I want to add to the Terrain tools

I want to edit/add code to the terrain. Is it ok to do this.

Basically what I want to do is make a tool for TGEA, TGE that will make it possible to make caves.
Like the one in demonstrated in the Cry 2 engine.

What files would I have to change.

I was thinking of making it where it could split the cave into different paths.

Looking at everything in the terrain and atlas directories would be a good start. You will have to figure out how to work with chunk LOD in Atlas, though. It is not a trivial operation or it would have been implemented quite some time ago.

Yeh, I know it'll take some time as well as alot of headaches. I'm only going to try to make it work with the terrain that comes with the engine.

I will let you know my progress in a couple of months. If anyone else has any suggestions on how to do this, please leave you comments.
