[Heroes Plugin] Would like a new feature

I was wondering if it would be possible within the coding of Heroes, to add a feature to the /hero who <playername> where if the player is not online, the same command could give you the time and day of when they were last online.

Reason I ask about this is, as being the acting SiC of a town, I'm not on when every one of my townies is, and there are some members who are listed on our cit list and I've only seen them once and have no clue if they even still play. I would like to know this information without having to wait for the next audit, and each subsequent one after, that if possible.

A simpler might be to tell members to make sure to log into the forum. You can see when people were last online and this doesnt add to the coding jobs which i'm sure is already extensive

Uh, yeah about that, just because you ask someone to do something doesn't mean it is going to happen. A lot of people only go to the forums if it serves their needs. There is no way in hell I would ever be able to get all of the players in my town to log into the forums every time they log into the server. I can't even get 3/4 of them to pay their taxes on time. Other than waiting for an audit, having it built into game will be the most reliable.

Oh wow, I think a way for players to check when another player was last online, regardless of it being a Heroes command, is a badass idea!

It would also give Staff an easier way to check inactivity when we prune Citizens lists, etc!

Yeah, because audits are too far and few between. Last audit was 3 weeks ago, and we're really in need of a new one, unless we can get this first.

Whoa. This is a awesome idea! The only question would be storing the data of the player.

Yes, that would be an issue. I know how, and where, the player's data file is stored and we would have to find a way of updating ?once per week? to an alternate source other than the actual server's directory/s.

Talking about it in irc. I will likely make a seperate plugin for this. What would the command be, though?

EDIT:
Kainzo says /lastlogin <playername>
