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.
{x:black}
{x:color}
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.
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.
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.
which tells the ai not to use the targetible cards as attackers, this can be card names, and CD modes.
modified the way ai handles multikicker. it will not be casting 1/1 joragas anymore :D
made WParsedInt ignore "+" signs....
added a new affinity ability...autohand=affinity(creature[vampire]|mygraveyard) ....
this is essentially affinity for creatures in your grave.
added supkeyword to clone clone addtype(zombie)....it adds the type listed to the cards types on clone...
reparse PT bonus on resolve.
reworked bushido, it should now work correctly...aside from that it now excepts word variables...fumiko is now bushido(type:creature[attacking]:battlefield/type:creature[attacking]:battlefield)
added a keyword to access acontrolsteal..the keyword is "steal"
auto=ueot steal target(creature)
reworked persist to handle undying..added the new counter handling rules intruduced by wotc in ISD
added a vector cardsAbilities to mtgcardinstance...this keeps the abilities added to the game for a card to use stored where we can easly alter or remove them.
added an automatic increase to geteff return if the ability is a putinplay ability.
finished coding support for flip and double sided cards, though viewing the "other side" is still not possible yet.
the ability follows the mtg rules.
the ability syntax is flip(card name)...a card can flip into any other card by name...even flip into itself.
added a "canPay() call for Ninja cost...to prevent it from coming up in a menu unless you're in blockers....
added 3 new restriction types that work very similar to type(
thisturn(tc)~morethan~2
lastturn(tc)~lessthan~thisturn(tc)
compare(wordvarible)~equalto~compare(wordvarible)
these are pretty self explanitory.
moved "&&" ability parsing below "this(" allowing "this(" to grant abilities now which contain &&...enclave egologist bug is fixed by this.
fixed an issue with combatspirit link for some reason the way i was doing the bool was not always working.
took care of the todo for AProtectionFrom...you can now give a protection from(blah) in a instant or ueot ability.
added altho very limited right now a "targetedplayer" tc word. i hope to increase this with time.
as always my sidekick doc already has some cards coded for this and test will follow the addition of the cards.
-- I added an AbilityParser.cpp file, mid term goal is to move AbilityFactory there, so that MTGAbility.cpp becomes a bit less big.
-- I tried to add the file reference in Makefiles, but only tested windows compilation so far
- Fixed bugs related to "castRestriction" variables in MTGAbility. these variables were declared in both the parent and children classes, leading to bugs and duplicate code/content
The test suite passes
Included in a new modrules.xml tags.
<cardgui>
<background> Stores information concerning the colors </ background>
<renderbig> Stores information to draw the card </ renderbig>
<rendertinycrop> Stores information to draw the card </ rendertinycrop>
</ cardgui>
Change the variables array for vectors
- removed every references to the gameobserver singleton. This object can now be instantiated several times as it's needed for minmax. To be able to do that, I mostly added a reference to a gameobserver from any targetable object (cards, players, spells) and abilities.
- removed incorrect casts of MTGCardInstance into Spell objects.
- AI Test system now allows you to put decks in ai/bakaA and ai/bakaB instead of ai/baka. This allows to let AIPlayerBaka and AIPlayerBakaB play with specific decks
- Test suite speed improvement. Improved the card name cache. Test suite now runs in 850 seconds instead of 950 on my machine.
- minor code cleanup
-- This is a copy/paste and shouldn't have any impact on the logic. I just moved some functions from AIPlayer to AIPlayerBaka
- Added back the possibility to select a different Resource folder with file Res.txt
- Fix a crash when a token id does not exist
opponent play an ability, player interupts and clicks a card with TargetChooser which has no valid targets; player then tries to cancel targetchooser, instead the stack is displayed again, player is then locked in a TargetChooser unable to click other cards.
originally i was going to do it in the reactToClick however, after thinking about it, it made no sense to me that a targetchooser would be set and a cardwaitingfortargets would be set if you know ahead of time that no valid targets existed.
now when clicking cards which have TargetChoosers and no valid targets, no tc is set, and no cardiswaitingfortargets; instead return 0.
ok this target chooser is set apart from the others becuase it focuses on relationship between cards instead of other forms of checking, also i made sure to add a method for deeper Targeting.
it is the same as any other target chooser when it comes to writeing the syntax and can be used in almost every way a normal one can.
here is what i mean by deeper targeting
this targetchooser allows you to denote a nested targetchooser.
target(children[targerchooser])
all(parents[targetchooser])
it is plural becuase i do allow maxtargeting to be denoted here. lets say you want to have a domain that lets you do the following
"2 of my target inhabitants get +1/+1 until end of turn"
you can do this...
auto={0}:target(<2>children) +1/+1 ueot
how about even more complex?
auto={0}:target(<2>children[elf[power=1]]) +1/+1
2 of my children that are elves with power equal to 1.
the same goes for parents, you can also lord( with this targetchooser.
if you want to say
"the inhabitants of this domain gain flying"
auto=lord(children) flying
here are some example coding that you can play around with.
