Planeswalker's Complementary Set [MOD]

[gorem2k]

trying to code Guardian of the Gateless.

not promising so far.
I can't get CHARACTERISTIC_CAN_BLOCK_ANY_NUMBER_OF_CREATURES right.

Code: Select all

    <CONTINUOUS_ACTION layer="8">
    local characteristics = EffectSource():GetCurrentCharacteristics()
    characteristics:Bool_Set( CHARACTERISTIC_CAN_BLOCK_ANY_NUMBER_OF_CREATURES, 1 )
    </CONTINUOUS_ACTION>


and I'm not sure how to count creatures whose get blocked by him. I will put this on standby.

got it!

Selecting is a bit awkward and damage resolution too but it works... blocked 3 creatures and Guardian got 6/6. at last!

[thefiremind]

It's not 100% rule-compliant because you are basically triggering once for each creature, while the text seems to suggest that the trigger should be just one that counts all the creatures... but I don't know if there's a way to count the blocked creatures. If I find a way I'll let you know.

EDIT: I tried to count the blocked creatures through BLOCKS_A_CREATURE triggers and then pass the value to a BLOCKING trigger with the real ability, but no matter how I did that, it didn't work. I think that BLOCKING triggers are always issued before BLOCKS_A_CREATURE triggers, so we can't get some information from the second and pass it to the first.

it's a shame... at least Avatar of Hope, Palace Guard, etc, are easier to do.

I think your way is feasible, because I seem to succeed, I guess you just forgot priority or linked_ability_group.

I'm not sure this code is consistent with the way you said.

[thefiremind]

I think I made a lot of tries both with and without priority, but without getting it right, it seems. Now, the last improvement would be to save each blocked creature in the LinkedDC so that I can check how many of those creatures are still alive and blocked during resolution. But I'll work on it tomorrow, it's late here now.

[gorem2k]

I know this has been tried by many moders before, BUT
I was kinda bored today so I tried anyway.

here's my rough incomplete attempt at creating a Planeswalker.

the redirection damage doesn't work at all and should consider damage individually instead of a group damage. also the question should be asked by attacker. it's one of most difficult part. the rest seems fine. has same drawbacks as before (ie enchantment)

If you need some action, you should use replacement_query, rather than replacement_effect.
There's a problem, your Planeswalker is super type, I made Magmaquake, but it uses card type, in this case we need to recode all cards relate to Planeswalker, and we also need to solve, Magmaquake how to deals damage to Planeswalker.

I won't be able to finish this before 2015 or 2016. by that time, maybe we will have genuine Planeswalkers!

Also a problem, your Planeswalker is super type, I made Magmaquake, but it uses card type, in this case we need to recode all cards relate to Planeswalker.

if I use sub type Planeswalker it goes to graveyard when I cast it.. didn't find a workaround yet. I tried other things but card was invisible when starting a duel. only visible in Deck Manager

and yes, when I saw your Magmaquake, I wanted to code a Planeswalker!

[gorem2k]

first post updated with a planeswalker experimental deck. say whatever you want !!

[gorem2k]

made a few cards today,
would really apreciate if someone could check & fix them if necessary.

Darien, King of Kjeldor and Murder Investigation are wrong. the rest *seems* fine.

Darien's ability should be

Code: Select all

    <TRIGGER value="SOURCE_DEALS_DAMAGE_TO_PLAYER" damage_type="all">
    return SecondaryPlayer() == EffectController()
    </TRIGGER>
    <MAY />
    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    local numtokens = Damage():GetAmount()
    MTG():PutTokensOntoBattlefield( "TOKEN_SOLDIER_1_1_300248", numtokens, EffectController() )
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>

The triggers for damage aren't that many, if you need to be the one who takes the damage then you must still use the same trigger as the cards that need to deal damage to another player, with the difference that you'll need to be the SecondaryPlayer. And Damage():PreventAll() should be used only when the damage needs to be prevented (as the name suggests), otherwise you should use Damage():GetAmount(). The fact that Damage():PreventAll() also returns the damage amount is just an additional facility for when you need to prevent the damage and do something based on the amount.

On Murder Investigation you need to get the power from TriggerObject's Last Known Information, since TriggerObject already changed zone:

Code: Select all

local power = TriggerObjectLKI():GetCurrentCharacteristics():Power_Get()

Last thing, you are missing the AI_SIMPLIFIED_TARGETING on all activated abilities. This will probably make the AI play very slow when one of those cards is on the battlefield because every possible moment to activate the ability will be evaluated. I know that selecting the best AI_SIMPLIFIED_TARGETING blocks from other cards is not easy (I still don't know the exact difference between response_source="1" and response_target="1" for example), but you should try to find a similar ability on already existing cards and copy the AI_SIMPLIFIED_TARGETING blocks from there.

Some cards I made today.

Beast Within
Elder of Laurels
Slate of Ancestry
Search for Tomorrow (thanks to sumomole for Suspend)
Trepanation Blade

and of course TFM for Transform cards which I also use in my personal deck.

Slate of Ancestry asks you to discard your hand as a cost so it shouldn't happen at resolution. Since it's a cost that has no requirements whatsoever (it doesn't require to have at least a card to discard... or at least I think so ), a PLAY_TIME_ACTION is enough: just change the first RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION (the one with DiscardHand) into a PLAY_TIME_ACTION.

Elder of Laurels is also wrong: the number of creatures you control should be checked only once, while your code continuously updates the bonus if that number changes. Make the count in a RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION, then save it in an EffectDC register, and read it from there in the CONTINUOUS_ACTION. Take Craterhoof Behemoth as example.

Thanks! I knew that 'discard' was part of Slate cost but I didn't know how to.
I also noticed that my Trepanation Blade doesn't discard the revealed land.

So here's the 3 fixed card.
