Parameters of operation#

To ensure the proper operation of Economy, there are some parameters in place to keep the service running optimally, both from a storage and runtime usage perspective.

Parameter caps#

Currencies#

The maximum number of currencies you can configure in a project is 20. If you try to configure more than 20 currencies, the system returns an error.

Configuration items#

The total number of configuration items in a game is 750 per project. This includes up to 20 currencies you might have.

Cost items in a purchase#

For virtual purchases, the maximum amount of cost resources allowed for a single transaction is 20. A cost resource is any currency or inventory item needed to proceed with a transaction. Economy disables the Add button in the Unity Cloud Dashboard UI when you try to add more than 20 cost items to a purchase.

Reward items in a purchase#

For all purchases (virtual and real money), the maximum amount of items given to the player as the reward of a single purchase transaction is 20. Economy disables the Add button in the Unity Cloud Dashboard UI when you try to add more than 20 items as a reward.

Custom data#

If the Custom data associated with an item exceeds 5 KB per item or item instance, Economy displays an error message in the Unity Cloud Dashboard UI, if the error originates from the configuration. If the error originates from the game itself, the API returns an error message.

Inventory instances#

There is a limit of 1000 inventory instances per player. An error is only reported in the Player API. Trying to add more items to a player will result in an error returned by the API.
