added
"whenever a creature enters the battlefield you may pay {1}, if you do gain one life"
conditional may pay({cost}) effect
this version is a super type ability, and can only be used in certain combos.
to nest you will need to use it in its subtype pay[[{cost}]] effect
pay keyword can have sideeffects coded as follows
pay[[{1}]] life:1?life:-1
pay one mana and gain 1 life, if you dont then you lose one life. notice no space between the abilities and the question mark.
added castcard()
a method to cast a targeted card, this contains the following subkeywords which can be used in combinations
(normal)
(restricted)
(copied)
(noevent)
castcard(restricted copied noevent) for example will cast a card that is a copy or the spell without sending a cast event only when the spell is castable.
"normal" subkeyword cast the actual spell, not a copy.
extended the use of exiledeath to everyzone, any card going from any zone to graveyard is placed in exile if it has exiledeath.
limited swipe left to open hand only when hand is closed view.
"moveto(" can now be named.
i choose to use other cost instead of creating a brand new cost type.
otherrestriction determines if the card is the miracle for the turn.
[card]
name=Devastation Tide
auto=all(*[-land]) moveto(ownerhand)
other={1}{u} name(Miracle)
otherrestriction=miracle
text=Return all nonland permanents to their owners' hands. -- Miracle {1}{U} (You may cast this card for its miracle cost when you draw it if it's the first card you drew this turn.)
mana={3}{U}{U}
type=Sorcery
[/card]
what this means is that if a player so choose, they can list the sets 3 letter code in the en.txt as follows
BOK=betrayers of kamikawa
it will now list the names either as the 3 letter code if thier is no entry, or as whatever you call it in the lang->en.txt file.
#HINT:good(icy prison)
ai will act as though the effects of this card are now good, choosing to cast it on it's own creatures.
#HINT:bad(ancestral recall)
ai will now use this card targeting the opponent.
good in cases where you are trying to mill the opponent
the effects in wagic have gotten so complex that ai simply has no idea what some cards should target. this helps in most of the cases.
adjusted normal difficulty to include 2 lands, 2 spells under 3 mana.
adjusted hard difficulty to always include 2 lands, the rest are randomly drawn. this prevents ai from being mana screwed on opening hand.
first, i added a timer to hide the big card after 5 secs or until a movement is registered.
2nd, removed the advancing of phases with flick up.
3rd added a flick left to "show/hide hand"
4th, fixed an error in the logic of "getDifficulty" part of the reason optimizedhand was not working.
finally, unrefactored the checks of optimized hand, it was FAR to difficult to see what was actually happening the way it was coded.
optimizedhand is finally working again,
toggledifficulty and optimizedhand will again trigger and greatly improve ai vs player matches

ex:Upwelling
added a tag for mana, doesntempty
add{g}{g}{g} doesntempty
what this does is make THAT mana remain in the pool until end of turn.
