Surface terrain to a "level" terrain
-
ok, for the first you have to excuse me for not finding the correct word for what im looking after. Because of that im gonna attach a picture that i hope can explain what im after.
I have a surface and i want to convert it to a "leveled" terrain - like the old school models made by hand.
I know that you can insert plans and so on to make the heightdifferent visible... but thats not what im looking for - i want the terrain to be like stairs...

What you have to do is flatten the contours then create faces for them the use the push pull tool the bring them the the required height.
Its a long a boring process if you have loads of contours.

I would take the contour lines and Drape them onto a flat surface of the same width. Then run Make Faces plugin and as Toby said, manually lift each section to height.

existing Colors by Slope, Z by colors, it's just the inverse
(better if you have yet a color plane level! ) -
Not sure, but this might help you. I think that you may have to rotate your model before slicing, as a quick read is that it slices in the x, z plane.
