Restricting access by zoning off pathways will not effect the grading. The Policy reports UI will allow disabling access to most privileges and visitation access, however access to other facilities ( yards, common rooms, etc.) must be done through zoning. The following inmate privileges contribute to the sector grading. Note that the sector grading of the Protective Custody, Death Row, and Insane (only with Psych Ward: Warden's Edition DLC) sectors has no functional value since these prisoners are not eligible for transfer. This doesn't mean needs should be ignored, simply that the quality of the facilities should be lower and inmate privileges more restrictive. Minimum security should have the highest sector grade with each subsequent security sector decreasing progressively with SuperMax having the lowest grading. Since good behavior is required to meet the criteria for moving to a lower security sector, it is recommended that higher security sectors are built with an increasingly lower grading. In the Cleared for Transfer DLC, prisoners will consider the sector grading during the decision tree for applying to a lower security sector. All Sectors and are graded on the quality of accessible facilities and inmate privileges as set via Regime or Policy, on a scale from 0 to 250 (shown in Logistics -> Min/Med/Max/SuperMax Sec Grading).
