Hi! I think this is the first plugin I've used that needs to use...well, a plugin command like Set Control. I'm not entirely sure what I need to do to activate this plugin... A couple of questions:

1) Do I need to add the plugin command to the intro scene of my game (like, the first scene that plays when starting a new save file)?
2) Also, will the command need to run every time the game is booted, or only when a new save/run of the game is started?

The Plugin Command menu is simple enough, it seems; I'm glad I don't have to enter any sort of JS manually. I'm just not sure how often Set Control needs to be run.

You can use the plugin command once at the start of your game, so it could be in the intro scene of your game. You don't need to run it again every time a saved game is loaded.

This plugin command is there because some fights you may want to hard code a certain BGM for, such as a boss battle, so it lets you turn the plugin ON/OFF mid-game as needed.

For example, you might Set Control to true at the start of your game, then to false right before a boss battle that you want specific music to always play, then back to true right after the boss battle.

Thank you, that makes a lot of sense. I appreciate the thorough answer!
