gollark: See, you need giant banks of dense energy cells to power big spatial frames, and why not only use *one*?
gollark: Wait, I just had a great idea, automatically switching toggle buses on and off to send spatial IO power stores to different systems.
gollark: If spatial IO didn't require so much power storage - or I could use several on one network - I would use it more. I made spatial IO teleporters one time, that was cool.
gollark: Subchunks?
gollark: Compact Machines: Making crazy compacted automation fun!
