## 🔧 Manager Duties

### 1. Auto Job Assignment
- Prioritizes settlers based on:
  1. Food production
  2. Water
  3. Defense
  4. Scavenging / crafting
- Unassigned settlers get auto-routed to the most needed job.

### 2. Needs Monitoring
- Watches for:
  - Food shortages
  - Power failures
  - Low water supply
- Triggers alerts in the terminal or automatic job reshuffles.

### 3. Defense Rebalancing
- If an attack is incoming or ongoing:
  - Reassigns idle settlers to guard posts
  - Activates defensive power zones
  - Prioritizes repairs post-attack

### 4. Inter-Settlement Logistics
- Detects overpopulation or idle settlers
- Reassigns excess settlers to underpopulated locations
- Logic options like:
  - “Maintain 4+ settlers at this location”
  - “Send overflow to: [Sanctuary Hills]”

### 5. Manager Progression (Optional)
- Settlers gain "management skill" over time
- Better managers improve:
  - Happiness recovery rate
  - Job efficiency
  - Resource usage

## 🤖 Advanced Options

### Manager Personality Types:
- **Organized** – Balanced job distribution
- **Paranoid** – Defense-heavy assignments
- **Lazy** – Delays changes or leaves some idle
- **Robotic** – Perfectly efficient, no morale boosts

## 📬 Example Terminal Log Message:

> *"Manager [Cogsworth] detected a +40% increase in fog creature activity. 2 settlers reassigned to defensive posts. Power rerouted to turret grid Alpha."*

This system would make SCG feel alive — turning every settlement into a self-managing micro-colony when the player isn't around.
