Use Overlays to Improve Village and Structure Landscaping

Soften Paths and Cleared Areas

Villages and structures often have flat, cleared terrain that looks unnatural. Use the overlays to your advantage by placing dirt and grass blocks strategically around paths. The overlays will create soft edges that make cleared areas blend into surrounding terrain.

Blend Structures into Terrain

When building near natural ground, use mixed terrain blocks around your structure's base. Place dirt where stone meets your build, and grass where dirt meets your build. The overlays automatically create transitions that make structures feel less placed-on-top and more integrated.

Create Natural Hillsides

For villages on slopes, layer grass, dirt, and stone from top to bottom. The overlays handle the visual blending, so you don't need to manually texture each transition. This creates realistic hillsides without extra work.

Enhance Decorative Landscaping

Around gardens, farms, or decorative areas, use varied terrain blocks. The overlays make these spaces look more polished and intentional. Pumpkin patches, crop fields, and flower gardens all benefit from smooth terrain transitions that frame them naturally.
