- deprecated the following keywords (see list below for new usage)
-- cantcreaturecast => auto=maxCast(creature)0
-- cantspellcast => auto=maxCast(*)0
-- onlyonecast => auto=maxCast(*)1
-- bothcantcast => auto=maxCast(*)0 auto=maxCast(*)0 opponent
-- bothnocreature => auto=maxCast(creature)0 auto=maxCast(creature)0 opponent
-- oneboth => auto=maxCast(*)1 auto=maxCast(*)1 opponent
Strangely enough, I couldn't find most of these keywords in mtg.txt?
I also removed variables such as "spellCastedThisTurn" and stuff like that... now if you want to know how many spells were cast in one turn by a given player, use player->game->stack->seenThisTurn("*").
seenThisTurn can take a string representing a TargetChooser, or better, a TargetChooser.
I can't guarantee I didn't break anything, but the test suite passes and the AI seems to run ok
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
auto=teach(creature) flanker
auto=teach(creature) flanking
text=Enchant creature -- Enchanted creature gets +1/+1 and has flanking. (Whenever a creature without flanking blocks this creature, the blocking
creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn.)
mana={1}{R}
type=Enchantment
subtype=Aura
[/card]
removeallcounters(number/number,name)
removes all counters of the type from a card, can all be
"all"
vampire hexmage effect.
added new tools for transforms
,setpower=number
,settoughness=number
removetypes
morph
autofacedown={0}:morph
eradicate <---same as the card name.
cumulativeupcost[ <--self explanitory
upcostmulti[ <--an upcost that will resolve with a && ability
phaseaction[ phase name ] ability
an ability that will trigger on the stated phase name.
also support for phaseactionmulti[
new triggers added:
@vampired( <--sengir vampire effect
@targeted(
@lifeloss(
@lifed(
add a special ability builder called dynamicability
it acts alot like a choose your own adventure book
dynamicability<! variable 1, variable 2, variable 3,variable 4!> optional ability targetting the original target.
variable list 1:
this is the primary amount source
source
mytgt
myself
myfoe
variable list 2:
this is the variable we're after, or the amount
power
toughness
manacost
colors
age
charge
oneonecounters
thatmuch
variable list 3:
this is the main effect
strike
draw
lifeloss
lifegain
pumppow
pumptough
pumpboth
deplete
countersoneone
variable list 4:
how it will do this effect to.
itself
eachother
targetcontroller
targetopponent
tosrc
srccontroller
srcopponent
the best way to explain its usage is to look at cards coded with this ability. or experiment with combinations.
new gameoption
First turn player:player, opponent, random
who takes the first turn
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.
finishing up my reformatting of the source from November/December following the guidelines that were posted.
some extra things I added:
* Any empty virtual declarations were kept to one line.
* Enums were split up into separate lines to promote uniformity across all headers. ( each header file had a different style for enums)
* created three new utility functions that return a vector of matching abilities, colors and types
* migrated all activated ability impl into AllAbilities.cpp. Perhaps we could break AllAbilities up into separate impl files for manageability?
One for Activated abilities, another for triggers,etc
(I did a cursory check to make sure chinese still displays correctly - at a glance, I'm seeing what looks correct to someone who doesn't read the language :) )
- {z} cost becomes l2e (Library To Exile)
- {q} cost becomes s2l (Send to Library) <- from any place to Library
- subtypes leyline, controllsershroud, playershroud become ability keywords
The engine always handled it as "REGENERATE" and thus had to be renamed. Its new name is "CANTREGEN". It has been tested excessively by me and Zethfox. Now all cards with the former "cantregenerate" work as they should.
- I also added a test for "CANTREGEN" (Incinerate).
- Added the new keyword "FOG" (by Zethfox).
This is an equivalent for "PREVENTALLCOMBATDAMAGE", which only worked for instants and sorceries. "Fog" works only for permanents and is used in combination with the newly introduced parameter "ONESHOT"!
- I also added 2 tests for "FOG" (Maze of Ith, Spore Frog).
Both additions lead to several issue fixes:
Fixed issue286.
Fixed issue328.
Fixed issue332.
Fixed issue416.
- Removed Demonic Torment, Gaseous Form, General's Kabuto, Sandskin. Those cards never worked and could even not be fixed with "FOG".
- Optimized the code of the dragon-lair land-cycle from PLS and added 2 tests for them.
- Added 8 successfully tested cards. Card list -> first comment.
- Removed some none working cards from mtg.txt
- Added the "unofficial" grade
- Added a system to give a grade to an entire file, avoids reading the file any further if not necessary
- Added Zeth's addons to the primitives folder, with a grade of "Unofficial"
- IMPORTANT: Legendary is not an ability anymore, creating cards with super types should be much more natural. You can now say "type=Snow Land", and stuff like that. No backward compatibility!!!
I'm fairly certain this works as intended, cards with nofizzle "can be targeted by spells that try to counter it (such as Cancel). Those spells will resolve, but the part of their effect that would counter [it] won't do anything. Any other effects those spells have will work as normal."
Still, I don't work much with card logic, so it's possible this has some kind of unintended side effect.
- Code cleanup
- fix issue 142 . This will lead to other issues for some cards. These issues can be fixed by using targetcontroller/controller...etc
- Added a few cards
-fixed a memory leak
- Added P02 and PTK
- New way to create tokens in the parser, much more flexible, see the Hive in RV. Tokens can now be written as other cards, with a rarity of "T". I suggest their id to be the negative value of the card that generates them when possible. Naming convention for images is the same as before: a negative id such as -1138 will need a [id]t.jpg image (1138t.jpg). Positive ids work as "normal" pictures
* Metadata is currently only used in exactly one place: the set's "Pretty Name" is displayed when the set is first unlocked.
* WGuiImage now has a function to set scaling.
* The horsemanship ability literally required only one line of code, and could add an additional ~36 cards to Dr. Solomat's PT3 set. It seems functional, but someone please double check it anyways, as I've not worked with much of the actual game code yet.
Added ability DOESNOTUNTAP , see _cards.dat from 10E (Colossus of sardia, dehydratation). Test suite OK. The ability does not work with enchant creature (as for protection from...) So Dehydratation is hardcoded (can be aliased if necessary) Small bug with dehydratation, will untap creature when cast... WHY ? Any Idea/Solution welcome...
Updated the deplete function. You can use deplete in instant and sorcery (not tested)
Updated rampage (add an issue with the last parameter and the annulation of the bonuses at end of turn) should be resolved now (not tested).
Added Basilik from 10E and also lavaborn (not tested yet), should try to do a more generic basilik (abomination, cockatrice, basilik, all have the same abilities but different criteria for the “type” of creature that would be or not be affected.
Also added Elvish promenade from LRW (this one is fun ;D)
