if it's an object of a different type, it should all be fine, just note that the subordinate object type needs to be created after the caller
crisp elbow
Could this be because of the PNG file not being an 8BitDeck one? That shouldn't matter 🤔, it's just the suit in a sprite sheet
frosty dock
else the class has already being injected by the time the new object is created

cedar flame
thanks :D
frosty dock
looks about normal, you don't have a loc_txt. I assume you don't have a localization file either?
frosty dock
Object A creates an Object B, which creates an Object A, which…
this won't infloop
assume A is injected before B, then A creates B while all A's are being injected, then during injection of B's, B creates another A that never gets injected
crisp elbow
Lemme double check (this is on someone's else's repo I just wanna make sure the actual setup is good)
and probably add it to the loc_txt
wintry solar
is the order just the order they are in the file?
zealous glen
assume A is injected before B, then A creates B while all A's are being injected...
I see, but then sometimes creating B inside A wouldn’t work, because the type of B has already been created, no?

generally speaking the order in which extend is called, be it in the same file or not

it's injection order that matters
if A injects before B, then A can create B's during injection because B's aren't yet injected. But not the other way around

That doesn’t clarify my question
frosty dock
Atlas appears to be injected after my new object
that'd mean it works alright for your object creating an atlas?
wintry solar
yeah
crisp elbow
frosty dock
That doesn’t clarify my question
then i don't get you
it doesn't matter if the type of B has been created, in fact you can't create a B if its type doesn't exist yet
hushed cradle
Could this be because of the PNG file not being an 8BitDeck one? That shouldn't ...
oh you need some stuff for the loc txt
1 sec
return {
['misc'] = {
['suits_plural'] = {
['cere_Leaves'] = 'Leaves',
['cere_Crowns'] = 'Crowns',
['cere_Coins'] = 'Coins',
},
['suits_singular'] = {
['cere_Leaves'] = 'Leaf',
['cere_Crowns'] = 'Crown',
['cere_Coins'] = 'Coin',
},
}
}```smth like that in the loc txt file
cedar flame
huh, weird that this fixes it for hand sorting but not the deck preview since they both use get_nominal!
frosty dock
oh
wintry solar
oh wait no it doesnt
frosty dock
deck preview uses registration order
frosty dock
specifically this
cedar flame
yeah i was looking at that bit... no way to really modify the object buffer order easily i assume
zealous glen
then i don't get you
I’m not talking about creating a new type, I’m talking about creating an instance of a type
cedar flame
since SMODS itself registers the suits in vanilla order
frosty dock
obj_buffer receives keys at the end whenever objects are created
you could just manipulate that table
cedar flame
that feels ugly, but maybe it's the only way haha
frosty dock
I’m not talking about creating a new type, I’m talking about creating an instanc...
I still don't know what you mean
zealous glen
I still don't know what you mean
You start creating object A, which creates object B, which creates object C, etc.
frosty dock
clearly when creating an instance of a type, the type has to already exist
zealous glen
You don’t even need different types actually
You could try to create the same type of object
crisp elbow
The only other problem I'm having now is the texture just not showing up 🤔
frosty dock
creating an object of the same type definitely has potential to infloop if that's what you're saying. I'm not sure how exactly this works in lua, but I presume the for loop will catch the new elements
crisp elbow
it's named correctly in my files and I think it should be called accordingly with atlas pos
zealous glen
did you use the correct infix key
frosty dock
actually it will definitely, given it just goes through numerically until it finds a nil
zealous glen
Aka prefix
If you didn’t set a custom one, it’s the first four letters of your mod’s name
crisp elbow
Tried doing that with the hc and lc atlas, same result of it just showing hearts
lc_atlas = 'fam_webs'```
(fam is the prefix in this case)i tried it with and without
frosty dock
in the constructor, the prefix is out of place
it's not needed there
actually this might be a case of the few select patches that the update broke
crisp elbow
🤔 potentially
frosty dock
actually yeah that was about front sprites now wasn't it
crisp elbow
so it's not gonna work till a smod patch is out, good to know
frosty dock
working on it now
edgy reef
Kinda suprised so little broke.
Basically just SMODS.Sticker application and front atlases
ig it is a cosmetic update so not much was added

