Add a card pull? #5

Open Shijuro1 opened 10 months ago

Shijuro1 commented 10 months ago

I've found the app very useful for playing small solitaire games on the move.

A number of newer RPGs use a card-pull mechanism to generate random numbers. Sometimes the suite matters, sometimes the rank, often both.

Would it be possible to add a random card pull (perhaps just display the upper left corner of the card, just showing a number/letter and suite)?

Update: I had no idea this app existed on the Flipper, but it's most often what I use the Flipper for now that I found it.

Hello @Shijuro1 ! Thank you for the feedback and suggestion for project improvement!

Yes, adding that is possible, and I'll be happy to do it. But please help me with some additional questions:

  1. Number of cards - 52 (without jokers)?
  2. Do we always choose a random card from the full deck of 52 cards, or should I remove the card we've already received from the list?

Ideally, jokers would be an option (some use them, some don't). Perhaps the way the different dice are done, show one choice as a box with 52 on it, and another as a box with 54 on it. The game I'm playing at this very moment had me remove the jokers until some event happened - it just happened, so now I need to draw from 54 cards (jokers included). And jokers need to distinguish between black and red (maybe one showing spade and club, and the other showing heart and diamond on the monochrome display). Draw with replacement works, that also means we don't have to worry about tracking cards or adding a reshuffle control.
