[Opensim-users] A Couple Of Not Important Questions About Megaregions

[Sarge Misfit]

Thanks.

I understand that any hole would be undefined and so would be treated like
the rest of the world with no flying through. I was wondering more if the
surrounding regions would still be a megregion. Not sure why anyone would
want a hole, just curious about what might happen. Although, a person could
do one of those 'offshore' things, and then run a huge race track ....
hmmmm .... Maybe there are reasons :-)

Thanks for the info about the ports, a friend asked about separate
continents after I sent the original email, so I will forward that to them.

*grins* Already knew about the SW first requirement, though when I first
started messing with megaregions it took a bit to wrap my head around.
Until I remembered high school math and plotting on graphs and such (you
were right, Mr. Douglas, I am using 'that stuff' *chuckles*)
