Not possible right now, the closest we have is MagicDeclareBlockerAction, i.e.

Code: Select all

// assuming attacker and blocker are defined earlier
game.doAction(new MagicDeclareBlockerAction(attacker, blocker));


However that would cause Ætherplasm to trigger again which it shouldn't. Will add in a new action that doesn't cause "whenever .. blocks" to trigger. For now, use the MagicDeclareBlockerAction first, we'll fix the script when merging the card.

Combination of two new features in 1.41 allows this card to be completely described in card script, without groovy script.

1) New "lord" ability
2) All abilities can be granted (previously only keyword abilities can be granted)

This groovy stuff is totally groovy. Fantastic progress melvin and associates!

Magarena is just kicking my butt lately. With all the card and deck variety now I never know what the AI is going to throw at me next.

@Huggybaby: Thanks for the encouragement! Converting all the existing cards to Groovy was a mammoth task, I'm glad we pushed through on that so that card scripters can see how every card is implemented.

As a little helper for finding a similar card as a starting point I added search functionality the Project Firemind that lets you search in the cards abilities (original text) and shows you the Magarena scripts for it. Hope this is useful to someone.

http://www.firemind.ch/cards/search

- do we have someway to apply "tap an untapped ... creature" to pay a cost of ability before? i see many interesting cards use this "tap" to pay a cost of its ability.
- is there a way to change the property of a card while its on the battlefield? beside changing power toughness, including name, casting cost, color, type, or add new ability into it / remove all abilities from it?
- how to script "discard a creature card:..." as a cost of an ability? filter?
- need MagicTargetChoice.SACRIFICE_NON_VAMPIRE() please...
No such property: SACRIFICE_NON_VAMPIRE for class: java.lang.Class <magic.model.choice.MagicTargetChoice>

thanks

I do something very similar when implementing cards. I open up a text file containing the rules text for existing cards and use it to search for similar cards. Thanks for the nice work

Not possible at the moment but doable. Any specific card you are looking at?

chagne Name - no
change Casting cost - no
change Color - yes, https://code.google.com/p/magarena/sour ... age.groovy
change Type - yes, same as above
add Ability - yes, use permanent.addAbility or flags.add (sorry for the confusion, will improve this in the future)
remove ability - yes but only those in flags for now using flags.remove
