Happiness is determined by Happiness Sources minus Happiness Consumption.

Happiness must be managed carefully, especially on harder difficulties as Unhappiness will cause your population growth to stop and Unhappy units have a -20% production debuff.

Effects on the Settlement[]

Happiness is the factor that determines how fast your Clans population will grow. While Happiness is 0 or above new Villagers will spawn at your Town Hall. The more positive Happiness you have, the faster new Villagers will join your clan.

Recruitment formula []

$DaysUntilNextKinsmen=1.4*(CurrentHappiness^{-0.4})*Population-1.2*CurrentHappiness+23$

So if you have a population of 10 and 2 Happiness, your next kinsmen will appear in roughly 31 days.

(Thanks to Steam user "Bow to Gbowee" for the formula.)
