Economy Presets

MurFFy includes three built-in presets for blank servers:
  • Casual
  • Balanced
  • Progression
Each preset gives you a working starter economy with currency, rewards, starter items, jobs, and a shop.

Quick Comparison

Casual

Choose Casual if you want members to understand and enjoy the system quickly. Use it when:
  • the economy is a side feature, not the main point of the server
  • your audience is broad
  • you want fast feedback and easy wins
Strengths:
  • generous early rewards
  • low friction onboarding
  • members reach their first goals quickly
Watch out for:
  • fast balance growth
  • shop prices becoming too easy to trivialize
  • members finishing the starter loop too quickly

Balanced

Choose Balanced if you want the safest default for most servers. Use it when:
  • you are unsure which preset to choose
  • your community wants progression but not a grind wall
  • you want easier long-term tuning
Strengths:
  • moderate earning rates
  • clearer price-to-reward relationships
  • less risk of instant inflation
This is the recommended default for most servers.

Progression

Choose Progression if you want stronger milestones and slower advancement. Use it when:
  • your members enjoy long-term goals
  • the economy is an important part of the server experience
  • you want items and jobs to feel earned
Strengths:
  • stronger sense of growth
  • better support for aspirational pricing
  • clearer progression identity
Watch out for:
  • a grindy first impression
  • weak short-term motivation if early rewards are too small
  • needing better player communication

What Presets Do Not Replace

Presets give you a solid starting point, but you should still review:
  • whether your shop removes enough currency
  • whether your rewards fit your community size
  • whether gambling or events belong in your server at all
  • whether docs and player explanations match your chosen setup

When To Skip a Preset

You can skip presets if:
  • you already have a strong design in mind
  • your economy is not blank
  • you need very custom rules from day one
In that case, use the manual dashboard flow instead. After choosing a preset, open the Balancing guide before changing payouts or prices.
