Main Idea: Edit the AFK Timer for dispatchers on-duty

Full description of the idea: When on duty, dispatchers are not plagued by AFK messages or auto kicked for being sat in their chair too long when working on incidents as it is a pain during being half way through typing and either A being straight up booted or B. panicking and hitting the wrong number and being kicked.

So from this either have an edited algorithm of sorts as a dispatcher you can easily be caught if AFK by your colleagues if you don't do work and end up demoted from position by staff or have your rank of dispatch removed by Dispatch command

Why should it be added?: So Dispatchers are not accidentally kicked or get kicked whilst on duty as they spend their time sat down and don't usually remember to get up and walk every so often

Pros: Stops AFK kicked when a dispatcher is actually active.
Allows Dispatcher more breathing room when doing their work

Cons: Dispatchers sit AFK and farm (Outweighed by the fact if dispatch is AFK it is easy to find out when a unit calls up and the dispatcher ends up being potentially removed from his PLPD role)

This already exists. Any dispatcher action resets the AFK timer to 5 minutes
