Terrain type ID clarity?

G-E · Defense Minister **Joined**: 09 Feb 2015

I'm creating/editing a bunch of TMP stuff, and I ran across the ID list in the discussion forum though TMP Shop shows the list without numbers...

Now my first question si regarding the cliff ID, it appears all the cliffsets in RA2 that I've looked at use the ID for rock, not cliff. I understand TS uses rock for cliff tiles, but should I use the cliff ID for mine? Any quirks or benefits?

PS. if I have more questions I'll keep asking in this thread so as not to clutter things.

every dialog has next to the terraintype dropdown box a textbox with the number

If you need a detailed table overview, look here

I have that table saved, but my question was that RA2 has an actual cliff ID whereas TS uses the rock ID. Yet when I look at the RA2 cliffs, they appear to also use rock ID...

So which is correct? Does it matter? What's the right way to do it?

It doesn't mater, they both use the [Rock] settings AFAIK.
