Fulfillment

The Citizen GUI showing the main categories of fulfillment.

Fulfillment is the measure of needs and wants being met for subjects in a settlement. The player must make sure their settlement satisfies as many needs and wants as possible. All of the species have different preferences and the player must cater to all of them.

Fulfillment has a major impact on citizen happiness. When a species' happiness is greater than 80%, immigration can occur and at greater rates as happiness nears 100%. When happiness is low, citizens may choose to leave the settlement. Happiness influences citizen loyalty. When a species' loyalty is below 100%, there is a chance that a riot can occur, with the chance increasing as loyalty declines and becomes further from 100%. When riots occur, other species can join in.

Slaves also have fulfillment stats and these impact how submissive they are. As submission decreases from 100% the chance that a slave uprising can occur increases.

In most cases, focusing on satisfying fulfillment will result in the player not needing to worry about citizen loyalty and happiness or slave submission.

Categories

There are seven categories of fulfillment and most offer not only information about existing needs, but also configurable controls that can impact those needs, such as granting access to more food, denying access to a specific service, or even deciding what religion people may practice. All of this information can be viewed and controls can be set for everyone at once or a specific species. The below will be explained as if viewing only one particular species. For the particular species being viewed, only the fulfillment items with a green/red bar to the right are actually cared about by that species.

Population

Population GUI

The Population GUI shows settlement population, the average age of the population, the population broken down by age ranges, detailed increases/decreases to the population per day, the amount of immigrants that would like to be let in, a slider and button to authorize a specific amount of immigrants their entry, a slider to automatically authorize immigrants up to a certain total population, and, finally, fulfillment information related to the population.

Access

Access GUI

The Access GUI shows the current access to food, equipment, housing, and furnishings for housing. There are controls to set the quantity of food and drink rations that are available to citizens, as well as what foods they are allowed to eat. Foods inside a white square indicate food that a species prefers. The amount of equipment can be adjusted, as well as the furnishings citizens are allowed to have in their homes.

Food

• Starvation - If a subject can't find food when hungry, it will eventually start to starve. Starving subjects will refuse to work, instead they will spend all their remaining effort to find something to eat.
• Food Pref. - Food Preference. Each species has its own preference in food in the form of a list of edible resources. Each time a subject eats, it craves a specific food resource, selected randomly from the list. If the subject is successful in finding it, food preference will go up. If not, it will go down. This mechanic only works when the subject visits a food service room and not when eating from the ground, or in a warehouse.
• Food Days - How long the food in your stockpiles, eateries and canteens will last.
• Food Rations - How many pieces of food each subject is allowed when they eat. Rations more than 1 can only be extracted from an eating service. Increases health.
