Collectible Card Game Headquarters

I toyed around with snow mana today and there are still some issues:

- I can't use snow mana from a snow land (for example Boreal Shelf) as colored mana. Not directly and not via the mana pool.
- If I have snow mana in my mana pool and I want to cast a colored spell, I click on the mana pool and I get asked how I want to use the mana. If I chose snow, weird things happen: I get asked again (the same window), or more than one mana is subtracted from the cost. In the end the snow mana is still in my pool and I can use it again.

By the way: Using abilities with snow mana works fine and these creatures can be added:

And Boreal Druid is still not a snow creature.

Should I use SVN for little updates in cards.txt and card-pictures.txt in the future? Or should I post my suggestion here, not to mess things up?

Cool! Feel free to use the SVN (or post them here, either way ).
I've just updated the SVN with your changes.

Thank you for your good work.

To make contributions to the SVN you will need to install Eclipse and learn how to build a project with the source code.

Then you will need to find and install the Subclipse plugin and the Subversion binaries. This additional software will allow you to access the SVN files. This will allow you to keep your local copy up to date with the SVN code.

To move your updates in cards.txt and card-pictures.txt files to the SVN you will have to ask for and receive committer's status.

It is up to you if you would like to make this level of commitment to the project. I have a few minor updates that I would like to make to the SVN. On occasion, I could move some of your contributions over at the same time.

Both of you guys still need committer privileges though... hmm, I think I have owner status, so I could add you as committers.
Just pm me your gmail addresses, and I'll send you both an invite.

Since Eclipse runs awfully slow on my pc, I think I will stick to posting my suggestions here on the forum. I'm very gratefull to you Dennis for incoorporating them.

I would be glad if you (or anyone) could move my contributions to SVN if you feel like it, Chris. I will try to make them as complete and bug-free as possible.

Thanks for the great improvements!

PS: One of the snow creatures (Phyrexian Ironfoot) was suggested by Marek14 and not me. So thanks to him!

Yay me!

For someone not making source code changes, you only need a standalone SVN client like TortoiseSVN. It can download the repository as a folder structure, with right-click-menu integration.
