Let users make the race-gates bigger if they want #38

I've had multiple bits of feedback concerning the race-gates - namely that they are too small and thus too hard to fly through.

Scale wise, they are actually larger than a real life racing gate, and I'm thinking the eventual write of a shader to simulate an FPV camera will fix this. That said, it seems a pretty easy thing to simply give a drop down with the option of making gates much bigger. When you are starting out even massive goalposts can feel small when you are hurtling at them, so I'll add this - maybe in the system settings.

This is done, and ready to go into the 0.44a release. We have 3 sizes of gates. Regular... which is the normal sized ones that are currently in game

044-Rate-gates-regular

Then by pressing G you can change to large and giant gates. Large should be easy for anyone to fly through.... giant gates are massive so I can't see anyone not being able to fit through

One thing I did pick up from this is that the race track looked a bit squashed in as soon as the gate size was increased. Whilst I'm very keen for this not to be a race sim, I do need to look at adding some better more spread out race courses in the future
