Altruism bug and interface suggestions

    Altruism works on self-target. (new to this build.)

    Are there plans to improve the chat / history box?
    Can you add an option to expand it? It can be difficult to scroll through that tiny little window if there are a lot of modifiers firing off.

    Can you add color-coding or indenting or something to the chat box to make it clearer what's an action, modifier, chat, etc. And a filter for chat-only might be nice.

    Is there a way to see which challenge mode you're currently in? Sometimes I get halfway through a battle and can't remember which one I picked. So I don't know if I should risk one character dying or not.
     
    irongamer and Zalminen like this.

    You mean you get to draw a card when self-targeting a card?

    Please repost your suggestions and questions into the "questions and feedback" forum, thanks.

    just jumped into an adventure to test out this alturism "bug" and in my case it is working as intendedn, might there be a specific instance where this is not the case crux?

    I can't reproduce it now.
    I don't remember the exact circumstances when I saw it. It's possible I was confused.

    And it happened again. Here's the history text:
    Kronbok heals Kronbok, but also heals an enemy. Whoops!
    Kronbok is altruistic -
    Altruism failed!

    heh, interesting...looks like bungled heal triggered altruism.

    Yeah, I can even see a kind of logic to it. You are healing someone else, after all.
    However, you are not "Playing a holy card targeting an ally other than yourself", so the pedant in me says it shouldn't happen.

    Bungled Heal also causes blocks by enemies.

    Yeah, and it's awesome. Just today, I almost managed to bounce a Bungled Heal off an enemy Goblin to get a "free" healing on my Priest.

    Yeah, but not as fun in pvp - when it rinses out your only block (AND you dont get the heal) and the opponent isn't even aware of it. Kinda... d'oh moment.

    Then I'd say "be aware of it." Until and unless they change the "cards played by allies don't trigger Blocks; cards played by enemies trigger Blocks" code, then everything like this is to your advantage to use. Use it with gusto! And glee!
