4.5 Economy

Money on the server is measured in dollars and shown as $. Every player has a personal balance, and every country has a shared country bank.

The shop

Open with:

/shop

The shop is a paginated GUI grouped into categories: Buy items, Sell items, and Special (for things like chunk vouchers, War TNT, and crate keys).

Items in the sell tab show their per-unit sell value. Selling is instant, no haggling, no taxes.

The country bank

Every country has a shared bank. It's used to pay for wall upgrades and wall repairs. To deposit:

/c deposit <amount>

To withdraw (officers and leader only):

/c withdraw <amount>

The bank balance is shown in /c info. There's no interest and no daily upkeep — what you put in stays there until someone withdraws or spends it.

Sellwands

A sellwand is a custom item that, when right-clicked on a chest, sells every supported item inside the chest in one go and credits the cash to your balance.

Valuable blocks

Valuable blocks are scattered across the map and look like custom ores. Mining them with a normal pickaxe gives the block as a sellable item; mining them with a valuable pickaxe (a custom item) auto-sells the drop and pays you in cash.

Admins can give a stack of valuable blocks or a valuable pickaxe with:

/c admin givevaluable <player> <type> [amount]
/c admin givepickaxe <player>

Bounties

Anyone can put a bounty on any player. The bounty pool stacks — if five players each post a $500 bounty on the same target, killing them once pays out $2,500. Bounties are listed in the /bounty menu.

Taxes

Season 3 doesn't apply automatic territory taxes. The cost of holding land is only the cost of upgrading and repairing your walls.
