    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    Main Server
    Short title for your suggestion:
    /bank transfer
    What are you suggesting:
    A new syntax for the /bank command which automatically transfers money cross-server for you - if you're on main north, it will transfer money from your main balance to main north.

    /bank transfer 10000 for example would transfer 10k without having to /main, /bank deposit 10000, /mainnorth /bank withdraw 10000.
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    I'm not sure if it's possible, or if it is possible but just too much effort to do. BUT, if it is possible, I think it would be really nice to reduce the hassle of having to cross between servers.

    so it'd have to be what, /bank transfer [server] [amount]?

    Seems like a lot and realistically you can cut out 90% of the work if you just keep all your money in the bank as a default if you plan on playing on multiple servers.

    I guess hypothetically it would autoswap, so if you're on main it would pull from Main North, and if on Main North it would pull from main. Although if that's too hard to set up, /bank transfer <server> <amount> {server could be accepted as M/MN or the full main/mainnorth} would work too.

    I personally don't like hoarding money in bank as I'm mostly an offpeak player, 11-1am EST is my time. It's easy to forget to pull money from the bank before it closes, so I like to keep some cash on hand.

    The plan is more main servers (per Andrew saying he has a script to do it). With more than two planned, an autoswap isn't a viable design. You'd need to specify to where.

    I could also see it causing confusion given "transfer" doesn't really make it clear whether you're "pushing" money or "pulling" it.

    This is definitely a neat idea, and I get my workaround is not practical in your use case. I'm just not sure it'd ultimately be worth the time put in.

    What if the money is never really in game and is always On the fourms?

    That would definitely be too much effort.

    Also, @Nicit6 the assumption would be that it pulls money to the server you're on, from the balance of the server you specify in the syntax.

    Exactly. Why not just keep it in the bank?
