The terrain editor is used to manually modify the terrain height map and square properties. Terrain editing is accomplished using the brush. The brush is a selection of terrain points or squares centered around the mouse cursor. The brush is either a circle or square area, and can be one of several size selected from the brush menu. The brush can also be either a hard brush - where the affect on the terrain is the same across the surface of the brush - or a soft brush - where the brush's influence on terrain diminishes towards the edges of the brush. The Terrain Editor Settings dialog filter view controls the falloff of the soft brush.
