Hi Kevin, how do you call that 4D? (are you refering to 4 dimensions)?

The 55x55 is a large 2D format. Then you cut out sections to give you islands, which can be considered

groups of 2D, so now you have 3D. Where does the 4D come from?

Btw, the pieces are small in your diagram, but I think it would still be playable. These topics are interesting to me, because I'm continuing to explore the possibilities of playing chess on very large and infinite-size chessboards. But there is a point when pieces can be moved too far, and could not be displayed on a single image. (but I have found no reason anyone would want to move pieces extremelly far from their setup positions anyways).

Also, how did you find the code to use to select the green and green/yellow hexagons? Just trial and error, or is there a methodical way to select specific colors?

Keep up the good work! And let me know where the 4D comes from.:)
