Exchange
The exchange is the player-or-server-owned tier above zones. A player can own an entire zone, set their own listing fee, and earn commission on every sale that happens in their zone.
Settings
shared/config.lua
Config.Exchange = {
ZonePurchasePrice = 250000, -- one-time price to own an entire zone
DefaultListingFeePerWeek = 500, -- per-listing weekly fee (sellers pay zone owner)
DefaultCommissionPercent = 5, -- cut taken from each sale
MaxListingsPerZone = 50,
}| Field | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
ZonePurchasePrice | 250000 | One-time bank cost to claim a whole zone |
DefaultListingFeePerWeek | 500 | What each seller pays the zone owner per active listing per week |
DefaultCommissionPercent | 5 | Cut of each completed sale paid to the zone owner |
MaxListingsPerZone | 50 | Hard cap on simultaneous active listings per zone |
How money flows
When player B buys a vehicle from player A in a zone owned by player Z for $100,000:
B pays → 100,000
Z (zone owner) ← 5,000 (5% commission)
A (seller) ← 95,000
If a zone has no owner, the seller gets the full price.
Player-set overrides
Once a player owns a zone, they can override the defaults from the Exchange owner panel in the tablet UI:
- Listing fee per week
- Max listings
- Commission %
These overrides are persisted in koja_carmarket_exchange.
Listing fee flow
Same cadence as parking: every minute the server checks listing_fee_paid_until < NOW():
- Fee due → remove from seller's bank → credit to zone owner (minus commission %).
- Failure → listing deleted from the market.
Zone owners listing their own vehicles skip the fee.
