Editor - Multiple Hill Levels?

I am not sure if you can add in a "Level 2" hill but if not it should be added.
Also it would be nice to put a gully on the map using an "inverse" of the hill routine. In other words instead of a hill you end up with an "indent" in the map.

Yep, been a subject since the beginning. Only one level really limits the map designing.

The key reason we only have a single height level was that we were having problems building LOS code where it was both consistent and 'seemed' right to the player. We were ending up with lots of situations where you did/didn't have LOS, and I could explain it by walking the sightlines, but it seemed entirely wrong to people playing the game. I'd like to take another crack at it for sure - but it will probably have to wait for BA2 I think...
