gollark: <@237328509234708481> How do you get around the issue of it being basically impossible to test out-of-game?
gollark: Time to steal code from Artist!
gollark: Wait, my lazier method might actually be the cause of some odd behavior which might be a bug... to the IDE, once SC comes up for testing!
gollark: Also, it probably wouldn't inherit whatever magic slot-splitting behavior you have now.
gollark: 1. I'm lazy (though yes, admittedly, you probably are)2. It'd be slower to manually find the slot(s) with free space.
