It’s an interesting topic, how much editing you can do in editor and how much you do at runtime, especially with procedural stuff.

If you think about it though, editing in game can be a workable solution as long as the changes are saved persistently to some sort of db.

That way when you return to the editor, you just have to tell the terrain to update from the db?

How does your voxel stuff work ali?

The tools will work on both runtime and in editor. The changes you make can be saved to disk in a binary file. I have it working on runtime now. For editor a bit more work is needed, as that binary data needs to go in a uasset file so it can be cooked

As for the save system itself, it is fast enough (Loading: O(1); Saving: O(N) in worst case and O(1) in best case, where N is no. of existing chunks saved in disk).
