That last sentence should include multiple equidistant donuts as well.

I really think you mean MO here... SO is Stationary Object. If donuts 
are SOs, then they cannot move. I'm not sure what happens if a player 
finds emself in possession of an SO, but I'll bet it's not pleasant.

Does this mean that if you commit a crime, get a donut, move near a 
cop, and then lose the donut, you cease to be Wanted, even though you 
still committed the crime?
