[status] -> []


(* Walls are immobile, empty spaces are no obstacle. *)

[Wall] -> [Wall Cannot_Move]
[no object] -> [no object Can_Move]

StartLoop

(* The first time through, an object checks to see whether it is blocked, unblocked, or ambiguous. *)

[> object no status | Can_Move] -> [> object Can_Move| Can_Move]
[> object no status | Cannot_Move] -> [object Cannot_Move | Cannot_Move]
[> object no status | Waiting] -> [> object Waiting | Waiting]

(* If there is something in the way, the momentum is transfered forward, and the object waits to figure out if the path ahead is blocked or clear. *)

[> object no status | object no status] -> [> object Waiting| > object Check_Next] (* This may change depending on mechanic *)

(* An object that is waiting checks to see if the block ahead of it has been decided yet. *)

[> object Waiting | Can_Move] -> [> object Can_Move| Can_Move]
[> object Waiting | Cannot_Move] -> [object Cannot_Move | Cannot_Move]

 
(* An object that can definitely move will transfer movement to its neighbors *)
