What should his joker ability be
ello chat, trying to make art of a guy throwing chips whilst playing poker. is showing your cards whilst (i assume) raising the pot a genuine thing? or is this something silly stock images do
thats just for the stock image
alright epic
i would assume no reasonable player would show their cards while raising
since then everyone else would just fold
yeah that's what i was thinking, but i was worried there's like a regional variant or something
considering they have four cards in hand maybe
wait i didn't even consider that lmao
photographers didn't get invited to poker night 😭
id assume they show the cards so you can see whats going on from the camera angle
most players probably also wouldn just throw a stack of miscellaneous chips into the pot too
yeah that's a good point
?
4 1s, slightly rotated
is it from anything in particular?
it sorta resemble a symbol that i dont agree with 
nah it's a rhombus lol
you should probably change it haha, not the first time someone thought it was a swastika analogue
arknights new chapter just dropped and it happened in a gulag and involve the november revolution
...okay?
er, alright
it's still concerningly similar
so you made the pfp yourself? it is similar to some arknight imagery
you should REALLY change it man
yeah i made it myself
what do the four ones represent
1.1.1.1
cloudflare fan
Haha, thanks for changing it. You hadn't done anything to indicate it was actually supposed to be a swastika, but I have DMed someone in the past to make sure I wasn't seeing dog whistles where there weren't any, haha
nah i was out of inspiration and decided to just ball with it
the sw*tiska thing didnt even cross my mind
I assumed it hadn't, haha. It's a very easy shape to accidentally hint at
i use a figma knock off to make it
that's how I feel every time I make a windmill in the create mod (or vintage story)
I've got a construction company around me here that has a logo that always makes me squint in suspicion when I see it, and we had some sidewalk tiling be redone in around me as well because it accidentally put pseudo-swastikas on the street
so i decided to use catppuccin now
When I run a maze generation algorithm: =_=
i cant take my mod seriously
the catppuccin dark theme is one of my favorites
i once saw a chess edit and they accidentally showed it for like half a second whenever the knight showed up

that's a thing ?????
okay well this works and i cba changing it
Back on that UI grind 😫
“Hey! You wanna help us out by adding some content to the Balatro Wiki page on DEPRESSION?!”
Not really, no
what's this for?
I'm adding the ability to press a hotkey while hovering over a joker in Kino, and seeing the jokers that share cast with it, as well as its movie metadata
Oh that's such a good qol feature for this mod
I've been really focused on just making the QoL better for stuff, honestly, haha. Partially a great side effect from doing Blockbuster is being able to rewrite those features, knowing what they'd need to be more user friendly, as well.
Also want to make it so you can do it on a booster pack, and have it show you all potential content it could spawn
finally kino is playable for normal people
looking into packs is probably nice for setups with many mods
on that joker grind
Is it possible to mod for a pirated version of balatro ?
no clue, we don't discuss pirated versions of Balatro on the official balatro server
Aw man
Dude it’s like $15 and nearly always on sale or in a bundle
I'm considering making the movie nerd shit a more explicit toggle mode, or have decks that specifically care about it mark themselves as such. Will see how that shakes out, because the actor stuff is generally more of a hidden mechanic. Might make the producer tarot only spawn if that setting is toggled on, though. Will have to see
Yeah but I’m broke as hell
regardless, the official balatro discord's not the place to discuss this, haha
hi ice
hey hey
bust any cool blocks lately
Not really, haha. Set up the full standard for Kino itself, and going to try and properly set ones up for Morefluff and Grab Bag too. But working QoL stuff and dumb enhancements for Kino atm
hell yeah
did you see the Rotisserie card I added as MF crossmod? haha
Still need to clean up my sprites to fix the alpha bleed, which I realize now I've been postponing for 7 months, but the chicken segments unpink and become brown as it heats up, and rotates, of course
Can someone help me with finding my way around the brainstorm mod?
Im just trying to use it to get a relatively early soul to give me Tribulet for C++
Not a lot of people around that know a lot about brainstorm, so I'd also ask your question in the #1242974974701080617 thread, in case it gets buried here!
the lego set got too frustrating to keep building so im back to work on hodgepodge 👍

the only joker i have left to program makes use of blockbuster value manip so i guess its time to go over every joker and clean em up
ready em for blockbuster, make sure the price is right, remove prints, and add blueprint compat
actually first i should probably rework placeholder
autumn
missingnumber please accompany me
i want to make things
I'm scared
@dreamy abyss
mario is coming
whos mario
No. Within. Like part of SMODS.
