P.P.P.S.
I brought this up in my post but, I currently have 0 food in storage, but I 'should' have two food in the course of my next action. Can I trade one food away on the basis that the food will be available during my next turn? And can the recipient eat that food to prevent themselves starving on the turn that it was created?
 I am aware that there is a half production event out there that could cause me to starve as a result of this trade...

it is my understanding that if you complete the grow food action THIS turn, the food will be available for trade and seeing as you eat food AFTER all actions are completed neither party should starve.

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

(to rephrase, with combined actions, such as teach/learn and socialise, do they have to be started or finished on the same turn as their partner actions? Or can they succeed based purely upon having some overlap in their performed times...)
You can finish putting points into it "whenever", but it counts as in-progress until the other person has put in their last point as well.

So say you have a teacher with two students. This will cost him 6 actions. Each of the students will need to spend 2.

Turn one, one student spends 2, teacher spends 3, the other student spends nothing. Nothing happens.

Next turn, if teacher or student cancels, the student effort is wasted. If the teacher spends another 3 actions, and the final student STILL doesn't contribute, we have student1 complete, and teacher complete, so student one gets his tech at end of turn. However, the teacher, if he still wants to teach student 2, needs to hold on to that and avoid canceling it until student 2 is finished.

On the food topic:
You can decide who food goes to when it's grown. So yeah you should be fine.

Glyph, you should really release some research enabling us to counter starvation, or someone will probably die in the next XX turns...
Nah we can make it...And suffer...
Appeal to mod mercy!
You guys knew this was in the deck, and really should have dedicated a bit more time and effort to cheering up after last time. I'm not going to punish the players who prepared by letting everyone else off the hook.
I love being utterly new XD

Welp. Edited action btw.

Is anyone still teaching?

Edit: As I'm still asking, could I inquire about the full use of Coins? They seem like a conversion of 1 AP = 1 TIme point, now an item. Is it like an investment, something to be used for a later time in case we discover new ideas/research projects?

Nay forgot about 1 action in progress for some reason. May I spend 1 time instead at mine?

Well, you're bonus is a kind heart and a meaningful hand for those who are too depressed to do anything.

I'll take you up on that socialization - if it's ok with you.

And there's chaos when push comes to shove, but it's music to my ears.

you just get more happiness when at 10. max happiness= the most you ever had. Note that raising happiness above 19 is a bad idea due to the way Basic Dissatisfaction works.

I'll let you choose which one you want to continue this turn. But no swapping points between them.

That's just confirmation bias, I'm afraid- it's actually turn 14.
