The Hex Prism node
When to use it
A vertical six-sided prism. Honeycombs, basalt columns, stylised rock.
Radius is measured to the middle of each flat side, not to a corner, so the prism is a little wider than Radius suggests at the points.
Pair it with Domain Repeat and one node becomes a whole field of columns. Vary their heights with a noise-driven Intersection against a Plane.
