gollark: What do you mean by "character"?
gollark: That could be interesting, I don't know if there's been much work on doing simulation stuff on dedicated hardware.

gollark: Although they're still confusing to me now and I can't make them work right half the time. I had a nuclear reactor stuck at half power because the water pipes weren't optimized enough.
gollark: Factorio recently improved the fluids a lot, since they were kind of bad and confusing.
