Currency Customization

[Captain_Party]

Is there going to be any way to change the currency when 0.24? I saw the devs said modding and customization will play a big part in 0.24, so I was wondering if we could change currency as well.

I don't see why it wouldn't be possible with a mod. Change every instance of "funds" to "kerbucks" or something in config files

I must be one of the few people who like "Funds".

I always thought of Kredits. But the devs didnt want another K word for some strange reason. A facebook poll had Manleys (sp) as the top choice. Snacks was always my backup currency. Lets face it, getting paid in Snacks would be awesome.

awww.....nobody ever pays me in snacks....

The testers called them Roots because of the symbol. But that has issues with Australian slang. Basically it means S3X though im not sure being paid that way would be a bad thing either. It was actually funny because the ROOTS clothing company was the Canadian Olympic teams sponsor at Sydney. So all our athletes were running about with naughty words on their clothing. Back to the matter at hand, Funds is... ok if a bit generic sounding. Would have liked a survey like they did with the update name.

maybe they can still do that? rowsdower could post a link to a poll here and on le reddit and it could be a minor, community based change with .25 or .24.5 or whatever is next? the issue then becomes how to select the poll options. or they can do it the way they want.

[JimmyAgent007]

well there can be the top options, but also a write in slot, First Contract wasnt an option to choose IIRC but there was a write in slot. Did they include a currency poll with that?

No, I'd just like to change it to something like pounds or dollars...

There is more than one Manley. My real name is Sanford M. Manley, but as far as I can tell, I am not related to Scott Manley and yes, I asked.
