Finding adjacent cells in an hex map – part 2

April 27, 2008 • Actionscript 2, Flash, Game design by Emanuele Feronato • 4 Comments

In the Finding adjacent cells in an hex map post I showed you how to find adjacent cells in horizontal hex maps.

Now it’s time to find adjacent cells in vertical hex maps.
