## Terrain Layers
|
|
|
|
The **Terrain Layers** section contains a few tools to help manage Terrain Layers on Terrain.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Terrain Palette
|
|
|
|
A **Terrain Palette** is a preset Asset file that stores a collection of Terrain Layers. This preset file is similar to other Toolbox presets, which you can save or share.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Material Layer Palette
|
|
|
|
The **Material Layer Palette** is a reorderable list that contains imported layers. Use the **Import From Terrain** button to import layers from a selected Terrain. Use the Add (**+**) and Remove (**-**) buttons on the bottom right to add or remove a layer. Alternatively, drag a layer row, and move it up or down to change its position in the list.

|
|
When using the High Definition Render Pipeline, you cannot use more than eight layers. When using the Lightweight Render Pipeline or the built-in Terrain system, there's no limit to the number of layers, but increasing the number of splatmaps uses more memory, which might impact performance.
|
|
|
|
The list order affects which channel and splatmap a layer uses. For example, the image below shows the respective splatmap and channel each layer uses when you assign them to a Terrain.

When you are done configuring the Layer Palette, click **Add to Terrain(s)** to add the layers to Terrain in the Scene.
