"Unassigned workers" should be indicated differently from other issues on the "Tribe" screen #370

Description
Any camp that has any issue or event going on has an exclamation mark placed next to it on the "tribe" screen. One of the possible issues is "Unassigned workers." Unfortunately, by the time the player is up to 6-8 large camps, no camp can go more than a few minutes without an illness or other event that un-assigns workers. Going around to every camp after every expedition just to re-assign 1-2 workers isn't worth the time it takes. So in practice, most camps have unassigned workers most of the time. As a result, every camp has an exclamation mark, making it hard to find the important info.

Proposal: Unassigned workers are already indicated on the Tribe screen by a number in parentheses next to the population. Thus, the exclamation point is already redundant for this case, and can simply be removed.

Expanded proposal: Add color-coded exclamation marks. A green exclamation point can indicate a positive event (trader, recruit, etc) while a red one can indicate a negative event (damaged building, etc). A camp with at least one positive and one negative event would have both a red and green exclamation mark. Hovering over either mark would still give a list of all events on that floor.
