[tepid crow]

but regardless, isn't that fixed if I make an obj_buffer in my code?

[frosty dock]

no

the main issue is that in the tree of classes that the injection routine passes through, all classes with an obj_table and obj_buffer are considered to be leaves

[tepid crow]

yes makes sense when I look at this function

but doesn't Center (a class with obj_table/buffer and thus a leaf) also get extended?

[frosty dock]

yes, but there are no subclasses of Center that need a custom pre-/post-injection step

[tepid crow]

Center is a "leaf" (which is becoming a very vague definition for me now) and thus has it's subclasses only inserted on steamodded start?

as opposed to GameObject that isn't a leaf, and thus inserts any subclass at any time, including those after steamodded start?

[frosty dock]

Center is a leaf in the sense that its subclasses are not considered by injectObjects, as subclasses would usually have the same obj_table/obj_buffer inherited from Center

so exploring these as additional nodes would mean centers get injected multiple times

[tepid crow]

right, inheritance

makes sense so far

[frosty dock]

I think this should work?

[tepid crow]

at that point the obvious question is why is Center even a leaf? because it has objects?

[frosty dock]

this would be a consistent way between classes that do/don't call inject_class to hook onto the injection process

[frosty dock]

because they share a common object table and are all injected roughly the same way, with the difference normally being controllable by inject functions

it would be perfectly reasonable to call SMODS.Center directly and provide these functions yourself because there's nothing inherently different

[tepid crow]

I mean the code seems valid to me, but I'm just starting to understand steamodded itself 😅

[frosty dock]

maybe <pre/post>_inject_class is more consistent naming

[tepid crow]

otherwise it would be kinda confusing with inject yes

[tepid crow]

so I could do :inject_class() myself? I tried doing something like that but all the attempts I made failed lol

[frosty dock]

you shouldn't

[tepid crow]

fair 'nuff

[muted timber]

spends like an hour trying to find the problem
realise that i wrote 'voucher = ' instead of 'vouchers ='

🙃

[tepid crow]

hey, at least you found it >:D

[muted timber]

who knew that the code had plural

never seen something like that ever before

[tepid crow]

though you really should be using steamodded...

[muted timber]

true but i was too lazy to write more stuff

[frosty dock]

I was thinking I might have to push 0805i, but thankfully it's the next day now

[frosty dock]

not worth it to be that lazy, it'll mean more work later

• you literally can't distribute anything or get anyone to help you debug

[muted timber]

yeah but it was really more of a one-time thing

[tepid crow]

[limpid flint]

Tomorrow ?

[tepid crow]

tomorrow

[frosty dock]

recent steamodded is fairly good at not making you worry too much about the specifics of the game's code

[wintry solar]

is having responsive deck sizes worth this horrible 0.4 second delay if a deck adds a consumable?

[tepid crow]

if "a deck adds a consumable"?

[frosty dock]

can the delay not be changed?

[wintry solar]

it probably can

I don't know why it's there tbh

[frosty dock]

pushed tomorrow's fix upstream btw

[tepid crow]

oh I see, that gets rid of the super

[maiden phoenix]

Darn they almost all fit in one page

This is sick tho

[wintry solar]

they would do if cryptid wasnt installed

[maiden phoenix]

Damn you Cryptid

[wintry solar]

also selecting some of your decks spits out a LOT of debug messages

[maiden phoenix]

That's weird...

What are those debug messages exactly?

[wintry solar]

when I click the alst one I get a whole load of keys

[frosty dock]

oops, that thing I changed reversed the stake order 💀

[tepid crow]

lmao

[maiden phoenix]

Wdym by "click on it"

[tepid crow]

when he clicks on it in his deck selector lol

[maiden phoenix]

Huh

[tepid crow]

those are from SMOD itself

[frosty dock]

actually i don't even know what may not work correctly 💀

[edgy reef]

Neither do I.

[tepid crow]

ejwu wrote that so that makes sense

[wintry solar]

is this correct stake selection behaviour I haven't played this game properly in ages lol

[maiden phoenix]

Oh shit

Ok I see the issue...

[wintry solar]

its when apply to run is called

[maiden phoenix]

I have an util function with a debug call in it...

Will remove it

[wooden nexus]

Welp, I should start making ranks

[tepid crow]

wait, apply to run gets called... oh right because you need the decksize

wow

[wintry solar]

yeah, it's the only way I can find to actually calculate decksize consistently

[tepid crow]

I actually saw SDM's debug message then but discarded it cuz it was in apply lol

[tepid crow]

I mean, what other options were there? 🤔

[wintry solar]

gah, stake api has so many bugs in

[maiden phoenix]

Pushed the debug message removal

[zealous glen]

What do you mean “consumeable”?

[tepid crow]

aure just enabled hard mode lmao

[wintry solar]

what on earth is this for thunk

[tepid crow]

oh I found a fun little piece of thunk code a minute ago

[wintry solar]

"if you win on a stake make sure all the previous stakes have a win saved"

WHY

[tepid crow]

            if node.config.vert then local thunk = tx; tx = ty; ty = thunk end

swapping variables by using a temp thunk (don't mind the fact you can a, b = b, a in lua)

[mellow sable]

#🕹・game-discussion message

[wintry solar]

[tepid crow]

wtf lmao

[tepid crow]

no no, it's a var named

[frosty dock]

yeah wtf

anyways I still have no idea why the version where the same code runs for every stake works but doing it only once doesn't

so i just reverted to that

[wintry solar]

aure do you know who wrote stake api?

[frosty dock]

yes

MathIsFun did

[vague monolith]

hey do u guys understand how the fusion mod api works because im trying to make my own addons for a pack and i am so lost 😭

[tepid crow]

just for clarity, which fusion mod? I think there's multiple lol

Right, so, quick follow-up on that:

G.P_LOCKED = {}
for k, v in pairs(G.P_CENTERS) do
    if not v.wip and not v.demo then
        ...
        if not v.unlocked and (string.find(k, '^j_') or string.find(k, '^b_') or string.find(k, '^v_')) and meta.unlocked[k] then
            v.unlocked = true
        end
        if not v.unlocked and (string.find(k, '^j_') or string.find(k, '^b_') or string.find(k, '^v_')) then
            G.P_LOCKED[#G.P_LOCKED + 1] = v
        end
        ...
    end
end

these string patterns are kinda preventing my sleeve___rest_of_key from entering P_LOCKED
I could just hook into SMODS.SAVE_UNLOCKS() but that also seems a tad hacky

[vague monolith]

The fusion jokers by itayfedder and lyman! Im trying to do my own fusions right now but im a little too new to modding and coding

I know they have a api for it, but im not a very great coder and I dont really understand what im doing lol

[frosty dock]

okay yeah it's probably within reason to change that

that's just mindlessly copied base game code

[tepid crow]

before you make anything, you're aware they're using a version of the modloader that will soon be outdated?

