are hexagon tessellations possible in hyperbolic geometry? about hyperbolic-canvas HOT 11 CLOSED

Yes. For example, this.

I intend to eventually add a function which does this automatically.

do squares also work?

Yes.

is it possible to make a hyperbolic hexagon tessellation work with hexagon cordinate systems used in http://www.redblobgames.com/grids/hexagons/ ?

from hyperbolic-canvas.

No, all of those functions would have to be modified, and would depend on which particular hexagonal tiling you want to use.

See the table here for some of the infinitely many options available to you.

I was hoping I would able to use tiled to make levels for my game since it has a hexagonal feature. :(

I know, I just convert hexagonal coordinates -> cartesian cordinates -> polar coordinates. so what the sizes are all fucked up.

the algorithm to convert polar coordinates to Beltrami–Klein coordinates is d=tanh(distance);x=sin(angle) * d;y=sin(angle) * d; right?

from hyperbolic-canvas.

I don't know anything about the Beltrami–Klein model except that it is not compatible with the Poincaré model.

I don't know of any hyperbolic coordinate system apart from what I have called "hyperbolic polar coordinates," which consist of a hyperbolic distance from the origin, and an angle.

To convert polar coordinates to hyperbolic polar coordinates:

angle = angle
hyperbolicDistance = 2 * atanh(distance)

This is implemented in the Point.getHyperbolicRadius function in Point.js.

Some guy told me that was the method for Beltrami–Klein. I just thought you might know. I'll just try it. If it doesn't work, ask somewhere else.

your code is shit
