Ok, let me get this straight
Water tiles with NADA,
Snow tiles with only 1 other Snow/rock?
But snow/rock tiles with only snow and no others?
I'm trying to finish this IMO freakin' awsome terrian.
And need a few tiling questions answered.
Anyone?

Ouch, sounds serious.
Well, I'm no expert with this stuff but I'll try and clarify what I know.
Here is a discussion of the basics: http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/Forum55/HTML/000075.html (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/Forum55/HTML/000075.html)
In addition, as mentioned the special case tile 16(snow) only has 1 transition tile associated with it (terr0017.bmp) which is a transition between tiles terr0016.bmp and terr0002.bmp. Tile terr0002.bmp however is one of the five basic type tiles and has transition tiles associated with it to the other 4 basic type tiles.
Water (terr0000.bmp) is another special case. It uses a pseudo transition where it constructs a transition tile on the fly by dividing the tile in half (vertically, horizontally, or diagonally) between the water and the non-water adjacent tile.
Clear as mud?