[card]
name=Forest
text=G
auto=lord(children[elf]) +3/+3
auto={0}:target(<2>children) +12/+12
type=Basic Land
subtype=Forest
[/card]
[card]
name=Tidal Kraken
abilities=unblockable
target=land|mybattlefield
auto=connect
auto={0}:target(parents) destroy
text=Tidal Kraken is unblockable.
mana={0}
type=Creature
subtype=Kraken
power=6
toughness=6
[/card]
[card]
name=Arbor Elf
target=<upto:3>land|mybattlefield
auto=connect
auto=foreach(parents[forest]) 1/1
mana={0}
type=creature
subtype=elf
power=1
toughness=1
[/card]
*above, arbor elf can target upto 3 domains...for each one you choose to connect him to that is a forest, arbor elf would gain 1/1..
so as you can see it is pretty indepth.
note: all test pass.
added abilities:
proliferate
ProliferateChooser:new targetchooser for cards with counter and poison counters "proliferation".
MenuAbility:new internal ability to create custom menus of abilities which can be activated in sequence one after another.
multikicker, syntax kicker=multi{b}
works with variable word "kicked", the amount of times it was kicked.
target=<number>tc,target=<upto:>tc,target=<anyamount>tc,target(<number>tc),target(<upto:>tc),target(<anynumber>tc);
multitarget is now supported with the exception of "devided any way you choose" which can not be supported becuase we allow detoggling of targeted cards with a "second" click....so you can not click the same card 2 times to add it to the targets list twice for example.
this is minor, as the bulk of multitarget is not "devided"
removed 's' parsing for multitarget, added a limit of 1000 to "unlimited" for easier handling; we currently can't handle activation of an ability on a 1000 cards very well on any platform(infact i don't suggest it)
Countershroud(counterstring), this MTGAbility allows you to denote that a card can not have counters of the type "counterstring" put on it.
"any" is for no counters allowed at all. this is a replacement effect. cards state that they can still be the targets of counter effects, however on resolve nothing is placed on them instead.
@counteradded(counterstring) from(target):,@counterremoved(counterstring) from(target):: these are triggers for cards which state "whenever you add a counter of "counterstring" to "target"; added counterEvents struct;
other changes:
added support for ai handling of multitargeted spells.
changed a few of delete( into SAFE_DELETE(, safed up a couple areas where they did not seem safe to me;
added better handling of menus presented to ai, it will try to select the best based on eff returns.
added varible lastactioncontroller for ai use, it keeps it truely from ever tripping over itself and brings ai more inline with MTG rules.
converted TC into a protected member.
added "abilitybelongsto" string to tc, and set "owner" of the tc. a tc should never belong to "no one" it should always have a owner.
abilitybelongs to string is solely for easier debugging, i found it was a pain to never know what ability created a tc while i coded multitarget. the owner of the tc is the only one that should be using it, if an ability needs to declare the opponent as the owner (choose discard which is currently unsupported for example) this will allow us to better handle that situation by setting the tc owner in the ability which called it.
rewrote the logic of "checkonly" in ai choose targets, the only time it is "checkonly" is when it is trying to see if it had a target for a spell before it cast it, i now set this in the actual function call instead, the old method was far to error prone.
wrote logic for ai checking of menu objects presented to it,
ai will now make better choices when a menu is presented to it based on what it already knows. this changes it from it's old method of "just click the first option".
taught ai how to use multi-mana producers such as birds and duel lands by adding a method for it to find it's mana for a payment. it can effectively use cards like birds of paradise and sol ring(without locking up). It's primary method of pMana searching was maintain for performance(no need to deep search if we have it in pMana).
added a vector to actionlayer to store mana abilities for pMana. this provides us with a dramatic improvement when mana lords are present by reducing the amount of objects that need checking when ai checks pMana.
with 80 mana objects and a ton of lords one instance i checked went from 8000ish checks down to 80<===big difference.
