Is your feature request related to a problem?

As I go from building to building to upgrade them, I have to select a builder which is fine, but what isn't known is what they may already have queued up to be built. Sometimes, I end up overloading them and have to go back and shuffle the builds around after checking each builders hut to see who's doing what. Colonies are getting bigger and bigger so having to constantly run back to all the builders huts and remember them gets pretty daunting.

Enhancement or Change description

Expand this UI so that hovering over the builder will show their current queues

This would help split the load between builders more easily without having to waste a lot of time running around finding the builders huts and then looking at their queues. I've had up to 5 builders huts, so it can get very time consuming.

Notes or related things

Another option would be to put a # in the name to show the total builds they may be working on. It isn't uncommon to have them working on several buildings while I'm running around leveling out lands. :-) Knowing the # and what they may be building is helpful since each building could be very large or small and that factors in when we pick a builder.

This is not the only place where you can manually give orders to the builder: You can set the builder huts to manual mode, and choose the relevant work orders there every so often

Also, unless the builds are too far away, you can just not assign anyone, and whoever is available first will pick it up, as automatic balancing.
