Pal Base Idea: Toggle Work Traits

[Kit Fulvas]

Add a feature to allow us to toggle Working Traits so we limit what Jobs Pals around the base can do. My Water Pals at my Breeding farm for example seems to prioritize transporting over Watering Crops+Using the Water Mill.

Ik we can pick up pals and designate a task for them, but the placing is kinda wonky ATM, plus it locks them into specifically a single task.

or just an assignment/priority system.

maybe like a sign board you can make that opens up a set of tasks.

like:

Harvest trees: priority 1-10
Harvest rocks: Priority 1-10
Harvest ore rocks: Priority 1-10
Harvest logging pit: Priority 1-10
Plant crops/Water crops/Transport ground items/Complete crafting at table/Cook/Smelt
etc etc etc.

you pick the number, and pals with the right skills will always do a task with a higher priority first if one is available.

often when i pick up the pals and throw them at it, they'll leave it eventually anyways unless they're in my party and im babysitting them
+1 to darth zed's assignment priority system

Yes, this.

If you haven't already, I would recommend posting it in the Ideas and wishes section of Pocketpair's discord.

i would like to click a station and assign a pal from a list of those available

the throw thing was a neat idea, but it is not working

i want something like this, but i would prefer to be able to set the priorities for each pal individually
