Card Bugs / Re: Reckless Coin of the Realm
25 March 2024, 05:37:26 PM
It's incorrect to say that Coin of the Realm is never discarded from play.  Are you sure that your Coin of the Realm wasn't returned to its pile when it was discarded from play after you had called it from the Tavern mat?

Card Bugs / Re: Inn + Patron

I didn't get the coffers when I shuffled patrons back into deck when gaining Inn. Inn is in the list of reveals: https://wiki.dominionstrategy.com/index.php/Reveal
Patron now only triggers if it is revealed in the Action phase ('When something causes you to reveal this in an Action phase (using the word "reveal"), +1 Coffers.'), an errata that was introduced when the Pursue Event came along.

It can be done (manually) by the developer, there is no way this can be between the account holders themselves. I contacted jpsMN via private message to tell them what is needed.

I tried to contact jpsMN but got no response. Too bad this is not easier, as I also have a friend I would like to gift a subscription to.
jpsMN is the person who was wanting to give a subscription, not the developer, so that would explain why you didn't get a response.  My guess is that Ingix will contact you now that he knows that you also want to give a subscription.

Card Bugs / Re: Shepherd looks at discard pile
24 October 2022, 09:03:30 AM
I'm fairly sure I've played in games where cards I've discarded for Shepherd have caused a reshuffle.  I'm also fairly certain that I've never been shown my discard pile on such occasions, so I suspect it's going to turn out to be an error in the game log.

My opponent plays a Shepherd, discards some victory cards. There's a line in the game log that says they're looking at all of the cards in their discard pile. There's no reason for this, right? Maybe it's just a game log issue but it seems like there's no reason for Shepherd to be causing a look into the discard pile, right?
Is it perhaps the case that the Shepherd draw is causing a shuffle of the discard pile and your opponent has either bought the Star Chart Project or has favours available to spend on Order of Masons or Order of Astrologers?

Bug Reports / Re: Displace+poiton
04 October 2022, 05:15:35 PM
No.  The Potion card costs 4, so you can gain a card costing up to 6.

If you were to Displace a Vineyard, which does indeed cost a Potion, you would be able to gain a card costing up to 2+Potion.

I'm already setting 6 as a minimum level, and the games are in fact, nominally, at levels 6+. Where's the "wait for expansions" options? I can't see it anywhere.
Maybe "wait for expansions" isn't shown if one has a core subscription.  I'm fairly sure it exists if one has no subscription, but I'll have to wait for my subscription to expire in four days to confirm that.

I'll revise my prior guess to being that you're being drawn against other players that have specified 6 as the minimum level but do not have a full subscription.  In that scenario the specified levels of the two players would match and it would only be after the pairing had taken place that the system would discover that no cards from level 6 upwards were eligible to be selected.

If the above guess is correct, then players with a core subscription need to be offered a "wait for full subscription" option when setting up their automatch.

My guess is that you are being matched against players that either have no subscription or nothing more than the core subscription.  Perhaps selecting the 'wait for expansions' option and setting 6 as the minimum acceptable level would get round this.  I'm sure Ingix will provide the correct answer.

According to my records Pirate Ship was indeed in level 6.

Thanks.  That was to be my fallback if there wasn't some way (unknown to me) to manage to do it from just one account.

Presumably you have had a lot of practice using two accounts when trying to reproduce bug reports!

Once one has loaded an old game, is there a way to play both of the hands?

I recently resigned a game because my opponent seemed to lose their connection when in what looked very likely (but not certainly) to be a winning position.  Out of curiosity I've subsequently loaded the game with me playing as them, which has enabled me to see that they were about to have a poor turn.  But with Lord Rattington playing what would have been my hand, it's impossible to discover whether my opponent's poor luck could have been converted into a fortuitous win for me.

Would an 'Allow deprecated cards' option on automatch be possible?  Not with the intention of deliberately matching against another player with the same setting, but merely to allow deprecated cards to be part of the selection for the Kingdom if both the players have set the option.

Hmmm . . . interesting.  It definitely did not work for me.  I even tried (using Undo) a few different times, just to see what was going on.  But each time, after making and acting on my Charm decision, my Buy phase ended (which, obviously made it Lord Rat's turn).

Glad to know that it was an anomaly.  If it crops up again in a Charm kingdom, I'll make sure to test it out.
You say "after making and acting on my Charm decision" (my emphasis). That might reveal what you are doing wrong.  After making your Charm decision, you should continue to play your Treasures.  Only after you have played all that you want to play (which might well include making decisions for more Charms) should you buy anything.  At that stage the consequences of your Charm decision(s) will take effect.

I'll add another weird lockup, not so that it can be investigated (I'm sure it can't), but just to add to the mystery...

I had to make two discards (if I recall correctly it was because of a Dungeon played on the previous turn), but after I had selected the two cards and clicked on 'Confirm', I found myself still facing the 'Discard two cards' prompt but unable to do anything.  Working on the assumption that my browser was to blame, I refreshed the page.  I was somewhat puzzled to find myself now looking at a screen that mentioned an undo request, but before I could decide what to do (I was busy sending a chat message to my opponent to explain that the delay was because I didn't know what my browser was doing), my opponent accepted it, and I now found myself back in the buy phase of my previous turn.  An exchange of chat messages with my opponent revealed that he had received a request to undo 15 steps!  Fortunately he could remember not only what I'd bought on that turn but also what he'd done on his turn, so we were able to play through to the point at which I had to discard two cards at the start of my next turn again.  This time there was no problem.

Maybe this experience indicates that there is a bug in the client that is very dependent on what has happened previously.  Perhaps something like a memory management bug.

2. I was playing last night and there were some very weird display issues with displaying cost reduction. My opponent played a Highway and the cards in the supply did not change cost a lot of the time. Then sometimes he would buy a Highway and THAT card in the supply showed as having the appropriate reduction but none of the other supply cards would show the cost reduction.
I encountered a similar problem yesterday.  On my opponent's turns the cost of Destrier (as seen by me) was not being updated when he gained cards during his turn.  I assume that it was being properly updated for him (it certainly was for me during my turns), given that he successfully bought reduced-cost Destriers on several occasions.

I use Firefox on Ubuntu.  Like Adam I'd got the impression recently that the game was laggy, but I'd been inclined to attribute that to the age (14 years) of my Dell PC.  I probably still am inclind to attribute it to that.  My guess is that the client is now more compute-intensive than it was in the past, something that would certainly be much more noticeable on old hardware.