? lushmods is not part of smods
you can kind of see the vision but also What
kid named G.GAME.banned_keys
I don't get why people resort to those variable names. I'd forget what they were storing every time I closed my IDE
also theres a very simple and convenient way to check the suit that a blind debuffs which also would have crossmod support
because currently youd still get debuffing blinds with a modded suit selected
also why do aaa bbb and ccc have names at all, surely they should just be _
they should
and in the loc_vars they literally are
but for some reason they arent _ in any of the applys
so uuuh i got this bug in modded balatro (this dont happen in vanilla) i only got three mods and everytime i restart a run it automatically chooses white stake for me, even tho im tryna do purple stake. In vanilla, when you play a selected stake it automatically in the restart run menu chooses that specific stake, idk why this is happenin. its annoying when i accidentally go into a white stake run without noticing, how do i fix ts
Which mods are you running?
steamodded, joker display and blueprint
im pretty sure this is a steamodded issue, on latest release it doesnt save the last selected stake
i recall galdur indirectly fixing it though
though idk if thats just the "last run" button or if it actually saves
alright
who up brainstorming jokers
i prefer blueprint sorry
Brain Print of Blue Storms.
lmao thats awesome
Alright, was afk. Are you (Triangle) saying I don't have the right SMODS if it includes something called LushMods? Because the other version is for mod developers or something.
I'll look for the right one, I guess.
lushmods has never been a thing in smods
what are you talking about
there might be a mod called lushmods but its not part of smods
you have a mod installed called lushmod
It's not on the list in the mods folder.
try searching in the mods folder for it then
( as in, using the file explorer search)
Found it. Thanks.
heres the red arrow anyways
i cant see it
hello

Probably can make things take up a bit more space, but this is looking pretty decent
Okay, new issue. Got new hardware, but I don't know what I had and now I'm short about a thousand jokers.
Skill issue.
Easiest way to get a thousnad jokers quick is to install Pokermon and JoyousSpring
balatrue
if you want 900 jokers quick because a thousand is too many, install Kino and JoyousSpring
if you want one million jokers quick install the mod i will release for april fools 2026
are they all jimbo (it would be really funny)
balatro plus 
maybe
what if i want one billion jokers
Center your wins, while you're at it.
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Only need to figure out if I want to just show all jokers that share cast at once, or if I'm going to change Page 1/1 into 'Kevin James' and then show all jokers that match that specific actor 🤔
i can make an update
15-150
balatrue
anything more is Too Many Jokers
i imagine its probably like average of 30 for finished mods
because theres a ton of smaller mods
if your mod has less than 76 billion jokers you are slacking
really it depends on how long it's been in development for and how large the team is
also that is true
1 man teams either make mods with 10 jokers or 10 billion, ig
-# I think I currently have like 100 but im def not done
-# also good grief the consumable count too
I know my mod has 300+ jokers, but I'm starting to convince myself that like 45 is a sweet spot for a mod, unless it's meant to be truly stand alone

rip jimbo winquotes… 😔
Though most Balatro mods are kitchen sink mods, so they'll collect whatever ideas flow from the faucet
im candy
Hi.
hi

Is my typing "aggressive"?
hm
i can hear your keyboard being smashed from here
draw more cards
i know i dont need to have any but
at this point kinda feel wrong to not have at least some
like unique consumable TYPES or just unique tarot/spectral/etc
have a good one dont let the bed bug bite
Tbf, I feel a lot of mods have consumables in very similar design spaces. Lots of the older mods, as well, have just their own consumable that's basically aesthetically different tarots/spectrals
Yes, feed the 7 with more unique consumable types.
I have Confections in Kino, but honestly that design space matches a bunch of other mods' custom consumables
i disagree, i don't really like when mods add tarots (or planets without hand types to match)
consumable playing cards
planeswalker that turns into a playing card....
playing cards that you can spawn in immediately gets destroyed once used
so like if you really need that fifth king of diamonds
I think it's better to only add a consumable because you have an idea for it, honestly
you can spawn a temporary one in for one hand
and then it's immediately gone
is that an idea
this is actually a pretty cool idea
maybe have it give more than one copy in some cases too or it could have seals n all
I haven’t seen anything like this before at least
i was thinking more like, playing card that you can buy but keep in the consumabble area
oh I see
and you can select it when making a hand, but then once scored it's removed
It's an idea but not one that works with 2 consumable slots, I'd say. The big issue with emergency consumables (anything you'd use to meet a condition for one time only), is that your investing mostly in the ante raising higher, and now no longer having the emergency button you used to win
das true
how many chinese zodiac consumable sets are there i feel like theres a lot
also that would just be that one spectral card but the copies are temporary
hm
not so unique after all
Confections were made with the idea of them just mostly being simple score givers, and I truly don't think I could buff them to a spot where they'd matter in that form. The popcorn confection now upgrades your next played hand by +4 mult. It used to just give +4 mult when I first made it, and that was insultingly weak. But even at +40 mult I couldn't justify buying it.
