It's time to STOP

This mod adds a time limit to Rimworld sessions, like a very simple parental control. After a (configurable) amount of time has passed, it displays an alert that invites you to stop playing the game.
To make it more effective, the game will be paused and a message will be repeated in order to make you quit the game. In my tests this was more helpful than just setting a timer on a smartphone, which I would just turn off and ignore, anyway.
The counter starts when you launch the game, and it does not stop even if you load another savefile or focus another window. Shutting down the game is the only way to reset the timer.
The threshold setting can only be changed by rebooting the game, so that you will not be tempted to increase it on the fly and continue playing. You can also display custom text in the recurring message.
This mod works better if you have many more mods installed, so that restarting the game takes a lot of time and you lose interest in playing more.
If you click the notification, the game will auto-save and quit.

You can set a parameter to stop the game if it is loaded less than 10 minutes after the last shutdown, to enforce a minimum pause.
You can set a daily allowed time inteval. If you do, you will be able to play only from hour X up to hour Y. In this way you will not be allowed to play at 11:00 P.M. or 3:30 A.M. for example.
You can enable an option to automatically save and quit the game 5 minutes after the time limit is reached.

This mod uses an alert, like the one for Hypothermia, so I recommend using mods such as RocketMan, Performance Optimizer or Rim73, which will increase this mod's efficiency.
Mods that alter the game's simulation speed, like "No Pause Challenge" or "No more slowdowns", are technically compatibile, but my mod will not be able to slow down or pause your game.
