is there a way to check if a function was called with a specific wording like if self == context.other_card then (the example won't work because there is not a value for context.other_card in :get_id()) but can you somehow get the string version of the wording and not the actual data it holds?

I am returning the id as a true statement when a certain joker is in hand, I am trying to make sure that when calculating poker hands it returns its base value. as when calculating poker hands, it uses hand[i]:get_id() while joker code uses context.other_card:get_id() (I am doing this because I want the joker to return 4 different ids when the player has the joker, and this code should make all cards count as any card which I can fine-tune from there)

you can check that it's a playing card that is being juiced and increment your counter

This hooks into the shuffle function to put a card of each Enhancement on top of the deck. Keep in mind it has no condition, so it'll always apply as is.
local shuffle_ref = CardArea.shuffle
function CardArea:shuffle(_seed)
shuffle_ref(self, _seed)
if false then
local idx = #self.cards
local seen = {}
for j = #self.cards, 1, -1 do
local card_j = self.cards[j]
if card_j.ability.set == 'Enhanced' and not seen[card_j.ability.name] and j ~= idx then
seen[card_j.ability.name] = true
self.cards[idx], self.cards[j] = self.cards[j], self.cards[idx]
idx = idx - 1
end
end
self:set_ranks()
end
end
well, actually I put an if false then so it never runs
If you want an extra card, you can do this
calculate = function(self, card, context)
if context.first_hand_drawn and #G.deck.cards > 0 then
for i = 1, #G.deck.cards do
local _card = G.deck.cards[i]
sendDebugMessage("Sightseeing… "..tostring(_card:get_id()))
if _card:get_id() == 3 then
card_eval_status_text(context.blueprint_card or card, 'extra', nil, nil, nil, {message = 'tour guide', colour = G.C.PURPLE})
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
trigger = 'before',
func = function()
if _card and not _card.removed and _card.area == G.deck then
draw_card(G.deck, G.hand, nil,'up', true, _card)

I don't know if that algorithm is a random uniform conditioned shuffle

I suspect it's not uniform but I haven't done the math
If anyone wants to I'm curious
The remaining cards could probably be shuffled again to make it uniform tho
brisk pond

I'm going to eat a pizza in 5 minutes
zealous glen
woohoo
brisk pond
fully stereotypical
zealous glen
I suspect it's not uniform but I haven't done the math
I think I convinced myself it’s not uniform
Imagine a deck with two blue cards
After a shuffle, the distribution of the first blue card is decreasing, and the distribution of the second blue card is increasing
If I move the first blue card to the top, then the distribution of blue cards in the remainder is the distribution of the second card, which isn’t uniform
If you selected either the first or the second to be moved to the top, then I think it becomes uniform again
But I wonder if there’s a more efficient way of doing it. I mean, you could do a conditioned shuffle from the start
@brisk pond maybe implement this new version instead
brisk pond
I'll see that after the pizza
zealous glen
What do you think @mellow sable
brisk pond
maybe taking the card you want and putting it in first place, and then shuffling the remainder of the deck?
mellow sable
What are you trying to program?
zealous glen
maybe taking the card you want and putting it in first place, and then shuffling...
Works but I don’t think it’s efficient; also you’d need to specifically shuffle a part of a CardArea
brisk pond
The first card you draw each round has the highest rank in your deck
this joker
mellow sable
There’s an effect similar to this planned for Cryptid but I didn’t code it yet
brisk pond

zealous glen
There’s an effect similar to this planned for Cryptid but I didn’t code it yet
I sent the code above but
brisk pond
that works for "the first two cards" etc..
mellow sable
I’d imagine you have to hook the draw function to check highest rank using rank api
And pick a random one if tied
zealous glen
I think the remaining of the deck isn’t uniformly random
mellow sable
You could always reshuffle it again
zealous glen
So I sketched a proof showing my algorithm doesn’t quite keep the deck uniform
And I thought of an improvement
My algorithm just moves the first card to the top of the deck with a swap
Or draws the card directly to your hand
The solution is to go over the entire deck then choose one of the options randomly
mellow sable
Yeah I think that’s the best idea
zealous glen
Which should make the result uniform
But not be as computationally demanding
You can check my code above
Well, the original one
zealous glen
This hooks into the `shuffle` function to put a card of each Enhancement on top ...
@mellow sable
Below is the code that just draws it to your hand
mellow sable
Oh you’re hooking shuffle, interesting
I don’t rly have time to peruse the code but it might be better to hook the function that draws a card
brisk pond
The first card you draw each round has the highest rank in your deck
what if i wanted to do that without hooking an existing function?
what would you do?
zealous glen
but i want a scalable solution
You can use SMODS.find_card or whatever it was called, or a custom global variable, to keep track of how many instances there are.
Also, to make it linear in deck size, keep track of the [number of instances] highest ranked cards seem as you iterate over the deck. (Although I don’t think it’s linear in instance size; it’s probably the product of both)
zealous glen
I don’t rly have time to peruse the code but it might be better to hook the func...
What makes you think that’s better?
zealous glen
what would you do?
Inject probably
The next option is to just overwrite the base behavior, but why do that when you can hook
mellow sable
What makes you think that’s better?
Not rly sure, this was just my first thought on where to hook
brisk pond
what you think about this thought?
if context.first_hand_drawn then
- get hand[1]
- create a table D with all cards in the whole deck ordered by rank
- swap hand[1] and D[1]
zealous glen
Not rly sure, this was just my first thought on where to hook
But how do you know which call of the function you’re in?
zealous glen
what you think about this thought?
`if context.first_hand_drawn then`
- get hand...
I think it would look weird, since you’d see it happen

