Well, there is nothing to explain. It is just a magic/bucket number that is a function of latitude and longitude of the tile and is used to index scenery tiles. A tile being a 1/8 of a degree at the equator but its width shrink to 1/4 and 1/2 when the longitude increase ( in absolute value ). The number is computed in simgear/bucket/newbucket.[hc]xx -Fred _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
