A crazy idea would be to use Multiply in order to add 2... crazy because I actually made my math.
xy = x+2 => y = 1 + (2/x)
so:

Code: Select all

Damage():Multiply( 1 + 2/Damage():GetAmount() )

Thanks for bringing back some algebra memories to me! I completely forgot it could be useful

So, here's my report: I cast Shock onto opponent, player loses 4 life. Good. But, having two gauntlets would require a new formula something like y = (1 + ((2*instances)/x) and this looks very odd

I don't understand why they've cut or (replaced?) SetAmount... like you said about preventable damage, I don't think I will accept that approximation.

there's Set_Damage and Get_Damage in data chest and also an existing COMPARTMENT_ID_DAMAGE, do you know in which circumstance these would apply?

and I've found this in EXTRACTINFO.LOL:

Code: Select all

SetAmount = function(l_13_0)
  MTG():EffectDataChest():Set_Int(COMPARTMENT_ID_PARAM_AMOUNT, l_13_0)
end


tried to add MTG():EffectDataChest():Set_Int(COMPARTMENT_ID_PARAM_AMOUNT, 15) in a RTA (resolution_time_action) and it didn't change the amount of damage. also Damage():SetAmount( 15 ) generates an error log.

But, having two gauntlets would require a new formula something like y = (1 + ((2*instances)/x)

This shouldn't be needed... one of them replaces the damage and the other one replaces the damage again after the first. 2 Fire Servant or Furnace of Rath should work good together without editing their code, I think, so why shouldn't this work the same way?

there's Set_Damage and Get_Damage in data chest and also an existing COMPARTMENT_ID_DAMAGE, do you know in which circumstance these would apply?

I don't know, but it could be worth some more tests.

and I've found this in EXTRACTINFO.LOL:

Code: Select all

SetAmount = function(l_13_0)
  MTG():EffectDataChest():Set_Int(COMPARTMENT_ID_PARAM_AMOUNT, l_13_0)
end


That's used for amounts of tokens or counters: look at Doubling Season.

[gorem2k]

For some reason having a gauntlet in play, Shock deals 4 damage as it should but Lava Axe deals 5 only, not 7.

2 / 5 = 0,4 (0,4 may be rounded down for integer 0)
0,4 + 1 = 1,4
1,4 * 5 = 7

EDIT: this not worth the effort. lets hope if theres a DotP2015 edition the devs wont remove Multiply().

Hey, I have a question.

Is there a way to shuffle your graveyard, or somehow allow Charmbreaker Devils to search a card from your graveyard at random? My code for it just takes the top instant and sorcery spell and put it into your hand, but is there a way to actually randomize this?

I haven't tried but maybe you could add this to your graveyard filtering section

Code: Select all

filter:EvaluateObjects()
filter:GetRandomEvaluatedObject()

Ghoulraiser is an official card and does exactly what you want, just with Zombies rather than instants or sorceries.

I haven't tried but maybe you could add this to your graveyard filtering section

Code: Select all

filter:EvaluateObjects()
filter:GetRandomEvaluatedObject()


Yes, that's what's needed. I still suggest to look at Ghoulraiser, just to start from a full example.

The problem is that whenever the card doesn't trigger because the effect controller doesn't control a creature that meets the filter requirements, after I leave the game I get an error message saying that it tried to index a nil value. I strongly suspect that this is because of EffectDC():Get_Targets(2):Get_PlayerPtr(0) in the last two RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTIONs not being able to find a target because the trigger didn't make it. Anyone know of a way to stop the code from continuing to execute beyond the part when the card tries to see if you have a creature that meets the card requirements, and the card can't find one?

Thanks!

Rather than writing

Code: Select all

local target = EffectDC():Get_Targets(2):Get_PlayerPtr(0)

try to write

Code: Select all

local target = EffectDC():Get_Targets(2) and EffectDC():Get_Targets(2):Get_PlayerPtr(0)

If the first operand of the "and" is nil, the interpreter doesn't bother checking the second, and no error will be thrown. If it's not nil, the second operand "wins" and the value of the latter gets stored into the variable.
The general rule is:

Code: Select all

nil and something = nil (with no processing on something)
something_not_nil and something_else = something_else

I know it's not obvious and I had no idea of this rule before pcastellazzi told me some time ago, but Lua works this way. The "or" operator can be used in a similar way but I can't remember exactly when it's useful, the "and" is by far the most useful in order to prevent nil value indexing.

A short question:

Does GetBlockVictim() affect both blockers and creatures blocked or just the creatures blocking the effect target/source?

