you to place notifications on the screen to alert the player of what is now
happening without having to require player input to continue gameplay.

Numpad Location
Further down in the help will say things like "corresponding to the NumPad"
to determine screen location. What that means is there are numbers on the
right side of a desktop keyboard called the NumPad. The screen locations
will appear like below:
Use those numbers to determine the screen position of Notification Windows.
If 0 is used, the Notification Window will appear in the default location
specified by the Plugin Parameter.
