Settings

== /// SUMMARY ==
Settings are in-game configurations that the user can modify on their client to change up the gameplay, improve performance on low-ended clients, or change the interface to the style of their liking. Most of the settings are catered to improving performance and personalizing user interface and do not affect gameplay in any way, shape, or form. Some settings will require the user to complete certain challenge badges in order for them to be accessed and modified. In addition, these settings will affect the user's gameplay to their own benefit or punishment at the cost of reducing the amount of XP earned. While most settings can be changed at any time, there are specific settings that cannot be changed during the match.
