(last updated Feb 15, 2015)

Game Developer,

Thank you for your interest in the OCTGN Game Directory at www.octgngames.com.  Before we can accept the game into the directory, there are some guidelines that you must agree to follow (note that this document may be updated in the future). If you accept these terms, then please send us a copy of the game definition package for review.

- 10 MB size limit on the game definition. Automatic game updates should be fast for the user to install, especially if the game gets updates frequently.

- No copyrighted card images in game package. The feed is hosted on an external service and we do not want to create any trouble for them or for us. Images also contribute towards that 10 MB size cap.  You should be creating image packs for all card images, which is kept external from the game definition on the feed.

GAME EVENTS:

All event names have been changed to follow a past tense subject-verb naming convention. In addition, all events now simply pass an args argument as its only argument, which act as an object type. So instead of having many different arguments for the OnCardsMoved event, you will now do something like this:

def MoveCardsEvent(args):
    card = args.card
    x, y = args.xs, args.ys

OK so as discussed in the chat, this is a rather unconventional "shuffle" method based on the classic 
"marbles in a bag" mathematics problem.  I'm not a pro at cardidentity and the various card model types so 
you'll need to fill in the blanks on that aspect :)

All card piles in OCTGN will consist of two components: an empty ordered list I'll dub 'the Pile' and an 
unordered group consisting of all the cards in the deck which I'll call 'the Bag'.

When you load your deck, OCTGN assigns its identity/model/whatever to all cards in the deck (as normal), 
then dumps the cards into the bag.  The Pile starts out as an empty list with an index equal to the number 
of cards you loaded.  The empty objects in the Pile represent individual cards whose identity is unknown to

1. paste this def below in the dev console
 
def setup(group):
  starting = group[0]._id
  count = 0
  group.shuffle()
  for c in group:
    c.moveToTable(c.width()*(c._id - starting), c.height()*count)
    count += 1

918 player summary tab hard to read
113 hide marker count when n = 1
021 right-click menu accessible in pile view windows

??? allow players to choose different sealed packs than other players
114 rapidly clicking on counters or manipulating markers suffers from lag
143 allow game def to assign card/group functions to cards you dont control
