Info
Added in 1.8.0 / 1.13.2

Returns true if the account is considered "tired" for players on Chinese realms.

isTired = NoPlayTime()

Returns

isTired

boolean? - 1 if the account is "tired", nil if not. See details below for clarification. Returns nil for EU and US accounts.

Example

Based on the official function, changed a bit to output the text in the chat rather than the tooltip on your avatar:

if PartialPlayTime() then
   print(string.format(PLAYTIME_TIRED, REQUIRED_REST_HOURS - math.floor(GetBillingTimeRested()/60)))
elseif NoPlayTime() then
   print(string.format(PLAYTIME_UNHEALTHY, REQUIRED_REST_HOURS - math.floor(GetBillingTimeRested()/60)))
else
   print("You are not limited by PartialPlayTime nor NoPlayTime.")
end

Details

• Only relevant on Chinese realms.
• When you reach 3 hours remaining you will get "tired", reducing both the amount of money and experience that you receive by 50%.
• If you play for 5 hours you will get "unhealthy", and won't be able to turn in quests, receive experience or loot.
• The time left is stored on your account, and will display the same amount on every character.
• The time will decay as you stay logged out.
