Add the following subrule under “fire walls”:
Each program has 1,000 “Bytes” as a currency, tracked under the GNDT. The basic commands that can only be used by buying and using “consoles”, represented by 2-by-2 ASCII with the character “c”, at least one character which must be adjacent to the “core”, or a “power line”, represented by “L”, which can connect to the core, other power lines, and allow adjacent consoles to work. Once again, these consoles and power lines can only be used on the program which has brought them. Power lines cost 25 Bytes, while each console cost 200 Bytes. 300 Byte is gained by a program when they successfully disable (“Breach”) another program’s core.
We can work on exactly what the consoles are later, but I trust this idea is simple and understandable.
card:
1. why have 1000 bytes when the lowest buyable thing is 25 bytes and all of the numbers are divisible by 25?
also this doesn’t really explain how buying them works formally enough; such as this sentence “The basic commands that can only be used by buying and using “consoles” ” which I don’t understand fully. What do you mean by commands, using them and so on. It might make sense, even if it is a bit wordy, if the groundwork was laid down for it first.
