+## Tiling
+
+If two adjacent regions have the same PBR terrain settings, then:
+
+- There should not be seams between the two regions at their shared border
+- The ground should not suddenly slide beneath the avatar when moving between regions (except due to movement of the avatar, which is not covered by this test plan)
+
+## Feature Gating
PBR terrain should have lower detail on lower graphics settings. PBR terrain will also not show emissive textures on some machines (like Macs) which do not support more than 16 textures.

PBR terrain does not support materials with alpha blend or double-sided. In addition, the viewer does not make any guarantees about what will render behind the terrain if alpha is used.
