Private Leagues - /played Time Limit per 24hr Period

It would be great to have a private league mod that interacted with hours played per 24 hour period, or something along those lines.

This way we could create leagues which, for example, limit play to 16 hours per 24 hour period. Then we could see who comes out on top when playing a "healthy" rather than crazy amount of playtime.

You could allow choosing between options of e.g. 4hr 8hr 12hr or 16hr, per 24hr period (based on league start time to keep it simple).


Credit IRRekatan for the idea.

Thanks for the credit! In the meantime will be trusting good ole honor system but this hopefully would be low hanging fruit for whoever is writing in new mods

*edit*

As a follow up, one caveat I thought of is the rolling /played check would need to be checking past and present characters (including deleted characters), not per character. For example if a player rips their character at 15 hours of consecutive play time, they should only have one hour remaining to work on the new character even if they delete the character that died. Also, if this feature were to be implemented, one thing that I can imagine would be quickly requested following is the ability to pause the /played check when /afk is used. This would allow players to step away without feeling obligated to log out every time.

You got an interesting idea of "healthy" there... personally, I'd consider anything more than 1-2 hours/day over a period of 7+ days unhealthy.

Apart from that, I like the suggestion (but won't use private leagues anyway for different reasons). You could, btw, also limit the total play time rather than the play time per day, such that players have more flexibility (and are not forced to play each day, but can do it on their weekends / days off / days without social responsibilities.

That's why I picked a full night of sleep. Anything else is relative. What is healthy for a full time streamer is totally different from what is healthy for someone with a 50 hr a week job and 3 kids.

Good suggestion.

Great suggestion! I always wanted to see this implemented. That shows who is truly a skilled and efficient player and who just got a lot of free time to play but has lower skill
