Reword the paragraph in the rule “Location” that begins “Each Location has an Action…” to read as follows:
If a Villager’s Location is set to a Location X, then that Villager may be said to be in, at, or occupying X. Each Location may have an associated Task (defaulting to no Task) that Villagers may perform only while occupying that Location; if a Location has a Task, it must also have a listed Task Cost. To perform it, a Villager must undertake an Atomic Action with the following steps:
* Pay the Task Cost
* Carry out the instructions in the TaskNo Villager may undertake the Action associated with a Location if that Location is draughty.
Rename the columns “Actions” and “Action Cost” in the Locations table to “Task” and “Task Cost” respectively, considering each Location’s preexisting Action to be its new Task, and its preexisting Action Cost to be its new Task Cost.
I haven’t figured out the scam in it yet myself, but there’s an awful lot of wiggle room in these right now about how and when action costs get paid, what being in a Location means, and whether you can start one and then start another before finishing the first.
but I don’t think there’s as much wiggle room as this proposal implies. If something has a cost, it implicitly gets defined as an atomic action.
