Yanfly Event Copier has issues with notetags?

So I've been trying to use Yanfly's Event Copier to create destructible trees and crates. I've run into issues, however, with trying to create larger events.

I've been having issues with logging into itch.io, so I can't redownload Event Sprite Offset and Event Hitbox Resize. Because of this, I've tried to use Shaz Big Events and characteroffsets to replace these.

However, when I try to copy events, it gives me the message "TypeError: Cannot read property 'bigEvent/ox/oy' of undefined". This occurs even if there's nothing in the notetags of the events at all, and only goes away when those plugins are removed.

Curiously, if I add a comment with Shaz's Big Events like <bigEvent:2x1>, it shows up fine, and the TypeError doesn't show up. But characteroffsets doesn't have comment capabilities, and so trying to have both just makes "Cannot read property 'ox' of undefined" show up instead.

For reasons stated above, I can't download Event Sprite Offset and Event Hitbox Resize to see if those work instead. (I should also mention that my personal computer's currently broken, so I can't access my old games to find Yanfly's plugins.) Does anyone know if there's a way to get notetags to copy over as well, or should I just find another pixel offset plugin?

Did you start a new game after adding/changing the plugins?

Also try changing the plugin order - put mine below the event copier and see if it works, then put it above and see if it makes a difference. Make sure you save after making changes to the plugin order, and start a new game.

I did start a new project, after reading your "Helping others help you with plugin issues" thread. It has just the Community Basic, MadeWithMV, Big Events, Event Copier and characteroffsets plugins.

I tried playing around with the order, as per your suggestion. None of the various orders and permutations I tried worked out. I even tried adding notetags into the copied event, but those didn't work either. When I use the comments for your plugin, it works regardless of its order in relation to Event Copier.

I also tried it with another free Yanfly plugin that has Event Notetags, Move Route Core. It certainly doesn't crash, but I don't actually know what the notetag does, so I don't know if it's working or not.

Do you know any other plugins that use non-comment notetags that I can test?

Oh, here are the files for the project, if that helps. It has the plugins above + Move Route Core. (I don't know what system you run, so here's all of them. I use Mac, if that affects anything.)

The event notes/comments need to be on the event you are copying FROM. IS that how you have it set up?

This one does work, but only if I remove characteroffsets.js from the plugins folder.

This is what shows up when I try to enter a map with the copied event.

Hello! I would like to know if there are any pluggings or any way to customize how battles look?
I was thinking that when you start the battle for it to appear the eyes of your characters and opponents sorta like Ace Attorney.
Sadly I don't know how that would be possible so I would be needing help! If you can help me in any way I would really apreciate it!
The biggest debate we need to complete on which is better, Waffles or Pancakes?
