How to create a clearing?

[kilowatts]

In the map maker tool is it possible to create a clearing? ie a parcel of open ground surrounded by woods. I tried drawing two concentric circles and fill the outer one with woods, but the inner one has to contain vegetation so the closest I could get was a patch of Heide surrounded by woods.

Yes you can by overlapping patches of the terrain. I'll try to explain it in simple terms:

1. Make a "U" shape woods area.

2. Close off the open end of the "U" with another patch of woods.

It's OK to overlap the terrain as much as you want, there is no adverse effects on gameplay or aesthetics.

Hope this helps.

Okay, makes sense, thanks.
