Card Contributions

[Chris H.]

For debugging, is it really necessary to re-compress cardfolder.zip every time I change one card? It works but it's *slow*.

I think you can unzip cardfolder.zip and put the content under res\cardfolder\ and then remove the zip file.

`
The remove the zip file is an important step. I believe that the code will read the card files from the zip file and ignore the separate txt card files if the "cardsfolder.zip" file is found.

Hey marc, has Tuktuk Scrapper officially been scrapped or is it just that you haven't gotten around to it yet? It may be a few days before I finish the next batch anyway, I've got a big project here at home I've got to finish up, so no rush.

I'm not actually too sure. I'd prefer if Sloth decides whether its fine or not. There aren't too many situations that break it... pretty much if your allies get flash so you can cast a second while the trigger is on the stack, or if you're doing some Kiki-Jiki, Rules Breaker chenanigans. Essentially each time you target a new artifact while the other triggers are on the stack, the ForgetOtherRemembered will do just that, so except for the first instance to resolve, no damage will be dealt.

Shouldn't Tuktuk Scrapper use "RememberDestroyed" instead of "RememberTargets"?

[moomarc]

Well spotted, Sloth. Works beautifully. Only other things that needed to change were ading a cleanup and Destroy subability had to be an AB, otherwise the TargetedController caused a NPE. I think those defined types have to have a root AB or SP. Anyway, Tuktuk Scrapper is added!

I want to massively thank the devs and cardscripters involved in 1.2.6, especially for two reasons: first, they brought in more of my beloved targeted graveyard recursion (Dwell on the Past, Memory's Journey, Stream of Consciousness). Second, they left my absolute favourite such card, Gaea's Blessing, undone so I could grab it!

Tested, seems to work fine. I've been out of the loop, and don't know the current etiquette on Setinfo and Oracle lines; I filled in a Setinfo because Forge crashed when I left it empty. If they should be stripped for the scripts to fill in, hopefully some kind committer will do so.

By my count, this is my 99th scripted card. I really have to find (at least) one more....

Wanted to try out Chord of Calling earlier but found that Forge didn't have it yet, so I hacked this together based on the code for Scatter the Seeds, Reshape and Citanul Flute. Appears to work as intended but please do look it over.

Note: Since I'm a new user the system won't allow me to add offsite URLs, so I've left the two photo URLs blank. It's 156.jpg on maniccards.

By the way, is there a point to adding "Shuffle$ True"? It's in the code for Reshape but not Citanul Flute, even though they do similar things. I've tried it with and without the "Shuffle$ True" part and the library is shuffled in both cases.

This script doesn't work at the moment, because Convoke currently happens before the X is chosen.

Ah, you're right, seems I only tested for colored mana cost and didn't think to check to see if X can be paid using Convoke.

The next batch is ready. I'm sorry it took so long, but things are still hectic here. Not sure when the next batch will be, maybe a week or so.

Vintara Elephant: Is there a need for the use of AF Pump in addition to AF Animate?

Walking Sponge: Should use AF GenericChoice instead of AF Charm (the mode is chosen at resolution).

Wall of Vipers: Added.

Wandering Eye: Added.

Wash Out: Added.

[Sloth]

More comments:

Weight of Spires: Is not correct this way, the controller of the target may change (which would cause your version to fizzle).

Whirlpool Warrior: Added.

Winds of Change: Converted.

Thanks Squee. I will be away from keyboard for the next week. I hope someone else will check the other cards.
