Formal Request Thread

[Coyoto]

Thanks again Riiak

It works now... it seems that I messed up when repacking the mod

Sorry for th disturbtion and many thanks to have spent time... thanks for your proposal but it's not worth it... next time I'll be less stupid... or not... coyotos are dumb

PS: I'll change the card name, it was expected. This one was just a first shot ... a friend of mine is still finishing the arts.

Big kisses guys

[MC Brodie]

One thing that causes a crash in the beginning of a match is having a card in your deck with a color that isn't supported by a basic land in the deck. For example you have a card that costs but no islands. This may not be your issue since your card costs and I don't think the game checks activated abilities. It could be another card causing you problems but I doubt it since you said you tried it in a working deck.

However on your tokens I see you have "<COLOR value ="A"/>". Is that an acceptable parameter for a color value? For a colorless artifact you don't need to have the <COLOR /> tag so try deleting that.

[NeoAnderson]

So you suggest to use it into a ZONECHANGE_TRANSITION or ZONECHANGE_BEGIN?

A ZONECHANGE_END would be the best: you don't want this to happen before Titania's Song really hits the battlefield.

And i have to use anyway RemoveFromParent() function into a resolution block?

Yes.

Ok Fire, it doesn't work, probably the problem is inside the function RemoveFromParent(), because it detach the equipment, but it remains behind that card, it moves just a little bit.
I tried to don't go over that card with the mouse pointer, and the game continued to work for a while, i was also able to attack with all the cards using the button attack with all, i would see if after attacked the equipment would be reorder in a right layer but nothing.
I think we cannot do so much to resolve this problem, because it depends of internal functions.

3. Do you think is possible to code : Goblin Artisans
I was thinking it can be coded using a datachest, but i am not sure. The main problem is how to check if a card into the stack under your control is already target of another card with the same name of Goblin Artisans.

This card is pretty interesting. I like the art. I tried using Riiak's Object DC functions and this code seemed to work. Since I was only testing a portion of the card the front half of the target definition needs to change but the lua condition and play time action seemed to work. If I understand the card correctly, even if you win the flip and draw a card you still cannot target the spell with another copy of Goblin Artisans. If you use this you might want to use a different compartment ID. I just picked one at random. Also, I think Riiak's Object DCs are cleared when you change zones so you shouldn't need to clear the DC yourself after the artifact spell resolves/is countered.

Edit - On a side note, what do the last two parameters of the Lua condition filter actually do (i.e. filter:Add( FE_LUA_CONDITION, 1, EffectController() , EffectDC() ) )? They don't seem like they actually do anything. In all of the cards I've checked the third parameter is always EffectControll() and the fourth is EffectDC(). In one case (Daybreak Coronet) the fourth parameter was not provided. Oddly this card also has 0 for the target ID, filter condition ID and the second parameter of the Lua condition filter. That doesn't seem like it should work.

Thanks my dear friend, i was following a similar path with Riiak Object function, but i was trying without Lua Condition, and i had some problem but we made a similar reasoning.
Anyway i tried your code and i also change the target part to make it compliant with the card, it seems to work. I think is normal that the Goblin can target more than one time the same artifact spell, because the text says "another creature named Goblin Artisans" so if this is ok, the card works.

I have finished to code The Antiquities set, there are only 8 cards not coded :
Battering Ram
Bronze Tablet
Golgothian Sylex
Mishra's War Machine
Primal Clay
Urza's Avenger

I think i am not wrong if i say this card cannot be coded, if anyone knows how to code one of these you're welcome to explain.

[RiiakShiNal]

It works now... it seems that I messed up when repacking the mod

Well, at least you got it figured out and it was something simple. Simple problems often mean simple solutions so in this case simple is good.

Also, I think Riiak's Object DCs are cleared when you change zones so you shouldn't need to clear the DC yourself after the artifact spell resolves/is countered.

That's right, I tried to make my ObjectDC functions work as similarly to the DotP 2013 ObjectDC() as possible and making it "clear" when a card changes zones is easy because the card pointer to that card becomes nil (allowing that register to be automatically cleared and re-used when necessary).

It is entirely possible to code Golgothian Sylex and once I get the update to manual mana finalized Mishra's Workshop should also be possible.

Golgothian Sylex is possible because you can filter cards based on card name (not localized name, but the name in the CARDNAME tag). As such you just need to create a filter with all the names of all the cards in the set (and not tokens) and force them to be sacrificed. Relatively simple, but annoying to make.

For Mishra's Workshop I'm working on adding conditions to the mana tokens with a relatively simple way to set those conditions.

