The question looks like mixing alot things, like a personal question, Live Simulator: 2 questions, and Love Live! related question. You may wonder why, but recently I'm opening some kind of AMA related to technical thing about SIF. Here's my tweet mentioned about it (it's also pinned in my Twitter profile). Well, let's answer the question one by one.

how many hours a day you code?
Depends on my mood, time I have, school, and irl things. Most of the time I code 3 hours a day. 7 PM to 10 PM (UTC+8, no DST), but sometimes I code even at 8 hours a day. It all depends on many factors that you may can't think of. In short, my coding time is inconsistent.

 what was the hardes part/feature you have programmed?
 Hardest part? There are some. The first one is this, which turns out to be the base of all SIF WW cheats out there, sad. Second is FFmpeg video loader (FFX) for my Live Simulator: 2. Basically FFX loads any audio/video formats supported by current loaded FFmpeg (libav) libraries and you can use it as video storyboard for your beatmap in Live Simulator: 2. And the last is GUI. Yet, I still can't think a way how to structure GUI codes correctly. I always take too many assumptions when coding it, like optimization, multitouch support, textinput, and more.

who are your best girls muse/aqours and worst?
Myus (that's how I pronounce it. Too sad I can't type greek mu in my laptop) best girl, Honoka Kousaka. For worst girl, probably none, but I found Maki Nishikino is bit annoying (sorry Maki fan).

I prefer love things than hating it, but it's totally different for Aqours. I don't really like Aqours for some reason (and even angry to myself if I accidentally forgot to switch from Aqours mode to Myus mode before exiting SIF). But since you asked it, best girl for Aqours is Riko Sakurauchi, and worst girl is Ruby Kurosawa (sorry Ruby fan), because her voice anoys me a bit.

how long till delete beatmap function and restart option in pause
menu?

Not sure what you mean, but if you mean Live Simulator: 2, then it should arrive in v2.2 :P 

Update: It ariived in 3.0

what are the ideas for the game that you trashed into the bin - were
not implemented but could be cool?

Not sure what game, but if you mean Live Simulator: 2, then probably a full team simulation. This thing is probably arrive in my next project, FiLive! (rewritten Live Simulator: 2 to C++), but probably I'll start FiLive! development once Live Simulator: 2 v3.0 hits, which is in a few years in the future :P

name 3 reasons why should i come to indonesia?

There are plenty of reasons. But of course, not to meet me specially, since I'm introvert. Simple Google search result shows me article from telegraph.co.uk, which lists 15 reasons why you should visit Indonesia. So I'm just pick best reasons: Komodo Island, Borobudur Temple, and the diving to see corals, quoted from the same article, "One of the best ways to explore it is on a liveaboard boat around the Raja Ampat Islands in Indonesia's West Papua province.".

I suggest you to visit Bali first. I also have plans to Bali in June, so if we're somehow meet each other, we'll start Time Lapse by Poppin' Party (the song I'm listening in loop while writing this).

EDIT: Updated FFmpeg video loader link to point to LS2 v2.x
