With this code I get prompted for the mode selection, and I'm pretty sure this step works as it then goes to the appropriate target selection, but the resolution time action always fails (i.e. either giving a creature indestructible or destroying a creature with toughness 4 or more does not happen).

nivmizzet1, I already made Valorous Stance in the Fate Reforged set but I'm away from my laptop at the moment. I won't be returning home until tomorrow but I suspect someone will have provided you the code before then. If not, I'll post the XML for you tomorrow.

Your Get_Targets() calls are missing the compartment numbers.

So for example for the indestructible call it should be:

Code: Select all

local target = EffectDC():Get_Targets(1):Get_CardPtr(0)

I know next to nothing about coding, but looking at other code I thought compartment numbers may go in there; I actually had them there in an old version. But isn't that only relevant for the AI? Either way, I changed it and the actions still aren't working.

I did a search and saw that you'd coded it, but not released it. Unfortunately, that doesn't help me

That would be awesome if you post it when you're home, provided nobody provides the code first

I'll be sure to post it. But hopefully someone will provide the entire code before I make it back.

After you added the compartment numbers was it generating a script log? (It would definitely generate a script log without them.)

No script log (EDIT: also no script log without the compartment numbers). EDIT2: It's weird though, I don't even get a script log when I use a deck that I know crashes the game

nivmizzet1, I'm not sure if you already have the code but below is the one I use. If you did go ahead and create this card post the post so I can comparitively study it's structure as well.

I can already see some problems in your code Tejahn, are you sure you tested it?

You have the tag for indestructible for both effects (i.e. you have the indestuctible tag for destroy creature ability). You also have the target for the destroy creature ability as "ALLIED ONLY". Other than that, with the exception of the added SFX in your code, our codes are virtually identical, so I really can't see why yours would work but mine won't.

EDIT: and I just realised mine was defining targets as creatures with power over 4, not toughness.

OK. I finally got it working

It didn't like that I had the duration following the first ability and before the second (which logically I guess are part of a single ability, which is why it doesn't like it).

here is my final code:

A thousand pardons. I posted the code fot the XML before I went back and corrected errors. Your post prompted me to delete that development folder. Either way, I'm glad you completed it. Can I look forward to downloading some new decks from you?

Maybe it's best if I say you shouldn't. When DOTP 2014 was released I planned not to do a release, and I toned down my modding quite a lot, as it was all taking too much of my time. I only recently came back to modding, and DOTP 2014, when I got a craving for DOTP, after not purchasing DOTP 2015 because it abandoned the pre-constructed decks that I liked so much about the DOTP franchise. So I started out just making one or two fun decks to play to pass the time, but it quickly, as it often does, became a good dozen or so decks (I think it's around 20 now) -- getting close to being worthwhile for a release. However, there are still some bugs in cards that I'm trying to iron out, and the game is crashing with some decks for no apparent reason (I think I came close to locating the problem in one particular case, but nobody on here seems to be able to help me and I'm not qualified to solve it on my own), and I wouldn't be happy releasing until these problems were fixed, which may never happen; I also haven't been as careful with my balancing of these decks, and some are purely for myself/friends, with unofficial mtg cards, so with those decks removed the number of decks for release are diminishing (although I'm sure there's ways I could modify these decks, but that's more work). I have considered doing a future release, but the effort required for that is a bit daunting for me at this stage. The fact that 2014 is so old now and the audience is so diminished also makes me wonder if it's worth my time to go to the effort required for releasing them. So I guess only time will tell.

Well, I would be very much interested in your decks. But as you said, general interest does not seem to be very high. I estimate 5 people. The community may prove me wrong.

I understand. Thanks for the explanation.
