Potentially dangerous actions (such as loading a stage) require confirmation through a GUI to prevent accidental mistakes. --- ## 🌍 Multi-language Support Translate all plugin messages by editing the files inside the `lang` folder. --- ## 📜 Activity Logs Track plugin activity including: - Saves - Loads - Deletes - Imports - Exports - Renames - Rollbacks --- ## ⚙ Easy Configuration Customize the plugin using `config.yml`. --- ## 🛡 Load Conflict Prevention If two staff members try to load the same stage almost simultaneously, Save Stage prevents accidental conflicts.
