colony happiness is at 1
colonists still spawn with all 1s for attributes

Finding the same thing; seems to be fine for the initial 4 citizens, but any after that appear to be all 1s on their stats

Just updated to 1.11.2-0.8.1010- still getting new colonists with all 1s for stats

It is- so old colonists have to be happy for new colonists to have good stats?

cool, makes sense- so aside from food, what else do we need to do to make them happy?

I have a level 5 townhall, level 5 houses, 2 level 5 guard houses, 1 level 5 warehouse, 1 level 5 deliveryman, all level 5 worker huts. desert biome so no rain and limited mobs.

Do the guard huts need workers too for that to work?

hmm... that's going to take some rethinking on city planning then, just for the sheer amount of space that all those towers are going to take up, never mind the resources to build them. I'll see how it goes though- if nothing else the guards will ensure that there are NO mobs in the area... ;-)

Hmmm ... So, when a colonist dies, happiness falls to 1. A new colon arrives moments later. With happiness at 1, also his stats. I misunderstood something? We must stop the respawn of colonists the time that happiness goes back up? If yes, how ? ^_^ ' (using 0.8.1010 btw)

Ow nice ! That changes everything ! grab some gravel

if guard towers = worker huts with happiness at 1 then
does it automatically go back up?
