Shaping the terrain

Brushes, ramps and height maps.

Press G for Terrain. Choose a radius and strength, then hold the left mouse button on the ground.

Brush What it does
Raise / Lower Pushes the ground up or down
Smooth Removes bumps
Flatten Levels to an exact height
Roughen Adds gentle natural relief
Erode Wears down steep peaks
Terraces Steps the ground into levels (the step size is the Flatten field)
Ramp An even slope between two clicks
  • Brushes can be circles, squares or diamonds, with soft or hard edges.
  • Ctrl+wheel changes the radius.
  • R turns the brush by 15°, or hold R and scroll to turn it freely.
  • One drag is one undo step.

Roads fitted to the terrain stay fitted. You can also export the ground as a 16-bit height map and lay a height map back over the map.
