## Mask
Mask is newer step so it was not included into the original guide. To see what is does lets assign maximum height (100) to all cells and then add Mask with default `1` factor. It will gradually mask height of the cells along map edge to 0.

## Invert
Invert is also a newer action. It mirrors the heightmap by X, Y or both axes. It is useful for maps that lean towards one side. In this case we can add invert with some probability (in 0-1 range) to mirror the map.
