Hmm, I don't know if what you want is possible... "You can't change the laws of
physics," as my mom would say, or in this case, the laws of mathematics ;)

Ah yes, now I remember.

What are you after? Are you planning to make vertical ridges going up along the
sides of each building? Can my code (without metric 1) be applied into each
metric 1 cell to achieve your goal? It wouldn't wrap perfectly around the
metric 1 cells, but would still be central to each cell. Buried in a
pigment_map, you could hide the discontinuities between the metric 1 and metric
2 cell edges.
