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!

Posted Feb 29, 2012Would it be possible to set it up to have all money gained from selling items go to a specific account?
I track exactly how much money is in my economy, and I love the prospect of this plugin, but need to be able to control the money flow better...

So you're saying /sell [item] all doesn't work with data values?
I think I know the reason, should be a quick fix.
@stefanbosje
I don't know man. Everyone else seems to have no issues.
@MadlaineCraft
Even though I didn't put it in the future features list, this has been a planned feature and will be added eventually.
@Sacredox
No, but there will be :)

Posted Feb 29, 2012Bugs:
/sell wood all /sell sapling all /sell stonebrick
Those do not work with the different types of the same block for example when selling Birch wood, mossystonebrick or any other multiple item using that command you get the money but the items do not leave your inventory. Major bug.

I'll look into those ideas.
@goldseed
There are plans, but they aren't a priority.
@stefanbosje
No clue. I use Essentials and I have no problem. I'd recommend using iConomy as your economy instead of essentials, maybe that would fix your issue.

Posted Feb 28, 2012Just have 3 another idea : Add a Minecraft Time Restrict (You can't buy or purschase item if it's night). Add a SignShop (look like ChestShop but with unlimited stock). A command to allow to buy or purchase only one (or much) item on a region
Thanks a lot !

Try copying and pasting the contents of your edited file into this site and see if any errors pop up.

Fixes a lot of problems I have with configuration files that revert after my changes. Usually I screw up and misplace a space.

Posted Feb 27, 2012So I installed this tonight, went through and set velocities for some items to begin tinkering.... I change velocity, reload config, someone buys that item, and the velocity resets back to what it was before I edited it....

Oops, I guess I forgot to include it. It'll be included in v .7.9
@SwissMike
I'll look into it.
As it is, I need to look into Multi-World Support and ChestShops, which is already a lot of work.
But I'll definitely keep you and mind and let you know.

Posted Feb 27, 2012Is there any chance to get that compatible with Citizens-Traders?
Since i don't like ChestShops and i'm running a rpg-server, i'm using a recommended-price list for everyone to look into, we built marketplaces where we set our traders with a sign something like "pricelist * 1.25", but if we could use such a plugin like yours, that would be awesome :)
