Entering something (past tense entered)
Whereas the going action allows people to move from one location to another in the model world, the entering action is for movement inside a location: for instance, climbing into a cage or sitting on a couch. (Entering is not allowed to change location, so any attempt to enter a door is converted into a going action.) What makes entering trickier than it looks is that the player may try to enter an object which is itself inside, or part of, something else, which might in turn be... and so on. To preserve realism, the implicitly pass through other barriers rule automatically generates entering and exiting actions needed to pass between anything which might be in the way: for instance, in a room with two open cages, an actor in cage A who tries entering cage B first has to perform an exiting action.
