FTB Money Mod — Guide

User Interface

FTB Money adds several intuitive GUI elements to the standard Minecraft interface:

• Inventory Button: A small money-bag icon appears in the top-left corner of the player's inventory. Hovering over this icon displays the current balance. Clicking it opens the Shop GUI.
• Shop GUI: A centralized window where players can browse categories and purchase items. Each item listing shows the item icon, name, and price.
• Shop Editor: An administrative overlay within the Shop GUI that allows OPs to add, remove, or reprice items in real-time.

Shop & Trading System

The Shop system is the primary sink for the currency. It allows modpack creators to control the availability of rare resources or provide an alternative to traditional crafting.

Creating a Shop

To create a shop, an administrator must: 1. Open the Shop GUI (via the inventory button or /shop). 2. Click the + icon to create a new category (e.g., "Ores", "Food", "Tools"). 3. Within a category, click the + icon again to add an item. 4. Drag an item from the inventory into the slot and specify the price in the prompt.

Trading

While a dedicated /trade command was planned as a Work-In-Progress feature, most trading is currently handled through the /pay command. Players can agree on a price for an item and use the command to transfer funds securely without the need for physical currency items.

FTB Quests Integration

FTB Money is most powerful when used alongside FTB Quests. It adds two specific integration types:

1. Money Reward: When a player completes a quest, they can be rewarded with a specific amount of virtual currency. This is configured in the Quest Editor under the "Rewards" section.
2. Money Task: A quest can require a player to pay a certain amount of money to complete it. This is useful for "buying" progress or unlocking specific quest branches.
