Slaihne, how do you go over not good float precision?
You use player coordinates (when we start new game we select start coords from [~17k; ~45k]) such near to bugs with precision. In my engine they are about 50k.
P.s. you use +17k coords because engine can't work with negative coords, aren't you?

I'll probably have issues with float precision at some stage since i haven't done anything out of the ordinary to deal with it. I'll probably end up moving over to an int / float pair to hold coordinates, or something similar.

And yes, my engine doesn't like negative coords. Well to be precise, it doesn't like the cross over from 1 to -1.
