ill come back tomorrow

[sturdy compass]

I lowkey forgot I was on mobile so the formatting is absolutely horrendous and unreadable for me lmfao

[tall wharf]

here is the important bit

[wintry solar]

no not at all

[livid tapir]

nvm that doesnt work 😭

[sturdy compass]

I’ve never actually used eval_this yet so I couldn’t tell ya

[wintry solar]

this is a ridiculously convoluted way of adding chips

[tall wharf]

i know

i want to add it in 5 stacks of 64

because giving flat 320 is kinda boring

[wintry solar]

I see

you don't need the event

[tall wharf]

do i just loop that 5 times

and it will work

[stiff locust]

yeah

do SMODS.poll_enhancement and poll_seal require the card to not already have an enhancement/seal to work

[wintry solar]

you don't need a card to poll

polling just gives you the key of a enhancement/seal

[stiff locust]

no but I want to apply a random enhancement and seal to a card and it's not working even though I did everything right

in context.before

[wintry solar]

set_ability needs a center given to it, not a key

[tall wharf]

why didn't i even think of this

[stiff locust]

but then at least the seal should be working? cryptid does it this way with seal the deal

how do I get it to work with a key instead of a center

[wintry solar]

just put the key in G.P_CENTERS[keyhere]

[stiff locust]

oh

[wintry solar]

the seal one should work though

[stiff locust]

so would this work
value:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS[SMODS.poll_enhancement({guaranteed = true, type_key = 'waterenhance'})], true, false)

[livid tapir]

guys how do i change the amount of discards

[stiff locust]

also yeah the seal's just not working, but it doesn't crash either, it does juice_up and then nothing happens

[livid tapir]

im tryna do a test and need more discards

[stiff locust]

hold tab with debugplus it probably has a thing for +discard

[wintry solar]

yeah that enhancement should work now

[livid tapir]

oh yea it does

[tall wharf]

this also works which is lovely

[candid epoch]

holy

[stiff locust]

diamond pickaxe not making diamonds moment

[hardy viper]

lovely like the runtime code injector for games built with love2d?

[tall wharf]

yes

(i have patched some code)

[candid epoch]

i really love the lego version

[vagrant cedar]

What am I missing

[stiff locust]

okay uhh

i did a stupid

forgot to put the code that sets enhancement/seal inside the context

the end was in the wrong place

it's still not working

[livid tapir]

i just realized i was looking at the actual hand instead of the played one

OMFG

pluh

[dark kite]

can hooks be used to add custom colors? for text formatting

[stiff locust]

okay i've got nothing

[vagrant cedar]

I'm just trying to make a simple Joker that just gives 69 mult, anyone know what I did wrong?

[stiff locust]

idk what i'm doing wrong here

[livid tapir]

