* optionally echo name of world that was detected by the scheduled py file
* shows player location (and only first 2 characters of name, for privacy; there is no saved setting yet, so to adjust, you must change the value of $nonprivate_name_beginning_char_count in chunkymap.php)

* Ghost players if they stay in one spot long enough (see $player_file_age_idle_max_seconds in chunkymap.php)
* Hide players if they stay in one spot long enough (see $player_file_age_expired_max_seconds in chunkymap.php) avoiding logout detection, and not requiring mods
* Has optional script to add crontab entry (to schedule update script every minute that runs the py file unless the py file is not complete [took longer than 1 minute])
