New combat system

by **Incantus** » 06 Jun 2008, 23:18

I've redone the combat system to make it more intuitive to select attackers and blockers. I've just uploaded the exe file compressed - just replace your Incantus.exe with the one from the archive below.

[Removed - see link below]

Let me know your comments. Does this way seem more intuitive?

First of all congrats for this amazing application. I played a few games and it works really well, but i've found some little glitches.
The first one involved declaring attackers. Sometimes after declaring them i hit Enter and nothing happens, then i hit Escape then Enter and again nothing happens, so the only choice i have is to exit the application. This happend to me twice but i don't know what led to this problem.
Edit: It appears that this occurs when i attack with Bloodrock Cyclops, probably due to the fact that it has the ability to attack each turn.
The next problem can be easily reproduced: After declaring the attackers i change my mind and hit Escape then Enter (without any attackers) the game crashes. Here is the crashlog:

Code: Select all: Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 8, in <module> File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/Incantus.py", line 788, in main File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/Incantus.py", line 667, in run File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/game/GameKeeper.py", line 172, in run File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/game/GameKeeper.py", line 195, in singleTurn File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/game/GameKeeper.py", line 405, in combatPhase File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/game/GameObjects.py", line 13, in send File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/game/pydispatch/dispatcher.py", line 371, in send File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/game/pydispatch/robustapply.py", line 47, in robustApply File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/animator.py", line 192, in declare_attackers File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/play_view.py", line 79, in declare_attackers File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/play_view.py", line 73, in layout_attackers ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero

Second one happend when i used Blaze (where X=6) to reduce the opponents life from 6 to 0, i get the message that a players life has been redced to 0 and after i hit OK it crashes. I get this crashlog:

Code: Select all: Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 8, in <module> File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/Incantus.py", line 788, in main File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/Incantus.py", line 664, in run File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/pyglet/clock.py", line 277, in tick File "/private/tmp/Incantus-tmp/Incantus/play_view.py", line 176, in <lambda> ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list

I've fixed the crashing bug (but not yet the cyclops).

You can get the new version here:

Replace Incantus.exe and data/cards.db

Also, when it crashes it would also help to include the replay.dump file in the error report. Thanks!

I conform that it crashes when you press escape if a creature has "attacks if able".
you'll be able to reproduce this bug
