we need a Options...World...Terrain Dialog, where you can edit the
Default Texture of terrain and a Default Elevation Level number box.
this people need because about 50 % of people have other people make
object paths for them and they cant change terrain textures and its
easier then just going to the range of the world and changing terrain
textures, AW Should also have it so you can change terrain squares
outside of the world size.. incase you cant hire a 185 Dollar object
maker to make you a 3D Ground with hills and stuff.
---------------------------
we also require Weather control dialogs like skyboxes but diffrent for
lightening you can set a flash time over the entire world and a color
for the flash + second skyboxes that you can set a range to and if it
was solid or not so you can have rain skyboxes and cloud skyboxes

While great ideas, both of these ideas can be implemented with the SDK :)

For example, you can ask Magine where to download the magsbot
(turtleflight.com, I believe) and set all the terrain in the world to the
texture and level you want using scripts quickly and easily.

Second, the weather with flashing lightning is indeed possible - I already
programmed a bot that can do it - simply change the attributes twice in a
row with a brighter ambient light and then a darker ambient light :)

Andras' dem2rwx can do that too I think (on http://andras.net )

I agree...

There should be a simple built in way to change asign specific texture names to be used instead of the default numbered terrain texture names, and let the default names be used where no specific name has been chosen to replace it in the given world.

Also, there should be a simple built in way to change the terrain altitude, but I would suggest that two different ways of doing this should both be implemented. First, a way to set the "default" terrain height. This would change only terrain that hasn't been specifically set to any height yet, and would leave the rest alone. Second, and probably more important, a way to raise or lower all terrain, including the default.