Thanks for your answer my friend, About Mishra's Workshop i understand the situation is similar to the discussion we had about Metamorphosis, so if you will make these modifies to the mana tokens will be more easier to manage cards like these.

About Golgothian Sylex i know that solution is the same thing i thought when i was making the Arabian Nights with City in a Bottle, i decided not make it so for a simple reason.
This solution will works only with prefixed card names, so for example that card could work with my set, but if you use another with another mod it can have problems.
Try to think to a card who is part of Antiquities, but also inside other sets, the Card Name should be the same so it will be automatically under the effect of this card also if it shouldn't. Obviously to avoid this issue we could add e suffix to each card name part of a set something like "Card name_XXX" where XXX is the id of the set. But this solution as also bad aspects for example a particular card have interaction with the card : "CardName A". If CardName A, is part of Antiquities, Seventh Edition, Classic Sixth Edition, Fifth Edition, Fourth Edition, Revised Edition, we have to check for CardName A_AQS, CardName A_ED7,.....
You can understand this is not so good for implementation. On the other side if we could have a function who retrieve the Expansion info from the card tag, these kind of cards will be easier to implement.

2. Please could you take a look of my previous post, the one with the discussion with fire about Titania's Song and Reverse Polarity i would receive your opinion.

Actually, in DotP there's no expansion: we write it in the card's XML but the game doesn't use it for anything at all. So I'd say you would have the right to reinterpret the text for Golgothian Sylex and City in a Bottle, if you want. If you base those cards on card names, you could imagine them as affecting any card that was in those expansions, no matter where the actual card comes from.

About Titania's Song, I don't know what else to suggest. I was expecting RemoveFromParent to work flawlessly. Maybe the fact that the equipments became creatures interferes with it.

I figured that my friend for this reason i decide to skip the coding of that cards .
Ok about Titania's Song, i just made a test, i coded a test card with the abilities :
- to remove from parent target equipment.
- to remove the subtypes and abilities
- to add the creature type
- to add the subtype equipment

I have understand something :
1. When we put onto battlefield a Equipment it is ordered inside the common artifacts.
2. When we equip a creature the first time it seems to change layer and moves behind the creatures layer.
3. If we remove from parent the equipment it is detached, and it returns to the common artifacts layer
4. If we add a creature type to an equipment attached or not the game freeze.
5. If we remove the equipment subtype and then add the creature type it works.
6. if we add the equipment subtype to an creature type the game freeze.

So the only possibility to make this effect works seems the one who require to clear all the subtype equipments before to apply the effect.

With the follow code Titania's Song works

I never made a request, so I dont know just the right way to do it.

In my case, I will just recommend some cards to have in mind that will open new strategies.

Iron Maiden
Ebony Owl Netsuke
It will be fun to combine them with Prosperity and all kind of rise spells like Evacuation.

Distorting Lens
Also fun to combine with some spells already in game like Red Elemental Blast or other protection color mechanics.

I dont see many control creatures in blue in any mod.
Overtaker
Dominating Licid
Barrin, Master Wizard

For last. One enchant:
Trade Routes
Also good in any kind of deck. Maybe to build a deck of lands who transform into creatures with Amulet of Vigor and Exploration

There are just some few cards that will open new kind of decks.

I never made a request, so I dont know just the right way to do it.

In my case, I will just recommend some cards to have in mind that will open new strategies.

Iron Maiden
Ebony Owl Netsuke

I coded some of these cards :
Iron Maiden

Prosperity
About Evacuation you can find it into TFM mod.

Now i have a question for my skilled friends.
When we have a cost who includes "sacrifice" or "discard" or something similar, and we use <COST type="Discard".....> <COST type="Sacrifice".....>...
When we have a Target block because the effect is applied on a target, there is a way to display the cost query first?

I know that if i remove the target block and i put the code into a resolution block with ChooseItems it will be displayed after the cost query, but this is the only way or there is any tag to order the query priority? Target block have always the higher priority?

No, there isn't, because that's the way the game works: choose targets first, pay costs later. Sure, things would work even if you asked for the costs before asking for the targets as long as you still pay the costs later, but you aren't allowed to do that, and to be honest I'm glad you aren't, otherwise it would be confusing. It takes some time to get used to Glare of Subdual asking for the target before asking for the creature to tap as a cost (people don't read the query text everytime), imagine how hard it would be if some cards did it the other way around.

Thanks a lot Fire, hey have you seen what i made with Titania's Song ?
Please let me know if you think my version of Reverse Polarity can be ok.

I also coded the other requested card : Dominating Licid
I would just say this was the first time i coded a card who turns from a creature type to an enchantment aura, so it will be better to have also the opinion of my talented friends, i just want to be sure i haven't miss something or some interactions.
