Neo Forge MTG 1.0.21（PC、Mac、Linux 和 Android）发布：Archenemy 网络对战、长局内存优化与 Android 60 卡多人

Neo Forge 1.0.21 is out for Windows, Mac, Linux and Android. As always, almost everything in it comes from what you asked for on Discord and here on itch.io: Archenemy in network games, long games that no longer run out of memory, multiplayer for 60-card formats on Android, and a good batch of fixes.

The host turns it on in the room: one Archenemy against everyone (you mark who on their seat) or Archenemy Rumble, where everyone is one. Anyone without schemes in their deck gets a random set of 20, as in single player. PC and Android can play it together.
Archenemy is now only offered in four-player games (you and three opponents). It's one player against a team, so it no longer shows up in duels or three-player games.

Long games use much less memory

On Android a four-player game could stop around turn 45 with "OutOfMemoryError". Forge's engine keeps a copy of the whole board every time something is used and never lets go of it, and those copies piled up faster and faster. Neo Forge now releases them once per turn: about 70% fewer from turn 30 on in my tests. Nothing changes in how the game plays.

Decks and formats

Other formats (Premodern, Pauper, Pioneer...): the deck list, and your opponents, now only have decks that are legal in that format. Premodern used to show every Standard deck.
Filter the deck list by format and by set, to pick decks from the same era.
Deck builder: "Groups", like Forge's. Split the catalog by type, color, cost or rarity, each group with its header and count. Sorting by type now goes by cost inside each type.
Importing a deck from a link (Moxfield, Archidekt...) on PC now keeps its name.

In game

New setting: ask before activating a permanent's ability. Tapping a creature with a single ability shows what it will do, with Cancel or Activate, so a misclick never fires it. Mana abilities don't ask. Off by default.
Planechase: the AI now rolls the planar die (it never did), and you can see the roll, with the same dice as other rolls.

Sealed and draft

Rename and delete any event, and a Jumpstart sealed is named after its two themes ("Goblins + Dinosaurs").

Ascent

The Teacher now charges what the button says: −5 life and +3 max life (15/23 becomes 10/26). Raising max life was also healing you 3, so it only cost 2.
The path on the map is drawn correctly: the road you've taken and the ones you can take from where you are show in blue.
With "Remember these arts" on, a favourite art of a different rarity is no longer used (Secret Lair prints are rare in Forge), so no more rares sneaking into the Standard starting deck.

Android

60-card formats can be played multiplayer too, up to 3 opponents like on PC, and the number of opponents is remembered per format.
When a game or the Adventure stops because of an error, the message stays on screen until you close it, with a Copy button to paste it on Discord and what you can do next. The last five errors are in Settings → Data.
You can delete a sealed or draft event you haven't finished (the ⋮ menu on each one).
The enlarged card shows its rules text in the right order, translated when a translation exists.

Forge updated

Alchemy: Reality Fracture and several card fixes are in, along with the latest engine changes.

Fixes

Leaving a game with three or more players to the menu (Archenemy, Planechase) could leave the screen stuck on "Closing the game...". Fixed.
Quest: "sell cards not in my decks" no longer sells cards a deck uses when that deck has a different printing than your copy.
