Better Taxes
Profit from Progression
The amount of money earned from the Tax Collector increases over time as you kill more bosses, ranging from the base 50 copper per NPC to a whopping 10 silver per NPC after defeating the Moon Lord, with a 50% increase in income in Expert Mode. You can check the amount of money that is being earned at any point in time by asking the Tax Collector with his new Status button.
Raised Storage Cap
The amount of money that the Tax Collector is able to store at once is increased from 25 gold to 50 platinum to compensate for the increased money production.
Auto-Collection
If a Piggy Bank, Safe, or Defender's Forge is placed inside the Tax Collector's house, the amount of money in the Tax Collector's storage will be deposited into the Piggy Bank, Safe, or Defender's Forge in his house at midnight every day.
Emphasis on Customizability
Everything in this mod can be customized using tModLoader's built-in Mod Config GUI. See the "Config File Format" page on the wiki for detailed information on how to tune Better Taxes to your liking.
Mod Support
Better Taxes has built-in support for Calamity and Thorium's bosses. If you are a mod author, a Mod.Call() API is available for you to use to implement your own support for Better Taxes.
