gollark: Anyway, AR is too multiblocky, the vast amount of planets aren't very interesting, I don't actually care about designing a custom rocket, and having to research planets or something is annoying.
gollark: So, anyway, would you "host" this "modpack" or an approximation thereof? Heavpoot's server is bad and laggy (some offense).
gollark: Anyway, "heav"poot, having to restart the game whenever I die is not optimal.
