║     This script  allows you to bypass the Title  screen completely           ║
║     for any  number of reasons.  This is particularly  useful with           ║
║     developing games where you need to playtest regularly.                   ║
║                                                                              ║

║     Place the script between "Materials" and "Main", but above any           ║

║     Settings can be changed in the "DevMode" module.                         ║

║     DEVELOPER_MODE is the setting to  toggle the script on or off.           ║
║     If set to "true",  it will completely bypass  the Title screen           ║
║     altogether and  go straight to the map where  the player start           ║
║     position is set. If set to "false", the Title screen will load           ║
║     as normal.                                                               ║

║     During development  (unless you're  modifying the  Title screen          ║
║     itself),  you can turn  "Developer Mode" on and  then switch to          ║
║     off to  playtest the  game all  the way through.  Then when the          ║
║     game is finished, the script can be deleted.  Or it can be kept          ║
║     in if  players want to  skip past the  title and any  beginning          ║
║     cutscenes.                                                               ║

║     I originally created this  during the development of my project          ║
║     "The Gladiator Project",  where it became necessary to playtest          ║
║     frequently to fine-tune the layouts and positions of items.              ║

║     Since  this  script rewrites  Scene_Title,  there  may  be some          ║
