Can I get some help with Court Hussar second ability? Where it must be sacrificed unless you paid .

You can find Court Hussar in my mod.

[Kieran]

Indeed sumomole. I'm such a noob. Thanks! Did anyone see a reason why Flagstones of Trokair randomly freezes? And was Disenchant coded correctly? Alsoe, is this this the enchant nonland code:

| Open

Code: Select all

    <CONTINUOUS_ACTION>
    local attach_filter = Object():AttachmentFilter_Get()
    attach_filter:Clear()
    attach_filter:AddCardType( CARD_TYPE_NONLAND )
    </CONTINUOUS_ACTION>

[RiiakShiNal]

You posted code for Karakas instead of Flagstones of Trokair so no-one can comment on your Flagstones of Trokair code.

Disenchant looks fine to me, I use almost the exact same code for the effect for Nullmage Shepherd and it works fine (Granted the ignore_filter="1" is not needed since no filter is defined).

That is not enchant nonland code CARD_TYPE_NONLAND does not exist and will throw errors. The attachment filter should look like this:

Code: Select all

      <CONTINUOUS_ACTION>
         local attach_filter = Object():AttachmentFilter_Get()
         attach_filter:Clear()
         attach_filter:AddCardType( CARD_TYPE_LAND )
         attach_filter:AddExtra( FILTER_EXTRA_FLIP_CARD_TYPES )
      </CONTINUOUS_ACTION>

Then you need the Spell Ability block to also target non-lands:

Code: Select all

   <SPELL_ABILITY attach_filter="1" filter_zone="ZONE_IN_PLAY">
      <TARGET_DEFINITION id="0">
         local filter = Object():GetFilter()
         filter:Clear()
         filter:AddCardType( CARD_TYPE_LAND )
         filter:AddExtra( FILTER_EXTRA_FLIP_CARD_TYPES )
         filter:SetZone( ZONE_IN_PLAY )
         filter:SetHint( HINT_ENEMY_ONLY, EffectController() )
      </TARGET_DEFINITION>
      <TARGET_DETERMINATION>
         return AtLeastOneTargetFromDefinition(0)
      </TARGET_DETERMINATION>
      <PLAY_TIME_ACTION target_choosing="1">
         EffectController():ChooseTarget( 0, "<Some CARD_QUERY>", EffectDC():Make_Targets(0) )
      </PLAY_TIME_ACTION>
      <RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
         local target_card = EffectDC():Get_Targets(0):Get_CardPtr(0)
         if target_card ~= nil then
            Object():Enchant( target_card )
         end
      </RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
   </SPELL_ABILITY>

[Kieran]

Okay, the Soul Tithe code you provided is giving me an error in this block and reads: EffectController():ChooseTarget( 0, "<Some CARD_QUERY>", EffectDC():Make_Targets(0) ) I think there should be something after QUERY. What should it be? And here is the Flagstones of Trokair code.

Thanks for your help and patience. I'm actually learning.

[RiiakShiNal]

"<Some CARD_QUERY>" is meant to be replaced with a card query string, it is a string that references some entry in a TEXT_PERMANENT file. For example Guard Duty would use "CARD_QUERY_CHOOSE_CREATURE_TO_GAIN_DEFENDER", for Soul Tithe, you may need to make your own which would mean creating a TEXT_PERMANENT entry for it as well.

As for Flagstones of Trokair the only problem I'm seeing is that the Trigger should be ZONECHANGE_END instead of ZONECHANGE_BEGIN since it should activate once it goes to the graveyard instead of before it goes to the graveyard. This could be important if a card would change the target location such as having the card be exiled instead of going to the graveyard.

[thefiremind]

for Soul Tithe, you may need to make your own which would mean creating a TEXT_PERMANENT entry for it as well.

I'd suggest to use CARD_QUERY_CHOOSE_PERMANENT_TO_ENCHANT, already used on Indestructibility. The fact that it must be nonland... well, the card says that, it should be enough.

As for Flagstones of Trokair the only problem I'm seeing is that the Trigger should be ZONECHANGE_END instead of ZONECHANGE_BEGIN since it should activate once it goes to the graveyard instead of before it goes to the graveyard. This could be important if a card would change the target location such as having the card be exiled instead of going to the graveyard.

