added
"whenever a creature enters the battlefield you may pay {1}, if you do gain one life"
conditional may pay({cost}) effect
this version is a super type ability, and can only be used in certain combos.
to nest you will need to use it in its subtype pay[[{cost}]] effect
pay keyword can have sideeffects coded as follows
pay[[{1}]] life:1?life:-1
pay one mana and gain 1 life, if you dont then you lose one life. notice no space between the abilities and the question mark.
added castcard()
a method to cast a targeted card, this contains the following subkeywords which can be used in combinations
(normal)
(restricted)
(copied)
(noevent)
castcard(restricted copied noevent) for example will cast a card that is a copy or the spell without sending a cast event only when the spell is castable.
"normal" subkeyword cast the actual spell, not a copy.
extended the use of exiledeath to everyzone, any card going from any zone to graveyard is placed in exile if it has exiledeath.
limited swipe left to open hand only when hand is closed view.
"moveto(" can now be named.
i choose to use other cost instead of creating a brand new cost type.
otherrestriction determines if the card is the miracle for the turn.
[card]
name=Devastation Tide
auto=all(*[-land]) moveto(ownerhand)
other={1}{u} name(Miracle)
otherrestriction=miracle
text=Return all nonland permanents to their owners' hands. -- Miracle {1}{U} (You may cast this card for its miracle cost when you draw it if it's the first card you drew this turn.)
mana={3}{U}{U}
type=Sorcery
[/card]
example:
[card]
name=AEther Burst
target=<plusonetype:AEther Burst:graveyard>creature|battlefield
auto=moveto(ownerhand)
text=Return up to X target creatures to their owners' hands, where X is one plus the number of cards named AEther Burst in all graveyards as you cast AEther Burst.
mana={1}{U}
type=Instant
[/card]
[card]
name=Vitalizing Cascade
auto=life:Xplusthree
text=You gain X plus 3 life.
mana={X}{G}{W}
type=Instant
[/card]
what this means is that if a player so choose, they can list the sets 3 letter code in the en.txt as follows
BOK=betrayers of kamikawa
it will now list the names either as the 3 letter code if thier is no entry, or as whatever you call it in the lang->en.txt file.
example usage:
auto=life:thriceX
auto=@damaged(player):life:twicethatmuch
auto=life:twicetype:creature:mybattlefield
so to code cards like Debt to the Deathless
[card]
name=Debt to the Deathless
auto=@lifeloss(opponent):life:thatmuch controller
auto=life:-twiceX opponent
text=Each opponent loses two times X life. You gain life equal to the life lost this way.
mana={X}{W}{W}{B}{B}
type=Sorcery
[/card]
