Not planning to use CurseForge for sure, but Nexus is the biggest one yeah. I'm already using Thunderstore and the support for r2mm is already there even if not officially released on their side
cunning tangle
oh sick
tacit mountain
But I know some modders have issue with both website for some reasons I don't know so I will continue the classic releases on the github
It's just to make it easier to use and find for classic users
cunning tangle
i have never had issues with any platform tbh its generally my own fault when something doesnt work lol. but id say good call
i would love to see the nexus fill up, it seems like there is wayyy more mods on the github than there is on nexus rn
minor seal
you can get the colouring in the options
cunning tangle
oh really
wanton rapids
it's high contrast colours
cunning tangle
thats wicked. thank you
ok just looking through the options and found stats (i just got this game today) and i see theres stats for how many times youve used certain cards. there should be a stat for how many times the wheel of fortune has actually paid off lol

Six suits shaping up so well for you
wanton rapids
looks pretty good
lean dune
could also make it smol
wanton rapids
although it looks like the frames drop significantly when they're on
are you creating a new one every frame?
lean dune
although it looks like the frames drop significantly when they're on
that's just from recording
wanton rapids
30 frames with them off vs 7 when they're on
lean dune
it runs smoothly at 60 when I'm not recording lmao
cunning silo
could also make it smol
I just realized. Combining six suits and musical suit gives you all 7 deadly sins for the suit mult jokers!
lean dune
my laptop just doesn't handle it all that well
lean dune
I just realized. Combining six suits and musical suit gives you all 7 deadly sin...
hm right
wanton rapids
hm
tacit mountain
30 frames with them off vs 7 when they're on
I noticed the same
lean dune
trust me it doesn't cause perf issues
screen recording always slows down my laptop like crazy
how's this for size
wanton rapids
but the fact it slowed down more with them on
tacit mountain
I like the design
wanton rapids
it looks good, maybe a bit smaller
tacit mountain
The option is stored in the profile ?
wanton rapids
the same size as the text?
lean dune
The option is stored in the profile ?
G.SETTINGS is, right?
tacit mountain
G.SETTINGS is, right?
I think so yeah
lean dune
should be then
wanton rapids
could we get a "tags" system in the next release of steamodded?
could be useful for things like food jokers etc.
tacit mountain
We might want to put some of those stuff in a specific Steamodded file later to avoid putting mod stuffs into vanilla one
Like a Steamodded config file with a bunch of stuff inside it
And, in it, the possibility to disable mods
(At loading for now, not during run time)
lean dune
could we get a "tags" system in the next release of steamodded?
you'll be able to add custom badges, yeah
how about this
tacit mountain
Did you put a default color btw ?
tacit mountain
Well seems fine
lean dune
though I wasn't actually able to use that as it's not initialized at the time I need to load these
lean dune
Well seems fine
mostly trying to find a good size rn

The actual one looks good to me
You can always do a Poll if you want everyone opinion on it

how about this
this is 0.85
round oar
star ruby seems kinda op
lean dune
might be
round oar
maybe it could be 1 in 25 instead?
lean dune
i do think it needs to be nerfed
round oar
or maybe a random planet, tarot or spectral
lean dune
i think that's too random
round oar
ok true
umm
maybe if your hand contains 5 stars 1 in 10 chance to create a random spectral?

I wasted way too much time on this just to notice that its not 100% centered

Someone is also making a mod called that

who's making consumables plus then? :O

Hm... "Mika's Mod Collection" is 21 characters

I think I have heard someone does before…
lean dune
that's already gonna make these windows go wide
cunning silo
But I can’t place my finger on it…
sleek granite
if you're thinking of my mod it's MoreConsumables and i'm not steadfast on the name lol

another question is whether I should even add "Mod: " in front
tacit mountain
Hm... "Mika's Mod Collection" is 21 characters
You may had an option to change the displayed name

Hey guys, what is the most noob-friendly mod pack (or several)?
I've seen Skootie channel has a ton of new built-in "challenges" past the normal 20 that use new cards in fun ways. Which one is that?

which isn't even really the Planet API's fault it's just that the base game assumes every Planet does the same thing

