So I've been able to recreate this effect a couple times now but when you are building a structure like the investment bank or something else that requires the drone or turbo drone and then queue up tall housing (anything that requires drones) immediately afterwards my unemployment will spike. My first time encountering this I had about 3k unemployed colonists when it happened and when I recreated it the second time it was just over 300. I've attached screenshots to show it. And if you look in the picture you can my last encounter with this as the little up tick in unemployment before my current one. Far left on the bar is a fire drill so disregard that.





I'm not sure if this is an intended feature for the colonists to be actively looking for better jobs but if that's how it works then it will be good information to have.

Excellent bug report. Thank you.

Was this ever resolved?! I have had this happening still and every time I do expansions it's becoming more and more of a hassle to regulate the colony! I do small expansion and they go into mass strikes and it's becoming scary to even think about wanting to update because I just had to restart due to the same issue that I tried to fix with a Fire Drill and it never resolved itself, if anything matters got worse from the fire drill, as everyone went on a 3 hour strike, 3 hours real life time, and nobody would do anything. I sold everything I had, gave everyone a huge stimulus package and nothing. Eventually deleted the entire save and started a new colony, still getting this issue when I do expansions.

I have only been playing a week, and so my colony is nowhere near those numbers, and still I am having the same issues with expansions, small or large, causing riots and chaos in the colony.

I am using Android and playing on version 0.76.0 which I just got off the Android market a week ago
