In Game Play, FPC automatically falls through terrain!

Help! Whenever I press the play button for the Game view, the scene automatically falls. Another thread here noted that this was due to gravity. I followed the suggestions there: made sure the terrain had a collider, placed the FPC at y=0, kept it above the terrain. I just fall through the landscape when I preview the game! Any other suggestions? Much appreciated.

Make sure the PC (player character) is visibly above the terrain -- this is important because if any part of its collider is "through" the terrain, the rest of it will fall through as well. You may want to start the FPS slightly above the terrain to fix this.

You will also want to ensure that your PC has a collider as well -- after all, you need two colliders for a collision to occur.

Thanks for the super fast reply! That's a great tip -- the need for two colliders. I think that was my problem. Again, thanks.
