After reading some posts here, I realized that planetary settlements are not a very useful thing, and that this is a saddle from which you will never get off, etc. However, I have a settlement, just for fun. They are easy and fun to manage them, in my mind. I’ve accidentally received a distress call a month ago, came there and defeated Sentinels then I became the overseer of a small Gek settlement C grade with huge debts and no necessary facilities…now it is an A grade settlement with 100% happiness of residents and very good productivity.

However, the number of settlers is growing very slowly. It was 35 on the start, it is 48 now and during this time happiness quadrupled, productivity increased almost five times. Why don’t NPC people want to join? I’m going to go to the nearest space station and organize a campaign “Everyone join my settlement, a personal house and the kind overseerr with a large amount of time online are waiting for you all”!

I’m kidding, of course. What am I doing wrong?
