Adrenaline, make colonists happier during combat.

[VapidLinus]

During combat, the people often become very sad. It's incredibly difficult to keep people from going mad. And if they go mad they just start shooting at my own soldiers. It's very frustrating.

I was thinking of adding something like natural adrenaline. When a colonist is in combat, by firefight, melee or using a mortar, they should gain adrenaline, which would make them temporarily happier.

What do you think?

That's a pretty nice idea. It'd probably last a few hours to half a day, giving +10 to +15 for the duration.

Until the trait system is completed there's no way to make citizens more hardened against the horrors of war. The best you can do is fight from as long range as possible. This minimizes injuries and limits exposure to dead bodies.
