I'm working on the placement of E-W oriented hexes and having the damnedest time shifting them left and right.
Here's how the math looks:
On a Hexagon with each side's length as 1 unit:
The vertical distance between the top-most vertex and its neighbor is 1/2.
The horizontal distance between the top-most vertex and its neighbor is SQRT(3)/2.
So, on the map board, every other row of hexes needs to be offset SQRT(3)/2 units on the X axis.
The problem:
The code in GUIHex is setting the center of each hex as a java.awt.Point. Point's constructor only allows for an integer-based coordinate assignment.
So, by the look of it, this hex code won't support E-W oriented hexes.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on how to fix this?
