When you want to change only the assignment of textures in the terrain  
If you duplicate and copy and change only the texture assignment  
Even the copy source data is affected and the allocation changes  
If you want to change only the texture for each scene  
do you know how?

Also refer to this method to change the terrain assignment and  
I tried changing the layer properties,  
affected

do you have a sample scene you could export as a .unitypackage and post here? I am interested to see what is happening.