cedar flame
got the suit order fixed!! thanks again for the help :D
wintry solar
turns out I wasn't injecting an atlas and my print message was wrong 🎉
is there a way to manually inject it?
wintry solar
I get an assert failure because it can't find the mod path, I guess because the current mod isn't my mod anymore?
frosty dock
oh right
wintry solar
I mean, I can just have the atlas seperate, it's not a big issue
frosty dock
in that case you could just use SMODS.Atlas.inject() and pass in the object to that without creating an object of this type
as in just give it a raw table
anyways there's your fixes for 1.0.1g
crisp elbow
lemme know when it hopefully gets pushed for a fix 
and if I need to change any other code
frosty dock

Which files are modified with the new update
crisp elbow
How would I be able to try and have the new suits I added not appear in the initial deck? I see that Bunco did it through essentially creating a new function, is that the only way it's possible?

nope; this straight up crashes

it's Other, not Booster
plain wyvern
okay I'm going to sleep tomorrow I'll try and implement full suit texture packs
wintry solar
@zealous glen @shell tangle made a start, this is the entire defintion rn
AltTexture({
key = 'test',
type = 'Joker',
path = 'hd_jokers.png',
loc_txt = {
name = 'HD Jokers Concept'
}
})
oops sorry I missed this, it's not really a new function it's just in_pool controlling that. You just do return false whenever you don't want it to appear and return true if the suit should appear anywhere iirc
night pagoda
I think this should do the trick:
in_pool = function(self, args)
if your_thing_happens then
return true
else
return false
end
end
(in this case you can just return your_thing_happens I guess)

My mods aren't existing and what is this error?
if you disabled lovely, that means your run save still has modded things. You would have to remove save.jkr from the active profile
crisp elbow
Yeah that's talisman
I think
Talisman makes your save unusable on vanilla Balatro because it saves your high score as it's bignum / omeganum chicanery

I'm currently making a 'sandbox' challenge generator thing that is a python gui and generates a challenge.lua file with the specific parameters selected and you'd just save it to a folder in your mods folder etc. I only just thought about joining the discord and checking, but is there something like this already and I've wasted my time or is this something actually useful and desirable? I'm having it do jokers, if they're eternal or not, their enchantment (ie, poly, negative etc), cards in the deck (suit, number, enchant, seal etc), consumables and vouchers. So yeah, is there something like this already or shall I keep going?
Because yeah, this is what I have currently, it will auto produce jokers, cards and consumables in the correct format, I just need to add in vouchers which I will probably do with just checkboxes. But the big work is then making a reference library and list of all the names and their code counterparts for generation etc and also all the other file stuff and formatting in it. That's just very time consuming and if something like this generator already exists then I don't really want to put the effort in doing all that.
But if it's not already been done, I can have up on github this ready to be shared and tested/used later today/tomorrow. Future plans being able to easily input things like challenge name, author, game conditions/modifiers etc so it can be used to generate full challenges to be shared.

thank you
mellow sable
“Implements an unused deck hidden in the game's textures”
We have Golden Needle at home:
mental nacelle
im making a mod with a friend (only problem is we have a very small amount of Lua knowledge) so it's taking a while to get used to
mellow sable
Yeah, unfortunately there definitely is a learning curve
My best advice is to look at mods or vanilla things that have done similar to what you want, and base your items on that
mental nacelle
yeah, we've been looking through ModdedVanilla for it, i actually tried to get a deck going with Cryptid code earlier
it did not work
mellow sable
Cryptid uses its own system for registering items so that changes things a bit
Basically instead of:
SMODS.Back{
code here
}
we use
local deck_name = {
object_type = 'Back',
code here
}

Are you using p_centres or p_center_pools?

