I think that we should keep following hearthlings by clicking on the “focus on unit” button and then, choose the camera mod (First person or third person).
It will make the gameplay more immersive in the universe of stonehearth a’d it would be a great feature.
It’s a nice idea, and probably not that hard to do with a bit of modding, but TBH I think that as an official feature it must be a low priority one. I mean, we still don’t have the vikings Northmen in yet, nor all the professions etc.