[frosty dock]

wdym soon

it already is

[tepid crow]

I mean, I'd argue 0.9.8 is the "last stable version" if that makes sense

[vague monolith]

Yeah, I know, but I also need to use that specific version since I play on my phone lol

[tepid crow]

mostly cuz it's the last one in releases tbf

[frosty dock]

I would argue it's less stable than current 1.0

[tepid crow]

fair enough lol

[tepid crow]

Alright, as long as you know your options. Did you look at their github code?

[frosty dock]

0.9.x were pretty much daily releases for a week lmao

[vague monolith]

I did, Im looking around and poking at it but im not the greatest with lua, and alot of it is wierd. Im just trying to figure out how to use the api to create a new mod alltogether

[tepid crow]

Yeah, it avoids some centers:
-booster packs
-enhancement modifiers
-c_base, soul, undiscovered_joker, undiscovered_tarot
Could do a blacklist on those instead of a whitelist on the rest?

[tepid crow]

have you actually made a basic mod yet?

[vague monolith]

trying, I thought doing the api would be easier 😭

[tepid crow]

their API doesn't make creating jokers any easier 😅

[mellow sable]

wait so what's the issue?

oh i think i see

i kinda left some of the stake stuff the same that probably needs to be overhauled because I assumed that you would still have a linear progression in the stake selection UI

this new UI doesn't do that, so it's causing things to break down and the unlock behavior should be completely refactored

[limpid flint]

and I think stakes should (somehow) have a specific order, rather than jumbled everytime

Or else it wouldn't be called "progression"

[mellow sable]

Ordering is already handled I think

[zealous glen]

But different mods can add different branches

[vague monolith]

Yeah but for now I just wanna use existing jokers to make fusion jokers yknow? Learning it step by step!

[mellow sable]

Yeah this is the part that isn’t handled, but only for unlocks

[zealous glen]

I have to imagine creating a new Joker is easier than a Fusion Joker

[vague monolith]

Yeah that’s what I’m learning now, still trying to figure out how to do both

[zealous glen]

Try Steamodded 1.0

[vague monolith]

I don’t think I will for now because I’m building these to play on mobile and the mobile version doesn’t properly support that

[crisp coral]

please don't talk about modding on mobile in this server

[vague monolith]

Oh, sorry

[limpid flint]

Luckily I am playing on windows

[vague monolith]

Realll, feel bad for the people who are trying to mod on r2modman lol

[wintry solar]

It also doesn’t handle stickers on decks very nicely at all

I’ve sort of cobbled together an unlock system

In that it checks for wins on the applied stakes, but I haven’t been able to get the stickers working properly, although that could just be because my test alternate stake path doesn’t have any stickers

[mellow sable]

Yeah I think that relies on the same system :/

[mellow sable]

Well you would also see tooltips…

[wintry solar]

Tooltips?

Oh do you mean unlock tooltips?

[mellow sable]

Like “Gold Sticker - Used this Joker to beat Gold Stake”

Or whatever

[wintry solar]

Oh I see

[young cloud]

@unkempt ridge lmk if this works when you have a bit

truly a bugfix of all time

[unkempt ridge]

It fucking worked.

[young cloud]

huge

if you care how it works i can add some comments

but my recommendation is pretend like nothing ever happened 💀

[unkempt ridge]

cheeky having it be checking the previous cards rank instead
thank you so bloody much for real ;-;

[young cloud]

yeah its a bit jank but it works

anytime

[gilded blaze]

stronger than wee joker yet is an uncommon

💀

[unkempt thicket]

how do you set up consumable booster packs correctly?

[dense pagoda]

getting started on making custom jokers, what is the canvas size for the sprites? aseprite puts it at 71x95px with a 1px transparent border, but i wanted to confirm

[crisp coral]

yup, 71x95 with 1px transparent border

[dense pagoda]

noice. ive never done digital art before but this'll be a fun project

[placid frigate]

ok so i just finshed making my mod for 0.9.8, how to I transfer it over to 1.0.0?

[limpid flint]

Seek Steamodded wiki

[placid frigate]

is it on the GitHub?

[limpid flint]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/02.-Migration-guide

[unkempt thicket]

isn't draw_hand what makes the deck draw to hand in booster packs? it doesn't appear to be working did I miss something?

[unkempt ridge]

Who needs balance when you have style
(has zeros style)

[glass scaffold]

What can cause my mod to not be seen?

(it's in the right folder, it has the ---Steamodded header)

[vague monolith]

Is your mod working?

[glass scaffold]

Well, Balatro can't even see it, so I guess no?

Here's all the code

[rough furnace]

What's the logs say?

[glass scaffold]

Duplicate Mod prefix joke used by JokersButArya, JokerDisplay

WHAT

Welp, I finally got it to work.

Doesn't mean that code is working.

[vague monolith]

what id give right now to understand anything im looking at

what do you mean error on line 10 i dont even understand what line 10 does

[wintry solar]

You’re missing a comma after your loc_txt. The reason it wasn’t loading is because you didn’t define a mod prefix in your header, and it defaults to the first 4 characters of your name, which Joker Display is already using

[wintry solar]

Can you show your code?

[glass scaffold]

Wow, I completely messed this up.

Thanks for spotting those.

[opal spade]

is there any quick way to check whether a smods object originates from vanilla or a mod?

[edgy reef]

Check if the object’s center has “mod” in it.

Although it doesn’t really work with cosmetic mods like Aura.

[opal spade]

i'll check if that'll work for what im doing, and also i dont mind not detecting cosmetic stuff

yup it works, thank you

[glass scaffold]

That fixed the registration and loading.

Now the name and desc are not showing up in game.

[wintry solar]

you need loc_vars too, hold on

loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
    return {}
end```

[glass scaffold]

Yeah...

[wintry solar]

huh

can I see the code again?

[wintry solar]

loc_txt = ...

you can likely remove the loc_vars then

[glass scaffold]

Ayyyy

now how to do that fancy text for the mult...

Anyone here know how that's done?

[frosty dock]

{X:mult,C:white} X#1# {} Mult

(the #1# is for using vars, which you should, but technically you can just put 2 there)

[wanton grail]

couldnt u also look off the other already existng jokers and d work from thrrere

as like a example almost

[regal wolf]

@languid mirage what was the mod that only worked with cryptid / modded consumables that stacked them?

[frosty dock]

incantation?

[hushed cradle]

is there a simple way of changing the saved message to say saved by another joker?

[glass scaffold]

Not sure if this helps, but maybe this'll give a hint

[hushed cradle]

all in my code already

thanks tho

[glass scaffold]

btw you have anything that checks for when a card of a certain suit is played?