challenge where playing cards appear 3x more often in shop and every scored card is immediately destroyed
fuck
The way I see it, I wouldn't buy a consumable that says 'Win this blind immediately', because if I couldn't win with my build, I should invest in my build. I'd basically only buy it if it was a last resort. So any item that's a downgrade of 'Win the blind immediately' tends to have issues justifying itself
i did have an idea for a Card Sleeve joker a while back
which allows you to "store" one card in it
Fortune Card
1/3 chance to generate a tarot card (Must have Room)
1/8 chance to generate a spectral card upon scoring (Must have Room)
and pull it back out whenever you want, but you must put a different card in its place

i think i could implement it, but i didnt persue it because i would've wanted the sprite to show what card you have inside it and that's impossible
even getting the description to say what card you have in there might be hard
cuz it has to keep edition enhances and seals and potentially other modded modifier too
I do think it’s important to have a “theme” of some sort when making a unique consumable type
either in terms of general effect, visuals, or both
for example:
- dominoes on my end give extra effect to lower ranked cards when held in your slots but also have an effect when used; that gives you a bit of a dilemma
- .fla files are more so jsut based off of items in flash media, and can normally only be accessed in booster packs of their own like Spectrals unless you get a voucher (below)
- battle cats are more a one time use consumable that just gets you closer to chips, but it’s harder and harder to rely on them unless you get some of the rarer ones that have extra effects (or get a build of jokers that plays with them)
Weaker or niche consumables are better when they can be generated, though. A consumable that is used to give score isn't worth buying in many cases. A joker that creates that consumable at round start, though, definitely might be
thats actually very op but i really like the idea, make it so that every round, for every 2 cards destroyed, a duplicate of the last destroyed card (rightmost if it was destroying multiple) is created at the end of a round
i could cop out and just make it a solid sprite
which is probably the path i might take
but then there's still the problem of taking a card out of your deck and somehow storing its exact data
and then somehow generate it back into the hand
...I already had nerfed it before to just duplicate a destroyed card without extra copies before, but... eh, that last part would require me bringing over the checks much like Death does.
Fishing minigame that gives you fish consumables that give +chips, or sell for some cash. They also decrease in value as they rot. Shop now had the chance to spawn different types of Fisherman, who can't be bought, but will increase the sell value of fish while they're in the shop 🤔
...actually, can you do that?
-# I still haven't forgotten about the "Bag of Chips" crossmod idea, Ice. 
I do kinda like the idea of jokers that don't do anything for you, but change the game a bit while they exist in the shop
and that’s where array programming starts to screw you over instead of regular programming
like, store the data of an a playing card in a var
or at least save each attributes
ive been sitting on a sorta phanta zodiac/bakery items esque item tbh
im justlazy and havent planned it much
Yes but if you're not careful with how you do it, this will cause hard crashes if people play with Cryptid 😭
yeah and that's the problem
Why not make it a Partner?
I hate to say that I've forgotten what the pitch was, hahaha
because its an consumable type
i can probably make it deal with vanilla stuff
ah
also card objects just dont save so like
you can just save a card to a G.GAME var
its pretty easy
no, you cant
what
actively listing every modifier type in the code
Oh wait, it'd be long term storage, that's true
objects (anything that the game has a sprite for) are not serializable, meaning they cant be saved
you are able to check if X mod is installed if that’s what you mean
The cryptid thing is only an issue for short term storage, like between contexts. Because long term storage, the issue with not being able to be saved definitely is a thing
you could add a flag to a card's ability.extra to a card and loop through G.deck.cards to find that card?
this is storing a card elsewhere iirc
not just. saving a reference to a card
because that would be easy
yeah, the intended function of the joker is that
ok uuh
Playing cards have attributes that you could just serialize yourself, though, for sure. I would instead move the card to an off screen card area and just give the source and the moved card mutual reference
make a new cardarea maybe
This is what I do for Abduction
yea
you REMOVE one card from you deck and put it in the joker
and then find the card again from sort order
and then when you need it back, you put a different card in there to get the rpevious card back out
Which removes playing cards from the deck, stores it in the joker, and returns it when the abduction ends
the only thing is idk how youd make the animation look righr
so the joker needs to save what card it's currently holding
but yea custom card area
and store the sort order
doesnt SMODS.draw_cards always put the card at the end of the card area?
