Summary

0006504: Ground relative z level indicator uses pre-erosion ground level instead of current ground level

Description

The ground relative z level indicator in the top right hand corner uses the pre-erosion ground level instead of the current ground level.

In the attached save, the south side of the moat has cut through an area where some of the soil has eroded - the area only has one full layer of soil instead of the usual two for the biome - and when the cursor is in this area the displayed ground relative z level is one lower than expected e.g. it displays -1 on the surface instead of 0.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Load the attached save.
2. Select any mode that displays the map cursor.
3. Move the cursor to ground level at the southwest corner of the moat.
4. Move the cursor along the moat to the southeast corner.

Observed:

The displayed ground relative z level shows -1 when the cursor is in the area where the soil has eroded.

Expected:

The displayed ground relative z level shows 0 along the entire length of the south side of the moat.
