Let the enemy either retake it OR le tthe rioting eventually lead to a full fledged rebellion (I believe this is possible) and when it happens send a ship with a plague deployment system.

Wait a few turns nice empty planet for you.

Then again for the most part with me if I know the enemy is likely to riot I just send in plague warheads right away wait a few turns and go in with transports with a handful of troops and a boatload of population

That sounds like an unnessesarily brutal and expensive way to evacuate, abandon and recolonize.

OUR YOU SERIOUS??? You mean to tell me that if I took 'emotionless' for a racial trait and then captured a planet that started rioting, it would continue to riot for the rest of the game??? I think there must be a way to pacify the pop of a planet like that?

Well thats a bug to be sure!

Review my original suggestion for dealing with this problem.

How would an emotionless race even get to be rioting?

Capture a planet that is rioting.

I'm pretty sure you can just replace the population with a transport. I'd jettison the rioting population from the transport while I'm at it.

Or you could just redistribute the pop to a lot of other planets, and transplant your own citizens on the rioting world.....

Ed Kolis · #19 October 24th, 2005, 02:09 PM

But you can't remove the last 1M, and they will remain rioting and override the happiness of any transplanted population, right?

You could remove that last 1M from the original settlers, but I'm pretty sure happiness is *per planet*, and that's it: races only have an impact through their own specific modifiers (the last few lines in happiness.txt).

As I understand it, Emotionless simply means "no happiness checks throughout the Empire", so happiness stays the same everywhere, and cannot change for rioting planets. It might also be a very high "Go back to indifferent" routine, if Angry/Jubilant captured planets go down to the Indifferent level (rioting can never go away through natural decrease).
