Simple Hexagonal Packing Within A Circle by jneilliii

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

This is an extremely simplified version of Circle Packing algorithm for filling the area of a circle with other circles. It by no means is anywhere near as complicated or accurate as real-world circle packing algorithms and I'm sure could be improved upon as my OpenScad skills are fairly new and i'm sure the math could be cleaned/simplified. It creates a hexagonal grid of points at which we draw a circle on. Based completely on the work @ Red Blog Games and ported to OpenSCAD, specifically the Movement Range section.
