[Old confirmed] Bug Archive

[Aswan jaguar]

I confirm that both bugs happen but in the first time I loaded your savegame Chancellor of the Spires worked fine in the opening hand that time also the EDH card triggered the only time it did,when it didn't trigger Chancellor of the Spires didn't work "You may reveal Chancellor of the Spires from your opening hand. If you do, at the beginning of the first upkeep, each opponent puts the top seven cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard".
I wonder if it is a conflict with EDH card?

Bug1: Confirmed for Creeping corrosion and Barbed Lightning (nothing happen, Entwined Barbed Lightning give illegal player error and text line is borked), but it worked fine for me with Ancestral Recall and Brainstorm.

Bug2: The player library is shuffled but in fact the card stolen is completely removed from the game and isn't even in all exile area, confirmed that with others spell like Ancestral Recall or Brainstorm.

Bug3: confirmed, must be the fear ability because intimidate is working correctly (I was able to block Highborn Ghoul with Wrexial, the Risen Deep but not with Marrow-Gnawer)

[Gargaroz]

Some things are fixed, others are more troublesome, like the interaction with the Beacons and similar spells. Please be patient.

[Aswan jaguar]

Which bugs are fixed 1 and 3?

[Aswan jaguar]

I have put to much effort to let it go to the "toilet"....

[stassy]

It's a confirmed bug, so it won't go to "waste" (just in the confirmed-but-not-fixed bin of the corner)

[Gargaroz]

Nah, AJ, don't worry, I'm looking into this and got an hint about what's wrong. Stay tuned.
Edit 1 : Now artifacts with Phyrexian mana correctly interacts with Etherium Sculptor. I really don't undestand why the other colored artifact doesn't work, but I suspect something hardcoded. More tomorrow.

[Gargaroz]

Solved another issue : spells with Phyrexian Mana now are of the proper color.

[Aswan jaguar]

Although you have fixed phyrexian mana artifacts - Etherium Sculptor I want to mention something I forgot to report:that some times you couldn't even play them when Etherium Sculptor was in play,they were highlighted as playable but you couldn't cast them.Probably you fixed that,too.

[Gargaroz]

Yup, there was a bug in the code which checks mana cost alteration.
However, it seems that for some reasons the hardcoded part about the cost reduction doesn't work for colored artifacts...

[Aswan jaguar]

By mistake or it was a random in my tests thing I thought Architects of Will didn't work with Etherium Sculptor but it did and it was the only card that worked with Active Volcano,....too that led me to find what was the problem for the rest coloured artifacts and to the solution.
The problem was that they were put wrongly the value "modifies casting cost" 1 instead of 0 when I replaced the values to 0 all cards got the reduction in cost -1 from Etherium Sculptor.

The only cards not working now as they should with Active Volcano and rest are:
1) Ethersworn Adjudicator = Works fine with Etherium Sculptor.
28/7 EDIT 13) Ethersworn Canonist = Works fine with Etherium Sculptor.
14) Shardless Agent = Works fine with Etherium Sculptor.

I hope this will give you an idea to find why only these 3 cards are not working.

EDIT. Damn I didn't post a little earlier you could put this fix,too.

[Gargaroz]

AJ, that value is actually right, as it serves the purpose of avoiding the "enlightning" of Colored Artifacts as castable when you've only the colorless mana required.
If you test, you'll find that that old bug is re-introduced with your changes.

[Aswan jaguar]

And I wondered if another bug would arise from these changes.
I didn't spot it as I gave AI the coloured artifact deck in my tests and AI didn't have any problem at all with the "enlightening bug".
I can hear AI mocking at me:fullish human can't you calculate mana to pay for your spells?!!!

As I am a PC MTG person the enlightening is really helpful,for the MTG paper people I guess it won't be a big deal.

[stassy]

I love ML because of AI gameplay easiness, like double click for auto-tap, auto untap, auto counter and such, if AI mock me because I don't count mana, I will make him suffer with some good Archenemy plays

[Aswan jaguar]

Just an idea Gargaroz maybe you can find another fix for the Enlightning Bug of coloured artifacts (although if I remember correctly you said then that it caused you a lot of trouble to come up with this fix) so we can remove then that value and fix coloured artifacts not working with Etherium Sculptor.
