After finishing 4th mission, human players would get access to new mechanics of propaganda, which can be set on any of your planets. Propaganda affects resource production, like Cornello, but you can choose the method that better suits your needs. Be careful when choosing: each type of propaganda has its requirements, failing to meet them can make your planet lose production instead of gaining a bonus.

You can choose propaganda type on the “Resources” page. Check the requirement before selecting:


Effects of new propaganda types on the given planet would be determined by following factors:
· “level of climate comfort” (depends on planet's temperature),
· “level of income” (depends on total cost of mines),
· “level of production” (depends on total cost of robotic/nanite factories),
· “level of education” (depends on total cost of laboratories),
· “level of protection” (depends on total cost of defenses).
Each type may require high or low levels of these factors. If requirements are matched (“high” level with “high” requirement or “low” level with “low” requirement), production can get the bonus up to +20%. If requirements are not met (“high” level with “low” requirement or vice versa), production can get the penalty up to -16%. Each propaganda type has 2 necessary factors (“requirements”) and 2 supplementary factors (“extras”). To estimate the state of your planet you can use the “influence factors” hint:


The degrees of how the factors on your planet match the requirements can vary, the levels are estimates, not “on/off” switches. For example, if you set up theocracy, but then decide to build a laboratory, the bonus from education factor will decrease gradually with each new level you build.
Total influence on your production will be determined by the sum of influences from each factors. If you don't have a good combination of factors on a planet, or they all are “average”, no propaganda type will be effective and you can skip that planet.

Propaganda is activated for at least 90 days, before that term runs out it cannot be changed. Afterwards, you can deactivate current propaganda and select another type, if conditions on your planet have changed. For example, if you set up communism on a new planet with low mines, but then start developing them, you may want to look at another propaganda method, more suitable for higher-income world.

What is defined as a comfortable temperature? Please write down the degrees of temperature that are defined as a "comfortable temperature."


Sorry about the quote. Something went wrong there...
This is my first time writing on a forum...

Something that is not extremely hot or extremely cold.
