  • DO NOT FINISH THE WAY!
  • When ready run from menu Mapathoner -> Batch Circle Building or associated shortcut.

Batch Orthogonal Building

  • Click three nodes on building’s corners (it creates a way).
  • Continue clicking another three nodes on the next building’s corners (it prolongs the current way).
  • DO NOT FINISH THE WAY!
  • When ready run from menu Mapathoner -> Batch Orthogonal Building or associated shortcut.

Batch L-shaped Building

  • Click four nodes on building’s “outer” corners (see the picture below).
  • The order of the nodes does not matter.
  • Continue clicking another four nodes on the next building’s “outer” corners.
  • DO NOT FINISH THE WAY!
