Sign Bank
Sign Bank
Version 2.0.3 is out now!
(Download may be delayed due to approval time)
Dependencies [Vault]
Sign Bank is a Money and EXP Bank plug-in that allows you to store money/experience all fully automated through sign interaction.
Money Banks
The Money Bank system is all pretty straight forward, deposit money in, withdraw money out, interest is not implemented yet, but will be soon hopefully. To make a money bank, simply put, money bank on the first line of a sign, and it will auto create. Right clicking on the sign will access the bank and right clicks after that cycle through the Withdraw and Deposit. To withdraw/Deposit, simply enter the amount in chat and it will automatically make the transaction.
XP Banks
The Xp Bank system is a bit more complex than the Money Banks. To create, simply put, xp bank, on the first line of a sign and it will auto create. The Xp Bank system uses an algorithm to calculate exact amounts back and forth, mimicking Minecrafts actual Exp formulas so that very little(if any) exp is lost while depositing/withdrawing. The balance displayed on the sign for exp is total amount of exp as a value, not levels. Upon first accessing a Xp Bank, the Bank will inform you the max amount of levels you can withdraw from the bank at your current level. Be assured that virtually no exp is lost when using the bank but keep in mind that the Bank only works with depositing/withdrawing levels, not the exact amount of exp, because the amount of exp needed between levels fluxes, and my algorithm accounts for this. This is to avoid players from getting 10 levels, depositing, get 10 levels, depositing, etc etc get levels much easier and then just withdrawing the tons of levels.
ATM's
The ATM's are simply just signs that link to your money accounts, but only carry the Withdraw option. To create, simply put ATM on the first line of a sign, and the plugin will do the rest. These are more for random locations in your server for people to get money from the bank "On-The-Go". More of a real life simulation.

Change Log
Version 2.0.1: 12/6/2012
- Fix for decimalFormat Exceptions on xp Bank Depositing.
- Added another safety check for those not using logging and Log loading throwing Exception.
Version 2.0: 12/5/2012
- Full Code Rewrites to the File I/O and the Interest System. THIS WILL REQUIRE YOU TO REMAKE YOUR BANKS OR THE PLUGIN WILL BREAK!
Steps:
1. Turn off server.
2. Delete banks.yml
3. Start server with new SignBank.jar.
4. Remake Banks.
- FIXED! Interest System should now fully work in the sense of interest disbursion, max bank cap bypass, etc.
- ADDED! New Command! Players with the “sb.admin” permission can use the new “/sb interest disburse” command to force a bank disbursion immediately!
- FIXED! The long known PlayerMoveEvent Bug should now FINALLY be fixed, pending confirmation!
- More minor fixes, etc, can't think of them right now!
Version 1.7: 11/7/2012
- ADDED! Added 3 new commands. These commands allow you to “take”, “give”, and “set” money amounts directly to players accounts. The permission node to edit accounts is “sb.accounts.edit”.
- /sb set <PlayerName> <Amount> Sets the players balance to the amount.
- /sb give <PlayerName> <Amount> Gives amount to players account.
- /sb take <PlayerName> <Amount> Takes amount from players account.
- FIXED! Fixed the display for XP Banks, they no longer display Money Bank messages, but have their own display! Also adjusted some chat colors when using the /sb balance command, to make the values more apparent.
- FIXED! Hopefully fixed the issue with the max bank cap bypass not working properly and causing other issues to occur on rare occassion.
- ADDED! You can now Log all User transactions to a Logs.yml file. Toggleable through config. Default: true.
- CHANGE! Changed the permission node for bypassing max bank cap to “sb.account.bypass”.
- Updated to CB 1.4.2 - R 0.2.
Version 1.6: 8/7/2012
- Updated PlayerChatEvent to AsyncPlayerChatEvent.
- Updated all the exp algorithms to match the new internal experience algorithms for 1.3.1. This was not fun to convert!
- NOTE: EXP is not being reset for this and you may see a flux in your players exp from old algorithms to new. If you want to just start fresh, delete your xpAccounts.yml before starting your server back up.
- Added a check for NPE's being thrown for interest disbursion on start ups involving Null worlds.
- Fixed issue when Interest would disburse improperly for players with bypass node when the Server ran through multiple cycles without a restart.
- Updated to CB 1.3.1 - R 1.0.
Version 1.5: 7/5/2012
- Added a new bypass permission node for Max Bank Amounts.
- sb.bypass.maxbankamount
- Fixed a bug with the Interest System not respecting the Max Bank Amount values.
- Fixed a save bug with Max Bank Value not properly storing when SignBank loaded.
Version 1.4 : 6/6/2012
- Moved around some listener classes to better accommodate priority.
- Added in new classes to manage Plugin Hooks.
- Fixed any remaining bugs that should be stopping some servers signs' to not function properly.
Version 1.3.1 : 6/5/2012
- Latest Beta Build, to ensure all signs are functioning.
- Modified /sb to once again navigate a bit smoother to the help menu.
Version 1.3 : 6/4/2012
- *NEW* Added in a Max Bank Amount that can be configured in the config.yml. This will allow you to limit the amount a player can store in a Money Bank at any given time.
- *REMODELED* Completely redid the Interest System. Now the Interest System will better keep track of the last disbursion of interest and disburse accordingly. So now if you r server is restarted, or goes down for any reason, Sign Banks will take this into account and will disburse interest upon start up or wait the remaining time till next disburse, then continue on its normal timer.
- /sb interest will now also display the amount of time until the next interest disbursal.
- /sb see <playername> command is no longer case-sensitive.
- Added more precise coloring to some of the /sb commands.

