Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Face-Down can already be checked by hasProperty() (for example creature.faceDown).

What we have to do is not displaying exiled face down cards to the opponent (like with morph). But exiled face down cards are pretty rare anyway (Bottled Cloister, Colfenor's Plans, Duplicity etc.)

EDIT: I just noticed, the only card we have that should use exiled face down cards is Necropotence.

I've gone to a lot of effort fixing cards that worked incorrectly and getting infrastructure in place that would streamline cards so they can be correct. I don't like the idea of adding cards because they are "close enough." Is this singleton card really in that high of a demand?

Pull from Eternity can be added with ValidTgt$ Card.faceUp and it will be fine now (besides with Necropotence) and work correct in the future.

What about abilities where Origin$ and Destination$ are both library? This would be for cards like Congregation at Dawn . The shuffle happens after the cards are placed in Destination. Which screws up top of library. Can this be made so that the shuffle happens before the cards are placed in the destination?

I took the liberty of moving my bug fix here so as not to overwhelm the users with too much java code.

I see the problem referred to in the second quote. I think that this minor mod will address the "ChangeNum > 1" problem:

Code: Select all

        for (int i=0; i < changeNum; i++) {
            if (fetchList.size() == 0 || destination == null)
                break;
               
            Object o = AllZone.Display.getChoiceOptional("Select a card", fetchList.toArray());
           
            if (o != null) {
                origZone.remove(o);
                Card c = (Card) o;
                fetchList.remove(c);

                if (destination.equals("Library")) {
                    // this needs to be zero indexed. Top = 0, Third = 2
                    int libraryPos = params.containsKey("LibraryPosition") ? Integer.parseInt(params.get("LibraryPosition")) : 0;
                    // do not shuffle the library once we have placed a fetched card on top.
                    if (origin.equals("Library") && i < 1) {
                        player.shuffle();
                    }
                    destZone.add(c, libraryPos);
                }
                else {
                    destZone.add(c);
                    if (destination.equals("Battlefield") && params.containsKey("Tapped"))
                        c.tap();
                }
            }
        }
       
        if (origin.equals("Library") && !destination.equals("Library"))
            player.shuffle();

Looks to me like it works. Thanks Chris.

Good stuff Chris. I figured there had to be a few things that weren't accounted for when I was creating those functions, but didn't really have enough time to test them more thoroughly.

Thank you Slapshot5 and Sol. Yeah, one more missing piece to the AbilityFactory jigsaw puzzle added.
