-- flag info: Rather than fully colouring up the entire screen, it acts as a layer of the chosen colour and FX, For example, if you make the FX 255, the colour red and tick the modulate flag, Your entire screen will be covered in red but you will still freely see, it will look as if your ordinary yellow light bulbs suddenly turn red.
