gollark: But if you don't want configuration and do want moving devices it's an evilly complex problem.
gollark: Routing is at least not too complex if you have a bunch of devices in fixed positions and are okay with manually configuring the layout, it's basically just pathfinding.
gollark: The naive approach used by rednet and current jnet does sort of *work*, but it doesn't really scale well to complex setups.
gollark: The hard part would be sane routing. Which is really hard.
