Developer Notes

There are two good articles on the WorldForge site about currency and creating new types of coinage. The first of these focuses on implementation of currency within the game, and can be found here. The second article (currently on the OLD WorldForge site, it needs to be moved over! Anyone interested in doing so should get a Zope account and copy and re-format the old page into a new one in the /dev/content/rules/economy/ directory, and then update this section) focuses on creating new types of currency for use in RPGs, and is located here.
