I need to darken my map

Hopefully this is a simple question...
In ZE, my map is fine. Ingame, it's a bit brighter than I want it to be. How do I make it darker?

Okay... choose a darker color if your current lighting isn't dark enough for you. Make sense, right? Or if only just your terrain is bright, look here:

Actually, no.
In this case, Burn Terrain is a tool in ZeroEditor, which creates shadows based on your lighting scheme.
Where is that tool?

Click the IMAGE button located at the upper righthand corner in ZE. You'll see the Burn Terrain option after.

Make sure you un-check the box that says 'burn object shadows' (or something like that) - unless you want object shadows burned, of course.

What will that do?

As in, if you have directional lighting on your map, the areas of your terrain where your objects cast shadows would appear darker.
