Save the timer correctly on game close. (1.41 KB, patch)
2014-12-25 11:24 UTC, Sahil Sareen 		committed Details | Review

Description Sahil Sareen 2014-12-17 14:59:29 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
===============
1. Start a new game.
2. Let the timer go down a bit.
3. Close the game.
4. Start.
5. Repeat 3-4.
6. The clock timer gets reset to the maximum allowed time :(

I confirmed this issue with Michael, and we think its ok for the clock to get set once every move instead of every second as we don't want to do write the game file to the disk every second.

Save the timer correctly on game close.

I found that the remaining time was not getting saved correctly on game close, 
the problem was that the difference was getting calculated from the max time allowed.
