Card Types
If you add the IsiahCGCCardTypes plugin to your project, you can specify one or more custom Types to each Card which give you access to a whole host of features that could be useful for a card game.
Defining Types
You can define Types in the plugin parameters of IsiahCGCCardTypes. Each Type must at least have a Name. It is optional to draw the Name on the Card, have a default Icon and have a Card Base that corresponds to it.
Once a custom Type has been defined, it can be given to Cards to give them its default properties and the Type can be referenced in Card Actions.
Skills/Items
| <Card Type: type_name> | Replace “type_name” with the name of the Card Type (case sensitive) that you want this skill to have. A Skill/Card can have multiple Card Types, using multiple instances of this notetag. |
Ensure that all Types you plan to use are in the Card Types plugin parameter.
Any skill which contains the <Card Base: file_name> notetag from IsiahCardGameCombat will use that specified Card Base instead of the one specified by this plugin.
With the IsiahCGCCardTypes plugin, you also have access to these Card Actions:
| Card Action Syntax | Description |
|---|---|
| Draw X Type Y | Where X is a number and Y is the name of a Card Type, the game will search the player’s deck for cards of type Y and draw the first X amount of them. |
| Discard X Type Y | Where X is a number and Y is the name of a Card Type, the game will search the player's deck for cards of type Y and discard the first X amount of them. |
| Remove X Type Y | Where X is a number and Y is the name of a Card Type, the game will search the player's deck for cards of type Y and remove the first X amount of them. |
| Mill Until Type X | Where X is the name of a Card Type, the game will discard the top card of the player’s deck until a card of card type Y is on the top of the deck. It will not draw or discard this card - these actions would be a separate notetag. |
Note: All spellings of card type names are case sensitive.