[hallow forge]

look at Lusty Joker code

[wintry solar]

I imagine it's somewhere in the ui code

[hushed cradle]

ill go digging

[regal wolf]

yeah it is

[hushed cradle]

ay thank you

[regal wolf]

                    table.insert(left_text,                  
                    config.saved and 
                    {n=G.UIT.C, config={padding = 0.05, align = 'cm'}, nodes={
                        {n=G.UIT.R, config={align = 'cm'}, nodes={
                            {n=G.UIT.O, config={object = DynaText({string = {' '..localize('ph_mr_bones')..' '}, colours = {G.C.FILTER}, shadow = true, pop_in = 0, scale = 0.5*scale, silent = true})}}
                        }}
                    }

just replace localize('ph_mr_bones') with a string

although you will have to make a seperate config.x var bc

currently config.saved only ever means that you're saved by mrbones

[hushed cradle]

ah right

[glass scaffold]

I found loc_vars = {self.ability.extra.s_mult, localize(self.ability.extra.suit, 'suits_singular')}, but what in the world is all this meant to do?

[hallow forge]

local variables for the card desciption

[glass scaffold]

Oh

The text stuff is already good to go

Now I just have to find out how to make it actually work.

[glass scaffold]

So how do I make sure this only counts scored cards that are Hearts?

[frosty dock]

first name the function calculate

[glass scaffold]

Done

[frosty dock]

context.other_card:is_suit('Hearts') should be the check you want

[glass scaffold]

replace context.cardarea or add it as an additional check?

[maiden phoenix]

Iirc theres multiple context.individual, you'll have to add another check

[glass scaffold]

So that code above's not going to work?

(also, if you know how to double the mult, pls tell me)

[maiden phoenix]

It will, it will just trigger too many times

[glass scaffold]

So do I just rid the context.individual and problem solved?

[frosty dock]

yeah you also need the cardarea check

[frosty dock]

no

[maiden phoenix]

What does your Joker do?

[glass scaffold]

For every Heart suit card scored: Double mult

[maiden phoenix]

The mult to the left or a specific modular mult?

[glass scaffold]

The mult to the left

[maiden phoenix]

mult = mult * 2 should normally work ig?

I forgot if thats the exact var name

[frosty dock]

that doesn't display a message though

[maiden phoenix]

Could always create its own

[frosty dock]

just check some joker that does this

bloodstone, photograph, triboulet, whatever

[maiden phoenix]

I just realized the joker is just a boosted bloodstond

[glass scaffold]

WELL UHHH

[primal robin]

This patch is not working. Why?

[[patches]]
[patches.pattern]
target = "functions/UI_definitions.lua"
pattern = '''colour = challenge_unlocked and G.C.RED or G.C.GREY'''
position = "at"
payload = '''colour = G.C.GREEN'''
match_indent = true
overwrite = true

[glass scaffold]

Small issue:

• No indicator / shake when triggered
• Mult number to the left doesn't change

[maiden phoenix]

Just check bloodstone's code

[glass scaffold]

"Oh dear Neptune..."

[glass scaffold]

IT BROKE 18 MILLION (using [10, 9, 8, 7, 6] Straight Flush)

Nope, I gotta fix this

[languid mirage]

incantation, it works with most of the mods actually, and now has a "Vanilla" option, that only stacks negative consumables

[regal wolf]

found it

[nocturne garnet]

#1247938514667176027

i dont know how to make cards have effects using decks

but i did the first part

[frosty dock]

card.ability

[nocturne garnet]

replace self.ability with card.ability im p sure

[frosty dock]

also you still need the cardarea check back

else it tries to trigger on other things as well, e.g. cards held in hand

[glass scaffold]

Oh how Balatro modding treats me.

wait, what's Lua's AND operator?

[nocturne garnet]

why did you add a +

[glass scaffold]

I don't know how to chain conditions in Lua

[nocturne garnet]

and

its and

if context.other_card:is_suit("Hearts") and context.cardarea == G.play then

[frosty dock]

that's a new one haha

[glass scaffold]

I'm a baby in Lua

[frosty dock]

i don't know of any programming language that uses + for its logical and

[glass scaffold]

I saw it in some code snippet when searching

[frosty dock]

works for javascript maybe

[glass scaffold]

Nope, JS and Java are &&

[frosty dock]

yeah ik

but with type coersion technically + can be misused as a logical or

[primal robin]

In JS boolean + number is working fine

[glass scaffold]

I don't think I need that card = self, do I?

[frosty dock]

you named your card argument cards

change it to card and do card = card

instead of card = self

[glass scaffold]

Bloodstone gets a pass somehow.

[wintry solar]

because bloodstone isnt using the smods api

[glass scaffold]

touche.

[frosty dock]

- is just xor

[languid mirage]

oh didn't realise jen still didn't merge my PR, so vanilla option isn't there yet

[glass scaffold]

All the changes are made, and here we are.

[frosty dock]

you didn't put extra in your config

[glass scaffold]

so is that gonna be a seperate file or just another variable in the code?

[primal robin]

Not really. By using +/- as boolean operators you most likely messed up with order

[frosty dock]

SMODS.Joker {
  key = 'your_key',
  -- other stuff,
  config = { extra = 2 },
  calculate = function()...
}

[frosty dock]

look I'm not saying it's useful

I'm saying js is cursed

[primal robin]

I know, and that's why i like it

[glass scaffold]

Same error somehow

[primal robin]

self.config.extra

[frosty dock]

i didn't actually check the code smh

you can change card.ability.extra.Xmult to just card.ability.extra in this case

but that crash shouldn't be, maybe you didn't save the file?

[glass scaffold]

I've saved all the changes

[frosty dock]

can i see the full joker definition

[glass scaffold]

:O IT'S WORKING FLAWLESSLY

Winning code:

[frosty dock]

wait why is it legendary now

[glass scaffold]

As a semi-balancing measure

The cost got cranked up too.

[frosty dock]

legendaries always cost $20

not like you can buy them anyways

[glass scaffold]

Oh

Alright, noted

[wintry solar]

is there enough contrast between beaten, unlocked and locked?

or maybe I create a locked sprite

[crisp coral]

locked should be darker imho

[hushed cradle]

is bottom locked?

i think the fact that the chips are smiling at me is throwing me off

[hallow forge]

Locked should def be a sprite

[wintry solar]

locked are row 2, 4-8, row 3, 1-2 & 7-8

[hushed cradle]

ah right

yeah i think locked could do with a special sprite

[crisp coral]

making locked completely dark could also work

[hushed cradle]

that smiling chip is unsettling

[wintry solar]

someone pls make me a locked sprite

[frosty dock]

I'll try after lunch

[hushed cradle]

ill see what i can do

[wintry solar]

this also works I guess

[hushed cradle]

im now remembering why i dont do pixel art 💀

thoughts? 😭

[wintry solar]

It does the job

[hushed cradle]

thanks lol

[wintry solar]

I will plug it in after lunch

[hushed cradle]

in return could you maybe help me w this??

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.setting_blind and not card.getting_sliced and not context.blueprint and not card.debuff and not context.control_devil then
            if context.blind.boss then
                G.GAME.blind.chips = G.GAME.blind.chips  * (self.config.decrease / 100)
            else
                G.GAME.blind.chips = G.GAME.blind.chips + (G.GAME.blind.chips * (self.config.increase / 100))
            end
        end
        G.HUD_blind:recalculate()
    end,```

that doesnt seem to be recalculating the hud

im not really sure how im supposed to

i thought for sure thatd work

aha

mightve figured it out

[wintry solar]

Trying to adjust the required score?

