Currency

many worlds still retain coins or other forms of physical money
from the time before the pact, and they may
occasionally use them for local trade. However,
the standard unit of currency in the pact
worlds (and the starfinder rpg rules) is
the credit. All interplanetary business is
conducted in standardized credits, thanks
to their backing and regulation through the
pact worlds government and the church of
abadar. Converting a world’s economy to
the credit standard is a requirement of joining
the pact worlds, and even worlds far outside
the pact’s official jurisdiction often prefer to
use them, since they are so universally carried
and understood

While it's true that credits and UPB's are effectively interchangeable, it would be nice to have the option to differentiate between them, as there are differences in where and how you can use each one. Mainly in the interest of PC's keeping their records straight. While it's mildly inconvenient, I have been just manually editing the prices of items to specify the currency type. It works fine like that for now, but I also haven't had the need to create any LARGE shops yet, so I can see it becoming an issue for huge inventories.

I'd also be on board with the idea of making shops "credits only" and working out any other issues in-game.

Yeah, its just different behavior than any other ruleset I've looked at.

Yeah. if there are differences in how the currencies are tracked and used, then it would require manually editing the prices to indicate which currency it uses.

You arrange your Total credits into "The Split Column" (how you want your credits broken up)
You do all transactions from the Split column.
So your always working in credits. (In the game your handing over Poopers)

The Exchange rate Column is added to the Currencies in Setup or leave that, and players can just be shared a Sheet with the rates and they have to do the work themselves. (lazy bastards!)

EDIT: JUST noticed I messed up one of the exchange rate amounts But you get the Idea (maybe this is why you dont let players work it out for themselves...)

I am pushing v1.4 update shortly. This update fixes some underlying code and adds the ability for GM's to shop. When the GM clicks on the Buy button, it will now create a parcel with all of the items in the cart and the price in the coins list. This parcel can be dragged to players or the party sheet.

That sounds FANTASTIC!

Thanks for this mod. I bought it before I ever found this thread. Keep up the great work!

v1.5 uploaded. Added an ID All button to the top of shops visible to GM only. Clicking it will mark all items in the shop as identified.
