Use

Produces Scrip at a cost of 1 Ink and 1/15 Papyrus Paper each (extra Papyrus Paper fragments are stored in the Mint for later use, much like small batches of Paint). The Mint must be configured for the name of the script, and once set, it can never be changed. No mint can be set to the same scrip name as any other Mint in Egypt (even those that have been torn down).

The Mint can be configured to print Scrip notes in any denomination up to one million, which can be changed at any time.

The amount of Scrip that has been issued from a Mint is displayed on its menu. Note, however, that it is possible to reset the counter on a Mint. Therefore, there may be more Scrip in circulation than the Mint indicates.

Scrip appears to be weightless/bulkless.
