Hey all,
Very nice game! That out of the way. Does anyone know how to stop rioting? I took over 20+ planets and left troops on each of them. Almost all of them are rioting. Two of the systems has Urban Pacification Center III's. I would think that after I took them over that they would work for me. I don't see any other ways to control/modify the happiness. That was one benefit from SEIII that was lost. Any ideas?

Have some patience. There will be results, it just depends on how many troops you have left. When I drop several hundred troops on a planet and capture it, I leave ALL of them there for the next turn and the planet is always jubilant next turn, even if it was rioting when captured. So, if you aren't getting results fast enough use more troops. At least 20 per planet.

I hope he is very patient since the post you responded to is nearly a year old. I suspect that they have forgotten what they were rioting about by now.

Well, I didn't look at the date of the original post. I just noticed the thread bouncing up to the top of the list. If the post is that old then troops might not have had the happiness effects yet. I forget exactly which patch this was added in.

One game I played a race with -20 happiness, -50 tolerance, - 7 or -10 on reproduction. ( Organic, Temperal ) ( I was playing a society of subgated immortials )

It was a hard game. No Reproduction. Unhappy to Angry was the Norm for all planets. I used troops extensively. To keep the population under rap. I had 3 fleets of 8 med transports and 1 warp ship. Very hard to keep everyone under raps until the Temporal Vacation Services III came on line. Then it still took about 3 years to make the masses happy.

I think I stopped about 30-50 rebellions.