guys please help idk what to do

                    end
                end

                return result
            end
        end
    end
}
``` it seems i have no idea how to check scoring hand, not only that there could be another issue of what im doing that i just dont know of
HELP
PLEASE AAAAAAAAAAA

[wintry solar]

marie can you send me the whole code block?

[vagrant cedar]

I used the example jokers file so I have no clue what is wrong with this. Just trying to give a joker 69 mult

right now it's this

the part that makes every unscored card into a stone card works as expected
but I want the random enhancement + seal to trigger first, and any card with the random enhancement/seal won't be turned back into a stone card by the second effect

which is what value.cut is supposed to do

[stiff locust]

yes

[violet void]

you're looping G.hand.cards instead of G.play.cards (or context.scoring_hand)

[tall wharf]

ok well i think it's a bit broken

[violet void]

what is it even doing😆

[stiff locust]

local hooklc = loc_colour
function loc_colour(_c, _default)
    if not G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS then
        hooklc()
    end
    G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS.your_color= HEX("FFFFFF")
    return hooklc(_c, _default)
end

this'll do it, you then refer to your color with {C:your_color}

[wintry solar]

and you said it juices correctly?

[vagrant cedar]

Anyone able to VC and help me fix my single Joker mod? It should be really simple because it's just one Joker that gives static mult

[stiff locust]

the juice for the set unscored cards to stone cards works

I haven't gotten the enhancement/seal effect to even run

[tall wharf]

ill get some sleep

[wintry solar]

change if value.ability_name == 'Stone Card' then to if value.config.center_key == 'm_stone' then

[violet void]

rip sleep schedule

[livid tapir]

i changed the for loops to G.play.cards
uh it still does nothing

[tall wharf]

anyway

[livid tapir]

[tall wharf]

I'm working on #1326135270759993364

I'm going to add new blinds tomorrow

for no reason

[stiff locust]

that worked thanks

is there any way I can make poll_enhancement ignore stone card but generate any other enhancement

[dark kite]

attempt to index field 'G' [a nil value]

[wintry solar]

just check if it's stone or not and repoll if it is

[violet void]

idk what context.joker_count is

shouldnt you be using #G.jokers.cards?

also theres another ipairs(G.hand.cards) instead of ipairs(G.play.cards)

[tall wharf]

what does poll_enhancement do actually

[dark kite]

ok wait nvm i fucked up on my end LMAO

[stiff locust]

random enhancement

[dark kite]

yay yay yay it worked imagine me showering you in confetti

[stiff locust]

[tall wharf]

i didn't do it like that 😭

[tall wharf]

banana

[dark kite]

i messed up the variable on my end

quick fix tho

[stiff locust]

well you should

it's amazing

and it's free

[tall wharf]

local NON_STONE_UPGRADES = {}

for k, v in pairs(G.P_CENTER_POOLS["Enhanced"]) do
    if v.key ~= 'm_stone' then
        NON_STONE_UPGRADES[#NON_STONE_UPGRADES + 1] = v
    end
end

[violet void]

is it an even chance for each enhanchment or is poly rarer

[stiff locust]

it's enhancement, not edition

[dark kite]

you know what the hardest part of my mod is gonna be. how tf is flower pot gonna work if theres more suits than there are cards in a hand

[violet void]

my bad

[stiff locust]

flower pot only checks for vanilla suits

[violet void]

but is it even

[stiff locust]

i think poll_ediiton weight goes foil < holo < poly < negative

[dark kite]

erm... thats lame!!

[stiff locust]

i cant imagine why poll_enhancement or poll_seal would have different weights

[dark kite]

i was thinking having it be any four different suits

[rough furnace]

IIRC poy and negative have the same rarity

[tall wharf]

wheel of fortune 2

[stiff locust]

that doesn't sound like a difficult patch to make

[tall wharf]

New spectral card idea
50% go to the boss blind immediately
50% go to ante 1

[violet void]

is this too broken

[livid tapir]

ok fixed and it still does nothing
i just have some gut feeling that i used a single wrong parameter or smth and its fucking it up
heres my calculate

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            local has_ace = false
            local has_ten = false

            for _, hand_card in ipairs(G.play.cards) do
                if hand_card:get_id() == 14 then
                    has_ace = true
                elseif hand_card:get_id() == 10 then
                    has_ten = true
                end

                if has_ace and has_ten then
                    break
                end
            end

            if has_ace and has_ten then
                local result = {}

                for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards or 1 do
                    for _, hand_card in ipairs(G.play.cards) do
                        table.insert(result, #result+1, {
                            message = localize('k_again_ex'),
                            repetitions = 1,
                            card = hand_card
                        })
                    end
                end

                return result
            end
        end
    end

[livid tapir]

LOL

[tall wharf]

how do you actually flip it and flip back

do you just make an event to do it or something

[violet void]

I made it into a utils function

    for i=1, #table do
        local percent = 1.15 - (i-0.999)/(#table-0.998)*0.3
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({trigger = trigger,delay = delay,func = function() table[i]:flip();play_sound('card1', percent);table[i]:juice_up(0.3, 0.3);return true end }))
    end
end

function cs_utils.unflip_cards(table, trigger, delay)
    for i=1, #table do
        local percent = 0.85 + (i-0.999)/(#table-0.998)*0.3
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({trigger = trigger,delay = delay,func = function() table[i]:flip();play_sound('tarot2', percent, 0.6);table[i]:juice_up(0.3, 0.3);return true end }))
    end
end```

yes its events

[stiff locust]

it's not doing its intended effect so yeah it's pretty powerful

[violet void]

thats its intended effect tho

[stiff locust]

then why did you write "and vice versa"

[violet void]

it found a better hand

[stiff locust]

.

[livid tapir]

(Finds a better hand if possible)

[stiff locust]

i don't understand the design philosophy but pop off I guess

also uhh

objection

a five of a kind with 9s is better than one with 6s

it did not find the best hand it could make

🤓 ☝️

[violet void]

oh yeah I turn the fewer cards into the ones that there are the most of

[dark kite]

when that perkeo hits

[stiff locust]

you just gave me a really good idea for a mod

[tall wharf]

😭😭😭😭😭😭

[stiff locust]

balatro monopoly mod

[tall wharf]

noooo 😭😭😭😭

[stiff locust]

might do that at some point

i say might because I already have another mod idea to do first and i've already got tsunami to deal with

[wintry solar]

base enhancements and seals all have the same weight, editions are foil:20, holo:14, poly:3, negative:3 but in a no_neg poll poly is 6

[stiff locust]

noted

[wintry solar]

iirc, enhancements and seals default to a weight of 5 for comparison with modded content

[livid tapir]

once i get this workng.... >:)

[livid tapir]

EVEN MORE AHHAAAH

[violet void]

so whats wrong specifically

[livid tapir]

i have no idea
it just does nothing when i play a hand with scoring aces and 10s

[violet void]

um... can you return a table like that for repetitions?

[livid tapir]

i have no idea its just what i thought from hack 😭

[violet void]

what happens if you return what youre inserting in the table in the for

[livid tapir]

probably bad

ngl

lets see

[livid tapir]

well yea thats what it does
it returns that table

and does nothing

sadlys

[violet void]

I dont think you can retrigger jokers like that

[livid tapir]

its supposed to retrigger card hands (every single one) if it finds ace and ten
wait
tf is the for i in g.jokers.cards for
😭
lemme try killing that random nested for statement and just doing for _, hand_card etc

but yeah i dont think thats gonna work to retrigger the entire played hand

here is what im doing rn

SMODS.Joker {
    key = 'jjj',
    loc_txt = {
        name = "J. J. Joker",
        text = {
            "Retrigger entire hand",
            "if played hand contains",
            "an {C:attention}Ace{} and a {C:attention}10{}"
        }
    },
    rarity = 2,
    atlas = 'atlas',
    pos = {x=3, y=0},
    cost = 7,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            local has_ace = false
            local has_ten = false

            for _, hand_card in ipairs(G.play.cards) do
                if hand_card:get_id() == 14 then
                    has_ace = true
                elseif hand_card:get_id() == 10 then
                    has_ten = true
                end

                if has_ace and has_ten then
                    break
                end
            end

            if has_ace and has_ten then
                local result = {}

                for _, hand_card in ipairs(G.play.cards) do

                end

        end
    end
}

[violet void]

um no that doesnt look like it will work

[livid tapir]

ye uh but
i just wrote stuff 😭

[violet void]

relatable

[livid tapir]

i still dont get what retrigger api is and if it could help in this scenario

searching it up gave literally no info

[rough furnace]

just like do what photograph does

Or probably just steal this https://github.com/Steamodded/examples/blob/master/Mods/ExampleJokersMod/ModdedVanilla.lua#L207

[livid tapir]

ok i have an idea
let me try smth

i MIGHTVE made something
now its just time to test

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        local has_ace = false
        local has_10 = false
        if context.cardarea == G.play and context.repetition and not context.repetition_only then
            if context.other_card == 14 then
                has_ace = true
            elseif context.other_card == 10 then
                has_10 = true
            end
            if has_ace and has_10 then
                if context.other_card then
                    return {
                        message = 'Again!',
                        repetitions = 1,
                        card = context.other_card
                    }
                end
            end
        end
    end

[rough furnace]

this will only retigger cards that are both aces and tens

actually not even

[dark kite]

take ownership is really annoying if im trying to change how calculation works

ough

[rough furnace]

this will only retrigger if other_card is both the number 10 and 14

the loop from before was correct

[rough furnace]

just take_ownership and put a new calculate function

[livid tapir]

oh yeah
AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[livid tapir]

oh

[dark kite]

i straight up just pasted the flower pot code in and edited it

so theres bound to be some error

most likely as to what im putting through the function

[rough furnace]

self in the vanilla code and smods code is different

should use card instead of self

self is the center

[dark kite]

ah

[rough furnace]

also the name check isn't nessicary

[dark kite]

i assumed it wasnt

[rough furnace]

but theres liely another check above that yopu are missing

[livid tapir]

so do i do a context thing in that loop?

[rough furnace]

no

like this loop was correct

[livid tapir]

ok

so what happens with the other loop
do i replace that with smth else

[rough furnace]

yeah the return from the second block

[dark kite]

[rough furnace]

^

[livid tapir]

if has_ace and has_ten then
                local result = {}

                for _, hand_card in ipairs(G.play.cards) do
                    return {
                        message = 'Again!',
                        repetitions = 1,
                        card = hand_card
                    }
                end
            end```

?

[violet void]

why so much tabbed

[rough furnace]

why are you looping the return?

[livid tapir]

copy and paste does awful things

[livid tapir]

so i just return

            if has_ace and has_ten then
                local result = {}

                return {
                    message = 'Again!',
                    repetitions = 1,
                    card = --[[i have no idea]]
                }
            end

[rough furnace]

yeah something like that

[livid tapir]

btw do i put card as G.play.cards bc well i dont see how id repetition the entire played hand a different way

[rough furnace]

the calculate is called for each card

[livid tapir]

oh
cool

so card = card

[rough furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-cat-huh-m4rtin-huh-huh-meme-what-cat-gif-5834484041415217257

[livid tapir]

card is an argument of calculate, i assumed that was well
the card its on rn

[rough furnace]

card is your joker

[livid tapir]

oh
wait then what is self doing ther?

[rough furnace]

your center

[livid tapir]

oh ok

so then its a context?

context.other_card?

[rough furnace]

yes

[livid tapir]

ok imma test it now🤞

ok then :(

ok maybe its that i had 27 of them

i tried one and it did the same thing

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            local has_ace = false
            local has_ten = false

            for _, hand_card in ipairs(G.play.cards) do
                if hand_card:get_id() == 14 then
                    has_ace = true
                elseif hand_card:get_id() == 10 then
                    has_ten = true
                end

                if has_ace and has_ten then
                    break
                end
            end

            if has_ace and has_ten then
                local result = {}

                return {
                    message = 'Again!',
                    repetitions = 1,
                    card = context.other_card
                }
            end
        end
    end
``` theres gotta be smth im missing here

