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 Apr 9, 2012Hi,
this plugin is an very nice idea. I find it would be cool, if this plugin could work together with ChestShop and other plugins which connects to Vault.

Posted Apr 8, 2012Working on a fix for the experience buy/sell bug.
Unfortunately bukkit or minecraft has a bug/glitch where enchantments don't deduct from your "Total Experience" which is causing the bug..
I'm talking with a friend and we're doing a lot of serious math to figure out a way to approach experience without any bukkit or MC help, so bear with me :P

I'll look into it. I don't know if I'll put in a disable/enable, but I'll reduce spam in log.
When you say they use the tool, do you mean they're using it to make an actual region, or they're just using a wooden shovel for other stuff and its logged?

OK, laggs is minor problem (it can be cased also from others plugins)... Mayor problem for me now is Region selection tool... Users ofte use this tool, so in DynamicEconomy Log all time is record about region selection...
Like in P.s.s in previous post
Can you put a setting to disable and enable this tool?

I don't know; I've been getting this message for a long time, with or without DynamicEconomy.
I've always ignored it, everything has worked fine.

ksafin, i do not know why and how... but something is wrong...
Plugins the same, only DynamicEconomy has been updated from 8.31 to 8.5, but [WARNING] Can't keep up! Did the system time change, or is the server overloaded? keep spaming all time.... (with 8.31 wasnt problem likt that)
As soon as i put 8.31 the message stops spaming.
P.s. Server has 5Gb ram and only 1 is used and 4 is Unused so it isnt lack of ram...
also CPU isnt overloaded, it works on 30-50%, like normaly
P.S.S
I found that Region selection tool is always enabled.... So players who use this tool all time mark Region... MayBe it can be Case of Laggs?

Yea I'll add bucket and grass.
Yeah the reason is because it goes through your entire inventory, adds up the prices of everything, then just clears your inventory and pays you.
So it doesn't remove each item one by one and pay you, but it sums up your payment, clears it all, then pays you.

Posted Apr 8, 2012For now works fine... but still cannot sold bucket :D
I all time forget to write about it... When you try to sell bucket it shows You do not.... 1 BUKKET and when you try to sell BUKKET it shows that items do not exist...
With lava and waterbucket no problems at all...
Also could you add Grass as block? Because it is realy easy to get... And some bug/problem... When you sell INVENTORY it sold also items, which you cannot sold like bucket or grass... it took it away and give you 0 for that

Posted Apr 8, 2012This has been long awaited - POTIONS - v .8.5
NOTE: I set the price of all potions to 5 because I have no clue what to value them at. So all of them will start at 5 dollars with, I believe, a .2 velocity. I suggest changing these settings before usage, unless you want people buying double strength potions for the price of regular potions. Also, I included ALL potions, including ones that can't be obtained in-game (thick potion, some extended and II potions). Feel free to ban, or keep. I'm giving you that option.
You may now buy and sell the following potions:

Posted Apr 8, 2012I waited for a day to see if anyone will post this, but no. I downloaded "new" patch, but it's the same file as the older version, and it keeps spamming I need to update. The new download from this dev.bukkit.org is same as the older version, same size, same thing, same update notice.

This makes no sense. Why would some signs work correctly and others not? Its not like im doing anything differently.
I even tried hard-writting a sign in the yml file, with no success. Several reloads were unable to activate the signs either.
These issues are not something that would keep me from using this plugin, I think it's beast. My players love how they can watch live statistics of the market, in thier own home. I even have people building market exchanges in their towns right now. They are all reporting that specific signs are not working. But due to the small nature of my server, I need an economy that fluctuates exponentially, not linear through velocities. Which is why I wait to give players the ability (permission) to sell and buy.
Other than that, I would say this addon is essential to any non-pvp server to keep things interesting.

Posted Apr 8, 2012Guys, I don't see the issue of servers not logging you in as DE's fault.
I'm unable to login to my server like many of you guys, but getting rid of DE or switching to 8.31 doesn't help.
When I disable online-authentication, however, I log in right away.
Maybe MC's servers are being slow or buggy.
