I’m looking for a plugin developer to help create a three-tier economy system for my server. The goal is to make progression feel rewarding while preventing inflation and pay-to-win abuse.
Core Concept
Tier 1: Cash (Basic Currency)
- Earned by mining, farming, mob killing, simple quests.
- Used for essentials: food, starter tools, teleport fees, etc.
- Should be easy to gain and spend frequently.
- Can use like the default /pay, /balance, /balance by EssentialsX
- Your plugin should be able to integrate along with EssentialsX plugin and not interfere.
Tier 2: Echo Coins (mid-tier currency)
- Earned through trading large amounts of Coins, rare drops, or mini-events.
- Used for higher-value items: special enchant books, cosmetic perks, better kits.
- Acts as a bridge between casual play and late-game progression.
- Can be purchased using Tebex Shop Store or other means I impose.
- Use commands like /coins, /coins pay, /coins balance, /coins top, etc etc
Tier 3: Shards (premium/high-tier currency)
- Hardest to obtain. Rarely dropped from dungeon events (not an issue for now, can ignore this part)
- Used for exclusive purchases: high-tier donor-style kits, rare cosmetics, unique commands (e.g., /nick), or flex items.
- Intended as the “long-term grind” currency.
- Shards can only be traded, for example 15,000 coins for 1 Shard. (you should allow me to have the flexibility to change the requirements for coins to shard ratio)
- Use commands like /shards. /shards pay, /shards balance, /coins top, etc etc
**Additional Features **
- Configurable exchange rates between currencies (Coins ↔ Gems ↔ Tokens).
- Support for integration with Vault (so shops and other plugins can use them).
- Separate balances for each tier, viewable with commands like /balance, /balance gems, /balance tokens.
- Simple, clean messages with gradient/color support (no messy formatting). Should allow me to configure apart from the base template.
- Option for leaderboards per tier (/balancetop coins, /balancetop gems, etc.).
- Optional daily/weekly quests that reward Gems or Tokens.
- Compatible with older versions and hoepfully newer versions when it releases
Server Info
- Version: 1.21.8 (Paper/Spigot)
- Existing plugins: EssentialsX, LuckPerms, WorldEdit, MyCommand, etc.
Goal: To add more depth and progression to the economy system instead of just one money type.
If you’re experienced with plugin development and economy systems, please reach out with your portfolio, estimated timeline, and rates.
- Please note: Existing Portfolio with purchasers and plugin reputation on your BuiltByBit Profile is mandatory. I don't entertain new developers.
- Seeking for in-house developer.
