- fixed the debug framerate calculation / drawing code (consolidated duplicated functions & variables mDelta vs a win-only mDeltaTime, no reason to have two), repositioned it to draw on the bottom left (it was colliding with other debug text for the cache info).
- for debug testing purposes, added a #define override to force the image cache to work with less memory (I've picked 8 megs, which is what the psp seems to use - the normal default on win/linux is 20 megs).
- Added a possibility to put a file "Res.txt" instead of the folder "Res". The file Res.txt is a simple 1 line text file, telling where to find the Res folder, terminated by "/". For example: "../../wagic_res".
This addresses issue 428 . This could also help us in the future, to develop mods.
- fixed memory leak in AEquip/ATeach
- Test suite now trims strings correctly (allows to have space between comma-separated card names)
- Added Paradise Mantle (for ATeach test)
- removed a missing wallpaper from wallpapers list
new ability lord...teach(whatever[whatever]) ability.
teach is a targeted lord, it takes the cards current target and lords it the ability. im aware of a tiny memleak it contains, but the leak is happening on parser lvl, so i need more eyes to look at it. teach is ideally used for equipment, and was designed to fix issue 244 taught abilities are not given to the source cards.
forced Ai to pay for sunburst correctly. it was choosing to pay with all of one type of mana. now it pays either max or 1 from max sunburst.
added a tiny double check for Ai to try and find something to use if it suddenly has mana in its pool. it is only a single check in a turn, but i notice it actually does slightly improve the usages of dark ritual and foreach mana producers. ideally i wanted it to check EVERYTIME. but i could not achieve it without putting the game in danger of looping. so once is better then none :/
fixed a bug with affinity where it was not counting duel lands, this is becuase of not setting it up correctly for lands with multiple types SORRY!
following up on wrenczes cleanup,
changing ints to floats
fixing calculations such as ( 16.0 / <some float>) to ( 16.0f / <some float>) to remove compiler warnings.
Minor note to others: if you're writing drawing code, the coordinate system in JGE uses floats, so don't bother with ints for x/y coords & the like. You're forcing the processor to do float to long conversions for nothing.
please copy "DeckEditorMenuBackdrop.png" into your PSP folder. Otherwise you will have a crash when you start up!
ChangesLog:
minor refactoring of DeckMenu
added a new DeckEditorMenu which is derived from DeckMenu. This customizes the deck editor menus with the exception of the confirmation screens (yes/no)
Still more work to be done to round out some font issues.
TODO:
put more information text in bottom row of menu.
reorganize statistical data to allow more info to be shown.
installed a horizontal text scroller for the deck selection screens in normal play
TODO:-> Need to make it smoother transition. It currently just replaces the text with the new text.
TODO:
change literals to use constants,
refactor the rendering code for the menu to have be leaner.
add text scroller to list all the tasks.
* 1st implementation will list all the tasks.dat
* 2nd round will try to get the scroller to only display relevant tasks to ai
Special thanks to wololo and MootPoint for helping me hammer this out. To abrasax, for the initial design of the layout.
this fixes a bug(?) that had high priority and maintains same effect as before. removed all traces of the "bugged(?) hint" from CardPrimitive.
Issue: 498
I've also added my current work on the zone navigation system (class Navigator) - it's currently turned off for now (the override for this is inside of CardSelectorSingleton's Instance() call, simply comment out the NEW CardSelector and uncomment out the NEW Navigator line.) It's functional, but I want to do more testing before considering wiring it into the game options or something similar. (Also, note that it currently doesn't support the mouse functionality added by DJardin.)
Lastly, there's a bug crash fix in ActionStack that I tripped across while testing - basically, an illegal index value would have us walk off the bounds of a vector.
Also fixed the project includes so that we don't need to always use the indirect include path, ie:
#include "../include/foo.h" -> #include "foo.h"
I'm don't know much about make files - if I busted the linux build, mea culpa, but I think we're okay on that front too. For future reference, here's the most straightforward link on the topic of adding pch support to make files:

this is by no means absolutely perfect, i like it tho, and makes for some real good times with level up deck built with equips.
you will notice i added a level=number...to the level up creatures, this has no effect on players, this is just a small hint to the Ai as to when it should stop investing mana in that creature. the chances are a little over half that ai will want to level a creature, increased ever so slightly with each level up.
for equipment, the Ai will now want to equip its best Creature(determined by power+toughness+convertedcost+how many abilities it has) and will want to equip these "better" cards atleast 2 times before it is reduced. same system for prevent damage, it will want to save its "better creature" more then a 1/1 token.
for both tho i added slight bonuses...
to equip, there is a higher chance that the ai will want to target a white creature, with an extra bonus if the creature is a 1/1 and nontoken. this is to encourage Ai to equip in white weenie decks
in prevent, there is a slight bonus if the creature is a 1/1 and the blocker/blockee has a power of 1.
currently prevent damage treated this way is not coded for direct damage spell, sorry ! but for combat you will notice ai taking a stand and fighting back hard.
No option to delete or edit the AI deck once it has been created.
The deck gets saved as the canonical form of the deck to match other AI deck formats.
