Changelog:
Full changelog can be found on my Trello, but here are the highlights:
- Added dev comments to all gameplay tags and removed unused tags
- Added descriptions to all remaining classes
- Created global function for adding to a status capped to its max value
- Pressing RMB while dragging a card now returns it to hand
- Friendly Name of heroes no longer need to match their row name for hero selection to function
- “Spawn and Play Hero Card” from BPML_Card now applies appropriate modifications to the spawned card such as from Strength
- FIXED: Card removal on hero minion death was not working properly
- FIXED: Attempting to unbind an event that was not bound would still call some logic associated with unbinding
- FIXED: Splash icon now rotates to face the camera if the camera moves.
- Split the Puppet UI into a top and bottom section. This allows their position to stay constant relative to the Puppet if you move the camera.
- New card status that auto plays a card on draw and then draws a new card.
- Removed blank gameplay tag variables and Game Instance being passed as payloads in Events as such dummy variables are no longer needed in UE5.3.
- Removed unused TransferTag input from SpawnAndAddNewCard interface function.
- The Draw Card function now returns the drawn card as output.
- FIXED: Potential memory leak in “Access Targeting Class Lazy” in BP_Card.
- Cards are now shrunk and moved to the side out of the way when used.
- “Get status value” interface function.
- FIXED: If minions were killed by their own card it logged several warnings.
- FIXED: If an invalid status widget was selected for displaying a status an error would get thrown. Now it is simply not shown instead, as intended.
- FIXED: Attack pattern with a value of 0 would not advance.
- FIXED: “ResolveCallEvent” always returned false if calling a specified actor.
- FIXED: “AddNewCardToPile” with a higher effect value than 1 added multiple references to the exact same card instead of creating duplicated cards.
v1.2.2 (UE5.1, live 22.01.23)
- FIXED: Playing in standalone crashes the game when opening node map (does not affect PIE or packaged projects).
- FIXED: Sword puppet had collision profile set to Overlap instead of Pawn, causing card targeting not to work with it.
- FIXED: Clicking on a card to drag it with no mana permanently disables the end turn button (until you click anywhere).
- Simplified the stat cost use rule. It now only looks at the stat for that specific use rules and not other rules for the same card. This will also prevent use rule costs from multiplying for each use rule included.
- Added Enhanced Input.
- Event.Action.Draw is now again called when cards are visually drawn.
- Defaulted all out attack to 99 mana (in practice only affects mana number color).
- Parameterized card transfer frequency in card transfer component
