Also, wierd, just curious but when you say "plane", do you mean a mathematical plane or one that flies? I'm having slight difficulty wrapping my head around it.
Heh, he means — I mean I guess I can't say for sure, but I'm fairly confident that he means — a flat, as opposed to curving, surface, which is to say, a mathematical face.

ETA: (ffff, against my better judgement I went back and read the previous page after seeing Tiruin continue to lie and patronise in Discord, and, let's just say, Tiruin has Tiruin's own ideas about what went on and they don't apparently have to have any correlation to reality.)

Or maybe it's a misspelling of 'plain'? As in, "you can't call this surface a datum, because it's not plane[sic]. It's way too fancy!".

You could always try to talk to Tiruin and fix things.

I'm hoping to, but our wildly divergent time zones make it difficult. Still, I'm not sure how much good it'll do, anymore. It always seemed like Tiruin and I had trouble communicating, and up until now I thought it was just your basic Wittgenstein "if a lion could talk, we wouldn't understand him" problem of totally incompatible cultural backgrounds, but, in spite of my best effort, I can't take this new exchange as anything other than intentionally malicious distortion. It's tremendously disappointing.

Thaaaaat said, I put that in small text for a reason, haha. I just wanted to, you know, register my objection rather than let Tiruin's characterisation go unchallenged; I'd rather let the matter drop out of this particular thread for now.)

Hard to imagine Tiruin acting maliciously towards a plant, let alone another person. Really the last person you'd think of here.

 I'm sure commication issues were the cause.

Frankly it's less complex then that. Someone acts like an asshole, gets called out, and then is offended on being called out.

If you don't want people to think you're an asshole, don't act like an asshole.

Funnily enough it was full of yorkie skin. Like, a bulk amount.
I'm trying to imagine some interplanetary boutique handbag/accessories store selling only goods made from flayed puppers.   
Hah, I've been playing Rimworld too the past few days. Getting myself hyped up for the 1.0 release.
It's good fun. I've just started a new game with a rather interesting story, courtesy of the RNG. Does it count as 'emergent storytelling' if said story is just the combination of characters you start off with? Then we had the ex-chieftain of one of the local tribes chased into our logging camp, which was also pretty cool.   

Is the 1.0 release intended to include any major new features, do you know?

Yeah, contributing to discussions on a forum and then freaking out when people make use of the forum software to respond to you is a bit much, agreed. :))

You may be mixing up Tiruin and Truean

No, confusingly enough, I was talking to Tiruin on Discord and she made some vague references, here, to that which seem to me like wildly dishonest distortions. Because I did generally think that Tiruin wouldn't act maliciously toward a plant I may have been slightly angrier about that than was necessary, but in any case I am hoping to talk with her about that. But it was indeed Tiruin and not Truean (who I don't know and whom I've only spoken to once) who was meant.

Okay, well all the drama here was about Truean and quoting...
