Hi H4voc,

This is probably not something L3DT does well/easily, but it is possible to add a uniform slope to the design map using the 'Graphs→DM_SlopeOverlay' menu option. There's an example in the ski run tutorial of using this feature to add a slope to the design map, then using the brush tools to paint on mountains etc.

Best regards,
Aaron.
