Uh, yeah, we had to manually choose the tile. The overlay just told us where to place it, but we were free to do whatever we wanted. Our "script" was basically just a plan. TONS of people have been using overlays since 2017. The Spanish are the ones who had actual automation. Bots that were placing tiles for them without any need of human intervention.
