Proposal: I like to move it, move it

If the “Retheme” proposal fails, this proposal does nothing.

Add a new rule “Working on the Machines” with the text:

Each Worker may have a Current Machine he is working on. The number of the Current Machine is tracked in the GNDT. If a Worker has no Current Machine, he may choose any.

Set Current Machine for Workers who have established some Power Links to their Reference Point (that is, the outcome of their last navigation).

To the subrule “Power Links” append

If there is a Power Link between a Worker’s Current Machine and another Machine Y, that Worker may for 1 Quota move to the Machine Y by setting his Current Machine number to Y.

If the proposal “Movement” passes, replace

When a Worker performs a Shift Change, they activate a Machine

in the subrule “Translocation” with

When a Worker performs a Shift Change, they activate their Current Machine

I’d like to track the Reference Point and reuse established links to move faster.

Part of the original idea was to not keep track of location at all, so anyone is free to work anywhere.

Then maybe the rule “Navigation” needs to be reworded so as to allow to choose arbitrary Reference Point each time? It seems that now if a Worker has established at least one link, he has a Refernece Point, and may establish new links only nearby.

quirck: By my reading, it doesn’t work that way (see “For each navigation except for the first, the Reference Point shall be the outcome of the previous navigation, or a Dynasty adjacent to it, at the option of the Time Buddha.”), but if you want to submit a proposal to clarify, please do!
