Description
AntsEconomy — Simple UUID-Based Economy for Hytale
AntEconomy is a lightweight economy plugin for Hytale servers, inspired by classic Minecraft plugins like Essentials.
It provides a clean money system with balances, player-to-player payments, and admin economy controls — built with UUID-based storage.
Features
- UUID-based balances (safe against name changes)
- Player name tracking for readable messages and admin commands
- Thread-safe in-memory balance cache
- Offline-safe admin commands
- Forward-compatible with future permissions plugins
Commands:
Player Commands
/balance <player>
/bal <player>
View your own or another player's balance.
/pay <player> <amount>
Send money to another player.
/balance hud on/off
Toggle the Balance hud element on/off
Admin Commands
/eco give <player> <amount>
Add money to a player.
/eco take <player> <amount>
Remove money from a player.
/eco reset <player>
Reset a player’s balance to the configured default.
/eco set <player> <amount>
Set a player's balance to a specific amount.
Permissions
- Permission | Description -
antseconomy.balance | View your own balance
antseconomy.balance.others | View other players’ balances
antseconomy.balance.hud | Toggle the hud on/off
antseconomy.pay | Pay other players
antseconomy.admin | Access /eco
antseconomy.admin.give | Use /eco give
antseconomy.admin.take | Use /eco take
antseconomy.admin.reset | Use /eco reset
antseconomy.admin.set | Use /eco set
AntsEconomy uses the requirePermission() functionality and so it should automatically integrate with future permissions plugins that read the same system.
Configuration
AntEconomy uses a JSON-based configuration (Hytale standard).
Example config.json:
{
"DefaultBalance": 1000,
"CurrencyPrefix": "$"
}
Installation
- Download the plugin JAR
- Place it in your server’s mods/ directory
- Start the server once to generate config.json
- Restart the server after changing values
No additional dependencies required
Planned Features
- SQLite support when Hytale include a driver
- Transaction history
- Some kind of Placeholder API for UI mods
- Offline payment notifications
- Public API for other plugins
- Banking system (Maybe a seperate mod for this)
- VaultUnlocked support

CurseForge Staff Note: This is an in-game Economy API/System and no real-world transactions are performed through this plugin/mod.
