    1 MIM unit should equate to the size of one tile in a 2d client.  I'm
not sure what the official size of a 2d client's tile is (in feet).  I've
crossposted to media@ in hopes one of the artists can answer this for us.

    It looks to me like a tile is about a meter square... I'm probably wrong
though :-)  Artists?
