I can't find this, I scanned through this thread and if I missed something that would have led me to it forgive me.

Thanks again.

Just click the link in section 0.1.1

It's in page "2" now. Will come up front later in the week as the update is processed.
So browse back a page and scroll down.

Found a glaring error:

4.4.7 Happiness effects construction rates; the happier, the better rate:
Mood Riot Modifier := 0
Mood Angry Modifier := 80
Mood Unhappy Modifier := 90
Mood Indifferent Modifier := 100
Mood Happy Modifier := 110
Mood Jubilant Modifier := 120 (Stone Mill)

Rioting does indeed reduce construction to zero but happiness, otherwise, does not effect construction rates! These number are correct for resource, research and intelligence production, but not construction. Population is the major modifier for construction rate.

4.4.5.1 will also have to be edited in this regard.

I believe happiness does affect construction rate on planets. It does not affect construction rates on ships & bases.
