Effect.SetCondition

Signature

Effect.SetCondition(Effect e, function con_func) -> void

Description

Sets e's condition callback. The callback decides whether the effect can apply or be activated in the current context.

How To Use It

Conditions answer whether the effect can apply or be activated in the current context.

Keep condition callbacks side-effect free. They may be called while the engine is only checking legality:

function s.spcon(e,tp,eg,ep,ev,re,r,rp)
    return e:GetHandler():IsSummonType(SUMMON_TYPE_SPECIAL)
end

e1:SetCondition(s.spcon)

For activated effects, costs and targets still get their own legality checks. The condition should describe the timing or state requirement that belongs to the effect itself.
