We need an engine-level solution for water above sea level. This limitation can be very restrictive when developing a new terrain. In VBS2, this was solved by having two separate heightmaps defined for a given terrain: one for land, the other for any water surfaces. The water surfaces are defined via shapefiles in the editor and then converted into a water heightmap. The water heightmap is then referenced in the terrain's config file. A variation of this solution could be implemented in Arma 3, allowing for inland rivers, ponds, and lakes. Terrain developers would no longer need to create customized pond objects that must be "sewed" together as is currently necessary. This method is clunky, unrealistic, and rarely works as intended. While this feature may not benefit Bohemia's current terrains, it would be a great boon to the community. {F23953} {F23954}
