Happiness

[Fyron]

Here's a great tip:

Never take the Neutral happiness type unless you want a really challenging game. Just about everything you do makes the people angry. In fact, Bloodthirsty is also not a good choice. With Peaceful, it is easy to be a warmonger and still have the people be Jubilant. A small racial happiness bonus works wonders.

I am correct on that. Check your .txt files and you will find that having alien population on your planet will cause a happiness addition of 20 (which is in the unhappy direction) and each of your troops on your planet will cause a happiness addition of -2 (which is in the good direction) so 10 troops exactly cancel out the effect of alien population on the planet. That is the answer to the question you asked.

Actually, it causes an increas in Anger levels, not happiness.
