Make warnings actionable

[reactormonk]

The warnings on top of the screen (e.g. low morale or health, etc) are currently just looking nice. It would be cool if they were clickable and jump to the corresponding screen to help out. E.g. talents => go to the next crew who needs a talent trained. Health => List next port with medical facilities. Craft => craft assignment screen

except most of those can have different info on them: hyper warp red icon can mean your hyper warp is damaged or not enough fuel. what screen would be helpfull here if youre in middle of transit? you do see what facilities are available on nearby planets by just looking at them.
craft can be: no pilot assigned, damaged craft, everything ok: 2/3 cases would be without anything to do, and assign pilot screen is already accesable by ship > craft.
empty crew space warning icon wont also take you anywhere, because you need planet to fix that.
the same with morale and health warnings, the ship pool under 100% warnings.
only one that woud really be clickable is the 'level up/talent is ready to train" but then you press crew manifest button or t and you are there already.

Yep -- we've tried various implementations of this a few times. We will keep working on improving the UI and incorporating player feedback!

Sorry we haven't been able to get this one to work yet. Two people, minimal budget.

Take your time. I'm mostly tossing ideas over the fence and I'm curious to see what happens.
