The bulldozer brush lets you create a level pathway between two points. This can be useful for making roads, walls, dams or trenches. The bulldozer tool also automatically creates an embankment if the paththway is above the terrain, or a cutting if the pathway is below the terrain. Here is an example of the bullfozer brush in operation (left), and the results (right):
Here is a video example of the Bulldozer brush in operation:

Edge width (px) | 100 | The maximum width, in pixels, of the embankment on either side of the road. |
Vert. offset (m) | 0 | The height of the road above the start and end points, in metres. Use a negative value to dig a trench, and a positive value to build a wall. |