As I said
brisk pond
that is not a problem
brisk pond
adding a message from the Joker and you see its ability happening with your eyes

brisk pond
And if it doesn't exists you can make your own too
wouldn't that scramble the timing?

I don't see how adding a custom text would scramble the timing, unless you understood something else
brisk pond
you have to put your joker after the one to its left and before the one to its right

it's just this

if you just display the message, then the joker acts before all the others
wintry solar
if you call card_eval_status_text does it not add it into the event queue?
brisk pond
i don't think because the game doesn't just read a joker and execute it. it reads it, adds its execution to a table and then executes all values in that table
i don't know if you can effectively solve this problem
zealous glen
I don’t understand your issue
The game works by doing that
Adding a custom text can’t scramble the timing
Otherwise the game wouldn’t work

@mellow sable Thinking about it, when multiple effects are trying to draw cards, they don't know about each other, which can be an issue if the draw is inside of an event. I'm not sure what's the best way to deal with it.
Either setting a variable on the card to say it's supposed to be drawn, or rewriting/copy-paste-editing draw_card to make it instantaneous and not create an event
I wonder if the latter is generic enough, since you can do the search inside of an event, and thus in theory proc while Jokers are resolving and not outside of the event queue
I quickly set up the former before going to sleep which works locally, but might not work with other mods
What version of Lua does Balatro use?
mellow sable
LuaJIT, based on 5.1
zealous glen
LuaJIT, based on 5.1
I was also thinking about how to stack multiple deck reordering effects in an intuitive way, and I found one that uses a function introduced in 5.3, table.move
There's a solution with table.insert but I don't quite understand it
To be fair I don't know if I understand the one with table.move either
oh wait it just removes the element then adds it again
I wonder if that would mess up the deck by manipulating the card table directly 🤔
rain imp
In this piece of code in state_events.lua
--If chips added, do chip add event and add the chips to the total
if effects[ii].chips then
if effects[ii].card then juice_card(effects[ii].card) end
hand_chips = mod_chips(hand_chips + effects[ii].chips)
update_hand_text({delay = 0}, {chips = hand_chips})
card_eval_status_text(scoring_hand[i], 'chips', effects[ii].chips, percent)
end```
when does the `if effects[ii].card then juice_card(effects[ii].card) end` trigger? It doesn't seem to be when a card juice_up animation is played even though it refers to it and everything else in the function is being triggeredit jiggles a card if the card exists, no?
rain imp
If a card has chips, yes, it should, but a debug message was never sent when the card played. Moreover, it should've triggered a whole chain of events with debug messages but none had been sent
And also, if I uncondition the string it crashes since it doesn't know from where to pull .card piece
tepid crow
Oh yeah I see what you mean
tepid crow
In this piece of code in state_events.lua
``` for ii = 1, #ef...
seems like juice_card isn't used as often at the code seems to imply
rain imp
But it uses this exact animation for almost everything, and there're no other places I've found where the scoring card specifically calls for it
tepid crow
assuming you are interested in jokers, :calculate_joker needs to return both a valid type (chips, mult, etc) and itself as card
And most jokers that you would expect to don't
One of the jokers that does is Lucky Cat for example
rain imp
Actually, I need jokers AND the cards in the played hand
tepid crow
oh wait, were you the person that was asking about juice_up before?
rain imp
Yes
tepid crow
I think you want Card:juice_up instead of juice_card?
rain imp
Oh, there's a huge chain of things it triggers across 4 files, including Card:juice_up
I'm away from pc so I can't recite
tepid crow
are you talking about juice_card?
rain imp
But there's a spaghetti being called by juice_card
tepid crow
because all juice_card does is call Card:juice_up:
function juice_card(card)
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
trigger = 'immediate',
func = (function() card:juice_up(0.7);return true end)
}))
end
And Card:juice_up calls movable:juice_up
rain imp
Actually what I did is I copied and inserted this whole chain of events as spice_up and so on with every single function having a debug message (including an initial if), and none were sent while visually everything is alright
tepid crow
wow the spelling of "juice" is starting to look weird
Card:juice_up seems to work fine for me (5 juices for the cards, 2 for the jokers)
