If I may ask, doesn't the rule based tiles fill the use case for this or am I mistaken?
It's similar, the RPG map auto-tiling could be some "generate many rules at once" system, but it also should work in real Tile layers, not auto-layers (ie. tiles in Tile layers should update as you paint, like in Tiled for example)
Also, you could replicate a full auto-tiling setup using rules, but this would require many many rules to do so. Users would probably get bored after the second set 😄
Ah, that is what I was curious about. I know I am using the tiling rules rn to replicate the behavior and while I love the control it offers you do have to define quite a few rules to replicate that functionality. Though being able to mirror rules is a life saver there as it helps a lot.
Thank you for answering my question!
Big +1 to this, or to having "template" rulesets for all the common tilesets. There is a lot of initial time cost to setting up standard autotiling rules that I know a ton of other users are also going to have to individually replicate.
Hello, Is that still an upcoming feature ? It is set for the 1.0 milestone but it is not there yet. It's really hard to build a regular top-down 16-tiles ruleset currently. Is there any "template" someone could share ?
Considering how non-existent the documentation for the rules are, this feature would help quite a bit.
