Runs an erosion algorithm over the defined region, optionally passing a number of key - value pairs representing parameters that are passed to the chosen algorithm. This command is **experimental**, as the author is currently on-the-fence about the effects it produces.
Currently implemented algorithms:
Algorithm | Mode | Description
------------|-------|-------------------
`snowballs` | 2D | The default. Simulates snowballs rolling across the terrain, eroding & depositing material. Then runs a 3x3 gaussian kernel over the result (i.e. like the `//conv` / `//smoothadv` command).
