Wow! This is incredible! Awesome! Thanks a lot! Seems that now I can retire my RCM tool since this is so much better!
Short question: How can collections be managed (even after creating an account this option is deactivated in the menu)?
Also settings is deactivated yet and in FireFox I could not find the download possibilty - is it hidden somewhere?
* Being able to link to a search as a way of easily sharing multiple cards at once
* General ease and quickness of how I designed it to work
You probably have a plan, but you could see how I made the Testament Filter in the viewer in my code - https://github.com/thejambi/RedemptionCCGViewer
What's the plan like for adding new cards to this? I can share the process I used for the LoC cards into the viewer and ready for Lackey.. But if you add new cards, will it help get them into Lackey?
Oh yeah - doing multiple searches at once is something I'd go back to the viewer for.
Along those lines, also sorting by card number when looking through a set.
Will the universal deck import also contain importing from Lackey exports?
Are you planning on developing a way for a player to upload all their cards to the "Collections" section? I currently keep track of all my cards (couple thousand) by logging them on the card list spreadsheet. It would be fantastic to be able to load all of these at once.
For collection management, the ability to “move” cards.
The way I see this working is by having a master collection where you can manually add cards to inventory levels. However, when you are building decks with the cards in your inventory, it automatically reduces your inventory level and increases that card count in your deck level. There should also be an easy function to wipe out all of the cards in a deck and return them to inventory.
Furthermore, it would be awesome to be able to layer your inventory with sub-levels so that you can separate your collection from cards you are willing to trade or sell. Perhaps the option for others to only be able to see decks and inventories that you choose to make public.
Include a feature where your inventories will automatically update when you trade someone. When they are originally marked for trade, it could be updated to “pending” and then after confirmation on each individual end of the trade, that player’s inventories will be updated to reduce the quantity of cards traded and increase the quad received at the click of a button since the program would be able to link the trade between the players.
For updating inventories, having an auto-save feature where it keeps the data as you are inputting would be valuable too.
Thanks for working on this!
I just want to say that this is an incredible resource, and I'm definitely going to be using it in the future. Well done on everything so far - it looks very sleek and I look forward to seeing how it develops.
With that out of the way (and the reassurance that ambitious ideas are welcome), here's what would make this my first and last stop for card info:
On the card search page, as it stands hovering a card shows the name, set, and a copy image link. My idea is for a detail view - my first thought is opening a box on double click, but it could be its own page as well, or whatever works. This view would have important info about the card, akin to what was on the old wiki (https://redemption.fandom.com/wiki/Mayhem_(TP)). It would help particularly with old cards that have difficult-to-read abilities over the text, and possibly even be a resource to help with accessibility to the game for colorblind folks. Much of the basic stuff would be relatively simple, I imagine, as most of it would be simply filled by text that exists anyway for the db search. The tricky part would be Play-As and erratas. Really going the extra mile it could even include a rulings sections, where frequently asked questions can have a definitive place attached to the card so that people don't have to go diving on the boards/discord.
Obviously this is a bit of a big ask (basically integrating the ORCID, and a ton of work manually entering stuff with the last suggestion) but having everything in one place would be sweet.
Also, you have an extra S in "Revelation of John"
Another thought. When looking through the cards, I see there is an "add to deck" option. I tested this option out by making 3 "decks", and when I went to add a card, I wasn't given the option of telling it in which deck to put the card. I'm assuming this is a work in progress?
Is there a reserve in decks[size=78%]?[/size]
I really like this. One thing I am thinking would be a nice addition to the card search/filter is the ability to use inclusive and/or exclusive filters. It would really help when you're wanting to see cards that are more than 1 brigade or are dual alignment.
Not sure if this would be too big of an undertaking but you could also add a function that allows you to look at potential targets for a card's special ability. For example: Hero says something like, "May use any good enhancement related to music regardless of brigade." the function would then show you all of the enhancements that are related to music. Kind of a combo finder.
Nathan,
Thank you for this work. It's great. The project is far enough along that I felt it was time to add an official link to the resources page on the Cactus website. It replaces the link for the Redemption Card Visualizer.
Blessings,
Rob Anderson
Just being able to search separately for "involves music" cards, or "male", etc for all kinds of identifiers from ORCID or whichever has that, that would be the dream :)Not sure if this would be too big of an undertaking but you could also add a function that allows you to look at potential targets for a card's special ability. For example: Hero says something like, "May use any good enhancement related to music regardless of brigade." the function would then show you all of the enhancements that are related to music. Kind of a combo finder.
Interesting idea, that gets into a bit more complex word and phrase recognition. That would be fairly straightforward for newer cards, and would definitely be harder for older cards. I could see something like that working but it would probably be further down on the list.

Just one finding: Seth, Son of Adam has wrong image...
And Solomon's Dream cannot be searched for with this string. It is only listed until the ' is entered.
Noticed the other day that the images for Out of Egypt and Outpouring are swapped.
Maybe I missed it but can a filter also be set up using wildcards resp. place holders?
At the moment that really isn't possible, in the future I do plan do upgrade the search filter extensively to allow for much better filtering:thumbup:
Is there any way to filter for Star cards?
Could there also a filter by card number be added?
Any chance you might open up a public CRUD/REST API to this?

@NathanW (RedemptionDB.web.app) Is RedemptionDB still in active development? I believe the advent of Redemption on Untap.in may be a reliable replacement to Lackey if decks built on RedemptionDB can be imported into Untap.in. As is the case with TTS, Untap.in does not have the search or deck building features of Lackey.

I am working on a successor to RedemptionDB.web.app at the moment. As a result of my various endeavors as an aspiring software engineer I've been learning a whole ton while working on various projects and believe I can make a tool that combines a hub for accessing tools, resources, etc, an API for people to access up to date card information for their own projects, and a database for people to share decks and combos and such similar things. (some examples of tools and utilities would be a decklist print-off, and exporting to various platforms like Untap.in, lackey, etc.)
Updating TTS is more time intensive as I made that plugin in not the most sustainable way, but I would love to revisit that at some point as well.
so yes, something is definitely still in active development, but I believe I've finally landed on a solution that works well for long term maintainability on my part :smile: (and I am familiar with many more proper solutions to industry standard problems instead of the semi-janky stuff I did before)
Another proposal/request: Would be great if cards could be filtered for the respectivly Rotation format. Do you think such kind of thing would be possible?