added "tapped" green coloring(sorry i missed that!)...added red coloring to current actionLayers current action card (usually the source).
changed "type(" restrictions second amount from atoi into wparsedint for more flexiable coding.
add "&" parsing to CD targetchooser, removed "iscolorandcolor" variables and functions becuase they were a hack the real fix was this.
cretaure[dragon&black&blue] a creature that is a dragon, and black and also blue.
changed some of the ai computeactions and
removed unneeded gaurds in ai chooseblockers, they did more harm then good.
so i converted it from string comparisons and counting the battlefield..into targetchoosers with declarable operator.
simplified the code from the mess it was before into something alot easier to card code with.
example before:
mytypemin:less type(land),opponenttypemin:* type(land)
becomes
type(land|mybattlefield)~lessthan~type(land|opponentbattlefield)
the new syntax is:
type(targetchooser)~operator~number
type(targetchooser)~operator~type(targetchooser)
the operator are:
morethan
lessthan
equalto
this update requires you to update your rules folder files!!!
2nd
added 2 new vanguard game modes.
Stone Hewer Basic - when ever a creature enters play, a random equipment with a converted mana cost less than or equal to that creature is put into play and attached to it.
this mode is unlockable, requirement = win a match where 10 or more equipment were in the battlefeild at the moment you won.
Hermit Druid basic- in this game mode, during each of the players upkeeps, a random land card from their deck is placed into the battlefield, these do not count against your 1 land per turn limit.
to unlock this, win any match with less then 10 lands.
I've marked all the ones I found with the following TODO comment:
TODO: C6246: <blah blah>
a few in particular are the ones related to "oneShot" and "_target". These are local variables that are declared that
mask either a method parameter or a member variable.
========================================
added a function to return the action element id by mtgcardinstance.
=======================================
refactored all 5 combat triggers to be handled in a single class, this change helps reduce the "bits and pieces" of trigger restrictions which some did support while others didnt, it also allows for easier editing and debugging if future code needs to be added to it.
refactored the parsing for the combat triggers also, so that a combat trigger can be built from a single object if it only contains "or"...amongst other reasons.
the new syntax is auto=@combat(blocking,attacking,turnlimited,once) source(TC) from(TC):effect...all the same words are still used, except they are now all included inside the combat(-----) this includes restrictions for the triggers. if a card still needs multiple triggers from some reason...it is still 100% allowed to have as many as you want, with whatever you want inside them...check updated primitive for examples.
the required sections are auto=@combat(atleast one trigger) source(TC):effect.
=========================================
moved the limitsperturn "limit:" from genericactivatedability up to its parent class activatedability, did this for the following reason
first rules correction, the previous method tracked uses on resolve, which is incorrect, it should count as the ability is fired and placed on the stack.
second, it keeps all the actiavted ability restrictions in the same place, this is the location we are checking summoning sickness, actived restrictions such as "myturnonly" ect. makes sense to handle it in the parent.
third, it allow any and all future activated abilities easy access to "limit:" if needed, it would only require adding a limit string to pass on construction to the child classes instead of recoding the same exact checks as genericactivated.
=======================================================
reworked "name(" so that it no longer is required to be used inside a "&&" ability, also it no longer will create a MTGAbility object with a false return. that was just dirty of me :/
enabled "name(" to replace the menutext of alternative cost.
"other={cost} name(holy cow)"
will display "holy cow" instead of "pay alternative cost", this change is nice because we ended up using "other" cost for WAY more then originally planned...now we can label it exactly what it should say when you click it.
======================================================
added a subtype keyword for powertoughnessmodifier so that you can basically switch on non-static variables for it...lifetotal/lifetotal nonstatic...PT can now except all word variables as i added reparsing of the ints, had to maintain old methods as ai needs them to decide what to do with them.
======================================================
removed the following extremely redundant classes
both ABecomes classes---atransformer has become far superior to it, i kept the "becomes(" parsing tho, and it will act exactly as it use to, except now it has access to most of the subkeywords of transforms...it also now allows word variables. and excepts "forever" as a tag. added "newcolor" subkeyword to transforms to create the "becomes(" adding a color without removing colors effect. "becomes(" now returns a constructor for ATransformer that emulates becomes( exactly as it worked before.
both forevertransformer classes, the only difference between the 2 was one subkeyword, and "forever" did not return a "destroy()"...i recreated this in less then 4 lines and a bool. that was sloppy of me :( i guess we learn and improve.
