The thing that makes the collectible, to me anyway, is again, the
flavor text. "Storms over Matsu Palace" has the story of the battle on the flavor text of the cards and to my knowledge, does not appear in any other sets.

Surely there's a way to make it collapse *under*...

Hmmm... I notice that Portal cards in the Magic collapse
over 'regular' prior editions in Magic like 4th Edition (effectively making the Portal cards MRPs which I am pretty sure they are not). Is that a mistake?

Shouoldn't be a problem; IIRC, the inventory stuff is delineated by set.
I know that for MND, we forced the demo decks and such to the bottom of the list, but then again, I am not a prgorammer. Nor can I type, as you might be able to tell by the numerous typos. Odd, that, especially consdiering I am finishing my third novel. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kuni Tetsu" <kuni_tetsu@yahoo.com> To: cv@support.wolflair.com Sent: Wednesday, December 04, 2002 1:46 PM Subject: Re: [CardVault] Re: L5R > > --- Edward Bolme <edward@bolme.com> wrote: > > "The L5R Experience."

You can change the 'special' and 'order' tags for a card as much as you like without affecting inventories. If you want, you could give them a very low 'special' value (so that they don't interfere with MRP rules) but their proper 'order' value, and make the tag group be sorted explicitly. That way they'd appear in the right order when sorted by release, but would be 'overruled' by all other cards when MRP was being used. The Magi-Nation datafiles do this. -- Colen McAlister (colen@wolflair.com) Lone Wolf Development www.wolflair.com |

It's easy to control which cards collapse under or over within CV data
files (just set the values appropriately for the releases). However, I think Bob is thinking it would be useful for the newbie to have the cards distinct and shown side-by-side, hence the placement of some extra text to distinguish the card in its name. If all you want to do is have the cards collapse UNDER, then set the values for the SoMP and SoSM releases to be something small and they'll be overridden by cards from any release with a higher number. And it's perfectly valid to CHANGE the release numbers between releases of the data files without it impacting inventory or saved decks (things were designed to accommodate this sort of hindsight smoothly).

The various releases in MtG are simply number incrementally based on date
of release. It sounds like this was an oversight and should be corrected. I'll let Robert know..... Thanks, Rob At 09:05 PM 12/4/2002 +0000, you wrote: >Hmmm...
