In the rule “Codons”, replace “Some Codons may be assigned to one or more Rooms, Organisms, and/or Genetic Engineers. There is a publicly tracked table that lists all such assignments.” with the following text:
Codons have either zero Preferences, or one or more publicly-tracked Preferences, each of which may be a Room, an Organism, or a Genetic Engineer. Any Codon that does not have one or more publicly-tracked Preferences is considered to have zero Preferences. The effect of a Preference when applied to that Codon is either defined in other rules, or if not defined, that Preference has no effect.
Rename “Assigned to” to “Preference” in the gamestate.
This has the same mechanical effect as Lukas’ previous Proposal, but I think it’s a more thematically-appropriate way of stating it. Simply put, a Codon’s Preference allows it to be more impactful when the Preference applies, i.e. a Codon that’s particularly adapted to a certain Room or certain Organism, or even a certain Genetic Engineer.
I don’t really see the distinction, but I don’t mind changing the wording either.
