       @joshavanier I can help. The moment I started optimizing the canvas is also the moment I stoppe using it.. Do you need help with something specific?

       @joshavanier Oh wow, you're drawing at each one of those lines.You could draw to a second hidden canvas and paint it only once per frame instead of all these little individual lines, you could also change the rendering mode to fast, it wouldn't be antialised but it might look better since it's just pixel thin lines.

       @neauoire wait, I can draw to a hidden canvas? o.Owhat property or function is used to transfer that canvas element's contents to the other one? I'll try it out as soon as my lunch break starts

       @joshavanier yes! that's the one, so instead of asking for updates on the visible canvas, it will do it in the background, you'll gain a bit of cpu there.

       @joshavanier Better idea, you should draw the different patterns on that second canvas, and get/put the pixels directly. So you basically make a spritesheet, and pull from that spritesheet when you draw the tiles.

       @joshavanier you'd instantly get rid of the push/pop stroke stuff, it would be a pretty good simple improvement.
