    This plugin allows you to create two different names - one for the Editor and one to appear in game - for many different data types: items, skills, equipment (with more in test). So you can name things according to whatever makes sense to you while working out the database and add a note tag with the lore friendly, in game name, so you never have to lose your test naming system.

    Usage is as simple as adding the <inGameName: x> note tag to any of the data you want a separate name for. Anything without the tag will use the basic name in game.

    (This was a request I came across that has moved into working territory and needs its own place to finish development!)

    Plugin Placement -- Below conflicting plugins.

    Edit:
    Alright! Barring more error reports, I expect this plugin to shift over to 'Complete' soon. Having said that, I also fully expect more conflicts to arise with other plugins (especially with the new categories I added), so make sure to report any issues! I'll fix them as promptly as I can!

    ^ As inGameName accomplishes the same as battleDisplayText, it replaces that note. (configurable)

    This is great for creating many of the "same" item with varying stats, without having to deal with random stat plugins. I can see many other uses too. I love these useful little plugins, thank you!

    A very useful plugin.

    Now All my items in my dataabse are named by their function (Potion 500 HP, Poison-protection, Etc) but have lorefriendly name when they are tested.

    I gain a lot of time !

    Thankyou !

    @ZephyrAM hello, is this for MV, MZ or both?

    @fizzly while it needs YEP BattleCore and or YEP_Unleashed core, it should
    be MV only, it doesn't target MZ unless you create it like that to work in MZ.

    The plugin doesn't require any other plugins to work - it just at one point had a conflict with the two @ShadowDragon listed.

    It was, however, designed to work with MV, and I'm afraid I have no idea how smoothly it may translate to MZ.
