Quote from Sleaker:

Did you purposely remove all your externally accessible methods? I'm about to drop support for your plugin in Vault due to everything all of a sudden being inaccessible in the new version.

or did you add new public methods I'm not aware of?

I did remove the public methods from several internal classes. This was due to a change in the data storage system of MineConomy. It made it much more prone to errors if other plugins (such as Vault or certain shop plugins) attempted to use these public methods incorrectly. As a solution, these classes were protected so the fatal errors from accounting, currency and banking loading/saving are not a concern and to ensure that MineConomy is safe, secure and effective.

An internal class communicator (me.mjolnir.mineconomy.internal.MCCom) allows for access to the accounting, banking and currency classes as well as performing necessary checks such as if something necessary exists, the maximum debt has been reached in an account, etc. The errors thrown are all stated in the MineConomy Javadoc.

I would really not prefer that you drop support in Vault. I would love to help assist with the Vault MineConomy listener, if you need any help. A basic method for getting an account balance in the Economy_MineConomy class would be:

import me.mjolnir.mineconomy.internal.MCCom;

... // Other public methods

public double getBalance(string playerName)
    {
        try
        {
            return MCCom.getBalance(playerName);  // Returns the balance of the specified player while making sure the player has an account
        }
        catch (NoAccountException e)  // Catch the error thrown if player doesn't have an account
        {
            MCCom.create(playerName);  // Create an account for the player, since they don't have one
            return MCCom.getBalance(playerName);  // Return their balance
        }
    }

If this particular Vault method were not done this way, MineConomy would have an exception thrown, which usually will stop MineConomy and cause all of the temporary account data to be lost. I am truly sorry if it causes any inconvenience to you, as I know my changes might cost a lot of time on your part.

Again, I would have no problem creating (or helping you create) a new listener based on the changes to MineConomy. PM me if you have any other questions or comments; I look forward to working with you.

Is it possible for this to sync with Essentials Eco?

MineConomy is compatible to run simultaneously with Essentials Economy without issue. Just be sure to let server members know to use MineConomy instead of Essentials.
MineConomy and Essentials Economy do not use the same account storage system, though. If you already have members with accounts in Essentials Econ, their balances can't be transfered to MineConomy currently.
If this didn't answer your question, feel free to PM me.

I love this plugin, but what is meant with "currencies"? Actual physical items used as money that you need to have in your inventory in order to buy from for example chest shops, and you might be able to craft them or ...?

Currencies are differently valued forms of money that MineConomy can use. Just like in real life, you can have different currencies for different people. A certain group may use "Dollars" while another group may use "Euros". A "Dollar" can be worth 1.0 and a "Euro" can be worth 2.0.

Physical Currencies are items that can be deposited into MineConomy or withdrawn (sort of like a shop). Physical currencies are totally configurable in MineConomy. A really cool feature I like about physical currencies is that they don't have to be items. Experience is an option for a physical currency.

I will be releasing a tutorial video this weekend explaining the ins and outs of MineConomy. The video should answer any more questions you or others may have, but don't hesitate to ask directly.

Quote from jhs232:

When will this plugin be updated for 1.2.3? I would love to use it for my server since it is an amazing plugin due to physical currency!

Hopefully by this weekend, some major features will be added and the plugin will be updated to 1.2.3.
Also a new favorite feature of mine will be implemented; items can be directly deposited into MineConomy!

Quote from Finlet:

Is this plugin still working/active? Because every time I use a command, I just get "/mc" back.

This plugin should still work and is active. If you get "/mc" returned, a command was probably inputted wrong. 1.0.5 is coming soon with Banks, Multiple currencies and improved data storage. If you are having trouble, PM me with the commands you are trying to use. I will do my best to assist you.

I have not gotten around to making a tutorial video, but I will do one as soon as 1.0.5 is released.

Can you add a feature for multiple currencies?

Yes, I am working on it. Many people have asked and I hope to make it the way you guys want. Currencies can be defined in their own file with their own unique currency value. This allows for currency conversion.

Does it support MySQL?

No. MineConomy uses its own database types currently and will be switching completely over to YAML in 1.0.5. No need to worry about your current files, though. MineConomy will be able to convert them on startup.
