I do not need to do this, each card is a list with a range of values, name, artist, set etc, wich also include the scryfall Oracle ID, so finding a card is easy.
I'm thinking of editing the JSON in a script outside of the game, remove junk data keys like non english text, if it has attractionlights etc to get the size of the json down. Right now it's 44Mb in it's raw state. Due to this affecting map size, I have set a rule of the JSON file being max 50Mb as of now (6+ sets a year will balloon this fast in the future kek) but getting rid of junk data will lower the filesize and then more cards can be added. I can also interact with scryfall outside of VRC and get the art URL's from the API. The art url's are not rate limited like the API, and put the art url in the card JSON data.
Then the card just initialize itself and download it's art texture when you draw it.
Should be easy to do with a Python script, but I have never coded Python nor interacted with API's much. So either I gotta learn this or look for help outside / ask chatGPT.
