Proposal: Factory Inspection

Timed out and enacted, 5-4. Josh

Adminned at 19 Jan 2022 22:03:46 UTC

In the rule “Boring Box Company”, replace the sentence starting with “A box has properties” with:

A box has properties for material, size, and value.

In “Manufacturing”, replace the atomic action to produce a box with:

* Choose any material from the materials table.
* Choose any integer from 1 to 10 (inclusive) for the size of the box.
* Multiply the material’s value by the box’s size to determine the box’s value.
* Add the new box to the Warehouse.
* Decrease the company budget by the value of the box.

We noticed the machines were behaving erratically, sometimes failing to produce boxes. You should find that you have much finer control over them now. Rest assured, you’re not in any danger! We wouldn’t let anything happen to our most promising crew yet.

I do too in all honesty, but Manufacturing can just… fail to make a box sometimes, and it’s far more likely with more valuable boxes, so it may be best to push this through and add the randomness back in later or in another area.

Please note that this removes all option generation form Manufacturing.
