Hi, this is my first thread here.
I'm making a custom set for a RPG, to make powers more accesible.
Since this is my first time making a template, i used "magic-m15-future.mse-style" as my base template and started tweaking it to match my needs.
Playing with the design i found that the "Future node" field of the "Future Sight" template (The circle logo in the upper left corner representing the card type) served me very well for my cards, and proceeded to expand it with my custom values...
It's important to note that there is no longer a correlation between the "future node" and the card type.
My problem is that it's very tedious that the card list cannot be sorted by that field, since it's one of the most important ones...
I thought of 2 solutions:
1) Find some way to make the editor see that field.
The problem with that could be that it isn't possible without modifying the core program. There are a lot of fields to filter, and there is even one called "Type Symbol", that always shows "multitype".
Just found that this is returned by a function named "typesymbol_for(type)", that returns the value for the card type. The problem is that i don't know how to refer to the "future node" field. If that were possible, my problem would be solved.
2) Script that field value to another field, visible by the card list
This could be simpler than the previous option, but i'm not that used to this type of scripting...
Sorry for the long post, but i've been fighting with these for a few days and already getting frustrated...
Thanks in advance!
