Forge Beta: 6-5-2015 ver 1.5.40

[KingBiggie]

Added screenshot, see attachments.
No matter how much I try, I am unable to cast my 2 spells exiled with my Stolen Goods and copy of Stolen Goods. Fleeting Distraction and Geist Trappers would have saved my game there.

I am unable to cast it from my enemy exile zone, nothing happens when I click the card
Same thing on my own exile zone: unable to select or click the card.

Any help would be appreciated.

I fixed Stolen Goods in a way that makes it work but has a couple side effects (in particular, the card will visually appear to be castable by the opponent even after the effect is really gone, and the choice for casting the card includes options to cast it not only without paying its mana cost but also with paying the mana cost). There should be a better way to fix this but I'm not sure how + there's a much bigger problem deeper in the code that I'll bring up in the bug tracker.

Did you actually extract the package? According to the modified date, there has been a change to those files since January.

If I understand correctly this card is working properly right now under certain situations? And if so, how do I actually cast the spells in those situations? I've chosen not to draft it for now until it works properly, but it is one of my favorite cards for Commander so I'd love to see it working 100%.

Yes, basically, starting with the next beta (or the current SVN nightly build) the card should work [at least mostly] properly. To cast cards exiled with it you just click the opponent's exile zone and click the card there, it should allow you to cast it. You should also be able to do the same from your own "flashback" zone but personally I usually don't rely on that.

Using the "Online Multiplayer" option with a friend. We're using Hamachi to try to connect and we'll connect for a split second before a message pops up, "Connection to the host was interrupted." We have allowed it past the firewall and have even tried connecting without Hamachi. Is this a bug or are we doing something wrong?

Altar of the Brood pops up a dialog that lists the card it mills each time it triggers. This gets extremely tedious after a while. Compare with Mesmeric Orb, which (mercifully) has no such popup.

EDIT: Phenax, God of Deception also has this annoying popup.

Playing against Gold Finger.

I play Cavern of Souls and choose the type "beast".
I then play Thragtusk tapping the Cavern too, and I expect it to become uncounterable, yet he plays Dismiss and counters my spell.

It may be relevant that I used Forge's auto-tap for mana feature?
That has to be it I'd guess.

Yeah, Forge's auto-tap feature is very convenient in situations where the choice of how to pay mana doesn't matter, but you shouldn't trust it in situations where it does.
