Wind rose - collateral points, continuous circle at 50% and the percentages on a line (west to center)

Hello, I would like to make a wind rose just like figure 1, but the way I'm doing it just comes out as shown in figure 2.

code is below along with a txt file (zip):

function varargout = wind_rose(D,F,varargin)
%WIND_ROSE   Wind rose of direction and intensity
% 
%   Syntax:
%      [HANDLES,DATA] = WIND_ROSE(D,I,VARARGIN)
%
%   Inputs:
%      D   Directions
%      I   Intensities
%      VARARGIN:
%       -dtype, type of input directions D, standard or meteo,
%            if meteo, the conversion dnew=mod(-90-D,360) is done;
%            if not meteo, standard is used (default)
%       -n, number of D subdivisons
%       -di, intensities subdivisons, default is automatic
%       -ci, percentage circles to draw, default is automatic
%       -labtitle, main title
%       -lablegend, legend title
%       -cmap, colormap [jet]
%       -colors, to use instead of colormap, for each di
%       -quad, Quadrant to show percentages [1]
%       -ri, empty internal radius, relative to size of higher
%            percentage [1/30]
%       -legtype, legend type: 1, continuous, 2, separated boxes [2]
%       -bcolor, full rectangle border color ['none']
%       -lcolor, line colors for axes and circles ['k']
%       -percbg, percentage labels bg ['w']
%       -ax, to place wind rose on pervious axes, the input for ax
%            must be [theax x y width], where theax is the previous
%            axes, x and y are the location and width is the wind
%            rose width relative to theax width (default=1/5)
%       -parent, by default a new axes is created unless parent is
%                given, ex, parent may be a subplot
%       -iflip, flip the intensities as they go outward radially, ie,
%                highest values are placed nearest the origin [{0} 1]
%       -inorm, normalize intensities, means all angles will have 100%
%       -incout, if 0, data outside di limits will not be used [0 {1}]
%
%   Output:
%      HANDLES   Handles of all lines, fills, texts
%      DATA   Wind rose occurences per direction and intensity