[thefiremind]

Does GetBlockVictim() affect both blockers and creatures blocked or just the creatures blocking the effect target/source?

Sometimes I make confusion about that function, too. The "victim of the block" is the blocked creature, so creature1:GetBlockVictim() should return the attacker that creature1 is blocking. The problem is that, unlike in previous DotP games, there's no guarantee that each creature blocks only 1 attacker, and if a creature blocks more than 1 attacker at once, I'm not sure about what GetBlockVictim() will return... maybe the first one, maybe one at random, maybe it crashes the game.
If you need to retrieve all attackers blocked by a creature you need to be a little more creative... search for Gomazoa in the Formal Request Thread and see how I retrieved all creatures blocked by Gomazoa.

[GrovyleXShinyCelebi]

Going back to GetBlockVictim(), I wonder (and this is just a "nooby" assumption) can you put a value to GetBlockVictim() (i.e. GetBlockVictim(0), GetBlockVictim(1), etc) and then get all the block victims that way with a combination of counting a filter of all creatures attacking and "for i=0, (count-1) do"?

Sorry for these questions, I'm just trying to find a way to code Gaze of the Gorgon, and I'm looking for an efficient method to retrieve all creatures on the other side of combat with the "EffectController():Get_Target(0):Get_CardPtr(0)" and store them in a data chest.

One more noob question, what's the difference between EffectSource() and EffectSourceLKI()?

I don't think that the developers modified GetBlockVictim() so that it can accept a parameter, since they didn't have to use it for official cards.

Sorry for these questions, I'm just trying to find a way to code Gaze of the Gorgon, and I'm looking for an efficient method to retrieve all creatures on the other side of combat with the "EffectController():Get_Target(0):Get_CardPtr(0)" and store them in a data chest.

Gaze of the Gorgon seems very difficult to me... if you could play it only before blockers are declared, it would be similar to Gomazoa, but playing it after blockers are declared leaves no time to make triggers that save creatures blocking or blocked by its target, so it would need to save all blocking or blocked creatures and then pick the ones pertaining to its target after the target is chosen. RiiakShiNal's ObjectDC could probably be useful for this task. I'd like to hear more ideas about Gaze of the Gorgon from the other modders before going through this route.

One more noob question, what's the difference between EffectSource() and EffectSourceLKI()?

LKI stands for "Last Known Information". LKI pointers keep the information about the card before it changed zone. As long as the source is in the same zone as it was when the ability went on the stack, the 2 pointers are identical; when the source changes zone, EffectSource() gets wiped, while EffectSourceLKI() still has the old information (power, toughness, counters on it, etc.). Note that protecting a pointer results in a totally different effect: the pointer is preserved anyway, but it contains the new information about the card after the zone change.

Doesn't work, it messes up the multiple choice.

Next, I tried using a FILTER block followed by a RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION block:

Code: Select all

    <FILTER filter_id="0">
       local filter = ClearFilter()
       filter:Add( FE_TYPE, OP_IS, CARD_TYPE_CREATURE)
       filter:Add( FE_CHARACTERISTIC, OP_HAS, CHARACTERISTIC_DEFENDER )
      </FILTER>
      <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION filter_id="0">
        local triggerPlayer = EffectController()
         triggerPlayer:BeginNewMultipleChoice()   
        triggerPlayer:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "RSN_MODE_PRODUCE_R")   
        triggerPlayer:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "RSN_MODE_PRODUCE_G" )
         triggerPlayer:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "RSN_MODE_PRODUCE_U" )
    triggerPlayer:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "RSN_MODE_PRODUCE_W" )
         triggerPlayer:AddMultipleChoiceAnswer( "RSN_MODE_PRODUCE_B" )
        triggerPlayer:AskMultipleChoiceQuestion( "MODE_CHOOSE_ONE" )
         local result = triggerPlayer:GetMultipleChoiceResult()
         EffectDC():Set_Int(i, result)
      </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
      <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION filter_id="0">
         local result = EffectDC():Get_Int(i)
          if result == 0 then
              RSN_Produce( "{R}", 1 )
            elseif result == 1 then
              RSN_Produce( "{G}", 1 )
            elseif result == 2 then
              RSN_Produce( "{U}", 1 )
           elseif result == 3 then
              RSN_Produce( "{W}", 1 )
           elseif result == 4 then
              RSN_Produce( "{B}", 1 )
          end
      </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>

It was a good concept, but then I don't know where should I declare "i" (being the variable that will allow each pointer to be stored in a different place).

Anyone have any tips on this?

I actually just gave jacque the full code to Axebane Guardian (tested/working):
