[Opensim-users] Making a megaregion then going to tp to it ending up in one corner unble to move or tp

[Fleep Tuque]

I don't see an informational page about Megaregions on the Opensim wiki,
just one about how to set them up:
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Setting_Up_Mega-Regions

I'm not very experienced with Megaregions since I only played with one
briefly the first time I installed Diva Distro, but it seems like questions
about them are very common on the list.  Perhaps someone who has a good
handle on all the quirks and differences between standard regions and
megaregions could try to document it better on the Opensim wiki so we can
refer folks to a better resource?
