SG Economy API

Overview

SG Economy API adds a flexible, modern, and extensible economic system to Minecraft. It works as a Mod API, allowing players, modpack creators, developers, and server administrators to create and integrate custom economies in a simple and consistent way.

The economic system is based on a persistent numeric balance, directly associated with player data. This balance is not represented by in-game items, functioning as a “virtual wallet” whose name, meaning, and usage may vary depending on the implementation or integration with other mods.

Key Features

💰 Flexible Monetary System

Allows configuration to use integer or decimal values, adapting the economy to different use cases (simple currencies, systems with cents, etc.). The configuration is done via a file and directly affects the format of the stored balance.

🔧 Developer API

Provides documented classes and methods for:

• Querying and modifying player balances
• Native integration with other mods
• Creating custom economic systems

The GitHub repository includes practical examples and implementation guides.

🛠️ Administrative Commands

Includes commands for in-game economy management, allowing:

• Balance checks
• Adding, setting, or removing values
• Transferring balance between players (optional)

These commands can be enabled or disabled according to server needs.

🖥️ Display Interface

Displays the player’s economic balance in the inventory interface and/or on-screen, in a visual and configurable way. The display reflects only the value stored in the player’s data, with no relation to physical items.

⚙️ Configuration Files

Configuration files allow customization of the economic system’s behavior, including currency format, balance retention rules, available commands, and interface display options.
