[Opensim-dev] Megaregion tiles on the map and the prim count in megaregions.

Could be.

Think it is somehow related though. Hope one of the developers with more
knowledge of the opensim core will fix this.

I find the megaregions awsome. There is no delay when crossing sim borders
and I have found 1 megaregion is less laggy than 16 normal regions. It shows
all the regions at once. So no grey textures when I fly from one corner to
the other.

The setup of the regions for a megarion is tricky though. There does not
seem to be a warning when the regions are not set up correctly.

When you have got a 2x2 region lets say:

cd
ab

then you can add anther region, but the a region has to be the lower left
region (the root region)

so you should be able to add reigons like:

cdy
abx

xy
cd
ab

but not:

ycd
xab

cause this would change the root region, the region where the prims reside.

I have not tried adding a singe region. In theory that should also function.

I am not sure if it is important, but I set the regions in correct order in
the regions.ini file first a then b then c then d.
When adding xy like

cdy
abx

Then I would order the file like a then b then x then c then d then y.

The root region makes sence, since negative prim coordinates are not handy.
A prim in region y could for instance get coordinates (600,600,30)
