Hi!
At the Approval screen I get nonsensical text for each contributing factor. The percentages also do not add up.
I've tried different races & game but still get similar nonsense.
Running ver 3.01 and bought on Epic store. Been playing since release 2022 but never seen this before. Can you please look into this?
Regards!

Hello! Thanks for sharing this, may I ask for a related save via dropbox or google drive link to take a look at, and are you by chance running any mods?
Hi again!
Mods are not enabled, nor any installed.
I do have all official game expansions though.
Here is a link for two save-games that both display this behavior(all my games do).

That is not nonsensical text. Those are the names of the citizens on the planet. Put your cursor on the image of one of the citizens and get its name at the top of the tool tip.
So the planet is at 58% but all the Cits are 28% or less?
Never seen that screen before but now it makes sense
Ahhh, good call. Thank you!
Still a somewhat unhelpful screen, and murky why my approval is low. But at least now I know what the text represents. I thought it represented factors resulting in total approval, silly me!
Again thanks for clearing it up!

The planet is at 28%. The YOR citizen is at 58%. I have no idea how the numbers are determined.
You need to know that nearly everything has a tool tip and most tool tips have tool tips. You got the first tool tip. I did too. Then I held down the shift key and moved the cursor to be on the last name of the list and got another tool tip with more information. Notice the total approval values for the citizen are different. I don't know how the values are used to get a total approval.
It also possible to get the same approval values by putting the cursor on the lower-right part of a citizen's image where the approval indicator is shown. In your case, 10 of your 12 citizens are protesting your existence, so they are carrying protest signs. That's what the little picture is showing. I'm checking the approval of the same citizen I checked in the first picture.
Basically, you've managed to get 9 of 10 citizens of your type to hate you. You even got a Tywom, Ans Ern, to hate you. You have managed to get a YOR, ALJL 2867, to not hate you too much, which could be a plus. At least now you can see what is causing the most problems and maybe do something about it.
Good luck!
Thanks! I didn't figure out approval factors were just a hover away. This is why I thought the names were gibberish text. Thanks for really helpful instructions!
I've accessed these no problem on many earlier games, but haven't played last 6 months, so probably forgotten how it was done(yes, I feel old now).
Anyways, my citizens approval rating is now back to appropriate smiley levels.
