For the best results, you should mask the following:
- All roads that are not painted but use objects.
- All houses, sheds
- Everywhere there is tipCol. (You can use the tipCol as a base). This is neccessary for good gameplay, as snow can't be removed when there is a tipCol.
Placeables are masked automatically.
