Don't Count Paused Buildings as Vacancies

20 votes

Trying out the new experimental branch. Tracking system is great, but it includes buildings I've paused in the list of vacancies making it difficult to track when a building I want operating has a vacancy.

I would love it if the indicator for the number of jobs with vacancies did not include paused buildings.
PS. Love the new UI

The point of the vacancy counter should be to alert players to a problem. This is pointless if the counter is filled with intentional vacancies.

Although paused buildings are not using any works, it appears as vacancy on the summary panel top left.

Build a building which requires workers (e.g irrigation tower).
Pause the building.
Number of jobs from paused building is added to vacancies in top right of screen.
This is incorrect as this job is not 'vacant'; I keep thinking one of my buildings is not able to get workers for some reason (e.g pathing or lack of beavers).
