Automation

I’m a relatively new user that’s spent around 12 hours in WorldMachine, and at this point I feel like I need to know more about the Automation features of the Professional edition. I can’t find much documentation on WorldMachine Automation that gives clear, thorough explanations of what is and is not possible with it, such as whether or not a game using WorldMachine-generated content with the automation of one or more processes would require any players of this game to have their own copy of WorldMachine installed for this to work, or if automation allows certain parts of WorldMachine to be embedded/packaged with such a game. Can anyone point me to any clearer and more thorough resources for this, so I can figure out if this is the right solution for my procedural terrain generation?
