Task List Sub-Menu

The auto-task list is very simple and is very useful. However, I am reaching a point where my task list extends pretty far passed the limit that is given in the menu. In order to slightly change the order of how I want my characters to do something, I must now delete the last few tasks, and then rearrange them in the right order.

My very simple suggestion is just to have a button to show a sub-menu of all of the tasks the character is performing, and possibly a drag-and-drop system for moving around orders of tasks, like we have with character squads and moving the character's portraits around and the squad group names.

Either that, or at least a scroll wheel in order to scroll through our tasks would be more than helpful.

I have auto-task lists as long as 8 or 9 tasks, to insure everything is done early on that I would like done, and then the stuff that can wait is done later. Just to give an idea of how long my lists are getting.

I'd like to see this as well. At least the ability to scroll and rearrange priority.

right now the task list AI part only reads like 3 maybe 4 of the Task's you have.

are you sure hatsune? because i have farmers who each are taking care of six farms, plus a couple of other jobs in between depending on importance, and they all have all farms in their task list and they run through all six as needed.

along with a hauler who hauls essentially everything from production to storage, and he manages to get to all of it eventually. this is like 6 or 7 tasks on its own.
