I miss the old Profession system, here's a way to bring back its priotities assistance

[WalterMatthau]

The old Professions tab had a box in the top right corner. I think it said "Auto assign priorities".

 

Checking it would retain an increased priority upon a priority tab wipe based on current profession. Since its removal, micromanaging priorities at the individual dupe level has become a chore.

 

Professions are gone, but we still have hats!

 

Bring back the auto-assign box, and move the trigger to the selected hat! Easy! Now when you board wipe the priorities tab after an important project, you can still have someone cooking or researching or tinkering without having to issue every single command!
