Cycles to specify what kind of cycle they are #247

Open distributive opened 3 months ago

distributive commented 3 months ago

Some cycles are cycles (e.g. Borealis) whereas some cycles are just singular sets (e.g. Gateway, System Update). In the same way sets have a cardSetType it would be useful to add a cardCycleType.

Off the top of my head, I think cycles would just need a Cycle and Set type, but you could maybe extend it to include core, expansion, etc. to match the card set types.

They've always been treated as roughly the same. What types of values do you see this having and what will we do with it?

i'm not convinced a cycle that is a single set needs a different type, but things like draft, salvaged memories, or the magnum opus packs could do with some differentiator.

@distributive - what else do you want to use this for?
