IFStile 4. and Ultra Fractal 6.04

I exported the raw geometry from IFStile and brought it into Ultra Fractal to add depth and layers. It’s a steep learning curve, but I love how a change in tools shifts the visual language.

An aperiodic tessellation of the hyperbolic plane, found by Toimine in the #tessellations channel in the HyperRogue discord.

These tiles are equilateral, with edge length of 0.56358, which is less than the 0.56626 that was achieved by the regular {7,3} tiling (which was apparently the previous record for a tiling with equilateral convex tiles).

It is also possible to the connect two pentagons by their "bases" to obtain a funky variant of the {8,3} tiling. Then, we can play with the angles -- for "narrow" tiles, the edge length becomes even smaller, about 0.5436.

The animated visualization also shows some new cool features of the RogueViz expression parser: it can now automatically solve for the edge length which makes the tiling work for the given angle \(\alpha\)!