============================================================================
i removed the parsing of card casting restriction from the first pass when cards load, instead of making it a cardprimitive object, i now simply pass the string through the card and build the restrictions when theyre actually needed and checked.
this change allowed for alot of clean up, removing enum and dependancy on cardprimitive, and combining both allowedAltCast and allowedtocast functions checks through a new function "parseCastRestrictions"...this change keeps all the cast resrictions in a single place, which makes it easier to debug or add if needed, and while i was at it, i enabled it so cards can now contain as many restrictions as you want *of the available ones*
added "turn:" as a restriction to make it so "fourth turn" could actually be ANY turn you list, this allowed me to remove a dirty line of code which was checking if a card was o converted cost but had a suspend...lotus bloom...which can not be cast normally..for cards like this now you can use restriction=turn:200 or otherrestriction=turn:200....
=========================================================================
added Phyrexian Mana...svntax {p(r)} ....this will always be payable with 2 life, but if you have a red mana for this example, it will charge you the red mana instead...you can have any combination of P mana you want in any of the games manacost.
===================================================
reworked a bit of the ai logic i added, it now has true interrupting and can now correctly target for fizzles, Ai will go into full out counterspell wars with you now...
===================================================
added a ingame reward system with fancy flying text animations, they reward the player with actual credits, but are extremely hard to trigger off, theyre not meant to be something you see every 5 secs, but something that when you see them trigger you go "damn that was cool"
the triggers and effects are as follows
first the combo system:
you have to chain cast 5 or more card, without tapping or being interupted, tiny bonus for this..chain is broken as soon as you or your opponent tap something.
next combo level is
Abundant Resources - chain 10 or more spells same condition
then
killer - chain 15 or more same condition
this will include a flying text render once a chain is successfully started (5+ cast)
this bonus can be triggered multiple times in a match
the next bonus is
+ //creatures entering play consecutively will allow you a chance
+ //to gain a bonus for maintaining force sizes, it will trigger every 10th
+ //creature which enters play consecutively.
this is restarted every time a noncreature enters play.
the levels are as follows,
Deadly Force Bonus! -10 creatures enter play consecutively
Extreme Infantry Bonus! - 10 creatures enter play consecutively and you maintain a force size of 20+
Malignant Conqueror Bonus! -10 creatures enter play consecutively and you maintain a force size of 40+
this can only be triggered once per level per match.
next bonus is given for having alot of a specific type come into play under your control during a match, this bonus only triggers once per match.
the levels are:
Toy Collector!
Beast Tamer!
Vampire King!
Lord of Swarms!
Master of Elements!
Zombie Apocalypse!
Sword And Shield!
Medic!
The Promenade!
Heavenly Host!
Teeth And Scales!
its pretty easy to figure out what each requires to trigger, teeth and scales for example is dragons, wurms, drakes, and snakes.
the final bonus is deal 100 damage from a single source in a single damage event, this one triggers only once per match.
============================================================
fixed the following bugs::::
regenerate was not working for non-creature regeneration ie:welding jar
ai would sometime get stuck in a infinate loop tho extremely rarely while deciding what to do, the cause
if (clickstream.empty())
computeActions();
is NOT enough...ai should NEVER be computing actions (finding a card or ability to play) when it is NOT the active player..meaning, it does not have priority.
g->currentlyActing() is the player that has priority.
if (clickstream.empty() && g->currentlyActing() == this)...loop fixed :)
dynamicability had a couple weird results, from sources which dont have an amount to return, i now check this and if non, the amount is 0.
transformer will no longer add the same types a card already has..
removed an unneeded
if (!activated) ....oris bug seems to be corrected with this change.
wrapped limitsperturn checks in a conditional to skip it if there is no limit string.
added safer method to get the target of the combat trigger. the previous could potentially cause a crash if you interrupted the ability while the combat trigger was on the stack, it would do a call to "getnextopponent" and return a null pointer. i now send the opponent with the event.
fixed a crash that would happen when a card did not have a type= line. having a type or subtype line is now optional. and highly recommended to avoid using "type=nothing"
moved a function call in buyback isreactingtoclick so that it checks if its in the hand before parsing the restrictions for it.
removed allowedtocast function calls from the alternative payment types, they are only supposed to check allowedtocast if it is something like "buyback" and kicker...not "you may pay this instead"....
corrected an issue with type: variable where it would add the amount depending on the activeplayer. to correct i added a method to call TargetZoneChooser::targetsZone( with a mSource...so that you can set the source card for the scan.
note: all test pass.
