The reevaluates="1" has no use on static abilities, it's used when the buff is temporary and you want it to affect also permanents that enter the battlefield later. The FE_CARD_INSTANCE filter is wrong, the card doesn't say "Other Werewolf creatures" so it should affect itself too.

Other than that, the code is correct: the bug is in the game. Somehow the AI can cheat on attacking/blocking restrictions, and with transform cards it always happens, I don't know why.

ok thx

im making the Innistrad Set Cards which werent made from any other modders. ive done most of them now, but havent testet them. when i know they all work properly im going to share it.
but i need some help with some harder cards so maybe someone can help.
the missing cards are:
Back from the Brink (almost impossible)
Divine Reckoning
Runic Repetition
Stitcher’s Apprentice
Stony Silence (impossible)
some help would be nice

Back from the Brink: It's probably not possible for a perfect card, but with a lot of work you might be able to approximate it.

I haven't tested any of these. Let me know if any need fixed and I'll take a look.

For Back from the Brink, the hardest part of coding this is correctly setting up the cost as you would need to go through all creatures in your graveyard, calculate the mana costs for all of them, limit those that can be selected based on what the user can actually pay at that time both for determining whether the ability can be activated and for targeting. As such this would probably have to be done as a lua filter on the target definition, but whether all the required operations can be done in a lua filter in a target definition is unknown. Someone who knows more about getting correct mana costs (such as someone who has worked on dual devotion) may be able to shed some more light on this.

For Runic Repetition while we may not be able to directly target exiled cards we could evaluate the exiled cards, put them into a chest and have the user pick from the chest. The issue will be limiting to only cards that have Flashback as you would need to implement some way to check if a card has that as there is no built in characteristic for Flashback (another situation where my custom characteristics could come in handy, but would require changing all cards with flashback to use them) or account for all possible cards with Flashback. As such this card may not be worth spending the time to code.

Is it possible for cards like Hall of the Bandit Lord or Generator Servant to be coded? If so, thank you! (Also, if someone can code them and posts them as singular cards, can someone also explain how to install singular cards? I figured out the .wads and all from the big updates but I have yet to figure out where to put singular cards...)

Unfortunately, you can't determine what mana was used to cast something like that, and there's no way to reserve mana for specific kinds of spells, so these two are unable to be coded.

They're not possible as far as I know, but it would probably be relatively easy to get them close. Set up a trigger for enters/leaves the battlefield, check if it's a colorless mana token (must be using Riiak's manual mana functions), once it enters the battlefield, as long as not ALL of the colorless tokens leave the battlefield, up to 1 creature can gain haste for Hall of the Bandit Lord and up to 2 for Generator Servant. Once all colorless mana tokens have left the battlefield, even if you could have had more creatures gain haste, end the effect.

As for making single cards work, assuming you have RiiakShiNal's deck builder, go to tools and click setup custom data folder. Now in your game folder, you'll have a folder called "DATA_DLC_DECK_BUILDER_CUSTOM". Go into the subfolders until you find "CARDS". The card xml files go in there. In the same folder as "CARDS" is "ART_ASSETTS", and in that is "ILLUSTRATIONS". Put the images in there.

If you don't have the xml files, just the text, then paste it into notepad, and save it as xml and CHANGE THE ENCODING to utf-8.

If the images you have aren't already in tdx format, then you need use gibbed tools and drop the image onto "Tdx Convert Compressed.bat" after cropping it to the proper size (sorry, don't remember the size).

That may be as close as you could possibly get them, and even then I'm not totally sure. Would have to try it and test it a lot.

Actually you can get even closer with Hall of the Bandit Lord and Generator Servant. Because you can get the chest that contains the actual mana tokens produced by those cards if you use Manual Mana using RSN_GetProducedTokenChest() (which you could then take the pointers and store them into a more useful spot like the LinkedDC()). As such you can use a pretrigger delayed triggered ability to check tokens leaving the battlefield to see if it was tapped and it is one of the pointers that was in the token chest and then using another delayed trigger check the the next spell/ability played. If it is an ability then you simply mark saying the mana wasn't used for it's special purpose. If it was a spell then check to see if it met the conditions, if not mark as not useful, otherwise store that creature spell so that upon entering the battlefield (using yet another delayed trigger) you can add the appropriate haste ability. Once all stored tokens from the retrieved chest are nil (meaning they have been used) then you no longer need to continue checking. Additionally, you would probably also want to check for spell/ability resolved to see if the mana left due to some other effect (such as something that forces mana pools to be emptied or a poorly constructed card which forces permanents to be tapped that doesn't take invisible tokens into account). As a spell or ability resolving would usually mean that the mana was tapped for some other reason.

Granted it is still not an optimal solution but it is closer (and more reliable) than the previously suggested method (because it checks to see which mana was actually used). You would of course have to do a good bit of testing to make sure that DotP triggers in an appropriate manner. For example if SPELL_PLAYED triggers before the mana leaves the battlefield then it will become harder to detect properly and get right (but should generally still be workable).

