Instructions

Based on my "Triangle Number Shape" project: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/89414926/

Description

So it seems it works for all the polygonal numbers. I want somebody to explain why this happens. Observations: ===================== - Some side numbers, instead of looping back to where they started, will travel off in a single direction forever. It *appears* that those numbers fit the sequence 12*n+5, which is to say they start at 5 and then are each 12 numbers apart from there forward. (Shoutout to oeis.org for help!)
