Hi Dugan, may I ask you, what the following line is good for?

tileCornerLatticeCoordinates[[All,gridIndices]]=Tuples[gridLineNumbers[[gridIndices]]];

It looks like a transformation that shifts some of the rhombs in place. But is it possible to heuristically explain, how it works. I understand that the intersections of the pentagrid provide the order of the rhombs but they certainly do not provide the correct location. Therefore, the intersections are projected into 5D. This happens in the line before. But what is the quoted line doing precisely?

Thank you, Johannes.

Glad you like it and thanks for sharing the video!

So nice to see the code works well enough for other people to make their own creations =]
