An example for the Discord channel. This isn't set up with a very intuitive interface, as I cobbled it together in all of about 10 minutes quick work. I doubt anyone will learn anything from this, without popping into discord and actually chatting with me in person so I can help walk through what we're doing and why in a life-time session. It's just easier to share code of this length here, than it is there, but it's easier there to actually discuss it in real time so I can answer questions and such as we go. My apologies to anyone who finds this confusing or a waste of time. ;D
