// This template is appropriate for plugins that periodically check game state
// and make some sort of automated change. These types of plugins typically
// provide a command that can be used to configure the plugin behavior and
// require a world to be loaded before they can function. This kind of plugin
// should persist its state in the savegame and auto-re-enable itself when a
// savegame that had this plugin enabled is loaded.
