Radii are in tiles. Here are some usefull values:
1600 <-- 25 sectors
3160 <-- all the way from The Blimp to Shrouded Hills
6400 <-- 100 sectors
33550 <-- all the way from Shrouded Hills to Tarant

When referencing a chart, the code uses the smallest circle that
includes the current location. This gives the effect of smaller
circles being on top of larger circles.

Frequency Chart

Power Chart -- Easy/Average/Powerful
{20000}{32, 32, 64, Powerful} //Sample

Encounter Tables:

Table Description: Frequency %, Critter Count, Base Proto Num, MinLevel: <value>, MaxLevel: <value>, GlobalFlag: <value>, TriggerCount: <value>
Note: Frequencies do *NOT* have to add up to 100%, it will roll based on how many it actually gets

(terrain - 1) * (powerMax - 1) * timeOfDayMax +
(power - 1) * timeOfDayMax +
timeOfDay

2 * 3 * 9 = 54 terrain based tables
2 * 3 = 6 tables per terrain
