Conversation
Added square rotated 45 degrees, truncated square tiling, tetrakis square, triangular tiling, trihexagonal tiling and rhombille tiling with rhombus. Inspired by these uniform tilings: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Euclidean_uniform_tilings

Hm, I can understand triangle, but how others can be useful? I don't think anyone is using these other tilings in their games |
|
Hi, i put these tilings on the map to allow people use and see these different tilings. These tilings are also used in games, both videogames and board games. Tetrakis square and truncated square tiling (long list): Truncated square: Triangular tiling: Rhombus / rhomboid / rhombille grid: |

Yes, it can be used in some abstract games, but I don't really see any real usage for the generated map. We can keep it, but would need to fix issues like that: 
Also would need to think what does "distance between cells" mean in this context:

That finer line in rhombille is made using this code. |
|
No, it's the fact that you have a viewport with stroke width not being considered. It should be, as well as bevel |
|
@Avengium, are you going to complete this? |
|
Yeah. I want to continue this. How do I accomplish what I'm missing here? |
|
You need to fix the beforementioned issues |
|
Could you explain to me in a way that helps me why those lines have different thicknesses and how to fix these different issues? |
It looks a part of the stroke width is out of the viewbox and getting cut. Also I still don't think this tilling is useful. |
The stroke width of: - Tetrakis square. - Truncated square. - Triangle tiling. - Rhombille tiling. Now has all the same stroke width.

Fixed stroke width of line in style grid for the added tilings in this request. |

Type of change
Versioning
I didn't change any text on versioning.
The files have the same version, so you can decide the scale of the version and which number do you want to put as version.
If you want to merge this change with another ones to make a version with more changes, you can do that too.
Do as you see fit.