it does but
I’d be careful about moving cards around offscreen. There’s some pretty interedting screen jank that can occur with larger monitors and changing window size
you can have multiple of the joker
This will be an API in like 2 months, if you're patient 😋 but until then, you can check the Abduction code from Kino. The biggest issue with moving things to card areas, and pretending it's stored in a joker is dealing with saving and loading
ah true..
also its emplace which places cards to the end of the area
though not even since it has an option to make it go on the left
unrelated, i have a couple of jokers that triggers when discarding 1 card
so discards kinda become a psuedo mana thingy
you can either use it to trigger a joker, or discard more cards normally
For Kino, I have cards like that create a storage ID when they're created, so that they have permanent unique reference (the game's normal IDs change between loads), and use that ID as a reference. That prevents issues caused by having two copies of a joker
i think it's a servicable way to do that without actually having to implement a new resource
Oh, I like that as a mechanic
yippee!!!
so far i'v eonely got meh effects tho
i've got Disapproval which decrease the rank of the discarded card by 2, with wrapping
that’s not meh
oh I like that even better now
I want to make a “Dry Joker” that disables The Water (start with no discards) boss and has an interaction with Splash. Because f The Water boss
Deadpan Comic
because they have really dry jokes
so it can also be related to Hack
I'm remembering now there was a mod that made the menu say "Family Guy funny moments". Which one is that?
i dont know but im willing to be it's the yahimice mod
i must be naturally funny
*yahiamice
bello chat
cello
mello
yello
ID api when
Interesting concept
I hadn’t considered that as a theme
I’ve thought of some Jokers that could interact with discarding a single card but I never thought of how they could work together
chat would you hate me if i added a boss blind where you had to just play fnf
what if all boss fnf but usual boss effect still applies
The Wheel - 1 in 7 notes is Hidden
awful
It'd probably be worthwhile to just include into SMODS, but I reckon I should at least include it in Blockbuster value Manipulation while it isn't
Can anyone explain to me how to do shaders for Balatro? There's like no documentation on that, sadly
Club/Goad/Window/Head - All Up/Right/Down/Left arrows have tighter timing
The Needle - The battle contains only one note but if you miss you insta lose
learn GLSL
The Mouth - The chart will contains only one type of arrow
The one it claims is problematic.
one button gamplay
there is no shader documentation because its not a balatro thing
its just GLSL shaders
The Psychic - Battle is 5K
youll have to look for GLSL docs i guess
actually no Wall should be 5K chart
violet vessel: vs shaggy
and then Violet Vessle is 8K chart
I have but I don't get how to use that because the shader examples I looked at look different than what I learned
Verdant Leaf - All notes are invisible until you remove one keycap
you lose a hand irl
kris moment
Amber Corn - Arrows directions are visually randomised, and only correlates to which lane it is in
Love2D has its own shader language that's based on GLSL, iirc, but there are changes
Ivé had this blogpost bookmarked for months now https://blogs.love2d.org/content/beginners-guide-shaders
Cerulean Bell - One of the lane will always be a super long hold note
Guess I'll read through this and see what I can do. Thank you :3
Not happy with it yet but it's functional and that's what I need it to be
Also means I know how to apply this on the page for the spells, which'll be helpful
mad work
Ideally I'd make the UI fancier by letting you click on an actor's name to get info about them, but I don't know how I'd make that user experience work well with Balatro's UI system, haha
wtf this is SICK
kino is so awesome i could never put this much work into my stuff
ui is scary
this is for every joker too id assume?
not a movie guy but i should really play kino lol
Yeah. Still need to figure out which hotkeys are available without clashing with Handy or debugplus, but you just hover over a joker and press it and it'll pop up. Main use for it is for the specific deck that can only create jokers that share actors with jokers you already have, and checking if a movie was profitable for the producer tarot
If you don't pick one of the decks that explicitely asks you to be a movie nerd, you don't need to know anything about 'm, haha
awesome
unrelated and i absolutely do not want to take away from how sick that is but
why does gros michel take so long to die while i have smods on?
it goes "Extinct!" and only dies after a few seconds
Do you only have smods on?