[hushed cradle]

yeah i got it

G.GAME.blind.chip_text = number_format(G.GAME.blind.chips)
G.HUD_blind:get_UIE_by_ID('HUD_blind_count').UIBox:recalculate()

oops

i think my math is off tho

yeah im stupid

would it be too broken to have it compatible with

because boss blinds pretty small

but the other blinds will be so big in comparison

i guess you could skip tho

[wintry solar]

Two slots to do that might balance it a little

[hushed cradle]

thats true

[wintry solar]

What does your config look like btw?

[hushed cradle]

its not blueprint compatible

my what

is there a way to pass a mult_mod and chip_mult into the joker calc return thingy?

id like him to give a random amount of mult and chips

[frosty dock]

uh

[wintry solar]

You can pass both but it won’t do the messages properly

[frosty dock]

well first

[hushed cradle]

id rather he just do one and have the correct message then ig

[frosty dock]

if not card.debuff is unnecessary

[hushed cradle]

really?

thank god

[frosty dock]

yeah steamodded checks it for you

[hushed cradle]

awesome

[wintry solar]

You can throw your own messages though

[hushed cradle]

i never had a chance to test it w debuffed jokers

[hushed cradle]

oh yeah

[frosty dock]

and if context.cardarea == G.jokers and not (context.before or context.after) then can just be if context.joker_main then

[hushed cradle]

cool

thank you

[frosty dock]

for two separate messages, i guess you can use SMODS.eval_this, or use your own message for both

[hushed cradle]

i can just called the eval text directly right?

i think ill just do that then

i didnt know about smods.eval_this

[frosty dock]

just a wrapper for card_eval_status_text

[hushed cradle]

oh right

ill see if i can figure it out then

[frosty dock]

oops

[wintry solar]

That seems wrong

[hushed cradle]

am i able to pass Xmult_mod and mult_mod?

[frosty dock]

I think insert_pool becomes inefficient somehow?

[primal robin]

Badges for blinds when?

[frosty dock]

20k is taking 2-5 seconds it seems

bottleneck seems to be recalculating table length

t[#t+1] = vs. table.insert sure doesn't seem to make a difference

[hushed cradle]

i might be biased but i think it looks pretty good

[frosty dock]

i like it

[wintry solar]

yeah I think it looks great

[languid mirage]

it works

[limpid flint]

Looks good and works

[wintry solar]

did someone say tooltips?

[hallow forge]

No, but cool

[hushed cradle]

thats hella cool

i love how the stake chips like stack

when im putting colours into joker descriptions

by doing {C:colour}

idk how to not make that long sorry

can i put in any colour?

or is there somewhere i can find all the available colours?

[zealous glen]

The colours are in globals.lua but

the colours for {C:colour} are in the loc_colour function in functions/misc_functions.lua

[hushed cradle]

thank you

[zealous glen]

Corollary: you can hook loc_colour to define your own

[hushed cradle]

cool

do i even need to hook?

can i just add a colour to G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS?

[zealous glen]

I did it like this

local loc_colour_ref = loc_colour

function loc_colour(_c, default)
    if not G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS then
        loc_colour_ref(_c, default)
    elseif not G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS.vic_colours then
        G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS.vic_colours = true

        local new_colors = {
            vic_HighCard = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['High Card'],
            vic_Pair = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Pair'],
            vic_TwoPair = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Two Pair'],
            vic_3OAK = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Three of a Kind'],
            vic_Straight = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Straight'],
            vic_Flush = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Flush'],
            vic_FullHouse = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Full House'],
            vic_4OAK = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Four of a Kind'],
            vic_StraightFlush = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Straight Flush'],
            vic_5OAK = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Five of a Kind'],
            vic_FlushHouse = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Flush House'],
            vic_5OAFlush = G.C.VictinsCollection.POKER_HANDS['Five of a Flush'],

            vic_stone = G.C.VictinsCollection.ENHANCEMENTS.Stone,
        }

        for k, v in pairs(new_colors) do
        G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS[k] = v
        end
    end

    return loc_colour_ref(_c, default)
end

[zealous glen]

I mean that's what I do, but I did it inside a hook

excep for the animated colours which are in Game:update

[hushed cradle]

cheers

[frosty dock]

how's this for verbose logging

[hushed cradle]

im not sure what that word means

[languid mirage]

what's the point of logging atlas is injected if atlas name is not specified

at that point you might just send an end result

[frosty dock]

yeah this is for benchmarking

it'll only do it on trace level and if it's specificed

just the string formatting from all the individual logs slow everything down when there's lots of items

normally it'll just show the end result

rn we have nothing that's really slow to inject, if something like that gets added in the future we might want it enabled by default so ppl using it don't think the game froze

[languid mirage]

Coffee joker, it has the jitters

[lament fjord]

Scalene jonkler has a noticeable diagonal seam in the middle

[remote coral]

It’s folded

Creased

[maiden phoenix]

the freaky juice_up

[languid mirage]

the latest version looks more like the one on the gif, still not final tho I want to add some effect like darken the image and change the edges somehow

[primal robin]

God pls don't break all mods in new update

[languid mirage]

only 50%

[frosty dock]

it only needs to break one mod for disaster to strike

imagine if thunk got rid of the calculation tower tho

[edgy reef]

The game will be saved from all the lovely injections 🔥

[frosty dock]

🔥💀🔥

[edgy reef]

Especially these 3.

80-90 patches here from only a couple mods 😭

[frosty dock]

that's a normal amount of patches

[zealous glen]

thunk adds functions so people don’t have to access variables directly

[frosty dock]

aggressive scoping? guh

[edgy reef]

Wait yea I can just pull from Dim's modpack

[zealous glen]

247 patches Georg is an outlier and shouldn’t have been counted

[frosty dock]

imagine if thunk made the game accessible and I made black hole for nothing

[languid mirage]

why would he do that

he could be working on updates/fixes but instead he'll be spending time to make code look cleaner 😭

[crisp coral]

all that gets added is one comment that says stop posting about my ifelse tower

[edgy reef]

This is making me wonder if Thunk just adds a bunch of comments just to troll Steamodded injections.

[languid mirage]

thunk will obfuscate and inline all the code so it's not an ifelse tower but an endless ifelse line

[zealous glen]

Huh I didn’t know about that mod

Based aure

[languid mirage]

that's the ultimate way to break lovely patches

[zealous glen]

Thunk said they wanted to support modding 🤔

Thunk puts all of the game’s code in a single file that’s one line long

[languid mirage]

I think when that happens, he will probably go to modding community

[zealous glen]

Go where

[languid mirage]

here

[zealous glen]

Do what

[languid mirage]

well I'd assume communicate with modders about modding support, lol

how else would he know what modding support is needed

[nocturne garnet]

why wont this work raaghhh

[languid mirage]

of course he could completely ignore current modding, add his own API and whatever, but then you'll have another community split up

between steamodded and "official" modding

[nocturne garnet]

hell nah we have jokers with physics before gta 6...

