With the current auction system in place, everything is good, except for the fact that we can't auction exp. Therefore, I'm suggesting a more easy way to sell EXP and auction it - Make EXP books. For those wondering how it would work, there'd be a command, such as /expstore (amount) that turns the requested amount of EXP into a book, which you can get back as EXP by right clicking the book. I've seen things like this on other servers, so I'm definitely sure it's possible. Tagging @JamieSinn as he could make something like this for us.
+1 Great idea, but i think you can only store it in certain amounts. Like you cant store 12363 exp, but in 5k increments or something
Theoretically you could handle it by item lore - that way you could add "12345 XP" as item lore and the plugin would see it as 12345 xp points when redeemed. The alternative is to use different item IDs/meta-IDs to make items for 10, 100, 1000 xp and so on.
Theoretically indeed, but it's not practical. It wouldn't stack and thus would be a terrible storage mechanism. 10 100 and 1000 xp is what I did with my code: (a bit messy, it's 1.5 years old code, after all.)
True. .-. Then again, you could always redeem your items and get one single larger one instead of multiple stacks of different items.
However, you only need one single slot instead of multiple slots. (And you would still need to redeem set-amount-items once the stack is full.)
