gollark: `Turtle.digDown` is wrong. `turtle` must be lowercase.
gollark: <@318817623590830080> What my ingame system does for being able to select tracks is have a metadata section at the start of each tape containing the start/end positions of each track.
gollark: * individually
gollark: Switchcraft actually had a radio system too for a while, but it just sent the URLs and had each system inefficiently download DFPWMs indiviudally.
gollark: Wow, that is quite laggy.
