)Posted: 03 Jan 2012, 11:14As mentioned above, Drain Life can't be done at the moment because of the mana restriction. Rathi Dragon and Harvest Wurm also can't be done yet because at the moment we only support mana-only unless clauses. I've tried doing the licids before but it doesn't seem like they can be done at the moment (or if they can its just too convoluted). For Desolation we don't have a check yet for TappedForManaThisTurn, so also can't be done.lavino wrote:I was hoping to see Rathi Dragon since last xmas...
Desolation is a black card I would love to see. I used it in a pure black creature-less deck. I am not sure but there is no Drain Life too. It was such a common black staple card? May be it got banned or something.. sorry I didn't play for years.
How about those licid? Dominating Licid was a great member in the blue control deck.
Harvest Wurm is also a card I missed seeing. It is fast and great for green deck.
Just a couple of wishes
Posted: 03 Jan 2012, 11:46Just reposting as I doubt any Devs will go 3 pages back to check for requests. Right now Bloodchief Ascension is the number one thing I want in Forge.Accountancy wrote:Are all the Ascensions difficult to implement? I'd like to see Bloodchief Ascension in forge, so I could tinker around with modern Bloodcrank and it seems like a simpler card that Pyromancer Ascension.
Also could we get Wound Reflection and Blood Tribute (I'd love Temporal Extortion as well, but I know to quite while I'm ahead)
Posted: 03 Jan 2012, 11:55If you check the feature requests page you'll see that I've posted a request for the particular code I need to be able to script Bloodchief Ascension, Luminarch Ascension and a few others concerned with life lost during a turn, so they'll get to it when they have a chance. Repeating requests every three pages doesn't help much because it just pushes everyone elses requests out as well. We're working through cards and features as quickly as we can.

Posted: 03 Jan 2012, 16:30As far as the percentage of it flipping over, i tried flipping cards earlier when working on this and most of them did not flip, unless I did a very strange way of flipping it, where it then entirely missed my target and ended up either halfway across the room or on my own stuff. I've seen other people flip it on target with very little effort though. So I think the 50% chance gives a good balance since we can't emulate people's flipping skills.slapshot5 wrote:My thought were more along these lines:sagephoenix wrote:Well, as we obviously know, we can't physically move a digital object. We could emulate it very well, but that's a ridiculous amount of work involved.
So we have two choices, difficult or easy.
During the resolve:
1. prompt the user to click somewhere on the battlefield
2. We can get an X,Y position from that click.
3. Randomly orient the Chaos Orb card (drawn same size as battlefield cards) on the battlefield (include some sort of X,Y offset generated randomly to account for dropping from 1 foot +)
4. Include some random percentage to simulate the card not flipping completely over. Though I'd expect this to be small. May take some play-testing with a real Magic Card!
5. Destroy any card that has a part of it exposed (which should be every card of the battlefield) and the part that is exposed is within the randomly oriented rectangle or the Chaos Orb. <--This is probably the hard part.
I think this is fair, and pretty realistic. I've never played with an actual Chaos Orb myself. I'm not going to add the ability to tear it up (though, that may be a fun easter egg to put in Forge. Hmmm...). I can also probably do something with the Animation class (used when you draw a card for example) to have some kind of realistic animation.
Thoughts?

Posted: 04 Jan 2012, 00:16Nah. It would be a human-only easter egg. I've got an idea, but I'm not going to post it. Especially since I'm not even sure I can make this card work *without* tearing it up.sagephoenix wrote:An idea for tearing it up would be to have an option to turn that on or off. Kind of like the old option for turning off mill losses. That way the AI won't do it.
Posted: 04 Jan 2012, 02:47I know in the past some cards were introduced partially, we had Sprout Swarm without convoke, which was far more important to the card than Splice is to Through the Breach. If partial cards are no longer put into the main program, nevermind, but Through the Breach is a somewhat important card in modern, representing one of the best ways to cheat an Emrakul and I think it could be great to have it, even without Splice.friarsol wrote:You mean Splice into Arcane?

Posted: 04 Jan 2012, 03:03Yea, there's been a big changing of the guard regarding that. I've been a huge advocate about not adding partial cards, and trying to fix the partial cards already existing in Forge. It could probably be added as a Half-Implemented card, but I don't really do those. I'm sure it's not very different than Sneak Attack s Ability (which we do have) if you someone was interested in writing a partial script for it.Accountancy wrote:I know in the past some cards were introduced partially, we had Sprout Swarm without convoke, which was far more important to the card than Splice is to Through the Breach.

Posted: 04 Jan 2012, 10:08Thanks Sol. I've posted the full script (with a version of the splice mechanic) to the half implemented cards thread. For the Splice onto Arcane bit, when you cast an arcane spell you'll be asked whether you want to splice this spell onto it. If you do, pay the cost and the spell will go onto the stack. So essentially the only difference from the correct implementation is that both parts would have to be countered separately instead of as one enlarged spell, and the spliced bit can be copied because it is a new spell on the stack.friarsol wrote:Yea, there's been a big changing of the guard regarding that.

Posted: 04 Jan 2012, 16:06We can't script Reap properly at the moment due to the multi-targeting (targets creatures and targets an opponent), so I've added the script to the half-implemented cards thread without the opponent targeting. If he has shroud you'll have to restrict yourself from casting it.jmartus wrote:what about the card Reap
