Parameter-based Governor Auto-assignment
« on: July 27, 2020, 08:35:35 PM »
Some kind of system that allows planetary governors to be automatically assigned based on parameters selected by the player.  For example:

A player would select Population Growth for large population center;

Mining for mining colonies;

Shipbuilding for shipyards, and so on.

In the meantime, increments are now so fast that it's hard to spot when an assigned administrator dies.  Could that possibly be turned into a break so it's easier to keep colonies running smoothly?

There is an approved mod that allows you to control what events trigger interrupts.

I agree that it should be possible to automate however; maybe you could have a priority system to help the automation decide who to put where.  The priorities could be set per colony, so for example on col-cost 0 worlds you might have it look like "Population Growth > Production > Mining" while on col-cost 2 worlds it could be "Terraforming > Logistics > Mining".

Yeah, exactly, something like that.

In case you missed it, it's coming in 1.12.
