Minecraft plugin CoinsEngine

🔌 About CoinsEngine

CoinsEngine — is a Minecraft server plugin that provides a lightweight, highly customizable economy system with support for unlimited virtual currencies. It is designed to let server owners create and manage Coins, Points, Tokens or any custom currency from one plugin without requiring multiple economy plugins.

🎯 Purpose

CoinsEngine solves the problem of juggling several single‑currency plugins or limited economy systems by providing:

• unlimited custom currencies (each with its own name, symbol and format)
• optional Vault integration so other economy‑compatible plugins can use a chosen currency
• database storage (SQLite or MySQL) and cross‑server sync options These capabilities let networks, survival servers and minigame servers centralize their economy. ()

⚙ Main features

• Unlimited currencies with custom identifiers, formats and symbols. ()
• Optional Vault Economy support (select a primary currency for Vault). ()
• PlaceholderAPI support for placeholders in messages. ()
• Decimals or integer balances, configurable start values and max values per currency. ()
• Custom per‑currency commands (e.g. /coins, /gems) and optional economy commands (/pay, /balance, /balancetop). ()
• Exchange rates between currencies and player‑to‑player transfers with configurable rules. ()
• Wallet/aggregate balance command and leaderboards (top balances). ()
• Data migration tools and operation logs for auditing transactions. ()
• API/hooks for other plugins and cross‑server compatibility options. ()

🧩 Who it fits

CoinsEngine is suitable for:

• Survival and semi‑vanilla servers that want multiple currencies (coins, shards, tokens).
• Minigame servers that use a separate currency per game or reward type.
• Network setups that need cross‑server balances and a single economy source.
• Admins who want Vault compatibility without running multiple economy plugins. ()

🏗 Usage examples

• Create a Coins currency and a separate Gems currency with their own commands and display formats.
• Use Vault integration to make Coins act as the primary economy for shop plugins that rely on Vault.
• Migrate balances from another economy plugin while keeping old plugin behavior during transition. ()

⌨️ Commands

Notes: CoinsEngine generates per‑currency commands and optionally registers common economy commands (/pay, /balance, /balancetop) depending on configuration. Exact command names are defined by the currency configuration and are not fixed by the plugin. ()