ooh i have an idea

use config for has_ace and has_ten instead

maybe

[rough furnace]

wrong context

[livid tapir]

what context should i use then
context.cardarea == G.play?

[rough furnace]

if context.cardarea == G.play and context.repetition and not context.repetition_only then

[livid tapir]

thx

still nothing AAAAAAA

ok so i added a debug print in the seconf if block and it doesnt even print

OH WAIT IM STUPID

YES IT WORKS

LETS GOO

tysm

[dry merlin]

what would be the best and easiest way to have a joker cycle through different abilities in sequential order? id really like it if i could find a joker that does something similar but i cannot, vanilla or otherwise
so you get the joker and it has abilities 1-7 lets say, and when you select a blind it moves onto the next ability (either starts at a random point or always starts at one)

[livid tapir]

i did a flush

the amount of lag is getting VERY PAINFUL

[stiff locust]

assumes joker has config = { extra = { rotation = 7 } }

<calculate line>
if context.setting_blind then
  card.ability.extra.rotation = card.ability.extra.rotation + 1
  if card.ability.extra.rotation == 8 then
    card.ability.extra.rotation = 1
  end
end
---example rotation effect
if context.end_of_round and card.ability.extra.rotation == 1 then
---end of round effect
end

something like this should work
the rotation starts at 7 because if you get the joker from the shop, it will then advance the ability rotation by 1 on the next blind, so it actually starts at 1. If it started at 1 from shop, then it'd actually start at 2 in the next blind, which skips rotation 1, you can change the starting value for rotation if you don't like that, or during set_ability you can call a random value for the rotation to have it start on a random one

and it resets to 1 when it hits 8 so it goes 1 through 7 then back to 1

[dry merlin]

awesome, thank you so much!

[stiff locust]

anywho

how the hell do tags work

I thought I did everything right with mine but I keep getting this crash

and I can't understand the code around that line to figure out why it's happening

but I can only assume it's because of poll_edition

code

[wintry solar]

try moving the end after the return

[stiff locust]

ah shit

didn't work

identical crash

i assume you meant the end 4 lines from the bottom and the return 2 lines from the bottom

or did you mean the return/end at the top

[wintry solar]

the one near the bottom

oh

SMODS.create_card takes a table

not a load of args

[stiff locust]

oh

that changed the crash

attempt to call field 'poll_edition' (a nil value)

is this the same thing where it has to be a table

IT WORKED

uhhhh

okay new problem

or do I make it a feature

it's pulling a random edition from any edition including modded editions

I want it to just be foil/holo/polychrome how do I do that

[wintry solar]

you need to add an options table to poll_edition

[stiff locust]

can you elaborate

[wintry solar]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Edition#edition-methods

[shut sigil]

I'm trying to make deckskinslite accept my skin, but I can't seem to get it to work

[stiff locust]

it didn't work

i think i know how to fix it

but i don't like the fix

okay i don't know the fix

nevermind

I hate the fix

and now it hates me again.

it doesn't make any sense

[stiff locust]

it would be so incredibly helpful if this page included examples

card:set_edition(SMODS.poll_edition({_key = "bubble", _mod = nil, _no_neg = true, _guaranteed = true, _options = {"e_foil", "e_holo","e_negative"} } ) )
it says poll_edition is a nil value it's a function what does that even mean

i did everything it said to do

[wintry solar]

poll edition is a base game function

it doesn't take a table

[stiff locust]

why is it on the SMODS edition page

what do you mean it doesn't take a table it

[wintry solar]

because it's an important edition function

it takes individual arguments because it's a base game function

[stiff locust]

right great so I had it before

except that card:set_edition(poll_edition("bubble", nil, true, true, {"e_foil", "e_holo","e_polychrome"})) didn't work either because it just ignores the options

it's making a lot of cryptid editions

this is frustrating

[wintry solar]

can you run eval print(poll_edition("bubble", nil, true, true, {"e_foil", "e_holo","e_polychrome"})) a few times in debugplus?

[stiff locust]

i don't know what that means also I don't know how to run debugplus commands also I should probably update debugplus for this I haven't done that in a loooong time

figured it out

cry_glass

ran more

[wintry solar]

you have something messing with poll edition

do you have your entire mods folder open in your vsc workspace?

[stiff locust]

no but I can do that

got it open now

is it fucking gamblecore istg

okay no that just plays a sound

it does hook the function to play that sound and that's it

[wintry solar]

search function poll_edition

[silk compass]

Hey guys, anyway I can change the font of specific UI elements?

for example changing the font for the chip x mult calculation

[stiff locust]

cryptid showed up with this, I would assume this is the cause because it doesn't make other modded editions, only cryptid ones

[wintry solar]

no it's not cryptid

[stiff locust]

betmma vouchers showed up with this

other than that, it's Steamodded and Gamblecore, and gamblecore just hooks it to play a sound

[wintry solar]

can you show the gamblecore one?