- Added permission node for using the new /sb see command.
- sb.see
Version 1.2.1 : 5/9/2012
- Fixed a bug where players could use colors to makeshift their own bank signs.
- Fixed a bug where opening banks of other types would cause the first sign to become frozen.
- Code cleanup as usual.

Are you using 1.3? This is very interesting, as the interest variable is irrelevant to accounts etc. I will take another look into the system, maybes there is some really odd exception or logic bug I am just missing, thnx for the info.
@Arsinia
I am running on 1.3 and my signs are working. I will push my beta build out I have atm just to make sure that everyone has a working version.
@xclucky
xp banks are not timed sensitive, tell your players to just stand closer to the sign ^_-. They have a manual close if the player is too far from the sign, just stand closer and you will see this error vanish without a trace ^-^.

I recreated the error today and I know exactly was causes it to happen. This time however it all went to a different users account. If I adjust the interest at all, I get the previously stated behavior. In this case I made interest 2.01% and when interest was applied all the balances went haywire. My account was left with $1 and other accounts went up to 5mil+. I have reset the interest to default and I'm thinking it will work correctly again. I'll let you know in 6hours. =)

Well, for some reason with version 1.3 the signs are not working. I had to downgrade, also, I do not know if its fixed in the new version or not, but there seems to be a problem with the xp banks where the timing is rather sensitive, you practically have to double right click the sign in order for the messages to stay up. Also, I do not know if is related to this plugin or not, but there is one area in my bank where I can not place signs on the wall, whenever I place them on the wall, they pop right back off. I have tried restarting the server and everything. The strange thing is though, Its only when I add colour to the sign, whether it be by &# or this plugin; if I just place a sign on the wall saying "-Booth Closed-" or anything else, it works perfectly fine. The following plugins are the only ones I can think of that use or alter signs: LWC, Essentials, RebuildPlugin, ResidenceSigns, Deathtpplus, MobArena.
If you would like my full plugins list, please request it.

Don't worry about this, this is not an error. This is just a hook into one of my new coming plugins, it's a very interactive/editable Chat Plugin.
@ViRUSesOfDeath
Same thing as above, as well as no, there will never be XP Interests.
@meep94meep
I don't really understand what you are asking.
@ToddVee
No MYSQL support atm, simply because this is a low key plugin. If it gets more popular, I will add it. And if the plugin isn't working, just saying i do this and doesn't work, is REALLY annoying and helps neither of us as I am not a telepath and can read your error logs, without error logs.

It would be nice to add Interest System for XP Banks and take some money for save XP.

1. No hooks, theres nothing for Sign Banks to hook into? It's not part of iConomy, if you want your players to see top balances, use /money top for iConomy.
2. If you really don't know what interest is, a simple Google search will solve this. Also, if you want to know what the configurable config options are, open the config.yml.

Posted Jun 3, 2012Could you make this hook into /balancetop with essentials somehow? My players are complaining that they can not see who is richer :/ The human disease of greed... Also, what does interest timer do again? A list of the configurations and what they do would be very helpful.

Ive looked through all these plugins, and then back at my source code, and I can't seem to find anything that would really bother SignBanks since the interest is it's own Runnable and only adjusts FlatFile info then just, resaves it. I will keep looking but for now I don't know what to tell you bud.
