By "edit state", do you mean mapping mode, as opposed to follow mode?

yeah.mapping mode.and when I tap the locked icon,It change to follow mode automatically.and I do not know the resean.I can use new cofiguration to build a room and use reconfiguration to build rooms.but it can not use automap mode.

That is strange. Just to verify:

You click the pencil button to switch to mapping mode
The pencil button is selected, but the locked icon shows rather than the unlocked icon
You click the locked icon, and the map changes to follow mode (with the footstep button selected)

I don't remember seeing that before. Have you actually tried mapping while in mapping mode with the locked icon showing? I'm afraid I don't have any bright ideas offhand.

the locked button just stops you from editing the map anymore, nothing more, nothing less, thats why it throws you into follow mode

You don't need to click anything other than the pencil icon to move it into map edit mode. The lock is just something that was left over from zMUD days and holds no purpose other than to move it back to the map follow mode.

If you're having troubles automapping, check the map's locked state with #SHOW %maplocked(). If it's 1, then #CALL %maplocked(0) will fix it.
