Timer for Cards #12

Open minqii opened 5 years ago

I think we spoke about that and i think you said it would be pretty difficult to do this but i dont remember it 100%. Basically, when we enter a card for Person X, then a countdown appears for their penalty time (1min for yellow and blue, 2 min for yellow/red or straight red). So if there are multiple persons in the penalty box then there would be multiple timers for their penalty time.

How that appears on screen is another point because in an optimal case once there is a penalty another box would appear with the name and penalty timer in it. We could prepare those boxes as simple image files and have the program output the image file along with the text file with the name and penalty timer and once the penalty is over, clear it all out again.

I think that this is pretty hard to do, so if you say that this wont be feasible, then thats np.

For OBS we need to fix some filenames with the infos about the timer (name, time, team, card etc) so we need to fix some max number of players that can have a penalty at the same time.

Do you think 7 is to many?

I think having 5 is fine. But i think it'll be easier to grab that stuff from the timekeeper app in the future because that would mean no work for one of us at the PC
