It took a pretty specific example to get me to understand Plus.
The idea was that there was a card above that has a 6 as its bottom number, and a card on the right has a 7 as its left number. So, putting a card that has a 4 up top AND a 3 as its right number would plus them both, because both equal 10 (6+4 and 7+3). And, then it can combo-chain if such a thing happens with the newly flipped card and another card (or cards) adjacent to it.
Realizing that it's just making two sides add up to the same number cleared up so much confusion for me, including why the hell it was called Plus.
Yeah, it's not that I don't get it, it's just that it won't do it sometimes. Say the two sides are 3+4, and then the next sides that touch are 3+4 exactly, I still can't get it to plus. I'm not the only one who's been boggled by it, I'm not sure if it's a problem with the coding, or if it's just a plain bug. The combo you get if the cards next to the cards flipped are weaker than the ones flipped.
Are you trying to make the 3s and the 4s are paired off (3-against-3 and 4-against-4, which wouldn't work, since 6 =/= 8), or are you making it so that the 3s are against the 4s and vice versa (leading to two 3-against-4s, which makes two 7s total, which SHOULD work)?
Basically, are you doing this:
8
4
4
- Â 3 Â 3 6
When you need to do this:
7
4
3
- Â 4 Â 3 7
Nope, exactly as I said, one side will have 3, the side touching will have 4 and say, the bottom number of the second card has a 3, and the top of the next number has 4. Sometimes the numbers are different, but have the same sum, and it doesn't work. I've cheesed him 7 times with the plus rule, but it doesn't always seem to want to work.
