Use 2d Picture for Layout
This is a tip i found very handy for the scaling of your project early in the making.
- Create your layout on paper or on drawing/cad third-party (make it quite big, at 1024*1024)
- Use Asset Manager to import the pic in Radiant
- In radiant go to preferences (P) > tick the option "Texture Brushes in 2D"
- Select your newly imported layout texture
- Create a brush > terrain patch with it for the size of your map/area to use layout
Here is the result (using stock layout pics), you can then build on top of this or place your prefabs easily
