bookingLimitsCount.hour ?

[aanomm]

Is your proposal related to a problem?

I love everything I see (on Twitter) about Cal and have been hanging to try it out. I'm currently scoping Cal as the Booking System for a cafe and restaurant and it's stunning and simple so far. I've quickly running into a roadblock though where we need to limit the number of bums-on-seats booked per hour (note: I'm using bums-on-seats as the descriptor as I'm unclear of Cal's definition of "Seats" which might be slightly confusing me) because many venues have dynamic/open-plan/community seating and because 1 Booking doesn't always equal 1 Seat in these usecases (1 booking might be a reservation for 4 people)

Describe the solution you'd like

bookingLimitsCount is already available for Days, Weeks, Months, and Year: could it be available for Hours too (bookingLimitsCount.hour)? I wonder if this would simply solve the problem and open up Cal for countless other Booking scenarios?

Describe alternatives you've considered

Another option might be hooking/connecting a Custom Booking Question Number Input field to some other variable in Cal where the data becomes a bums-on-seats booking counter but bookingLimitsCount.hour seems simplier (on the surface)
