I have implemented the follow code :
- Code: Select all
<TRIGGERED_ABILITY>
<TRIGGER value="BEGINNING_OF_PLAYERS_STEP" simple_qualifier="controller">
if (MTG():GetStep() == STEP_UPKEEP) then

return true
elseif (status == 1) then
local chest = NEO_GetPlayerUpkeepDC(EffectController())
local card = chest:Get_CardPtr(2)
if TriggerObject() == card then
return true
else
return false
end
end

return false
end
</TRIGGER>
<RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION />

- Code: Select all
NEO_PlayerUpkeepDCStatus = function(player)

local chest = nil
local Value = 0
if player ~= nil then
