Party Happiness

[FyrrePower]

Okay I'm confused as to why I reached Level 5 last night with my party, and I drop from +2 to -2 in happiness. When you highlight the symbol it says the party is unhappy with party size and a 60 percent chance members will leave. I want to keep it at 4 (though I was thinking of going 5 because I need a thief) but I don't want to be forced into having to increase the team just to keep them happy. Any ideas or am I missing something?

Happiness is a set value, it doesn't get banked or anything. So each time you rest it gets set off of several things.

Bonuses
Each person around the fire +1 happiness (up to 4)
Two knowledge things grant +1 happiness
Some foods grant +1 or +2 happiness (2 of a kind doesn't stack, not sure if two different sources do, never tried)

Penalties
Each member of the party -1 (who doesn't have stoic trait)
Didn't get paid
Didn't eat enough
Lost the last fight
I think they are all -1 but not sure.

So if you have 5 people you need 4 around the fire, and +1 from some other source. I might be missing something, not sure if there was a base happiness mod or not.

Strange, I always have cash and food on hand for any rest. Only thing I think I added to the camp was the tent. Then dragged the 4 people to the tent so the tent is now showing 4/4. Was that a bad idea or is that how its suppose to be? I can't drop any more tents. I'm still at a lost as to why I dropped 4 points.

Thats what it is, if you drag people to the tent you take them off campfire and lose the happiness.

YES the Fire Provides +4 Happyness but they have to stay at the Fire xD

Okay I'll change that tonight when I get home from work. Strange they design a tent in game to keep the team well rested, but if you use the tent you lose happiness.

Well if you assign someone to a position there stands what it does xD

My party size is 5 plus 1 donkey. and my happiness is almost permanently at +3. Go and get high lvl prisoners for their carrying capacity, sit 4 of them around the campfire, alcohol every meal and you're completely sorted. Your party members can be stationed at the tent for valour points.

you can also build multiple brewery stations and equip a person to each and it will counter act each one since each station gives you plus 1 happiness not sure if it stacks or not havent really tried but it helped me have 9 guys in my squad without a problem
