Thank You also for your detailed reply. I will also take a look at Axiom.
The map edit currently I am using WordEdit, alomg with the World Painter software. The latter I use first this i can draw or trace a map to give me the basic landscape I need. The World edit I use to transfrom ingame the terrain also useful for placing save structures. As all structures I create in a sperate map with no land easier for repiclating underground structures then i copy it and paste it to the world map I am editing.
