💰Modify the starting money on my Nova-Life server

Step-by-step guide to modify the starting money on your Nova-Life server (startMoney, startBank, roleplay.json).

The starting money is set in roleplay.json with:

• startMoney : money on hand at creation

• startBank : money in bank at creation

Objective

Change the starting money of new characters on Nova Life by editing startMoney and startBank.

Step-by-step guide

1

Go to Server Settings

On the dashboard, open the Settings.

2

Edit the file roleplay.json

Modify the settings startMoney and startBank.

Do not add spaces in numbers: write 2000 (not 2 000).

Save the new configuration.

3

Restart the server

Restart the server to apply the configuration.

Common issues

• The server no longer starts : roleplay.json is probably invalid. Restore a backup, then try again.

• The value does not change in-game : this mainly concerns new characters. Test by creating a character.

• I can't find startMoney : make sure you are editing NovaLifeServer/Config/roleplay.json (not another file).

FAQ

Does this change existing players' money?

No. It changes the starting money at creation of the character.

Can I set very high amounts?

Yes, but avoid absurd amounts. It can unbalance the server's economy.
