gollark: Is poor quality mode actually *playable*? Even my AI™ cannot seem to actually make the thing go up.
gollark: ```javascriptsetInterval(() => { const nextPipe = pipes[0] const nheight = nextPipe.len + nextPipe.gap() // height is apparently from the top console.log(bird.height, nheight) if (bird.height > (nheight - 100)) { jump = true }}, 100)start()```
