Re-stacking currency while in vaults. #87

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. On our server, we're using multiple coins as our currency. The players love it for certain interactions, but complain about their vaults rapidly filling up with small denominations. For example, if they accumulate $50 in $0.10 intervals from Jobs in the course of 30 mins, they end up with 500 $0.10 coins in either their vault or inventory. Currently, in order to "re-stack" their money into higher denomination coins, they need to /m withdraw or /m deposit their entire balance. Both of which require initial inventory space in either the player inventory or vault, respectively.

Describe the solution you'd like Either a /m re-stack (or similar) command, or a config/command toggled auto re-stacking feature of the vault balance. Perhaps with a configurable timed interval.

Describe alternatives you've considered The only other solution I have though of is to eliminate lower denomination coins. However, one of our server features is a "nickle arcade" which uses physical coins for interactions and mini-games. So, I'm hesitant to do so.

Hello, that's a really good idea :)

I would like to implement an auto re-stacking scheduler that will run every few secs or so, but changing the player's inventory without them being in control of the action is actually something that lot of users will hate instantly. Though, the command implementation is something that I like and it would be easy to implement. 👍

I really like this, and want to add:

Players may dislike having their own inventory managed, but I suspect would be more ambivalent to vaults and ender chests. If currency that was held was consolidated, it would also make it impossible to spend as an item.