[crisp coral]

are you doing blueprint for two jokers or something

[languid mirage]

I think with current state of modding, there isn't that much modding support needed anyways, maybe native lovely patching so antivirus doesnt cry

[zealous glen]

thunk goes to a fortune teller draws some tarots

[languid mirage]

sounds about right

[mellow sable]

no way is he gonna patch arbitrary code execution?

[nocturne garnet]

blueprints for unexistant jokers...

[languid mirage]

and brick all the existing save files

[crisp coral]

oh that's even worse

o7

[mellow sable]

99% chance Cryptid breaks in some way

With how many lovely patches there are

That are pattern patches, too

imagine calculation API gets completely refactored so localthunk can retrigger jokers

[edgy reef]

I'm more worried about Talisman than Cryptid tbh.

[mellow sable]

Most of those overrides are pretty internal, I don’t think it’ll suffer as much damage

[frosty dock]

would be dope but lovely is community-developed and not complete 👀

[mellow sable]

Plus ideally we can figure out how to replace the Lua DLL to remove the weird lua metatable limitations

I know someone was working on that but they’re stuck trying to modify assembly to get __eq to work

[crisp coral]

have your own lovely download that also bundles the updated lua dll

[frosty dock]

idk if we would really want a thunk version of lovely

[crisp coral]

or is the problem making the dll itself

[mellow sable]

Yeah

Marr-Ales-Fios was working on fixing the LuaJIT source code but the problematic part is in assembly

so i have this calculate function for a joker

when you destroy a heart card it increases the x mult by 0.25

for some reason its increasing twice for each card destroyed

not sure why and would appreciate any help

[frosty dock]

just fix the asm then

[crisp coral]

using hanged man also calls context.remove_playing_cards

[mellow sable]

easier said than done

[hushed cradle]

thank you

oh wait it doesn't

hold on

[hushed cradle]

oh

[frosty dock]

just trolling, ik

[hushed cradle]

not thank you then

[crisp coral]

err idk

[hushed cradle]

nws

its probably a stupid mistake on my part that ill figure out tomorrow or smth and be like how did i even do that

removing the hung man check seems to have worked

so i think you were right

power now works

Also you got me curious about what the Control Devil context is for 🤔

just so it doesnt scale twice as fast

or the control devil joker doesnt gain x mult

[zealous glen]

Trigger when?

[hushed cradle]

whenever the joker triggers

[zealous glen]

Also, if it just doubles triggers, then it should scale twice as fast

[zealous glen]

But it doesn’t say when it triggers

[hushed cradle]

i dont really want it to tho its kinda op already

[zealous glen]

Every vanilla Joker will scale twice as fast

[hushed cradle]

its whenever a joker triggers, the control devil joker triggers too and does the same thing

[hushed cradle]

thats a problem lol

[zealous glen]

So it should trigger that Joker twice

[hushed cradle]

at least i think

[zealous glen]

Don’t create arbitrary exceptions

[hushed cradle]

well that would be what i want it to do

but i didnt code it to do that

[zealous glen]

Either rework the effect or let it be

Keep in mind it will trigger modded Jokers

[hushed cradle]

ill show the code hold on

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        local jokers = {
            message = 'Bang!',
            card = card,
        }
        local ret = false
        for _, joker in pairs(G.jokers.cards) do
            if joker ~= card and joker.sell_cost < card.sell_cost then
                context.control_devil = true
                local joker_ret = Card.calculate_joker(joker, context)
                if joker_ret then
                    ret = true
                    if joker_ret.chips then
                        jokers.chips = (jokers.chips or 0) + joker_ret.chips
                    end
                    if joker_ret.mult then
                        jokers.mult = (jokers.mult or 0) + joker_ret.mult
                    end
                    if joker_ret.x_mult then
                        jokers.x_mult = (jokers.x_mult or 1) * joker_ret.x_mult
                    end
                    if joker_ret.h_mult then
                        jokers.h_mult = (jokers.h_mult or 0) + joker_ret.h_mult
                    end
                    if joker_ret.repetitions then
                        jokers.repetitions = (jokers.repetitions or 0) + joker_ret.repetitions
                    end
                    if joker_ret.dollars then
                        jokers.dollars = (jokers.dollars or 0) + joker_ret.dollars
                    end
                    if joker_ret.Xmult_mod then
                        jokers.Xmult_mod = (jokers.Xmult_mod or 1) * joker_ret.Xmult_mod
                    end
                    if joker_ret.mult_mod then

no this is what ive done

[atomic falcon]

yeah man heres your options

ffs

[zealous glen]

wh

[hushed cradle]

?

[crisp coral]

??

[languid mirage]

????

[zealous glen]

Actually, here’s a suggestion

Instead of a custom context, use Blueprint’s

And make the original Joker being copied use Blueprint’s context

That way it doesn’t scale anything twice

Because vanilla Jokers already check for Blueprint before scaling

[hushed cradle]

its not scaling anything twice

[zealous glen]

Doesn’t it?

Anyways,

I think if you use Blueprint as a reference that’s better because the compatibility isn’t arbitrary. Jokers don’t scale twice as fast because of Blueprint rules

[hushed cradle]

dont think so

[hushed cradle]

ben?

[atomic falcon]

yes

[hushed cradle]

yeah my wee is still small :(

so no double scaling

[zealous glen]

I wonder why. Does Wee Joker trigger twice?

[hushed cradle]

yeah

to clarify that is how i want it

same as how blueprint works

[crisp coral]

didn't cryptid have to do a lot of modifications to calculate_joker to have joker retriggers working

[zealous glen]

Skill issue

[hushed cradle]

yeah i looked through cryptid and it gave me a headache

my way round it is a bit sketchy

[zealous glen]

See, I’m suggesting you keep it that way, but use context.blueprint. But if it already works, then I’m trying to understand how

Also

[atomic falcon]

Ben

[zealous glen]

When you check joker ~= card

Instead check the key

[crisp coral]

@atomic falcon can you not interrupt us

[zealous glen]

To avoid issues with multiple Control Devils

[atomic falcon]

@crisp coral

[hushed cradle]

thats smth i gotta test actually

[hushed cradle]

they way im doing it atm is basically just collecting all the effects from jokers whenver calculate joker is called, and then having my joker do all of those effects

[hushed cradle]

it only triggers the effects of jokers worth less so there shouldnt be any issues with multiple

[zealous glen]

I mean two of them could have different prices

[frosty dock]

gift card:

editions:

[hushed cradle]

yeah but its not gonna break

[atomic falcon]

i dont think context.blueprint gotta be used here

[hushed cradle]

its not gonna get super out of hand like infinite loop

[zealous glen]

I’m not saying it has to, but it could

[frosty dock]

yeah it won't infloop

[zealous glen]

I think it’s clever

[hushed cradle]

yeah thats the main thing

[hushed cradle]

ty

[zealous glen]

I was talking about my own suggestion

[zealous glen]

It could loop infinitely if a repeat effect increased the cost of a different Control Devil

Like maybe if you ordered Control Devils and Gift Cards correctly

[atomic falcon]

true fact^

[zealous glen]

But I think you’d like like 3 Gift Cards?

