Mr Snidesmin

I've been noticing really weird effects. . .

Doing the operation:

ModifyTerrain terr, x, z, TerrainHeight(terr, x, z)+HeightUnit*2, True

works okay, as does:

ModifyTerrain terr, x, z, TerrainHeight(terr, x, z)-HeightUnit, True

Therefore to get the effect of:

ModifyTerrain terr, x, z, TerrainHeight(terr, x, z)+HeightUnit, True

I could do:

ModifyTerrain terr, x, z, TerrainHeight(terr, x, z)+HeightUnit*2, True
ModifyTerrain terr, x, z, TerrainHeight(terr, x, z)-HeightUnit, True

However this does not work!!!

This has to be a floating number precision problem in combination with a blitz terrain bug. . . Either that or it's some kind of weird quantum entanglement. . . :O)