Ah, I should be using center_pools

Centers is a table of keys and objects, pools is just the objects but split into sub tables

What’s your code looking like?
mental nacelle
currently this (i was trying the config version with Abstract)
wintry solar
it doesn't look like backs support joker keys like that, you'll need an apply function
mental nacelle
my programming might be a bit silly because i started in Lua (with this mod) yesterday
wintry solar
nothing wrong with your programming, you're just trying to do something that isn't possible the way you're doing it
wintry solar
I think that will be fine if it's in an event like the consumable one in back.lua is
languid mirage
btw you don't need to use {} at the end
It's not like HTML tag
it just means reset formatting
mental nacelle

like this?
mental nacelle
oh ok
wintry solar
apply = function(self)
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
func = function()
for k, v in ipairs(self.effect.config.consumables) do
local card = create_card('Tarot', G.consumeables, nil, nil, nil, nil, v, 'deck')
card:add_to_deck()
G.consumeables:emplace(card)
end
return true
end
}))
end
code is scuffed but the format is correct here
mental nacelle
ok
regal wolf
Yeah you only need to add {} if you have text afterwards you want to have the default text field formatting for
mental nacelle
should i have another function inside the event or not?
wintry solar
yes, events need a function
mental nacelle
hoping this works
wintry solar
return true after your materialize line
mental nacelle
ok
i tried to start a run with the deck, the game crashed
center is nil
should center be set at this point?
wintry solar
can you send the crash?
mental nacelle
yea

the header looks fine
this key is different to the one you had before, you had bogdonoff

So I'm trying to make a voucher that makes it so Booster Packs contain 1.5x more cards. This is the code I have now.
for k, v in pairs(G.P_CENTER_POOLS["Booster"]) do
v.config.extra = floor(v.config.extra * self.config.extra.mult)
end
end,```Problems:
1. The voucher does not come into effect immediately, only in the shop _after_ the voucher is purchased.
2. This voucher does not reset after a run. It continues to be in effect during every run until you reload the game.
3. Speaking of reloading the game, doing that will stop the voucher from working properly.
Anyone have a good solution to these problems?I'm possibly going to have the challenge generator done in about an hour. Would anyone be up for helping me test it to see if I've missed anything?

coarse nest
Nobody has done any mods where they've added extra card numbers right? Like things above J Q K A etc. Just checking as I'm trying to code my builder as mod friendly as possible with easy additions where possible. Add a new joker in? Just add it to the dictionary and you can use it in it etc.
frosty dock
steamodded has an API for ranks
not entirely sure if any mods that use it have ever been fully released though
crisp elbow
I think the only one that's tried it is Everdeck
and that was the only one that ever got like anywhere
coarse nest
If it's got API for ranks I may as well toss in a library then. Will also do it for suits.
crisp elbow
it did get dropped because the guy never paid for Balatro
I think
he modded it without fully testing all of their stuff and then dropped the project
frosty dock
I'm guessing there is nothing already and I should just keep cracking on?
I guess this might sort of have its place, I just don't feel like it worth the effort for a layer of abstraction where not that much coding knowledge is required to construct a challenge in the first place. I like the idea, though I could imagine an in-game editor like in #1211808102999924746 could suit it well
that sort of format would also make mod support easier given you could basically only have text inputs for arbitrary modded jokers/vouchers/consumables or whatever
coarse nest
I dislike how phallic my code looks
frosty dock
Lmao
frosty dock
pretty sure 10 should be T there
crisp elbow
I hate that it wasn't ever updated

I've made a deck or two in lua but man I just wanna pick up and go
coarse nest
Ahh is 10 coded to T? Thanks for pointing it out
crisp elbow
fair
Stuff like the enhanced decks from Cryptid definitely need code
🙂
or the suit only decks with no boss blind appearing
like the club deck where the club doesn't appear
coarse nest
I mean, I am making a deck building program
This is an earlier revision since I can't launch it currently with the dictionary changes etc
crisp elbow
I feel again the only problem with it that Aure mentioned would be mod compat
it's why an ingame editor would be easier in that regard
coarse nest
Yeah true
frosty dock
like the club deck where the club doesn't appear
there's only ever so many things you can support with a gui editor, but changing the starting deck and banning bosses isn't that unreasonable
coarse nest
Currently this just spits out a lua for a challenge which has the right deck and jokers etc
crisp elbow
there's only ever so many things you can support with a gui editor, but changing...
true.. not to mention like with deck creator that all becomes incompatible if Steamodded changes core components
like smodded 2.0 or whatever changing everything again would fuck it up
that's the only real "problem" with modders in the balatro community (or well any community), people will release a mod and then drop any support for it for a while until it's redundant
coarse nest
I need to work on having a previous popup window that handles stuff like author name, challenge name, game conditions, banned stuff etc
crisp elbow
or well obsolete because old code
coarse nest
But for now just a basic start is what I'm wanting
crisp elbow
best example I can think of with it is Jellymod since it was made before Steamodded was even a thing and unfortunately was pretty broken from the start
coarse nest
Regarding mod compatibility, I've made it that the libraries are easily added to for now, I can eventually have it that it enables/disables mod stuff to the libraries depending on checkboxes. But I'm shit with coding and hate doing it XD
frosty dock
jellymod is a tough case as it suffers both from early modding being widely incompatible with itself and also from being unmaintained
frosty dock
Regarding mod compatibility, I've made it that the libraries are easily added to...
Again I can see that being way easier with an in-game editor. For example you could just browse the collection and use certain keys to add starting cards or ban certain things and whatnot