Iirc, the extinct pops up during the end of the round check, and the destroy effect happens in a later calc for end of round destroy effects. So gold cards paying out happens after the extinct message, but before it disappears, for example
oh okay
inside you there are two wolves
True.
i should probably check if the fnf blind song is gonna sound any good at x0.7 speed
omg kusane haihai ^^
Ah.
oh ya btw i made a change to the Copper Grate tooltips making them shorter, and this can be reverted in config
and Forsaken Scroll's odds are 0 in 25 > 0 in 15
as i hardly ever used it, even with a Tea Bag
LIFE IS PAIN
if only there werent two wolves inside me
and also Waxed cards are a smiiiiidge too good, so i'm tempted to reduce the number you can make with Beekeeper from 3 to 2, but i'm very not sure
I think I'm going to set up a run specific config that you can alter during deck selection for Kino. I think a good few of these config options don't make sense being in a mod's config, rather than being toggleable before a run starts
i sadly may have to scrap the funny fnf boss blind because the game's slowing down of the music makes everyhing Bad
unless i could find a way to like. transition the music back up to and down from full speed smoothly. which sounds like hell
finally, I understand option pages properly
ok time to go through all my jokers and get them up to code
i imagine i should install blockbuster beforehand to make sure they work
omg ghostsalt!! hihi :333
balatro
balatro
balatro
haiiiii :3
hii
:3 :3 :3
wow trustwortgy
<@&1133519078540185692>
ladies and gentlemen. we got 'em
Lot easier to make your jokers standardized if you figure out your standard before hand, I reckon, so it definitely helps

that was awful
the crypto's fine though i jsut want kai removed
are jokers always benefit
i cant think of a joker that has any negative effect
like a very strong joker but with heavy downside
other than consuming one slot i gues
The Shark!
Changes enhancements of played enhanced cards
sohrk
oh ya kusane the symbol here is based off The Trickster from TAC :3
peam mentioned
i wanted to make TAC cards a consumable type but i figured they wouldn't fit into Phanta
maybe as a separate mod
based tac enjoyer
^^
tac?
board game
board game
based game
oh
it's 2v2 competitive ludo/sorry/parcheesi/whatever but with strategic cardplay instead of dice rolls
stuntman, troubadour, like those?
and one of my friends, Timwi, made loads of new cards for it ^^
and i added a few
like The Oracle and The Gnome and The Ghost
through tts, ya :3
oh
i think tablesim runs ok on my laptop
fortnite is a map game
it's played on a map
:3
it's a table game technically
what do you thinkt he table's made of
also balatro isn't poker :}
wood, felt, etc
it's a deck-building roguelike with poker elements
only need to figure out how I want the spells to be sorted and then we're all good.
oh ya Kusane, how's Hanged Man going?
not much progress ngl
there was this thing that impacted my life in big ways
it's called blue prince
OH HEHE TRUE
but laso it's meant to be a background project anyway since i basically have like 2354564254365 wips going together at once
I’ve made great progress with my (still unnamed) mod today. I’ve invented five whole new ways to crash the game this morning alone
akak im bad at picking a thing and finishing it and keep switcihng which thing will be my hyperfixation for the month
i think my mod is alright i think
i made ktane like modules in i wanna maker
i think your mod is good i think
lol
and also a level where you literally just solve an nyt connect board
what
My mod sucks
realllllll omg so real
I hate it
the interface is done i just am in the process of writing more boards to put into it
so far i only have 11
sounds like torture [ktane mod]
you dont do them all, it just pick a random board each time you play the level
ohh
a modular ktane joker would be cool i think
but idk much about the game
you know you’ve fucked up the game real bad when the crash screen is blue instead of grey. I don’t think Balatro likes stacking multiple editions at once very much
oh i have a WIP ktane mod that i forgot about for several months :3
oh
Wires and The Button and Who's On First work
oh cool
if anyone still working on ktane feel free to yoink these modules
i think they're neat
anyway off topic
who up jonking they ker
working on the boss blind i made earlier ^^
then will test it out, and maybe play a run of Phanta
hey guys joker idea
if first hand of round is a single ace, apply its enchancement, edition, seal, and suit to a random card in hand```
conversion
though, they're called enhancements
”There might not be One”
maybe a SarcPot joker called Asexual
i cant spell
that could be the joker name
idk all i have is like that thing where you have a crush on someone and you start copying aspects of them
like you start liking the same band, having similar fasion sense, go to the same cafe
hehe what about Influencer
not relevant though that's just what it reminds me of most
oh yeah that's probably it huh
Easily Impressionable Children
mr beast joker that gives you $1,000,000 if you can reach naneinf on your first hand of blind
trendsetter?
do they go 🛫
and then 🛬
reference that one(1) person in this entire server will get
Mr. Beast Joker that gives you $1,000,000 if you can keep your cursor in his circle for 1 week
Mr. Beast Joker that makes you pick between a Rare Joker or a go at Wheel of Fortune
Mister Beast Joker also has to draw an annoying circle and a bunch of arrows around every boss blind
Mr Beast Joker could also be another variation of +10 Mult, highly annoying
destroys the adjacent joker with less sell value and gains +mult?
