So I had a riot and my prisoners are clogging up solitary instead of working in my workshop, so I went into making losses on a day, so I released a ton of prisoners by ending punishment. They all yell angrily and 90% immediately start attacking, and I don’t think that it’s the needs because they don’t have THAT bad needs. Prisoners should be happy to be released.
 
What's the danger level in your prison? It would be helpful to also see your save file. (You'll need to zip the .prison file)
My danger level is almost none, and it is a noticeable difference between the prisoners in punishment and outside. I paused the game and the very next frame they attack. My prisoners don’t attack every frame, obviously. I am console by the way. I assume prisoners don’t like being punished and are coded to attack or be incredibly angry if they are punished by the player manually, so I expect that the code doesn’t check if they are getting ending punishment or being punished.
