Ok, here's the savegame.

Save Game, turn 136 (about 3 turns ago)

I did change the happiness.txt file to make all of them identical parms to "peaceful" and the next turn I colonized two planets (I'd just created with my Stellar Manip ships) and it made a big difference already.

Heh, I also edited the facilities, I should probably change those back, eh? ;-)

Could you just post the happiness.txt file and specify the type your race is using.

That means you probably selected Neutral. Neutral hates contact of any sort. Winning battles, losing them, making colonies (IIRC), its all bad. Only Non-Aggressiona and Non-Intercourse make your people happier.

You selected neutral. Got the savegame saved the empire started new game loaded it up and checked. Neutral empire.

Well... now you know first hand why neutral empires are unpopular.

So just change to an isolationist policy and your people should be happier!
