-- This module stores chunks as they are generated, keeping their left_top coordinate in an arrayed table.
-- An event is raised on each chunk stored that other modules can hook on to.

-- When 0.17 is released, this module should be modified take advantage of the on_chunk_deleted event in order to remove entries from the table
