Re: [Release] Imperial Astrofactory 2.0
Covering a spherical surface in hexagons makes me think. Is it possible?
Why do footballs have a mix of heagons and pentagons?

Re: [Release] Imperial Astrofactory 2.0
I suspect it’s something to do with being able to form a sphere with them. If you just used hexagons you’d either end up deforming some of the hexagons or not being able to get to a good spherical shape.

Re: [Release] Imperial Astrofactory 2.0
Is something similar "doable" for the Astrofactories?
And how did you do it, anyways?

Is something doable, yes but it would not be truly 3d and you need copyright free 'stickers' images of (bio)domes or industrial-domes-in-space ,
depending how the astro domes are uv mapped results will vary...
Left i used eden-domes and on the right i used valley forge
My examples are currently 2d engineered not actual gameplay...

P.O.C. called SpaceDome, a Dome for the Spacebar rock...
