first, i added a timer to hide the big card after 5 secs or until a movement is registered.
2nd, removed the advancing of phases with flick up.
3rd added a flick left to "show/hide hand"
4th, fixed an error in the logic of "getDifficulty" part of the reason optimizedhand was not working.
finally, unrefactored the checks of optimized hand, it was FAR to difficult to see what was actually happening the way it was coded.
optimizedhand is finally working again,
toggledifficulty and optimizedhand will again trigger and greatly improve ai vs player matches
opponentpoolsave(
mypoolsave(
ex:Upwelling
added a tag for mana, doesntempty
add{g}{g}{g} doesntempty
what this does is make THAT mana remain in the pool until end of turn.
ex:
Sakura-Tribe Springcaller
added
cantbeblockerof(this)<--this = the card who owns the ability.
cantbeblockerof(targetchooser) <--the target cant block anything targetable by this targetchooser.
spin engine and similar will use cantbeblockerof(this).
others were done with a workaround, which i hope will be updated soon.
"donothing"
this is to avoid using powerandtoughness 0/0 ability to mean "do nothing"
old code
[card]
name=Inquisition
target=player
auto=target(*|targetedpersonshand) 0/0
auto=foreach(*[white]|targetedpersonshand) damage:1 targetedplayer
text=Target player reveals his or her hand. Inquisition deals damage to that player equal to the number of white cards in his or her hand.
mana={2}{B}
type=Sorcery
[/card]
new code
[card]
name=Inquisition
target=player
auto=target(*|targetedpersonshand) donothing
auto=foreach(*[white]|targetedpersonshand) damage:1 targetedplayer
text=Target player reveals his or her hand. Inquisition deals damage to that player equal to the number of white cards in his or her hand.
mana={2}{B}
type=Sorcery
[/card]
auto=choice damage:1 target(creature) restriction{type(creature[blue])~morethan~1}
this choice menu will only appear is there is more than one blue creature inplay
In details:
- I removed my player swap idea, it caused tons of issues with randoms
- instead I simply keep both peer on the exact same game and added one single parameter allowing to configure the view on the game. So, each peer is rendering the same game (gameObserver class) from a different player point of view (DuelLayers and related classes).
- a lot of gui stuff are missing to prevent user forbidden interactions but it works fine on Windows
Fixes in GameObserver serialization/deserialization code
Fixes in JNetwork and JSocket on windows
Various code cleanup (currentGamePhase access in particular)
Updated GUI code to re-enable a basic network GUI
Activated threaded tests on Windows. It uses 4 threads by default.
auto=replacedraw choice damage:2
auto=replacedraw choice draw:2 noreplace
notice noreplace exempts the draw from sending a draw event. draw events and drawn events are seperate events.
added dredge and it's rules.
[card]
name=Dakmor Salvage
auto=tap
auto={t}:add{b}
dredge=dredge(2)
text=Dakmor Salvage enters the battlefield tapped. -- {T}: Add {B} to your mana pool. -- Dredge 2 (If you would draw a card, instead you may put exactly two cards from the top of your library into your graveyard. If you do, return this card from your graveyard to your hand. Otherwise, draw a card.)
type=Land
[/card]
Added variable "controllerturn", "opponentturn" -> returns integer value if its your turn then 1 if not then 0.
ex. use
restriction=during my turn
otherrestriction=during opponent turn
auto=this(variable{controllerturn}) lord(creature|mybattlefield) 8/0
auto=this(variable{opponentturn}) lord(creature|mybattlefield) 0/8
paid(blah)
auto=if paid(alternative) then damage:3 target(creature)
auto=if paid(alternative) then life:10 target(player)
auto=ifnot paid(alternative) then damage:3 controller
auto=ifnot paid(alternative) then life:4 opponent
it can be used any place a restriction can be used.
rearranged the constants for the payment type keywords to match the order we int the alternatePayment array on a card, added keywords for the remaining payment types,
"notpaid",
"paidmana",
the 2 above pretain to paying the real manacost of a card
it checks the mana={1} cost line and is not joined to the other types.
"kicker",
"alternative",
"buyback",
"flashback",
"retrace",
"facedown",
"suspended"
note: all test pass in this revision.
this can also be used for "equipped creature has unattach and blah" cards using
auto=teach(creature) {unattach}:blah
also corrected a long standing guiupdating issue. a long long time ago a replace was removed from GuiPlay::Update in hopes to increase performance no amount of performance increase is worth having cards not updating thier position after an event recieve happens. this means curse will finally go to the correctly choosen players battlefield, equipment will no longer just linger after its target dies, auras won't stay on battlefield after a card is exiled. ect. no preformance decrease noticed, if anyone else notices one let me know.
this should allow players to code cards with the detain ability of rtr correctly, as well as a handful of similar cards in the unsupported text.
detain is coded
auto={1}{t}:target(creature|opponentBattlefield) transforms((Detained,newability[cantattack],newability[cantblock],newability[noactivatedability])) uynt
enjoy
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.
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.
* updated build tools to have core files zip naming scheme be based on version information contained in build.number.properties
* added new python library to allow reading java property files, remember to add the library to your PYTHONPATH before executing the python script otherwise the script will fail.
