Terrain Nodes

Terrain nodes create large-scale landforms that can anchor the rest of a graph. Use this family when you want a recognizable base terrain before adding erosion, surface detail, color, or export logic.

Start here when you need to:

• block out mountains, ridges, islands, dunes, craters, or volcanoes
• establish the main silhouette of a terrain quickly
• create a base that will be refined by Simulate, Surface, Modify, or Colorize nodes
• compare landform generators before committing to a graph direction

Useful starting points:

• Mountain, MountainRange, and MountainSide for mountainous terrain
• Canyon, Ridge, Rugged, and Uplift for stronger structural landforms
• DuneSea and Slump for softer or wind-shaped terrain
• Crater, CraterField, Island, Plates, and Volcano for specific landform types
