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.
- 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
fixed a compiler warning in SimplePopup in the constructor declaration
===DECK Editor changes ===
Added two touch buttons , one for "Sell Card", the other to switch between Deck and Collection.
changed swipe Left/Right to rotate card collection; removing the previous action which was to swap between deck/collection viewing
Note: GameStateDeckViewer isn't a JGuiController so can't leverage off the mButtons vector. Thus, the buttons have to be handled by this class separately. (setButtonState, userPressedButton)
- Modified DuelLayers to not use a global MTGPhaseGame instance anymore
- Moved the reset of currentActionCard out of the ActionLayer render function : that fixes the remaing problematic tests in the multithreaded testsuite
- Added a method in ActionLayer converting a card ability into a menu index
- Used this new method in the game observer to log correctly AI ability actions
- Added a DumpAssert method in the game observer, it can be used to dump the game and assert in order to easy crash reproduction
- Cleaned up TargetList properties access
- Added an optimisation in GuiMana to not compute update code if the rendering is not used (multi-threaded mode)
- Added a deadlock detection in the test AI vs AI multithreaded mode
- Fixed minor bugs in test AI vs AI multithreaded mode
- Added a games/second counter in the test AI vs AI rendering
- Added an "ACTION_LOGGING_TESTING" mode in the gameObserver. When this is defined, the game reloads itself in every update. I want to use that to track undo problems. Be aware that it kills performances and crashes with the testsuite if you want to activate it.
- Various cleanup/refactor of the game observer.
- Added a gameObserver == operator to compare two games
- Added player mode to the player serialization
- Added a multi-threaded mode to AI_CHANGE_TESTING. For the moment it's only useable with Qt. If you want to use it without, just defined a thread_count higher than 1.
- Refactored random generator class to use list intead of queue
- Defined a specific type for interrupt decision instead of int
- Modified undo to stop at "next phase" action
- Added "muligan" and "force library shuffling" to the list of logged action
- Fixed random logging
- Fixed double logging of actions
- Merged all the "next game" functions into a single one
- Created a PlayerType type instead of using int
- Moved the player loading code into the GameObserver and out of GameStateDuel to avoid having player references in both and simplify the initialization and termination. Tweeked a bit the humanplayer class to be able to do that.
- Added a "load" menu available in testsuite mode, I use that to load problematique game. To use it, just copy-paste a game from the traces into Res/test/game/timetwister.txt. Game in traces starts by "rvalues:..." and ends by "[end]"
- Added some untested and commented out code in GuiCombat to use the mouse/touch to setup the damage on the blockers
- Broke the network game ... hoh well, I'll repair it when everything else works !!
- various code cleanup and compilation fixes on Linux
- Added an undo menu using this code (beware, it's still very very alpha).
- Removed various warning
- Cleaned up avatar loading
- Added full random lists load/save including the deck shuffling (not sure if I could not replace that with seed load/save)
- Moved momir and Co rules configuration out of GameStateDuel
- Create a GameType type to avoid mixing int everywhere
this fixes 2 crashes I found, the first, 2 color random mode would crash on load.
2nd, ai vs ai testing would randomly crash, this should fix that also.
I noticed 2 color random mode is now trying to search for it's rules and sometimes flashes for a brief moment "error cant read file" or something like that....I could not find the source of that, it doesn't cause it to crash however it causes it to take a sec longer to load, this is before this commit btw, so the issue is still there.
it was trying to load the rules, flashed the error then crashes...i fixed the crash but not the rules error.
please review, i might have left in useless stuff...
I also did notice something, the way we are creating players is kind of all over the place. imo this is bad, it made this conversation extra hard becuase you create one player over here, another type over there, the human over in this direction, back track and create another somewhere else...this needs to be taken into account for a refactor, all player creation should happen in the same function, and at the same times...
the reason these 2 crashes existed was becuase players were being created before "gameobserver" in some modes, and in other modes, no player would exist at the time game was creating to set the player. but we then later call the same function when we actually load the player using the method specific to a mode.
this just leads to headaches, I mean no offense, just a general observation i made when converting this players array. unfortunately that kind of refactor is just a little beyond my coding ability.
- also has a basic support for unlocks (does not yet allow people to create their own unlock rules, though...)
- Some things are still hardcoded and should progressively move to these rules files (such as Game Type, how random decks are created, etc...)
- Test suite doesn't foolishly ask you to choose a game mode (momir, etc...) anymore
- UPDATE YOUR Res/rules/ folder !!!
* changed how the avatar images are assigned since how they were before was incorrect. They are now assigned upon instantiation of the meta file. Not when the stats are calculated.
* Added new image for "Evil Twin". This is a horizontally flipped image of the original player avatar with a red background. Please feel free to edit the image.
* removed display of avatar image on menu items in deck selection that are not deck related. (ie "Cancel", "Back to Main Menu", etc) "New Deck" also does not have an image since no deck really exists yet so no avatar.
Issue: 622
- added 2 menus to wait for connection and wait for deck selection
- tested compilation on Qt Linux, Qt Windows and PSP
- deactivated everywhere (NETWORK_SUPPORT to activate).
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.
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:
http://www.mercs-eng.com/~hulud/index.php?2008/06/13/6-writing-a-good-makefile-for-a-c-project
- fixed a bug (crash if a card that had an ability until end of turn would be put into the graveyard before the end of the turn)
- Added a new game Mode : Random 1 or 2 color.
- no more 5 decks limitation for Player
- Player decks can be given a name/description the same way we do for the AI. No PSP Gui for that yet though, has to be done outside of Wagic (PSPWrite ?)
- Added CC Avatar
- Fixed a segfault bug when selling cards
- Added a few messages in the credits
- Show types of a card in "Alternate" display
- This update should get rid of all copyrighted contents
- It is now possible to have avatars associated to each Deck
- Added SFX
- Added Music files
- Possibility to choose your opponent
- Opponents' difficulty is measured according to their number of victories against a given deck
