Class CovertIntelligencePolicy

java.lang.Object

starvationevasion.common.PolicyCard

starvationevasion.common.policies.CovertIntelligencePolicy

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, JSON, Sendable

public class CovertIntelligencePolicy
extends PolicyCard

Title: "Covert Intelligence"

Game Text: "You get to covertly examine target player\'s hand and the top two cards of that player\'s deck. You may target yourself. During the voting phase, other players will see that you have played this card, but not know its target. Bonus: If you can correctly answer a hidden research question, you examine the top seven cards of the target player\'s deck."

Votes Required: Automatic

Model Effects: The fact that such cards as this exist, implies the draw pile must be set at the start of the game rather than cards being randomly picked at draw time.

Method Detail

getTitle

public java.lang.String getTitle()

Specified by:

getTitle in class PolicyCard

Returns:

The title text for this policy.

getGameText

public java.lang.String getGameText()

Specified by:

getGameText in class PolicyCard

Returns:

getValidTargetRegions

public EnumRegion[] getValidTargetRegions()

The default is null (no target region required).

Overrides:

getValidTargetRegions in class PolicyCard

Returns:

An array of regions valid as the target region of this policyCard. Returns null if this card does not require a region.

getRequiredVariables

public PolicyCard.EnumVariableUnit getRequiredVariables(PolicyCard.EnumVariable variable)

The default is null (the given variable is not required).

Overrides:

getRequiredVariables in class PolicyCard

Parameters:

variable - to be queried.

Returns:

The units of the required variable or null if the given variable is not required.

validate

public java.lang.String validate()

This method provides general validation checking of the policy card.

Between the time when a PolicyCard is instantiated and drafted, it must have various fields set. Which fields must be set and the ranges of those fields is dependant on each particular subclass of PolicyCard.

PolicyCard subclasses that need validation beyond what can be inferred from it's required fields should override this class, but open the override with super.validate(). Note: A policy that requires votes, may not have sufficient votes to be enacted, yet it may still be valid.

The Server uses this method to validate policy cards sent by the client.
Note: The client should never send the server invalid cards. If the simulator does find an error then either there is a bug in the client or the client has been hacked.

After the Server validates a drafted policy card, if the policy requires voting, the Server must notify the client that the card is part of the voting phase. The Server must call didVoteYes(EnumRegion region) or each region that votes yes for the drafted policy.

The Server must determine if a vote requiring policy is enacted and notify the clients.

Additionally, at the end of the voting phase, the Server must tell the simulator which voting policies did not get enacted (by calling the simulator's discard(EnumRegion playerRegion, PolicyCard card) method.

Overrides:

validate in class PolicyCard

Returns:

null if the policy is valid. Otherwise, returns an error message.
