first as requested, kicker will now act like the other cost, offering a menu choice, heres the catch tho,
it was also thought up that we should maintain the "pay automatically" method of it as it feels more natural to some(even tho as per MTG rules its supposed to be a choice).
so here is what i did that i hope satisfies everyone, i added a new menu option under advanced tab..."kicker payment" with 2 setting, by defualt "always pay" but also an option to "always offer choice"...
2nd, minor tweaks to player avatar, every tme i saw it i was like "i need to do something about that", the avatar getting completely sucked into the corner just looked bad imo, so i about doubled the "inactive" size, so it looks a little more uniform with the opponents avatar. also move the library and grave icons just a thin hair to the left so they don't grossly overlap the players avatar as much when active, and increased the dark box theyre contained in my just a few pixels.
3rd, something else thats really bothered me to no end was that the title text of simple menus which display the cards name which owns the box was using small face font, which on pc was *barely* ok...but on psp(smaller devices) looks like white smears and dots. i changed it to share the font and size used inside the menubox itself, the end result is a lot nicer look...and alot easier to read on psp. now if only we can convince wololo that "spades" is alot like a lava lamp, cool at first, but *extremely* dated. the menu box should have a much slicker look, maybe rounded corners instead and lose the street light poles?
minor fix for phaseaction, becuase of the nature of this ability finding a happy safe medium without losing function is tough. hopefully this corrects it for good.
dropped cast methods menutext returns to lower case, for uniformity.
- Added a "PSP" compile-time define to clean up some compile time checks (replaced !WIN32 && !LINUX && !IOS with PSP)
-- Wil, I am aware that this is redundant with the PSPENV variable you introduced recently, I think we can clean that up easily
-- This looks like lots of changes, but most of the time I just moved some blocks here and there
-- tested on VC 2010, PSP, and a bit of NDK
-- I might have broken maemo, iOS, or Linux compilation, can you guys check?
- Fixed some warnings reported by NDK
- NDK still does not compile because recent boost additions (mutex, etc...) are apparently not supported
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.
Fixed. Had to clear the DeckManager whenever the player deck selection screen is displayed.
TODO: Need to implement a caching mechanism that caches the deck information based on deck selection and not a global one.
Currently DeckManager is effectively treating the DeckMetaData as global data.
*some minor tweaks to how deck information is managed/created
* 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
doTap now only serves a single purpose, to pass Tap variable to amanaproducer class so that "tappedformana" will trigger is a manaproducer was tapped for mana.
Turned on the threaded card fetching code for win/linux. PSP runs unthreaded. There's an easy toggle for switching which mode the app runs in: check out WResourceManager's constructor.
To fully appreciate the difference, try going into the deck editor without these changes, and use the arrow keys to navigate around (esp. up/down, as it loads 7 cards at a time). Then try again with these mods, you'll see the cards flicker briefly to the back card image and then load as they scroll onto the screen.
converted {t} into a extra cost. almost all original code to handle it outside remains intact, i plan on slowly migrating to just using the cost...but even just what i changed was a massive headache...anyways as a cost you wont ever have an random bugs where cards don't tap when the ability had {t} in its cost.
while i was at it, i added {q} untap cost.
also restricted it to _target->isInPlay() i read through all the cards which use this and none of them targetted a source that was not in play, or not being moved to inplay...
2nd, found out today that certain activated abilities can use either target click or object click, find the difference between the 2 was impossible, exsample, {2}{t}:foreach(blah) add{b}
{t}:foreach(blah) add{b}
so i figured i would need to remove those foreach mana abilities from the stack and add that same code for the bottom half...after noticing that both the reactToClick and reactToTargetClick did EXACTLY the same things after the "cost" portion...i decided to create a new virtual int activateAbility the activatedAbility parent. this way incase i need to change any further code in there, both functions resolve the same. This was a nice lesson in why copy paste coding is stupid. you think you solved the bug becuase it works in one function call, but you actually didnt.
first enum'ed the variables of ADynamic class to make them easier to understand at a glance.
2nd
added stack resolves for the abilities in ADynamic, sword to Plowshare bug fixed
3rd
removing foreach mana producers from the stack, didn't realize they used the top portion of activated ability resolves, also added event sending for @tappedformana for foreach manaproducers.
4th,
in getcoreability if we're getting the core of a foreach, send the foreach->ability itself otherwise we go one layer too deep and end up throwing off the core completely.
recoded altercost, its finally not using a dirty clean up.
this fixes the bug with it not effecting ai also and the bug where it was ineffective when combined with affinity creatures...
removed a aspect of the wolf class...
soft coded support for aspect of the wolf...using word variable subkeyword "halfup" and "halfdown"
it can go anywhere a parsable word vairable is stringing...i preffer the front of it...
these are Wparsedint subkeywords, not keywords you can use with standard abilities...
its meant to return half the varible rounds up, or down...
fixed player not losing with cantlifelose when they have 10 or more poison...the player should die.
reworked taplandformana, i send the main card as a target now, check against the cost if its affordable...anyways, i discussed this bool function a while back with devs and wololo saw the same issues i saw in it...he then removed it from being used as an if statement...i changed it back to an if statement with the new checks...we are either going to go back to a void, or go all the way bool, but not inbetween.
first, tweaked some ai checks a bit.
small changes.
2nd, i removed the following classes,
APowerToughnessModifierUntilEndOfTurn
APowerToughnessModifierUntilEOT
ADragonWhelp
i replaced these with soft coded support for dragon whelps "sideffects" of using a ability more then a certain number of times...
syntax limit^the effect you want^the use it triggers on.
replaced both powertoughnessueot classes with a class which falls more along the lines of how we handle ueot abilitys...PTInstant, creates the wrapper with the ability and adds it to the game, rather then that jumbled mess that was previous version.
added support for "phaseaction[" phase words "my" and "opponent" so you can denote which players phases it will happen on. by default it automatically happens on both players turns when the phase matches.
modified a few things in phaseaction class...which correct a memory leak which could be created if the source of the phaseaction is destroyed before the phase action resolved. rather then storing an ability which is left floating in memory if phaseaction is destroy...i took a much safer route of passing the string of the ability directly to the phaseaction class...and i build the ability right when it is being used instead. makes much more sense.
angry mob is now fully supported. yay to removing nasty ugly workarounds!!!! and i mean UGLY.
dragon whelp is now fully soft coded. added the 5 or six other cards which do similar effects.
