Modifiers - RhythmLunatic/stepmania GitHub Wiki

string modifiers such as DefaultModifers or course modifiers are loaded from the PlayerOptions class, from the function FromOneModString. Each modifier is separated by a comma. Putting 'no' in front of the modifier disables that modifier.

Example of modifiers: drunk,no drunk,150% drunk,*2 100% drunk