lots of background noise though, mostly when hovering over stuff, so you'll have to filter for that
rain imp
Yea, that's why I need this exact procedure to be called
There's a whole block dedicated to specific card triggers
tepid crow
you're using juice_card instead of Card:juice_card to avoid the "background noise"?
rain imp
Correct
tepid crow
you're avoiding more than just the background noise
tepid crow
Yes. You'll have to filter for that somehow
juice_card isn't called for scoring in hand for example
rain imp
Well, you see, if I count the triggers of the chips function it works like a clock, but it counts before the hand has even been played
I want it to count each time an animation is played, for gradual growth
Aesthetically pleasing
tepid crow
so what, it works fine, the timing is just off?
rain imp
That's why I'm trying to track each time an animation starts
It counts a slightly wrong thing
That's why I have recreated the whole juice_up chain of events so I can track each use of this exact animation procedure
tepid crow
right
rain imp
Which I will call only in specific cases like chip and mult card triggers
And it won't be called by hovering and stuff
tepid crow
all seems good, so I'm confused about what the issue is?
rain imp
It doesn't use the aforementioned if
Just ignores it
And idk from where else it calls for this animation if not from there
tepid crow
what do those ifs etc look like?
tepid crow
you're asking who else calls Card:juice_up if not juice_card?
tepid crow
right, slight issue with that, there's more than 1 or 2 instances of that happening:

rain imp
Can't read them rn, I'll test them when I can
tepid crow
sure thing - you could also filter one of the calls of :juice_card and raise an error to get the full callstack

Also we can go the opposite way and try safely unconditioning the line so it actually triggers

@rain imp have you looked in card_eval_status_text? I’m pretty sure every card calls that when scored and is juiced in there. I think the one you were looking at is for extra juice ups that are needed for certain jokers

I'm using a `CardArea` at the moment
So you’re using Cards to represent the Chips?

I figured configuring them like a deck would let them stack up quite nicely

like sdmath said, you can either
-completely rewrite the function
-do a lovely injection
-hook (or wrap as I like to call it) the function
maiden phoenix
Example of an override from D6Jokers, basically you save the function, and call it in your new function
Lovely injection is fetching a specific pattern in the original source code and placing it before, at or after said pattern to add your code
maiden phoenix
Yea?
wooden nexus
No Faces is the original
I'd want something like
position as after, the pattern as the no faces command and then the payload as my no suits thing
correct?
wooden nexus
Gotcha
maiden phoenix
For your thing it would be "game.lua"
wooden nexus
I'm gonna have to do one for each suit to make it easy on me
is it messy code? Yeah. Does it matter? no

night pagoda
Bunco removes the new suits from decks
Not really
it just has in_pool value that prevents decks from adding the cards
zealous glen
See? I said it was a Steamodded feature
night pagoda
But I still want to think about this
Adding in_pool to vanilla suits doesn't sound very stable
Replacing*

Okay but you're trying to solve something i'm not trying to do
I'm just trying to figure out why the code isn't loading it
zealous glen
I'm just trying to figure out why the code isn't loading it
Have you looked at the dump
wooden nexus
like 3 times
night pagoda
I'm looking at the code and it seems that there's actually base game functionality for removing suits from the start of the run for the challenge decks; perhaps it could be incorporated here?
wooden nexus
what am I supposed to look for?
wintry solar
look for wahtever is causing your error
zealous glen

No? Because I didn't do a lovely patch for local Back_apply_to_run_ref = Back.apply_to_run
shell tangle
I think the challenge thing is the current method they're going with, Checkered deck's is this, under apply_to_run()
if self.name == 'Checkered Deck' then
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
func = function()
for k, v in pairs(G.playing_cards) do
if v.base.suit == 'Clubs' then
v:change_suit('Spades')
end
if v.base.suit == 'Diamonds' then
v:change_suit('Hearts')
end
end
return true
end
}))
end
So, maybe try replacing the starting_params things with something like this.
zealous glen
No? Because I didn't do a lovely patch for `local Back_apply_to_run_ref = Back.a...
Oh so you’re not doing a patch anymore? What are you doing then?
wintry solar
what's on the line of your error?
wooden nexus
hang on, lemme mess with something
wooden nexus
what's on the line of your error?
Should I just send the code?
Eh, lemme try something
wintry solar
sure
wooden nexus
