Suggestion: Add back Auto Calculate to DM Logs based on Hours/APL
Since the ACP/TP(Tier) is calculated based on hours and APL, would it make sense to add back the 'Hours' and 'Level' input to the new format on DM Log input? I actually noticed it missing and at least for everything prior to Season 8, I would use that to calculate the ACP/TP/DT and Renown.
If i'm not mistaken, it seems like everything is calculated from ACP / Tier now instead of hours / APL. An autocalc would need to use those instead.

Prior seasons it's based on the # of hours of the adventure, just like the old Auto Calculate was for XP/GP.
From the ALDMG_v82
ACP (Season 7 or earlier) - earn 1 checkpoint per hour spent playing the adventure (to a maximum of the adventure's duration in hours)
TCP (Season 7 or earlier) - earn 1 checkpoint per hour spent playing the adventure (to a maximum of the adventure's duration in hours), this is doubled for Tier 3 and 4 adventures.
Season 8 it'll be in the module directly.
So, it's still all calculated from ACP, the terms by which you earn ACP are just different.
Well, they're based on hours and tier to determine the ACP, just like XP used to be calculated from hours and level.
Hours determines ACP for old content, not new content. Tier doesn't play into ACP, only TCP. Seems redundant to me to include hours when it's relatively straightforward to record it as ACP.
