Fyron, I think I know now what your were trying to say.

An alien planet which is happy or jubilant, not only has its own natural increase in in anger of 20, it also has our races natural increase in anger of 20. Combining both, will cause the alien planet to move towards indifference much quicker as you suggest.

Once reachin indifference, our races increase in anger of 20 no longer applies. But the alien race's 20 still does, so it continues on to unhappy, angry and then rioting (in the absence of troops, ships, etc.)

It this what you were trying to say?
