Trying to find out if there's a resource on the members of preset variables like set and card.
Specifically, I'm trying to figure out how to access the index number of a card in a set, rather than the alpha ordering that is used by default (set.card[1].name will be the top entry if you sort by name)

I've read it several times, it doesn't specify all of the attributes available in a particular preset. |

In-general though, I think my problem is specific to the fact that the way MTG Set Editor, at least with its MTG Templates, sorts in the Export All function is the actual culprit. I'll just have to manually save.

Well, afaik, that card arrangement is actually random up until you sort them with the script file. Normally in MTG you can do that just fine, although sometimes you actually need a "custom arrangement" on some of the cards.
That being said, I have no idea if the Export function contains access to said script file. But it does give you access to fields which can be scripted. That's your best bet.
You can introduce a {card.serial2} which will be programmed in script to give you what you want. For example, my actual serial arrangement for a custom CG goes like this, rather than purely by name.
card_serial :=
{
if card.rarity == "PR"
then
input := set.set_id + "/" + set.subset_id + "-" + "PE" + to_string(pr_card_number(), format: ".2d") + " " + card.rarity
else if card.rarity == "(Alternate Art)" and rarity_or_copy() == "PR"
then
input := set.set_id + "/" + set.subset_id + "-" + "PE" + to_string(alt_pr_card_number(), format: ".2d") + " " + card.rarity
else if card.rarity == "TD"
then
input := set.set_id + "/" + set.subset_id + "-TE" + to_string(td_card_number(), format: ".2d") + " " + card.rarity
else if card.rarity == "(Alternate Art)" and rarity_or_copy() == "TD"
then
input := set.set_id + "/" + set.subset_id + "-TE" + to_string(alt_td_card_number(), format: ".2d") + " " + rarity_or_copy()
else
input := set.set_id + "/" + set.subset_id + "-E" + to_string(card_number(), format: ".3d") + foil_shortcut() + " " + rarity_or_copy()
}
which basically let me define own "numbers" to foils and copy another, or have a different numbering altogether if it's "TD" or "PR" rarity.
PS: You can try it, if it does allow access to scripts, then {card_serial(card)}.png should work.... and so should something like {custom_index_of(card)}.png

By "you can try it" do you mean putting all of that into the editor box?
