Forge Beta: 05-06-2013 ver 1.3.15

[alfax]

Looks like the the engine is ignoring Curse of Exhaustion for the second spell cast via Possibility Storm. I'm led to believe that this combo should be a lock on casting anything from hand, since Storm permits them to cast the second spell, not just put it on the stack. Current Forge behavior is resolving the post-Storm spell.

Related: Forge is not thrilled by casting after putting a second Possibility Storm in play.

Description: [I attempted to cast Pacifism on a creature when there were two Possibility Storms in play. First effect resolved successfully, second caused this crash.]

I'm not 100% sure this is a bug, but I've played a couple of games where the computer got to attack *during my turn* and I could neither attack nor block. I didn't see any card in play that would allow it to do so, or know of any that permits this?

Could you give some more info? What was on the battlefield? Did you set some phases to skip?

Description: AI tried to use Shuriken (owned by me, controlled by AI)

Description: AI played Nightsol Kami (I suspect it's Kami of Fire's Roar trigger)

Both fixed! Thanks lsdmaster.

Developer Tab is just going missing. If I use it for anything, in the next game and every one afterwards, it is missing. In preferences, it's still checked. I have to restart forge to use it again.

Did you try resizing the panel?

Has anyone else noticed that populate doesn't work for the computer when its an activated ability? I find if I ever face an opponent using a vitu-ghazi guildmage or a Trostani and they try and populate a token, nothing happens.

Also i noticed that the new DGM card Legion’s Initiative is giving the +1 bonuses to red and white creatures for both players, not just the controller of the card.

Both have already been fixed.

[musicexam]

There's a problem with Increasing Vengeance.
I cast Searing Spear (or any burn spell that targets), and copy it with Increasing Vengeance. It resolves, and I get prompted to choose a target. If I don't target anything (aka mash space bar), it resolves and does nothing.

The Gatherer ruling states that all properties are copied, including the target, but I can choose a new one.

Edit: I'm also having problems with the disappearing Dev Panel. And yes, I did try resizing the panels.

Description: Was playing a game with Karn Liberated and used his restart ability. Then this crash happened. Anyways, it seems that the ability has resolved because I can finish the match after the message. Everything seems to have resolved as it should, so no idea what's the problem.

Edit: Tried again, happened again.

Another thing: If I am forced to play Scorched Ruins (e.g. through Druidic Satchel), I have no option to not sacrifice two lands. Which leads to situations like being forced to sacrifice one untapped land but Scorched Ruins still going directly to the graveyard (as it has to). I'm not sure if I'm right but I think there should be an option for choosing not to sacrifice anything according to the cards text, shouldn't it?

Scorched Ruins has a replacement effect that is not optional. You have to follow the instruction as much as possible, so you have to sac a land.

We have received several reports about a Null Pointer Exception crash report which contains the following info:

java.lang.NullPointerException
at forge.gui.match.VMatchUI.populate(VMatchUI.java:###)
at forge.control.FControl.changeState(FControl.java:###)

We currently suspect that this is a thread misuse issue. This will cause forge to crash eventually on some systems. Once the SwingWorkers that start different types of matches are refactored this problem should be fixed. The problem with a match starting with a blank screen will also be gone.

What can I do in the meantime?

Hm, I'm looking over the rules of replacement effects right now, but can't really find what you said (could be my bad english though, hehe). Well, I guess I just trust you with this
Thanks.

Basically it comes down to whether or not the word "may" appears. Look at a card like Abundance, when you are about to draw a card you don't have to replace it with digging through your deck. But with Scorched Ruins you have to do as much as the card states. There's no option to sacrifice nothing. So you sacrifice 0, 1, 2 lands depending on how many you have, and then if you sacrificed 2, it ETB normally.

[Questioner]

The effect of Life and Limb is not applying to creatures made saprolings through Xenograft unless Xenograft entered first. This applies both to creatures already out and new ones entering the battlefield.