[stiff locust]

oh my god it's the gamblecore one

it doesn't have the options part

that's why isn't it

[rough furnace]

run eval debug.getinfo(poll_edition)

[wintry solar]

yup

[stiff locust]

fuuuuuck

okay well

damn okay

i'll check if this issue is known and if it's not i will make a pr to fix

it has occured to me i have no idea how to do that

[rough furnace]

how to make a pr?

[stiff locust]

yeah

idk if thats even what i should do right now

[rough furnace]

I mena for someothing simple like this probably just edit from the githbu web view

[wintry solar]

is it your own mod?

[stiff locust]

no

i found the "fork this repository and edit this file" button

[rough furnace]

yeah

and then with the fork you can make a pr

[stiff locust]

huh

oh I see

okay right

I think I did it

I don't know how to check if I did it right

but it says I did it

that change does fix the issue and it now respects the options field

so yeah i guess that means my tag is done now

i appreciate the help

[wintry solar]

no problem!

now make sure it works on better calc 2 😉

[stiff locust]

https://tenor.com/view/tmvtm-tmvtmgc-bnha-mha-boku-no-hero-academia-gif-27400725

[wintry solar]

latest smods version rewrites calculation

[stiff locust]

oh

[wintry solar]

so you might need to make adjustments to previously written code

[stiff locust]

right okay

[stiff locust]

when was the smods update that did this

[wintry solar]

1306 is the first one

[stiff locust]

ok but when was it

[rough furnace]

the 13th month 6th day

[stiff locust]

oh that was

what

13th month???

[frosty dock]

2 days ago

[stiff locust]

it's

[wintry solar]

yes it is the 13th month

[stiff locust]

january is the

what

[frosty dock]

it's the 13th month until we officially move into beta or it becomes the 14th month, whatever happens first

[stiff locust]

right

okay

so instead of noting the year you just

keep counting the months

I think I get it

[frosty dock]

it's fine we're moving into beta soon enough™️

[rough furnace]

well we couldn't roll back to 01 cause 0101 is lesser than 1231 which would break dependacies

[stiff locust]

is this going to break a fuck ton of mods

[wintry solar]

it will break some mods

[stiff locust]

.

do you have any examples of mods that it breaks

[rough furnace]

Crytpid

[wintry solar]

if your mod just adds jokers and doesn't do any lovely shenanigans with scoring it'll be fine

[stiff locust]

cryptid does like everything I expected that

uhhhhh

yeah about that

[frosty dock]

anything that has enhancements or editions or modifies functions like eval_card and evaluate_play

[rough furnace]

even if it does lovely shenangigfans with scoring it might be okay

[stiff locust]

okay I don't have enhancements or editions or modify functions

[rough furnace]

(like JamMod)

[stiff locust]

I just do 1 lovely patch to do the splash logic

[wintry solar]

that should be okay

[stiff locust]

as long as you guys didn't touch the splash logic i'll be fine

[rough furnace]

side not when do we remove the old calc warning on the tutorial?

[wintry solar]

but it means you can do stuff like this

return {
  chips = 10
}```

and it just works

[stiff locust]

does it remove the hardcoded messages though

[rough furnace]

Steamodded beta changelog:

• removed splash logic

[wintry solar]

I think when cryptid and talisman are ported at least

[stiff locust]

https://tenor.com/view/goku-goku-angry-xenoverse-2-gif-7335905850737743765

[wintry solar]

what do you mean?

[stiff locust]

like when you return chips it always does +chips in blue and you can't change that

[wintry solar]

no you can change that

[stiff locust]

but it's hard coded

i tried this like a week ago and it didn't work

and they told me it was hard coded

[wintry solar]

you can either do chip_message = 'blablabla' or remove_default_message = true

it was

[stiff locust]

oh my god

[wintry solar]

but this is better

[stiff locust]

well I feel like I need to wait for at least cryptid and talisman to be ported

cause if some of my mods do use better_calc and some don't then I can't keep my current modlist

[rough furnace]

well no

most old calculations still work

[stiff locust]

most?

[wintry solar]

just enhancements and editions dont work

but they were mega scuffed anyway

[stiff locust]

right okay

what else does better calc do

[wintry solar]

provides calculation contexts to everything consistently

[stiff locust]

wait everything

[frosty dock]

it be better 😎

[stiff locust]

does that include consumables

[wintry solar]

yes

[frosty dock]

yes indeed

[stiff locust]

holy shit

[wintry solar]

want a context.before effect on your deck?

[stiff locust]

hell yeah I do

[wintry solar]

better calc does that 😎

[stiff locust]

better calc is based as shit

[wintry solar]

no

it's better

[rough furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/maxwell-exploding-gmod-cat-meme-gif-27364787

[gaunt thistle]

it's alright I guess

[stiff locust]

yeah ok it's better

[gaunt thistle]

https://tenor.com/view/maxwell-maxwell-gif-cool-cat-cute-cat-cat-in-a-box-gif-11197999798535356875

[rough furnace]

when are we getting worse calc?

want to add chips in your joker? too bad

[wintry solar]

worse calc was initial merge 🙃

[frosty dock]

wait it's supposed to be better as in still not great but it least it doesn't suck as much?

[wintry solar]

yeah ofc

[stiff locust]

no that's less worse

[wintry solar]

great calc can be whatever shit victin wants to make

[rough furnace]

tbf the calculation system is pretty neat, just a bit clunky to use, especially for peopel not familar with it

[stiff locust]

also did you guys fix that smods bug where localization can't override vanilla

[rough furnace]

people not familar with it being not

[frosty dock]

that's a thing when you use a default.lua file

which uh

i think

we're removing anyways

[stiff locust]

huh

[frosty dock]

at least we talked about removing it in favor of a metadata config

[rough furnace]

take ownership of english

[gaunt thistle]

mediocre calc

[stiff locust]

can this be done

[rough furnace]

idk I'm meming

possibly

[stiff locust]

yeah i had a mod idea but it needs to override vanilla localization

[frosty dock]

no

[gaunt thistle]

I hear you can do it if you patch the localization file with regex

[frosty dock]

you definitely can do that

you just need your loc file to be named en-us.lua and not default

[stiff locust]

oh

huh.

[rough furnace]

I hear you can do it if you summon and then get him to change localization

[stiff locust]

i don't think would approve of the changes made to accommodate Bunc Munc

that's the mod name

working on it hurts my head

[frosty dock]

I hear you can do it if you summon the right cosmic rays to flip a bunch of bits

[stiff locust]

it didn't work

wait

wait it did work

kind of.

