Disable all city automation?

[eukaliptus]

Is there a way to disable all city automation once and for all? Including production, plot yield placement and specialist placement automation.. most of the time city automation is very annoying.. please if u found a way to do this by python/XML coding it would be very helpfull.. btw, I'm using BTS 3.13

I dont think it's something you can mod.
Just don't enable it...
If you leave the governor off there will be no automation.

I wish if that was so simple.... but, unfortunately, even when you turn off governors, game still turn them on sometimes, and then your carefuly managed city(ies) turn into chaos of people working unlogical plots, and/or worse still assigned into special people

Which governor disabled, the only "automaded" thing is - when a city grows the new citizen will be assigned to work any free plot or be a specialist (usually spy).
This in fact is, because there is no automation - so you are expected to go there and assign the new citizen as needed. In the meantime, the new citizen has to be somewhere...

It might indeed make more sense to just make him "Citizen" (the one guy in the end of the specialist list)... But again - i am not sure if this is a "modding" thingie. Maybe a Python hack...

yeah, that would be good solution.. if game always puts new ppl as simply "Citizen" specialist. And I already have a mod that alerts me when there is a "free citizen" in some of my cities, so its a nice combination. So anyone knows how to do that? I guess its not so hard using python...
