Custom Terrain

v2.19.0 ยท August 24, 2026

Custom Terrain

A custom terrain can now be based on any existing terrain, borrowing its icon, its soft blending into neighbouring biomes, and its movement cost while keeping your own name and colour. Pick a base to build variants the palette does not ship - autumn woods, grassy hills, a fae-shadow forest.

  • NewCustom terrains can be based on an existing terrain, inheriting its icon, blending and movement cost.
  • NewClicking a custom terrain now opens it for editing, so you can change its name, colour or base later, or delete it.
  • FixCustom terrain now keeps its colour in SVG exports - it previously exported as blank parchment.
  • FixRecolouring a custom terrain now repaints every hex already painted with it, instead of only changing the swatch.
  • FixCustom terrains now survive a reload - they were saved only if something else about the map changed too.
