Max. number of workers outside CO

[Joman]

I allmost lost the game because of this feature. Don't like it at all!

When I build a new house in a city, then the building under construction sucks all workers in and no one is at the bus station to drive to the heating plant anymore. Even, when there is no material at the construction site.

Can we please have it switched off by default?
It's anoying to switch it off for every building manually.

Actually there is a possibility with the new beta pack :) (And I love it)

If you look in the build menu at the bottom left, i.e. above the map. There are two new functions, on the one hand you can switch off the automatic start of construction, so your buildings are only built when you say so yourself and you can set how many workers outside of a CO should/may work there. In my example, I still have the automatic construction on and only allow 0 workers outside of a CO, (default is 100)

Wow, that's great!
I totaly missed it.

You really need more workers as well, it should never be so few that one construction project shuts downs any of the buildings like heat or stores. You need workers for building plus like 200 hundred for construction

Its still my first city in realistic mode. I'm struggling to make a little profit.

Your workers will make profit if you have something for them to make and sell. Early in the game thats hard of course especially in the new version now.
