Proposal: Atomic Inaction

Timed out 2 votes to 3. Failed by Kevan.

Adminned at 05 Feb 2018 09:37:55 UTC

In “Atomic Actions”, amend “and they may not take any other action defined in the Ruleset until all such steps are complete” to:

and they may not take any other action defined in the Ruleset (however, the actions required for the steps themselves ignore that restriction provided that they’re being performed as part of the Atomic Action) until all such steps are complete

If we make Atomic actions which involve doing other actions which are already defined elsewhere - you actually can’t do them. Because they’re defined elsewhere in the ruleset.

For example, Cractions, like the Fuelcan Craction (it’s defined over at the list of Supplies). This fixes that.

I don’t believe this is necessary since an atomic action consists of its steps; however since this simply clarifies something implicit from that rule—why would an action be defined in such a way that it couldn’t ever be used?—I’ll for

against for now, given that one player is getting scam flashbacks and the other doesn’t think it’s necessary.