do i need to make a second .toml?
wintry solar
no
wintry solar
can you send your file?
wooden nexus
wintry solar
wooden nexus
what did I do wrong?
wooden nexus
ok
wintry solar
SMODS.Back{
name = "DNDG Test Deck",
key = "DNDGTest",
pos = {x = 6, y = 0},
atlas = 'DnDG_Decks',
loc_txt = {
name ="DNDG Test Deck",
text={
"Test Deck",
},
},
apply = function(self)
G.GAME.starting_params.no_hearts = true
end
}```then use this instead
then in your toml, change the suit names to just the first letters
wintry solar
then if you need to do others, just add to the apply function
wooden nexus
gotcha
Idk what's going on but sometimes with selected back, it crashes
but i reload with no changes and it's fine
Not what i meant by a deck of nothing
wintry solar
whats the crash message?
wintry solar
try viewed_back instead
wooden nexus
shell tangle
Try putting the G.GAME.selected_back.effect.center.name == 'DNDG Test Deck' in the suit in parentheses?
wintry solar
change name to key
wooden nexus
I tried and it didn't work
languid mirage
probably because you didnt change the string to the actual deck key?
wooden nexus
hang on
okay i must be seriously screwing up balatro because now i'm getting cloud errors
wintry solar
when are you getting this crash?
languid mirage
nil check selected_back?
wooden nexus
few seconds after loading the game
languid mirage
G.GAME.selected_back and (G.GAME.selected_back....your code) or false
wintry solar
return (G.GAME.selected_back and G.GAME.selected_back.effect.center.key == 'whatever your key is')
I don't know why in_pool is being called in the menu though
zealous glen
I don't know why `in_pool` is being called in the menu though
Maybe because it creates cards
For the splash animation and the main menu
wintry solar
oh good shout
zealous glen
frosty dock
me when selected_back_key
zealous glen
me when Myst adds dancing isaac to L Corp
hallow forge
that;s a deck of nothing alright
maiden phoenix
Can't wait to use "Death" to turn my into a
wooden nexus
zealous glen
Why don’t you use to your into a
wooden nexus
So yeah, what's the problem?
zealous glen
The problem is
wintry solar
I don't think selected_back_key is actually a key funnily enough
can you throw a sendDebugMessage(G.GAME.selected_back_key) in that function?
frosty dock
oh right it's the name 💀
zealous glen
frosty dock
Is it not the center object?
wintry solar
but it's the same as what gets sent to Back() which takes a center
two questions.
1 - should the tower of chips display tooltips on every chip, or just the top one?
2 - how is best to lay out the selection. I was thinking 3 rows of 6?
zealous glen
two questions.
1 - should the tower of chips display tooltips on **every** chip,...
I think if it’s all of them, it should move the pile up and down to focus on a specific one, and it probably needs some careful UI to make it feel good to hover over
wintry solar
yeah the hitboxes are nowhere near at the moment 🙃

If the multiline deck name is automatic that’s awesome
tidal maple
@wintry solar you can help me in dm?
night pagoda
why are the stakes look so squashed?
wintry solar

god that caused me such a pain because I overlooked the auto scale in one place
wintry solar
<@1057290504452186173> you can help me in dm?
sure
but yes, Math, they are automatic
mellow sable
Awesome
zealous glen

I don’t think they need to be, necessarily, since I expect you to need to cheat them to make it feel good
zealous glen
why are the stakes look so squashed?
Most people didn’t like the original look
I wasn’t one of those people but
night pagoda
What was wrong before?
I don't like how this looks at all because it looks like someone just stretched the entire thing in photoshop
wintry solar
zealous glen
I didn’t see an issue
wintry solar
this was how they started

this looks much better???
wooden nexus
Welp. Next thing i gotta do is figure out how to make packs, how to remove cards from packs and keep cards from strength and such cards
tidal maple
@night pagoda can help me?
night pagoda
of course, what do you want?
zealous glen
Welp. Next thing i gotta do is figure out how to make packs, how to remove cards...
why remove cards from packs? Can’t you make your own packs?
wintry solar
he wants help modding a pirated copy of the game
tidal maple
make mods non steam balatro
wooden nexus
why remove cards from packs? Can’t you make your own packs?
They’re playing cards i’m making
I don’t want them appearing in standard packs tho
zealous glen
Ah I see
night pagoda
I don't think there will be any differences in how to help tho
zealous glen
I don’t want them appearing in standard packs tho
Maybe there’s an in_pool feature
To add to your playing cards
night pagoda
pirated games usually do not change their behavior unless it's like an Electronic Arts game or something
hallow forge
you'd want to patch create_card
night pagoda
sure
tidal maple
Big thanks
