Oath of Nissa please.

Not possible, sorry. It's the reason that one wasn't done in the first place.

Oath of Nissa please.

Not possible, sorry. It's the reason that one wasn't done in the first place.

I've seen Oath of Nissa in action in the champion deck from the other day and 9 out 10 times it was used for the search ability, not the mana ability. Maybe that part can be coded?

Also, could you please code Scout's Warning?

Sure thing. Both have been coded but are untested. They'll be available in the next repack. Let me know if they don't work. Oath of Nissa has a note on the second ability that it doesn't function.

Gustcloak Harrier
Gustcloak Sentinel
Gustcloak Skirmisher
Gustcloak Cavalier
Gustcloak Runner
Gustcloak Savior

These have been added. Keep in mind that we do not have a function to remove creatures from combat. Someone came up with a clever way to manage it: forcing regeneration. When a creature regenerates, it's removed from combat. So, grant regeneration, deal lots of damage to it, and it should be removed from combat.

I've turned this into a function which checks if it can be regenerated (makes sure "remove from combat" doesn't turn into "commit suicide" if it's been targeted with Engulfing Flames). If it can't regenerated, it instead tries to force a temporary control switch.

Neither of these will work flawlessly in all situations. If Gustcloak Runner has been targeted by Engulfing Flames while you have a Glorious Anthem, for instance, it'll fail. It can't be regenerated because of Engulfing Flames. So, instead, it switches control to an opponent (or teammate). The moment it does, it'll die since its toughness reverts to 1 and it already has 1 damage.

By and large, though, it should theoretically work in nearly all situations.

I am completely unaware if this would work, but could there be an approximation that allowed the card to grant to all planeswalkers being cast as having all colored mana symbols removed and replaced with colorless? for instance Jace Beleren costs and the approximation would technically make the payed cost instead of 2 blue and 1 colorless. Daxos of Meletis and Psychic Intrusion had similar problems when they were requested (especially since the prior was heavily used in tourneys). This would work especially well if all it did was change the mana cost to the chosen card's converted mana cost in colorless but keep the color. I keep going back and forth on the possibility, perhaps there could be an activated ability on Oath of Nissa to allow for payment as though the mana cost were colorless (for instance: 1 activate ability 2 select planeswalker in your hand 3 tap mana/cast planeswalker).

Search the forums for Mycosynth Lattice. It's been discussed at length, including the above suggestion. It's not possible to keep it rule compliant; it will always have very prominent gaps between what it does and what it should do. I don't like the idea of coding cards with such loosely working approximations. It leads to newer people complaining when the card doesn't work right. With some things like really complicated mechanics, I'm okay with that, since I can just say "delve is really complicated and will never work quite right", but I didn't even code most of those mechanics. Delve, convoke, morph, phasing, restricted mana. While I helped with a few of them to a small-ish extent, they were all done by NeoAnderson.

After all of SOI is done being tested (and OGW, which still needs two sections of cards tested), I'll see if I can go over the discussions about Mycosynth Lattice and try and figure a way to make it work. One of the issues, if I remember was Converge and Sunburst. I'll add it to my to-do list.

ok the next post wont be fore a couple of days i'm going to go through all my cards and the comunity wad and will post them all at once most of these are ... about 2013 core and older.

should i post each version ie Vivid Craig / Vivid Creek or can i post one for an example for the rest that follow?

also i'm pretty sure i can guess why a card like
Mindslaver
isnt in the wad being its takeing over an opponents turn... might not work so well or if it does work will be some very heavy coding to get it to work right...
but yes i have scrwed up someones whole plan with a this...

ok last edit then i get to work

your gonna see some cards you are going to want to play with... some will be easily possible others may not be but i have to at least state one more card on this post

Doubling Cube

Doubling Cube is done... Been awhile since the request. I just noticed it on my to-do list. It's on a separate sub-list I had forgotten about (along with Sigil Captain, but I'd actually done that one).

[Borborigmos]

May I please request the series:

Anavolver
Cetavolver
Degavolver
Rakavolver
Necravolver

If you want to only code 1 or 2 I might be able to do the other with some copy/paste. I think I'm struggling with the general structure. Once I have one card coded, I think the rest should be easier.

Thanks!

[Borborigmos]

I also got the arts for them. Unfortunately, all 5 low res.

Anavolver is done. It's been added to the CW. If you'd like to get started on the others now before it repacks, here's the code.

Note that I did test this and it seemed to work. The normal kicker option appears if and only if one or both of the kicker costs can be paid. If both can be paid, it asks which one to pay or both. LinkedDC():Get_Int(0) will be 1, 2, or 3 if it's paid.
1 means the first kicker cost was paid.
2 means the second kicker cost was paid.
3 means both kicker costs were paid.

I tested all combinations of being able to pay different ones and choosing one, the other, or both. They all worked.

The art is actually already included like most all other art not from new sets. You'll have to check if what's already included is better or worse quality than what you found, though.

[Borborigmos]

Wow Xander, that's amazing. I'll get right on that. Thanks!

Edit: I have coded the remaining 4 and have emailed them to you. I think they work fine, thank you very much.

Having some difficulty coding the second part of Aura Barbs.

This line is missing a colon "EffectSource()DealDamageTo(2, Parent)" -> "EffectSource():DealDamageTo(2, Parent)".
However, the source of damage shouldn't be EffectSource(), and it shouldn't matter if EffectSource() is nil.

Try this.

Thanks Xander, it is working well now.

[migookman]

May I please request the series:

Anavolver
Cetavolver
Degavolver
Rakavolver
Necravolver

If you want to only code 1 or 2 I might be able to do the other with some copy/paste. I think I'm struggling with the general structure. Once I have one card coded, I think the rest should be easier.

Thanks!

Anavolver is done. It's been added to the CW. If you'd like to get started on the others now before it repacks, here's the code.

Note that I did test this and it seemed to work. The normal kicker option appears if and only if one or both of the kicker costs can be paid. If both can be paid, it asks which one to pay or both. LinkedDC():Get_Int(0) will be 1, 2, or 3 if it's paid.
1 means the first kicker cost was paid.
2 means the second kicker cost was paid.
3 means both kicker costs were paid.

I tested all combinations of being able to pay different ones and choosing one, the other, or both. They all worked.

The art is actually already included like most all other art not from new sets. You'll have to check if what's already included is better or worse quality than what you found, though.

Could split cards (e.g. Assault//Battery) be coded this way also?
