Introduction
Generate a log text file with detailed project information that saves to the project folder when the player closes the game or when it crashes.
Features
When the user quits the game, this plugin saves a new file called log#.txt. A new folder called "logs" is created when the game begins for storing these text files. This can be useful for debugging and collecting user data during playtests.
Choose which data you want to display in the log.txt file and store the information in a variable. You can also adjust terms that display in the log file.

Development Information
This was my first official RPG Maker MZ plugin! I made this mostly for debugging my own projects, but I wanted to share this here in case anyone else wants to use it for their projects too. I'm not planning to make major updates, but will mostly add to this and update my itchio page if there's additional information I see fit for my projects. If you do have suggestions or requests, feel free to leave a comment, though, and I'll see if I have time to make updates if there's enough interest.
