  • Arrows appear on the screen to indicate when an important event is happening: prisoner work or sabotage

  • To facilitate visibility, when clicking on a door on the minimap, the key is displayed and a line connects the two - When a player clicks on a door, the key is displayed, even if he clicks several times on the same door, the key does not disappear anymore, which was the case before
