Terrain paint that replicates paths

Hey there.
No idea if this has been suggested, but i'd love to see a terrain paint for each Path-texture available. This way we could make normal, fence/curbless pathing and expand it as we wish as terrain paint, so it looks like huge open areas. This would solve tons of problems imo.[yesnod]

That's a great idea!!

I'm not sure how feasible that would be, unfortunately. We are limited to 8 textures per map (+1 base ground texture). This is a technical limitation as stated by the devs, so unfortunately, a bunch of extra terrain textures is not going to happen for us in the near future.[down][sad]

I really like the idea though!

Well, can't they add all terrains available and once you have used 8, it will tell you "sorry, you can't use any more paints"?
Easy solution

Well yes and no... the paths are currently not "paints". If you make the path "paints", you gotta be careful to only choose a couple so that you have other paints to theme with.

I think what they should do in the future is like you said... let us choose the 8 paints when creating the map originally. I feel it should be a part of a random map generator/scenario editor in the future.

One can dream, right?
