Gauntlet Mode

[Doublestrike]

I was poking around in my Forge cave, turned over a rock, and...Gauntlet Mode!









Please report issues here.

[Doublestrike]

Just one "documentation" type note that's not self-explanatory:

There's the "Contests" section, which is for gauntlets like "World Championships 1997" or something.

The deck packs that Gos creates are perfect for these. I've added "DotP Preconstructed" from one of his recent posts, and "Swimming with Sharks".

If a dev wants to add more of these, just add the prefix "LOCKED_" to the beginning of the .dat file in /res/gauntlets and it will show up on the contests screen.

Got an exception after the splash disappears.

I saw this one as well

Tried to fix it myself. see r17396

I just played a Gauntlet Match. It looks like Gauntlet mode is only half ignoring the ante checkbox. No cards are ante-d in the beginning of the game, but at the end of the game it tries to add the blank cards to your deck. Providing this error:

Gauntlet mode is not adding games played to FMatchState (method addGamePlayed). If he did, the list from Singletons.getModel().getMatchState().getGamesPlayed() would have contained a game and there would be no OoB

I updated to rev 17403 and attempted to run forge from within Eclipse and I get the following crash report:

I used a utility to display all hidden files/folders starting with a "." and I can see the ".svn" folder located within the /res/gauntlet/ folder.
 

[Doublestrike]

Wow, tough crowd

I've tested on my two development environments and I'm not getting the SVN error...should be easy to fix if I can find it.

I'll fix the ante problem. I never use ante so it slipped through testing...on the list.

[friarsol]

Wow, tough crowd

Now now. Gauntlet mode has easily been the top of the list of reasonable feature requests, I just want to make sure everything runs smoothly. Looked awesome before it died on me

[Chris H.]

Wow, tough crowd

 
We really appreciate your efforts and we all were anxious to try the new gauntlet mode out and a few of us had some problems and we are just trying to provide enough data to help the process along.

We will get it sorted out and we want to thank you for this new mode.

[Doublestrike]

Glad it's working out then!

[Doublestrike]

Had a look at the ante problem and it's happening in Constructed mode too, which suggests a global bug, so I'm going to take this off my list for now.

(Screenshot is from constructed mode win; no cards are eligible to be added.)

I used a utility to display all hidden files/folders starting with a "." and I can see the ".svn" folder located within the /res/gauntlet/ folder.
 

I added a check in the GauntletIO methods that will ignore .svn directories. I was able to start forge without any errors after that.

Wish you used my StorageReaderFolder class for readin all files in a folder.
