'''Terrain''' is an area of land, usually referred for just a lot but not limited in that scope. Players can modify it by terraforming or painting it through [[build mode]] tools. [[Weather|Elements]] can affect the said terrain, such as snow and rain. Certain objects, especially outdoor plants, can only be place on empty terrain (unless cheats are used); likewise, some objects can only be placed on floor tiles and cannot be placed on terrain. There are also certain interactions and activities limited to empty terrain that can't be performed anywhere else, including but not limited to [[Bug collecting|catching insects or bugs]], [[collecting]], doing various snow activities (making snow angels, building snowmen and having snowball fights), having water balloon fights, watching stars, etc.

Line 56 ⟶ 57:
In ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions|Ambitions]]'', Sims can build the [[miner]] with the [[inventing]] skill, which allows them to start drilling on any vacant terrain.
 
Terrain was heavily expanded in ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons|Seasons]]'', as many seasonal activities, such as raking leaves, making [[snowman|snowmen]], and constructing [[igloo]]s, can only be done on empty terrain.
 
With the patch followed by ''[[The Sims 3: Island Paradise]]'' release, Sims can build sandcastles or play with sand in areas that are painted with any sand or ocean floor terrain. The sprayed lot doesn't have to be on or as a beach for these interactions to be available.
