Why do we need to hit "Save & Exit" to get the next screen in the install process, wouldn't "continue" or "next/next step" be better?
Implemented [Suggestion] Change buttons when adding a game

The "Add New Game" process is really two steps, the first step really does save the game entry but because the system specific data has not yet been entered you're are redirected to the game entry in "Edit Game" mode so that the missing data can be provided.
But you're right... it can likely be accomplished doing the same thing while suppressing the "Save & Exit" button from appearing and making the text on the "Save all Changes" button to be something like "Save & Continue..." instead. I'll check it out.
Updated
Will be included in the 0.0.2 release. The "Continue" button will actually save the entry and then take you to the game in edit mode. Best case: It is more intuitive. Worst case: Something happens after the save (eg: connection timeout) and switching to 'edit' mode is interrupted resulting in a game entry saved; the admin could then manually go back and select the game to edit it to finish entering the settings. Conclusion: The benefit of making the screen more intuitive outweighs the possibility that something might go wrong and if it does it is easy to resolve so it makes sense to change the buttons.Here's what will show at the bottom of "Add New Game"....

Nice work Kevin, do you realise the difference you're making in a week!
