Update 27 - Ability Editor


  • Ability editor now available in the card editor.
  • Added test button in card editor that will start a match with the current card.
  • Buffs are now displayed.
  • Settings renamed to options since it contains more than settings.
  • Start animation can now be disabled in developer settings.
  • Turn animation speed added to accessibility settings.
  • Some settings are now stored in a settings.ini.
  • Improved error messages on lua errors.
  • Adjusted popup background color.
  • Fixed issue with + in descriptions.
  • Fixed issue with dropdowns.
  • Fixed issue with CTRL+S in editor.
  • Other small things.

So... I got a bit distracted. I kept thinking about an ability editor and tried putting something together, it went so well that I decided to work on that first.

The way it works is that you either write the ability you want, or just click the options it shows you to create the ability. Only options I have specified will work, and it still needs a lot of work. However this is much easier than a full blown code editor, you can look at the lua files if you want that.

Here's a video showing it:

Currently there are more than 40.000 variations, assuming you have 10 tags and excluding the numbers you can insert.

  • 5 events
  • 5 effects.
  • Targeting minions with tag, stat, ability, aligments.
  • Optional if with 1 check for now.

For the next update, I will focus on expanding the options and moving existing abilities to this new system.
