heyas; guess what i found! (not that it was hidden, i just never looked at it. ;) ) you can use a function on a terrain. it's one of those buttons down near the lower right somewhere in the terrain editor. anyway, i have a pic in mind i want to work on, and it involves a distant city. i kinda dreaded trying to do that part... thought maybe i might stick in some freebie skyscraper models or something (ugh), or maybe i could make squares on a terrain fill in as buildings. so then i tried to figure out how to make squares on a terrain without doing too much work ;) i thought, i dunno, something would pixelize it and make plateus, and.... i dunno. then i found this button, and loaded a square-making function thing, and ta-da! blocks! with spacing between 'em for streets, even! wohoo! the city is made of two terrains offset from each other to fill in the gaps between 'em. the taller one has the grey building with mirrored windows material, and the shorter one has the salmon-coloured buildings with random 'lit' windows on it. and man, i finished the hardest part of my pic in like ten minutes! i'm happy! :)
