[ka-Map-users] kaMap.js setTile routine being invoked many more times then I expect?

[Paul Spencer]

Samuel,

setTile is called once for each tile on each layer.  Depending on  
your tile size and viewport size, you could have as many as 20-30  
tiles per layer.  The minimum number of tiles per layer would be 9 (3  
wide and 3 high) but typically ends up being larger.  Don't forget  
that there are some tiles off screen.  For instance, if your viewport  
is 600 x 600 pixels and your tiles are 200x200, you will likely end  
up with 5 or 6 tiles wide and 5 or 6 tiles high, thus 25-36 tiles per  
layer.

Cheers

Paul
