I would like to take over the updating of the warlords plugin.

Yeah I was looking to get an actual pile of cards to graphically show on the table, like in a designated spot on a game board. So instead of drawing from the gamezone, you could just click the pile on the board.

Is there really a "pile" function in Lackey? I didn't see that in any of the tutorials I read so far.

I'm creating a plugin but can't figure out how to get a deck to show on the board.

It seems like I have to "play" a card to get it to show on the table.

Is there a way to have face-down deck piles in the table area?

You play a card to table by dragging it to the table, just like you would do with a real card.

As far as "piles" of cards on the table, those are done with zones. You can think of zones as "on the table" or not. That's just a mental abstraction. Everything with real life cards is on the table, except your hand perhaps. But if you want something like a proper pile with mechanisms for card order and shuffling and similar functions, that's implemented as a pile.

My main problem was that my plugininfo.txt was not built at all. Proud of myself for making progress.

I still need a way to load decks onto certain areas of the board upon startup.

I'm making another thread about getting decks on the board at all...

So the MTG plugin has had the incorrect rarities for some of the new cards for a while.
Most or all of the Uncommon split cards are listed as Rares

Thinking about adding a hierarchy of Effects & Restrictions based on power levels. Something like

0000-1000: 3 Effects
1001-1499: 2 Effects
1500-1799: Effect
1800-2399:1 Restriction + 1 Effect
2400-++++: 2 Restriction + 1 Better Effect

(Restrictions are a condition or cost in addition to any condition or costs the card may already have).

Cards may be worse than these guidelines but must never be better basically.

Actually, I'm starting to appreciate the tribute system now.

I have been wanting a Fluxx plugin for quite some time now, but haven't had the time/energy to go through with it all by lonesome.

If you would (or can find someone who would) do the plugin setup, I could be inspired to stop being lazy and scan card images for the base game (Version 3.x I wanna say, but I can check), Pirate Fluxx and Zombie Fluxx.

Afterwards my friend and I would happily aid with the playtesting as well.

Thoughts?

I don't know anyone who would be willing to do the plugin and I don't know if I want to.

I'm extremely new to Lackey and am working on a new plugin.

The initial starting setup needs to have three fixed decks.

There will also be multiple other decks added to the table, different for each game.

I can't figure out how, even in Solitaire, to load/add a deck to the table. I can't get a stack to show up anywhere on the screen that I can draw cards from. I'm probably missing something stupid.

This is for Marvel Legendary, if anyone's interested in helping.
