Indicates Card Id, Useful for cards/tokens to determine their correct Id
in the primitives. Its much easier to fix missing images. Update your
modrules.xml
This fixes the shop crashing the game when you buy a card packs in the
shop. The targeting indicator looks at the stack so it needs to be
enabled only when you're in the "game"...
When a creature is damaged and has critical life, PT turns to
red(critical life is 2 and below), if a card has a powered down status
like from -1/-1 counter, the PT turns to thistle, if powered up above 4,
the PT turns into yellow, default is white. legendary eldrazi pt is
violet. Token Indicator is T, and C for cards with copy abilities(so we
can differentiate them from originals), TC for both token and copy cat
cards.
if a creature was damaged or has a negative toughness bonus, the pt
changes to crimson red, if the creature was not damaged and has power
buff, the color changes to spring green, normal was default white.
adjusted the way cardsacrificed events were sent
added a ability which is a way to tell a targeted player, yourself, or opponent to do a set of abilities.
ability$! EFFECT _ EFFECT !$ WHO
the idea here is that the abilities are being added to the targeted players game...so
target(player) ability$!target(<2>*|myhand) reject!$ targetedplayer
this line tells the player to discard 2 cards...
you can also use it without targeting by using WHO words..
controller, owner, targetcontroller, opponent, targetedplayer
this ability defualts to opponent.
cards coming soon...
taught ai when not to play a planeswalker, told ai to look for planeswalkers as a card type to play.
fixed a crash related to tokens and cardgui..tokens dont have models....
made a 1 line change to deckveiwer that makes it usable on touch devices and improves the overall look and feel of deckveiwer....
first somehow accidentally line 3616 mtgability.cpp removefromgame was adding an observer instead of removing it, this explains "abilities sometimes acting strangely or not being removed"...I'm surprised it didn't create memleaks or extremely visible side-effects...
2nd fixed a bug where triggered abilities would share a menu with activated abilities of a card when ever you had enough mana floating to pay an activated ability before the trigger resolved.
adjust the way ai calculates if it should use cards like wrath of god, though it is still open to using it at a random chance, i noticed that the method we use might not be the best.
an ability with an eff of 1 for example actually has a 10% chance of being choosen....
lets say rng rolls 3402
when you % this it simply takes the 2 last numbers making this roll 2...meaning that unless we assign no "random chance to do blah" the actual chance of ai using a stupid ability is 10%...I'm leaving that logic how it is tho I "unfactored"(?) it to make it easier to track the numbers, also added a debug trace to help see how often we hit "lottery chance" ...
fixed a minor crash from multiability trying to fetch menutext when no abilities existed in the vector anymore.
this patch introduces a new subkeyword for "may " which is syntax pay(manacost)
auto=may pay({w}) untap
this is to allow the card group that was coded using the activated ability loophole i described at the start. it works the same way as it did with the loophole only it is actually something we want to happen instead of a flaw in the engine...you float the mana same as before and when the may line is triggered it will check if payment can be made with exist mana if so then it displays the menutext for the ability, if that ability is choosen it then charges you the mana directly before activation.
this patch also include flip( ability, tho not intended originally for this version, I had previously had it finished and was polishing it right before I noticed the bugs above. since this keyword is not intended to add cards for this version, I wont go into massive details about it at this time.
- attempt at reducing loading times on the PSP: I merged a few graphics files together, removed some unused calls from the initialization functions, and moved some other ones to have a more lazy approach. The PSP version remains fairly slow in some parts (especially loading, but also entering the shop, or starting a new game), so I will try to reduce file access as much as possible in the days to come. Not a release blocker IMO though, but I4d sure love if it were faster.
- uppercased "Track1.mp3" to be in line with the actual filename. Most likely this had been broken forever on case-sensitive OSes
- I removed costly calls from the textscroller. I believe it wasn't very useful in its previous state. Now it's only "advertising" for unlockable stuff, which I think is ok (and allows to refresh it every time the menu is loaded)
- As a counterpart, added a "% complete" progress bar in the menu, something I wanted to add a while ago.