Closer…
grand geode
and by too niche i mean far too niche

It’s a book related to a game

but I think I can get away with just skipping the original func call when a custom effect is present
alpine cosmos
It’s a book related to a game
hmmm
sleek granite
Need a bit of feedback, is this balanced?
feels like it could be a whole x0.5 or even x1 per card tbh
fallow bramble
x1 feels a bit too much idk
sleek granite
since it's so niche, some big splashy number would be good
alpine cosmos
rage of the dragons?
cunning silo
rage of the dragons?
Nope
sleek granite
'cuz 9 times out of 10 you're scaling off of one tarot card exclusively
fallow bramble
x0.5 instead of x0.25 then?
cunning silo
PATHFINDER
Yup!!!!!!
sleek granite
x0.5 could be the sweet spot
fallow bramble
Alright I'll do a test run with x0.5
lean dune
neither trance or the devil are the greatest consumables, I think 0.5 is fine
sleek granite
i dont even know what Trance does? is it the blue seal one?
lean dune
blue seal, yeah
white jacinth
Second question, do the 2 modloaders conflict with each other?
(Some mods say "made for Modloader A", can I use simultaneously multiple?)
or is one of them jsut universal now
lean dune
we're trying to make them more compatible, but for now there will be issues if you use both
Steamodded is more widely used than balamod though
wary moth
Need a bit of feedback, is this balanced?
its those two because theyre synergy with each other right? or is it a reference
fallow bramble
Mostly a ref, the synergy is accidental but it fits somehow
sleek granite
i have determined: No
so instead smiley :)
fallow bramble
For context, the guy's name is Trance, and he mostly represents himself as a devil
So seeing the card Trance and The Devil in this game is funny to us
sleek granite
i wonder if i could take a stab at why The Fool crashes when trying to show my card's name...
lean dune
I'll try and reproduce with one of mine
yeah I get the same crash
wow that stack trace is useless
let me print that out

sleek granite
hot damn
white jacinth
we're trying to make them more compatible, but for now there *will* be issues if...
3rd question is, how do I uninstall one of them to install the other? Or just, put mods into the correct folder and leave the other empty and it will balance itself?
lean dune
depends which way you want to switch and how you installed
white jacinth
I see instructions for 2 top posts, "steammodded with lovely" and "balamod by just running the program"

to be clear, we'll be able to set a like "display name" for the mod, yes?

then i think it should be fine... mods that have longer names could abbreviate themselves
i think that one's a good size, yeah.

now what length do i start shrinking at
currently it's 6 but I think it will still look fine with like 8

honestly i feel like it might even be better to just skip the automatic truncation and maybe just try to establish a convention of short display names idk
but im not a marine biologist so idk

it's the loc def, somehow

i wonder if the tooltip that inherits the textbox of the target card doesn't call the loc_def correctly

it's technically "source available" since you can extract the exe as a zip file and access the source code and it's written in an interpreted language. but you can't share the code so it isn't open source

I've been just kinda mulling over/theorycrafting about what my version of Stańczyk would be like and i'd probably implement some sort of comeback mechanic for him, just because he's well known for the painting of him distressed/despondent when Lithuania lost Smolensk to Moscow (he was an intelligent and well read jester and understood how bad this was)

alright so maybe some collaborative coding might help here so

data.key = id;
data.atlas = mod_id .. id;
SMODS.Sprite:new(mod_id .. id, SMODS.findModByID(mod_id).path, id .. ".png", 71, 95, "asset_atli"):register();
data.key = id
data.order = #G.P_CENTER_POOLS[pool] + 1
G.P_CENTERS[id] = data
table.insert(G.P_CENTER_POOLS[pool], data)
if pool == "Joker" then
table.insert(G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[data.rarity], data)
end
G.localization.descriptions[pool][id] = desc;
end``` this is my dusty add item functionive decided to format the legendaries like this
how would i go about defining the soul_pos as somewhere on this spritesheet rather than the default games?
because if i just slap data.soul_pos = {blah,blah} here, thats how i got the previous image
lean dune
alright so maybe some collaborative coding might help here so
well first things first you aren't using the joker api
lean dune
second, that's not how legendary sprites work
rare shell
im aware the backs are actually blank
lean dune
the regular sprite is just the background
rare shell
i just quickly cooked this one up since the one i have on hand is flat
lean dune
i could explain what else is wrong with your code, but the API handles that stuff. To cut it short, you're not setting the atlas on your center object
(also that completely bypasses the custom object tracking I just made)
anyway do your rewrite
rare shell
thats what i get from scraping from multijoker
i kid of course, i thank it for being one of the earliest mods out there

what was the first mod to ever exist?

