Render Money $ instead of tokens

[phseven]

We know that the processor api and system on the script is token based but  I think there is the possibility to have tokens on the back ground but render dollars to users.

Like this 

$1 dollar is 100 cents  so each token will be 1 cents

100 tokens = $1 dollar this way calculation will be easier.

Is there a easy way to implement this?

Yes, anywhere where you display tokens you have to do a template conversion like this:

for example $data.tokens_required variable contains 123 number
you need to divide it to 100, then format to a decimal form with 2 decimals, and finally add a dollar sign before it

{{assign var="tokens_required_in_usd" value=$data.tokens_required/100|number_format:2:".":""}}
{{assign var="tokens_required_in_usd" value="\$`$tokens_required_in_usd`"}}

now $tokens_required_in_usd variable should contain $1.23

It´s $data.toekns_required  or $Item.tokens_required?

If I use data nothing will display

It depends on the content where you use it. If you use it in include_list_videos_block_common.tpl, then it will be $item. If you use inside video_view block then it will be $data. The base variable is different depending on the context.
