To save you busy bees a few minutes as I know you are very busy with your games right now. I have decided to produce some simple code which allows a lobby after 1 minute to break if it has less then the requires players.
if lobby < 8 players
------start timer for 1 minute
-------if timer > 60
--------------end search
else
------start game
Small quality of life updates go along way for the community. Is it really that hard to fix?
