floor Planning
Kitchen items are "non solid" meaning that characters do not have a speed reduction walking through them. So put them right next to eachother to save room!
Canteen Floor Planning

If you are building for practical purposes you only need 1 table to make it a canteen, the prisoners will eat off benches. saves lots of space
Try to leave lanes 1 square wide to ensure fast travel, benches are "solid" objects and will effect characters speed.
Put "Serving Tables" as close to the kitchen for better food output
**All of these are suggested amounts and you should make changes according to your prison
**Laundry rooms are very hard to test so feed back is appreciated
I suggest multiple smaller rooms instead of big ones to help with logistics
The walking time prisoners have to do greatly effects their effective working power, so spread them around and be smart about it.

1/13/2016 5:56:28 5 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning 8 Kitchen calculator seems to be under "ideal circumstances" - ie kitchen next to deliveries. In real life playing, I seem to have to add 1 chef to the number. (no idea if this breaks down further with multiple kitchens - no riots, but not everybody gets fed at every meal). It also breaks down at ridiculously low numbers (1 prisoner) - I used it for my PC canteen, and it told me i needed 0 equipment. Clearly this isn't true.

Regarding Cell Grading, I rate showers much higher because they take up no space. It can be placed right next to the door, and prisoners can walk under it. This allows 2x2 Grade 1 cells. Showers in the cells also save travel time and space with communal showers.
1/26/2016 6:33:03 8 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning 8 In workshops, I found a 2:1 press-to-saw ratio results in a buildup of unprocessed lumber from forestry & carpentry. I need more saws.

Biggest thing I would love to see is a breakdown of 100's or 50's count of prisoners to calculate high pop prisons' canteen and kitchen needs, high pop laundry usually ends up being maxed out per cell block (in my prisons at least, I just make it as big as possible to service one large cell block of 100+ prisoners).
Ex. 100 prisoners = 10 cookers, 30 fridges, 20 tables (random numbers)

2/4/2016 23:48:08 10 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning 8 200 prisoners = 20 cookers, 40 fridges, 40 tables (if the values weren't linear)

8 Thanks for the great tool. Workshop suggestion of 2:1 press-to-saw ratio seems off to me on the current release: 6 saws, 12 presses, 20 workers, 6 tables, and even after a few hours of steady work, only about half the presses are in use.

8 The spreadsheet formulas could use a little polishing here and there, for example the calculation for # of benches just divides the # of prisoners by 4 per bench. I'd want the result to be rounded up since there's no such thing as half a table and leaving that part out of the results means I may end up a bench short. This is especially noticeable when a canteen serves a small group of prisoners (protective custody for example).

For the kitchen sheet, i followed it and i had too many benches and not enough cookers. prisoners only take about 15 minuets to eat meaning you dont need as many benches, as well i tried to have no extra space in my kitchen and i had WAY too much congestion. but of course im playing with 4000 prisoners so its alot more easy to see the flaws on a larger scale. i suggest you do more testing and you adjust some of the amounts.
The reason i dont use the other sheets is because it doesn't let you set the amount of work hours. i have 11 work hours so i would have an overflow if i followed the sheet exactly. ive been able to run 1000 prisoners with 40 prisoners working laundry.

10/29/2016 8:20:53 1 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning, Workshop 8 You could include what rooms are best positioned in relation to other areas but other than that it's been very useful so thank you!

12/11/2016 14:34:54 12 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning, Workshop 10 You could possibly expand it into a site, rendering it more effective for all devices and just plain more easier.

1/4/2017 10:43:24 2 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning 8 Workshop would needs improvement. The maximum workers seem to be 20 in one room. Also, not sure why it needs 6 work press for 3 work saw since (based on wiki) 3 work saw create 360 plates in 180 seconds and 4 work press process these 360 plates in the same amount of time.

1/30/2017 23:34:41 12 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning 9 While not specifically for the calculator itself, I think these formulas should be incorporated into a functional mod so that it can be used in game without needing to Alt-Tab out :D

3/2/2017 20:25:32 1 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning, Workshop 9 This is pretty awesome, but i wish there was a way around the whole "build 1.6 laundry rooms" ... :) Or at least, some advice for what to do in those circumstances: round up and make 2, make 1, but make it a bit bigger, make 2 smaller ones... etc. :)

7/4/2017 17:16:45 1 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning, Workshop 7 Workshop calculator is off: I make much more money than what is shown, and that's with using carpentry
7/5/2017 10:55:41 1 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning 9 I wont say much since i have no clue how the spreadsheets work but there seem to be some rounding issues in workshop and laundry/cleaning so that might be fixable.
7/6/2017 12:12:20 125 Kitchen 9 it works really wel

7/8/2017 21:31:34 2 Kitchen, Laundry/cleaning, Workshop 8 While the suggested worker count for cleaning and laundry rooms is nice, there is no option to change the worker count, making the calculator less useful for figuring out what I need for larger or smaller rooms.
