In Game Name: Koko_2022What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for: All Main ServersShort title for your suggestion: star items priceWhat are you suggesting: raise the price of star items at /warp starshop.Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?: Because some idiot keeps buying nstars and this will raise price of nstars making what he did not able to crash economy?Other information: yes.Plugin or custom addition: One suggestion per form: I Understand.
Thing is, we won't be able to change it by much, the max amount of nstars you can hold is 2,304, now lets say if we need to have 1 space empty for the startool not to drop on the floor when you buy it, that takes it down to 2,240. So really I don't see a way we can do this, only way I see is changing the EXP price of a netherstar, and that would take a lot of work to look into to see how it would affect the economy.
What about for example have it cost something not obtainable on ecc then make it so u can buy this with X number of nstars and u have to have X number of this item for/star item.
IDK tbh; with the price of netherstars collapsing before our very eyes (price is at like 800 and I'm now seeing it plummet further), something definitely needs to be done, but raising the number of nether stars necessary to get a star tool does nothing but disadvantage newer players, making it even harder than it currently is to keep player retention up. I think I'd rather new dumps for netherstars; features, ranks, etc. Maybe a rank you have to buy with NStars that reduces the max cost of additional towns?
I might make an alternate suggestion for this, but I have a few alternate additions that would be much better for taking stars out of the market compared to raising star tool prices: - add/re-add those unobtainable blocks, items, and heads to star shop (or alternatively, add the rarer ones you don’t see often in star casino, like the command blocks, if not all of the “junk prizes”) - Add the new “owner heads” that were recently added to God Crates to the star shop. I’ve seen people kind of complain that they won an owner head from their God Crate, so I feel this would be two changes for the better. - Add exclusive, one-of-a-kind lored Items that one can only acquire from star shop. I know if that gets added, a good number of people (myself included) would sink their nstars into it. - Make secondary ranks like Nether, End, and future similar ranks require nstars to achieve. Especially with 1.16 around the corner, many people would easily spend their nstars on this. These are just off the top of my head. I might actually post a suggestion regarding lored items and owner heads in star shop later.
The only thing on this list I disagree with is the nether/end ranks. Unless they add another tier, all doing that does is making applying for the rank (and getting the app done) more tedious and difficult. The rest of the stuff I agree with. I'd also probably suggest a revamp to the ecc block shop; add more blocks to it and re-organize the building so it isnt cancer to navigate.
It's not possible to raise star tool prices much above where they are without creating a totally new intermediary item due to inventory limitations. Charging nstars for ranks or making unobtainable items, well, obtainable isn't something we're willing to do, nor is necessary. We're not going to give out numbers, but even under the worst possible assumptions in terms of nstar prices/supply, the long-run impact of such a feared flood will be nil. And, of course, there's plenty of other things we can do as well to influence the market if at all needed. Like any market, this one is subject to irrational panics and fads and the wisest thing one can do is wait it out (or, even, go around purchasing stars at significant discounts). Remember when everyone thought prices would reach $2,000?