[frosty dock]

💀

what's kind of

[rough furnace]

could probably also take ownership of whatever you want to do and then use loc_vars to point to a different key

[rough furnace]

probably less lines and the vaniolla lines that aren't defined are stull there

[stiff locust]

It only changed the Seals

[rough furnace]

oh

[stiff locust]

and not the Jokers

or anything else.

it should be changing a lot more than just the seals

[rough furnace]

send en-us.lua

oh yeah I syhould work on my new language a bit mroe

[frosty dock]

mroe

right, that lagnuage

[stiff locust]

I can't do that

it's a secret

[rough furnace]

I'm this far

[wintry solar]

"my code doesn't work" "I won't share it with you to help fix it" based

[stiff locust]

this is going to be way funnier if nobody knows what it is until it just shows up out of nowhere

[rough furnace]

My clipboard history go brrrrrr

[stiff locust]

but yeah I just took the en-us.lua file from vanilla, copy pasted it, and i've been manually making changes

and none of those changes are registering, except the ones I made to seals

[rough furnace]

if your translating everything why not just make a new language?

[stiff locust]

I don't know how to do that

didnt even know you could do that

[rough furnace]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Language

If I end up finishing my new language I will put it in the example mods

[stiff locust]

okay

guess I'm making a new language now

also totally unrelated question

is there a way I can make chicot appear in standard packs

[rough furnace]

maybe in_pool

[stiff locust]

with like a 2% chance

[keen sleet]

Would anyone mind helping me figure out what's wrong here? I'm trying to make a joker that adds a random edition to cards before they score but it happens all out of order.

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
            context.other_card:set_edition(poll_edition('digital', nil, true, true), true)
            return {
                extra = {message = "Upgrade!", colour = G.C.CHIPS},
                colour = G.C.CHIPS,
                card = card
            }
        end
    end

[stiff locust]

why did you set the _options field to true

[wintry solar]

you'll need to use context.before and iterate over context.scored_hand

[keen sleet]

The joker adds the edition to all of the cards right when you play your hand, but the edition doesn't seem to count in scoring yet, and the upgrade message shows up after the card's scored. I kinda only want the cards to get their edition right when they're scored, not all at once

[stiff locust]

yeah put it in if context.before then
and use for index,value in ipairs(G.play.cards) do and then use value to refer to the card

[wintry solar]

^ context.scoring_hand is better that G.play.cards here

[stiff locust]

depends what you want

g.play.cards will include unscored/extra scored cards

[wintry solar]

scoring_hand also includes extra scored cards

[stiff locust]

i'm used to that because yk the whole splash mod

[wintry solar]

yeah makes sense

[keen sleet]

Okay I see, I'll try adding the editions in context.before, thanks guys

There isn't really a modding wiki right now is there?

Closest I could find is steammodded's wiki which is super unfinished and doesn't really explain much about anything that can be gleaned from the source code

Which is good enough for now, but still a chore

[rough furnace]

smods wiki and it explains a decent number of balatros core code

what are you wanting to know?

[keen sleet]

It'd just be nice to have on hand so I can look stuff up myself. Where is it?

[rough furnace]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki and referencing the source code is super handy (See https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Mod-Metadata#useful-resources [@frosty dock why is that there?])

[keen sleet]

I see, that's the wiki I was using before but it looks a lot more complete now. ty

[frosty dock]

[because this used to be the getting started page and I forgor]

feel free to move somewhere else

[rough furnace]

we should have a proper getting started making a mod page

let me go do that

[dry merlin]

im trying to have a joker have a Hiker effect, just with more chips but i keep getting a nil value no matter what i try

    if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
      context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus = context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus or 0
      context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus = context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus + card.ability.extra.chip_gain
      return {
          extra = {message = localize('k_upgrade_ex'), colour = G.C.CHIPS},
          colour = G.C.CHIPS,
          card = card
      }

this code is straight from hiker

[keen sleet]

Wiki's great now for the record, I just happened to check it last right when it was being rewritten for the new release

[rough furnace]

Aure should I put the first mod guide under the guides section of the sidebar, by itself abocve Game Objects or with home?

[wintry solar]

I think top of guides

[viscid bough]

is it possible to prevent sold cards from giving money? and instead add that amount to a joker's sell value?

[rough furnace]

probably want to lovely patch Card:sell

[viscid bough]

I keep hearing of "patches" what exactly are they?

[rough furnace]

https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector?tab=readme-ov-file#patches

[rough furnace]

How do you all feel about this? https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Your-First-Mod

[hardy viper]

not sure why "page" here is part of the hyperlink
also i feel like it would be helpful to shorten the "Jokers, Consumeables, Vouchers, Backs/Decks, or Boosters" down to just "custom items"
other than that I have nothing to nitpick

[rough furnace]

1. idk isn't that how hyperlinks work
2. but it's not all custom items (blinds, enhancements, editions, seals, stakes and stickers)

[wooden nexus]

Welp, After falling asleep for hours now

I still have no clue how to add effects to playing cards

[hardy viper]

the line right above it doesnt include "page" in its hyperlink so 🤷‍♂️

[rough furnace]

ok apparently i don't know how hyperlinks work

[hardy viper]

also, centers page has things you didnt list there anyways (tags)

[rough furnace]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/933001575721500712/1089979546368999514/togif.gif

no tags have their own page

[fallen tendon]

lol are you literally making a conlang?

[rough furnace]

ok wait should page be hyperlinked or no?\

[autumn coral]

i think i fixed the custom fonts in balatro problem

we'll see

[runic pecan]

It is Day 5 and I still couldn't make my mod displayed in the in game mod list.
Did I do something wrong in my Holotro.json?

[rough furnace]

I belive that version is invalid

but also check the logs

[runic pecan]

As in, the cmd-ish window when Balatro is initiating?

[rough furnace]

yeah

or one of the other ways to check logs

[runic pecan]

Let me go checking now...

[rough furnace]

There will be a message like this one

[autumn coral]

oh my fucking. god did it launch???

i think i actually made a fucking font what

[rough furnace]

also iirc the language api lets you set a custom font

[autumn coral]

that doesn't work for what i was trying to do

i found out a way to load unlimited fonts in realtime

aka just making a fucking love2d font

i didn't realize you can literally supply filedata to it

there's a fucking nfs function for that lol

[runic pecan]

Found it:
INFO - [G] 2025-01-08 09:47:23 :: ERROR :: Loader :: Found invalid metadata JSON file at C:\Users\Riv_Falcon\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\Mods/Holotro/Holotro.json, ignoring: [SMODS _ "src/utils.lua"]:563: bad argument #1 to 'match' (string expected, got nil)

[rough furnace]

cryptic

oh thats the version check

[runic pecan]

Is there a strict format for version or something?

[rough furnace]

semi strict

it at least needs a major number

you don't need to specify a version iirc

[runic pecan]

Will this do?
Or am I only allowed to put numbers in it?

