Terrain textures problem about openage

[zuntrax]

If I recall right, we reproduced some of the blending bugs the original game has. Can you provide a screenshot of the same terrain pattern with blending turned off (space)? I'll try to reproduce it in my AoE2 installation.

I created new terrain. Here screens with on/off blending.

In AoC, water is always surrounded by a tile of Beach, its blending rules for water+ are sub-optimal at best 😄

It's not a bug it's a feature

Question is: Do we want to blend

• exactly like AoC
• equally well as AoC
• better than AoC?

I think ATM we're blending "equally well". Just try it out in AoC's scenario editor; the blending is incredibly easy to break.

The actual issue here is that beach isn't automatically placed when placing water.