Mr. Beast Joker that constantly ask you to end your run in exchange for starting with more money next run
Employs all common jokers into unethical working spaces
double it and give it to the next person >:3
or maybe it gives the sell value to the other joker
removes all sell value from all jokers to the left, gains half, gives the rest to the joker on the right
Mr. Beast Joker that gives +1 Mult for every hour the executable is left open
all common jokers have a 1 in 4 chance to be destroyed at end of round
otherwise, double sell value
Osmosis jones
aka gambling :3
Glass simulator
yeah
Mister Beast joker that has one of the “Mister Beast Joker” effects suggested by the discord, effect changes each round
Glass Joker but as in an Enhancement
bister meast
fragile
wait no fragile is X3 for 1 in 8
it's glass
oh
Seals On Everything lets you put enhancements on Jokers and only crashes some of the time as a result
steel steel joker?
All effects are disabled
+a lot of chips
however, it's invincible to all Boss effects
If a hand contains a stone card, convert the joker to the right to a stone joker 🔥
doesn't get flipped over, doesn't get debuffed, doesn't get shuffled, etc
+chips should be equal to rarity*sell calue
then again that could be an issue with gift card
gift card would go crazy
what if
yea
i
Enhancement on Consumables
stone tower
no i meant like
would it just give +50 chips passively
Glass Planet Card
actually that would be a rad idea
you couldn't get rid of it
your stuck with a rock
3 in 4 chance to Upgrade hand twice, 1 in 4 chance to do nothing
"held enhancement tarot cards give the bonus of their enhancement"
Lucky Planet card, add an aditionally +20 base chip to upgraded hand
WAITSISTIWISIRIEJSJSKA
I have an idea for an edition but it's a bit too weak
there’s probably a use case for it anyways
I mean
1 in 3 chance to destroy each consumable```
i love ui
The edition effect is "can't be debuffed"
urple
if nothing else, it makes the good enhancements feel stronger
is this good
The worst thing is that you'll more likely get more editions on jokers than playing cards
So like
does anyone have a build with good mods?
could be janky with modded consumables, maybe all tarot cards?
my mods fun
Wait I forgot perishable existed
yeah the mods of this server is pretty good
those could be modded too
does their job well
is it possible to force use a consumable on a card?
within the code, removing perishable and making it temporarily perishable-incompatible would actually be sick
you can just call apply without using the button
would it be possible to do that in context.before though
Fridge Joker that gives no boost, but when held Perishable Sticker timer do not go down
why wouldn't it be
because the selection is being used for the scored cards?
arguably thatd be easier you don't have to deselect anything
oh
There should be more jokers that synergize with stickers fr
how do i play with a random on multiplayer
i love useless garbage on white stake
No like
oh they count as deselected when the hand is ppayed?
wahoo
Food Jokers do not reduce
mwah
I mean like madness
Does something but is a lot better on sticker stakes
ice cream would melt slower
Imagine a joker that gives your money back when you lose it (not by spending it)
i want to make a Mao based joker
burglar but it gains sell value for each discard stolen
ooh a joker with a timer would be cool
you have to win within the time limit
to get money or maybe consumables/planet/specteral cards
stressful
Twitch Integrated Joker that gains +2 mult every times chat says +2 but lose -2 mult every time chat says -2
If mult goes below 0, the Joker is destroyed
30 seconds to finsh the round would be fine right?
