Without the automatic fireman: two suggestions:

1) Edit the eng file:
change:

FireDoor ( 0 1 0.1 1
NumNotches( 0 )
)

with

FireDoor ( 0 1 0.1 1
NumNotches( 0 )
)

Now the steam production decrease when the firebox door is full open (and the smoke color change)

2) Edit the eng file:
change:

ShovelCoalMass ( 11lb)

with

ShovelCoalMass ( 1lb )

Now the fire temperature decrease when you throw coal.

Any other suggestions?

I cannot see any difference in the two Firedoor ststements. The ShovelMass is one that I always change anyway becuase even with the automatic fireman that parameter affects fire temperature and smoke colour.
