As you start setting up Economy for your game, you must start by creating at least one Currency.
Head to the sub-page under Economy called Currency
.
Start by pressing Add Currency
.
You then have to give your new Currency a Name and a Minor Unit Name. The Code is generated automatically but can be overwritten. If you want to overwrite the Code, please keep in mind these restrictions. Code must be 3 characters long, it must be fully capitalized, there cannot be any numbers, special characters or whitespaces.
For this example we will be creating a Currency named Gold which has a Minor Unit Name "Gold coin". Press Save
and you have created your first Currency!
Currencies by default disables Game-API writes. To enable Game-API writes go to Actions on the Currency and press 'Enable Writes'
There are two ways of accessing a Currency's Denomination.
Inside the Denominations, you will see the Minor Unit that you created while making the Currency.
To add more Denominations you simply just press Add Denomination
.
We went ahead and added two Denominations, we will give them names and a value. The value means "How many of Gold coins equals 1 of Gold ingot or bars". Press Save Denominations
.
you have now successfully set up a Currency!
