I'm building a terrain, and I want to know:

Do I need roads,railways at the terrain?  No, these are optional!

If I build the terrain for SEA do I need all zones,
roads, suppliers?  Not sure, this is for Hitech to answer!

How can I test my terrain? You can do it Offline or in H2H!
 
What should be present on standart terrain? Depends on what you are using it for!  

Minimum requirements for a Terrain are:

 All 3 Country must be represented.  

Minimum requirements for a Country are:

 HQ     .......... only 1 is used
 Field   ............ need at least 1

Minimum requirement for Fields are:

  Maproom   ( maptbl1 shape set as Maproom ) ........ only 1 is used
  Tower   ........ only 1 is used
  Hanger    ( ENTPNT "Entry Point" shape set as Hanger )  ......... only 1 is needed.  You could use up to 5 which could give you 5 different views locations if you wanted, for the Vehicle, Bomber, Plane, Boat and Ground Guns
  Entry Point   .... at least 1, set as either a Boat Entry, Bomber Entry, Fighter Entry or a Vehicle Entry.  Maximum Entry Points for each is 9.  They are as H=Hanger, and then the compass direction of N, NE, NW, W, E, S, SE, SW.

Is there any full instructions for building terrains? Only what you get in the TE ( Terrain Editor )  Lots of stuff here in the message board and lots of people that are willing to try and help.

Ony one good information I can is at forum, is there more? Not that I know of.

Is there any good FAQ for terrain building? Not that I know
of.
