Hi,
I don't know if what I will suggest is possible to implement, and even if it is, probably would be a very complex thing with very little results. But is a thing that always bothered me a little, so here it goes anyway.
When hovering the mouse on a settler in workshop mode, there's an icon showing if the settler is assigned to something or not. You know what I'm talking about. That red human icon (unassigned), and then if we assign to a residential plot, becomes green, if we assign to a commercial/industrial/recreational plot, the icon changes to other icons depending on the type of the commercial plot.
The problem is when we assign a settler (already assigned to a residential plot) to a industrial/commercial/recreational plot, it overlaps the residential icon. This way we can't know for sure if a settler already owns a house or not (specially in RotC city plans).
My suggestion is instead of displaying one icon (vanilla), displays two icons: House icon and job icon.
The house icon would show red or green if the user is assigned to a residential plot or not (vanilla beds wouldn't count), and the job icon for whatever job the settler has.