Riiak: what about the fact that we can't decide which mana gets used? For instance, say I tap a Generator Servant and an Orzhov Basilica, and I cast Adaptive Automaton and then Chronomaton. With an actual game, they'd both have haste. But depending on which sources of mana the game decides to use, yours wouldn't, would it? I mean, I'm not saying yours wouldn't possibly be more reliable, but I think I would handle fringe cases like that better. Also, I went ahead and coded it the way I was thinking because I didn't notice your post until I just popped in to post my code. Mine also has one limitation that I can easily spot: if you still have left-over colorless mana, you should be able to not give the creature haste (having saved that particular mana for some reason), but as it's coded, haste is granted in the order you cast creatures, even if you have enough colorless mana that you could theoretically have been saving it. (The only real situation I can think of where this could potentially be an issue is if you're hoarding mana with Kruphix, God of Horizons.)

This hasn't been tested or debugged. It's almost guaranteed not to work OOTB. But it should be a good starting point. Also, it doesn't include the sacrifice or pay 3 life bits of the costs.

Also, this is set to only work with 1 mana. See "oDC:Int_Set(0, 1)"? Change that to "oDC:Int_Set(0, 2)" for it to work with the other card (and also change all of the mana production to produce 2, of course).

Are Curse of Chaos and Spinerock Knoll codeable? If so, does anyone have them made?

Blue Ghost wrote:Are Curse of Chaos and Spinerock Knoll codeable?

For Curse of Chaos, the hard part is to take 2HG into account. I made some research and found this:
http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/magi ... tia-in-2hg
So, attacking the team counts as attacking each one of the players (no matter who's the cursed one), while the attackers count as separate players. I would make an ATTACKERS_DECLARED trigger with replacement_effect="1" where you cycle through all the attackers and find those who belong to each player: when you find at least one attacking the cursed player's team, you create a delayed STATE_BASED_EFFECTS trigger that lets the attacking player discard and draw. It will appear as if the ATTACKERS_DECLARED trigger were triggering once for each player, which is exactly what should happen. I'll post some code later if nobody else does.

Spinerock Knoll can be made by copying from another hideaway card (I remember sumomole having at least one in his mod), and checking the amount of damage done to an opponent can be made by copying the bloodthirst code, with the exception of using Count rather than Test:

Code: Select all

...
   if interrogation:Count(INTERROGATE_DAMAGE_DEALT, INTERROGATE_THIS_TURN, 7) == 7 then
      -- play the card
   end
...

Xander9009 wrote:Riiak: what about the fact that we can't decide which mana gets used? For instance, say I tap a Generator Servant and an Orzhov Basilica, and I cast Adaptive Automaton and then Chronomaton. With an actual game, they'd both have haste. But depending on which sources of mana the game decides to use, yours wouldn't, would it? I mean, I'm not saying yours wouldn't possibly be more reliable, but I think I would handle fringe cases like that better. Also, I went ahead and coded it the way I was thinking because I didn't notice your post until I just popped in to post my code. Mine also has one limitation that I can easily spot: if you still have left-over colorless mana, you should be able to not give the creature haste (having saved that particular mana for some reason), but as it's coded, haste is granted in the order you cast creatures, even if you have enough colorless mana that you could theoretically have been saving it. (The only real situation I can think of where this could potentially be an issue is if you're hoarding mana with Kruphix, God of Horizons.)

This hasn't been tested or debugged. It's almost [b]guaranteed[/i] not to work OOTB. But it should be a good starting point. Also, it doesn't include the sacrifice or pay 3 life bits of the costs.

Also, this is set to only work with 1 mana. See "oDC:Int_Set(0, 1)"? Change that to "oDC:Int_Set(0, 2)" for it to work with the other card (and also change all of the mana production to produce 2, of course).

There are more problems with your method as for example if you use Generator Servant and then cast a Sol Ring which you then tapped so you could cast 3 copies of Arcbound Worker. Your method would give 2 of those Arcbound Workers haste even though only 1 should get it. The case here is that you aren't considering that the mana was used for something that isn't a creature.

Another problem you be if you manually produced a mana and then used Generator Servant and cast in this order Soul Warden and 2 copies of Arcbound Worker the Soul Warden and 1 Arcbound Worker would get haste instead of the correct case where both Arcbound Workers would get haste. The problem here is that you aren't considering the case where the player casts a creature that doesn't colourless mana.

Another case would be if you used some of the colourless mana for an ability to say generate coloured mana to use to cast a spell (such as passing it into a Dimir Signet to then cast a Tidehollow Strix). You can have any amount of mana in the pool at any given time (up to 100 of each type as that is a hardcoded limit on tokens placed by the engine) as such any specific mana can be used for anything. For example if you are hoarding mana with Upwelling you aren't even guaranteed to use that mana in that turn it could be much later that you actually end up using it.

So in short yes, my method is more reliable and will behave better in most cases at the moment. Yes, it has issues with fringe cases where a user would want to save the mana and/or split it up to cast multiple creatures, but it behaves better in other cases where some of that mana would get used for some other reason such as increasing the amount of mana available, not using it for creatures without colourless mana, converting it to coloured mana, etc....
