What is the Automapping feature?
Guess you want to make a map, which looks this:

So you have an idea how the form of the cave is. Now you must create this map. How long does it take? maybe an hour?
With the automapping feature you just draw the outline of the cave which looks like this:

What are the advantages? -just one layer to edit -just draw what you mean there should be (cave in the middle with a little sea) -no need for drawing and combining many tiles for the wall. This is done automatically
So this feature generates from the given draft the cave. How long does it take to make such an one-layer draft? 10 minutes?
how to use it?
The automapping feature needs to know how the tiles have to be setup, to create such an cave-wall.
