Thanks Alneyan!

I'm convinced. My values were based on the assumption that lowering Happiness to 50% would be more like -5% or -10% per turn, and would keep going all the way to rioting. Your tests show that the effect is minescule in the extreme - essentially a non-factor (sigh). Therefore it's only worth perhaps 1/5 to 1/10 as much as I had it (and just plain ridiculously less than the unmodded value).

If you have time, I'd be interested to know if raising Happiness to the maximum has any worthwhile effect, or if it just delays the drop to indifferent by a couple of turns.
