Hey i was just wondering if it was possible to add some sort of banking system to ECC. I have no experience with coding so would be unable to do it myself and thought it best if more experienced people look for a pre-made plugin. But my idea was to be able to send your money to a bank, and add people to it as well. This way anyone with permissions could withdraw and/or deposit funds. That way groups would be able to work together better. NelsonLim, ElvinLim and myself, with the occasional help of SabriSalim, Baboolal, LordVoltanis and Hakeem work together(We've been friends for years and years), and it would be great to be able to pool our funds and access them at any time, rather than wait for one of the others to get online. Some of the features i would like to see are - Depositing of funds - Withdrawal of funds - Permissions for users to withdraw/deposit - History of deposits and withdrawals. Perhaps even interest!
It sounds cool but no idea how hard it would be to implement or if a plugin exists. I had thought about suggesting the opposite of interest as I have played on servers where they used a small percentage of funds decay. You lose like 1% or whatever number you set it to per night to help with slowing inflation.
--Thoughts--I think this would be a great idea. I really like this until I read the part about a group of people making one and sharing it. If one user would happen to get upset and withdraw money it would cause everyone to get angry. I honestly really like the idea for having your own mini-bank. People usually make exp. signs to store their money, but why not a [Bank] sign that only 1 person can access. Maybe have it so you have /bal & /bank or something like that. I just wouldn't like having another command. I think another sign would be the coolest thing, because everyone just resorts to making exp. signs and it seems like we need something like this. But keep in mind only the person who made it can access.
That's why i wanted permissions added, permission to withdraw, permission to deposit. If someone did get upset and withdraw all the money that's the group bank owners problem. As to the sign idea, we can already store money in signs. And I'm not really all that hopeful for interest lol.
- My Thoughts I would also like to have a "bank", but we do already in a way have a "bank" with a trade sign. It would be nice not always breaking the sign and replacing it to put more money into the sign, but maybe there could be a new command such as /deposit [Amount], and then you hit the sign. I think that would make it a lot more easier to deposit money into the sign. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I also think that having an "Exp Bank" would be very helpful as well. Lets say for an example, you had 20 levels of exp saving up, and a zombie come's up and kills you. When you return to the position the zombie kills you; you will more then likely get about 15 levels of exp back. In which case, I present this plugin where you can store you exp without making a sign for selling it. [ http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/xpbanker/ ]
