RMMV "Auto dialogue" like a visual novel? (MV)

[Dusk_Funa]

Most visual novels have an auto feature that makes the text play by itself; automatically going to the next text box after a certain amount of time has passed. None of the engine's built-in message-handling functions seem to do the job. Does a plugin that does this exist? The "plugin masterlist" isn't working, so I cannot search it; apologies if a plugin like it already exists.

\^ goes to the next message box and \| waits for one second. ( \. waits for 1/4th of a second)

So you could just put those control characters at the end of the message box? But maybe you'd want a plugin to automatically do that for you.

That does do the job but not in a good way, as it is enforced. I wanted to know if there was any way this could be done more efficiently than guessing how long a message would take to read. The function should also be able to be turned on/off automatically by the player, as it skipping by too fast or too slowly would seriously hurt the game. Then, imagine I just can't subscribe to the idea and decide to remove it in the middle of the project, it would be insanity.
