Introduction

  • HyperConomy is the all in one economy plugin. It can run using its integrated economy plugin, or connect to an external Vault based economy plugin. HyperConomy supports chest shops, Showcase style item displays, sign shops, information signs which can display price changes like a stock market, region based shops, global shops, and much more. HyperConomy even includes an integrated web page which can display all of your item and enchantment prices. For data storage, HyperConomy uses either MySQL or SQLite, allowing easy manipulation of data. If you're running Tekkit, HyperConomy supports that as well; it should allow the addition of an unlimited number of custom items to the shop, allowing Tekkit servers to trade custom items.

    @Garfonzo: Go

    I'm currently working on this and have made a lot of progress. Player shops should solve this issue as the shop will be able to be tied to any account and will have stock levels that are not accessible by the main economy. Despite having private stock levels, player shops will affect the global economy's prices.

    Currently economies aren't meant to directly benefit one town or another; they're designed to facilitate trading and make it possible to make money by traveling between towns/kingdoms as a merchant. Profit will arise from price discrepancies as one town will have better prices than another for certain goods.

    I may add bank accounts to HyperConomy at some point so that the profits from one shop could be shared between multiple people without using an external economy plugin.

    @4am: Go

    The two problems that I can think of with item based economies are rounding and lack of support for a wide range of values. For instance, a dirt block might be worth a few cents, while a diamond could be worth over a thousand dollars. When you run into price discrepancies of this magnitude, I suspect it would be a pain to deal with in some situations. The choice is to make dirt and other nearly worthless items round up to a value much higher than their true value, or to trade an absurd amount of items for 1 diamond. If one emerald represented 1 cent, as in the above example, a diamond would be worth over 11000 emerald blocks. Gold makes this a bit better with the inclusion of nuggets, but it can still result in extreme rounding or extreme amounts of blocks being traded.

    I'm working on player owned shops currently, but fireworks will hopefully be one of the next big features I work on.

    Perhaps I'm missing something, but is there some way that a market/economy can be tied to a specific player's account or some other account? If we have town A and town B, each with their own economies (econ A and econ B) how can town A benefit from the sales of all items in econ A? How does the town get access to these funds? Likewise for town B? How does town B get access to the funds in this market?

    I guess I'm not totally sure how the separate towns can benefit from having their own economies.

    Wow, it's great to see such active developers - many of my favorite projects are getting a bit stale these days. Anyway, a server I play on runs this plugin (I think) and once I saw this, I decided it would be perfect for my server (which is currently a mess of PhysicalShop, SCS, and ChestShop). I just had two questions:

    1. Given the way this plugin works (market value, inflation, etc), would you recommend against running it with an item-based Vault economy such as Gringotts? Any disadvantages you can think of, other than the obvious limit on wallet size?

    2. How long until fireworks support is done? :)

    @LordKainzo: Go

    Yep, /toggleeconomy switches between any Vault based external economy plugin and the internal economy.

    Is there anyway to use our own economy plugin instead of the integrated ?

    @SharkCK: Go

    This should be fixed in the latest development build. Nice catch. It seems like several people found this one at around the same time.

    You can rename items to whatever you'd like, just remember that the actual names are stored in the database so editing items.yml will have no effect unless you delete the database and restart HyperConomy. (HyperConomy.db) It is possible to edit the database with a program like
    SQLite Database Browser. MySQL is easier though.

    I apologize for posting in the comments as I have this information in both the forum and an open ticket. First, on the ticket, my problem is that signs just stop updating and others break and most of the time it seems its after a server reboot. The stock signs break as well as the buy/sell signs and even the price signs quit updating. The repair signs command does not work and I believe I have noticed that the broken signs are ones that have the item names longer than what can fit on the first line (15 characters minus two to allow for the color code). If this is the case then could I do this:

    The following example is from the items.yml:

    potionoffireresist: 
information: 
type: item 
category: unknown 
material: POTION 
id: 373 
data: 3 
value: 153.0 
price: 
static: false 
staticprice: 306.0 
ceiling: 9.99999999999999E12 
floor: 0.0 
stock: 
stock: 0.0 
median: 500.0 
maxstock: 0.0 
initiation: 
initiation: false 
startprice: 306.0

    If I change the line, potionoffireresist: to... lets say 'bacon:' will I then be able to make a sign with 'bacon' on the first line and it will be for the fire resist potions since bacon is being tied to the potion's ID, etc.?

    @darklords666: Go @florianschlieper96: Go

    I will be working on the display issues. How exactly are you trying to change the prices? Using a fresh install there are several ways to change prices.

    If you want to use dynamic prices, first use /setstartprice. This should immediately change the price since all items start out in initial pricing mode. After that adjust the dynamic price by adjusting the value with /setvalue

    If you're using static pricing, first set the item to static with /setstatic and then change the price with /setstaticprice

    The items.yml file is only used to set up the database and import new items, actual price data is stored in the database.
