Hello

Silly, yet important question: if I started to make a level with size 300x300, how can I make my created land bigger without reseting all I've already made? Is there an option in some menu or should I add something from the Root? And is there any max map size?

I believe you can add more terrains in the same manner you made your first terrain. (Terrain pallet, create new terrain.)

I would suggest making the new terrain larger, then using the lower terrain tool to hide the terrain under what you have already made. I am not sure if there is an easy way to move terrains as the translate tool doesn't seem to have an effect.

Concerning max map size I'm not sure. Currently I am messing around with a 2000x2700 terrain. Aside from the draw distance being no where large enough to see the entire terrain at once, the only issue I am having is generating an AI grid for the map. It takes a long time, and always crashes near finishing.

I was able to move a terrain around no problem. I just adjusted the coordinates manually at the bottom of the screen to make it adjacent to my first one. This still isn't ideal and I hope there is a better way to simply change the size of an existing terrain though.

No problem. Glad I could help.

Good call on the manual adjustment of the terrain, and I certainly hope there is a way to edit terrain size in the future.
