 ====== Road Smoothing ======
-**Heightmap: Road integration**
+Text moved to [[arma3:terrain:terrain-processor:road-elevation-smoothing|ArmA 3 Terrain Processor Road Elevation Smoothing]].
-Does terrain processor (TP) place your smoothed out roads 500m below ground? Shapefiles must be within the mapframe bounds before using TP to flatten the road surfaces or you will end up with super deep valleys carved into your terrain heightmap.
-If your road smoothing will carve almost tunnel like pathway to the terrain even though it is not even that steep, you can fix it by increasing Road Maximal Slope.
-If you have problems loading terrain builder exported road shapefiles, try loading and saving them in global mapper (or QGIS?) first.
-**Road Type**
-If you want TP to handle different road types with different width values, you better to separate your wide and narrow roads at terrain builder and export the shape files individually so you can use individual tasks in terrain processor.
-Using the DBF to handle polyline widths is not recommended.
 ====== Object Placement Statistics ======
-This is nice reference read of how many objects some configs place and how long time it takes to import these to terrain builder. Computer used to create these statistics is CPU: AMD Athlon FX-4170 4.2Ghz Quad Core Black Edition, RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB PC3-12800 1600MHz.

-Task: Area Random
-Trees 12, probability 100%, minimal distance 5m.

 ====== Multiple Tasks ======
-**2019-12-25**
+Text moved to [[arma3:terrain:terrain-processor:multiple-tasks|ArmA 3 Terrain Processor Multiple Tasks]].
-HOWTO place trees, bushes and rocks with different "task".
-TPP files don't have to have single task with everything spammed into one set, for example you can have task for trees at 85 density and then you have task for bushes for 30 density and finally task for rocks at 10 density, all these in the one TPP file which also checks road cleaning etc.
-It might be easier to get bushes and rocks right if they are probability 100 and the density controls how dense they are placed.
-Every different object type you put into single task limits the tasks flexibility.
-No matter how many tasks you have in one TPP, only one LBT file is exported / saved.
-One example is to first place trees, then bushes, then rocks and last run a road and other shape cleanup tasks. You can setup so that the trees take bulk of the object space and rocks are sprinkled very sparsely if there are some random empty spots in the shape area. This creates excellent overall forestry look with your objects.
