Not a bug, maybe more of a question about the AI. Is it possible for the AI to see if it can use the mana that turn before it pays two life to play Blood Crypt untapped?

[Chris H.]

I have noticed some problems recently in the spell descriptions and in particluar, the CostDesc$. We should be able to place text in the CostDesc$ and not have any text in the SpellDescription$.

But the alt cost for Angelic Favor does not appear. I have been too busy with other parts of the project and have not been able to track this down. Logically, I would assume that if the SpellDescription$ is empty, then the CostDesc$ string is not added to the spell text.

If you check the deck editor for the card below you will see that it does not display this text in the card detail panel:

"If you control a Plains, you may tap an untapped creature you control rather than pay CARDNAME's mana cost."

We have a few auras that do not work. I am not pointing any fingers, the work pace has been furious over the last several months and we have to expect a few errors in the cards that we have scripted. I have made a few errors myself.

I believe that the following keywords have no code. They serve as a flag that can be tested elsewhere in the code. The following keywords are just a flag, so to speak:

K:Enchant artifact
K:Enchant creature
K:Enchant creature with converted mana cost 2 or less
K:Enchant creature without flying
K:Enchant red or green creature
K:Enchant land
K:Enchant land you control
K:Enchant tapped creature

It has been awhile, but the enPump keyword is limited to creatures. The keywords above do not provide any sort of code to attach and detach the aura from the card that it is to enchanted.

Nonetheless, the following aura is not functional from what I could tell while doing some testing:

Animal Boneyard card text | Open

Name:Animal Boneyard
ManaCost:2 W
Types:Enchantment Aura
K:Enchant land
K:stPumpAll:Card.AttachedBy:0/0/SVar=GainLife & SVar=LifeGained:No Condition:Enchanted land has "Tap, Sacrifice a creature: You gain life equal to that creature's toughness."

Re: Animal Boneyard

Change it to:
K:Enchant Land

and I bet it'll work.

I had a No Mercy out and my opponent attacked with three creatures. I let them through expecting then all to be killed. But only the first one to resolve did. Is this the Target issue or just a similar issue in Triggers?

[friarsol]

When deciding to put the recently clashed card on the top or bottom, the display panel shows the card that triggered the clash, not the card that might be moving.

That did the trick. Thank you.

Pretty sure it's the target issue. Probably.

[friarsol]

No Mercy doesn't target that's why I was wondering.

[Hellfish]

Well, it doesn't target in the rules sense but it still has targets, the Defined$ creature that dealt damage.

Also, fixed the carddisplay not showing the right card on clashing.

The AI's Quicksilver Behemoth attacks, the trigger goes off, but the Behemoth isn't returned at the end of combat.
Quicksilver Behemoth worked fine yesterday (r7874) though.

Edit - nevermind.

[Hellfish]

Quicksilver Behemoth bug fixed, my recent optimizations didn't account for delayed triggers.
EDIT: WILL be fixed, google code is spazzing out on me.

The AI controls two Vulshok Sorcerer. It does not combine them to shoot my Frogmite.

The AI always casts equipment postcombat. Sometimes, it does not equip its creature even if it has no other use for its mana.
Putting PlayMain1:TRUE on an equipment doesn't help - the AI casts it MP1, but does not equip it until its next turn.

The AI always uses Stoneforge Mystic during its MP1 if it has an equipment to bring in, even if that equipment costs 2 or less mana.

I have yet to see the AI using its Pyrite Spellbomb when I am at 3 or more life.
In general, the AI uses artifacts and enchantments with "Sacrifice CARDNAME: Awesome effect" very rarely.

The AI cast two Temporal Isolation on my Myr Enforcer. I had other sweet targets to choose from.

This will no longer be the case. The AI will use Seal of Fire and similar artifacts and enchantments without mercy! Thanks for reporting Replika.