Maybe more

[atomic falcon]

😹

[hushed cradle]

it wont trigger gift card effects

[atomic falcon]

wouldnt you have to gift card before you buy the special joker

[crisp coral]

i don't think that'd infinitely loop but if need be just add a check

[atomic falcon]

or special joker would increase in value at the same rate

[hushed cradle]

i did some testing with gift card

had 4 copies with different values

it scores loads but its not game breaking

[zealous glen]

4 copies of what

[hushed cradle]

the control devil joker

[zealous glen]

I think something like Control, Gift, Gift, Control, Gift, Gift could infinite loop

[hushed cradle]

^

[zealous glen]

I was confused by what you said since you tested it

[zealous glen]

@mellow sable by the way, what did you do to get Joker retriggers working? I don’t want to require Cryptid for just a single feature

Oops did I ping? :<

[atomic falcon]

deserved

[hushed cradle]

only thing that could cause an infinite loop i think is something like canvas from cryptid

[crisp coral]

didn't ping

[hushed cradle]

but thats funny anyway

[crisp coral]

lmao canvas moment

[mellow sable]

Override every calculation call to loop for retriggers

It’s a lot and I want to refactor it and add to Steamodded at some point

[crisp coral]

peak

[hushed cradle]

i looked through cryptid joker retriggering and i couldnt make sense of any of it lol

[crisp coral]

that sounds so fragile lmao

[mellow sable]

My ideas for the refactor were basically:

• You can pass a callback function to calculate_joker to do things with the result, instead of hardcoding those things it has to do
• You can return a second value to indicate the joker did a calculation without returning anything

[hushed cradle]

tell me why i cant just do

for k, v in pairs(deez) do
  return v.nuts
end```

why isnt it lua

[mellow sable]

lol

[unkempt ridge]

wouldnt that be nuts[v]

[mellow sable]

deez[k] = v

[mellow sable]

no way am I actually doing this?

[hushed cradle]

the names are irrelevant, you should be able to return things like that

[atomic falcon]

generator

[hushed cradle]

i will literally kiss you

i have to see how I got this to work

btw steamodded got another bit of loading perf

[hushed cradle]

if i give you a tenner will you code this for me?

[frosty dock]

doesn't matter much for the amount of objects we're dealing with, but I got it to the point where I can load more centers within a second than Luajit's memory restriction will let me

If nekojoe gives you a tenner can you steal it and work for me instead

For jker in the hand {

    end.it_all

[hushed cradle]

mods please pin

[mellow sable]

if you just change it to "retrigger all jokers" this will be easy with retrigger api

[hushed cradle]

yeah thats kinda what i wanted it to do

but im too dumb

[zealous glen]

I think it’s more interesting if it’s cheaper Jokers

[unkempt ridge]

Retrigger all jokers and check if triggered joker has a sell value <= condevil

Actually would it just be less than or less than or equal

[atomic falcon]

my bad ill fixc thart

[zealous glen]

Make it so retriggers can be conditional per Joker please

[hushed cradle]

gomtry your code is wrong

[zealous glen]

I think that’s more applicable

[atomic falcon]

lau
For each and every fucking jker in the hand {
  the_amount_of_money_worth = jokr.get_value()
  if the_amount_of_money_worth < controldevil.price then uhh
    joke.retigger()
  else
    end.it_all

[zealous glen]

Also that’s how card retriggers work

[hushed cradle]

has to be < than

otherwise infinite loops

[mellow sable]

the main calculate loop is probably going to be the same as I have it, which checks per joker

[hushed cradle]

i have code for this joker already

[mellow sable]

local cj = Card.calculate_joker
function Card:calculate_joker(context, callback)
    local ret, triggered = cj(self, context)
    --Make every Joker return a value when triggered
    --Check for retrggering jokers
    if (ret or triggered) and not context.retrigger_joker and not context.retrigger_joker_check then
        if type(ret) ~= 'table' then ret = {joker_repetitions = {0}} end
        ret.joker_repetitions = {0}
        for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
            local check = G.jokers.cards[i]:calculate_joker{retrigger_joker_check = true, other_card = self}
            if type(check) == 'table' then 
                ret.joker_repetitions[i] = check and check.repetitions and check or 0
            else
                ret.joker_repetitions[i] = 0
            end
            if G.jokers.cards[i] == self and self.edition and self.edition.retriggers then
                local old_repetitions = ret.joker_repetitions[i] ~= 0 and ret.joker_repetitions[i].repetitions or 0
                --[[local check = calculate_blurred(self)
                if check and check.repetitions then
                    check.repetitions = check.repetitions + old_repetitions
                    ret.joker_repetitions[i] = check
                end--]] --figure out something for this later
            end

        end
    end
    if callback and type(callback) == 'function' then callback(ret) end
    return ret
end

this is what I have right now

[hushed cradle]

can i have that?

[atomic falcon]

you must use the for each and every fucking keywords

[zealous glen]

Mobile formatting makes this hard to read. So you can set the number of repetitions per Joker?

[hushed cradle]

this is my shoddy attempt at making the joker appear as if it kinda retriggers other jokerts lol

somone @ thunk my code is genus

[mellow sable]

you mean like, 1 repetition from Joker A, 2 from Joker B, etc.

yes

[zealous glen]

No, I mean like Joker A repeats 1 time, Joker B repeats 2 times, etc.

[mellow sable]

yes

this is already possible with canvas/boredom on old API

i remember this

i read through all of it earlier

i think it caused permanent damage to my brain, its too small

usually im pretty good at stealing other peoples code but this was unfathomable

[unkempt ridge]

So this gets the repetitions of the jokers when ending shop? Or are we brainle5

[mellow sable]

yes

but i had to do this for EVERY CONTEXT

and now hopefully I don't

[unkempt ridge]

Simple just do context ~= nil :^)

[mellow sable]

ok so I think this is good, now I have to refactor everything to use callbacks

[maiden phoenix]

Could this be used (or modified) to improve blueprint behaviour? (like multicard blueprint)

[mellow sable]

yeah probably

you could probably call calculate_joker directly

except the UI might be janky

[atomic falcon]

To calculate the periodic sequence present in your profile picture, the following equation would be used:
a(n) = 7+5⌊nMOD3/2⌋+10(⌊nMOD3​/1.5⌋ − ⌊nMOD3​/2⌋)

[maiden phoenix]

Yea that's the issue, the eval status would be wrong

@hushed cradle take a look at this https://github.com/MathIsFun0/Cryptid/tree/better-retrigger

i only patched joker_main to use the new callback system so far but it should work decently

also separated to its own file so it can be easily merged with Steamodded when I’m done

i doubt you would ever need proper help but if you gotta do smth thats long and tedious then just drop me a dm

[mellow sable]

if I need to work on overhauling some UI I might have to hit you up

Because to me that is still mostly a mystery

[zealous glen]

UIAPI

[hushed cradle]

im gonna be honest i dont fully understand it either, but i somehow manage to make it work lol

actually i say that but i understand it a decent bit i think

[hushed cradle]

feel free

[mellow sable]

if BalaUI adds a visual UI editor we would all be set

[zealous glen]

The modding API we need but not the one we want

[zealous glen]

Also what is that

[wintry solar]

I have no idea how a UI editor would work

[hushed cradle]

does anyone else have a bug where wheel says 11 out of 7 cards are flipped?

or 22 with oops

[zealous glen]

#1209564621644505158

[hushed cradle]

what am i supposed to be looking at??

