About this Mod
PaywallCraft turns Minecraft into a ridiculous coin-powered survival challenge where almost everything costs money.
Players start with coins, then must buy access to things before using them. Want to punch a tree? Buy that log type. Want to attack a mob? Buy that mob. Want to eat cooked beef, use a pickaxe, milk a cow, shear a sheep, open a chest, throw an ender pearl, or drink a potion? Better check your balance first.
Features:
Buy block types before mining or placing them
Buy mob types before attacking them
Buy tools, armor, weapons, food, potions, ender pearls, and eyes of ender before use
Pay once to milk cows and shear sheep
Pay once per chest to open it
Sell held block stacks back for coins
Player-specific unlocks and balances
Simple /paywall commands for balance, selling, and admin coin giving.
Automatically prices most registered blocks, items, and mobs, including many from other Forge mods.
A silly challenge mod for anyone who looked at Minecraft and thought, “What if capitalism made this worse?”

Server lagging with PaywallCraft – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if PaywallCraft consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
