Currently, the ground of my map is just a flat brush. How can I make it bumpy so that it looks more natural?

PS: I tried looking it up but I was quite uncertain about the search terms.

No problem I had to be told about displacements while streaming that's a lot more awkward I guess.

Alternately, here's the valve dev wiki page on displacements, if you prefer a written tutorial.

Better yet, use Freyja's tutorial right here.
