Card Creation Request Thread

[SoulStorm]

Beautiful Firemind, many thanks! I'm always amazed by how fast you can pump these cards out.

[SoulStorm]

Firemind, I have the preliminary deck finished. All the cards you coded today seem to be working great. However, I'm also using your Darksteel Ingot, which seems to always be one turn behind in understanding what cards I'm able to play. If you could take a look, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks again!

Thanks again!

My Darksteel Ingot (together with my Birds of Paradise) was created for a sunburst deck, where the only thing that counts is to have 5 colors available as soon as possible, so it just produces the color you are missing the most, and in case of multiple missing colors, it doesn't care about the spells in your hand (it just chooses the first one it sees missing). I didn't create a version that cares about what you need because it would always be incomplete: I can check the colors in the cards' costs, but not in the abilities' costs.

Ok, well, I tried cludging together a version that would let you select the color by using the dual lands as a template. However, for some reason I can only choose W, U, or B.

Here's the relevent code:

Any thoughts?

Multiple Choice Questions can only have 3 answers, try using ChooseColour() instead. Or if you really want to use multiple choice take a look at my Choose Creature Type code as you would have to iterate or at least have multiple multiple choice questions.

With your guidance I was finally able to get the card to work correctly.

Many Thanks!

Is there any chance someone could make Urza's Mine, Urza's Tower, and Urza's Powerplant?

[SoulStorm]

I spoke too soon regarding Darksteel Ingot. Although the card functions as it should, it somehow kills the AI as soon as it hits the battlefield.

Here's the new code:

[RiiakShiNal]

Hmm.... I'm not sure what could be causing it as this is a problem that has plagued us for a while (some cards cause the AI to stop thinking/working) with no real answer as to what causes it.

As for possibilities you could try changing the cost from 0 mana cost to an empty generic to see if that makes a difference.

Code: Select all

<COST type="Generic" />

You also probably don't need LKI_shield_effect_source="1" since you are using ObjectDC() and not EffectSource():GetDataChest().

[SoulStorm]

I tried your suggestions, but to no avail, what a strange bug.

[thefiremind]

If you really need a working "add one mana of any color", you may want to check the solution found by pcastellazzi in his own mod.

Firemind, I believe I now understand why you coded the Darksteel Ingot the way you did. All other paths lead only to insanity.

When I transferred the relevant data for pcastellazzi's Bird's of Paradise over to the Darksteel Ingot, I ended up with the same AI bug I had before.

In order to try to track the bug down, I started with the code for Bird's of Paradise and slowly stripped away anything that isn't Darksteel Ingot. When I removed everything I could that didn't break the AI again, I transferred over any code from Darksteel Ingot that upon testing didn't also break the AI.

This is as far as I could get without breaking the AI:

Either the function the allows Birds of Paradise to work is incredibly narrow, or I'm missing something (which I wouldn't rule out).

You are missing something for sure... but I'm missing it too, so you should wait for help from pcastellazzi. Try to drop him a personal message, just in case he doesn't visit this thread very often.

I messaged him a short while ago, thanks for the suggestion. The worst part is I just went through a similar ordeal working on a mod for another game.
