This has a big problem, if you see for  condition (count == all - 1),
you need count and all, for square topolgy this is 700/8 % and for hex
500/6, imposible to handle easyly, At last you has to provaide the old
system and a NUMBER_ADJC_TILES for these things.

i am no sure if you can chage all actual values to % and get good thing
in HEX topology. maybe this has to be analyse one after one!

provide the old and new _pct function and NUMBER_ADJC_TILES.
and be carrefully where you change something to % and where you has to
user numbers.
