Accelerated Play clock improvement (2 modes)

🕒 Mode 1: Time-Freeze Acceleration

  • Description: The game clock pauses during play selection.
  • Once the play is chosen, time is fast-forwarded to simulate huddle duration.
  • Game clock skips (40 - X) seconds, where X is the accelerated clock setting (e.g., 25 seconds).
  • Play clock starts at X seconds once the offense lines up.

✅ Benefits:

  • Eliminates accidental quarter-draining from indecision or distractions.
  • Provides consistent, predictable time loss per play.
  • Low-stress experience, perfect for casual or strategic players.

🕒 Mode 2: Real-Time Huddle Simulation

  • Description: Both play clock and game clock run normally during play selection.
  • If the player takes longer than the accelerated setting (X), no fast-forward occurs.
  • If the play is chosen before the accelerated threshold is reached, game clock skips the remaining time: (40 - time spent choosing - X).
  • Play clock begins at X seconds upon lining up.

✅ Benefits:

  • Encourages realistic coaching and decision-making urgency.
  • Mirrors real-life sideline strategy behavior.
  • Prevents exploits while maintaining user accountability.
