Option to end/delete games #540

I have been playing Imperial solo to try out your implementation (good job BTW!) and for trying out options and strategies. It would be good to have an option to terminate a game early. I don't see a feature to do this, apart from waiting for the game to time out after X days. For multiplayer games, maybe you need consent from all human players to mutally agree to abandon a game (Board Game Arena has something like that) or perhaps the game owner/admin could do it unilaterally. Just a suggestion, and keep up the good work!

Hi there @kevind1402 ! Thank you so much for your supportive comments. They really mean a lot to me! It's true that there is no way to terminate a game early and that is partly by design and partly by laziness/de-prioritization. At the moment, I'm not spending much time developing this further but would be happy to if there were critically important features to add or fix or if someone else was motivated to do something further with it.

So, all that's to say that unfortunately I won't be adding this feature in the near future, but it's on the list. Thanks again for your comments! Are you on the Discord group? There's some activity there if you want to play with others.

Thanks for the response. Understood, it was only a minor feature request, not at all critical, low-priority.
