Currencies

Overview

A Currency is a catalog item dedicated to the Wallet Management.

This type of item has 3 special fields:

• Initial allocation: the balance the player has when his/her profile is created.
• The maximum balance a player can have. 0 means no limit.
• The type of the currency.

Currency Type

A Currency can be soft, or hard.

Also called "regular currency" or "free currency", a soft currency is a resource designed to be adequately accessible through normal gameplay, without having to make micro-transactions.

A hard currency is a resource that is exclusively, or near exclusively acquired by paying for it (real-money transactions). Also called "premium currency", it is much harder to acquire without making purchases, and thus is considered to be premium game content.

Editor Overview

As usual, you can find:

• (1) the list of objects (here currencies) on the left side.
• (2) the category widget
• (3) the details section

In addition you'll find the three special fields (initial allocation, maximum allocation, and currency type) visible just below the identifier and display name fields (4).
