God vs Mayor Modes

[Doc]

Jeronij I've noticed that frequently in your tutorials, you suggest using the Mayor Mode leveling tool specifically. I was wondering what the difference is between the two and why Mayor Mode would be preferred over God mode. Just wondering if you could shed some light so I'll know in the future when terraforming which tool would be the better option.

Thanks! You know I highly respect your expertise on these matters.

I thinkthe mayor mode tools are a little gentler, but they cost you.

[Doc]

Yeah, I believe that, Diggis. It seems to take forever using mayor mode, even at full strength, which is why I use God mode. And yeah, the cost is a pain, too.

i believe when terraforming in mayor mode, it makes TF a little more controllable as compared to god mode. i use mayor mode and i can achieve EXACTLY what i want without the hassle of "oh D@#$%t " and redo it only to make a bigger mess. sure it may cost but i don't really mind.