not sure how you'd have python interfacing with lua that way, but sure
For a start it'd just read the folders in your mods folder and operate off the titles and a known list, enabling and disabling etc. It's possible to make it scan through the lua scripts looking for anything in the right style though but I imagine that'd take time/computing power and be pretty unoptimized.

So this is what I've got in a file to just test it showing up and no dice. Not showing under my mods at all or in the challenges. My version of SMOD should be right, installed it yesterday. I only got Balatro on the 21st, sunk 80 hours into it, decided to get a custom challenge and edit it to do a test I wanted, then just went down this rabbit hole making a program to do it for me
unkempt thicket
does anyone know how I can make this show in a info_quene (the stuff seals and editions use)?
coarse nest
Got the program generating and working for me at least. Tested to be consistent for me, it's at least a start. If I can get the newer version of challenge mods working I can easily update the code and the way it generates the script. So if anyone can help with that I'd appreciate it.
cedar flame
@coarse nest for adding ranks here's some example code:
SMODS.Rank {
key = 1, -- the number or name (ex. "Jack") of your rank if it has one
card_key = 1, -- the short key put after the suit when coding a card object (ex. for the card "H_5" the card_key is 5). this seems to usually match the shorthand
pos = { x = 0 }, -- x position on the card atlas, here 0 because it's to the left of 2
nominal = 1, -- the number of chips this card scores
next = { '2' }, -- the next rank directly above it, not sure what this does?
shorthand = '1' -- used for deck preview (ex. 1 of Spades)
}
i haven't figured out how to get the rank to work correctly in straights, though

Ayyy managed to get the game crashing from too many vouchers somehow XD I gave myself all the vouchers, once it played the foil shake animation for the jokers as they appeared and I assume started to load the vouchers, it crashed. So now might have to test to see the limit as to how many vouchers is too many.
Also, anyone got any examples of a mod to add in another button on the homescreen that then goes into a new page etc? Since I may be up for learning how to implement my deck generator into the actual game etc.
frosty dock
generally that's a bad idea because it goes off the screen if multiple mods try to do it

it's better to make a tab in the mod's page in the mods menu, like settings/credits tabs that usually exist

That would also be fine.

I've made a python program that allows you to custom generate a challenge with jokers, cards, consumables and vouchers of your choice.

Palette is broken though so avoid that and it should all be fine. I intend on pushing an update fixing it later though. Going to also add in the ability to change the challenges name, the deck used, some extra rules/modifiers etc if I can work it out.
But yeah, python script program is cool and all but yeah would be better to get it in game. So a tab in the mods page sounds good. How would I go about doing that?
frosty dock
Palette is no longer broken because it's been removed
You'll want a closer look at how the game's UI works, refer to this: #💻・modding-dev message
coarse nest
Palette is no longer broken because it's been removed
I was referring to my generator. I had a typo for it in the dictionary.
frosty dock
ah
coarse nest
One typo that really got me is consumables though. The game code and by extension the needed bit in challenges, has it as consumeables even though it's spelled right in game on display.
So I had the correct spelling in my generator and it wasn't working, had fun figuring that bit out.

