(4) provide some method for aborting/cancelling construction of a building (with or without the return of some or all of the construction cost)!

The method is called gold. Use gold, upgrade done. Pretty simple.

I personally don't want to see the auto finish option aside from the gold that is already in place.

With the architect...you know if it has been a couple weeks since he has shown up, chances are he will be here again soon. Don't start a massive upgrade!! Works every time for me! Not that hard to figure things out. So what if you have a few hours left on something when he arrives, just come back later and start the architect level upgrade in a few hours if you don't want to use gold...

I could see an accidental 1 minute reversal of upgrade time limit, maybe place a 25 gold cost to cancel the upgrade during the first minute. All of these crazy split the costs and time taken etc options sound like a formula for horrid glitches and nightmares!! No way should some thing that technical be put into play!! 8|

Flat rate 25 gold option for first minute of upgrade only. That would be simple, and you would have to be more careful about your clicking so you don't have issues. Yes, it should cost gold. Not like you can't earn 25 gold with a daily log in bonus pretty quickly anyway.

Anything else is just not good. Just be more careful with your clicking!! And start figuring out the time management part of it, which means understanding the possibility of Steve showing up every couple weeks, give or take a few days. He always comes as the day changes...or very shortly after. Make sure an upgrade ends before it flips to the next day and you'll be fine. I never have an issue because I know that is what happens.

That sucks on so many levels, not just the fact it was a gold upgrade but being stuck without workers & putting your field out of action :( You might want to post on this thread its a suggestion to add an "Are you sure?" to the upgrade button, like we have for the demolition one.

WE REALLY NEED A CANCELLATION OPTION FOR DEMOLISHING BUILDINGS TOO!
;(;(;(;(;(;(;(;(
My niece is demolishing my level 3 composter and I have to watch it being demolished and count the seconds till it's gone and there's absolutely nothing I can do!!
THIS DAY OFFICIALLY SUCKS!!!

Should be nice to also have an undo feature for spending gold. I never noticed I had to pay 2000 gold to rename a horse. I just lost 4000 gold :-( Very disapointed

Accidentally starting a upgrade is one thing, but stopping it on purpose no matter what the reason should require gold. As much as I hate it when the architect visits, I have and will again use gold to speed up and finish an upgrade.
