Thanks

when you want robbery etc, why you dont take the Ultimate Points Mod?

I second that... I recommend Ultimate Points Mod.

The way the multiple currencies will work will require this system that my co-developer and myself have created. A simple API interface form another mod would require a rewrite of the entire for for this mod.

Yeah, I know, but I decided to go on Advanced Points Mod and modded a bit myself to do things that it wasn't doing as it was coded (as robbery levels).

For me, the only reason to change my points mod for another is a shop or any other major functionality. But my skills are not good enough to code a robbery system from the scratch, and I would like to keep them (Advanced Points Mod includes robbery and lottery)

Ultimate Points Mod includes lottery and robbery as well. The key point though is I don't believe Adrian (the mod author of APM) supports the AP mod anymore

The way the system is planned to work and how it is being designed, any cash mod will be completely incompatible. Otherwise a multiple currency system, item requirement, and alchemy system will not be possible.

I don't think so. I'm willing to change my mod for this if I can finally get a shop. BTW, Alchemy system sounds great. Thank you for working in this mod.

Yes, I know that APS is abandoned, but I'm too lazy to change a mod that is working for another that does the same, but thanks anyway for the tip.

From our discussions on IRC regarding the Alchemy system, it sounds like it would be quite interesting to see in action...and from the way he explained it to me, it would definitely break compatibility with every other cash MOD.

The best thing everyone can hope for is a converter.

Since UPM integrates with mods like the Arcade Mod and the phpBB Gallery Mod (among others) a converter wouldn't be the solution.

I read through the topic, but I didn't see any responses to this.

Is this the kind of "shop" that will able to send "gifts" to other users, change username/usertitle and font of both, lottery, etc?

I know it's a big project, but I just wanted to know if it's that kind of shop. Adrians's shop mod is good, but he doesn't have alot of time to fix/update it.

Ah yes, I forgot about a transfer feature. It will have the ability to transfer items or money to another user, and you, as the admin, can specify rates if you wish. It should also have the ability to give a short message to send to the user during the transfer.

Regarding the changing usernames/user titles, Yes! I am compiling a list of 'functions' that items can be assigned to when used, and an API for people to add their own.

Now is the time for feature request, in the next week, the guy I am building this with and I will be getting a list together, a week after that is up, the feature list for the first beta will remain in a fairly locked state. We need an achievable goal, which is just building the base no, and we can always accept more feature requests after we get the first beta out.
