Card Channeler

A Slay the Spire mod that allows you to channel cards into your orb slots. Channeled cards are unaffected by focus and have no passive effect. When they are evoked, the card is played for free; the casting cost is paid instead when the card is channeled.

To channel a card, you can hold down the Ctrl key, while dragging it like how you'd normally play the card. After a single-target card is channeled, you can change its target by dragging it onto another monster. Retargetting can't be done for self-targetting and group-targetting cards.

Cards, monsters, and events are not included so this mod will just make things easier if no challenge modes are set. However, this mod is compatible with modded cards as long as they don't cost resources when marked as free to play and don't interfere with patched methods.

Channeled cards cannot give or take energy while being evoked. This is due to the otherwise unpredictability in the action/reset ordering.

Special thanks to:

* eternal0 and Gremious for the starting points
* Bug Kiooeht and the other basemod developers for all the patch apis
* Chronomancer for the small card rendering code
* All the people in the Slay The Spire modding discord for answering my questions