[rough furnace]

no like 0~alpha...

[runic pecan]

This?

[rough furnace]

try it and see

[vagrant cedar]

I don't understand anything on this page

I accidentally got rid of my examplejokers file

And I dont understand the smod wiki

[gilded narwhal]

HEY GANG does steammodded allow you to take ownership of a stake

[runic pecan]

Ah crap
I forgot to rename the sprite
Be right back

[gilded narwhal]

Because I want to have it to where a specific stake has a different effect on specific decks

[vagrant cedar]

omg i found it

[autumn coral]

yes

there's literally a function called take_ownership

check through cryptid i'm like 100% sure they did it

[gilded narwhal]

Okay I'm just making sure that works with stakes 😭

[autumn coral]

i don't know why it wouldn't- if it doesn't, check cryptid because again, anything remotely complicated has been done by math and not by steamo

literally the only people breaking ground from the looks of it are me and him lol

i mean i'm sure steamodded does a lot but i wouldn't know because i end up writing my own core functions more than i end up using it LMFAOOO

[runic pecan]

On the bright side, I think the mod is detected

[autumn coral]

i'm actually gonna take back this statement actually i don't know who else si

actually i think that wilson's mod is really complicated lol

and there are some others

[autumn coral]

what is the error though

[gilded narwhal]

yk i was about to say that mine is doing something cool but like it's not really

[autumn coral]

mine added a whole new mechanic i had to write my own core library for lmfao

[hardy viper]

huh arent they a center

[autumn coral]

show me code

[rough furnace]

Nope

[autumn coral]

where do you define the atlas

show me that

[autumn coral]

show me your mod directory

specifically what's in the assets folder

[gilded narwhal]

This is like the most complicated thing I've done 😭

I'm still proud of i t

[autumn coral]

looks nice

[runic pecan]

Wait
my assets folder is empty
I swear I did put 1x and 2x in it
now they're gone
probably is the issue

[autumn coral]

shrugs

i'd get rid of the underscores in the file names btw

[hardy viper]

huh

doesnt like every filesystem on the planet support underscores in filenames

[autumn coral]

yeah no i know

i have no idea how steamodded loads atlases from different mods

that's the only reason why i said that lmfao

[hardy viper]

ah

[autumn coral]

because i know prefixes are underscores

[rough furnace]

that won't make a difference

[autumn coral]

k

i just assumed that if it wasn't something silly like filepath then it was that

lol

[rough furnace]

if anything would break it it would be spaces but idk if they even do

[autumn coral]

btw my font technically loaded i just don't think i know how to use dynatext yet so i gotta figure it out lmfao

hacky solution btw (this doesn't include the object you need as well to initialize the font):

local function new_font(filepath)
    local fdata = NFS.newFileData(SMODS.current_mod.path..filepath)
    return love.graphics.newFont(fdata)
end

[zealous glen]

Finally, a balanced Joker

[dark kite]

back home from work time to remember why flower pot hates me

[vagrant cedar]

Somebody able to help me figure out what I did wrong? I'm basically trying to make a Perkeo but for Jokers instead of Consumables

[rough furnace]

whats wrong?

[vagrant cedar]

It just fully crashed game

It shows up in mods, lets me get the card

But as soon as I left shop game crashed instead of it giving me a Joker

[rough furnace]

send the crash

[vagrant cedar]

ok

[dark kite]

ohhh yeah i was trying to find out why scoring_hand was nil

i couldnt seem to find any declaration of scoring_hand anywhere

[vagrant cedar]

@rough furnace

[dark kite]

ah actually

[rough furnace]

oh it proably needs to be G.Jokers.cards

for the random element

[vagrant cedar]

Only on random element?

[dark kite]

i think its cause it tries to check before cards are even scored

[rough furnace]

yes

[vagrant cedar]

new error unlocked

[rough furnace]

sned code

[vagrant cedar]

It's the third Joker

The other two worked before I added it

[long sun]

making consumables for my consumable-oriented mod pack! :D

[zealous glen]

zodiac number 6

[long sun]

these are the Zodiac ^^

ya i'm aware that people have done this already but!

[dark kite]

suits["Hearts"] + suits["Diamonds"] + suits["Spades"] + suits["Clubs"] + suits["Stars"] + suits["Shields"] does this work for counting up numbers?

[long sun]

i meeeeeeean!

[zealous glen]

I'm not criticizing

I'm people

[long sun]

not saying you are :}

i'm using the blues of the Spectrals because the yellows are used by the Tarots :D

[zealous glen]

I just wish I remembered who 4 and 5 were

[long sun]

so the Spectrals perfectly combine the two!

[zealous glen]

me, ortalab, balatrostuck

[long sun]

ooh can i see yours? ^^

[zealous glen]

the other 2 might've been just suggestions without mods attached

I'm thinking they'd be their own thing similar to planets for for now they're Jokers

[long sun]

have there been Luigi Poker cards yet?

[zealous glen]

and they level up alongside planets

[dark kite]

[zealous glen]

Not that I know of

[long sun]

ooh!

and ooh!

[vagrant cedar]

Luigi is a Joker in Cryptid

[long sun]

aware

i'm talking about the cards used in the casino Luigi runs

[jovial widget]

Is making modded cards easy?

[twilit tinsel]

30 DONE

THERES SO MANY LEFT

[zealous glen]

what cards

[long sun]

WOAHHHHHHHHH

[zealous glen]

solution: send them all to brazil

[long sun]

THE PROGRESSSSS????

[zealous glen]

then there will be only brazil

[jovial widget]

Well I had a Joker idea I'd love to be added but I don't know how to code

I'd want to do it myself so I wouldn't bother someone

[long sun]

i see you're doing them in alphabetical order :D

[zealous glen]

I still need to fill in the missing themes

[zealous glen]

well it really depends on the idea https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/tasks.png

[jovial widget]

Ah

Its like a zombie card so it slowly infects your hand

[long sun]

what do infected cards do?

[jovial widget]

Add +1 mult each

[zealous glen]

a bit of manual labor but it's doable

[thick panther]

did you type that over or is that actually in game?

[zealous glen]

if you don't want to make an Enhancement I'd look a L Corp for reference for these extra effects

[jovial widget]

Typed it myself

[zealous glen]

Would need a hook or patch to spread

[jovial widget]

Hm...

[zealous glen]

The Joker itself should be straightforward

[long sun]

would be fine? i guess?

idk if it removes enhancements it feels pretty myeh

[jovial widget]

What about infected cards being added from the deck? I dunno if any jokers do that

[jovial widget]

It wouldn't

[long sun]

right

will the effects persist if you sell?

