[Opensim-dev] World map - map doesnt load on large grids

[Teravus Ovares]

Normally the client sends a post to one of the map CAPs, and then
sends a bunch of UDP requests.    On OSGrid, in the 10,000 range, the
client just posts to the map CAP unless you click in an empty maptile
space.    Since no requests are made, no maptiles show.     The hack
is that when the client posts to the map cap, immediately send the map
data for 10 spaces above and below the region the avatar is currently
in.
