Happiness

[couslee]

I understand that.... now. But when I first read that they responded poorly to any unusual events, I was thinking along the line of "random events", not things like colonizing planets, building ships, and normal "empire building game" management. Also, I shyed away from the peacefull choice because it stated responds poorly to wars, not the more correct "new wars" A current war has no impact, it does not read that way. I had thought just being AT war would strain the happiness. (every turn)

Like I said, this is my first game. and it is not common practice imo to have to check data files for details when starting your first game. that is what tutorials are for, but this info is missing from that.

I got to looking at the direction i have brought this game, and I think a re-start with a new race is going to be the best idea. there were other game setting that I would not make again either.
Not that I can't play this one out, but it goes against my play style. All is not lost, I am much wiser on settings and other in game affects and effects.
