I really like playing the challenges. I just wish the game as a whole wored under vista better than it does. I usually get booted from the 1st challenge at the bitterblossom stage. If I make it past that the goblin deck usually murders me.
Thanks for the challenege 1 unlocks.

The sorting feature is great, but it also seems kinda messed up.
First of all the deck seems to be sorted alphabetically at the beginning of the match (not the starting hand though, but i.e. when i play sleigh of hand on turn 1 i always see the same two cards), and then my own deck is shuffled when the ai uses a fetchland (kinda stupid when you just played personal tutor).
Edit: I just drew a strak of cards in the middle of a game which were sorted, but starting with I (although there were still cards whith A in the deck)

de-activate "AlphabetizeDeck" (:0) in your config.txt till the feature is fixed.
remaining major bugs:
-blocked attacks on planeswalkers still remove their loyalty counters
-whenever you search your library for a land card and the choosen card is ontop of your library you don´t get the card.
-AI uses crop rotation to fetch creatures into play
-AI uses tinker to fetch creatures into play
-AI with genesis in the graveyard will crash the game
-gifts ungiven crashes the game
-if there are too many creatures in play(for the AI) the game will hang up.
-the spawnwrithe challenge usually hangs up once the ai reached 8 creatures.see above.
minor bugs:
-some cards do not use the autotargeting feature when they are listed.
-preeminent captain on the AI battlefield will cause an error (not crash)
-ai flaw:the ai doesn´t use qasali pridemage abbility
new bugs with this patch:
-ai shuffle effects shuffle your library instead (comes with the alphabetize deck feature)
-tutor effects that put the chosen card ontop of your library seldomly getting ignored
suggestions:
-a "cancel" function for activated planeswalkers
-platinum angel/ali from cairo/worship/moat/the abyss/smokestack/propaganda/bloodmoon/magus of the moon/loxodon warhammer
should get the highest priority for spot removal.

But Blood Moon and Magus of the Moon should get high priority only if they are actually harming AI a lot... maybe with some cutoff ratio of basic vs. nonbasic lands?

I also need this for any plansewalker bugs.
Finally, what cards are you using to tutor to the top that are not working?

Here is a duel savegame with shuffle issue :
http://rapidshare.com/files/278563883/bug.E1M.html
It's a duel with 2 deck filled of land fetch, it's the AI turn and will fetch a land with Windswepth Heath, making your library shuffle too.
Edit: in fact I noticed that only your deck will be shuffled lol
Edit: it's very random, or the AI library shuffling is very fast, but AI do this with Polluting Delta too (sometimes both deck are tt-ed, sometimes only your)

Thanks. I found a fix for this, but it makes baby Jesus cry. It probably only fixes the fetchlands, too, so if you see other shuffle effects going wacky after I upload the patch, let me know.stassy wrote:Here is a duel savegame with shuffle issue :

The fix is adding this code to the fetchlands. No, I don't know why this does anything.
- Code: Select all
gain_life(player, 0);

Hum in fact, after checking my library with Sort mode on, you get the shuffle animation but only AI library is really shuffled, mine was still the same...weird

I would like some clarification on the challenges so I know what is a bug and what is deliberate.
Epic challenge: cast only one creature/spell. Should this apply to the AI? Currently spells that have either/or mana cost (i.e. Figure of Destiny) can still be played.
Artifact challenge: artifact creatures = not allowed,
artifact lands = allowed
These challenges are really to play.
