Daily Limits Configuration

Prevent Elo farming with daily gain caps. Players can still battle after hitting limits, but won’t gain additional Elo.

Configuration

Configure in battle.yaml:

# battle.yaml
dailyLimits:
  eloGainLimit: 200
  resetTimezone: "UTC"

Setting	Default	Description
eloGainLimit	200	Max positive Elo gain per day (0 = unlimited)
resetTimezone	"UTC"	Timezone for daily reset

How Elo Limit Works

• Tracks cumulative positive gains per day
• Losses still decrease Elo normally
• Resets at midnight in configured timezone

When limit is reached:

• Players can still battle
• Wins give 0 Elo gain
• Losses still decrease Elo

Example

• Player starts at 1500 ELO
• Plays 10 matches, wins 7 (+140 ELO), loses 3 (-30 ELO)
• Remaining allowance: 200 - 140 = 60 ELO
• After hitting 200 net gain: wins give 0, losses still count
