Eo buying gold in game

[Officer Johnson]

Two questions

1\. Is it okay to have in game purchases (buying gold with real money)

2\. If so how would you approach making it automatic so once it goes through they auto get it

i would imagine it would be possible but you may have to make a seperate script… for it i think,.

It's most likely possible but you'd have to code something in first. As for making it automatic I have no idea but I am also interested in this because I plan on offering membership in my game. I'm assuming you'd have to find some way to hook the server up with Paypal so every time a payment goes through a command is send to the server to give the player gold which is pretty similar to the Minecraft plugin Buycraft.

pretty smart i might do a item mall here.. lol

The best way to do it would be via your game website.. removes most of the hassle. Most Forum softwares have plugins will allow you to sell items on your website. IPB has Ip.Nexus as an example. 

When items are bought from the store then it'll be logged in the Forum DB. Just cross check from the server and hand out items.

And yes, you are allowed to have in-game purchases as they aren't buying anything but a few bytes of data.
