We are currently working on a new mod that needs two new terrain types:
mountain pass
mesa

I was playing around a bit and found out that I cannot simply create terrain types with <bGraphicalOnly>1</bGraphicalOnly>. Unfortunately all mountain terrain types have set this to 1.

These terrain types were not shown in the world builder so I decided to go for bGraphical=0. Then it worked ... but with the side effect that my mesa was as flat as grassland and my mountain pass was more something like an ocean, i.e. deep, not high.

I assume that all this has something to do with the heightmaps but I could not find out how they are connected.

Does anyone have any experience with my problems and might have an idea how to help? :confused:

Well - perhaps a mod could move it then? Doesn't make sense to have two posts in the forum, does it?
