Beta Branch Update 0.2.2 - OGS Stabalization

The beta branch is hopefully pretty solid now. I want to let you all test it just a big more before going into the main branch.

Still some OGS features to add for game options, but as long as the backbone is stable I would like to do them in the main branch.

Changes:

  • Can fully recover from internet and all other server outages as long as Ancient Go stays open.
  • Cancel button now shown instead of resign when OGS will allow it (number of moves < size of board).
  • If no move comes in after seconds = (size of board x 10) connection status is shown as well as an abandon game button.
  • Hopefully fixed the error on close, please let me know if you see it!

If you abandon a game, it is live but you are no longer watching. You can still lose on your OGS record if the opponent is actually thinking or is trolling and makes a move after you leave. In my experience though it normally needed because the opponent didn't know they could/should resign.
