Creating 10.000 Connected Hexagon Page?

I am trying to create 10.000 hexagon connected each other like bee combs.I want to create all of this as a element that after I can import some thing to inside them.But for connec

Solution 1:

Creating a rectangular grid is fairly obvious - just skew a rectangular grid ( either skew it all and get a parallelogram, then use modulo to wrap it, or skew alternate rows/columns to create a rectangular grid ).

Creating a hexagon filled with hexagons is fairly easy too

• in the n th rank, there are 6 bars of n hexes
• the centres of adjacent hexes are displaced twice the distance of the midpoint of one of the faces to the centre

So if you have the x & y co-ordinates of your hexes in two arrays, polyX and polyY, you get a nested loop:

drawHex ( g, cx, cy, 0 );

    for ( int rank = 1; rank < count; ++rank ) {

        for ( int bar = 0; bar < 6; ++bar ) {
            // x and y are twice midpoint of the previous face * the rank away // from centreint x = cx + ( polyX [ ( bar + 4 ) % 6 ] + polyX [ ( bar + 5 ) % 6 ] ) * rank;
            int y = cy + ( polyY [ ( bar + 4 ) % 6 ] + polyY [ ( bar + 5 ) % 6 ] ) * rank;

            // move by twice the distance of the midpoint of the next face each time int dx = polyX [ bar ] + polyX [ ( bar + 1 ) % 6 ];
            int dy = polyY [ bar ] + polyY [ ( bar + 1 ) % 6 ];

            for ( int hex = 0; hex < rank; ++hex ) {
                drawHex ( g, x, y, rank );
                x += dx;
                y += dy;
            }
        }
    }
