See How Long You've Been Away

Check the TAB Player List

Open your TAB player list (press Tab by default). Next to each player's name, you'll see their status and idle duration displayed directly in the list.

  • Active players show no idle marker.
  • Away players display how long they've been inactive, shown in minutes or hours depending on the duration.

Understand the Display Format

The idle time appears in a readable format:

  • Short absences show as minutes (e.g., "5m")
  • Longer absences show as hours (e.g., "2h 30m")

This updates automatically as time passes, so you can see at a glance who's been gone longest.

Server Announcements

When a player goes away or returns, the server announces it in public chat. This gives you another way to track activity without checking the TAB list.
