I notice they get their freedom needs met during yard in their cells. seems buggish.
It used to be a good way to assemble people before meal time, now it doesn't work.
 
seems to be normal sec, not max. If I set my entire regime to "yard" for the whole day, every other group goes to their yard milling around angrily all day. Normal sec treats it strangely, a handful go to the yard, most of everyone else goes to their cells. I've disabled all common rooms and made sure yards are set to their proper security levels.
Interestingly, they're able to meet their freedom needs inside their cells, which seems like a bug.
