In the rule “Boring Box Company”, change “The Materials Table is a list of Materials and their properties.” to read

The Materials Table is a list of Materials and their properties. A material has a name, a value, and a priority.

Add the following to the subrule “Manufacturing”:

As a Weekday Action, an Employee may tune the machines, by increasing by 1 the priority of a Material on the materials list.

Create a new rule after the rule “Departments”, titled “Automation”:

As a daily communal action, any Employee may work the machines, as this atomic action:
*Randomly choose a material from the materials list, using the priority for each material as the weight of probability of choosing that material. (So if a material has priority 2, and the total of all material priorities is 7, then that material gets a 2/7 chance.)
*If the chosen material is in the list of Orders, choose the smallest size from among its associated sizes on that list. Otherwise, randomly choose a size from the integers 1-10.
*Produce as many boxes, of that material and that size, as can be produced without spending more than the company budget, to a maximum of 3 boxes. To produce a box is to follow the set of steps listed in the atomic action in the subrule “Manufacturing” that are describing how to “produce a box”. (But in this case, doing so doesn’t count as a Weekday Action.)

If the proposal “About Work The Dancefloor” has been enacted, remove “As a Weekday Action,” from the subrule “Manufacturing”.
