CURRENCY SYSTEM
Symbolized with © and managed via Discord Bot, "coins" are the in-game currency of Railbirds. Account balances, transfers between players, working, and gambling are all done within Discord. The bot that our server uses is called UnbelievaBoat, and has been customized to fit Railbirds. Bot command usage is restricted to channels within the "THE CITY" header in the server. Please do not chat in any of the currency channels. These channels are:
★ #the-plaza: Used for money transfers between players as well as deposits and deductions by admins. To pay another player, use "!give <@mention> <amount>". You can also check your account balance here with the command "!bal". Also serves as the item shop - click here for more info.
★ #job-bulletin: Once per day, players can use the "!work" command. This will generate a random response from a set of jobs, awarding a small amount of coins to the player. These jobs consist of things like stablehand work, exercising, etc. Nothing else is required when using the command - just use "!work" and the bot will do the rest! Working will net you between ©50 and ©200 each day.
★ #the-casino: The bot has a set of gambling/casino commands that utilize your account balance. Please be aware that these commands are not just free fun - they can and will deduct coins from your account! The games/commands available are:
