Navsat tile display inaccuracy #81

Open MoffKalast opened 4 months ago

MoffKalast commented 4 months ago

When moving far away from the fixed frame origin the navsat tile transforms start to slip sideways (most likely) due to WGS84 to metric transformation inaccuracy so tiles don't render properly. It is somewhat questionable if the metric frame would even make sense that far out, since there's typically no accounting for the spherical shape of the ground.
