Centralized vs Distributed Configuration
There are two ways in which this plugin can be used: Centralized and Distributed.
Centralized: The GM configures all D&D Beyond characters in his/her BeyondLinks.json. All other players do not have
the plugin active. Disadvantages: Larger stress on single device. Advantages: Other players don't needs
to have this plugin at all, so other players could even be using an unmodded version of TaleSpire.
Distributed: Each player configures his/her BeyondLinks.json with their own characters. Disadvantage: Each player needs
to have the plugin. Advantage: The processing is distributed between many devices so les powerful devices
are needed.
Limitations
Currently the stat names are updated by this plugin and unused stats are set to Unused.