[zealous glen]

What did you just ask

[hushed cradle]

about wheel

i didnt see anything about it in the chat tho lemme look again

[zealous glen]

It’s like the last message

[hushed cradle]

oh right it took me way far back in the chat

[mellow sable]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1264841732730916974

[hushed cradle]

is that just a known bug then?

[zealous glen]

I thought it had been fixed

[hushed cradle]

ive no idea

redownloaded steamodded yesterday

[hushed cradle]

i dont know what im doing lol

[mellow sable]

Look at how something like canvas or boredom is implemented

[hushed cradle]

i am trying

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.other_joker then--context.retrigger_joker_check and not context.retrigger_joker then
            print('deez')
            print(tostring(card.sell_cost))
            print(tostring(context.other_joker.ability.name))
            if card ~= context.other_joker and card.sell_cost > context.other_joker.sell_cost then
                return {
                    message = localize('k_again_ex'),
                    repetitions = card.config.extra,
                    card = context.other_joker
                }
            end
        end
    end,```

so

jokers arent my strong point

[zealous glen]

What are you trying to do

[hushed cradle]

i should probably read more thoroughly

idek at this point

oh card should be card

[wintry solar]

is there a way for sendDebugMessage etc. to auto populate the second variable with the mod prefix?

[nocturne garnet]

how does Cryptid's Misprint and Edition decks affect all cards?

[mellow sable]

I hook all of the functions that create cards

if you search for cry_misprintize in the cryptid code you can see where this is being done

the biggest use is in create_card but there are more

[zealous glen]

Blind idea:

The Octopus
You have 8 hands
and it has X8 Base size

That seems… too hard 🤔

[nocturne garnet]

The Hand:
X1 Base Blind requirement
+3 hands, +1X Base Blind requirement per total number of hands
(applies after jokers)

Eremel keeps winning

[wintry solar]

slowly making the game's UI functional step by step

[frosty dock]

fr

[wintry solar]

oh I was thinking too, should the tab colours in mod settings be the same as the badge colour?

[frosty dock]

hm that's a neat detail

[wintry solar]

I first thought the entire button to open that menu, but that might be a little garish

but the tabs would look neat

[mellow sable]

i had to learn how to regex patch for retrigger api

but it's so satisfying now

[frosty dock]

regex is so powerful when you know how to use it

[mellow sable]

i'm not even close to using its full potential

[wintry solar]

^

[mellow sable]

all I'm doing is basically multiline pattern patches with it

[wintry solar]

there are some patches I look at and am just mind boggled as to how they work

[mellow sable]

and then one or two I have that just check for a variable number of spaces because of janky syntax

i still have so much left to port

but this went down from 269 lines to 105

and a lot of the later ones should need no patching with how I set the API up

[frosty dock]

btw as effective as regex patches are, they're also inefficient

[mellow sable]

things like this don't need any modifications

[zealous glen]

how so

[mellow sable]

basically the retrigger logic is done within the calculate_joker function fully now

before calculate_joker would only run an extra check to count how many times the joker should be retriggered

but because the callback function tells it what else to do with those retriggers, it now also calculates the retriggers within calculate_joker

[zealous glen]

Ooh

[young cloud]

anyone aware of a way to add an event to E_MANAGER that triggers on the next round?

I made a tarot that modifies hand count, it's only issue is if it's used during a shop or blind selection the hand count resets when a blind is selected

was looking into creating an invisible tag, but couldn't find a way to make that work either

[frosty dock]

the way codex does things is it adds a flag and reads that out on round end

[zealous glen]

why don't you set a variable in the Joker and give it a start of round trigger

Oh wait you said Tarot

[young cloud]

I would but its a tarot

[zealous glen]

There's a Tag with a similar effect

[frosty dock]

i guess an event might work, but the event system is super jank

juggle tag might be a good reference?

[young cloud]

yeah, i was trying to make something similar to the +3 hand tag but it would have to be invisible

[zealous glen]

Make it give the Juggle Tag or a new Tag or similar

why

Make it visible

[young cloud]

the way I have it working rn is it calls ease_discard()

[zealous glen]

more synergy

[young cloud]

which works great, but discard and hand counts reset at the beginning of a round

was really just looking to see if anyone had another idea, but yeah ill look more into the tag

ngl im feeling way too lazy to do that rn lmao

[frosty dock]

I think something like this might work? not sure though since events are scuffed

local rounds = G.GAME.rounds
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
  blocking = false,
  func = function()
    if --[[condition]] G.GAME.rounds > rounds then
      your_code()
      return true
    end
    -- if the condition isn't met, this is run again next frame
    -- that's inefficient and probably unwanted since a function exists
    -- that fires when the round ends, but it can work
  end
})

[zealous glen]

I mean you could add a new global variable but I think I like the tag more

[zealous glen]

if this doesn't work you could wrap the event in a function and have an else that calls the function and return true

[young cloud]

this could work, i haven't tried checking for the condition within func

ill try implementing it and check back

[mellow sable]

crazy syntax

[frosty dock]

why did you even need that

was it meant to match multiple instances with different spacing?

[mellow sable]

future-proofing

because the spacing is bad

with that, it's my last lovely patch for retrigger api

but i have a question

[frosty dock]

i may have an answer

[mellow sable]

some vanilla jokers aren't going to play nicely, should I solve that by taking ownership or with lovely patches

i think either is better than what I had before

[frosty dock]

depends on how not nicely they're playing

[mellow sable]

i'd need like 20-30 patches that are basically return nil, true

[frosty dock]

yeah definitely use lovely patches for that

could potentially even save space by making them the same patch

[wintry solar]

oh powerful crashomancer, go and break galdur all night whilst I sleep

[frosty dock]

oh i shall sleep as well, it's past 2am over here

[wintry solar]

but you're so efficient at finding crashes

[mellow sable]

i will stay up coding this api

(it's well before 2am here don't worry)

this will be fun

[frosty dock]

Caino my beloved

[mellow sable]

it's still called that internally 🤷‍♂️

WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST DO

oh I checked too little in my patch

[frosty dock]

Baltro

[stray warren]

When does set_ability get called? This code doesn't work and mult is always 0 (the default value I set)

[stray warren]

Ok, I guess my question is how can I make the card default to being triple the card's sell value when it's first spawned? I can't access that value in the extra section I don't believe

[crisp coral]

set cost is called after set ability

[stray warren]

Ok, so that won't work. Unless I somehow hook into set_cost for this joker only

[shell tangle]

If I wanted to have an option cycle in mod config, is the opt_callback required in order to save a change, or am I missing something?