good luck lmao
im going to have to rewrite how all of my jokers are implemented arent i
lean dune
🙋♂️ I, I got the joker API, now how do I use soul thingy
basically there's another argument after atlas
rare shell
because i still use snips like this
yes your code structurally is very different from what I remember
function SMODS.INIT.JankJonklersModJankJonklersMod()
add_item(MOD_ID, "Joker", "j_devilish", {
unlocked = true,
discovered = true,
rarity = 2,
cost = 5,
name = "Devilish Joker",
set = "Joker",
config = {
extra = { x_mult = 3 },
},
}, {
name = "Devilish Joker",
text = {
"{X:mult,C:white}X3{} Mult if played",
"hand contains only {C:attention}6s{}",
"or {C:attention}Gold Cards{}"
}
});
that part is the same I think
lean dune
if you're letting the loader assign the atlas, just leave atlas blank
then just put a position table with x and y values like regular as soul_pos
the regular sprite is the background usually, the soul_pos sprite is the foreground one
rare shell
basically there's another argument after atlas

orchid vault
i forgot i had a soul card increasing chance on for a hot minute when i saw this
lean dune
oh no
rare shell
so, just so i understand correctly,
im going to need to fold functions like this into the joker api? looking at the example always did confuse me (understanding it isnt complete makes sense)
local calculate_jokerref = Card.calculate_joker;
function Card:calculate_joker(context)
local ret_val = calculate_jokerref(self, context)
if self.ability.set == "Joker" and not self.debuff then
if context.individual then
if context.cardarea == G.play then
if self.ability.name == 'Expanded Art Joker' and context.other_card.ability.set == 'Enhanced' then
etc etc etc```
as of right now i just have a massive calc joker function and all my checks for names and what not are done thereyeah so basically, you need to put each joker's effect in its own function
but you don't need the name checks
rare shell
lean dune
the main benefit of this is that overlapping names aren't an issue
rare shell
i might be better off just making a fresh .lua at that point
oh that is actually such a motivating reason to do this
i was worried about that
lean dune
perfect
rare shell
so everything basically happens under
function SMODS.INIT.MODNAME()? joker initializations, descriptions, and what not, and the code that the jokers are meant to execute? excluding helper functions of course
lean dune
yep
rare shell
daunting, but i'll try wrapping my head around it
strong falcon
Why does the tarot card check for ability name here?
function SMODS.Tarots.c_example_tarot.use(card, area, copier)

it doesn't
rare shell
if i manage to re-implement one of my jokers i think i'll be gucci

strong falcon
Oh okay, thought it was redundant as well
rare shell
Is that the right way to specify soul_pos? or do I need to do additional shenanigans?

Do I need to destroy the tarot card when it gets used as well, or does that happen automatically?

How do I access the config of a tarot card? card.config does not seem to have anything. This is what I get when I do sendDebugMessage(inspect(card.config)):

gives me time to reimplement everything
languid hearth
what language is used to code jokers I wanna learn so badly how to make some
😭 and what api do you guys use ?
lean dune
How do I access the config of a tarot card? `card.config` does not seem to have ...
config.extra gets copied over into card.ability.extra
most stuff uses that
card is not a center object in this case
card.center.config would work though, I guess
strong falcon
Then I get ability is a nil value
rare shell
what's the context that happens at the start of a new hand? like after a hand is played
lean dune
context.after?
orchid vault
lean dune
card.ability.extra.odds works fine with this definition
strong falcon
It seems to crash specifically for tarots
When I try to use ability instead of config
This is within loc_def if that matters
lean dune
oh I should pay closer attention
tarots don't get ability, I don't think
nvm they should
strong falcon
If I use card.config.extra.odds instead of card.ability.extra.odds then it works for loc_def, but not when calling use()
rare shell
hmmm, can't seem to call a dissolve on context.after
i was trying to see if i could adjust my hacky implementation of fortuno to be a little less (but still) jank
currently right now i have a list of cards that are """dissolved""" improperly during a played hand, then they're properly dissolved by calling the code again during context.end_of_round
i was trying to see if i could potentially do the trash dump step on context.after but it doesnt seem to be the case
lean dune
hm... I don't think there's any base game implementation of destroying stuff after a played hand
rare shell
unfortunately there isnt, and the closest is hanged man
lean dune
here's your hotfix https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/releases/tag/0.9.5
rare shell
i just think the game really doesnt like it when you delete stuff from deck when you're not in a state you can normally pick your cards, i.e. scoring and jokers triggering
you are a god
strong falcon
Oh, in loc_def you need to use config.extra.odds, while in use you need to use ability.extra.odds, is this intended?
At least I solved my problem 😎
lean dune
might be that it's different objects
loc_def is passed a center object
which is equivalent to SMODS.Jokers.j_slug
lean dune
but use is passed a card object
strong falcon
I've always used ability on loc_def for my Jokers though
lean dune
yeah joker loc def and consumable loc def happen in different places
strong falcon
Ah okay, that'd explain it
rigid jewel
Nice it's fixed (also the desc is really beefy huh)
lean dune
there's Card:generate_UIBox_ability_table which is where Joker loc def sits
that function calls a global function generate_card_ui which is only passed card.config.center, this is where tarot loc def lives
lean dune
Nice it's fixed (also the desc is really beefy huh)
1$ dollar seems redundant
