Description

Hi, I notice that my area features that I generated to mbtiles has an offset in their positioning when viewed closeup. Is this normal?

tippecanoe -f --no-tile-size-limit --no-simplification-of-shared-nodes --no-tiny-polygon-reduction --no-line-simplification --minimum-zoom=18 --maximum-zoom=18 -o /tippecanoe/Land.mbtiles /tippecanoe/Land.geojson

Research direction

Reproduce the reported offset using the command in the issue with /tippecanoe/Land.geojson and inspect the resulting /tippecanoe/Land.mbtiles at close zoom. Compare the generated feature positions with the source geometry and establish whether the offset is expected or indicates a bug; completion requires a confirmed explanation or a reproducible fix.
