i will try to do a tmp fix for it in some days, later , when 
gen-terrains will be finised some code will be tuned in ruleset. 
 
about the balck box, anyway the actual placing systems for final 
terrains as to be completly rewrited for gen-terrinas, even in the 
latest patch, and even some part of characteristic code maybe need to 
be tuned. anything is for a 2.1 version
