Quiz - Play Challenge

This mod requires players to answer question before they can play. If you answer correctly, you will get a award and continue to play, otherwise you will not be able to play.

Players are required to answer questions at regular intervals(idleInterval), and the answer is correct to continue playing.

When the game time(totalPlayTime) is up, kick the player out.

When logging in, check whether you have enough rest time, based on the recorded last time you left. If you do not have enough rest, you will be kicked out.