2nd, fixed a misunderstood line i added, i was aiming for the tc that triggered the event in trtargted....all tested passed, and i didn't manually test that change (SHAME ON ME!!!)...corrected it in the correct place now, where the event is sent.
3rd, trying to fix a broken alias class, this is a work in progress, i intend to fix this and then convert it to a keyword for draw replacement effects for 16.1(?) anyways, only thing ive left to figure out is telling it how to determine that the last stack ability is a "draw" ability. this class quit working ALONG time ago when the "addDraw" object was no longer used. the methods for card drawing changed and no one updated the alias class to use the new method, i imagine this is also what broke aladdins lamp originally(which the change of draw events and how card display is set up)
Angelic Chorus
Lavaborn Muse
Pestilence
Living Artifact
Hypnotic Specter
there is test for each of these.
btw living artifact hard code was wrong, it was allowing you to remove counters at any phase, the soft code is actually correct. updated living artifact test to the correct version in next rev
also fixed a case where "thatmuch" was never set, i now also store the amount on the source of the trigger as well.
added parsing to correct this bug,
cards which state "card from target players hand" should be coded "target(*|hand)" which allows targetting of any cards which are in a hand not just your hand.
|myhand)
|opponenthand)
|hand)
self explainitory.....
- fixed issue 595 (MaxCast not working). Root cause was the stupidest typo ever in the code (maxCost instead of maxCast...)
- fixed an issue with Storm mentioned by zethfox (was counting only spells played by current player)
- Moved "max lands per turn" rule outside of the code (yay!) Please be sure to update your Rules folder!
this(damaged)
added
targetchooser [damaged] status
added
targetchooser [controllerdamager]
targetchooser [opponentdamager]
basically checks for whos doing damage to who in a match per turn.
for "this card cant be the target of green spells or abilities" style cards.
added poisoned status trigger for attacking, so far its the only place this is checked. we will see what the next set does with this keyword
added new card discriptor [share!variable!]
the variables for this so far are
name <---eradicate effect targetting
color <--radiance effect targetting
types <--the plague cycles
it is important to note that a target IS REQUIRED before this, meaning it has to be used below a target= or after the targetting of an && ability...otherwise it will simply default to the source cards variables.
this solution provides a much more generic version without sacrificing the effectiveness of the eradicate set which was limited only to eradicate style cards(which ALSO required a target)
coding exsample
[card]
name=Eradicate
target=creature[-black]
auto=all(*[share!name!]|targetcontrollerhand) moveto(exile)
auto=all(*[share!name!]|targetcontrollerlibrary) moveto(exile)
auto=all(*[share!name!]|targetcontrollergraveyard)moveto(exile)
auto=all(*[share!name!]|targetcontrollerbattlefield) moveto(exile)
mana={2}{b}{b}
type=sorcery
[/card]
you will notice something strange above, for this change to work i had to fix the bug with "targetcontrollerBLAH" zone targetting...tho my fix was a patchwork fix, it does indeed provide the targets controller...we need to find the root cause of why initToZone is not returning the correct "target" variable to this function.
if the source does not have a target it defaults to source.
before it there was no target, which there never is a correct target returned as noted by the fact that 0 cards exist with targetcontroller zone targetting in WAGIC however theres a considerably large card pool for this.
enjoy :)
docs going to kill me for this lol.
ok i WAS going to write a full change log with code exsamples ect, but since im rushed you will get the short version of this log.
first bug fixes, and there were many,
indestructible creature bug fixed
halimar execavator *embearessing youtube video" bug is fixed
token text now displays source name and tokens abilities
fixed a card view null pointer in an iterator when code used combinations of foreach and aslongas with CD.
epic struggle bug fixed, aslongas was only parsing one space to the right of the operator.
extra cost containing targetting fixed, cards can now have multiple extra cost in all mana...this includes giving a card 2 targeted sacrifices as its main cost.
angelic chorus bug fixed, the card will be soft coded now.
and many other minor bugs fixed, hard to remember all which were fixed.
now, new abilities = words
"legendarylandwalk",
"desertlandwalk",
"snowforestlandwalk",
"snowplainslandwalk",
"snowmountainlandwalk",
"snowislandlandwalk",
"snowswamplandwalk",
"snowlandwalk",
"nonbasiclandwalk",
"strong",//cant be blocked by creature with less power
"weak",//cant block creatures with more power
"phasing",
all true landwalks will now be supported.
