In NetLogo, I'm trying to create a hexagonal grid where all of the hexagons are equilateral. While the examples in the models library create hexagonal grids, they aren't equilateral, so I can't use the same method that they did. In order to make this grid and still have the world wrap horizontally, I need to set the world's width to be a very specific decimal, but I can't find a way to set it to be anything but an integer. Is it possible to set the dimensions of the world to decimals? If so, how?

No, this is impossible. The world size is measured in patches, and the dimensions of a patch are always 1x1. There's no such thing as a partial patch.

  • Another user suggested using `resize-world`, e.g. `resize-world -12.3 12.3 -12.3 12.3`, but it doesn't work; the 0.3 part is discarded, so the result is the same as with `resize-world -12 12 -12 12` (namely patch coordinates with the given ranges, and turtle coordinates ranging from -12.5 to 12.49999...). – Seth Tisue Jan 29 '15 at 00:59