Actually, all "dies" triggers use ZONECHANGE_BEGIN, this allows them to check for the condition of the card before the zone change (very useful for undying, persist, modular, etc. which were much harder to code in DotP2012 without ZONECHANGE_BEGIN). As I have been able to experiment while coding other cards, the resolution of both kinds of triggers happens when the zone change has already ended. The substitutions of zone changes are made with ZONECHANGE_CONSIDERED triggers which, as the name suggests, are evaluated even before the ZONECHANGE_BEGIN, so no problems there.

I can't see anything wrong on Flagstones of Trokair, but my guess is that the MANA_ABILITY somehow is the culprit. I can't remember having seen other lands with "dies" triggers coded in DotP2013, maybe the AI's evaluation sometimes gets stuck with this combination.

[Kieran]

Okay, I'll start experimenting. As for the mana ability I'll just copy it from another card. The help I've receive from the different people here is amazing. I'm learning so much about modding DOTP.

[gorem2k]

May I request:

Nivix Cyclops
Wakestone Gargoyle
Artful Dodge

I could try Artful Dodge but I don't have a clue on how to give "can attack this turn as though it didn’t have defender." for the other two.

maybe Characteristic_Set( CHARACTERISTIC_DEFENDER, 0 )

I don't want to remove its Defender because this could potentially ensue problems with other card effects.

[Kieran]

Artful Dodge has already been created. It was in the Unblockable Vampires deck. Here is the XML. I'm having trouble finding a HD picture of the art. If you want custom art for it just let me know and I'll re-post.

[RiiakShiNal]

Actually, all "dies" triggers use ZONECHANGE_BEGIN, this allows them to check for the condition of the card before the zone change (very useful for undying, persist, modular, etc. which were much harder to code in DotP2012 without ZONECHANGE_BEGIN). As I have been able to experiment while coding other cards, the resolution of both kinds of triggers happens when the zone change has already ended. The substitutions of zone changes are made with ZONECHANGE_CONSIDERED triggers which, as the name suggests, are evaluated even before the ZONECHANGE_BEGIN, so no problems there.

Not "all" "dies" triggers use ZONECHANGE_BEGIN, for example: Bloodchief Ascension, Dread, Hostility, Purity, Serra Avatar, and Vulturous Zombie (all official cards, though they also say "from anywhere" not just "from the battlefield") all use ZONECHANGE_END for triggering on their move to the graveyard. So maybe there is a difference between the two triggers for some cases. Then again it could just be another example of WotC doing misleading things.

Though I didn't know about the substitutions being done on ZONECHANGE_CONSIDERED (though it does make sense), probably because I haven't coded any instead abilities for zone changes (though that really isn't an excuse, I should have known better ).

[thefiremind]

This is another example of how much complicated Magic has become: I really didn't think about those cards, but I read the Gatherer rulings for Purity and they say

Although this ability triggers when the Incarnation is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, it doesn't *specifically* trigger on leaving the battlefield, so it doesn't behave like other leaves-the-battlefield abilities. The ability will trigger from the graveyard.

so "dies" (or "is put into a graveyard from the battlefield" for noncreature permanents) triggers from the battlefield, while "is put into a graveyard from anywhere" triggers from the graveyard. I just learned something.

[RiiakShiNal]

Apparently, same here, I did not realize that as well.

[NEMESiS]

Does anyone have Hindering Light, Survival Cache, Overrule or Vanish into Memory?

[Kieran]

RiiakShiNal, thanks for providing the link to the deck the Crazyabdul requested. However, I'm missing two cards. These are the final cards I need to finish the deck:

Infinite Assault

Long-Term Plans
Spellshift

Infinite Combat

For the second deck I need the following cards:

Basal Thrull
Blood Pet
Oona's Prowler
Overeager Apprentice

Shriekmaw
Sins of the Past

If these can't be coded can some suggest some good replacements? Thanks in advance!

Also, can I request Darien, King of Kjeldor. Holy Justiciar, Kazandu Blademaster, Luminescent Rain, and especially Magus of the Disk / Magus of the Moat.
