Planeswalker's Complementary Set [MOD]

[gorem2k]

maybe I will try again with fake planeswalkers sometimes but right now I'm working day and night on Ghostly Prison. it's a total mess, I can't even make the AI deal damage and I had to put all sorts of weird characteristics, an AddPlayScore, full of LinkedDC and other illogical stuff just to make it pay 2, and well, I'm dead tired of coding! I need a break but I will get back asap. this card is a nightmare I tell you!

here is what I'M talking about....

perhaps I should just grant abilities to each opponent creatures, something like pay 2 to attack with this creature.

If anybody can help me, I have a problem making an activated ability last forever until game is over.

I've found a way to register a value in a player compartment. (though I know I should create a specific compartment for that card) and I've set an 'active_anywhere' static block, but when the card goes to graveyard, the granted ability doesn't stay active. when I use ZONE_ANY instead of ZONE_ANYWHERE, the card gets multiple activated abilities!!!

did you try using "Forever" in DURATION tag?

Code: Select all

    <DURATION simple_duration="Forever" />

I've tried. Unfortunately, this didn't work here.

[thefiremind]

You can't set a duration for a static ability (some official cards do that but it's useless). The best way to do what you want is how I explained in the other topic:
viewtopic.php?f=63&t=11418#p128642
you didn't tell me exactly the effect that you wanted to make so I just answered your question... and on top of that, I made a mistake on the duration, it was supposed to be "FilteredCard() == nil", not "~= nil". This should work for Liliana's ultimate:

The reevaluates tag makes the filter act also on the swamps that will enter the battlefield later. It isn't something you usually want, but it's perfect for this scenario.

EDIT: Added the missing cleanup.

hey gorem ya decks does not show up in my game ? idk if someone shares the same prefix id as yours

I use 444, and I don't think it's an ID issue. maybe I forgot to add file Data_DLC_44_Content_Pack_Enabler.wad in zip ?? I don't remember

anyway, I will re-up a V5 soon as I just finished doing primary non-combat damage redirection. and also just finished doing a nice looking Vraska the Unseen !! would never been able to do without thefiremind UntilNextTurn function....

[gorem2k]

This should work for Liliana's ultimate:

It worked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But, I could activate more than once so my swamps had 2 x Add . should only be able to have one granted ability me think.

Nothing says that. Sure, it's not aesthetically pleasant, but I think it's correct.

[gorem2k]

I've found another problem. When I tap a swamp to get mana, (before activating an ability from planeswalker) ---> I can't activate an ability from that planeswalker. this is odd, I thought that the delayed trigger for setting duration would be triggered ONLY when I first activate the ultimate.

I forgot the cleanup in the delayed trigger, now it should be OK.

Hey gorem,

Does your mod come only as a package of all the decks in it, or can I download just the card core and art, for creating custom decks in RSN's Deck Builder? (My eyes are basically set on those lovely Planeswalkers )

Thanks anyway

[KENOG]

Oh, and could you give me some tips for successfully using the Planeswalker cards in game, without breaking their mechanism? What should I watch out for in decks I use them in? (Like avoid certain cards, with certain effects or something?)

right now, every cards that has "each" + "all" + "enchantments" keywords will have unwanted effects. also if an opponent has a planeswalker in play and you cast Slagstorm for example, you won't get the 3 damage if you target his planeswalker! you can still use them all but I've warned you!

[KENOG]

I played two duels yesterday midnight, with Liliana of The Dark Realms in my deck. The card was UBER-AWESOME!!! Fell in love with it. No issues.

However, I saw that you mentioned your new WIP Planeswalkers don't show as Legendary Enchantments in their text anymore. Would it be possible to update the released 4 Planeswalkers with that change? (Personally, having the cards show 'Legendary Enchantment' rather than 'Planeswalker' is the only major problem I have with the cards now, since I have OCD.)

I would be a hundred times happier if that could be implemented.

Regardless, thanks a ton for a successful Planeswalker card. You rock!!
