1st, have you let people try this, like 10-2- or 30? If lets say 5, that isn`t good enouugh. I shall explain tips for future maps..
1 - When building shores/beaches, do grass first, sand won`t be needed if you change Flatlands grass to sand.
2 - The box tool i never use because it makes almost anything i touch good. To begin i`d stay away from it and use a Soft, Round brush.