coarse nest
What we thinking? Have it all on one page/window or have them each accessible with a next button? Since I'm doing a page 1 for things like name author etc, you hit next then go to this window. I could make it that each get their own window accessible with next.
regal wolf
Looks cool, but why not just do it in game?
I'm working on the BU-CB mod and for that I'm just going to have a challenge maker in game
coarse nest
It's an eventual thing but I'm not a coder, a python generato is the best I can do for now XD
regal wolf
Ah, Gotcha
coarse nest
Ah if you're already on it I can stop then XD
regal wolf
No no!
I was just asking a genuine question
like maybe there was some upside I hadn't realised
coarse nest
There's more upside getting it done in game for sure, since you can interact with other mods and read their additions and add that to your options etc.
I guess the only upside to doing it outside of game is that I'm not even a coder and made a fully functional challenge generator in a day? XD
regal wolf
yeah its definately a lot quicker outside of the game
the ui engine is a little annoying lol
What mod are you using to inject the challenges?
coarse nest
If you're already working on one though I might just do this as a two page thing then, get the titles etc and just leave it as that to work whilst yours is being done.
regal wolf
dont let me stop you. mine is probably a little way away. I'm working on a few things at the same time

still, i'd suggest against using 0.9.8 code

Well I can make the shift to BU-CB without much issue
I've made the code really easy to edit for what output you get etc
This is what I wrote earlier to control the header output in preperation for me giving the first page for inputs etc. I can just wipe this chunk out and do the return stuff etc
And yeah, I could have it all under the lua_code = but I want it formatted in the program to make editing easier. Which makes what I'm about to do simple as well.

i see, seems like if you're just focusing on making a challenge it shouldn't be too hard to make a file for both formats
you just need to replace the table.insert call with the SMODS.Challenge call where the formatting is basically the same

cedar flame
that should be all you need, you still need the mod header/footer comments and you also have to have steamodded installed
but if you have both of those it should automatically work

Also, can't seem to get banning individual cards to not cause a crash, so don't think that's possible so I don't need a dictionary for it at least

Tried it even with the header stuff, just swapping the body out for the new code and no luck still. I've not been using the generator for it, just copy and paste what was written etc. Once I have a confirmed working file I would then tune the generatos output

Regarding steammodded version,
cedar flame
could you show your mods menu? just to make sure that the mod shows up and doesn't have a conflict with another one
that's the most likely thing i can think of
coarse nest
And obviously all mine are just challenges. The generated challenge is what I change and save over with the new stuff and it just disappears from the list.
So yeah, unless a visual change or the enabler messes it up...
cedar flame
silly question but did you go to the last page of the challenges menu? modded ones show up after all the vanilla ones
wintry solar
Are your other mods from your generator?
cedar flame
i'm wondering if this is a mod id conflict
wintry solar
Do they have the same mod ids?
coarse nest
The ones by me use the older version. There's different mod ids
cedar flame
interesting...
i may be able to test your mod later today to debug but it'll be a bit
coarse nest
General Challenge is GenChal, Lucky Cat is LuckyCat, Hurru is HR
I might see about removing Lucky Cat and Hurru (Hurru was just a test gen to see about having multiple etc) and see if having the old challenge code there confused it or something
Yeah, removing the other two and having the header etc added does have it work
drowsy tulip
is there a list of all the context types cause i cant find anything on the github wiki
wintry solar
It might need some loc txt to show up? I dunno, everything looks fine and the mod is being loaded so 🤷♂️
Oh
Can I see the other headers?

So it must be defaulting to the older code type when it sees function SMODS.INIT.HSSCGCC ()

Welp, it's showing now with the other two added back in but ends up at the end known as ERROR

hmm, probably needs a localization/en-us.lua file
containing this:

c_mod_hr = "Hurru"

or whatever your key is with what the name should be

Sounds like it could be the culprit

separate localization files are much more flexible though, since it allows changing the language instead of hardcoding the text in the object definition

this is for autogenerated challenges, and I think with generation it would be easier to do it in one file than in multiple
like usually I'd be all for loc file use, but for this usecase I feel loc_txt is the better solution
cedar flame
either way!
crisp coral
true
coarse nest
So generating an extra file isn't hard but regarding folders I'm not sure. It's probably pretty simple too though.
opal spade
loc_txt supports multilingual definition so it could be automated to generate those too
it would look like this
loc_txt = {
<languagecode> = {
name = <name>

}
['en-us'] for english

Yup working now
I'm really not a coder XD
I think my best option for adding in localisations would be to have a dropdown box of languages that reference a dictionary for the language codes and then has the textbox to put the name in it for those that want to.
Sound good?

