Editing Cycle 17/Ruleset (section)

== Items ==
Items are entities defined as such by the rules. Items can be owned by players and are stored in their inventory. When an item's owner cannot reasonably be determined using publicly available information, or if it would be owned by a non-player, it is instead destroyed.

Items with similar properties may be grouped together into item classes.

For an entity to gain an item is for that item to be created in that entity's possession. To grant an entity an item is to create it in that entity's possession.

For an entity to lose an item is for that item to be destroyed from that entity's possession. To revoke an item from an entity is to destroy it from that entity's possession.

Reputable players may trade items from their inventories with the consent of all parties.

=== Inventory ===
Each player has an inventory containing all of the items they possess.

==== Trading ====
A trade is an exchange or transfer of items between two entities, with each entity giving a specified finite set of items to the other.

When otherwise authorized, a trade between two players takes place when both players explicitly consent to the trade in #trades within 7 days of each other.

==== Trading ====
Unless otherwise specified, items can be given from their owner to any other valid owner by announcement.

==== Using items ====
If an item specifies an ability to be used, that item can be used by the player that owns it by posting to #⁠game-actions, specifying the item, and any other required details. When used, the item takes effect as specified in its description, then the item is destroyed. If an item's description references "you", it refers to the player who used the item. If it implies that a player does something, then the player who does it is the player who used the item.

=== Points ===
Points are items.

If a non-integer number of points is present in an inventory the fractional amount is automatically destroyed such that the amount of points is rounded down to the nearest whole integer.

=== Voting Tokens ===
⬆️ and ⬇️ tokens are voting tokens with sentiments in favor or against, respectively. Voting tokens are items. Voting tokens have a corresponding emoji, indicated in their name.

A voting token may be allocated to no more than one standard proposal. A ⬆️ or ⬇️ reaction from a player on a standard proposal at the time immediately before the voting period ends allocates one of their unallocated voting tokens to that proposal if one is available, accounting in the order the proposals were created.

=== Stickers ===
Stickers are items. Stickers cannot be traded after they have been applied. A player may apply stickers they own by posting a message to ⁠game-actions indicating the sticker and an item or player to apply it to. A player may only apply a sticker to themselves, or to any one item in their inventory. The following table defines a sticker with its name alongside its description.”

|}

During an election phase, whenever a player sends a message in #⁠elections, they may choose to gain an "I Voted" sticker. A player can do this at most once per phase.

If a sticker is applied to more than one item, then the items that it is stuck to must be specified by game actions in the same message.

=== Coins ===
Coins are Items. Coins are the official currency of Apeiros.

=== Rocket Fuel ===
Rocket fuel is an item, measured in MUs. The amount of rocket fuel may take fractional amounts.

1MU of rocket fuel will fuel a rocket for 1MU of travel.

A given amount of Cheesified Rocket fuel can be used as if it were 3 times that amount of Rocket fuel.

===Explosives===

Explosives are an item, measured in AFTs (absolute fuck tonnes). 1 AFT is sufficient to destroy a celestial body weighing 1 ET. Explosives may take fractional amounts.

===Lactaid===

Lactaid is an item. Lactaid can be eaten. If Klink would consume a Cheesified item, she must first consume Lactaid.
