(Tejahn) Manifest Cards

[Tejahn]

Cloudform

Soul Summons

I've been trying for days to implement this mechanic but I've been yet unsuccessful. Therefore, to speed up the release of Fate Reforged I'm asking anyone if they can create the 18 Manifest cards or if someone can provide the code. I've looked over NeoAnderson's Morph code extensivel but I'm still having trouble. Below I'll post his code and I'll also PM him to see if he's interested in creating the cards or providing the code. Again, anyone able to help, please do.

Here is the Morph code created by NeoAnderson:

Morph works by replacing the card with a completely different card, but tracking which one created it (more or less). The real issue here is that the Morph code Neo created wouldn't be able to display the other creature. See, it displays the information by using a localized text string, and those are hard coded. Unless you made a localized string for every single creature card, this wouldn't work.

Hopefully Neo can help, because the code for Morph is necessarily very complicated, and I'm pretty sure he's the only one that knows what's going on. For the information about the face-up creature, would it be possible to get the information about the face-up creature? It wouldn't be able to show the abilities, but showing the name and type as well as power and toughness if it's a creature would make the card usable.

[Tejahn]

I agree. I've tried different approaches to no avail. Hopefully, someone will come along and help us out.

[Tejahn]

Would you mind sending me your manifest code? It's a rather complex ability and we'd be WAY better off not having multiple versions.

Lightform

I just posted the above video of what I have for the Manifest mechanic. It is totally incomplete. As it stands now, I'm using Lightform to test it. The card only exiles the top card of your library face down in the Exile Zone and places that card on the battlefield at the beginning of the end step. Again, this was for testing purposes to make the card lay face down. I didn't even add the 'As a 2/2 creature' part because I'm not sure it will become such since it is place directly in exile. Do you think Riiak can help us code it? I tried following Neo's code with no success. I suppose I'll just have to release the set without Manifest included if no one can help. I feel that this is not a good reason to keep delaying the release of the set.

EDIT: I've uploaded the video to YouTube but it hasn't processed yet. I've included a .ZIP so you can view the video until I can embed it here.

Here is the code that places it face down in exile.

Code: Select all

   <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    local top_card = EffectController():Library_GetTop()
    if top_card ~= nil then
       EffectDC():Set_CardPtr(0, top_card)
       EffectDC():Protect_CardPtr(0)
       top_card:ExileFaceDown()
    end
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
   <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    local exiled_card = EffectDC():Get_CardPtr(0)
    if exiled_card ~= nil then
       local delayDC = EffectDC():Make_Chest(1)
       delayDC:Set_CardPtr(0, exiled_card)
       MTG():CreateDelayedTrigger(2, delayDC)
    end
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>

And here is the code that returns it to the battlefield at the beginning of the end step.

Code: Select all

<TRIGGERED_ABILITY resource_id="2">
   <TRIGGER value="BEGINNING_OF_PLAYERS_STEP">
    return TriggerPlayer() == EffectController() and MTG():GetStep() == STEP_END_OF_TURN
    </TRIGGER>
   <CLEANUP fire_once="1" />
   <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    local exiled_card = EffectDC():Get_CardPtr(0)
    if exiled_card ~= nil then
       EffectDC():Protect_CardPtr(0)
       exiled_card:PutOntoBattlefield( EffectController() )
    end 
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
   <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    local exiled_card = EffectDC():Get_CardPtr(0)
    if exiled_card ~= nil then
       exiled_card:TurnFaceUp()
    end 
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
   <AUTO_SKIP>
    return EffectDC():Get_CardPtr(0) == nil
    </AUTO_SKIP>
</TRIGGERED_ABILITY>

[RiiakShiNal]

I'm afraid I likely won't be able to help here. There are just too many problems with face down cards (because there is no engine support for it).

Also due to power outages in my area last night, one of my important systems has gone down and refuses to come back up (even though it was shutdown properly). So that is going to absorb most of my time outside of work until I can get it back up and running.

[Tejahn]

I understand. Thanks for responding. Those may have to come in a future update.

[Xander9009]

Dang, that sucks about your system Hopefully you can get it resolved soon.

As for the file, I can't play the video. So I guess I'll have to wait for the youtube version. Although, I already understand what you mean, based on looking at the code.

However, I don't think exiling the card face down is a good solution. The only way that is likely to produce workable results is to mirror Neo's morph. The morph code is all his, but I went through it when I converted the morph cards to work with the CW to figure out why the ability text wasn't working (now I know why, but it's a VERY tedious process to fix ), and I now understand relatively well what's going on there.It's certainly not a simple process, but it is at least fairly straight-forward if I remember right.

It certainly won't be perfectly accurate, but it should at least be an almost-as-close approximation as morph (it needs a different method of showing info about the face-up card, the morph cards are all hard-coded). For that part, I'm considering using a two-part system. Using either a GuidedReveal() (if that can reveal to a single player) or a choice (if it can't) which shows the player another copy of the card from their library hand or graveyard if it finds one, and then pulling just the name, power, toughness, types, subtypes, and some close approximation of cost.

