Design Notes

The Triangle Foundation was added to break up the rigid layouts forced by square foundations. Its extra structural variety led to players unintentionally discovering honeycombing - now one of Rust's most iconic defensive base-building techniques - as a side effect the designers hadn't specifically planned for.
