Making Money

← Back to Player Wiki

Scope: This money guide is for Lunaris SMP only.

TL;DR

• Early game: gather and sell simple resources.
• Use /shop and watch prices before mass-selling.
• Use /vote for vote milestones and /playtime for playtime milestones—both can pay out when configured.
• Focus one money method at a time for faster growth.
• Protect your base first so your progress is safe.

Best early-game methods

1. Resource farming: mine/farm reliable materials and sell regularly.
2. Shop loops: buy low-utility materials only when needed, sell high-volume drops.
3. Player trades: sell useful items to players who value time over grinding.

Core commands

• /balance — check current money.
• /shop — open server shop.
• /ah — auction house for player-to-player sales.
• /vote / /playtime — voting and playtime progress (rewards depend on server config).
• /spawn — return quickly when inventory is full.
• /sethome sell — save a home near your main sell route.

For bounties, bank notes, and sell commands, see LunarisEconomy.

Progression tip

Don’t split effort across too many systems at once. Pick one money loop, optimize it, then branch into higher-value methods after you have stable gear and protected land.

Common money mistakes

• Keeping valuable items unsecured before claiming land.
• Selling rare items too early for quick cash.
• Ignoring travel time (inefficient routes kill profit).
