Sometimes you need to limit the visitors' duration of stay at your location.
Example: You own a homestead region that is very popular. Because of the 20 avatars maximum it's really difficult to teleport to that place - mostly you get a "region full" error. To avoid this problem more and more people stay at the region even when they are afk. This increases the problem even more!
Now it's time to use this product!
Either use it just for monitoring the duration of stay of your current visitors (names and hours:min are reported in hovertext)
or enable also an action, that should happen when the max. duration has been exceeded AND the currently scanned # of avatars is greater than the configured limit.
Configurable parameters:
-ScanMode
P = scan this parcel
O = scan all parcels on this region having same owner as this parcel
R = scan this region
-ScanInterval:
Scans every # of minutes
The stay time will be resetted to 0, if an avatar is outside the scan range for at least the ScanInterval
- MaxAva
If the current scan detects less or equal than this # of avatars, no Action (see below) will happen.
For example at a homestead region this value should be set to 19.
- Action
CW = Chat Warning (only receiver can read in nearby chat window)
DW = Dialog Warning ( a dialog window pops up in receiver's viewer)
TH = Teleport home + chat message
- MaxStay
If someone stays longer than this # of minutes, the configured Action (see above) will happen
0 = unlimited stay, never any Action
If Action=TH and ScanInterval=5 and MaxStay=120, the message will be for example:
"Your stay exceeds the max. limit of 2 hours. You can come back in
5 minutes at the earliest."
if Action=CW or DW and ScanInterval=10 and MaxStay=180, the message (repeats every 10 minutes) will be for example:
"Your stay exceeds the max. limit of 3 hours. Please leave this area
for at least 10 minutes to give others the chance to enter this area!"
- Ignore
Comma separated list of names to be ignored.
Ignored avatars are nevertheless counted as scanned (see MaxAva).
- monitor duration of stay
- warn visitors, that they stay too long
- tp home all avatars exceeding duration of stay limit
