How can I make my workers happier?

viviwatviviwat Posts: 1
My workers are not happy even though I have eight upgraded houses. It says they are -461% happy about houses. I also have four fields, two chicken barns, one cow barn...is that too much? Not sure what to do!;(

    Building/upgrading houses brings more workers & lowers happiness.
    Building decorations increases happiness.

    You also get some happiness from other things such as your farmhouse, fence, gate & dog.... oh & one of the farm machines in the garage.

    Your houses will always show a negative happiness number, it is offset by your decorations & its the difference between the 2 numbers that matters. The higher your positive happiness total is, the more your production costs will be reduced.

    And the old decorations won't make your workers happier anymore.So you have to demolish old one and build new.

    That isn't true at all!!

    All decorations always keep their happiness value.

    But as your farm grows it is a good idea to replace lower happiness decorations with higher happiness ones as they become available and you can afford them

    Each decoration tells you on its info or when you hover your cursor over it, how much happiness it is worth, that amount does not change.....Except for things with happiness that are upgradeable, such as fence, gate, dog etc

    Oh there is one decoration that is the exception to the rule....Telescopes...Their happiness varies depending how much you paid (donated) for them. ^^

    Hover you mouse over the flowerbed. What does it say EXACTLY? Then do the same for the stored decoration and put the results here

    And where are you looking to see the 101, 107, 113 ?
    101+12=113 so that part makes sense.

    placed flowerbed:
    Attachment not found.
    stored flowerbed(s):
    Attachment not found.
    And where are you looking to see the 101, 107, 113 ?
    101+12=113 so that part makes sense.
    I don't know?I saw that on happiness bar at the top right corner of screen

    OK :) Hover over the Happiness Bar now

    n fact another screen shot would be brilliant :D

    OK good....well it looks like the 101 & the 113 were the ones affected by you picking up and putting back the flowerbed. Not sure what was going on when you saw the 107, unless you were doing something else that was affecting happiness at the same time.

    Seems to be all good now ^^
