Colonist Expectations

Expectations and wishes
Clicking the smiley face beside your character status will open up your Expectations, Wishes and Thoughts.

Expectations
As a colonist levels up through completion of wishes and career/job, they will have more expectations of your colony. If any expectations are yellow or red on any colonist you will not get any migrants. Every colonist must have green 'satisfaction' in all Expectations before the timer will start for migrant arrival.

Wishes
At any time, a colonist will have 2 wishes. Holding your cursor over the wish will provide details of the wish. Read carefully as there can be requirements. Initially they maybe simple things like "Colony possesses a dresser" but as you progress they may insist on the dresser being in their own bedroom or even their own house!. The number at the bottom right of each wish shows how much 'Satisfaction' you'll get for fulfilling the wish. When completed, a new wish will automatically appear.

Satisfaction: When the Satisfaction bar is filled you level up in life satisfaction. This will reward you with a Rawards point and reset the bar to zero. Also, there will be an increase in the amount of satisfaction need for the next Rewards point. Keep filling the bar to improve the villager.

Rewards Points: Clicking this will open a new window which allows you to spend the point. Don't like that your colonist is allergic to Tomatoes? Spend a point to remove that! Colonist is dumb? Save up 4 satisfaction points and remove the 'dumb' trait!

Thoughts
This shows any event that has happened that will affect the mood. Too many negatives and your colonist may just stop working or worse, go beserk!
