DOCTRINE
§ I — Coin System
HOW COINS WORK

Base Earnings

  • Earn coins for every hour of playtime
  • Base rate: 10 coins/hour
  • Calculated weekly and added to your wallet
  • Must be actively playing (not AFK)

Streak Bonuses

  • Login daily to build your streak
  • Streak bonus: up to 25% extra coins
  • Longer streaks = higher bonuses
  • Miss a day? Your streak resets

Soft Cap System

To maintain economic balance, there is a soft cap on weekly earnings:

How It Works

  • Weekly soft cap: 40 hours
  • Earnings beyond the cap are reduced
  • Reduction rate: 50%
  • Encourages balanced playtime

Example

  • 40 hours: Full rate (400 coins)
  • 50 hours: 400 + (10 × 5) = 450 coins
  • Extra 10 hours at 50% rate

Tax System

Weekly taxes help control inflation and maintain economic balance:

Balance Range Tax Rate Purpose
0 – 1,000 coins 0% Protect new players
1,001 – 5,000 coins 2% Light taxation
5,001 – 15,000 coins 5% Standard rate
15,001+ coins 8% Wealth redistribution
§ II — Bounty System
HOW BOUNTIES WORK

Placing Bounties

  • Get killed? Place a revenge bounty!
  • Minimum bounty: 50 coins
  • Maximum bounty: 50,000 coins
  • 20% of your payment is burned (removed from economy)
  • 80% goes to the reward pool

Claiming Bounties

  • Kill a player with an active bounty
  • Bounty is automatically verified
  • Reward is added to your wallet
  • Multiple bounties = bigger rewards!

Bounty Tracking & Notifications

  • There will be periodic notifications about bounty targets' relative locations.
  • Notifications are delayed to prevent real-time tracking and maintain fairness.
  • The longer a bounty is active, the more frequent and less delayed the location updates become.
  • Early notifications are rare and vague; after several days, updates become more detailed and frequent.
  • This system encourages active hunting while giving targets a chance to evade.

Escalation System

Multiple bounties on the same target increase the cost:

  • Each active bounty increases cost by 10%
  • Maximum multiplier: 3×
  • Applies to 7-day window
  • Prevents spam bounties
  • 1st bounty: 1000 coins → 1000 cost
  • 2nd bounty: 1000 coins → 1100 cost
  • 3rd bounty: 1000 coins → 1200 cost

Anonymous Bounties

  • Hide your identity
  • Extra 15% fee
  • Target won't know who placed it

Bounty Expiration

  • Bounties expire after 7 days
  • Unclaimed rewards are lost
  • Keeps the system active

Ransom System

  • Pay to remove your bounties
  • Cost: 120% of reward pool
  • Immediate bounty removal
  • Once every 72 hours per server
  • Revenge bounties can't be ransomed

§ V — FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How often are coins calculated?

Coins are calculated weekly, typically on Sunday nights. Your playtime from the previous week is converted to coins based on your streak bonuses and soft cap status. The coins are then added to your wallet automatically.

Can I place bounties on anyone?

Currently, you can only place revenge bounties on players who killed you. You cannot place bounties on players who have opted out of the economy system. The system automatically prevents targeting opted-out players.

What happens if I kill someone with multiple bounties?

You receive the combined reward from all active bounties on that player! If someone has 3 bounties worth 500, 750, and 1000 coins respectively, you'll receive 2,250 coins total. This makes high-bounty targets very valuable.

Can I opt back in immediately after opting out?

No, there's a 21-day cooldown period after opting out. This prevents players from abusing the opt-out system to avoid bounties temporarily. During this time, you cannot earn coins or participate in the bounty system.

How does the ransom system work?

If you have bounties on you, you can pay a ransom to remove them all immediately. The ransom cost is 120% of the total reward pool of all your active bounties. You can do this once every 72 hours on each server. Revenge bounties can't be ransomed: they stay until they're claimed or expire. This gives you an expensive but immediate way to clear your bounties without waiting for them to expire.
