How To Add Amenities In Civ 6

Back to Civilisation Half-dozen
Dorsum to Urban center

Amenities is a mechanic in Civilization Six that represents the contentment of a city's population, similar to the Happiness mechanic in Civilization Five. However, dissimilar in Civilization V, Amenities are determined on a per-metropolis basis, rather than globally (like to health in Civilization Four).

Amenities Mechanics [ ]

Lack of Amenities has spawned hostile units

Each city in your empire enjoys a certain number of Amenities, which affect its Citizens. These can be positive (increasing the population'south happiness) or negative (decreasing it); however, the presence of negative Amenities is quite rare, as shown below (a much more common state of affairs is that your cities merely exercise non have enough Amenities to run across their quota). Regardless, the sum of positive and negative Amenities gives the current Amenities level of each city, which is then compared to the current level needed to keep its citizens happy.

Each private city requires certain number of Amenities, determined by the metropolis's Population. The first ii Citizens of any given metropolis do non require any Amenities. The third Denizen volition crave 1 Amenity, and beyond this point every additional 2 Citizens increment the number of Civilities required for the metropolis to be content past 1. For example, a city with a Population of 5 or half-dozen volition require 2 Amenities to exist Content, while a metropolis with a Population of eleven or 12 will require five. The general formula to be content is $Amenities=\lceil (Population/2-1)\rceil$ (the end result is rounded up).

In Gathering Tempest, cities no longer beginning with a free Amenity (except the Capital), significant the showtime two Citizens still require an Amenity. Therefore, a metropolis with a Population of 5 or 6 volition require three Amenities to exist Content, while a city with a Population of eleven or 12 volition crave 6. The general formula to be content is $Amenities=\lceil Population/2\rceil$ (the stop result is rounded up).

The balance betwixt Amenities required and Amenities bachelor determines the electric current level of satisfaction for this city, as follows (by descending club):

Ecstatic: If a city has at least three more Amenities than required, all of the city's non-food yields increase by +ten%, and its Population growth increases by +20%.
Happy: If a metropolis has 1-2 Amenities more required, all non-food yields increase past 5%, while Population growth increases by +ten%.
Content: If a city has the exact number of Amenities it requires, there are no bonuses or penalties practical.
Displeased: If a city has 1-2 Civilities less than required, all non-nutrient yields by the city decrease by 5%, and its Population growth decreases by 15%.
Unhappy: If a city has iii-4 Civilities less than required, all non-nutrient yields decrease by 10%, whereas Population growth decreases past 30%.
Unrest: If a urban center has five-six Amenities less than required, all not-nutrient yields decrease by thirty%. In addition, Insubordinate units may begin to appear in the city's territory.
Defection: If a urban center has at least vii fewer Amenities than required, all non-food yields also subtract past 60%. Rebel units will announced much more frequently and in greater numbers than ever earlier.

These Amenity thresholds and effects received some small-scale changes in the Baronial 2020 Update and December 2020 Update. These changes apply only to the Gathering Storm expansion.
