 The `VertexHeightMap` PQSMod is a mod that *adds* a given height map to the terrain. This means that height mods are additive, i.e. heightmaps don't set a fixed height.
 
+**Notes on Heightmaps**
+A common desire for planets with oceans is to set the ocean to a certain height relative to the terrain to make spots like shorelines be in the correct places. This is simple to do in 2 main steps:
+
+1. Make sure your heghtmap is normalized (darkest value is 0 and highest is 255).
+2. Set `offset` in VertexHeightMap to `-1 * (deformity * travel)`, where `travel` is the percentage of the deformity up from the lowest point of the height map that you want the sea surface to be at. For example, a `travel` of 0.5 would mean the ocean surface is at 50% grey on the height map.