As far as cost goes, is there a way to get the actual mana cost of a card so the player could PayManaCost()? Y'know, thinking about it, I really wish the developers had simply added an attribute usable in the ability tags for immutable: an ability which cannot be removed. That would make manual mana and this radical solution I've got in mind so much easier.

I would definitely go ahead and release the set once you've got everything else done. They can always be added later.

[Kithkin]

I would definitely go ahead and release the set once you've got everything else done. They can always be added later.

That seems to be a good idea. Looking at the TOP 8 decks from the last Starcitygames.com tournament, there is not a single Manifest card. Just saying.

[Tejahn]

Xander9009, those are awesome ideas. I hope you can create a good approximation. And I agree with you and Kithkin that Manifest can be released later, if at all. The time to release the set is here. I'll be sending you the CORE so you can examine the codes one final time.

[RiiakShiNal]

Dang, that sucks about your system Hopefully you can get it resolved soon.

I managed to get my system up. Apparently, the problem is that on system startup (and only on system startup) the USB 3.0 hub (which has its own power adapter) I have on the system pulls too much power and not enough is given to motherboard/processor. So if I unplug the USB on startup the computer comes up just fine, then I can plug the USB hub back in. So later I'll probably have to look into getting a better power supply, but for now things are working.

As far as cost goes, is there a way to get the actual mana cost of a card so the player could PayManaCost()? Y'know, thinking about it, I really wish the developers had simply added an attribute usable in the ability tags for immutable: an ability which cannot be removed. That would make manual mana and this radical solution I've got in mind so much easier.

Unfortunately, you can't get the exact mana cost in all situations, but in most situations you can get pretty close.

First you start with the CMC as this tells you the max mana to use for the card. Then you get the Chroma count (using a filter) for the card's colourless mana and subtract that from the max to get the max coloured count (won't work right for cards like Spectral Procession, though this could be detected by also checking the coloured chroma count and noticing that white would be 3 even though the max should be 0 based on the math at which point you can deduce it uses 3 {2/W} symbols). Then you ask for the chroma counts for each of the 5 colours and based on the responses there you can most of the time get the appropriate mana cost (including hybrid mana, excluding phyrexian mana). This also will not cover certain cards that have a mix of hybrid mana types or a mix of hybrid colours and regular colours like Arsenal Thresher (as there is no way to determine which colours are used for the hybrid mana and which is regular).

[Tejahn]

Thanks for that information RiiakShiNal. I needed to know that for an unrelated project. I was actually about to ask a similar question in my Question Thread.

[Tejahn]

The video is up top. It's just to show that cards can be placed face-down in the Exile Zone. I didn't realize that I recorded the first 30 or more seconds of it.

My question is, by changing the zone from Exile to battlefield will it still work. I'll try it after I submit the blue Fate Reforged core over to Xander9009.

[Xander9009]

I have some great news, but unfortunately, that news is not yet that it's 100% working. Rather, it's that it's 99% working.

• Will manifest regardless of whether or not the card is a permanent (the game is not a fan of putting instants and sorceries onto the battlefield)
• You can't see what card it is before it hits the battlefield. Thanks to the fact that the ability isn't on the manifested card (unlike morph), it never goes to the stack, so that wasn't a problem, thankfully.
• It's also got the ability to turn face up, and it successfully shows the cost, name, types, subtypes, power, and toughness for any card.
• The Morph code was meant to morph one card (the one it was on), so it had to be modified to support being cast multiple times and manifesting a different card each time. This works.

One thing I haven't done but want to is what I mentioned about finding and showing another instance of the card to display what it does. For now, here's a copy to let me know if it works for you guys. Let me know if there are any problems I haven't encountered (especially if you want to test the code's ability to display phyrexian or hybrid mana; I haven't tested that at all yet).

[Tejahn]

Great! I'm about to test this and Soulflayer. Once this is 100% working, all that's left is Wild Slash. The mod will be 100% complete. Thanks Xander9009!

[Xander9009]

Speaking of Soulflayer, I've got the exact list of files necessary for Delve to work.

Cards:

• _MANAGER_ABILITIES_ACTIVE
• _MANAGER_CHARACTERISTICS
• RSN_TOKEN_MANA_C

Functions:

• D14_NEO_MANA_COST_FUNCTIONS
• RSN_FAKE_CHARACTERISTICS
• RSN_MANA
• RSN_OBJECTDC

With those files (plus RSN_DEFENDING_PLAYER, RSN_DURATION, Favor of the Gods (my test card)) the delve ability worked and the card had the proper abilities. This was on a completely clean installation with NO other mods (not even the full manual mana wad). Just a new test deck with some vanilla creatures and the deck builder custom folder with those files.

Wild Slash may or may not work. Now that Manifest is done (hopefully), I'll see about getting it to work. I doubt it will be fully possible to do, though.