finity lavloop does that
that’s real rough when there’s literally any retrigger effect at all
"every good idea has been taken"
"simpsons did it"
Imagine a guarantee joker, that makes it so when you lose money that isn't by buying something in the shop, you gain your money back, and it lasts for 10 rounds before it expires
I need help
I'm trying to make my own mod for this game because I started making cards of a streamer I like watching. (He bought me Balatro) How do I even mod?? I can't figure it out and I'm very confused by all the sites
they're taken because they're good diea
diea
diea
i think start by checking the steamodded page and reading through that
I’d start with making a texture pack of the base game jokers
Alright thanks
feel free to ask quiestion often
i started like that too
im still there but i also started like that
doesn't translate over to adding new stuff well imo
you wont end like that tho
-# hopefully
Twitch integrated mod that spawns either photograph or hanging chad anytime chat says > looks inside. Will destroy non-photochad cards if there is not room (this is not a drill. I plan to make this)
Jokers that appears to be another random effect like Misprint, but actually each time it gives mult equal to the next digit in your ip address
no, but can be a good way to handle a streamer thank-you
127.0.0.-
if they redem like chat points maybe otherwise abuse city
localho-
yea thats the joke
oh my god bruh
nice tall window
chunky UI
this is hell
Microphone Joker that gives mult equal to the decibel level of Mic input the moment scoring started
big squares itty bitty text
I mean, they can only have so much fun before they destroy the card that spawns the photochads in the first place
the streamer should be able to judge how this will turn out when they purchase the Joker
idk, chat integration on a semi-strategy game feel weird to me
mike from deltarune
Sure, but it drives engagement which is good for everybody. In the long run, it’s not the most incredibly busted Joker effect compared with a lot of mods, and it’s also rather tame compared with a few of my other Jokers so it’s fine as something like a low rare high uncommon
Feet Pics Joker because feet are the opposite of hands
best part is i don't even have abbie
ignore the 3rd joker in the pack he's not relevant /j
the woker
For instance, another Joker I’ve got is “Hiker EX: each card gains +1 «gains +1 chips when scored» when scored” which scales factorially while you own the joker and linearly afterwards
"and they were roommates"
yay
oh my goddd they were roommates
check abby road
no shirts? have you check the soup store?
ts so jank
the hell you trying to do?
you should add me to your mod /j
cursed use of table
youre right i should name the local variable thunk instead
"what nice FACE you have i can see your FACE[2] they are very nice"
descriptive naming in shambles
much better
local shambles = 1
Balatro modders when there's a "adding your sona to your mod as a legendary joker" at the function
thank god that comment would have never known what was going on 
shambles = {}
shambles["descriptive naming"] = true
"my variable names are so good I don't need to add any comments"
embrace using shit instead of nil
surely i will not be confused out of my head when i need to edit this code later
i think the only comments i have are one that say the name of the joker above the key for the joker
genius
thinking about having a joker with rotating effects, how the fuck would you word this
Shifting Seasons: Rotates through effects after every blind beaten. Current effect:
Spring: Scored cards give 2 times their chip value as +mult.
Summer: Give the last scored card of each hand a random enhancement.
Autumn: Gain 1 discard after playing a hand.
Winter: At the end of a round, gain $1 per 3 cards remaining in the deck.
Also use metatable jank to ensure the global var shit is always nil
first one then have each other thing as a info_queue
indeed
i meant word the “effect rotates after beating a blind” part
implementing it in medium right now
speaking of which thoughts on the effects themselves?
should do it in extra large instead
at the end of the round joker switches to the next season
feels like itd be awkward to parse that since one of the seasons is an eco joker
itd switch after getting the money from it, obviously
you could do it from selecting blind
oo yeah that could be fun
starts at winter immediately becomes spring, im a bit torn between uncommon and rare but itd probably be a rare? giving jokers rarities is a bit hard for me i can never determine between common/uncommon or uncommon/rare
thoughts on the effects themselves?
you had better protect yourself against me putting shit = 69 in smods
FUCK
spring’s the weakest of the four, mostly by design
the point is that its not consistent, but can be strong
its ok i will hook game update to set it to nil every frame
that would be SMODS.shit though or am i a dumb ass
no I'm explicitly assigning value to the global variable shit
rare it does alot
yeah
which is only nil so long as it hasn't been assigned another value
it does a lot but not all at once
its ok i will replace all mentions of shit as (shit and nil)
repeat that find+replace 10 times
true
i mean vagabond is rare so it should be fine
yea
vagabond serves one purpose and it is to make tarot cards if you have less than four dollars
they should rename vagabond to googoogagabond in the gameplay update
oooh winter seems a bit
vagenebond
a bit what
well id assume its in a binary state
i love big deck synergy its like my calling card
idk like an average of what? $12?
it only procs once every four rounds though
big deck synergy you said?
big d🇮ck synergy
so its okay if its a bigger payout as it wont be in play as often
you have a standard 52 card deck.
you draw 7
remaining cards 45
you discard five cards to get a better hand
remaining cards 40
you dont win in a single hand, draw 5 more
remaining cards 35
you then win the blind
35/3 is 11 without the remainder
gain 11 bucks
and its a lot lower if your deck is thinned
yeh i was close
ahah i math fine
yeah
is this overpowered or underpowered
its a lot of money but its fine because winter is only active once every four rounds so it rounds out to about $3 a round
seems about right for a legendary
how does that proc?
