Hey ya'll Me and a friend have been trying to implement this mechanic for a while now. It's called Landbond, it's pretty much what you'd expect; it's like Landwalk, but it gives creatures a static +1/+1 based on the number of a specified land type you control. However, there's a problem we've been running into, and it has to do with plains with additional types. It always prints the extra S and for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to make it not do this. And since I honestly have no clue how anything works on the scripting side of things, I was hoping to be granted an olive branch. Thanks in advance    |

Also, something that I identified in my fenagling that appears to be a general MSE issue: If you try to put it in line with other keywords, forestbond specifically generates a space between forest and s. This also only happens if the walk/bond is lowercase specifically. I know this isn't something I did, because the same applies to forestwalk, and no other landwalk ability. Like I've seen jank in my day, but this has gotta take the cake.

That first if/then is only gonna process on an exact match. "Snow Plains" does not exactly match "Plains".
Edit: That said, what you want is something like this: {this_or_that_("creature", upper:true)} gets +1/+1 for every three {if match(param1.value, match: "land$") or contains(Param1.value, match: "snow") or contains(Param1.value, match: "basic") or contains(Param1.value, match: "legendary") then {to_lower(param1)} else param1}{if not contains(param1.value, match: "Plains") then "s"} on the battlefield.

 Well, that's certainly a big help, though now if you put the supertype, it doesn't print the back end at all. Is there maybe another case I can slot in to fix this?  |

That's weird. I don't know why the Phyrexia that's happening. Um... it's kinda stupid, but maybe this? {this_or_that_("creature", upper:true)} gets +1/+1 for every three {if match(param1.value, match: "land$") or contains(Param1.value, match: "snow") or contains(Param1.value, match: "basic") or contains(Param1.value, match: "legendary") then {to_lower(param1)} else param1}{if not contains(param1.value, match: "Plains") then "s on the battlefield" else "on the battlefield."}
