    If you visit the same map on www.shroudoftheavatar.com/map are the lots misaligned in the same way? I suspect this is not a linux-only issue, but rather a data issue I'll look into.

    Appears as though the Brookside lots are flipped on the x-axis data wise. Looking into a fix.

    Thank you. A LOT of maps have this bug. Can you either go through them all or better yet, look into what's causing it so a manual fix will be unnecessary?

    In the past I have detailed why this is not an easy (nor a quick) fix. It involves a lot of coordinate transformations and such that are non-trivial. I've slowly been trying to get the lots sorted out but my top priority for the map is making sure that the avatar location and rotation are working.

    It's just a guess, but it might be that the orriginal transform metadata is being lost somewhere along the way between content creation and publication. The most likely case is if metadata stripping is after compression rather than before. This can cause this exact error, as some compression techniques use these exact lossless transforms then use metadata to reverse it.
