SocialCredit: BlackMarket v1.2.4 — “State Resource Department Reform Act”
“Due to previous administrative… misunderstandings… the State Resource Department has been successfully rebuilt from the ground up.”

️ Major Reform: Resource Department Reconstructed
After a brief period of operational confusion (classified), the State Resource Department has been:

• Completely re-engineered
• Detached from unofficial civilian trading mechanisms
• Placed firmly under state control where it always belonged

Citizens may now interact with official State Terminals (lecterns) to conduct resource transactions in a safe, monitored environment.

Chest-based capitalism has been deemed “inefficient.”

Expanded State Trade Catalogue
The Ministry has significantly increased the number of state-recognised commodities.

• Most common resources are now available by default
• Reduced need for administrative micromanagement
• Citizens are encouraged to contribute to the economy (voluntarily)

If it exists, the State is now interested in it.

Unauthorised Terminal Tampering Now Prohibited

• Registered State Terminals are now protected from civilian interference
• Attempting to destroy state infrastructure without authorisation is strongly discouraged
• Authorised personnel may still relocate terminals as required

“It wasn’t there when I got here” is no longer an acceptable explanation.

Structural Improvements

• State Resource Department is now fully independent from player shop systems
• Eliminates previous overlap, confusion, and… creative interpretations of commerce
• Future updates will build on this system safely without impacting other features

The State has achieved clarity. You are encouraged to do the same.

️ Administrative Notes

• Existing player shops remain unchanged
• State Terminals must be explicitly registered
• All prior “resource department via sign” methods have been retired

Legacy systems have been archived for your safety.

Closing Statement
The Ministry is pleased to confirm:

The economy is now stable.
The system is now correct.
Everything is under control.

Removed references to old code

Important bug fix to messaging. Please update and delete your messages.yml file

SocialCredit: BlackMarket v1.2.1
“The State has noticed your behaviour.”

Security Update (Unapproved Access Resolved)
Citizens were previously discovered… handling goods that did not belong to them.

This has now been corrected.

• Black Market shop chests are now properly secured
  
  
• Unauthorized players can no longer:
  
  • Open shop storage
    
    
  • Remove stock
    
    
  • “Just have a quick look”
    
• All interactions are now… appropriately restricted
  

The State appreciates your cooperation.

System Alignment
The Black Market has been fully brought in line with the centralised State Surveillance System.

• Heat is now fully governed by the main SocialCredit system
  
  
• Suspicion, enforcement, and consequences are now unified
  
  
• No more fragmented behaviour tracking
  

Everything you do is now… consistently monitored

Behavioural Monitoring Enhancements
Your activities in the Black Market are no longer isolated.

• Suspicious trading contributes to State awareness
  
  
• Illegal activity is now part of a broader system of observation and consequence
  
  
• The line between “private trade” and “public knowledge” is… thinner than before
  

Expanded State Resource System
The State has expanded its interest in your possessions.

• A significantly larger default list of items can now be sold to the State
  
  
• Operators still retain full control via config
  
  
• Players now have more opportunities to… contribute to society
  

Voluntarily, of course.

Messaging Improvements
Communication from the State has been refined:

• Cleaner, more immersive broadcasts
  
  
• Less… corrupted messaging
  
  
• More… intentional tone
  

⚖️ Final Note
The Black Market still exists.

But it is no longer invisible.

Trade wisely.
Or don’t.
We’ll be watching either way.

Made a mistake and updated the wrong plugin

Scoreboard Fix and Heat Decay

SocialCredit BlackMarket v1.2
“State oversight has increased. This is purely coincidental.”

The underground economy has evolved. Citizens are reminded that unauthorised trade is both dangerous and economically inefficient for the State.

New Systems
Contraband Tagging
Illegal goods now carry hidden state markers. If you’re caught holding them… well… that’s on you.

Random Inspections
State Inspection Units now conduct random sweeps across the server.
Contraband may be confiscated and your Heat will increase.

Heat-Based Pricing
Known offenders pay higher prices on the black market.
Turns out being a wanted criminal is bad for negotiating leverage.

Propaganda Broadcasts
The State now periodically reminds citizens that illegal trading is very illegal.

Contraband Detection
Illegal items now use hidden metadata so they can be identified during inspections without obvious item changes.

Configuration
Server operators now have new YAML controls for:

• inspection frequency and penalties
  
  
• propaganda broadcast intervals
  
  
• heat-based pricing multipliers
  
  
• confiscation behaviour
  
  
• default state resource values
  

All gameplay systems remain fully configurable.

Architecture
This update aligns BlackMarket with SocialCredit Core v1.6.

• Heat is now fully owned by the core plugin
  
  
• BlackMarket interacts through the SocialCredit API
  
  
• No duplicate state systems remain
  

Developer Notes
The plugin now uses:

• PersistentDataContainer for contraband tagging
  
  
• core SocialCreditAPI heat access
  
  
• modular managers for inspections and broadcasts
  

This ensures better compatibility with future SocialCredit ecosystem addons.

Reminder from the Ministry
Citizens engaging in unauthorised trade should report themselves immediately for administrative processing.

Failure to comply will result in additional enthusiasm from the inspection department.

Please update both main and addons
