Odd and even rows of triangles (formed between letters) on the grid are treated differently. The row with the “CON” triangle uses the \ edge of the triangle to reflect in, while the row below (with CAT -> ACI) reflects in the / edge.
The best way to visualize how it works is to draw connections between pairs of 1×1 triangles that map to each other on the grid and it should produce a

\ \ \ \ \ \
/ / / / / /
\ \ \ \ \ \
/ / / / / /

pattern.
1×1 triangles were a very difficult edge case when designing this cipher and this was somehow the best rule I was able to come up with.
