Since my game is corrupt and my currency doesnt work the correct way, this post is irrelephant..
So, I've been spending some time with Exanimia now, and I've tried to pay attention to the currency.
After managing to get my first silver-coin, I noticed it went from copper til silver around, 250 copper. Although that is a fair amount of work before getting your first silver, I felt like I still wasn't sure how much it was actually worth. Since I'm a programmer, I made the assumptions that since 1 byte = 255 (storing values from 0-255), 256 copper is 1 silver:
255 = max amount of copper or silver.
1 silver, 0 copper = 256 copper
255 silver, 255 copper = 65 535 copper (one copper short to 1 gold)
1 gold = 256 silver = 65 536 copper
semi-geeky assumption of maximum gold possible to possess:
My conclusion to this is: just loitering yield no progress. However, challenging yourself and your champion, may reward big, earning you golds and silver that you may spend on better gear.
If anyone want to see how much value any number of gold coins, see spoiler below for formula

1 gold = 256 silver = 65 536 copper
semi-geeky assumption of maximum gold possible to possess:
You can have huge amount of gold. If there is no tier above gold, and if copper is stored in a byte - I assume the money is stored in total of 4 bytes (normal) , which results in a maximum money value off:
65 536 gold, 255 silver and 255 copper = 16 711 680 silver, 255 copper = 4 294 967 295 copper
65 536 gold, 255 silver and 255 copper = 16 711 680 silver, 255 copper = 4 294 967 295 copper
My conclusion to this is: just loitering yield no progress. However, challenging yourself and your champion, may reward big, earning you golds and silver that you may spend on better gear.
Limits:
Gold: 0 -> 65 536,
Silver : 0 -> 255,
Copper: 0 -> 65 536
Gold*256*256 + Silver*256 + Copper
example:
5 gold, 24 silver, 99 Copper
5*256*256 + 24*256 + 99 = 333 923 Copper
Gold: 0 -> 65 536,
Silver : 0 -> 255,
Copper: 0 -> 65 536
Gold*256*256 + Silver*256 + Copper
example:
5 gold, 24 silver, 99 Copper
5*256*256 + 24*256 + 99 = 333 923 Copper
