Troubleshooting

1. The UI looks weird
   1. Try to reload the page.
   2. Try to use a different browser (we develop on Chromium v113).
   3. Turn off 3D render mode.
2. Game doesn't start after connecting to the address where the game opened
   1. Check whether the port is occupied (Multiple games opened)
   2. Check whether the firewall allows the ports.
3. I Can't Play a Card / Trigger an Effect
   • Check if you meet the card's conditions, like the Guard keyword.
   • Double-check that you have targets available.
   • Remember, "You" usually just refers to your character, not any allies.
   • Make sure your identity matches the card requirements (like you can't play "44046" in Hero Form).
4. Some Card Values Are Wrong
   • You can edit the data/cards.json file to fix values, but be aware that changes will stop you from sharing save files or reporting bug.
5. This Game Is Too Fast; I'm Confused
   
   • Use the slider on the right sidebar to change the speed.
   • You can see what’s happening by checking the Log; press the Tab key or click "Log" in the sidebar.
6. I Hit "Cancel," But an Error Pops Up
   • Make sure you’re not exceeding your hand size.
   • Check if the game is asking you to select something you don’t want to, like "50067a" needing you to pick a minion.

how to play single player with multiple heroes?

请问图包怎么更新？我下载了首页的图包，没有冬日战士和猎鹰的图片。

This game looks intriguing, but even if I read the rules, I cna't figure out what to do or wher ot go to even start making a deck let alone play. I am too brain damaged to understand. Proves this is not for me.

Made an account to just come on to here and tell you that I love what you have done and I've been playing your digital version since summer of last year when I discovered it. But I was curious, is there any possibility for an Android based version? I'd love to be able to play this on my phone or tablet as well.

I am unable to start the game, I keep getting this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "main.py", line 7, in <module>

  File "engine\engine.py", line 120, in EngineRun

KeyboardInterrupt

[PYI-1424:ERROR] Failed to execute script 'main' due to unhandled exception!

I try to reload and “Empty Cache and Hard Reload” but nothing changes. Here is a look the deck editor.

Maybe the log says something that can help??
