## Open the Terrain Editor
All terrain, whether it's mountains or painting grass, is created using the Terrain Editor.
1. Before starting, **publish** your experience so far. That way if you don't like how your changes turn out, you can easily go back to the saved version.
2. Go back to the **top-down** view (click on Top in the corner widget). This will help you edit terrain better in the next page.

3. From the **Home** tab, click **Terrain** to open the **Terrain Editor**.
