OBS Studio will definitely meet your needs. The latest version added a "pause" feature so instead of recording several video files you can just pause and resume as you please.
About recording the chatroom you have the option with OBS to either capture your display or just any window (your browser or app).
Would use FlashBack Express. You can set your recording start and stop times in advance so no need to try to do this remotely from your office etc. Software is free.
I second Loom for what you describe. It's relatively lightweight and free.
OBS is extremely complicated to get going with unless you have a solid understanding of video production (It stands for Open Broadcast Studio and that's what it is designed to emulate).
Programs like Camtasia and Screenflow are much heavier than what you need since you just want to do a long recording, not make extensive edits after the fact.
For recording a multi-hour screencast for free, you really can't beat loom.
As you can see there are many options. The tool I use is Movavi Screen Recorder, not free, but not expensive either. You can set multiple tasks/time periods start and stop in either full screen or set area so that you limit the amount of storage used.
