To map caves you need to do a bit of manual labor...
Here follows another attempt of explaining some tp map
Go
INTO said cave stand at the entrance.
Start a new session by loging out of game and back in..
Explore the cave till you are happy that you have all the tiles.
Copy the content of your current session in Amber\map\(Current session)
Paste to TP map tool\map archive\cave1\5
Note: The cave folder you select will make it display in that cave selection in tp map so if you want it in cave2 then paste it to cave2\5 and so on..
in tp map click map - Merge:Auto
You will now see your cave map displayed at tile_0_0 by selecting the check box of the cave1 or what ever one decided to use.
all you need to do now is move the tiles by renaming them in the tp map tool\map archive\your cave choice\5 folder
so if your cave entrance is on tile_10_12 on the surface view you rename the tile with the cave entrance on it to the corresponding tile name in the case of my example it will be renamed to tile_10_12 merge yo map and you will now see the cave entrance move to the correct location
now just rename the rest of the tiles and you have your cave mapped.
