How do you stop Rioting?

[James Sterrett]

"To make planets happy you need to remove the troops! Nothing reminds populations that they are conquered more then troops."

Ah.... and here I'd been assuming that more troops would make them less likely to riot, since it constituted a larger military presence.


<begin side rant>

Is all this sort of stuff - troops incense captured planet populations, counter-intelligence ops are effective the entire time they are running, when resupply occurs in a turn, etc amen, in the manual that didn't get printed? I'm pretty sure it isn't buried in the HTML doco that explains what the buttons do. The more I learn on this forum from the beta testers, the less I am enthralled by the documentation.
