Here's a video with an overview of some of DE's features, graciously made by WoopaGaming!
Plugin is in BETA - Meaning it is not as perfect as I would like as of yet. I am still constantly adding features. Once I'm happy with the feature list, it'll be released into v 1.0. Expect v1.0 to have Chest Shops.
Support Pages
There's a lot to understand about DynamicEconomy, so visit some of these helpful pages!
-
Features
- Buy and Sell items in a global shop.
- Price automatically adjusts based on supply and demand!
- Customizable price ceiling & floor!
- Prefix the chat output with anything you'd like!
- Choose whether price changes are announced globally, locally, or not at all!
- Includes a custom alias file, so you can customize the aliases you use (Add whatever word in the world to stand in for, say, diamond, so if you call /buy purpleelephant it can buy you diamond!) - Even better, it already includes hundreds of aliases.
- Add items to items.yml at your whim! Just make sure to add aliases for them in alias.yml!
- Sort items into different groups, and then limit users to only being able to purchase or sell items from particular groups!
- You choose the default amount sold/bought if the user leaves out the amount argument.
- Features 340 items: the most commonly traded and used, as well as non-obtainable items and potions!
- Also, you can sell and buy enchantments! Enchant your items with any enchantment at any level, and then sell items from an item instead of selling the entire item itself!
- Custom Items.yml puts you in control of item prices, minimums, maximums, descriptions, and everything else!
- Change the price, price floor, price ceiling, price velocity, and stock, all from in-game without a restart or reload!
- Custom in-game command allows you to reload the DynamicEconomy config.yml
- Features help screen of all commands, usages, and descriptions
- Assess which features of your config are on and off from in-game.
- Simple permissions: permission is the same as the command name.
- DynamicSign - Signs that show the price, stock, velocity, ceiling, or floor of any item in REAL TIME! You can also change the colors the sign displays in!
- Find out the durability of any item in your inventory, or your armor!
- When you sell a tool or armor, the price you receive is proportionate to how much of the durability was used up. If an item is 25% used up, a player will only get 75% of the total price when he sells it! Stops "Infinite tool" abuses.
- Update Checker & Downloader!
- Sell and buy EXP!
- Data values for all woods, wools, saplings, slabs, and inks!
- Option to use either set-amount item velocities, or a percent velocity.
- The option to turn on "Price-Decay-Over-Time", meaning, if items aren't purchased for a long time, their prices will decrease! This is fully customize-able to the last bit; customize percent of price decrease, what's considered a "long time", and how often to check for these items! Or disable it all-together!
- Also, in addition to price decay over time, there's also price inflation over time, so items that aren't sold for a while will have an increase in price! This encourages sale of those items!
- Multi-World support!
- /sell hand and /price hand for selling or checking price of the item you're holding!
- Ban items from in-game instantaneously!
- Customizable random events! Make your own wacky random events that change the prices of items!
- Customize standard DE messages! Up to 32 of them, currently!
- Use your own custom currency.
- Custom log.txt file personalizes logging of all user commands for very intuitive, useful, and helpful logs for Server admins. No need to fuss over confusing server logs and exceptions. (You can disable it, if you want, too!)
- Sales & Purchase Taxes!
- Set taxes from in-game!
- Extensive region control! Select your own 3D regions in which users can buy and sell items!
- Alternative commands for /buy and /sell, so you can use other popular economy plugins in conjunction!
- Basic location control, such as setting a minimum height from bedrock in order to access the economy.
- Loans! With custom payback times, minimum and maximum loans, as many loans as you'd like, and more!
- Dynamic Interest rates for loans!
- Ability to ban the sale OR purchase of certain items!

@DetectiveGnomesley
I may implement that in v .6
It'll basically be an option in config called "velocity-percent", and instead of adding/subtracting velocity, it'll multiply and subtract/add.
ChestShop was always on the to do list, but it won't be out until 1.0.
@ksafin
A chest shop would be incredibly, fantastically awesome. It would be a lot easier. Also, could you please add an option for the prices to increase / decrease by percent instead of by a fixed value (Unless it's already there and I'm ignorant)?
@Griskardo
That's probably the last feature lol...
Like, that feature is what'll roll it from .9 to release 1.0.
I'm implementing many location based regulations for people who want to use a global shop, and a chest shop as well.
Next feature should definitely be shop signs that do it (so I could create a central city where you can buy and sell). Its probably easier than doing it with locations.
Working great so far.
@Marslar
if you write 3.0, it'll take 300%. 0.3 will take 30% 0.03 will take 3%
hello i saw that you didnt mention these in config file explanation and my english not very good so can you explain these log-writing: true salestax: 0.0 purchasetax: 0.0 deposit-tax-to-account: false account-name: '' location-restrict: true minimum-y: 10 alt-commands: false
Server is back up guys,
Should work now.
Everyone with the problem retricide posted, sit tight.
He was right, the update server is down; i'm working on a fix.
i am experiencing the same as below....
i have the same problem as below
Same problem as last time - the server you hook into is down, I assume.
I am using Essential GroupManager.
Btw what would be awesome too: prohibit sell or buy individually (like diamond: buy: false, sell: true; torch: buy: true, sell: false) Maybe use BOSEconomy bank accounts for the taxes, if that's supported by vault (just throwing out some random ideas)
Nevermind, I needed to enable alternate commands.
Your alternate commands dont seem to work. When players type them, it does nothing and repeats the command. For example
/desell iron 30
and it shows in white text
/desell [Item] (Amount)
And if you use /sell and put in 64 as an amount, it sells all your stacks of 64, but only pays you for one.
@eternia16
PEX has been known to not work well for permissions. Try to give permissions in both upper and lower case; DynamicEconomy.* and dynamiceconomy.* That seemed to work for a few people using pEX.
@kapel1044
Definitely, coming right up.
@megge208
I'll look into better error handling soon, it should have been a priority but I didn't make it a big concern; definitely worth investing time in though.
As for permissions, what plugin are you using?
DynamicShop type structure is coming, it's in the future updates section.
Can't seem to get it work, it just doesn't seem to accept my permissions and I'm using permissionsEX. All it does say to not OP-users, that they don't have the permission.
could you also implement maximum-y so players cant really sell items when NOT in mines ;> that would be useful to me
I keep getting "internal error" when entering commands in the wrong format (/dynecon help or /dynecon buy 50 stone e.g.) quick fix: catch NumberFormatExceptions and check if no command was found for the string (i guess you are using maps from string to "command" and if no command is found there is a NullPointerException)
And even owners dont get permission to use /hasupdate or /settax by default (only ops can do that, my owner group has permissions '*' and is i am still unable to check for updates without being op)
great plugin! love it so far, has great potential (please please please implement sign shops like in dynamicShop)
Sorry for the constant posts and updates changing every few minutes, I keep finding bugs and things to add that are simple to add or fix, so I don't spare any time
v .5.4 adds /deprice as an alternative command!
v .5.3 is out!
It has a fix for a bug in alternative commands from v .5.2 AND It added a few data values.
