Hi

I'm trying to figure out how to make a terrain of a matrix.
So far i have this code:



But how do I make a bumpy terrain of the Matrix? All I get with this code is a totally flat matrix...

I hope someone will help

Play around with these:
Quote: "RANDOMIZE MATRIX Matrix Number, Maximum Height"

Quote: "SET MATRIX HEIGHT Matrix Number, TileX, TileZ, Height"

Don't forget UPDATE MATRIX after you've done the randomization Xlaydos. That mistake cost me a few hours and some pulled hair when I was starting out...

Also you can look into matrix editors which save you the coding grief and let your work on the terrain itself. (but its still good to have the background knowledge so you know how it works)
