Increase Game Window Size

@lidavidm : Wanted to check how feasible this is going to be. Can we just scale the canvas to some x times while keeping aspect ratio?

[lidavidm]

Yeah, it's just these constants:

Halite-II/libhaliteviz/src/assets.js

Line 5 in bfe2de4

export const VISUALIZER_SIZE = 690;

It would be simple to have the visualizer accept size parameters and fall back to the constants only when needed. Scaling the visualizer on the fly would be hard, unless you just render at a high resolution then scale the canvas down; that can be done in CSS.

Okay, thanks makes sense. user feedback that sometimes the game is hard to see, was thinking about building a full screen mode.

[DollarAkshay]

What library are you guys using for the canvas ?

[lidavidm]

@DollarAkshay We are using PIXI.js.

Given we are at the end of the competition, closing this out. Will consider for Halite III
