Summary

Data Rename @author: ZephyrAM​ Organizing a large Database library can get complex. Ideally you'll create things in order of power or appearance, but what if you need to add more later on? Rearranging and remembering whether a Steel Sword is stronger than a Ceremonial Sword can be a hassle. This plugin lets you keep one name in the Database Editor and place another in the Note tag field. So the Database name can be whatever makes sense in the moment (Sword 1, Sword found in Mountains... whatever) and the name...

Data Rename

Organizing a large Database library can get complex. Ideally you'll create things in order of power or appearance, but what if you need to add more later on? Rearranging and remembering whether a Steel Sword is stronger than a Ceremonial Sword can be a hassle.

This plugin lets you keep one name in the Database Editor and place another in the Note tag field. So the Database name can be whatever makes sense in the moment (Sword 1, Sword found in Mountains... whatever) and the name in the Note tag will carry over into a more lore friendly, in game name.

More useful for some fields then others, but currently set to allow rename for:
  • Items
  • Weapons
  • Armors
  • Skills
  • Actors
  • Classes
  • Enemies
  • States
