Smarter Buttons - Use of Shift & Ctrl

[fair kernel]

Hello !
I don't know if that was already suggested but I have a few problems with the logic behind windows atm.
Especially when dealing with villager's needs / workplace, and recruitment.
I know too much windows are a big problems because you can be overwhelmed by them but with keyboards shortcuts it can be easily solved.
Here I focus on the villagers but it is applicable to soldiers and monks.

** Post made much easier to understand + quicker**
The main Idea is that when you shift + click something, the concerned windows simply pops up
And ctrl + click does something smarter that simple clicking.
The suggestion are only additions with the keyboards shortcuts, current logic don't change.

** N*1 : villagers window**
So actually Villager's window's logic atm depends on the click that initiated it. If you click on a passing villager, lets say the one the camera is following (with info-popups), the logic is messy.
Right now when I am on a villager's window and I click on "show workplace/house", it leaves the villager's window and opens the workplace/house one.
If I am focusing on the villager and its needs, I am usually trying to see where he lives/works and I don't really care about his neighbors/coworkers.
So that's annoying to have to find him again in those windows.

*Suggest : *

• 1.1 - Simple "Click" on "show workplace/house" => Opening wp/house's window and camera follow-up + Closing VIllager's window (Current logic)
• 1.2 - "Shift + Click" on "show workplace/house" => Opening wp/house's window and camera follow-up (without closing the villager's one)
  -> Then we can have villager's + wp's + house windows
• 1.3 - "Ctrl + Click" on "show workplace/house" => Simple Camera Follow-up

** N*2 : Smarter Info-bars/ popups**

When little info bars pops (no pathway / no [whatever] access) and you click, the camera only follow the person.
That's cool, but I directly want to know who is it** and camera follow up doesn't give me hints on where the villager is living / working**

*Suggest : *

• *2.1 * - Simple Click on info-popup => Camera Follow up (Current logic)
  *2.2 * - when I shift + click on info-popup => open the villager's window directly ( adding to the camera follow-up)
  -> *2.2.1 * - Continuing shift + clicking the info-popup => it continues opening other villager's window (without closing previous ones).
  That would be easier to see where problems are situated.

• *2.3 * - ctrl + click opens villager's window but closes previous one if I continue clicking on info-popup (only one window remaining).

• *2.4 * - Any combination reset the popup' timer so that it stays longer in the UI.

• *2.5 * - * EASY ACCESS TO NEWCOMERS *
  It was in the Early access but got deleted I think, it was so nice ! Popup when newcomers arrive is so good, I am exhausted of trying to find my village center
  Even just a keyboard shortcut to access town's center would be nice ( I know the Click on Happiness trick)

** N*3 : Workplace/House windows**

• • 3.1 * - Show the villagers tiers (serf/commoner) on their little icon (much easier to find a villager)

Here the Current logic is strange as currently clicking on villager's icons => opens villager's window without removing anything.
That's actually smart because I want to know what everyone is doing, who they are and if I can promote them.
So no needs to be changed if we want to continue in this new logic.

• • 3.2 * - Ctrl + Click on villagers Icon => Simple camera followup on said Villagers (to check what they are doing)

** N*4 : Camera speed**
I love doing big cities, I dont love roaming seconds, with slow camera movement to attend newcomers ( as stated previously) so :

• *4.1 * - Shift + [W/S/A/D] => Moooooooore Camera speeeeeeeed

** THE END **

Thank you for your attention, for the game, and the mods.
Please let me know wich suggestion is your fav in the comments

Hello,

Even just a keyboard shortcut to access town's center would be nice
You can press the "Home" button to view the Village Center.
