gollark: Unfortunately, we don't have [REDACTED], so I can't really do non-euclidean spaces without (very obvious) spatial IO hacks.
gollark: Why would I just rebuild that? It would be cooler to make a giant sprawling messy complex.
gollark: Also suspiciously easy door locks.
gollark: That gives me an idea - I should make some sort of giant potatOS research complex on CN and pack it with random dangerous machinery, valuable loot, and warning signs.
gollark: They should set these games in the GTech PotatOS Research Laboratories™ instead.
