Highlight all Workers when you select a building
When things are getting done as fast as expected, I often wonder what the (for instance) my builders are doing. There's no easy way to find out if you have multiple workers in a building, you can click on individuals, but then it takes a couple clicks and probably some scrolling to click on the next worker.
If however, all the out-of-doors workers were highlighted when you click on a building it would make it quick and easy to see what they are doing, spot problems and then trouble-shoot with that information.
Arguably, if you have multiple buildings of the same type you might want to see (for instance) all farmers when you click on a farm house. I've just played the demo, so it's hard to predict if that would be beneficial or annoying when you get to much later stages of the game.
And by the way, I'd like to see a different highlight color than green in general. There may be a lot of green on the map, so it really doesn't pop like a lot of less common colors would.

Mr. TreeYou can click on a building and then click on one of the workers that are employed there to see what they are doing and what there stats are.

MINIMAN10000This is one of those things that just feel natural when selecting buildings that I gotta admit I've done it multiple times trying to see the routes my beavers are running only to remember it doesn't exist.

JottEffHI, it would be perfect to me if I coud directly manage where my jobless workers have to go/work on.
Currently I only can manage it indirect, so i have to remove workers from another workingplace and the game "randomly/automatically" advice them where to go next. I would like to see/plan/manage all of this stuff.
Best. -

Joeyalong the same vein, being able to select multiple building of the same time to pause them, like pausing all lumber mills if they lose power
