Thank you for your explanation. Actually, I want to stitch two different types of SCM terrain together（with different parameters). When the terrain is uneven, it may happen that one terrain is higher and another is lower. This causes vehicles running on the lower terrain to be unable to make contact with the ground because of the extended SCM terrain from the higher one. Therefore, I want to find a way to fix the issue. Is there any solutions?
