[CGMZ][Alpha] Currency System for RPG Maker MZ
A downloadable plugin
Hi all,
This plugin creates a currency system that can handle more than one currency. It does not touch the default currency set up in the database, so should be highly compatible with other plugins that utilize the default currency in some way.
Currencies can be undiscovered or discovered, and this will determine which currencies the player sees when they open the currency scene. Currencies can have their own customizable icon, name, short currency unit, description, max amount, and associated color.
Currently, the currency system works by setting the current "main currency" which causes the game to use different currencies in things such as the gold display window or the shop. The game starts with the "default" currency selected, but you can change the main currency to any valid currency id you have set up which will then be the main currency.
You can also create gold double party effects for custom currencies via a note tag on weapons or armors.
Items, weapons, and armors can all have their own custom buy and sell prices in custom currencies as well.
Plugin commands exist for getting the currency amount or the current main currency so you can easily use conditional branches based on the new currencies.

can this plugin be used to create a DnD style currency system?
you know where you have a hierarchy of coins, something like "copper < silver < gold < platinum" where for example 100 copper coins are 1 silver coin, 100 silver coins are 1 gold coin and 100 gold coins are 1 platinum coin, etc
Hi, this plugin allows you to create as many custom currencies as you want, however it does not allow for having a hierarchy of coins within a single currency like you describe yet.
very well thank you for the quick answer
in that case my search continues
你好,这真的是非常好的插件。但也许我的操作有问题,我不确定如何用特殊货币进行交易。我想知道你能不能告诉我如何使用第二种货币进行结算?
Hi, how it works for shops is that you will use the Plugin Command to Set Main Currency to whatever currency you want to use in the shop, and then change back after the shop processing event command if needed.
I see! So just switch to the main currency before the store and then switch it over afterwards and it will work? Thank you very much for your reply!
Sorry!It was so late yesterday that I forgot to translate the comments posted up!I'm sorry for the trouble! I'm very sorry!
Hi, it's ok, did you get it working?
It can work now! Very interesting plugin! The second currency setup is very interesting!
