I have to say this is really impressive!
Even tough there allready is a TripleTriad script made by SephirothSpawn I have to say I like your version a lot more vor various reasons. One of them beeing that it doesn't need the SDK.
I have been testing it for a while now and I couldn't find any critical bugs so far. The only thing I noticed that is worth mentioning is the fact that you can just leave the match when you press S duiring it as I did by accident. That yould be used to cheat your way ot of loosing; you see that you can't win anymore, just discard the match and try again.

Thanks for the comment Yeah i've heard allot about Sephiroths TT script although i haven't been able to find it. I was hoping to maybe implement some of his features and make my script the best it could be.

I implemented the S thing on purpose. It's only available in debug mode so you can quit the match at any time whilst debugging. I mentioned it somewhere in the long instruction section but it's easy to miss I know If it is really annoying or you don't want that feature you can easily just delete it by searching for the following lines (ctrl+f) and deleting them:

CODE

    #DEBUG exit
    if Input.trigger?(TT::INPUT) && $DEBUG
      $scene = Scene_Map.new #debug exit
      return
    end

Minor bug from demo: when I challenge someone but then decide not to by pressing the cancel key, the game freezes until I talk to the NPC. Also, they would automatically talk after the match.

Huh...And here I was, taking the time to read all the instructions and i still miss that XD
Bud good to know.
Also, I have added a link to a Demo of SephirothSpawn's version =)

Bugs fixed, thanks Tsukihime.

Thanks for the link Yamina, I see what Sephiroth was trying to do with his script but it just seems like too much. He didn't even have the plus rule!(It's my favourite rule ) but i was thinking of implementing the cross board rule that he's got into my script before i saw his one, but then people would probably think i was trying to copy him, and i prefer all the coding/idea's to be mine.

Plus i moved the Debug thing to the top of the script so people can't miss it now. Thanks for all your feedback.

When I lose and they take my card, it seems like the card is not removed from my inventory (I chose the last 5, and then later checked to see if anything changed but it still says I still owned 1 of each)

Though, I'm not too big a fan of the card game and am more interested in your code lol

Your quite the bug finder aren't you It was just a small problem of the cards not turning the right colour. Bug fixed.

Thanks Yeah Triple Triad was relatively easy to program, just very large and time consuming. My goal in creating it was to create a system which is easy to implement and also relatively easy to modify, so I've commented allot of the script so you can easily find what you want to change up.
