Abstract: Embodiments relate to hexagonal fragmentation of terrain. Terrain data including locations on a terrain and corresponding hex identifiers of hexagonal terrain tiles of a three-dimensional topology to be placed at the locations are received at a computing device. Hex definition data corresponding to a hexagonal terrain tile includes a constraint condition imposed on an adjacent hexagonal terrain tile so that it can be placed adjacent to the hexagonal terrain tiles. A representation of the terrain is generated by instantiating the hexagonal terrain tiles at the locations indicated in the terrain data with faces of one or more of the hexagonal terrain adjoined to each other in compliance with the constraint condition.
