Economy

Economy is a full-featured, server-focused economy mod for Minecraft Forge (1.20.1) designed to provide a flexible, performant, and extensible currency and trading system for multiplayer servers.

The mod introduces a server-wide currency (dollars), player-to-player transactions, server-managed shops, player-driven markets, and a robust API for integration with other mods.

Features

💰 Currency System

Persistent per-player balances stored server-side
Simple and secure player transactions
Built-in safeguards against overdrafts and invalid payments

Commands

/economy balance — View your current balance
/economy pay <player> <amount> — Send money to another player
/economy leaderboard — See the top 5 richest players on the server

🏪 Server Shop

Admin-controlled shops with infinite stock and funds, ideal for:

Server progression
Resource sinks
Stable pricing

Players can:

Buy items directly from the server
Sell items directly to the server

All listings are managed through an in-game admin UI.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Player Shops

A fully player-driven marketplace with real supply and demand.

Players can create:

Sell Orders — Sell items from their own stock
Buy Orders — Place requests for items at a set price and quantity

Features include:

Automatic stock tracking
Automatic balance handling
Listings removed when stock is depleted
Funds for buy orders are reserved up-front to prevent exploits

📦 Buy Order Inventory

Items obtained through fulfilled buy orders are stored safely in a dedicated inventory instead of being injected directly into the player’s inventory, preventing overflow or loss.

Players can access and manage these items at any time.

🎟 Money Vouchers

Admins can issue consumable Money Vouchers that grant currency when used.

Fully server-safe
Voucher value stored in NBT
Ideal for rewards, events, crates, or admin distribution

Command:

/economy admin voucher <amount>

🛠 Admin Controls

All admin commands are grouped under /economy admin.

/economy admin pay <player> <amount>
/economy admin take <player> <amount>
/economy admin set <player> <amount>
/economy admin shop — Manage server buy/sell listings
/economy admin voucher <amount>

Admin shop management is handled through in-game menus for ease of use.
