Allow users to input values ending with K/B/T into the convertor
Bonus: Add K/B/T to the output(1k p > 10b g) ~ Lady Saxophone

input for gaia cash to Gold/Plat ~ Slick Southpaw

[Lady Saxophone]

Some suggestions:


• Allow users to input values ending with K/B/T into the convertor
  Bonus: Add K/B/T to the output as well? (ex: 1k plat >> 10b gold)
  Most people work with endings like this in forums and it saves people from having to think how many zeroes are in a trillion and whatnot.
  
  
• An automatic translator which takes content inside of a forum post and translates it into the preferred currency
  ex: I post "1k plat for ur halo"
  The add-on would auto-translate this post into "10b gold for ur halo"
  This would probably be a bit harder to do though since not everyone specifies their currency when offering.
  Additionally, you run the possibility of doing some "mistake" translations if you just have it search for phrases like "1k" -- this could be referring to "1k plat," but it could also be used in context such as "1k caches" or "1k likes" or etc.

Your first bullet point is definitely something I plan to implement, as for the grabbing of text post and what not I can see that being more of a problem than a solution. people would have to follow a specific format for that. which wont happen :/ unfortunately. ill add some of your suggestions to my second post under todo, thanks for the feedback!

I don't have much to add at the moment but this is such a great idea!

[Slick Southpaw]

Definitely like, and I don't know if it's possible, but implementing a converter for Gcash too?

Totally forgot about gcash, thanks for the suggestion! I'll see what I can come up with

*Edit*
Gcash is harder than thought, due to its fluctuation.
There's some hope though for this.

For a gcash conversion, I'll be blunt it's gonna be beta, it'll have bug's.
I personally don't use gcash so it's another area the needs further investigation.

I mean I know this may not be where you want to take this, and I don't know if there would be a way to copy the MP database into an extension without entering it by hand, but it would be cool if instead of just a calculator it was more of a "Marketplace" extension that lets you get a quick Lowest/ABP of an item you type in, there wouldnt be a search but like, an exact name match and an output. I know thats a crazy thing to even suggest when you're working on a calculator, but I think it would be a hit if you ever had the time/wanted to take on such a project lol But I think the calculator is fine as it is, a handy thing for when youre blanking on converting, or if you cant do it its really helpful

New layout?
keep current or implement a sidebar layout?

a trim function to convert output into abbreviated format e.g. 1,000p = 1kp

:Random ideas/maybes:
grab amount of gold/plat from web-page and automatically have it placed in input?

I love this, (and I hate to be that guy) but seeing "ammount" would drive me crazy every time I used it.

It should be "amount".

Otherwise, this is an amazzzing add-on, as I'm so tired of doing the math in my head.
Often I'm doing large purchases of items, and I add up all the items in plat then convert to Gold for people who still use that currency.
