Hello ~
I have started working on a project with a friend and found MSE very useful and handy.
I want to use it more, and I will anyway.
But the project being to build a set revolving around 3 mana colors I started digging to see how I could make that work.
I'm no code expert but I can tinker my way around, so that's what I've been doing for the past few days.
I have to admit though that I'm starting to see the limits of my capacities.
My goal was to see if I could implement 3 custom mana colors.
What I managed to do is :
- implement placeholder frames
- implement placeholder custom mana (the small ones on the text of the card)
- sort of implement them for the cost of cards but for a reason I don't understand yet it only works if there is a "/" in front ... else it doesn't do much.
I tried using the custom "V" mana slot, but it didn't work that well, so I resorted to putting my hands in the grease of the code.
I've been digging in this forum quite a bit but a lot of links are dead and even using wayback machine I have trouble understanding some stuff.
And I'm starting to spend a lot of time correcting mistakes I'm making as I go, so maybe it just isn't made for that or I have to admit I needd help.
If anyone is interested in the less technical aspects of the project :
This set color identities are :
Truth : canon, story,
Charm : hedge, change,
Strange : void, potential,
Our goal is to use this as another medium for our universes to collide and to create something together.
And to have a narrative progression by working on at least a couple of sets.
