Warning icons/audio feedback

[thedr4gon]

what i most missed in my 90+ hour adventure so far is some kind of audio feedback for happenings around my digital comrades. i know there is the blinking colours on character portraits for stuff like "sighted" "being attacked" and "starving" but what i really need is:



-your gate is being attacked
-your guards have spotted enemy
-your worker is out of tasks
-YOUR UNIT IS BLEEDING OUT
-your units need medical response

if those circumstances triggered a lasting warning sign, preferably on the underutilized far right of the screen, like the tutorial pop ups, it would really help. I dont think that warning signs make the game "too easy" or "pay attention to your characters you pussy" you might say, but i just had a fast character on a trade trip, and as it happens all too often, he somehow got stuck or stopped when he was attacked, and was bleeding out discreetly because he fell unconscious (which happens when you lose a limb) and i just have seen it by coincidence as there was no blinking or markings on that. the pack animal at his side was standing like whaddup.



TLDR; the warning feedback as it is now lacks the penetrance to be useful. we need more voice, more blinking, more presence.
