Press Space to start the song. Tap Z along with the beat of the song (with no gaps). Keep tapping for at least 10 seconds. Press R to reconstruct the beat information for the song. Press S to save the beat information. Inside Resources, there is a file named events.txt. This file contains the saved song timing information. The first two numbers specify the song's beat. We define the beat timing according to the following equation:Let T be the time since the beginning of the song in secondsA beat occurs whenever T = Offset + K * Period, where Period is the time between beats, Offset is the time from the song start to the first beat and K is any integer. The first two lines of events.txt are Offset and Period, respectively. If you want information about specific events in the song, the keys X-M or 0-9. These events are recorded in events.txt after the beat information.
