-----
When a test play begins， the following names will automatically be prefixed
with an ID and resaved.
This will not affect items that already have an ID.

- Switch
- Variable
- Common Event
Example: "Switch A" → "1: Switch A"

Caution!
This plugin dynamically rewrites the database.
Use at your own risk.

Steps
1. After applying the plugin， run a test play.

2. Reopen the project and verify that the common event， variable， and switch
names
have an ID prefix.

By default， a process will be performed to back up the target database file in
case of malfunction.

After running the plugin several times and confirming that it is working
properly， you can disable the backup at your own risk.

As this is a development support plugin， we recommend not including it in the
retail version.

This plugin does not have any plugin commands.
