How to increase the happiness of a faction?

[f1rools22]

I've promoted them, I'm not gonna embrace them. Every single one of their likes I have fulfilled. What more do you want? Why are you only at 68%? I've given you everything you wanted! Prepare to be pur- now then, I'm better than that.






LIKE ME OR DIE FACTION SCUM!

68% happiness is good, should bring you into the green with them and give you the influence you get from it. Your really never going to get factions to 100% happiness.

Faction starts producing influence after 65 % happiness. After that anything is irrelevant.

Doesn't it start producing influence after 60%? I could be wrong, but I thought that's how it was.

Now that you mention it can be 60%. I'm not feeling so sure anymore lol.

I rarely go out of my way to Placate factions. This isn't a popularity contest. If something I do pleases them, great. If not....Oh well.

Seriously go ahead and rebel. See... What.... HAPPENS!

Cant' really help you if you don't say which faction. All I can say is mouse over the colored circles in the factions pane to see hints towards what will improve their happiness. You can also see what factors are influencinng the popularity of factions at the top of the faction pane.

He said he did everything they asked, but the faction is at 68% happiness so he's fine.

thats almost 20% happiness for every pop that belongs to that faction, which is enough to make pops living in terrible conditions produce no unrest and pops living in good conditions have a bonus

factions are not supposed to reach 100%, most of them dont even reach 70%, if its over 60 then dont worry much as going higher gives no extra benefit

highest possible for militarist should only be 89% how did you get 93%?(unless something changed in 2.1 and wiki is outdated)

militarist is also really hard to do it with cause you need to constantly take planets in wars, constantly have 3 rivals, have a vassal, and kill a leviathan every handful of years (which quickly runs out). it makes sense to have many considering that all of them are temporary

I don’t know but once I got a faction to 97% (think it was Xenophile), and it is possible to get a faction to 100% via Fanatic Purifier faction.

wiki says 90% is only possible if your not a purifier, and 75% if you are (as most the supremist faction things disappear if your a purifier

I started the game with 100% FP faction happiness but then met my first xenos and it went down.

that doesnt make any sense. considering that knowing xenos doesnt reduce the factions happiness at all, and no issues go away when you meet any, and that the bonuses dont reach 100 anyways.
the only way that could have happened is mods (or the system changing massively between 2.0 and 2.1 and the wiki is still out of date)
