Are you talking about copying a tile that you just made and you want more or do you want to just create new ones?

Yeah, I didnt find the tile matching diagram very useful. there are missing numbers, and you have to lay it out in rows based on that. Then when you go lay down the tiles, you have to flip through them anyway.

Do this: layout your map with simple tiles, the when the game starts up(create view), you step through the locations in view and set the animation based on number and direction of neighbouring tiles in that set.

Once you have an actor setup for tile-matching (see above) how can you deactivate the tile matching? I cant figure this out!!! I do not want to remove the actor, can it be deactivated??
For instance, if you were to accidently overlap a tile with another (using this feature) but didn't catch it in time to "undo", how would you remove the placed tile?

To remove the tiles created with Tile Matching option, go to the Tile Matching again and click on the Draw Tile button.
Now, hold the right shift key to enter in the erase mode and click over the tiles thats need be removed.
