Footnotes

gollark: In hindsight, I could probably make it work properly if it did X/Y separately.
gollark: If anyone wants it, enjoy.
gollark: When I added conditions, it went hilariously slowly.
gollark: It wasn't toruses, I just had it generate the path by directly operating on the cell position, and I forgot the % 10 condition so it could go up/down and over the edges incorrectly.
gollark: Then apparently it went hilariously slowly, since I guess it went out of the range of its optimizations.
