A quick and dirty Star Citizen total playtime calculator based on your Game logs (*.log files in SC folder).
You need to give the path to your logbackups folder and it'll do the rest.
If you trust me, you can grab the exe in release and open that, then select the folder "logbackups" in your StarCitizen install.
In most typical installs it would be in C:\Program Files\Roberts Space Industries\StarCitizen\LIVE\logbackups.
Note: LIVE would be for the typical production env, feel free to use other envs to calculate your total there.
You don't have to trust me if you can run the python code yourself from the main branch (and even generate the executable).
You don't have to trust me if you can clone this branch and build the solution using Visual Studio 2022 (I use the community edition, and have very little in the way of dependencies).
TL;DR: build the solution (C#) yourself, or run the Python code yourself, or trust that I am not a pirate (although I do love me some Drake ships).
SCPlay Iterates over logs, identifies dates and timestamps using regexps, calculates delta per-log, adds them all up. That's it.
Since the stats aren't available anywhere, the only way to gather that information is by going through the log files (current session Game.log and past sessions in the logbackup/*.log files)
The logic is basic and has very little error handling.
Looks for log files in logbackups, adding the Game.log file one folder up (most recent log), and then calculates deltas within each of those files between the first timestamp and the last one.
Do whatever you want with it, it's not mine it's everybody's. Cheers.
(Tentatively put MIT but probably more WTFPL to be honest!)