which is worse than golden joker
but if you beat it in one hand or dont use discards or have a bigger deck you get more
wait, what does separating it into two arrays do
oh i read that as game mb
does it make it two separate text area or
no sorry its actually if glungus.penis is true
or use smaller hands, or […]
thats a global variable
two text boxes
multiboxes
yes
its been a thing for ages
yeah
IVE BEEN DOING THIS UI THING FOR NOTHING?????
is summer too strong? thats the one im most worried about but i think its fine?
brb gonna go sit to the right of ceremonial knife
its okay youre eternal
*ceremonial dagger
"no don't do it your worth $0"
if you want to sacrifice yourself and give a different joker twice your sell value as mult at least do it properly
giving you an eternal sticker
🫄 - im worth double
fella is priceless what can i sayy
actually would it be better to use that
wtf
rare error the hell
I agree it should be in SMODS
that's new
how do i convert the main_end thing into separate box
right now its in the same box
haunted smods build
it detected all the shit
i didnt actually do shit
huh???????
would it at all be reasonable for smods to add a different type of take_ownership with functionality similar to a hook
i need to do a lot of overrides for my mod to function (I need to change many of the vanilla joker calculate functions)
and if another mod loads later and overrides one of the jokers I overrided
then at least as far as I know
my override gets overridden
smods of doom and despair
i think i migghttvee fucked up ui somewhere?
this is impossible to pinpoint though because everything worked 5 minutes ago and now it doesnt
i made no changes
can't you just hook the calculate in G.P_CENTERS
it's just a function
oh i also need to change their config tables as well
its a banging function though
would i just go thru all the centers and do
center.config.extra = {}
center.config.extra.[my_new_config_var] = 0
on the appropriate ones or something
you can change everything about them right?
i think so???
i need to test it
i have rehearsal in like 15 mins
and i dont stop til 3:30pm
its like 10:45 am right now
😭
oh yeah you can change everything about it
the error is
when i was changing the variable name to thunk
i missed 1 instance
Lmao
currently X9 mult
erm
well that explains the jank crashes 💀
quick make iso host a AMA
+X1
face twitches
ok i fucked around and now it is somewhat aligned
when you do something so embarrasing you lowk just dont want to do anything ever again
the 10s remain cringe but at least it's better than resorting to T
glad to see the colouring still work with the jank i've done
max X12, not bad
this is really cool
make it more jank by showing cards instead of letternumbers
eh actually this might be more cringe
wtf is X
daubed
also bingo sprite
LOL
yeah
would be sick if it used "X:" when it was done
I have managed to get my mod to not crash on launch! Yippee!!
Now when I try and spawn any enhancement from the debug menu it crashes my gpu driver
elite ball knowledge???
getcho bigass sticker out the JOKER bruh
like the colour or
can’t tell if this is progress or not lmao
atleast its a different crash
when you play it it changes to have a X:
idk it sticks out more
the crossing out is uh
oh right
what if you used X for 10 instead
not easy to impl
how do i do that
{X:colour,C:white}KH{}
roman numeral
oh oop
wtf
i think youre supposed to add custom colors to G.COLORS directly
im begging you to just... generate it
an array of array
so i can do this
or a board
x: is for passing a colour from loc_vars
did you know a table can have a table as a key
what
no, it's for bg colors
isnt that V
so it coluors based on the last two char of the string
it's v and b
oh
i knew it im goated
oh that doesn't work else where my bad
i have two dupes set cuz all other cards are two char and a space to compensate for 10s being 3 char
x is static background
text styling doesnt even work in text nodes no?
isn’t there a way to set the background vortex colors? Am I tripping or does it just not like translucency values
not sure how to do background in a text node
put it on a box/row/column node ez
yes, bosses do it
i mean its hard cuz the 6x11 font isnt monospace
ui sucks
yeah there is but your hooking the code or edit peoples code that did already
idk go ask in modding dev
im lazy
true...
supls
i agree text highlight would make it more clear but i am limited by my skill
im pretty sure you do like G.GAME.saved_cardarea = the_cardarea:save()
and then the_cardarea:load(G.GAME.saved_cardarea)
wasnt strikethrough recently added
i have sacrificed by adding in a bit more jank just to have the grid align
oh
cuz the old display way had rows with 10s visible wider than rows without 10s
which sucked ass textnode my behated
well that sounds easy
nvm
my peak is still jonkler
it's objectively a shit joker and it's not as creative code wise
i just like the idea
just the sheer concept of it, existing, at all
joker
i have Not unfortunately
i like metaprogramming
hello im old person and i have no idea what jonkler means
whats metaprogramming
what if programmed you into meta
assuming we're talking about time in this server and not age
medium
