First you haveto set up the flow control vars, and repeatedly test them in that big stacked if-elsif-endif mess in the life function. Be sure to verify isinside(cat), islocked(door), possess(me,bed), appropriate(me,time(sleep)), and the all important exists(house,{"roof","walls","floor"}) and not exists(bedroom,{harmful_animals_list,magma})) and not exists.*(bed,{garden,list.aircraft}).
