I haven't done formal testing, but through game experience, I think that fighters over a planet just might help happiness. My general way to overcome a rioting system (such as when another empire surrenders) is to gang up all available ships to a single planet, get it to stop rioting and then build an Urban Pacification Center on it (maybe after some troops).

There have been a few cases where I only had fighters available to do this and I was able to overcome riots. The happiness effect may have been due to other things such as battles won elsewhere, etc. That being said, it appears to me that fighters do positively affect happiness.

Hey, thanks Slick, I had a hunch they (Fighters) would affect the happiness thing, just wasn't sure. Will try what you have mentioned and see if I get similar results. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cheese.gif[/img]
