Formal Request Thread

[thefiremind]

How can Total War be made? Can we check for summoning sickness?

Checking for summoning sickness of the card itself is easy, checking other cards is hard because you would need to save the information somewhere.

I tried to code Eon Hub like this:
then I made a deck with Eon Hub and Sulfuric Vortex, and it seems to work!
Actually, in my test I was using BEGINNING_OF_STEP, but that probably was making it trigger twice (not that it matters much).

Yes, when I tell you, I suddenly realized that maybe I think too much, I have successfully coded Stonehorn Dignitary, perhaps you gave me inspiration.
This is a really great news, I'm going to try Time Stop, we will get more fun this year.

anyone know why PutTokensOntoBattlefieldTappedAndAttacking doesn't work? I made Giest but angel never attacks.

I coded Kessig Cagebreakers recently and it works. Remember that you need the player that you want to attack as last parameter:

Code: Select all

MTG():PutTokensOntoBattlefieldTappedAndAttacking( "TOKEN_FILENAME", number_of_tokens, EffectController(), pointer_to_the_player )

which doesn't need to be the same player attacked by the Geist, so you need to ask which opponent you want to attack with the Angel before creating it.

Thank You, but quick question what if the player has shroud

Also when you guys get the chance I would love to see how storm and split second work in D14

Thank You, but quick question what if the player has shroud

DotP2014 makes a clear distinction: if you use the TARGET block, then you are targetting (and shroud prevents that); if you just set the filter and then call ChooseItem/ChooseItems, then you are not targetting.

Also when you guys get the chance I would love to see how storm and split second work in D14

Storm needs to use the new Interrogation object because it seems that the register that was keeping track of all the played spells isn't there anymore. I guess this should work:

Flip cards are always a pain, so that one's kinda a if someone finds a really easy way to do it with the new framework of Magic 2014.

[NEMESiS]

How can Total War be made? Can we check for summoning sickness?

Checking for summoning sickness of the card itself is easy, checking other cards is hard because you would need to save the information somewhere.

Well, I don't have a clue... can someone make it if they can?

[drleg3nd]

is this the right place to request cards ? all I see is coding lol

[gorem2k]

I think Master Necro made this thread for reference in simplifying code mechanics. I thought about an idea this morning; would be nice if thefiremind web generator would include them when there's a need for it. this would save us time. but then, the tool is already priceless.

I don't know how to do flip cards. Don't even know where to begin with them. But I got the others working for you. At least, they appear to be working. The Imposing Sovereign is slightly messed up. I couldn't get it to make them enter the battlefield tapped, so it taps them as soon as then enter. This should really only be a problem rarely, possibly creatures with haste and tap abilities. Anyway, if I manage to get it fixed, I'll post it. But I've worked on that in particular far too long haha.

I don't know how to make a wad file with just cards and have them be usable, so you'll need to do that bit (or, as I did, stick them in another working wad and repack it...).

I've got a few requests of my own. I'm trying to make a deck (one that I actually own), but I've found a few cards that I can't figure out. I got all the rest. I don't necessarily need the cards done, just some advice on HOW to do them would be amazing

Mystic Genesis - I can't quite get it to work. It makes the token, but I can't get it to change the token's power and toughness.

Cool thread. At least a couple of the functions I needed were already here. One question and some semi-related help though;

Has anyone made a Grandeur card as of yet?

I tried to make Korlash, Heir to Blackblade and I am obviously failing at something since it (a) allows me to discard any card from my hand and (b) acts like it is activating an ability, but nothing happens when it resolves.

I remember I jacked the code from Nature's Lore for the Swamp-finding ability, but apprently I did it wrong.

On an unrelated note, I was going to try to make Cabal Coffers but I am unsure of how to approach that one. Is there a better way to do this in D14 or am I going to have to make mana tokens to get it to work?
