    Hi,

    one issue i got with new terrain system is that if i lower the terrain to let's say -10 units and i set height to 0 and apply to terrain, it does apply the height but in world space, which relative to terrain is actually 10 units instead to push down the whole terrain to its pivot point as it was in the previous versions of Unity !

    Is this a bug ?

    It was a change we made at some point, to make it easier to align Terrains at different elevations. I think ideally it should be on a toggle, so you can specify whether the number is in 'Terrain' space or World space, so you can easily do both.
