By default, all Automapping rules will run on any map you Automap. The map filename filters let you restrict which maps rules apply to. For example, any rule maps listed after `[town*]` will only apply to maps whose filenames start with “town”. To start applying rules to all maps again, you can use `[*]`, which will match any map name.
Setting Up a Rule Map
A **rule map** is a standard map file, which can be read and written by Tiled (usually in TMX or TMJ format). A rule map can define any number of rules. At a minimum, a rule map contains:
One or more `input` layers, describing which kind of pattern(s) the working map will be searched for.
One or more `output` layers, describing how the working map is changed when an input pattern is found.
In addition, custom properties on the rule map, its layers and on objects can be used to fine-tune the overall behavior or the behavior of specific rules.
Every contiguous region of tiles on the `input` and `output` layers is a rule. Tiles are considered contiguous if they're next to each other vertically, horizontally, or diagonally (8-way connectivity). You can include many rules in one map, as long as you leave space between them. By default all the rules will match simultaneously, and apply their outputs in order from top to bottom, left to right - rules with smaller Y value come first, and if there are rules at the same Y value, then the rules with smaller X come first. If you want the rules to match in order and take previous rules' output into account, you can use the [`MatchInOrder` map property](#MatchInOrder).
Defining Inputs
The `input` layers define the pattern(s) of tiles that a rule will look for. These are Tile Layers, and their names must follow this scheme:
