Low Account Balance Warning

Post by Argent »

Since so many seem to be having trouble keeping track of their funds, I think it would be helpful to have some sort of warning system set up to notify players when they've dropped below a certain balance. I'm thinking that if a player drops below whatever the starting balance will be for new accounts, the text for their balance should turn red, and if it gets to be half of that amount there should be a popup notification.

I think that's not a bad idea :) also if i may add to that maybe have a bank account where we could set money aside as a savings and earn interests based of the amounts currently in and games economy. It would be a great asset in teaching kids in handling money :)

Interest will not happen, but a bank account has been suggested before.

We'd have to add in a way to get a loan for interest to make sense. Real farms get loans all the time. Banking simulator 2015 here we come!

I think it would be better with something that lets you see what you have spent money on and where your income comes from.
I have pretty good idea where my money goes but if i get some income I have no idea if it is from a competition I've held or one of the horses have won something.

Yeah I would like to see itemized finances both in and out. I hoard money so it unlikely I'd run out but knowing where the income came in from a comp I hosted or ran in 12-24 hours ago and forgot about (as there is no way to track non-recurring comps) would be nice.
