Creating terrain

I was following the docs on creating terrain. I deleted
the current terrain and then made another using the file create terrain. For this one I selected flat.

What I was wondering is why, once I create my terrain I have to go searching for it? I wind up having to toggle camera and then go moving all over until I find the terrain that was just created. Once I find it, I can't drop my player on it because he just falls right through.

What am I doing wrong here?


Thanks!
