Tickets & Shop

Players earn tickets by beating towers and spend them in the ticket shop on Tools, Trails and Auras. Both are set up under Config > Economy.

Turning It Off

Field	Default	Turns off
enabled.tickets	true	Tickets, the counter, and the shop with them.
enabled.shop	true	Just the shop. Tickets are still earned.

Turning something off removes its menu and stops the server from accepting it. Nothing saved is lost; turning it back on restores everything.

Earning Tickets

tickets = {
	cooldownDays = 7,
	rewards = { Easy = 5, Hard = 10, Insane = 250 },
	perTower = {
		ToH = { multiplier = 2 },
		ToE = { multiplier = 1.5, allowRebeats = true },
	},
},

Field	Default	Purpose
cooldownDays	7	Days before the same tower pays the same player again. 0 for no cooldown.
rewards	—	Tickets per difficulty name. 0, or leaving one out, pays nothing.
perTower[x].multiplier	1	Scales one tower's reward.
perTower[x].allowRebeats	false	That tower pays on every win, ignoring the cooldown.

A tower can carry these itself, as the TicketMultiplier and AllowRebeats attributes, which win over perTower.

The shipped rewards:

Easy	Medium	Hard	Difficult	Challenging	Intense	Remorseless	Insane	Extreme	Terrifying	Catastrophic
5	5	10	10	20	50	150	250	550	1125	2250

Horrific, Unreal and Nil pay 0.

When a win pays

A win pays when it is in Normal mode, on the tower's main winpad, with no boost item used, and the tower is not on cooldown. Practice, All Jumps and tower rush wins don't pay.

How much it pays

rewards[difficulty]
  x  tower type's ticketMultiplier      Citadel x2, Steeple x0.5
  x  the tower's own multiplier
  =  rounded down
  x  the player's game pass multiplier
  =  rounded down again

The tower type is easy to forget: an Insane Citadel pays 500, not 250.

Every ticket earned and spent shows up in the Creator Dashboard's economy analytics, tagged with the Area it happened in. Admin grants aren't counted.

Add An Item

Each shop item is one entry under shop.items, keyed by an ID that is saved when someone buys it, so never rename it after release:

GravityCoil = {
	name = "Gravity Coil",
	description = "A permanent movement tool.",
	price = 75,
	category = "Items",
	rarity = "Rare",
	template = "Gravity Coil",
},

Field	Purpose
name	What players see.
description	The text in InfoModal.
price	Whole-number ticket cost.
category	Items, Trails or Auras.
rarity	Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary or Mythic. Picks its colour from rarityColors.
icon	A Roblox image. An Items entry shows its Tool's own icon, so it only needs one if the Tool has none. Trails and Auras need one.
template	For Items: the Tool's name in ServerStorage > TicketShopItems > Tools. Defaults to name.
featuredOnly	For Items: listed only on the Featured page, never discounted.

What a purchase gives:

• Items: the Tool, permanently.
• Trails / Auras: unlocks the cosmetic with the same ID under Economy > cosmetics. It is equipped from the Cosmetics menu.

A purchase is charged once, however many times it is clicked, and an owned item can't be bought again.

Featured Rotation

featured = {
	refreshMinutes = 60,
	refreshWarning = 30,
	itemCount = 4,
	discountPercent = 25,
	categories = { "Trails", "Auras", "Items" },
},

Every server shows the same featured items and changes them at the same time. Featured items are discountPercent off (0 for none, at most 90, never below 1 ticket). Players are warned refreshWarning seconds before the change (0 for no warning); the words are in Config > Messages.shopRotation.

Troubleshooting

Problem	Fix
An item is missing	Check its category is spelled exactly.
A Tool purchase fails	Match template to a Tool in ServerStorage > TicketShopItems > Tools.
A cosmetic purchase fails	Give the shop item and the cosmetic the same ID.
The last item in a list is cut off	Give the list a UIListLayout or UIGridLayout and set its AutomaticCanvasSize.
