Game modes are entered by the red player in the first 20 seconds of game time. Red can type -pause to stop the time and type -pause again to resume the pause.

A gamemode consists of a dash followed by two characters and a number:

The first character determines the race distribution.

p: pick race

d: draft race

r: random race

m: mirror mode (random)

The second character determines how long races are kept:

g: The race is determined in round one and then kept for the whole game

r: The race is determined before EACH round

The 3rd character is a number between 1 and 6 determining the number of the wins for overall victory

Examples:

-rr2 would start a RANDOM race EACH ROUND game with 2 wins for overall victory

-pg4 would start a PICK race ONCE FOR WHOLE GAME with 4 wins for overall victory
