Feature Description
Explore deeper integrations with the Ecotale plugin ecosystem for HyperFactions economy features. These would be optional integrations for server owners who want to enable an advanced economy module.
Note: Basic economy integration is already available via VaultUnlocked. This proposal is for deeper, faction-specific economy features.
Ecotale Plugins to Explore
| Plugin | CurseForge | Potential Integration |
|---|
| Ecotale (Core) | Link | Main economy mod - base dependency |
| Ecotale Marketplace | Link | Faction marketplaces |
| Ecotale Jobs | Link | Faction guilds / jobs system |
| Ecotale Coins | Link | Physical currency for raids/wars |
Proposed Integrations
1. Faction Marketplaces (Ecotale Marketplace)
- Factions could have their own marketplace stalls/shops
- Territory-based market access (only accessible in faction territory?)
- Faction taxes on marketplace transactions
- Alliance trade agreements / discounts
2. Faction Guilds / Jobs (Ecotale Jobs)
- Create faction-specific jobs ("Mine for [Faction Name]", "Guard duty", etc.)
- Jobs that can be posted for your own faction members
- Jobs that can be posted for other factions (mercenary work, resource gathering)
- Faction reputation system based on completed jobs
3. Physical Currency Rewards (Ecotale Coins)
- War/raid rewards paid in physical currency (lootable)
- Faction treasury stored as physical coins (raidable?)
- Bounty system using physical currency
- Makes raiding more rewarding and risky
