New Terraforming Height Limits (or lack thereof!)?

Post by Variable X »

I just realized that I seem to be able to raise land to...infinity?

Or at least a lot higher than I could last time I did any work on a mountain range. I currently have it up to 300 feet and it'll still go higher, but my region's raise limit still says 100 ft.

Not complaining; this is cool! Just wondering if it's an oversight or a bug and if I should refrain from making anything that's just going to get re-set.

Considering how terrian data is saved I doubt this is more than a viewer bug.

Well, dang...guess I'd better control myself, then, in case they fix it. :lol:

But just for posterity, here's me standing on a cube 100 ft up, next to my temporary GIANT mountain range...

What happens to this landscape after you shut down the world and then reenter it? (Please try exiting the world, wait 5 minutes and then enter it again)

I had already lowered everything and logged out before I saw your message. But logging back in, I can still raise the land way higher than usual...I'll leave it like that when I log out again and let you know what happens.

Just logged back in today and Mt. Too-Tall is still standing...I won't be disappointed if this bug doesn't get fixed (though working with it is giving me vertigo!)... ;)
