so - a new quantum era...where people actually care if they are happy :)
damn the sheep for their organization skills!

well - now that they are self aware and organized, though, they will help you when they are happy, and hurt you when not...

what brings happiness? well - time will tell....it will not be just one thing either - a number of actions, and ways to spend resources, will influence your populations...

good luck to all in the upcoming wave - it should prove interesting, plus - of course - keep all the challenges that always exist when trying to take over the qunatumverse :)

Can quantum tell us the time the new era will start before that day arrives? It would be very nice.

Staying up until the day resets just in case you are starting it early won't work for me this time. I'd like to plan ahead.

the era will begin 48 hours after last one stopped -- so about 11:30 am gametime on the date stated...

and who said money does not buy happiness? ;) assuming there are happy things to buy with it....

Ah you missed the key word "true" happiness :P. It would be too easy to just simply make a bit extra naq to make them happy :P.

you'll need some politicians to justify the massing as self defence, deny it was over oil...er - resources ... --and lie to the population enoguh to make em happy about it all :)

or just create some public works projects to distract them from the military campaigns :)

Well to be fair Successful Military campaigns should create happiness, many world leaders have been swept to power based on military success. key word is success of course, lol, nothing gets a military leader sacked (or worse) than a failure :D

Your happiness wave made me depressed. :(


* extras: random factor on attack/defence is no longer 75-100% - it is 90-102%. You can also see, via stat page, others' relation with you -as well as yours with them.
Gambing/Lottery - the gambling and lottery will remain, with the 10 per day limit, AND odds being stacked against you. Higher risk brings the odds closer, but the odds remain with the house...The unit lottery is limited to 2 days of your natural production. The currency lottery returns just over 90% of what is put into it...In short - gambling is not a focus, but simply an option if you are feeling particularily lucky...As you will have to be to make it a benefit to you...
