Simple_Trade allows players to trade items and (later) dinosaurs at specially created structures, known as Mod Simple Trade TradeTable Base.png Trade Table.

This can be done in exchange for the new currency "Simple_Coins" or other items. Items from other mods are of course supported.

The focus is on a dynamic platform that can be configured by admins in many aspects. For example, settings can be made for each item that is sold/bought through the Trade Tables. These include minimum and maximum price ranges, exclusion of selling/buying, and more.

All these settings can be dynamically set via a crossplay-friendly interface ingame and do not require a server restart!

Features

  • Trading - In the form of Trade Tables, buying/selling all items + mod contents.
  • Admin Trade Tables - Offers set by admins with advanced settings for availability.
  • Configuration - Fully dynamic in-game, without the need for a restart! Detailed to cover various scenarios.
  • Decorations - Includes a growing collection of decorative elements that complement the "market stall" style of the Trade Tables.
    • Also, the Trade Tables are available in several decorated variants! You can find them all here -> Mod Simple Trade TradeTable Base.png Trade Table
  • What's next? - This mod hasn't reached the end of its catalogue yet, more features are listed below!

Trading

The Mod Simple Trade TradeTable Base.png Trade Table can be used in two different ways. The desired mode can be set at the table itself.

Player to Player

This is the default state when setting up the tables; every player can set up a Trade Table and stock it with offers as the owner.

  • Creation of buying and selling of all items, according to set rules
    • Here, sales are created from the inventory, and for purchases, the desired item is selected from a list
  • All items (except Cryos and very specific items from mods) are readily tradable!
  • Offers in large quantities or in specific numbers (e.g., 1,000 metal ingots in packages of 100 each at price x)
  • Payment for buying and selling with a currency set for everyone or other selected items

Admin to Player

  • Creation of offers in the AdminTable (after switching modes)
  • No need to bring items, offers are created via an interface
  • Here too, buying and selling to players
  • Creation of bundles (multiple items for one price)
  • Special settings for the availability of offers:
    • Infinite supply or limited purchase until sold out
    • Settings for restocking offers (hourly, daily, weekly)
    • Limit per player or per tribe
  • Synchronizing offers between tables (there's no need to set everything separately at each table)
