gollark: <@278889690596376576> Maybe a Wyvern/Dragon (or other storage) system? It would mostly be chests and modems though.Or someone's turtle swarm - there are many.Or ARC/hypothetical future 3D Shatter.
gollark: *dun* **dun** __dun__
gollark: The example could be done without that.
gollark: So, squid, *can* you create a 3D-positioned 2D subcanvas or what?
gollark: Just sticking in some "3DCanvas" function to get a usable 2D one working with in-world screenness would be much nicer than manual whatever's.
