Terrain "hole" rendered when terrain tiles are missing

[NathanMOlson]

This issue appears in the terrain/fog render test. A hole appears in the rendered image.

All terrain tiles have a border to prevent holes in the terrain, see:

• Terrain elevation tile stiching #1602

But for missing tiles I don't know what the behavior is.

Can you clarify the issue here, I'm not sure I understand the problem statement.

[NathanMOlson]

Sure. I've removed my thoughts about what is causing this so the problem statement is more clear, and added a separate issue for the problem with render test infrastructure: #4862

What are your expectations on this? AFAIK, there's no hole it's just that it's getting rendered as if there were no elevation

[NathanMOlson]

My expectation is that there is never a hole in the map, even when terrain tiles neighbor missing terrain tiles. I expect the behavior to match the 3D terrain demo, which doesn't have holes at the edge of valid terrain.
