@wc_sumpton THANK YOU. Checked for that vary thing, but stepped through using the Linux ImageViewer and it skips bad files. Strange it existed because the imageTiler was run a few times after first encounter with the error. I'll check the rest.
Observer error be gone. Uploaded a new neanderthal.zip. Wrapping display conflict still exists. Each loop in a polygons.txt territory definition should get its own display bounding box to determine if it is in the view.
I'm going to concentrate on the game development. Once done, I'll clean up the scripts for public consumption.
