No auto-turn toward player on Event Touch VERY Simple Plugin: YORU_NoautoturnonEventTouch.js

Hi everyone!
This is my very first plugin for RPG Maker MV. It's a very small and simple one! , but I hope others will find it useful.

It began while I was implementing an event that makes enemies chase the player around the map. I wanted to add a sneak mechanic—if the player approaches an enemy from behind, they'll trigger a Preemptive! Encounter. Conversely, if the enemy catches the player from behind, it results in a Surprise Attack!

What it does​

By default, when an event is set to "Event Touch", it will automatically turn to face the player upon activation.
This plugin prevents that behavior if you want more control over how the event reacts.

Use Case Example​

Let’s say you want to make an event that only triggers properly if the player sneaks up from behind.
Normally, when the player touches the event, the event would instantly turn to face them—ruining the sneaky moment!
With this plugin, you can stop that auto-turn behavior.

How to Use​

Just add the following tag in the event’s Note box:

<noAutoFace>

If the tag is present, the event won’t turn to face the player when triggered by touch.
This is especially useful for stealth mechanics, directional condition checks, or surprise events!

Notes​

• This only affects events using "Event Touch" trigger
  
• It does not affect "Player Touch" or other trigger types
  
• Feel free to use, modify, or improve this plugin.
