randomCommanderFromFile.txt
The randomcommander from file feature allows players to load a commander deck from a predefined list stored in an external file. Here’s how it works:
File Loading: The game attempts to open a file named commander.txt located in the User/commander/ directory. This file contains a list of possible commander IDs or names.
Default Handling: If the file doesn't exist or is empty, the game creates the file and writes a default commander ID (670972) to it. The file is then re-opened for further processing.
Commander ID Extraction: The game reads each line in the file, ignoring comments (lines starting with #). It validates whether the line is a numeric commander ID. If not, the game tries to convert it from a card name to an ID using function getMTGId().
Filtering and Validation: The game then filters out invalid IDs (e.g., IDs that do not correspond to an existing card in the game's database). If no valid IDs remain, it defaults to using the same commander ID (670972).
Random Selection: Once a list of valid commander IDs is compiled, the game randomly selects one ID from this list to be used as the commander for the player.
Deck Construction: A temporary deck is constructed using the selected commander, along with a predefined number of lands and spells that match the commander's colors.
Summary
The random commander from file feature provides a way to customize and randomize the commander used in a game based on an external file. This adds variety and replayability, as each game can have a different commander selected from the list, allowing for different strategies and experiences.
Loads a player with a randomly selected commander from a specified file.
* This function reads a file ('User/commander/commander.txt') that contains a list of potential commander IDs or names.
* It selects one randomly to be used as the player's commander. If the file doesn't exist, or no valid commanders are found, a default commander ID (670972) is used.
* Can read the commander name and a multiverseID
* Lines that start with '#' are ignored

Had to use the treasure defined as primitive since the Fable of the Mirror-Breaker token won't create a treasure otherwise.
Changes:
Rat Colony
Shadow of the Second Sun
Sphinx of the Second Sun
Viashino is no longer a creature type. The postcombat main phase is now referred to as the second main phase.
Updated Rules.cpp to exclude the Viashino type from random kindred decks.
Bug Fixes:
Fable of the Mirror-Breaker
Rat Colony
Plumb the Forbidden
Oblivion Stone
Due to card type association, Dryad Arbor is placed at the end. Any other card that associates two super types in this manner should also be placed at the end of the primitive to avoid changeling thinking that “forest” is a creature type. This applies to reconfigure cards as well, to avoid making changelings equipment.

I had to update the _cards.dat files for The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth (LTR) and Tales of Middle-earth Commander (LTC) since they didn't have the correct official multiverse IDs. I'm sorry if this affects past decks, but I had to make these changes because it was difficult to debug cards within the set and obtain their respective tokens.
