Terrain files

Hi

We want to make a big sea with some islands.

For this we want to add a terrain for each island.

Any idea how to stop terrain repetition and save each terrain correctly??

Might there be problems with editing islands??

greetings
Daniel

well you COULD make the "tile" huge no that it doesnt' matter. Else you will most likely have to edit the engine's code.

And how would you make the tile huge? :)

I've been screwing with it on and off ever since I got the engine but I can't figure it out. I get "Invalid terrain block size" in the console (something like that anyway).

But if I use a terrain file for each island, I have no limits. I can add 100 islands and just scale the water. I can make really big worlds.
I just need someone you want to load such a big world :)
