Terrain Attachment

_{Terrain Attachment Example}

For Multiple Place Types

Terrain attachment works in Y direction, it modifies the translate Y value of each placer and not conflict placer's distribution in horizontal position (translate X/Z)

That means no matter what place type (3D-Box, curve, mesh based etc) the place node is, it can be attached to terrain. .

To attach place to terrain:

First make sure freeze transformation a plane-like geometry (clear all translate, rotate, scale values, usually use Maya Modify > Freeze Transformations).
Then, first select place node, and the geometry secondly, click Miarmy > Placement > Attach Terrain

Working together with curve place and terrain, you can achieve more distribution layouts.
