Card Creation Request Thread

[alejandrohiraldo]

Thank you so much Thefiremind!! I've done quite a lot of testing after applying your modifications and it works perfectly!!

Here is the wonderfull card Wall of Roots for any other person that needs it. My thanks go to Thefiremind and RiiakShiNal for helping in the making of this card. For people who may not know, you need all the files in the .zip for this card to work on your deck. Including the 01_FUNC.LOL file.

*Edit: Just replaced the zip file as I noticed the card had the wrong cost (I had it this way for testing purposes). Fixed now.

OK I'm still on precursor golem.

I need to ask this, after you copy a spell, how to you force it to target something without asking?

This is the trigger I've written:

Code: Select all

<TRIGGER value="BECAME_TARGET">
 return ((TriggerObject() ~= nil and TriggerObject():GetSubType():Test( CREATURE_TYPE_GOLEM ) ~= 0 and SecondaryObject() ~= nil and SecondaryObject():GetNumberOfTargets() == 1 ) and
( TriggerObject():GetCardType():Test( CARD_TYPE_INSTANT ) or TriggerObject():GetCardType():Test( CARD_TYPE_SORCERY )))
    </TRIGGER>

Just as a reference, I'm posting the code for DotP2012 Precursor Golem:

  </TRIGGERED_ABILITY>

as I said before, this card was coded for a challenge, where it can't possibly interact with every kind of card, but just with the cards in that challenge. That made things easier for the developers.
As you can see from the code, the trigger condition checks for Get_Targets(0) (but what if the target was in Get_Targets(1) for example?). In resolution, the target of the copy is forced with SetTargetCard, which again I'm pretty sure changes only the target in register 0.
You can try to reuse parts of this code if you want, but I can't guarantee that it will work for every kind of instant and sorcery.

Hello again, I'm having a problem with preordain when scry 2 the cards asking to put on the bottom these are going to the top.

Are you absolutely sure? I can't see anything wrong. Anyway, if you want to make scry easier, I made each action into a function, so there's much less to write (and debug).

Extract this ZIP file in DATA_ALL_PLATFORMS/FUNCTIONS (create the folder if it doesn't exist yet):

SCRY_FUNCTIONS.zip

(1004 Bytes) Downloaded 402 times

Then "scry 2" will be achieved with just this code:

Code: Select all

    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    Scry_ResolutionTimeAction1(2, 0)
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    Scry_ResolutionTimeAction2()
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    Scry_ResolutionTimeAction3()
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
    Scry_ResolutionTimeAction4()
    </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>

The first argument is the scry number, while the second argument is the first target chest that the function will use (if your ability just scries once, without choosing any other target, you can leave it to 0, I made this choice possible because of Cryptic Annelid).

thanks again thefiremind, worked perfectly with the function and the code you shared. I can now release my update

[nekrose]

I would like to humbly request that someone please make a Dread Slaver card. it would go perfectly with my mono black zombie deck . I would be very much obliged if such a thing were made possible, thank you for your time ^^

It shouldn't be difficult if I start from a similar card, like Blood Cultist. I'm working on it.

EDIT: There you go! I didn't test it, but since it's a fusion between Blood Cultist and Rise from the Grave, I'm pretty positive it works.

Thank you so very much, kind sir! much appreciated <3 I will test it out right away

Hi guys,
I have an idea for a neat deck, but I need Armadillo Cloak and Enlightened Tutor to finish it. can anyone help?

thanks in advance

There you go! As always, not tested, and I have been a bit hasty this time so if there's something wrong, let me know and I'll fix it.
Armadillo Cloak is from DotP2012, and was probably already been re-coded by RiiakShiNal, but I understand that you may want to avoid downloading an entire mod for just one card.

[loookaz]

thank you kindly for such quick response:)

i will try tomorrow to post my deck if time allows it.

cheers

Nope, I haven't re-coded cards from DotP 2012 (because I never really messed around much with that one), but I did re-code all the cards from DotP 2010. Besides I believe someone else was working on DotP 2012 (I thought it was kevlahnota since he did the wayback 2012 campaign).

I knew I would have made confusion between 2010 and 2012...

Hey guys,

I've been searching the forums looking for Capsize and Gaea's Blessing but I haven't had much success. If they haven't been built, can anyone help? Thanks.
