Standard actions which move the actor
Going , Entering , Exiting , Getting off

Exiting (past tense exited)

Whereas the going action allows people to move from one location to another in the model world, and the entering action is for movement deeper inside the objects in a location, the exiting action is for movement back out towards the main floor area. Climbing out of a cupboard, for instance, is an exiting action. Exiting when already in the main floor area of a room with a map connection to the outside is converted to a going action. Finally, note that whereas entering works for either containers or supporters, exiting is purely for getting oneself out of containers: if the actor is on top of a supporter instead, an exiting action is converted to the getting off action.
