Fixes issue #45 where the application window would no longer be resizable after toggling fullscreen mode with F11.
Problem
When users pressed F11 to toggle fullscreen mode, the application would crash with an
AttributeErrorbecauseSimulationScreenwas callingself.initializeGameDisplay()on line 365, but this method didn't exist in the class. This prevented the fullscreen toggle functionality from working entirely.Even if the method existed, the window would lose its resizable property when exiting fullscreen mode because the pygame display wasn't being reinitialized with the correct flags.
Solution
Added the missing
initializeGameDisplay()method to theSimulationScreenclass that:pygame.FULLSCREENflag when entering fullscreen modepygame.RESIZABLEflag when returning to windowed modeTesting
This fix ensures users can seamlessly toggle between fullscreen and windowed modes while preserving proper window behavior.
