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

Yeah, exactly, something like that.

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".

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?
