Summary0019588: Ability to delete saves
DescriptionMaybe I'm blind, but I can't see a button to delete save games. They're bothering me by being there while I deliberately left the campaign due to me testing stuff out and abandoning it shortly after.

Chris, does the intended UI rework for the Save/Load menu include this? And do you anticipate reworking the Save/Load in the new UI style before EA? If not then I might be able to add this to the current Save/Load UI.

I don't plan on revising this screen prior to EA, just for time constraints. If you can add that pre-EA, that's definitely appreciated. Thanks!

Ovalcircle, are you asking about deleting an entire campaign? Or a single save?

Both, actually. I have 5 campaigns that I have abandoned taking up space on the load game screen. Deleting saves would also be helpful.

Note that this will require a new GameCommand

to go with
    public class GameCommand_SaveGame : BaseGameCommand
    {
        public override void Execute( GameCommand command, ArcenSimContext context )
        {
            string saveName = command.RelatedString;
            SaveGameData saveData = SaveGameData.CreateSaveGameData( saveName, ArcenTime.Now );
            List<string> metaDataList = new List<string>();
            saveData.FillMetadataList( metaDataList );
            World.Instance.SaveWorldToDisk( saveName, metaDataList );
            if ( command.RelatedBool )
                Engine_AIW2.Instance.QuitRequested = true;
        }
    }

We will need a DeleteSaveGame, which will allow autosave to track the last X saves

Hey Chris, I've implemented a "DeleteSaveGame" function, which you can observe being used in the Autosave code in Human.cs. What's needed now is the appropriate UI, and I think that's a question for you and Eric.

I also used World.Instance.DeleteSaveGame from ArcenUniversal, rather than the game command. I couldn't get that to work quite right.

Also note that my system doesn't yet allow deletion of campaigns.
