Hi Brechtje,

It is quite some time ago that I played around with Terraformer, but I think I know the answer more or less.
In Terrafromer you can see height lines: on certain elevations you see black lines on the map. When you choose exactly one of these levels for a flat terrain, all the terrain shows black. I had this once too, but found this solution. You just need to make the level one meter higher or lower.
I suppose the map you showed is completely flat?

Good luck and I hope there is not something worse going on.

Well, it does seem to work. Have chanched the height of the land mass from 255 meters to 256 meters, and then it turns green.

This is an easy bug, just press G ( like in Simcity for the grid) and the black colour will disappear.  ;)
I'll take a quiet life... A handshake of carbon monoxide.

I didn't know that either.
