Calculation Placeholders

Use curly brackets { } to perform calculations within text. Include placeholders, plain numbers, or PlaceholderAPI placeholders inside the brackets for calculation.
Calculations for ‘Reward’ or ‘Price’ are not permitted.
To adjust rewards or prices based on player actions, utilize multipliers in the Configuration settings /genesis/config.yml file

Calculation Examples

This simple calculation will instantly be transformed into 10.

{10/5+8}

This will display the players balance times 4 and will be updated whenever the shop is refreshed.

{%balance%*4}

Only simple calculations are supported
