Yes it does...

I repeat:

"If a player owns a DimShip and has launched it, then rules that check eir
dimension values will check the values of eir virtual dimensions."

So how does the DimShip know my current DimSpace location? It must check.
And get the combined effects of my actual values and my other DimShips.