new cost types:
morph which is coded as follows
[card]
name=Bloodstoke Howler
facedown={3}
autofacedown={6}{R}:morph
autofaceup=3/0 all(beast|mybattlefield))
text=Morph {6}{R} (You may cast this face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.) -- When Bloodstoke Howler is turned
face up, Beast creatures you control get +3/+0 until end of turn.
mana={5}{R}
type=Creature
subtype=Beast
power=3
toughness=4
[/card]
you will notice new auto lines autofaceup and autofacedown
these are abilities the cards will have when theyre in that state.
the cost is coded as
facedown={cost}
when a card is faced up it gains auto= lines also.
tho is played normally it will NOT gain autofaceup=lines
card restrictions:
cards can now have restrictions placed on them the restrictions are.
all previous restrictions usable in activated abilities
with the follow additions
control two or more vampires
control less creatures
control snow land
casted a spell
one of a kind
fourth turn
before battle damage
after battle
during battle
[card]
name=Blood Frenzy
target=creature[attacking;blocking]
restriction=before battle damage
auto=4/0
auto=treason
text=Cast Blood Frenzy only before the combat damage step. -- Target attacking or blocking creature gets +4/+0 until end of turn. Destroy that creature
at the beginning of the next end step.
mana={1}{R}
type=Instant
[/card]
other cost now can have specail restrictions also:
otherrestriction=mytypemin:1 type(swamp),opponenttypemin:1 opponenttype(plains)
these are minimums required inplay of a type
it can be just you, or you and opponent or just opponent
you can also use the words "more" and "less" and * to compare the 2 players fields.
[card]
name=Cho-Arrim Legate
abilities=protection from black
other={0}
otherrestriction=mytypemin:1 type(swamp) , opponenttypemin:1 opponenttype(plains)
text=Protection from black -- If an opponent controls a Swamp and you control a Plains, you may cast Cho-Arrim Legate without paying its mana cost.
mana={2}{W}
type=Creature
subtype=Human Soldier
power=1
toughness=2
[/card]
activated ability gained a new restriction "opponentturnonly"
variables will now be recalculated during the resolve of the major abilities to produce the most current number.
{x}:draw:x <----
new number variables words:
using draw as an exsample
draw:auras <--auras on a creature
draw:type:ally <---counts the allys in your field. self explanitory
draw:thatmuch <--mostly a triggered effects number.
when you take damage draw that much
draw:lifelost
draw:oplifelost
these return the value of the life lost that turn.
new TRIGGER restricitions
sourcenottap
sourceTap
foelostthree<--card cycle uses opponent lost life
foelosttwo<--same as above
once<--this trigger will only ever trigger one time and never again.
new card discriptor words
[multicolor]
[leveler]
[enchanted]
[blackandgreen]
[blackandwhite]
[redandblue]
[blueandgreen]
[redandwhite]
CD will now recalculate the number again on resolve
meaning {x}:target(CreatureTargetChooser[manacost <=x]) will work, with an added bonus {x}:target(CreatureTargetChooser[manacost <=any word variable])
new this(:
this(tapped)<--for strange case cards.
this(untapped)
this(auras)
new MTGAbility keywords
(blink)
(blink)forsrc <--stay blinked while source inplay
hand(blink <---adding hand to the front makes it target hand.
livingweapon
this is an extension of token, simple attach the words "livingweapon" to the front of token( and it will autoamtically token that and attach the card to it.
token( gained:
"targetcontroller" targetting.
"battleready" if put in the tokens abilities it will be a attacker and tapped as it is entering play.
phaseout <--self explanitory
spiritlink <--stacking lifelink style effect that benifits the OWNER of the card.
combatspiritlink same as above.
stacking flanking, requires 2 abilities unfortunately
[card]
name=Agility
target=creature

added poisoned status, tho not complete since MBS hasnt spoiled enough cards to see where this variable will be used.
taught ai how to counter spell
improved ai, it will now cast instants during interupts and during your turn.
previously ai treated instant cards the same as it treated sorceries, which was not fair to the ai.
im sure there is some messed items, but the rev directly before this one had formatting in the code that created hundreds of conflicts with this one, so i had to dig this info out of red and green sections.
cards and test are coming soon, i ask PLEASE do not alter these new additions until the test are commited.
im commiting without the test because instead of allowing me to proceed with my beta test period, there are some that wish to rush me into a commit. if you do not like this commit revert it, i absolutely on no grounds give permission to recommit afterwards. and i will not recommit if a revert is called.
