// Gem stone totem socket.

/*
The Totem is a type of key-door that holds onto its corresponding
Gemstone. When a doodad holding the right Gemstone touches the
totem, the totem takes the gemstone and activates.

If the Totem is not linked to any other Totems, it immediately
sends a power(true) signal upon activation.

If the Totem is linked to other Totems, it waits until all totems
have been activated before it will emit a power signal. Only one
such totem needs to be linked to e.g. an Electric Door - no matter
which totem is solved last, they'll all emit a power signal when
all of their linked totems are activated.
