Request - Silent hours for messaging #215

Open Dracon23 opened 8 years ago

Dracon23 commented 8 years ago

Is there any plans to add a feature that makes the messaging part go silent when a certain time stretch is reached in the night?

in telegram you can do that yourself, you must then enable it by hand.. i only have it on when im going on for a hunt, for the rest its off by default for me.

I was just thinking, what if there was a schedule for when the scanning is on and off, not just for the notifications to simulate human behaviour by your workers or is that just dumb? Because if they are logged on for like 200 hours without a break you can certainly rule them out as scanner workers. However I guess they will be flagged as that at some point anyways as they never ever catch anything or do anything beside walk around... And then you would have to simulate a whole lot more shit etc...

You're overthinking it. It should be very easy for Niantic to tell the difference between a bot and a real player. So far my tool does pretty good, so there really is no reason to do complex human-like behavior simulation. I mean it's not even sending any device informations and it's still good :P

I know I can do this in telegram, but considering that I'm currently trying to hack together XMPP notifications (I do run a small jabber server for the local community to coordinate catches and such), I'd think a global setting in the software itself might be of interest.
