 ===== Guidelines for Using Easy Spawner =====
+  * **Spawned Object Permanency:** Any object created using Easy Spawner will be flagged for respawn if destroyed. **CTRL + Z** does not prevent this respawn behavior. To avoid unintended consequences, use local worlds or dedicated debug servers for testing.
+  * **Cheat Sword Usage:** The Cheat Sword can render objects non-respawnable upon destruction. However, it must **only** be used on admin-spawned objects that should not respawn. Avoid using it on standard objects meant to regenerate.
