Subject: Use server as authoritative source of truth for tiles in the center
X-Git-Url: https://git.cworth.org/git?a=commitdiff_plain;h=402c8489c040d664d6dccb919768d5d2ec310b97;p=lmno-server

Use server as authoritative source of truth for tiles in the center

Clients were trying to track the central state on their own and
getting out of synch. Let's stick to "server as authoritative"
as a principle.
