The Definition of Success

Earning money from something is nice, it keeps the wolves from the door. But I prefer to view success as getting something more permanent into the world, that might be an artwork that is shared, or an idea that inspires others toward their own projects.

One edge type is plain, the other edge type has a road piercing the centre. There could be dozens of combinations and permutations for each of the two phases around the hexagonal edges, but a quick look at the variety of buildings and road shapes shows that there could literally be hundreds of possible options when drawing these map fragments. But you certainly don't need to create hundreds of designs for the system to be effective. Usin
