Deal Cards

Hello everyone. I want to work on a card game, Where the 52 cards are dealt with no repeaters. just curious if there is a way to have 3 computers and a player get random cards, then the computers all play their cards, and the player gets to pick which card he/she wants to play. Seems like it would be really complicated with gamesalad, but then again im not all that great with the program. Thanks for any help I know this would be a hard game to make.

Thanks,
Kip

    So it sounds like you're asking for a complete mechanic, is that right? Is there something specific we can help you with, or are you just wondering if a card game is possible in GameSalad? If it's the latter, card games are very much possible in GameSalad, but it's the AI that's going to take a lot of work to get working.

    @Armelline has done some great work with card sorting. You can find a demo at http://forums.gamesalad.com/discussion/70000/armellines-free-stuff-for-everyone-check-first-post-for-the-latest-update/p1.

    I built a card dealing template for a client but unfortunately can't share it publicly. It's not terribly difficult to deal out random cards. The harder part is determining which hand a player has and then comparing it to other hands.

    PM me this afternoon and I'll happily talk through some of your questions. I'm about to head out now though and will probably forget myself!
