Eniko Foxcan't believe hexagons are just square tiles offset by half a tile every column
Efi (nap pet) 🦊💤@eniko no, hexagons are silly triangles
🇺🇦 haxadecimal 🚫👑@eniko Hexagons are just a ploy by Big Square to sell you more squares, by disguising them a little.
Machine Lord Zero@eniko you stop that
@MachineLordZero i didn't start it
screw_dog@eniko not sure if you care, but https://www.redblobgames.com/grids/hexagons/ is an amazing resource for hexagonal tiling in games
Richard Meredith@screw_dog @eniko +1 on this. Using axial coordinates is *much* more convenient for most algorithmic uses than offset square grid. Square grid is still useful if you need to tightly pack data or if you need to represent in textures etc.

Shine@eniko Oh gods, I remember going through that process when I was developing a frozen bubble clone as an experiment with a new language. I was like "how the hell do I represent a hexagonal pattern structur... Wait a moment, it's just a grid."
Sarah@eniko would you believe that hexagons are the bestagons (I know it's been debunked but it's a good line)
@gaycodegal I don't think hexagons are the bestagons personally
Isaac 'Atridas' Serrano Guasch@eniko triangles, Eni, everything is triangles. Triangles everywhere.
