Missing Cards from older sets

Hi all,

New to the forum but not MTG or xmage. Absolutely love the software thank you for everything. I do have a couple questions, how come some cards from older sets are not implemented like an example would be lava burst in ice age. I’m just curious. Also mutate, I’ve seen this talked about but are the devs actively working on implementation or is it a dead issue? Macros, dead forever or sidelined for now? Last question, how can I implement cards and do I need to know Java extensively? Thanks to the devs for everything they are doing with this software!

Nobody knows? Was this addressed in another forum?

You should join the XMage discord if you want quicker answers. And I most likely won't be reading this forum again in the near future either.

As for your questions:

1. Lava Burst is rough because of the unique un-redirectable damage clause. Not impossible to implement but nobody has bothered.

2. There's a relatively complete implementation of mutate as a pull request, but it's still suffering from problems with zone changes of the mutated cards, and nobody has been able to fix those.

3. No idea about macros.

4. If you're interested in development, here are some general instructions. And some instructions for implementing cards.

5. Card implementations aren't rocket science, but they're some sort of science still. You need to know java or be willing to learn.

One cannot deny the sentimental value attached to these older sets. Each card carries a piece of gaming history, capturing the essence of a bygone era. The thrill of opening a pack and discovering a rare card from an older set is a unique experience that resonates with collectors. It's not just about the gameplay; it's about the stories and memories associated with each card.

To master every situation and manage the appearance of tags in a flexible way, one thing is for sure, you must know Java

Tags also help you quickly both access related events and view the tag distribution for a set of events.
