Card Creation Request Thread

[sumomole]

Maybe it's a stupid advice, but I would try this:

Code: Select all

...
    player:AskNumericalChoiceQuestion("CARD_QUERY_CHOOSE_AMOUNT_LIFE")
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    EffectDC():Set_Int( 10, Object():GetNumericalChoiceResult() )
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    local filter = Object():GetFilter()
    local total = EffectDC():Get_Int(10)
...

I tried, it's useless.

I tried, it's useless.

I'd say, try to rewrite the ability as you would do without knowing about Mire's Toll. It could help.

In the meanwhile, look at what I made... I just tested it with Shock, it would need a much more extensive testing before calling it right, anyway, I'll leave the tests to those who need the card.

EDIT: Version 2 fires the BECAME_TARGET triggers for each creature the copied spells are about to target (the copies don't do that by themselves). It's still not perfect, though, because the FireTrigger function accepts only 2 parameters so I can't set the SecondaryObject (and to be honest I wouldn't know how to get a pointer to the spell copy after creating it). This means, for example, that Ashenmoor Liege will never trigger off a spell copy from the Nephilim.

[Necropotence]

a question! as I can do to edit and build decks for dotp2013, is there a software or a tutorial? I want to do the same as you, to learn how to assemble cards, decks and contribute to the forum! I hope your answers. thank you!

[AriesKiki]

May I request Beacon of Creation? Thanks

Yes, maybe it's easy to recode, I only want to find the wrong with above code, and to avoid the same mistakes in the future.

I remember it's an official card in D12.

Try to target a Golem with Fling while you have Precursor Golem on the battlefield, and see what happens (spoiler: nothing will happen).

Howcome? I didn't try it yet but I can't see why it wouldn't deal its damage.

Assault Strobe + Berserk, would it work?

YES! I will begin testing now! Thank you so much!

Now can anyone make any of these for me?

Thank you all again for all your hard wizardly work .

[thefiremind]

Howcome? I didn't try it yet but I can't see why it wouldn't deal its damage.

This code is based on a very strong hypothesis: the targets of a card are always in sequential registers and they always start from 0. For example Fling can't be copied by Precursor Golem because it uses register #0 for the sacrifice. So, I can answer now:

the code of Precursor Golem has any bug?

Yes.

Assault Strobe + Berserk, would it work?

It depends on how the cards are implemented. Of course, having a better implemented Precursor Golem would be better than relying on the other cards to be coded in a certain way...

[MalevolentZero]

So just ran it in a deck with:
Go for the Throat: Working as intended.
Fling: No bugs so far. (as in doesn't trigger when sacrificed but i haven't tested it as a target yet)
Giant Growth: Working as intended.
Prey Upon: Working as intended. (as in doesn't trigger)
Rite of Replication: Working as intended (LOL but crashes the game when i kicker rep over 100 Prodigal Pyromancers xD)
Scarscale Ritual: Working as intended. (as in not triggering)
Heal the Scars: Working as intended.
Unsummon: Working as intended.

Looking great so far thefiremind .

These are good news. I managed to make a good work because Ink-Treader Nephilim was actually much easier than Precursor Golem: when the Nephilim triggers you know that one of the targets is him, so you just have to check that there are no other targets (my implementation always checks registers from #0 to #9, and the following ones only if there are no empty ones in between) and remember the place where the Nephilim is saved inside the spell registers. When the trigger resolves, each copy of the spell has the right target put exactly where the Nephilim was on the original spell.
Precursor Golem, on the contrary, can trigger on any Golem, this makes things much more complicated, but its code, despite being not perfect, has been really valuable to put me on the right track.

Sigil Blessing

Sigil Blessing is an official card, it's in the Selesnya deck from the expansion.

[Necropotence]

I want to create them, but not how! if anyone knows of any tutorial for creating cards, will thank

Hi, I'm trying to code Gemhide Sliver, but I have a problem with giving the mana ability to other slivers. Although with another slivers I can choose the color of the mana, they can't tap to produce it (I'm using a code from Birds of Paradise). Thanks in advance!

Code: Select all

Sigil Blessing

Ooh! *Grabbed* Thanks again!
So i just realized soul's fire doesn't work the way I want on In-Treader Nephilim, so I'm taking it off the list. I also found Sheltering Word to be much better than Soul's Grace, so it has been replaced. I also replaced Twitch, so that's off the list too!

I'm still looking for:
Dune-Brood Nephilim
Orochi Leafcaller
Traitorous Instinct
Chromatic Lantern
Gavony Ironwright
Privileged Position

If there are any more that i might have missed from the DLC's or if someone has already made any of these let me know! I can be a scatter brain sometimes and miss things T.T.