[young cloud]

finally got that discard function working

here's how I ended up doing it if you're interested

[mellow sable]

almost done with this garbage regex patching hell

this is a funny one

[young cloud]

props man

anything to do with regex is miserable by nature lmao

hold on, the hell is that return statement 💀

[mellow sable]

i learned it today... for this

so many patches in card.lua (I added like 30 new ones)

[young cloud]

rip

eyyy sweet

[mellow sable]

it's finally done

[young cloud]

once i finish this modpack im down to work on the loader if you need the help

[mellow sable]

now all I have to do is test it out

[young cloud]

nice

[mellow sable]

i don't rly need help rn

I'm refactoring retrigger API so I can move it from Cryptid to Steamodded soon

[young cloud]

aight bet

[mellow sable]

anyway I'm just gonna spawn canvas and see what happens

[young cloud]

lol gl 🤞

[celest timber]

is there documentation on how to make a mod or how do i start?

[red flower]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started

[celest timber]

tysm

[shell tangle]

Also going to throw out this somewhat WIP example Joker mod.

[celest timber]

oh thats awesome

time to read!

[young cloud]

https://github.com/nicholassam6425/balatro-mods/wiki/Contexts I've found this page very helpful as well if you end up dealing with contexts

[celest timber]

where do i find this pages? cuz i kept looking on google and couldnt find much

[young cloud]

which pages?

[celest timber]

like the getting started one, or this one u just send

[young cloud]

most of the useful docs I've found have been through this server

just search for your topic in the 'modding-dev' channel and someone's probably talked about it

[celest timber]

ok then, tysm!

[shell tangle]

Going to recommend this version for both of you as well. #1247703015222149120 message

oh sweet, thx

[golden lake]

idea: baltro as a mod that removes all aces and ace-related jokers

scholar is dead

superposition is dead

[shell moat]

How would I use the ante_scaling modifier used for the plasma deck as a modifier in a challenge? I know that it's limited to 1, 2, and 3, but that's fine for my purposes

[mellow sable]

1,2,3 isn’t the plasma one

[shell moat]

Ah okay, I was going off a note in the code for 5 Legendary Challenges

Either way, my question still stands - how do I change ante scaling in a challenge, preferably without custom coding it

[shell tangle]

Bumping this question up.

[crisp coral]

don't think so

because I don't remember what opt_callback is

[shell tangle]

Basically just allows you to call a function that's located in G.FUNCS.

Here's the current code I have for the option cycle,

create_option_cycle{colour = G.C.SO_2.Diamonds, scale = 1, w = 0, shadow = true, options = {'Test 1', 'Test 2', 'Test 3'}, current_option = config.Option_Cycle, ref_table = config, ref_value = 'Option_Cycle'}

Main thing is just that it'd be a hassle to make a custom G.FUNCS function for every single one, but, changing this as is doesn't seem to save any information.

[static juniper]

This is probably a really dumb question, but I'm just starting out here. In what folder do you have to put a mod in order for it to... work?

I see the example mods in the example_mods folder, but where do I put them to actually run them?

[shell moat]

Once you've installed your mod loader of choice, you put lua files (or mod folders) in %Appdata%/Balatro/Mods (you may need to make the mods folder)

[static juniper]

Alright, thanks!

Do I have to relaunch the game to load them?

[shell moat]

I'm pretty sure you do, yeah

[placid frigate]

is there a seleton code for adding a joker with steamodded 1.0.0?

[static juniper]

So glad I read upwards to find this, time to do some studying! (Thanks for making this!)

[nocturne garnet]

honestly easier than what i expected

[night pagoda]

Do you know that every sprite in Balatro has an invisible yet COLORED border, and that's why every sprite has a transparent 1-pixel border around them?

[languid mirage]

I don't think it is the (main) reason for 1 pixel border tbh, border makes more sense for shaders

[rain imp]

The reason is probably the shader that wobbles the cards, since when the pixel gap is absent the sprite of a card starts to peek throgh the closest 4 sprites in the canvas

Besides being a common practive in spritesheets lol

[languid mirage]

not true actually

cards wobbling is a vertex shader

which allows you to go far beyond 1 pixel gap

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1259119745953828904/1269015582779375686/08-02_22-34-08.mp4?ex=66b4751c&is=66b3239c&hm=1c8a475e34e23ed9641d4ddcb8471862e28a87ee4923c068d5f2a770aaa2ab01&
far beyond

[maiden phoenix]

Could almost make it a paper plane

[frosty dock]

fuck no

[rain imp]

No it is. See that tiny line on the border of an orange and purple card? That's the overlap I mentioned. Though, sure, it isn't caused by the shader, it enhances its size nonetheless. That's more like a sprite cropping issue though

[shell timber]

it'd probably bleed due to rounding errors etc.

[night pagoda]

I see a stray pixel 👀

not a stray pixel but rather a misplaced one*

[rain imp]

I see a half of a spade broken

[night pagoda]

yup, that's what I was reffering to

[rain imp]

So, gotta fix that

[languid mirage]

you're talking about smoothing

[rain imp]

On the topic of that, what programs do you use for your sprites? Aseprite annoys me greatly

[languid mirage]

which as far as I understand is actually a shader

but the cards floating effect does not require a pixel border, you're just confusing different things

[rain imp]

I do

[languid mirage]

well, not exactly a shader, but a scaling algorithm, and it is a native love2d thing

[hushed cradle]

local ret = context.other_joker:calculate_joker(context)
                print(tostring(ret))```

this is printing nil even tho context.other_joker is def a thing

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.other_joker then
            if context.other_joker ~= card and context.other_joker.sell_cost < card.sell_cost then--context.retrigger_joker_check and not context.retrigger_joker and context.other_card ~= self then\
                local ret = context.other_joker:calculate_joker(context)
                print(tostring(ret))
                if ret then
                    ret.message = localize('k_again_ex')
                    ret.card = other_joker
                end
                return ret
            end
        end
    end,```

ignore the other joker

its because i removed some code that didnt work

im just confused why its returning nil when calculating the context of the other joker

oh

im so stupid

i swear i always have these questions and the second i ask about them i realise how dumb i am

[shell tangle]

I don't like UI.

[wintry solar]

now everyone must suffer... like i have...

            if context.other_card.sell_cost < card.sell_cost then
                return {
                    message = localize('k_again_ex'),
                    repetitions = self.config.extra,
                    card = card

            else
                return nil, true

[mellow sable]

You shouldn’t be returning anything in the else statement because the check doesn’t need to be retriggered

[shell tangle]

Seriously, though, I just want checkboxes on the left, lablels on the right, under that, cycles with text elements that can show tooltips on highlight. This is the code for this mildly updated blue section, and I have no idea where I'm going wrong.
