Happiness

The population is "Unhappy". There was an attempt to annihilate them, they don't even know that do they? (Reloaded, upgraded defenses (never used), sent reinforcements.) Anyway, after several attacks not one civilian has died... unless they panicked and did something stoopid, for which I am not to blame... huh? huh? One destroyer was lost, the planet is no longer blockaded, countless invading ships were destroyed... and they're "Unhappy"?! Where are the celebrations? Where are the combat groupies? Where's the f'in parade?

Just Sharin'. Smile

Related is a "warning" from the Xiati. "Cease your aggression in ..."

I accepted: "Well your only frigate is a deader, so OK."

I quit my last game and started another. It became too annoying and frustrating dealing with all the AI race anger issues AND angry colonists. ~16 years into the game It just seemed the anger was out-of-control. Perhaps I was just unprepared... At 1%/turn Urban Pacification centers were too little too late, I guess/think.

Lots and lots of police troops is the only way to keep your people happy in BM. Any battle of any size has awful happiness effects.

Unless you play a race with an innate +happy modifier. That can get the people up high enough to offset the issue... or emotionless. there's that too.
