Forge Beta: 03-09-2012 ver 1.2.5 rev 14663

[jeffwadsworth]

Read the text.

If a card has Shroud, it cannot be the target of spells or abilities. Blastoderm has Shroud, so a card like Retraced Image won't and can't work on it.

It may be something simple, but this one is definitely not a bug.

It is in fact a bug. Retraced image doesn't target the card so should work.

This worked perfectly when I scripted it before. Definitely not working now. I will check it out.

*Edit: I see the problem. There was a misplaced boolean check that worked fine the first check through, but failed everytime after.

Fixed. Thanks for the report.

One odd thing: the Human and AI avatars keep getting swapped each time I restart Forge.

[edessa]

Unfortunatelly thats true, every time I star forge the avatars change.

In quest mode:

30 life starts out as 20 in the first game of a match.

Also, I have r14666 on my beta. I dl'ed it yesterday.

Yeah, that is one of those dev things that drive us to distraction.

I used Eclipse to update my local copy and added some reading material to the changes.txt file. At that point the SVN revision number was set at 14663.

I then start a script which performs a build and release. This process updates the pom file found on the SVN which in turn increase the rev number to 14666.

People may perform merges to the SVN while my script is running and this can inflate the SVN revision number. I can not predict ahead of time what the true SVN revision number will be. It is usually three greater than what the changes.txt file states.

Granted, this is far more detail than most people will be interested in.

There has to be a way to lock the SVN while you run the script...

[Niv-Mizzet]

The trigger on Oath of Druids is supposed to be a targeted ability. I had Leyline of Sanctity out so the computer shouldn't have been able to trigger Oath on me, but it could.

[timmermac]

I currently have my quest preferences set to start at 1 pack, with additional packs added every 25 wins. However, once I got to 20 wins - I'm 22-20 right now - the only thing in the shop is basic and snow land. The lack of cards other than basic and snow land doesn't concern me, as I have the preferences set that way. I am, however, wondering what happened to the packs that are supposed to be there.

It might be possible.

I control Pure Reflection and get this exception when I cast Quag Vampires:

Looks like an issue with the Multikicker ability on Quag Vampires in relation to Pure Reflection, on a guess. Reading the card text on both cards, it looks like the client couldn't decide something and booted you out. Questions:

Did you use the multikicker ability on Quag Vampires?
What other creatures/enchantments were out on the field?

The first question is the key, as Pure Reflection should spit out a 1/1 token based on casting cost of the Quag Vampires. However, with the Multikicker ability, it could be 3/3, 5/5 or 7/7 (depending on the mana used to kick it.) Hmmm, I'll let the programmers sort this one out.

[krevett]

Hi, I've added some precons for my quest that are set to be unlocked after 50 or more wins but I can start a new quest with any of the precon even those that are locked in the shop at the beginning

[atar]

Nice job dev team and kudos for the result!I seem to have an odd bug:The chalenges are a little messed up,meaning that the ai doesn't start with any cards in the battlefield (for example,at the collorless dungeon challenge the ai doesn't start with the 3 aeon hubs).Any tip?

[friarsol]

This is incorrect. Multikicker does not change the CMC of the Vampires. It's not the same as a spell like Fireball, where the X is different while it's on the stack.

[Vernon]

OK. The java client might be reading that as if the kicker was applied to the Pure Reflection, though. Granted, I'm not good with programming java, but.... it might a coding issue inside the client that's causing it? I defer to you, Sol. I'm just reading the crash report above...
