【What is the Add-on Manager?】

It is a function used when you want to do something that cannot be done with the basic functions of RPG MAKER UNITE. The "Add-on Manager" function allows you to do things that cannot be done with the "Database" or "Events" alone, or that would require a great deal of work to accomplish. The Add-on Manager replaces the basic functions of the game and enables functions that cannot be realized with existing event commands.
