+			- pipeline_forced_on: Try to honor [member Engine.max_fps]. Pipelining is always on. This is the same behavior as Desktop PC.
+			- auto_fps_pipeline_forced_on: Autocalculate max fps. Actual max_fps will be between 0 and [member Engine.max_fps]. While this sounds convenient, beware that Swappy will often downgrade max fps until it finds something that can be met and sustained. That means if your game runs between 40fps and 60fps on a 60hz screen, after some time Swappy will downgrade max fps so that the game renders at perfect 30fps.
+			- auto_fps_auto_pipeline: Same as auto_fps_pipeline_forced_on, but if Swappy detects that rendering is very fast (e.g. it takes &lt; 8ms to render on a 60hz screen) Swappy will disable pipelining to minimize input latency. This is the default.
+			[b]Note:[/b] If [member Engine.max_fps] is 0, actual max_fps will considered as to be the screen's refresh rate (often 60hz, 90hz or 120hz depending on device model and OS settings).
