thread status update bumping

[Aswan jaguar]

I can confirm this bug from your savegame it is radical.I couldn't pinpoint which synergy makes it not to work correctly.A couple of times it worked fine when I firstly attacked with it and then used it's own ability to mill but not always with success.

[Aswan jaguar]

Describe the Bug:
Ethersworn Adjudicator can't be targeted (is considered as illegal target colour)by spells that target coloured-blue targets when in play,unlike all other coloured artifacts that work fine.
It has same behaviour with the phyrexian mana coloured artifacts who are bugged,too.

Which card did behave improperly ?
Ethersworn Adjudicator

Which update are you using?(date,name)Which type(Duel,Gauntlet,Sealed Deck)
ML.3 AvakynV2

What exactly should be the correct behavior/interaction ?
Ethersworn Adjudicator can be targeted

Are any other cards possibly affected by this bug ?

[Aswan jaguar]

Testing this I saw that every coloured artifact that works as it's colour and can be destroyed from spells that target that colour, aren't recognised as artifacts to the spells altering cost as Etherium Sculptor and vice versa.

[stassy]

Same bug as Moltensteel Dragon I suppose

[stassy]

bumping for more info and a savegame:

If you target 1 or 2 Ooze, effect is normally resolved
If you target 1 Ooze and 1 player, error window pop and targeted creature get the notarget status
If you target 1 or 2 players, effect is normally resolved
If you target 2 players and 1 Ooze or 2, game crash

AJ, could you make me a "table" to summarize what doesn't function for the colored artifacts you tested ?

[Gargaroz]

Probably the Chandra code was bugged, I tried a new tweak now, we'll see whit the upcoming patch.

[Aswan jaguar]

List of coloured artifacts that can't be targeted on battlefield by spells that target that colour.(Active Volcano,Slay,...)

1) Ethersworn Adjudicator = Works fine with Etherium Sculptor.
28/7 EDIT 13) Ethersworn Canonist = Works fine with Etherium Sculptor.
14) Shardless Agent = Works fine with Etherium Sculptor.

All phyrexian mana ones: They aren't considered as artifacts from altering cost cards like Etherium Sculptor,too.(tested only some, probably true for all).= fixed

2) Cathedral Membrane
3) Moltensteel Dragon
4) Pith Driller
5) Porcelain Leggionaire
6) Slash Panther
7) Spined Thopter
8 ) Thundering Tanadon
9) Vault Skirge
10) Birthing Pod
11) Rage Extractor
12) Norn's Annex = fixed colour

List of coloured artifacts that work fine with (Active Volcano,Slay,...) but
aren't considered as artifacts for Etherium Sculptor and don't cost less and most probably with all cards altering mana cost for artifacts:
1) Architects of Will
2) Esper Cormorants
3) Etherium Sculptor
4) Magister Sphinx
5) Master of Etherium
6) Master Transmuter
7) Sphinx of the Steel Wind
28/7 EDIT 8- Sharuum the Hegemon

Describe the Bug:
When I copy Fireblast (alternate cost) with Fork, Fork doesn't copy it

Which card did behave improperly ?
I think it's Fireblast, but please check Fork too

Which update are you using?(date,name)Which type(Duel,Gauntlet,Sealed Deck)
ML.3.0 Avacyn V2 CirothUngol's Version

What exactly should be the correct behavior/interaction ?
Fork should be able to copy Fireblast without any problems

Are any other cards possibly affected by this bug ?
I think no

Describe the Bug:
Multiple Bugs -
1) Using Fork, Twincast, or Reiterate on another copy spell (Fork a Fork) results in an infinite loop that doesn't crash the game, but crashes out the stack. The error is something like "AddCard: No space left in cd space"

2) Using Fork, Twincast, or Reiterate on a Buyback spell prompts you for Buyback on each copy.
a) Buyback is part of the cost of the spell, so is already taken account for w/ the copy.
b) If you DO choose to Buyback the copy, you then get EXTRA copies of the card in your hand. ie: Capsize + buyback, FORK, (ask me to Buyback, I do so), I then get 2 copies of Capsize in my hand

3) Using Reiterate on any spell prompts you for Reiterate's Buyback on each spell copy. I assume this is happening b/c the game engine is putting another Reiterate on the stack (as a copy of the spell) instead of another instance of the spell being copied.

Which card did behave improperly ?
Copy spells
Buyback spells

Which update are you using?(date,name)Which type(Duel,Gauntlet,Sealed Deck)
Cithungologsole's zipped version 20120527_v2

What exactly should be the correct behavior/interaction ?
1) Forking a Fork should allow you to choose new targets for the copies, instead of just targeting the copied spell. IE: Lightning Bolt <- Fork targeting LB <- Fork targeting Fork (as is the limitation of the ML engine) should resolve to LB, LB copy #1, then Fork targeting Fork, and Fork Copy #1, waiting on target. At minimum, taking into consideration the limitations of the game engine, it should result in LB, Fork#1 targeting LB, Fork#1 LB copy, Fork#2 targeting Fork, and Fork#2 copy (a copy of LB)
2) Buyback is part of the cost. Copies should not prompt for Buyback. Per Fork ruling clarification "10/4/2004 You need not (and may not) pay any additional mana or other costs (like sacrifices) to use the spell which is Forked. You get control over a complete copy but can change nothing except the targets. "
2a) You shouldn't get extra buyback cards in your hand. Per Fork ruling clarification "10/4/2004 If you copy a spell for which Buyback has been paid, you get nothing back since the copied spell does not have a card to give you. "
3) Additional copies on the stack are copies of the targeted spell, NOT copies of Reiterate, so there's no Buyback. Also, see #2.

Are any other cards possibly affected by this bug ?
Reverberate
Mirari? Didn't check.


I have a headache. Good luck fixing this one. Google should hire you if you can fix it.

[porphyre]

FYI - I just tested w/ an old version I have. I think it's Manalink 2.0... No "rules engine"... I tested in Shandalar. Fireball + Fork + Fork = 3 Fireballs. So it didn't let me choose a target for the 2nd Fork's copy, but it copied the original spell rather than the Fork. No infinite loop.

[stassy]

/mindblown confirmed, though what did the AI in response was awesome : after the error I generated using a deck filled with Ancestral Recall + Fork + Twincast in a mirror match, the bf got cleared and...AI casted Fork on all this mess and dropped an Air Elemental



Also debug removed RuleEngine and tried again (Ancestral Recall > Fork > Twincast), and the Forked ancestral recall worked, but AI answered again with a Fork and game crashed.

[stassy]

confirmed on your save, it seems to be that :
- when there is only 2 Mountains in the bf, Fork will not trigger
- when there is only 3 Mountains in the bf, Fork will make Fireblast do only 2 damages
- when there is more than 3 Mountains in the bf, Fork will make Fireblast full damage

[stassy]

Unfortunately, just tested it and the ultimate no longer do damage to any creatures/players targeted and can only target up to 3 creatures before trigger into nothing
