Age of Wonders: Planetfall – Local Resources Guide

Local resources and stored in colonies individually.

Food

Food income drives Colonist Growth upkeep, which in turn leads to Colony Expansion and higher economic income. It is also required for colonist upkeep.

Food sharing

Food sharing allows commanders to distribute Food between colonies to support the ones with low or insufficient food income.

Food sharing is managed individually per colony via the income tab in the colony interface, where a commander can set whether they want the colony to take food or share food and to what degree.

Food sharing is set to Prevent Deficit by default, meaning the colony will take food until it’s food income is 0, and will not give away food. If all colonies are set to Prevent Deficit, no Food sharing will occur.

Happiness

Happiness indicates how content the population of a particular colony is with their life. The happiness income of a Colony is added to a happiness pool at the end of each turn. When the happiness pool reaches the Happiness event threshold a random resource will have its income boosted to 300% for a turn. In case of negative happiness income, the income is subtracted from the happiness pool instead. With enough negative income subtracted from the happiness pool colonists may become rioters. Once either a happiness or unhappiness event has occurred, the happiness pool will be set to 0.

The more colonists a colony has, the harder it is for happiness events to occur, and the easier it is for unhappiness events to occur.
