[Suggestion] First Time Published Date
#1
I would love levels to show the date that the ID was made. And having an easier way for them to show their ID would be nice as well.

On the user and guilld popup pressing shift shows the respective IDs. Perhaps this could be done for the level popup.
A quick way to do it though is to press the message button on the level popup and you can get the ID from the generated text

It would be good to see the FIRST time you published a map/level, somehow... not just the update of it. haha

While this is a nice idea, the data for this was never recorded, so a lot of levels would have an "Age of Heroes" type situation. I wouldn't really want that to be the case for millions of levels.

Is there a way to get an estimate using last published dates?
Since a lot of levels will be on version 1 and have last published date
and you could use IDs nearby to try to lock down the date or a close range

Oo, camer makes a good point. Anyways, aren't the level ID's incremented starting from 1? So you could for sure create an algorithm that estimates the creation date by comparing the ID to the last update (or whatever) of the neighboring IDs, that doesn't sound too bad. Create ranges of IDs, find the earliest publish date amongst them, repeat for every range then estimate the ID->date... but youd kinda have to know the player activity over time and adjust the ranges.. uhh.. I'm gonna go save my limited, sleep-deprived brain from overthinking here for no reason. Sounds fun though ;p

Plus if it's version 1 it means it's the creation date, so those ones should be exact dates

Check out this post of mine from another thread and the file.
While this kinda helps i don't know how easy it would be to create an algorithm anyway.
