Store packages

  • Navigate to Admin > Store packages, select a server and click on the + icon in the top left of the store package manager.
  • Input fields will appear. Populate the fields with the details of the package.
    • Cost for the package in credits (100 credits = 1 unit of the selected currency).
    • On the Actions section you can configure the actions that will be run when the package is applied, for instance assigning a role and executing custom Lua.

TIP

To make packages redeemable on multiple servers, assign the same token for the servers in the integration plugin/addon configuration (while retaining unique tokens in Admin > Servers).

Example configuration

  • A group with the name of the role's in-game equivalent will be assigned to the user in-game.

Role sync does not need to be enabled for package roles to be granted or revoked.
