In order to improve this, the texture coordinates need to be moved outward, away from the
center. Effectively, this increases the radius for the player's texture coordinates. This is
what the _enlargeTextureRadius value does. You should set it to 6 , and try it out
again in the game. The result should be what you see in Figure 10-15 .
