function changeScene(scn, typ, duration, fe, fd)
 fe = game.FadeEffect -- store fade effect
 fd = game.FadeDelay -- store fade delay
 -- + --
 game.FadeEffect = typ -- update fade effect to specified fade effect
 game.GameFadeDelay = duration -- update fade duration to specified fade duration
 -- + --
 game.CurrentScene = Scenes[scn] -- update scene
 -- + --
