Flags

•  [1] : Fade From
     Screen fades from the specified color instead of to it.

•  [2] : Modulate
     Uses attenuation blending to achieve the fade. The normal fade does a straight weighted blend between the screen and the fading color. Modulate actually attenuates the RGB channels. For example, a color of 0 255 0 would mute the red and blue channels and create a green nightvision-type effect.

•  [4] : Activator Only
     If enabled, the fade will only affect the player who activated it.
