spGainLife[Tgt] keyword

[Rob Cashwalker]

Hot on the heels of spLoseLife, it's closest cousin makes its debut performance!

spGainLife for you, spGainLifeTgt for a friend!

spGainLife:1 gets you one, spGainLife:2 gets you twice as much.

Most of the usual permutations apply.
New for this update, a math operation for Count$ - "Times.#" - While "Twice" is nice, "Times.2" is effectively the same, but "Times.3" is better, and who knows, "Times.4" might show up. (just don't try "Times.1.5")

Thank you.

I see that there is a few cards to be converted over. The new cards look interesting.

[Chris H.]

A couple of the new spGainLife spells use Flashback as a keyword. My memory has gotten foggy (old age) and I seem to think that there was something about using Flashback as a keyword.

I put together a test deck with Ancestral Tribute and Folk Medicine and when they were cast they did not appear in the Flashback window and I could not cast them a second time.

I tried another test deck with older Flashback spells and they worked correctly but the other Flashback spells are all hard coded. I think we should hold off on adding Ancestral Tribute and Folk Medicine at this time.

There are still a lot of new cards to add and there are 7 cards to convert over … should keep me busy for a while.

I am in the process of converting and merging these cards:

Dosan's Oldest Chant
Rejuvenate
Nourish

These 3 cards are part of a 4 card method and the fourth card, Renewed Faith can not yet be converted to keyword. I cleaned up the card object and we have a canPlay() section that appears to do very little if anything. What does the super.canPlay() do? Is it safe to remove this small section before I merge this material into our SVN?

Code: Select all

        //*************** START *********** START **************************
        else if(cardName.equals("Renewed Faith")) {
            SpellAbility spell = new Spell(card) {
                private static final long serialVersionUID = -1133816506198725425L;
               
                @Override
                public boolean canPlay() {
                    return super.canPlay();
                }
               
                @Override
                public void resolve() {
                    PlayerLife life = AllZone.GameAction.getPlayerLife(card.getController());
                    life.addLife(6);
                }
            };
           
            StringBuilder spDesc = new StringBuilder();
            spDesc.append("You gain 6 life.");
            spDesc.append("\r\n");
            spDesc.append("When you cycle Renewed Faith, you may gain 2 life.");
            spell.setDescription(spDesc.toString());
           
            StringBuilder stDesc = new StringBuilder();
            stDesc.append("Renewed Faith - ");
            stDesc.append(card.getController());
            stDesc.append(" gains life.");
            spell.setStackDescription(stDesc.toString());
           
            card.clearSpellAbility();
            card.addSpellAbility(spell);
           
            if (cardName.equals("Renewed Faith")) {
                card.addCycleCommand(new Command() {
                    private static final long serialVersionUID = 7699412574052780825L;
                   
                    public void execute() {

                    }
                });
            }

[Rob Cashwalker]

Renewed Faith could be done by keyword for the life gain ability, and then the CardFactory code only needs to add the special cycling command near then end of the block.

[DennisBergkamp]

These 3 cards are part of a 4 card method and the fourth card, Renewed Faith can not yet be converted to keyword. I cleaned up the card object and we have a canPlay() section that appears to do very little if anything. What does the super.canPlay() do?

Yeah you can remove the whole canPlay() block (super.canPlay() is just the default).

[Chris H.]

Thank you guys. Turns out that all we really need here is:

Code: Select all

//*************** START *********** START **************************
else if (cardName.equals("Renewed Faith")) {

    card.addCycleCommand(new Command() {
        private static final long serialVersionUID = 7699412574052780825L;
                   
        public void execute() {
            PlayerLife life = AllZone.GameAction.getPlayerLife(card.getController());
            life.addLife(2);
        }
    });
}//*************** END ************ END **************************
