*README for Reject to Portal*
*****************************

Author: Sgeo (modifications to CL code)
Tester: Chibity

This agent is a modification of "immigrant checker.cos" that changes 
the way the game handles incoming norns. Normally, if you send a norn
that is then rejected by the recipient, it always comes back to you
through the Containment Chamber, even if suitable portals are open.
This agent causes such norns to enter through an applicable portal if
possible. This is useful if, e.g. you want to have a world that has a 
portal that is set to receive from and send to "any online user"
Normally, if someone rejects a norn coming from your world, it would go
to the Containment Chamber, causing an inconvenience, and making it
more difficult to, e.g. just watch the world without interfering.
With this agent, rejected norns go straight to portals.

**************
*How it works*
**************

The piece of code that unconditionally accepts rejects is moved to
right before the Containment Chamber is tried. It will be accepted
before that point if a suitable portal is found. Also, the
unconditional rejection of norns from foe's is modified to make sure
that it is not a reject.
