gollark: A regular tree structure lets us generate the tessellation C combinatorially.The tessellation will be generated lazily, let G be the set of tiles generated sofar. For every g ∈ G, we keep the following information: its state q(c), and forevery i = 0 . . . Nt − 1, its connection e(g, i), which is either a pointer to anothertile g′ ∈ G and an index i′ (meaning that edge i of g connects to edge i′ of g′)or NULL (meaning that we do not know this connection yet).
