RoostCoin & Dynamic Economy
How RoostCoin, supply, demand, seasons, weather, events, professions, and price protection shape the Ranch economy.
RoostCoin & Dynamic Economy
RoostCoin (RC) is the primary Ranch currency.
Commodity prices are dynamic. Effective value can be influenced by:
Base Value × Supply × Demand × Season × Weather × Events × Profession
Supply
Selling huge quantities of one commodity can depress its value. Supply pressure recovers gradually.
Demand
Demand events, seasonal conditions, festivals, and scarcity can increase commodity values.
Price Protection
Price floors and ceilings allow meaningful movement without commodities becoming effectively worthless or absurdly expensive.
NPC Vendor Spread
NPC vendors provide reliable buying and selling, but buy/sell spreads are designed to prevent simple infinite-profit flipping.
Economic Sinks
RC is spent on supplies, livestock, services, booth rent, development, and long-term Ranch goals.
Beta: prices, rewards, costs, production rates, and demand strength may change as live player data is collected.
