Group.Select

Signature

Group.Select(Group g, int player, int min, int max, [Card|Group|nil ex]) -> Group|nil

Description

Lets player choose min to max cards from g, optionally excluding ex, and returns the selected Group. This is a plain Group choice; it does not register Chain targets or create IsRelateToEffect relations.

How To Use It

Use this when you already built the candidate Group and only need the player to choose from it.

local g=Duel.GetMatchingGroup(s.filter,tp,LOCATION_GRAVE,0,nil)
Duel.Hint(HINT_SELECTMSG,tp,HINTMSG_ATOHAND)
local sg=g:Select(tp,1,1,nil)
Duel.SendtoHand(sg,nil,REASON_EFFECT)

If you still need to filter while selecting, use Group.FilterSelect or Duel.SelectMatchingCard instead.
