Village Cash Display
Quickstart
- Load into a world and look at the top-right corner of your screen — your cash balance ($0 to start) is displayed there in green.
- Explore dungeons, villages, or any vanilla loot chests. You'll find Cash Roll items inside.
- Pick up a Cash Roll — it instantly vanishes from your inventory and converts to $25 per roll added to your balance. An action-bar message confirms the pickup.
- Walk up to any Villager and right-click (main hand) to see their current offer. If you have enough money, the deal completes automatically and the item lands in your inventory.
- If you're an operator and want to test things quickly, run
/dev give <amount> to add money directly to your balance.
Overview
Village Cash Display adds a lightweight cash economy to Minecraft. Players loot Cash Rolls from chests, bank them automatically on pickup, and spend their balance at Villagers for rotating goods. Your balance persists between sessions and is shown at all times via a GTA-style HUD overlay.
What It Adds
| Addition | Description |
|---|

How To Use
Collecting Cash
Cash Rolls spawn inside loot chests throughout the world. Simply pick them up — you don't need to use or place them. The moment they enter your inventory they are consumed and their value is added to your balance. A message appears on your action bar showing how much was added and your new total.
- Each Cash Roll is worth $25.
- You can pick up stacks; the full stack value converts at once.
- The balance cap is $999,999,999.
Buying from Villagers
Right-click any Villager with an empty main hand (or any item — the mod intercepts the interaction before the normal trade UI). The Villager will present a single rotating offer:
- If you can afford it, the transaction completes instantly: money is deducted and the item is placed in your inventory (or dropped at your feet if your inventory is full). A confirmation appears in your action bar.
- If you cannot afford it, the Villager plays a "no" sound and your action bar shows the price, what's being offered, and exactly how much more money you need.
Offers rotate — each Villager may present a different deal depending on their state, so it pays to shop around.
Cash Balance HUD
Your current balance is always visible at the top-right of the screen in bright green with a subtle shadow. It updates in real time whenever you gain or spend money. The HUD hides automatically when the HUD is toggled off (F1).
Crafting And Obtaining
Cash Rolls cannot be crafted. They are found in loot chests as world-generated loot. You can also find the Cash Roll in the Ingredients section of the Creative inventory for testing purposes.
Server operators can grant money directly with:
/dev give <amount>
<amount> must be between 0 and 999,999,999.- The command adds the specified amount to the executing player's balance and confirms the new total in chat.
Abilities And Mechanics
- Auto-banking: Cash Rolls convert to money the moment they tick inside your inventory — no right-click or crafting needed.
- Persistent storage: Balances are stored in world save data, tied to each player's unique ID. They survive server restarts, world reloads, and player disconnects.
- Balance sync: Your balance is synced to your client whenever you join the server or your balance changes, keeping the HUD accurate.
- Balance bounds: Your balance can never drop below $0 or exceed $999,999,999.
Progression And Strategy
- Early game: Prioritize any chest loot you find. Even a few Cash Rolls give you $25–$75 to start shopping with Villagers.
- Mid game: Build up a looting routine — raid structures, collect Cash Rolls, then visit a village to spend on useful items from Villager offers.
- Spending smart: Villager offers rotate, so if a deal isn't appealing, try a different Villager. You can't hold onto rolls without spending since they convert immediately.
- Operator tip: Use
/dev give to seed starting balances for players on your server or to test economy balance during setup.