That's actually easy to have added

which site is this? i am newly getting into modding and would be interested in a starter like this

So assets would just be a case of you'd have to have them already, can't get around that, but having the code auto generate based on selections is what I would be able to do. Having you name your asset etc. Basically I can make code be written and have strings be added and swapped based on options selected. So anything that can use that I can do

Asking again for help with this problem. I'm trying to make a voucher that makes it so Booster Packs contain 1.5x more cards. This is the code I have now.
for k, v in pairs(G.P_CENTER_POOLS["Booster"]) do
v.config.extra = floor(v.config.extra * self.config.extra.mult)
end
end,```Problems:
1. The voucher does not come into effect immediately, only in the shop _after_ the voucher is purchased.
2. This voucher does not reset after a run. It continues to be in effect during every run until you reload the game.
3. Speaking of reloading the game, doing that will stop the voucher from working properly.
Anyone have a good solution to these problems?what you're doing is directly modifying the center, which is persistent
you may need a lovely patch for this
static juniper
Ah, the day has come for me to learn how to do that?
crisp coral

They will open up so much more for you honestly
static juniper
Where do I start?
solid salmon
fellow mod devs i need assistance
opal spade
Lovely patches are super easy tbh
tbh idk why I'm avoiding lovely patches when making my own stuff
opal spade
Look at any mod that uses them
steamodded uses a lot of lovely patches
wintry solar
Then look at the code in your lovely dumps to find your patterns
static juniper
Where do I find them? The lovely folder?
opal spade
ye
lovely patches are lovely.toml in the mod's root folder and any .toml files in the lovely folder
static juniper
I'm trying to interpret this Lovely patch code and figure out what everything does. Let me know if I'm getting anything wrong.
[patches.regex]
target = 'card.lua'
pattern = 'G.ASSET_ATLAS\["centers"\]'
position = 'at'
payload = "G.ASSET_ATLAS[(G.GAME.viewed_back or G.GAME.selected_back) and ((G.GAME.viewed_back or G.GAME.selected_back)[G.SETTINGS.colourblind_option and 'hc_atlas' or 'lc_atlas'] or (G.GAME.viewed_back or G.GAME.selected_back).atlas) or 'centers']"
[[patches]] and [patches.regex] are required to make the code recognize there's a patch.
target is the file you want to patch
pattern is the specific segment of code you want to modify. I don't know what the \ means yet.
position is where you want to modify the code. before means placing it before that segment, after means placing it after that segment, and at means directly replacing that segment?
payload is the segment of code that is being added to the file at position relative to pattern
Did I get all of that right?
frosty dock
[patches.regex] specifies the type of patch. the other one that's ofte used is [patches.pattern] it's a lot more efficient than regex and enough most of the time, but it's more restrictive, i.e. you can only match single full lines.
if you don't know regular expressions, have fun figuring that out
the \ escapes the square brackets, which otherwise have reserved functionality of grouping characters together
frosty dock
ffs what's happening, I'm going insane
.....
inconsistently either everything is animated, nothing is, or only the top half

the `\` escapes the square brackets, which otherwise have reserved functionality...

wintry solar
It would probably be easier to make them cards instead

it's a bit over-padded still but I can figure out the specifics for that once everything else is right

Like galdur does for stakes

frosty dock
it works as long as it's in your mod's folder in either one of lovely.toml or lovely/*.toml
regal wolf
You can either have it as a "lovely.toml" folder inside your mod directory.
Or you can have it in a sub-directory inside your mod directory called "lovely"
for example
static juniper
Should I have a mod directory? I've always just put things right in the Mods folder
crisp elbow
Yeah
You definitely should
It makes debugging mods easier
It's the recommended way to do it if a mod is hardcoded
for looking for a specific directory
