Yeah, it's a common feature in some RTSs, e.g.:

C&C: Red Alert 3

SC2: LotV

One can easily work around by just making a very steep elevation with some texture care, however it's inconsistent and does not look good.

In the dev version you have cliff actors ?

Changing the terrain from a grid to a polygon map or something similar will allow for some remarkable art. If you can make it in blender, you can make it in Atlas kinda thing. Even allow for importing actual meshes to Atlas.

Fun to think about, not fun to implement. Basically involves overhauling the entire terrain renderer.

Ps: does anyone know why i have red waves in the water?

Edit: In the current state ridges can be abused with ungarrison from ships (AI doesnt do this though), however the units will likely get stuck. Ungarrison range seems to be huge. I'll fix later somehow :self_hammer:

ships have a rather large ungarrison range, this is done to make ungarrisoning the units work smoothly.

Could even add it to balanced-maps if you're interested

I'd like that. It's maybe best to wait till i fix the ridges though. I don't have much time on my hands right now but i will get to it.

though would be more interesting to convert it to a random map instead of skirmish

I don't know how to do this, but i could look into it.

Some ridges are wider and can still be used to haress enemy economy with ranged units. But they are unable to go to mainland from there and depending on the spot, they will be stuck and you cannot retrieve them. I kinda liked the extra layer of strategy to it. All ridges should be safe from any units entering over it. If this does happen i'd love to hear it so i can fix it.

In my case, i noticed the red waves come from the in-game graphics option "Water refraction". 

 

 

@badosu Feel free to add this map to your balanced maps mod if you want.
