Gold displaying as Dollars and Cents?

[JtheDuelist]

Is there a way to make gold display in the gold window, in shops, and battle reward as something like $10.50 instead of 1050G?

Plugin in the attachment is based on this post- https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?threads/decimal-currency.98209/#post-888095
Also a small add-on at the end of the script that affect Window_ShopNumber as well by sutorumie.

Note: you have to change the currency manually from the database under System.

If someone wants to modify the code, here's a sample. It doesn't cover battle reward yet.

(function() {

Game_Party.prototype.gainGold = function(amount) {
this._gold = this._gold + amount //parseFloat(Math.round(amount * 100) / 100).toFixed(2);
};

Game_Party.prototype.gold = function() {
return parseFloat(Math.round(this._gold * 100) / 100).toFixed(2);
};

Window_Gold.prototype.refresh = function() {
var x = this.textPadding();
var width = this.contents.width - this.textPadding() * 2;
this.contents.clear();
this.drawCurrencyValue(this.currencyUnit(), this.value(), x, 0, width);
};

Scene_Shop.prototype.buyingPrice = function() {
if (this._item.meta.price) {
return this._item.meta.price;
} else {
return this._buyWindow.price(this._item);
}

};

Scene_Shop.prototype.money = function() {
return Number(this._goldWindow.value());
};

Scene_Shop.prototype.sellingPrice = function() {
if (this._item.meta.price) {
return this._item.meta.price;
} else {
return this._buyWindow.price(this._item);
}
};

Window_ShopBuy.prototype.price = function(item) {
if (item.meta.price) {
return item.meta.price;
} else {
return this._price[this._data.indexOf(item)] || 0;
}

};

Window_ShopBuy.prototype.isEnabled = function(item) {
return (item && this.price(item) <= this._money &&
!$gameParty.hasMaxItems(item));
};

})();

Window_ShopNumber.prototype.drawTotalPrice = function() {
var total = parseFloat(((this._price * 100) * this._number) / 100).toFixed(2);
var width = this.contentsWidth() - this.textPadding();
this.drawCurrencyValue(this._currencyUnit, total, 0, this.priceY(), width);
};

Hmm, that works, but outside of shops, it is displaying as 0.00$ instead of $0.00, @tale

I've moved this thread to Plugin Requests. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.

Might need an additional mini-plugin to get it working outside of Shops.

Hi, I wrote you a new plugin as I didn't really like the one you were offered.
If you encounter any problems with it feel free to message me
