It would be nice to be able to assign tasks with different priorities.
For example, if there's more than one building set to build, we could set higher priority to one of them so they focus on one building at a time.
It would be useful for **Mining **too. So they mine one area after another.
Could be something similar to Urgent Haul. Or take Dwarf Fortress as reference.

An generic solution could be adding tasks to a queue so they are completed in the order they were created.
For construction, if I plan the walls and floors for one house, and then another house, they would complete the first house before starting the second.
For mining, you could thing what order you create the mining tasks in, so that settlers don't get trapped or end up with unreachable mining tasks.
The queue would take priority unless unreachable. And there would be a queue for each task type.
