CommunityMarket/ServerShop

ServerShop

A professional server-run global market plugin for Paper/Purpur 1.21.1 servers. This plugin provides a GUI-driven shop where players can buy and sell all game items at configurable prices.

Overview

ServerShop is designed to work alongside the CommunityMarket player-to-player marketplace. It features a large spread between buy and sell prices, ensuring that player-to-player trading via CommunityMarket remains the preferred option for best deals.

How the Spread Works

• Buy Price: What the server charges when selling to players (higher)
• Sell Price: What the server pays when buying from players (lower)
• Default Spread: 75% (sellMultiplier = 0.25)

For example, a Diamond with a buy price of $100:

• Server sells to player: $100
• Server buys from player: $25 (100 × 0.25)
• Players trading via CommunityMarket might sell for $60-80, making it better for both buyer and seller

Features

• GUI-Only Interface: All interactions through intuitive inventory GUIs
• Category System: Items organized into 10 categories (Blocks, Ores, Farming, Food, Mob Drops, Redstone, Decoration, Tools, Combat, Brewing, Misc)
• Search: Find items by name via chat input
• Pagination: Browse large categories with page navigation
• Quantity Selection: Adjust amounts with -32/-16/-8/-1/+1/+8/+16/+32 and MIN/MAX buttons
• Sell Hand / Sell Inventory: Quick-sell shortcuts from the main menu
• Vault Economy: Full integration with any Vault-compatible economy plugin
• Multi-Language: English (en_US) and Portuguese (pt_PT) included
• Transaction Logging: SQLite database for tracking all transactions
• Anti-Exploit: Comprehensive protection against item duplication and GUI exploits
• Configurable Pricing: Per-category multipliers, per-item overrides, buy/sell toggles

• Paper or Purpur 1.21.1+
• Java 21
• Vault + an economy provider (e.g., EssentialsX, CMI)
