0.5.496 Colonist Thoughts
Each Colonist has many things that affect his or her mood.
NEEDS
Each Colonist continually needs food and rest.
Each of these is represented by a blue bar in the Needs section of the Thoughts tab.
The blue bar shows how well off the colonist is as to level of each of these and a red arrow (or arrows) will show whether these levels are increasing or decreasing(fast).
MOOD
Next is displayed the Colonist's mood
A colonist's mood is shown by a blue bar in the mood section with several thresh-holds shown.
Red arrows at the left or the right of the bar show the direction the colonists mood is going.
the white triangle shows where the mood will come to rest if nothing changes.
The thresh-holds indicate the points at which this colonist may suffer a breakdown.
