GS2-Exchange
This is one of the most widely used microservice functions provided by GS2. It is responsible for converting the resources of any microservice into the resources of a completely different microservice.
There are many game specifications related to resource exchange, and each time this happens, GS2-Exchange comes into play.
Examples of resource exchange
Conversion of enhancement materials
Exchange 10 ★1 enhancement materials managed by GS2-Inventory for 1 ★2 enhancement material also managed by GS2-Inventory.
You can get an item once every 6 hours.
Exchange 1 Stamina, which is restored once every 6 hours, managed by GS2-Stamina, for an item managed by GS2-Inventory.
Sell item
Exchange items managed by GS2-Inventory for in-game currency also managed by GS2-Inventory.
Types of exchange
GS2-Exchange offers two types of exchanges: direct exchanges, in which items are exchanged immediately at the exchange rate specified in the master data, and Asynchronous exchange, where the result of the exchange can be obtained after a certain amount of time has elapsed in real time after the exchange is performed. A cost-informed exchange, in which the cost increases with each purchase.
When using asynchronous exchange, the price is consumed at the time the exchange is executed, and an await object is created instead of obtaining a reward. When the exchange waiting time defined in the master data elapses from the creation time of the Await object, the reward is received.
Example of Asynchronous Exchange
Strengthening Bases
After consuming resources to build a base in a city-building game After 8 hours, the base’s experience is actually added to the base.
Expedition
After 3 hours of organizing a party and going on an adventure, the party will receive a reward as a result of the adventure.
Skipping asynchronous exchanges
It is possible to skip waiting for asynchronous exchanges by paying additional compensation. In general, when such a specification is included, it is often implemented as a monetization feature, but By consuming in-game currency managed by GS2-Money, which is purchased with cash, it is possible to implement a specification that can reduce the latency.
Example of cost-increasing exchange
Reinforcement (Inflation Game)
Each time an item is enhanced, the amount of gold required to enhance it increases
Stamina recovery cost increases
Each time stamina is purchased, the consumption of the charged currency required to purchase it increases. The number of purchases is reset daily
Calculation of cost increase
Three modes of cost increase exist and are specified in the IncrementalRateModel.
linear
baseValue + (coefficientValue * number of exchanges)
Example
baseValue = 100, coefficientValue = 50
| Number of exchanges | Cost |
|---|---|
| 0 | 100 |
| 1 | 150 |
| 2 | 200 |
| 3 | 250 |
| 4 | 300 |
power
`coefficientValue * (number of replacements + 1) ^ 2
Example
coefficientValue = 50
| Number of exchanges | Cost |
|---|---|
| 0 | 50 |
| 1 | 200 |
| 2 | 450 |
| 3 | 800 |
| 4 | 1250 |
gs2_script
Calculated based on the results of GS2-Script execution. This can be used when you want to calculate costs based on complex conditions.
Example
currentExchangeCount = args.currentExchangeCount
quantity = quantity
cost = 100
for i = 1 , quantity do
cost = cost + (i + currentExchangeCount - 1) * 50
end
result = {
cost=cost
}
| number of exchanges | cost |
|---|---|
| 0 | 100 |
| 1 | 150 |
| 2 | 200 |
| 3 | 250 |
| 4 | 300 |
