    I'm a modding noobie. I apologize.

    Is there a quick, easy way to delete rocks, trees and plants? I set down a field, then I paved it in preparation for building a large city. Unfortunately, my streets were filled with rocks and trees and plants. Is there a way to quickly and easily get rid of these, short of clicking and deleting each one? I could just set down a big patch of water, then pave over it, but I'd like to build my city next to a cliff, which introduces difficulties with terrain.

    Suggestions?
    Crispy.

    Yes, ignore that entire part in the Amtut tutorial that talks about weeding entire sectors. BAD BAD BAD!!!

    Instead, use the little 'mini-map' in the bottom left. Pick a terrain and paint your map with it. It places default forest, weed free ocean etc... as you go. Anyway, play around with the mini-map and you'll see what you can do with it.

    As for building a town. I built a town in a forest, and had to remove most of the trees as I built. Yes, it's annoying, but even when using the mini-map, there's still some areas that will need 'fine tuning' unfortunately.
