Does anyone know where the "Copy keyboard command in the terrain editor" is? I've looked in the terrain editor without being able to find it. I'm trying to follow a tutorial and as usual - fallen at the first post. Heelp!

Yup - if you're trying to copy an existing terrain, you don't need to enter the terrain room, just select the terrain in the main view and hit ctrl+c (then hit ctrl+v to duplicate it..) If you're trying to copy something that ONLY exists in the terrain editor, then I'm not so sure.. Cheers, Diolma

If you want to copy the grey scale image of the terrain, move the cursor over the image in the terrain lab and hit ctrl+c, then you can paste that image into a paint program.

Yeah you gotta use the keyboard copy controls. I like to take a photo of something really dense and random, like concrete or sand or ash, and paste it into the terrain editor. I make it into a high-res terrain, put a shiny mat on it, and then shine a very intense light on it. Put the whole thing over a black background and you get an awesome starfield effect. Working on one right now, heehee.

Cool! As long as I've been using this program, I didn't know the bit about copying the image in the terrain lab! Thanks Xenic101!
