    Hello, when I import a heightmap, press "save", exit the map and enter again, all the terrain is gone.
    Before exiting the heightmap and terrain is working perfectly. Anyone has an Idea what could be wrong?
    thanks1

    edit: I noticed that whenever I create a new terrain, wether a blank terrain or via heightmap, the game creates the terrain.ter and terrain.json file in the levels folder, not the folder of the map I am working on. I suppose this isn´t right?
    However, when I reload the map, a blank terrain will get saved, a imported heightmapterrain won´t...

    Does anyone know how to fix that and save an imported heightmap terrain?

    When I was working in my map, I was using the old editor for using the forest tool (because I couldn't figure out how to do that by the new editor) then I saved my map. When I loaded it after, my changes were gone! So, after that event, when I'm done, I go to newer editor and change the X, Y, Z of my map or I edit my terrain shape a bit (for example, I smooth a 1×1 area that actually doesn't changes anything) then when I saved my map and loaded it, my forest items didn't gone anymore. So I think change the X, Y, Z of something or edit something in new editor before save, solves most of saving problems. Try that.

    thanks for the reply. You are the best, only one replying my threads <3 I will try that. I also just noticed that only the old editor creates the .ter files in the wrong location, the new one does it in the right spot. I am just a bit confused, there are so many people on this forum creating maps, yet there are barely any tutorials or threads where all of this stuff is discussed. Thank you a lot!
