Is there a way to change the terrain from one tile type to another? In the original editor, i saw 'Environment - Change Terrain Type'. The downside to this is that it accepts only a point, so i'm not sure how i could efficiently change all terrain of one type to another with that. In WEU, this 'Environment - Change Terrain Type' does not exist and i am needing WEU for other things in this particular project.

:shock:

Change Terrain Type works on it you must set number of "points" from center and then make it on some point. If you will (for example) set Change Terrain type with shape of 250 to center of Playable map area, you will (probably) change terrain on entire map

Well, keep in mind regions can be points, too. With a creative layout of regions, you can utilize about every tile available in wc3 in 1 map without using WEU.

However, keep in mind that you would need to repeat the change tile trigger every time the map is loaded (i.e. from save games and such) or otherwize the tile changes will go away.
