Hi Rob,
It appears that the code that computes how many rings of tiles to load is
perhaps not doing that correctly any more? Originally the code would ensure
that enough tiles were loaded to cover the visibility range so that the end
of the world would blend seamlessly into the fox color which matched the
base of the sky color and you didn't see these artifacts.
Regards,
Curt.