[jovial widget]

I do want it to still be used late-game

[jovial widget]

Yes

Once infected always infected I'd say

Unless destroyed

[dark kite]

okay yeah i think im going mental i dont understand why this isnt working

[long sun]

do they still spread?

[jovial widget]

Oooh I didn't think about that

You could get one card infected then just sell the joker

The infected card would still spread and count so...

Yeah I'd have to maybe give it more thought

[zealous glen]

what do you mean

[jovial widget]

I don't just want the infected cards in the hand to add mult

I'd want infected cards from the full deck added too

If that makes sense

[vagrant cedar]

@rough furnace Were you still helping, I wasnt sure if you got busy or something

[zealous glen]

@long sun I'd talk more about my zodiacs and/or ask about yours but I ought to go to sleep 😴

[long sun]

Fair! I'm going to bed too actually =w=

I don't have any ideas yet, I usually make the graphics first and work around them

Anyway! Niiiight!

[jovial widget]

Night

[zealous glen]

I do art last because it's hard

[jovial widget]

Yeah I'm not an artist at all, was glad I was able to make the edits look somewhat good using the regular +4 mult Joker as a template

[dark kite]

why is this flower being so difficult

[zealous glen]

see if vanilla flower pot doesn't have any implicit contexts

[dark kite]

guh?

[zealous glen]

else

[dark kite]

a

yeah im seeing some elses beforehand

it looks like it goes context.before -> context.after -> else

and flower pot is in that else section

[zealous glen]

I don't see after

in fact

[dark kite]

scroll up a little, "else" changes to context.after / context.before

[zealous glen]

that else comes after if context.after

[dark kite]

yes

[zealous glen]

so it's if not context.after

[dark kite]

huh,

[zealous glen]

to be specific

[dark kite]

would probably be like

[zealous glen]

I think this is if context.joker_main

[dark kite]

if not context.after or context.before or smth

[zealous glen]

see

[dark kite]

ill try your suggestion first

[zealous glen]

before blahblahblah main blahblahblah after

[vagrant cedar]

Victin you able to help me rq?

[zealous glen]

rq?

[vagrant cedar]

yeah i just have a single joker not working

[dark kite]

huh, weird, that doesnt crash anything but not only does the code not function but the effects of the normal flower pot are still present

[zealous glen]

oh is it "really quickly"

[vagrant cedar]

this is the error

[vagrant cedar]

yes

[vagrant cedar]

this is the code

It's supposed to be like Perkeo but for Jokers

[zealous glen]

my guess is that it's missing a if not context.repetition take a look at that line in the lovely dump

[vagrant cedar]

I have no clue what any of that means

[twilit tinsel]

and the two observers

[zealous glen]

my bad I didn't see there was more to the file

I think you used pseudoseed wrong

[vagrant cedar]

oh?

[zealous glen]

read vanilla code

read the steamodded wiki

read the lovely dumps when the crash log points you to there

goodnight

[vagrant cedar]

idk what lovely dumps means

[zealous glen]

you installed lovely

you have a lovely folder

the lovely folder has a dump

[tall wharf]

every country?

[sick sparrow]

how to add deck skin?

[sick sparrow]

most deck skins found on nexus replace cards_1 instead of adding it along with SMODS.DeckSkin

[tall wharf]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.DeckSkin
optionally have my code

SMODS.Atlas {
    key = 'vocalatro_clubs_1',
    path = "collabs/mikugumizunda.png",
    atlas_table = 'ASSET_ATLAS',
    prefix_config = {
        key = false
    },
    px = 71,
    py = 95
}
SMODS.Atlas {
    key = 'vocalatro_clubs_2',
    path = "collabs/mikugumizunda_cb.png",
    atlas_table = 'ASSET_ATLAS',
    prefix_config = {
        key = false
    },
    px = 71,
    py = 95
}
SMODS.DeckSkin({
    key = 'vocalatro_clubs',
    suit = "Clubs",
    ranks = ranks,
    lc_atlas = 'vocalatro_clubs_1',
    hc_atlas = "vocalatro_clubs_2",
    posStyle = 'collab',
    loc_txt = {
        ["en-us"] = "Miku, Gumi, & Zundamon",
        ["ja"] = "ミク, メグッポイド, ずんだもん",
        ["th_TH"] = "มิกุ, กุมิ, และซีนดาม่อน"
    }
})

[sick sparrow]

how to get card count on playing deck?

[tall wharf]

?

[rough furnace]

thats vanilla behaviour]

[tall wharf]

you hover over the deck i guess

[sick sparrow]

no, read from code

[sturdy compass]

#G.playing_cards if you want a full deck (including cards in hand and discarded). As for cards currently in the deck, I do not know

[sick sparrow]

#G.deck.cards?

[sturdy compass]

no

[rough furnace]

are you sure about that?

[sturdy compass]

Ah he was responding to the second part

I thought it was a counter to what I was saying lol

[thick panther]

what size should a suit atlas be if its just 1 suit (2-A)?

[runic pecan]

Probably 923x95?

Like, lining them in one(1) row

[thick panther]

ok, i got it right first try.

[sick sparrow]

how to move cards from one CardArea to another?

[crisp coral]

the methods are all in cardarea.lua

[runic pecan]

For some reason GitHub desktop doesn't let me publish my mod repository.
"Bad credentials", it says.

[tall wharf]

i just use the git command line

[crisp coral]

i just use the vsc github extension

[rough furnace]

yeah not too familar with github desktop but check if you can re-login

[tall wharf]

actually

"have you tried turning it off and on again" type response

[sick sparrow]

it's Card:move()

[crisp coral]

suit yourself

[dark kite]

gonna try and crack down on this flower pot one more time

[runic pecan]

Solved it! Thanks

[dark kite]

this is what ive got at the moment and it doesnt seem to be working for me

currently it just doesnt do any of this and acts like normal flower pot mechanically

theres really just like, one thing that just isnt clicking for me to understand whats going wrong

and when i find it.

[sick sparrow]

how to prevent game over from running out of G.deck?

the mr. bones method has bugs and will crash/break the game

[thick panther]

does the top suit blend in too much with Hearts? what color would work well to keep it in theme but easier to see?

[sick sparrow]

how to prevent game over from running out of G.deck?

[tall wharf]

i think so

try purple maybe

tho I'm not colourblind myself

[thick panther]

so one of these two colors?

[tall wharf]

mmmmaybe

still i think you'd have to ask a colourblind person for this if you are concerned about the legibility

i can only say so much

[thick panther]

i just want to make sure i dont confuse heart face cards /w amongus skin with the mod face cards.

[sick sparrow]

how to prevent game over from running out of G.deck?

