I suspect this related to some work I did on the computer mana pool utilities back at the end of December. Unfortunately, I don't really play the quest mode so I am not familiar with this area of the code. Is there good way to debug this? Can I get to the AI deck somehow to play it in constructed mode? Or maybe someone can post a quest data file that is at a point where I could straight into this battle?Papagelos wrote:You dont need to code, imo. You already done more than enough. My quest mode is TONS more fun now that the shop has 25 boosters worth of cards.
Even though I still only found 4 cards to my tinker deck after playing some 40 matches.
Anywyas, I dont know if its your patches fault or not, but now the green dungeon challenge crashes (the one where computer starts with card that allows mana to carry between phases).
It crashes when he has about 6-7 lands out and tries to play something, with the error msg "Mana not needed G to play this spell" or something similar in the log.
So many cards, so little time

This archive includes the green dungeon quest deck and a setup file which requires the dev mode to be active. I hope that this helps to track this bug down.
Edit:
I was able to reproduce the above crash report. I assigned the quest deck to the computer and I choose a random generated deck for myself. I had to stall for a number of turns until the crash report displayed.

I found the problem. It should be fixed in r13954. Thanks for the setup file, it helped a lot.Chris H. wrote:`ArsenalNut wrote:I suspect this related to some work I did on the computer mana pool utilities back at the end of December.

Glad that I could help.
I updated to ver 13957 and ran forge with those two files and stalled for a number of
And I could see the green mana adding up in the computer's mana pool.

So, seeing all you legendary coders in here, I might as well ask my noobie questions;
Do all future updates include the patch to the code that Rou did, that allows me to set the maximum amount of shop boosters? (and can you please up it from the max value of 25 to atleast 50? Why limit this, money is the limiting factor anyways, not card availability)
Also, when upgrading to a new version, am I supposed to unpack the files to my old forge-directory and overwrite old files, or install to a new dir?
Edit: And is there a way to Skip turn? My ENTER button is getting worn out by having to press it 500 times per match. Also, When I want to skip my turn I press enter quickly, and I always miss instants the computer plays. there should be an "OK" button to acknoledge the instant he plays, and it should not be the enter button

yes

We limit changing the values using the In-Game-Method due to play balance issues. You can also increase these values to a much higher value by editing the values in a text editor outside of the game.

We advise people to read the included README.txt file and to then follow the instructions.
