Forge Beta: 11-29-2013 ver 1.5.6

[drdev]

Thanks for the new version! While I appreciate the change to filtering, it still doesn't work quite as I would want it to.

I usually decide I want to build a deck with certain colors. I then filter out all the colors I'm not playing. The recent change has the (great!) effect of not showing me tons of cards I can't play in the colors I want to play. However, it does now filter out cards with hybrid costs (like Deathrite Shaman) if I filter out one of the two colors. This hides cards from my view I'd like to see.

For example, I want to build a mono black deck, so I filter out all other colors. Now I don't get to see the Shaman, although I could very well play it.

So I've got something working now in the latest source. I didn't end up needing to separate hybrid and multicolor cards as I thought I might. Instead, I came up with a way that hybrid cards, split cards, and phyrexian cards will show up so long as the card can be cast using only selected colors. For split cards, each side of the card is checked individually, so Life // Death will appear if either or is selected.

Note that if the multicolor button is deselected (such that multicolor cards are filtered out), hybrid and split cards with multiple colors will still be hidden. However, to improve usability, I made it so right-clicking a color filter button also selects the the multicolor button so hybrids and split cards appear by default, and so 2 color cards show up if you then left click a second color filter button.

Here's a screenshot showcasing that Deathrite Shaman and other Black+ hybrid cards now appear after right-clicking the Black filter button to show only black and multicolor cards:

What do you think?

I'm playing for ante, but I don't see anything on the ante tab during the game. It's completely empty.

[Davor Vitief]

Good work! but i don't like the new constructed layout. Also i have found two bugs; Condescend do not counter spells but scry 2 works, and Detention Sphere do not allways exile ALL permanents with same name, only the one targeted.

There's something wrong with Rout, AI is casting it for free during my turn. I took a look at the script, but I couldn't see the problem. I suspect it's in how Forge deals with the ability "K:You may cast CARDNAME any time you could cast an instant if you pay 2 more to cast it."

Fungal Shambler's cost is written as {4UBG} - standard ordering for wedge cards should be {4GUB}.

[Andy9973]

Thanks a lot for another new version of Forge and for your effort you put into this.

Just like in 1.5.5 though Rune Snag doesn't make the AI have to pay the additional mana when I counter a spell with it.

Edit: It's the same with Syncopate.

I had 4 copies of Ghostly Prison in play. AI had 7 untapped lands, but he attacked me with his Rotting Rats without tapping any lands.

You must have the JDK rather than the JRE version of Java 7 installed on your Mac or you will get this error.
