how to produce colorless mana?

[castled]

im so sorry to ask this… but i cannt find any scripts abou it anywhere among my program, it is nothing in cards like ANCIENT TOMB…

[castled]

someone wanna help me? or i have to give up to make some cards...

[IceManOnline]

Maybe try ReduceCost(X) or produce coloured mana instead...

[castled]

it doesn't work well...
and no code i can find in the cards already there, some cards with this ability has no script about colorless mana token in its xml...

There's no colorless mana in the game. It's not supported by the current engine of DOTP(all non basic lands). The workaround I used like wasteland, is to use a basic land type that is not used in the deck. but the problem is how to determine them if it's a nonbasic land. We use land type desert + basic for mana tokens, land type mine for determining non-basic, and land type mine + tribal + basic for those with colorless mana.

Now, you must edit some functions in order for some spell that affects lands to work correctly (Lots of viewing XML files ).

For now we can't add the Subtype non-basic for land because it's hard coded in the exe file unlike some others which you can add Subtypes (examples are the ally, eldrazi, trap, etc).

so i can't make some creature with the ability of "tap to produce colorless mana cout your artifact in hand"
and , how can ANCIENT TOMB produce 2 ? also it's just one land , isn't it ?

Andient Tomb is flagged as Mountain and Plains, I think.

[castled]

so, i guess it's mountain, because it can support to red spell Filing all itself.

and, i'm making other cards, it's 19 finished, i like to upload them this weekend, but some are still not work well.



like this, discard an artifact or discards 2

this, works well, but i really don't know how to disable it to "TRIGGERED" when tapped. because i'm not sure if an enchantment could effect when tapped.
