The bottle caps is just a stand in for the high value consumable item(s). Say my tribe sets the value at ten to one, So for every ten bottle caps you can buy one unit of oil. This gives value and meaning to my tribes money.
Unless I am missing the point and what we are realy talking about is how do you keep things like bottle caps, buttons, or what ever from flooding into the game with the way it is now?
