Add a “play out all goals” option to custom lobbies

Aka, once someone has a majority of goals, the game doesn’t automatically end. It either ends at the time limit, or when the whole board is achieved.
My friend and I like to 1v1 in custom lobbies, but our skill gap is quite a bit. I’ve come up with the solution “your goals count for double,” but the problem is after I get 13, the game ends right there
And we’ve also been workshopping an idea for 7x7 boards where one of us would need to get 3 or 4 in a row, but you’d end up with the same problem of accidentally ending the game
And there are just times for practice where you kinda want to play out all goals, even if you’re not doing weird stuff like that.
So I think this would be a nice simple feature that would be nice to have for a lot of players, not simply just my niche uses

Could just be a setting like:
“Match ends when: [SETTING]”
and it toggles between one player getting 13 and the board being completed

Maybe a good option would be a setting to enter how many goals you want to win. And if all goals are completed but nobody has reached that amount then the game would end. Since I think it would also be nice the other way, maybe you want a faster game so you want it to end once someone gets 10 on a 5x5, so you don't have to worry about long games with only 1-2 difficult goals left.

Oh yeah like a slider with “Number of goals to win”

It could be an "end game automatically" toggle - if it's off, then the game will only end in a draw or a forfeit. that way players can make whatever interesting house rules they want without the mod getting in their way
