Developers needed (La Poule)

Post by Azyra »

Hi,

I try to make an online version of a card game. I created most of the logic but I screwed up somewhere and need help to debug (doesn't start anymore) :( and to finalize it.

Cards used are (from the weakest to the strongest) 7-8-J-Q-K-A-9-10 (yes, not all the cards are used and the values are a bit strange but that's what it is :) )
  • Played in 2 teams of 2 players seated opposite to each other.
  • Cards are distributed this way : 3 cards to each players, 2 cards to each players and 3 cards to each players - done
  • Much like hearts, we have to win tricks. The player with the best hand starts the next trick - done
  • If a player has 10-9-A of the same color, it's called a Poule (or Politaine. It has many names, none of witch are in English ...)
    • If the player can wins 3 consecutive tricks with La Poule, it is successfully played. Otherwise, La Poule is lost. - done
  • Scoring (end of a hand) - To complete:
    • Each Poule successfully played gives 11 points
    • Each A's gives 1 points
    • 9-10-J-Q-K : you need 3 of these cards to make 1 point (basically it's the quotient of the number of these cards divided by 3)
    • 7 and 8 are worthless
    • The team to win the last trick of the hand gets 1 point
  • Players can't lookup their "cardswon" (the dead don't talk!)
  • Québec rules (There's many variants but I'm implementing the one we play in Québec):
    • All 4 8's dealt to one player gives victory to it's team
    • If a team scores 0 on the first hand, they lose the game
    • 32 points are needed to win
Other variants can be found:

https://www.pagat.com/tressette/quatresept.html (similar but not exactly the same)

Thank you!

Hi Azura,

Did you check your error in this page: https://en.doc.boardgamearena.com/Troubleshooting.

What is your project name on the studio, someone may check it.

Hi Azyra - I'll take a look at your project today to see why it's failing.
