Beeing able to change the price would be most helpful, yes.

As for the limiting of bought nodes through adding "fillers" in the other slots: Yes, that works, but it does not look so great and is rather impractical.

Can I change some data in this mod? To use on my server?
I already translated this mod almost completely (for Portuguese).
I want to change only one thing. cr to M $.
The official currency on my server called Minemoney.

You mean change the name of the money? Edit the CURRENCY_POSTFIX variable in settings.lua.

Announcement

I worked on this mod to address the very issue I raised earlier about easier repricing; that's now in master. Punch to detune a shop, then right-click as usual to open the tuning form.
Details: https://github.com/Kotolegokot/minetest-mod-money/issues/1

I've also straightened out a minor bug that surfaced; and clarified (I trust) some of the words (code and displayed text) used to indicate the direction of a transaction.

Now kotolegokot has worked hard on this mod and created a truly important thing. But I'll be maintaining 'money' from now on and I hope to build on this excellent foundation. Various players have commented casually about things they want and I have a few ideas of my own.

So please, if you are running 'money' now, go ahead and update to the current 'master' branch head; and let me know what you want to see.

One thing that I've been meaning to code into this mod but never got around to is a way to specify merchandise by just dragging a sample of what is to be sold into the formspec rather than having to deduce it's item name; this would be particularly useful when selling stuff from mods like mesecons which have really odd names for their items…

Also, how about adding mesecons/digilines support (perhaps in the form of a block that produces a pulse when payment is issued) so that people can build things that require payment to run, like more generalized merchandise dispensers, pay gates, coin-operated laundry, or online banking…

Automatic determination of the name of the item that is to be sold is certainly important. Most players do not know the name of all items they want to sell. Maybe you could add merchandise to the shops inventory first and then, after something is inserted and thus it's certain what is to be sold, show the setup (shop name, amount to be sold together, price).

For shops that want to buy, setting a limit (only buy for x amount of money/only buy up to y of these) would be very helpful.

The vending system used on the Landrush server gives some helpful information in its infotext shown at mouseover: Is the shop owner out of money? Does the shop contain items? What is sold, and at which price? (even with price per item). That's a nice feature. Maybe that can be adopted for these shops here as well.

The barter shops on VanessaEs server have the advantage that they're able to exchange combinations of items for combinations of items. Maybe that would be too much for this mod as it's more money-based.

It would be great if it would be possible to see who bought which amount of items (not when!) so that you can offer regular customers presents or reduced prices occasionally (manually of course - that's nothing that can be automatized).

Another helpful point would be to have a node that shows you with one click which shops ran dry and need refilling.

If you want to really dig into it, combining the shops with the pipeworks mod and allowing automatic refill through pneumatic tubes might be fun.

I sort of accidentally happened across an admin shop vending machine on a server once and wound up placing an indestructible admin shop as well…

I believe that it is possible to dig admin shops if one has money admin privileges; otherwise, worldedit always works…

Or disable/remove from minetest/mods the money mod. It will give you a diggable unknown block. Then enable/put back in minetest/mods the money mod.

Could you ever make a single inventory_plus GUI that lists all items, for a server shop. I think nodex used to have something like that

by **BRICK** » Sun Feb 09, 2014 18:22

Is it possible for the shops to buy/sell more than one type of node?
For example, is there a way for the regular shop to sell 1 mese block and 1 steel block for 150?

Nope, that's not possible. You can only sell one type of item.

The barter shops from the currency mod allow to trade up to 6 stacks for up to 6 stacks. They can't buy/sell for money.

In MINETESTFOLDER/mods/money/settings.txt
Change it there, the variable is called "INITIAL_MONEY"

It should work if you change it here. Are you sure it is a new player to join. it can't be an existing account.

The nodename should be something like default:steel_ingot or wool:white.

Players need the money priv. You need to make sure you have the money_admin priv.

by **jwpwns** » Mon Apr 07, 2014 20:14

Players with the money priv should be able to use /money pay...

Any chance to merge this with the 'currency' mod? You have some good server commands here.
