Economy & Billing
Economy & Billing
All economy settings live in shared/economy.lua. This drives licences, tax,
the billing cycle, utilities, services, and the layout marketplace.
Currency & locale
Config.Locale = 'en'
Config.Currency = '$'Company licensing (Block mode)
Config.LicenceFee = 50000 -- business licence application fee
Config.LicenceDurationDays = 30 -- licence validity in days
Config.CompanyRegistrationOpen = true -- allow civilians to apply
Config.MaxCompaniesPerPlayer = 1 -- pending or approved
Config.CompanyApprovalJobs = { doj = 0 } -- jobs that approve applicationsTax & land revenue
Config.PlatformTaxRate = 0.05 -- state cut on rent payments (0..1)
Config.StateSaleRevenue = 'burn' -- 'burn' or 'treasury' (state land-sale money)
Config.TreasuryAccount = 'government' -- society account when StateSaleRevenue = 'treasury'
Config.AuctionMinIncrement = 0.05 -- minimum bid increment fraction
Config.SaleEscrowTimeout = 300 -- escrow timeout (seconds)Homes held on a Tebex deed skip the PlatformTaxRate cut on rent while
Config.Tebex.ExemptPlatformTax = true, and can pay reduced or no maintenance
(Config.Tebex.UpkeepPercent, or per product). See
Tebex Integration.
Billing cycle, eviction & condition
The billing loop sweeps periodically and charges rent, maintenance, utilities, and services. Missed payments decay condition, then trigger eviction (tenants) or repossession (owners).
Config.BillingCycleSeconds = 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 -- 1 week
Config.BillingCheckInterval = 60 -- sweep interval (seconds)
Config.EvictionAfter = 3 -- missed rent cycles → auto-evict
Config.RepossessAfter = 3 -- missed maintenance cycles → repossess
Config.ConditionDecayPerCycle = 2 -- % condition lost per paid cycle
Config.ConditionDecayUnpaid = 8 -- % condition lost per unpaid cycle
Config.ConditionRentCap = 40 -- below this %, rent ceiling halves
Config.RepairCostPerPct = 150 -- repair cost per 1% condition
Config.DepositCycles = 2 -- default deposit = rent × thisSee Utilities & Billing and Renting & Leases for how these play out.
Electricity
Config.Electricity = {
Enabled = true,
BaseFee = 15, -- base charge per cycle
RatePerActiveLight = 5, -- per active light per cycle
BlackoutNoLights = true, -- black out interior if 0 lights active
BlackoutTimecycle = "custom_car_interior",
DeviceDraw = { -- security devices also draw power
camera = 8, -- per camera
motion = 4, -- per motion sensor
alarmPerTier = 6, -- per alarm tier
},
}Set any DeviceDraw value to 0 (or delete the table) to stop security devices
from adding to the electricity bill.
Water
Config.Water = { Enabled = true, BaseFee = 10 }Services
Optional recurring services shown in the property's Utilities panel. Monitored
alarm tiers auto-subscribe the security service.
Config.Services = {
{ key = 'cleaning', label = 'Cleaning Service', fee = 50, icon = 'fa-solid fa-broom',
desc = 'Weekly interior clean-up' },
{ key = 'security', label = 'Security Monitoring', fee = 40, icon = 'fa-solid fa-shield-halved',
desc = 'Monitored alarm response' },
{ key = 'internet', label = 'Internet', fee = 25, icon = 'fa-solid fa-wifi',
desc = 'High-speed connection' },
{ key = 'insurance', label = 'Home Insurance', fee = 35, icon = 'fa-solid fa-house-circle-check',
desc = 'Covers break-in losses' },
}Layout marketplace
Config.LayoutMarket = {
Enabled = true,
CommissionRate = 0.10, -- platform commission (0..1)
MinPrice = 100,
MaxPrice = 5000000,
MaxActivePerSeller = 10,
HideAfterReports = 5, -- auto-hide after N reports (0 = disable)
