gollark: `gsub` actually returns multiple values. Because Lua, since it's the last thing passed to that function, `table.insert` is passed the string it returns and a number from it. `table.insert` has an overload where it takes `(table, position, value)` or something instead of `(table, value)`.
gollark: The alternative to having it be a GPS server thing would be per-dimension "dimservers" or something providing the dimension name (and possibly server name and metadata), which could work too I guess.]
gollark: The main problem I envision is that I haven't worked out a standard for dimension naming, so it just uses the one it receives the most fixes containing, which can be basically anything the GPS servers want, and that it won't function reliably without a large amount of dimension-enabled GPS servers.
gollark: I've patched dimension support into the GPS libraries in potatOS and my trilaterating GPS server. Would people be interested in dimension support in GPS and/or should I PR it into CC: Tweaked?
