# 💎 ECore — the complete economy for Paper & Folia **ECore is an all-in-one economy plugin for Minecraft 1.21+.** It covers money, an auction house, banks, jobs, taxes, a supply-and-demand server shop and Discord logging, all sharing one fast, crash-safe core. Turn on the parts you want and switch the rest off. > Runs on **Paper, Purpur and Folia** · **SQLite, MySQL and MariaDB** · works with **Vault** and **PlaceholderAPI** · messages in **English and Polish** --- ## ✨ Why ECore? - **One plugin instead of six.** Economy, auction house, banks, jobs, taxes and a shop share the same accounts, currencies and database. - **Your players' money is safe.** Every balance change is atomic, and money is stored as exact whole numbers, never floating point. The database layer retries until a write succeeds, so a database hiccup doesn't lose money. - **No lag.** Balances live in memory and are written to the database in ordered batches in the background. In our tests 8,000 transfers (about 24,000 database writes) reached MySQL in under 2 seconds. - **Folia native.** Built on Paper's region-aware schedulers from day one, not patched in later. - **Easy switching.** Import balances from EssentialsX or any other Vault economy plugin with one command. --- ## 💰 Core economy - **Unlimited currencies** (`currencies.yml`): symbol, format, 0–2 decimals, starting balance, max balance, per-world use and a permission to use it - **Number formatting**: `1,234.50`, compact `1.2k / 3.4M / 1B`, and input like `/pay Steve 2.5k` - **Full Vault support**, including per-world currencies and Vault banks - **Leaderboard**: `/baltop` with clickable pages - **Transaction log** with `/ecore history` and automatic clean-up - **Suspicious activity alerts**: large transfers and transfer bursts are reported to admins ## 🏪 Auction house - GUI with **categories, sorting** (newest, oldest, price, ending soon) **and search** - **Escrow and anti-dupe**: a purchase reserves the listing before any money moves, so an item can only be sold once, and every click in the menus is protected - **Collection bin**: expired, cancelled and undeliverable items wait here and never get lost - **Listing fee and sale tax** as money sinks, min/max price, allowed currencies - **Listing limits** by permission (`ecore.auction.limit.`) - **Blacklist**: materials and name patterns, including items hidden in shulker boxes and bundles - **Notifications**: sellers are told about sales instantly, or get a summary when they log in - **Sale history** with `/ah history` ## 🏦 Banks - **Personal bank**: money kept apart from the wallet, with a GUI for quick deposits and withdrawals - **Tiers by permission** (`ecore.bank.tier.`): each tier has its own capacity and interest rate - **Interest** at a set interval, with a cap per payout. Banks idle for too long earn nothing, which stops interest farming on alt accounts. - **Shared / guild banks** (`/gbank`): owner, manager and member roles, invites, kick, promote, a member limit and a creation cost - **Deposit and withdrawal fees** (money sinks) and a full history for every bank - **Vault bank API**, so plugins like Towny can use ECore banks ## 👷 Jobs - **Five ready jobs**: miner, woodcutter, farmer, hunter and fisherman. Add your own in `jobs.yml`; wildcards like `*_LOG` work. - **Levels and XP**: every level raises income - **Multipliers**: per level, per permission (`ecore.jobs.multiplier.`), and server-wide boosts with `/jobs boost 2 60` - **Daily income limit**, which survives restarts - **Anti-exploit**: - placed blocks pay nothing, even after a piston moves them; - cobblestone, stone and obsidian generators pay nothing; - crops pay only when fully grown; - mobs from spawners, eggs and golem farms pay nothing; - mob grinders are limited per chunk; - creative mode pays nothing. - Earnings are **paid in batches** (one transaction every few seconds instead of one per block), with instant action-bar feedback ## 📈 Dynamic market - A **server shop with supply and demand**: players selling an item lowers its price, players buying it raises it - **Price protection**: every price stays between a minimum and maximum of its base price - **Automatic balancing**: prices drift back to their base over time - **Money sink**: the sell price is a fraction of the buy price, so flipping items never pays - Splitting trades gives no advantage, because every unit is priced separately - GUI with categories, live prices and trends, plus `/sell hand`, `/sell all` and `/market price ` - About **60 ready items** in five categories ## 💸 Taxes and inflation control - **Progressive brackets**, applied marginally like real income tax - **Transfer tax** on `/pay`, done in the same atomic operation as the transfer - **Per-world multipliers**, e.g. double tax in the Nether or a tax-free spawn - **Wealth tax** on large balances (optional, active players only) - **Anti-inflation automation**: ECore measures the money supply every day. If it grows faster than your target, tax rates rise automatically; if slower, they fall. Market sell prices follow. - **Statistics** with `/tax stats`, and a preview of any transfer's tax with `/tax calc ` ## 🔔 Discord - **Webhooks**, no bot needed - Events: large transfers, suspicious activity, admin balance changes, auction sales and listings, wealth tax and job boosts - **Daily economy report**: players, new players, money in circulation, the richest player, taxes, market, auctions and job income - Mentions are always disabled, so a player named `@everyone` can't ping your server --- ## 🧰 For server owners - **Modular**: switch each module on or off in `config.yml` - **Everything configurable**: every message uses MiniMessage (English and Polish included); GUI layouts, materials and sounds can be changed - **Automatic database migrations**: updating never needs manual SQL - **Update notifications**: admins get a clickable chat notice when a new ECore version is out on Modrinth - **Import**: `/ecore import essentials` or `/ecore import `, with a preview before anything changes ## 🔌 Placeholders (PlaceholderAPI) | Placeholder | Example | |---|---| | `%ecore_balance%`, `%ecore_balance_%` | `$1,234.50` | | `%ecore_balance_compact%` | `$1.2k` | | `%ecore_top___name%` / `_balance` | `Steve` / `$5,300.00` | | `%ecore_job_level_%`, `%ecore_job_progress_%` | `12`, `57` | | `%ecore_jobs_earned%` | `$1,250.00` | | `%ecore_tax_multiplier%` | `1.05` | ## ⌨️ Main commands | Command | What it does | |---|---| | `/balance`, `/pay`, `/baltop` | Money | | `/ah` | Auction house | | `/bank`, `/gbank` | Personal and shared banks | | `/jobs` | Jobs | | `/market`, `/sell` | Dynamic market | | `/tax` | Tax rates and calculator | | `/eco give\|take\|set\|reset` | Admin balance management | | `/ecore reload\|info\|update\|import\|discord` | Administration | All limits, tiers and multipliers are permissions, so ECore works with LuckPerms or any other permission plugin. ## 🧩 Developer API ```java ECoreAPI eco = ECoreProvider.get(); Currency coins = eco.getDefaultCurrency(); TransactionResult result = eco.withdraw(player.getUniqueId(), coins, Money.toMinor(new BigDecimal("25.50")), "myplugin:shop"); ``` The API includes balances, transfers and currencies, plus cancellable events (`PreTransactionEvent`, `AuctionListEvent`, `AuctionPurchaseEvent`) and `PostTransactionEvent` / `AuctionSaleEvent`. --- ## 📋 Requirements - **Paper, Purpur or Folia** 1.21.1 or newer, including 26.x (plain Spigot is not supported) - **Java 21** or newer (Minecraft 26.x servers need Java 25) - Optional: **Vault** (needed by other plugins to use ECore money), **PlaceholderAPI** Tested on Paper 1.21.11, Paper 26.3 and Folia 1.21.11 with SQLite, MySQL 8.4 and MariaDB 11.4. ## 📊 Statistics ECore uses [bStats](https://bstats.org/plugin/bukkit/ECore) to collect **anonymous** usage statistics: server count, player count, versions and which modules are enabled. No player data is collected. Turn it off with `metrics: false` in `config.yml`, or for all plugins in `plugins/bStats/config.yml`. The update notifier contacts the Modrinth API to look for new versions; turn it off with `update-checker.enabled: false`.
