Shandalar - Program Bugs

AEther Burst (and possibly other spells) cause 2 separate bugs (unreproducible)

 

One of them I've only seen AEther burst cause, it's complicated but has been happening dozens of times for me:

It tends to happen if AEther burst is the last (fully visible) card in your hand. If you then double click on another card in your hand the engine will prompt you about "fast effects". If you click "done" or press spacebar, the game will try to autocast Aether burst, pay mana, tap lands, and ask you to select targets for it. You can then cancel it, but mana stayes in the pool and is wasted.

Doesn't seem to happen if you don't have mana for AEther burst, pay mana costs for the other spell manually (I think), or if AEther burst isn't the bottom-most card in your hand. Strange (but quite tiresome after a while) bug.

EDIT: I've also had it happen with a few other things.

---

The other thing might not be an AEther burst only-thing, but it happens all the time with it:

If you try to cast AEther burst, when you just hover the mouse over a target (and not click anything) the engine will behave like you clicked on an invalid target and display the "illegal target (where)" message. You have to wait a second or so until it dissapears before you can click on the intended target and then it goes through.

I had that ineqplicably happen with a freshly flash-casted Ambush Viper, too, when I tried to assign it as a blocker.
