How to move prisoners

rimworld

When capturing prisoners, they appear to be randomly assigned prisoner beds. However, after I have perused their stats, I usually want to manually assign them more appropriate rooms in order to provide medical care and/or recruit them.

For normal beds (for the colonists), there is the "set owner" option. How do I do this for prisoners?

Here is a trick for moving prisoners to specific beds.

  1. Mark all non-occupied prisoner beds for colonists, except the one you want to move them into.
  2. Mark the prisoner's current bed as for colonists.
  3. A warden should come move the prisoner to their new bed shortly.
  4. For a room with more than one prisoner, manually order a warden to take the prisoner to bed. Then you can turn the room back into a prison cell for the remaining prisoner(s).
    • A constructor can move the prisoner's bed, and then a warden will come to move them.
