Hello, I’ve been having a go with a recursive animation, where my hexagons shrink and spawn their relatively scaled offspring, which repeat this action.

There’s a nice snowflake pattern emerging, and I wish to make it interactive, activating a ‘shrink and spawn’ with roll over.

Anyhow -\> to the code … It works to an extent. You will certainly see the effect Im trying to achieve… its good - but gets out of hand, and i dont know why! it seems to start getting bigger and bigger - but each recursion is meant to get smaller, like the first couple of instances do…

Is there any hands to help!? download the source

ps source is using [Tweenmax](http://www.greensock.com/tweenmax/) to cause the animation, and make use of a callback.
