I'm actually a bit embarrassed for asking this, but I can't figure it out. I was a heavy XP user over a decade ago and now am using MV. Essentially, I am having autotile issues. I'm using Pop! Horror City tilesets and I am looking to make a building like the below image.

The autotile is BELOW the building. Here's what happens when I do it:

What am I missing here? Sorry for the newbie question.

I believe what you want is a technique called shift mapping or shift-click mapping, depending on who you ask. I'm not great at explaining how it works, so here's a couple of tutorials for it:

Hope this helps! :D

This is insanely helpful. I don't think XP had this feature, so I feel less noobish than I did before.

Also, this is a great feature.

Thank you so much!

Pop horror also has tiles in the A5 section with a darkened top edge which are designed to be placed under walls like in the example map image.
You'll find them just under the road markings on the A tab if your exterior tileset is set up the same way as mine.
