Must of been under a specific set of circumstances 240 meant something. Buggered if I can remember what though.

My philosphy is to simply blow up the sun in that system and rebuild.

Looks like I made a tactical mistake. I didn't realize that neutral was more xenophobic than xenophobic.

I guess you are speaking of cultures then: those only affect your characteristics, with Berserkers and Merchants being top of the class. Happiness type is chosen on the last tab in the Empire screen, and is set at peaceful by default.

I was thinking that as I was not going to be constantly at war, and certainly not always at peace, that neutral seemed the logical choice.

Thinking... the one thing that consistantly gets me in trouble.

What's your racial setting for happiness? If you reduced it to 50 your race won't like anything you do except for what AT suggests, genecide!!!

Not quite: 50 happiness will only increase your trouble getting your guys and gals happy, but it will not lower your happiness, so you will not get insta rioting. Neutral races have that one advantage: they are slightly less likely to be unhappy than the others. Even a Peaceful race needs less than 45 happiness, if memory serves, to start having happiness going down to Unhappy and below while nothing happens.

Oh, and be careful when signing agreements: in a game where I took over a neutral, I got several alliances on a single turn, and almost killed my Empire because of that... They all rioted since they obviously didn't want any alliance. *Sighs*
