this should allow players to code cards with the detain ability of rtr correctly, as well as a handful of similar cards in the unsupported text.
detain is coded
auto={1}{t}:target(creature|opponentBattlefield) transforms((Detained,newability[cantattack],newability[cantblock],newability[noactivatedability])) uynt
enjoy
format is as follows
HINT#combo hold(blah|myhand)^until(blah|mygraveyard)^until(blah|opponentshand)^restriction{type(creature|mybattlefield)~morethan~2}^cast(blah) targeting(blah|mygraveyard)^totalmananneeded({g}{g}{r}{u}{2})
the ai can be told to hold more then one card, until as many condiations as you want are met, until( is a TC and can basically be used in a fasion of saying "hold arbor elf until you have a lord of atlantas in play and a gaint growth in you hand"
once the condiations are met you can later tell it to cast(gaint growth) targeting(arbor elf[fresh]|mybattlefield)...
I also included the whole of the games restrictions system...
so you can get really really creative with this so far.
the next thing I will do is ability targeting and card favoring.
it requires an update to your mtg rules txt...
the coding is as follows
[card]
name=Arbor Elf
mana={g}
auto=soulbond 1/3
auto=soulbond {t}:add{g}
abilities=soulbond
type=Creature
subtype=Elf Druid
power=1
toughness=1
[/card]
auto=soulbond *any ability supported by wagic*
abilities=soulbond
the above arbor elf gives itself and its soulbond creature a 1/3 bonus and the ability to tap for green mana.
* updated build tools to have core files zip naming scheme be based on version information contained in build.number.properties
* added new python library to allow reading java property files, remember to add the library to your PYTHONPATH before executing the python script otherwise the script will fail.

creating a snapshot of a card instance in garbage for stored cards, the issue with previous version was it was using base model value instead of what the storedcard was actually at the time it was in battlefield. example, animal boneyard test was coming up 1 toughness short becuase the creature storedcard pointed to was sent to graveyard for the sacrifice.
changed myStored TargetChooser to use storedSourceCard instead, as this is supposed to point to the actual card and not a snapshot.
this is a method to set the order in which ai decides to play cards, you can for example tell ai to look for 2 instants, before trying to find a creature.
be sure to list all main types of the deck otherwise ai will pass on stuff
this is the current
const char* types[] = {"planeswalker","creature", "enchantment", "artifact", "sorcery", "instant"};
so be sure you include them if the decks need them.
other the above example would be coded
HINT:castpriority(instant,instant,creature,planeswalker,enchantment,artifact,sorcery)
as you can see this deck will now look for and play if possible, 2 instants before any of the other types.
this will really help with decks which rely on cards like dark ritual to produce mana to cast creature, simply by listing instant before creature. if the deck had dark rituals, in the above example, and it had them in hand, it would then cast dark ritual, dark ritual, then one of the remaining types. this is actually tested not just assumed.
- Fixed the animation for the menu fonts when selecting an item in the menu. mTargetScale and mScale in SimpleButton are here for a reason, people!
-- Note: I'm not sure I actually like the "zoom on currently selected item" thing, not sure it brings much.
-- we should definitely consider a hi resolution font because now it really doesn't look good, when it is scaled that much
Why is the subtypes menu using a different font from all other simpleMenus ?
- Removed one "stats" button as well as the "menu" button. The goal is to let the screen "breathe" and show cards as much as possible.
-- Removing the "menu" button is also in line with all other screens of the game, where that button never appears.
- With the same goal, the "XXX of XXX cards" text is now displayed only when scrolling
- removed ACTION_LOGGING_TESTING code
- Fixed AIvsAI games multithreaded games
- Activated undo when testsuite is enable
- Defined an initial player comparison operator
- Fixed multi-threaded modification to subtypes
- Fixed gameTurn cleanup for gameObserver reuse
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...
Curse of Oblivion moved back to unsupported.
added support for targeting a zone by targeting a player...
any time you have targeted a player, you can access items in thier zones by using
targetedpersonsZONE
targetedpersonsbattlefield for example...
added "targetedplayer" as a targetchooser and who.
added "mycurses" targetchooser.
added "targetedcurses" word variable.
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....
counter{}
so you can get a count of a certain counter on a card
the next consist of parts using the same targetchooser method as type:
power:
toughness:
convertedcost:
followed by ---
highest:
lowest:
followed by targetchooser
blah:mybattlefield
so if i want highest converted cost of creatures i control..
convertedcost:highest:creature:mybattlefield
also added an internal ability to reuse and display flying text with a string passed to it.
