Title: [Formatting] Split cards
Post by: arcueid on November 08, 2018, 12:18:41 am

Hello,

About <cost=MANA COST> formatting:

• Split card mana cost is a kind of average of both halves. I would like to specify the one to be used for statistics.
• How to describe mana cost for hybrid symbols ?

Is there anything I missed about formatting ?

My example is a card like "Discovery // Dispersal (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Discovery+%2F%2F+Dispersal)" or "Expansion // Explosion (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Expansion+%2F%2F+Explosion)".

Thank you for support,
Alex.

Hi Alex,

Thank you for letting me know about this. I have just updated the mana cost override (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Override) function so that it will now calculate the CMC based on your custom mana cost. To specify hybrid symbols you need to use the two-letter code enclosed in {}, like this: {WU}

I hope this answers your questions?

Hi Nils,

Fine ! This solves completely my issue.
Is it possible to add these information to formatting help, or maybe a link to an external url ?

Good idea! I have just updated the formatting help text to include this:

Quote

Define different mana costs for a card by putting "<cost=MANA COST>" at the end of the line. Enclose each symbol in { } and use two-letter codes for hybrid mana. For example: cost={WU}{U}
