-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Yes, mapping them as a circle does entail a bit more data storage requirements but it also means that we get the size of the hut which is useful for lots of things. The extra storage is not unreasonable and buildings entered as single points are not rendered by most rendering styles, so mapping them as an area is definitely the way to go.
