Deckbuilder Combat System for your games · By
Glad to hear you will be releasing a game with this plugin! We are working to ensure compatibility with all YEP eventually. As of v.1.1.1 we know that it is compatible with:
- Core Engine
- Battle Engine Core
- Action Sequences
- Skill Core
- Buff State Core
- Auto Passive States
- Message Core
- Target Core
- Battle AI Core
For Summoning Actors, we should be able to support that once the Party Battle update has been completed (v.1.3 on our roadmap). We can definitely look into Mobile Compatibility down the line.
If you have some screenshots from your game that you can share, please post them in the Game Showcase thread. We would love to see :)
Hey StudioKamio, as of your most recent update (Version 1.3.5), we have added support for being able to summon Actors into Battle with their own decks! If you are using YEP then it should be possible to achieve this via Eval or Common Event action sequences. There are still issues if you attempt to summon in the same Actor twice (it will work, but it will do wacky things to their deck). We should have these ironed out by the Version 1.4.0 update, but if you needed to prototype this function for your game it is available now!
Recently began to work on a new card game project, and I've discovered that Eli's Bitmap Font is partially compatible with this plugin. The new bitmap fonts get applied to the cards (unlike Victor's SFonts plugin), however, the settings to change the font size in the Card Name and Card Description in the plugin parameters don't work anymore. Therefore, one must find a good font size that's applicable to both the name, the description, and the general UI of the game if they'll be using the plugin.
Hey Percarus, thanks for reporting that in! We can certainly look into extending full compatibility with Eli's Bitmap Font in a near future update. We have plans to work on an extension plugin (after Deck Editor is complete) that allows improved control of all text elements on a card: Cost, Text, Description, Types, Flavor etc. We want to support multiple fonts, word wrap & alignments, variable font size and colors, macro-ing keywords and many other helpful features. Let us know if there is any features in particular you would like to see in this potential extension plugin and we will be sure to try to include it :)
That all sounds wonderful! Besides what you mentioned, the biggest thing I'd love to see implemented into the plugin is a way to control the cost dynamically. Discounting card costs is a common mechanic in card games, and although I tried to implement this in Alyx Ascended, it was done so clumsily since I couldn't show the new cost of the card. It would be a great debuff to players as well, if an enemy could increase card costs, or randomize them, etc.- there's a lot of possibilities with it :)
I'm curranty having an issue with the deck editor and I went to the demo you just posted for help (see bug report thread for more on that) but it didn't help. When I hit edit on the deck it reads as following. Do you know what the issue is/how to fix it?
TypeError
Cannot read property 'call' of undefined
A Follow-up. I had the mentioned problem with the demo fixed, but I am still unable to tell what the issue I'm having is. Here is the full error log. Please let me know if there's some simple fix I'm missing.

It looks like you may not be using IsiahCGCCardTypes, a plugin which comes with both CardGameCombat and DeckEditor. That plugin is currently required for Deck Editor to work. The plugin order should be CardGameCombat, then CardTypes, and then DeckEditor. Let us know if that's what the issue is, or if it's something else.
I've had my eye on this plugin for a while, and I intend to get it when I can. Before I do, I wanted to ask, Is this plugin compatable with the SPRG Gear plugin that's free for MV? I had an idea of making a tactics rpg with cards (for an example, something like neverland card battles, but without the territory control stuff and units all having their own hands)
Greetings. I've got the plugin package a few days back and have been playing the demo a lot, but I found out various errors occuring at seemingly random intervals. One was Focus just crashing the game on use, another one was Mobilize crashing the game, and the last one was on ending my turn, a "_removeAfterPlay is undefined" crashing the demo. Due to these occuring at random intervals, it's very hard for recreate.
Hey TacticianDaraen, thanks for reporting these in! We will keep an eye out for this error. There is a major update coming out in a few days (v1.6.0) which may have already taken care of this issue. Once that update is available, please let us know if the issue persists in which case we can spend some time to investigate the bug and issue a patch to fix it.
