Currencies Guide

0

User Guide

Prerequisites

  • A Spigot or Paper Minecraft server (1.13 or later)
  • Medieval Factions installed and configured

First Steps

After installing Currencies and restarting your server:

  1. Ensure you are a member of a faction in Medieval Factions.
  2. Hold the item you want to use as the currency's coin, then use /currency create <name> to create a new currency for your faction.
  3. Use /currency mint <currency> [amount] to mint coins of your currency.
  4. Open your coinpurse with /coinpurse to view your current coins.

Common Scenarios

Creating a Currency

A faction leader or a player with the appropriate faction permission can create a new currency. The item held in the main hand becomes the currency's coin, so an item must be held when the command is run:

/currency create GoldCoin

If the held item's display name does not already match the currency name, a Yes/No prompt is shown instead of creating the currency straight away. Yes renames the item to match the currency, and No keeps the item's existing name. The prompt can be skipped by passing the choice up front:

/currency create GoldCoin --rename
/currency create GoldCoin --no-rename

Minting Currency

Once a currency exists, authorised faction members can mint coins. Minting costs the minting player power (configurable) and may require an item cost. The amount defaults to 1 when omitted:

/currency mint GoldCoin 10

Viewing Your Balance

Check how many coins of each currency you hold:

/currency balance

Viewing Currency Information

Inspect the details of a specific currency:

/currency info <currency>

Listing Currencies

List every active currency on the server:

/currency list

The list can be filtered, and a trailing page number selects a page of results:

/currency list all
/currency list retired
/currency list MyFaction
/currency list all 2

Renaming a Currency

Rename an existing currency (requires faction permission). Leaving the new name off asks for it in a chat prompt, which can be exited by typing cancel:

/currency rename <currency> <new-name>

Setting a Currency Description

Set or update the description of a currency (requires faction permission). Leaving the description off asks for it in a chat prompt, which can be exited by typing cancel:

/currency set description <currency> <description>

Retiring a Currency

Permanently retire a currency so it can no longer be minted (requires faction permission). A confirmation prompt is shown first; retirement only happens once it is confirmed:

/currency retire <currency>

Using Your Coinpurse

Open your coinpurse inventory to view and organise your coins:

/coinpurse