[tall wharf]

also arch user 😭

i still have arch installed on my pc

i just don't use it

[dark kite]

chill man this is the third time youve said this

in like half an hour

[rough furnace]

you don't even lose if G.deck is empty

[shadow token]

I just installed cryptid and I keep crashing within 5-10 mins of play time with no specific trigger

[sick sparrow]

the mr. bones method has bugs and will crash/break the game
the game will kill the progress if you ran out of G.deck and G.hand

[rough furnace]

What are you trying to do?

[sick sparrow]

preventing from game over

[rough furnace]

why

[sick sparrow]

intentional

[rough furnace]

You can probably patch this check

[dark kite]

how have i spent an entire day fighting Flower Pot

and lost

i dont get it.

what does it want from me

blood sacrifice?

[rough furnace]

whats wrong?

[dark kite]

nothing happens 😭

its like the code isnt even there, like it still functions like normal flower pot

[rough furnace]

try putting a print in it

[dark kite]

im essentially trying to have it so that flower pot instead activates if there are 4 or more different suits

i tried sending a debug message and nothing showed

[rough furnace]

actually shouldn't you increase the > 3

[dark kite]

hm?

whaddya mean?

[rough furnace]

like in the check

ight now you just check if it has greater than 3 of the suits

[night pagoda]

how do I add custom unlock description for SMODS.Back without using loc_txt? I recall that loc_txt had an ['unlock'] field inside the same table with the description and name (althought the skeleton on the wiki right now is empty for some reason), but if I had to add it to the localization file, where would it location be?

[storm oar]

3 means 4 or more

[dark kite]

^

[storm oar]

and that's the intention

[rough furnace]

wait you said you put a print and it never runs

how are you injecting it?

[dark kite]

wrongly, probably!

[rough furnace]

show

[dark kite]

how should i be printing it?

because whatever i did was most likely completely incorrect

[rough furnace]

you can use print("whatever") or sendInfoMessage("whatever", "Mod")

[dark kite]

yeah, from what i can see nothing prints

[sick sparrow]

how do i do that

[rough furnace]

idk lovely patch or hooking

[tall wharf]

i argue this is easier than modding Minecraft

but also less compatible

from experience

[rough furnace]

I mean its way more comaptible than the early days

[tall wharf]

fair

[dark kite]

this is where ive put the print

but when i play a valid hand that should activate, nothing happsn

[rough furnace]

did you check the lovely consoel

also thats not really a good spot to put a print

[dark kite]

where should i put it?

[rough furnace]

not in a table

[dark kite]

also yes, i checked the lovely console

[rough furnace]

ok so how are you inecting it

moved the print for the moment

oh

also i changed it to context.before just to test something

ignore that LMAO

[rough furnace]

your function args are wrong

[dark kite]

oh?

[rough furnace]

it should be self, card, context

[thick panther]

how do you add a custom color to be used in loc_txt, like the other suit colors?

[dark kite]

adding that in didnt really do anything

its very odd considering the description change works fine

[rough furnace]

put the print at the beginning of your calcualte and see if it runs

[dark kite]

it prints

so there must be something wrong within the if statement

im trying to have a joker have a Hiker effect, just with more chips but i keep getting a nil value no matter what i try, cam amyone help?

if context.cardarea == G.play then
                if self.ability.name == 'Hiker' then
                        context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus = context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus or 0
                        context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus = context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus + self.ability.extra
                        return {
                            extra = {message = localize('k_upgrade_ex'), colour = G.C.CHIPS},
                            colour = G.C.CHIPS,
                            card = self
                        }
                end

this code is straight from hiker

[storm oar]

you dont need the ability.name check if it's in a calculate function for a joker

at least I'm pretty sure

[merry raven]

So I updated my Steamodded and got to work on updating my old Enhancement code, since effect is gone

However, I got an error message saying that there was an attempt to call a nil value in my main.lua, which is used to load files. It's this line: SMODS.load_file("data/enhancements/arc.lua")()

arc.lua is one of seven Enhancement files and it's the only one that got updated just to test the waters, but suddenly the game couldn't recognize it? Did I install the new Steamodded update correctly?

According to the error, it appeared at line 15

[dry merlin]

my bad pasted the wrong code

    if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
      context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus = context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus or 0
      context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus = context.other_card.ability.perma_bonus + card.ability.extra.chip_gain
      return {
          extra = {message = localize('k_upgrade_ex'), colour = G.C.CHIPS},
          colour = G.C.CHIPS,
          card = card
      }
    end

[rough furnace]

what if you replace your load_file with assert(SMODS.load_file('data/enhancements/arc.lua'))()

[merry raven]

Lemme try

Alright, it managed to detect the file

[rough furnace]

syntax error

[merry raven]

if context.cardarea == G.play and context.main_scoring then
            if card.ability.extra.stored_chips > 0 or card.ability.extra.stored_mult > 0 then
                card.ability.extra.stored_chips = 0
                card.ability.extra.stored_mult = 0
                return{
                    chips = card.ability.extra.stored_chips
                    mult = card.ability.extra.stored_mult
                    message = "Jolted!",
                    sound = "fm_jolt",
                    colour = G.C.BLUE
                }
            end
        end

But I closed it?

[rough furnace]

your missing some ,

[merry raven]

O

Aw man the Steamodded update kind screwed over some of the pacing in my code

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.cardarea == G.hand and not context.before and not context.end_of_round 
           and card.ability.extra.hands_seen < 1 then
            card.ability.extra.hands_seen = card.ability.extra.hands_seen + 1
            return{
                message = "Amplified!",
                sound = "fm_amplified",
                colour = G.C.BLUE
            }
        end
        if context.cardarea == G.play and context.main_scoring then
            if card.ability.extra.hands_seen > 0 then
                card.ability.extra.hands_seen = 0
                return{
                    mult = 15
                }
            end
        end
    end

For example, this card was supposed to gain +1 to hands_seen after a hand is played without it in it, and it will play a sound effect. When scored in a later hand, it will grant 15 mult

Now only the +1 gain works, the sound effect doesn't work nor the gaining 15 mult part

@wintry solar Pinging you just in case for you to look at later. Did I download the wrong version of Steamodded?

[sick sparrow]

how to hook the card:start_dissolve()?

[steep rain]

how do I use eval_this and where do I put it

[quaint latch]

local hook = Card.start_dissolve
function Card:start_dissolve(dissolve_colours, silent, dissolve_time_fac, no_juice)
  -- insert code before here
  local ret = hook(self, dissolve_colours, silent, dissolve_time_fac, no_juice)
  -- insert code after here
  return ret

[royal ridge]

you would need to call the ref like hook(self, dissolve_colours, silent, dissolve_time_fac, no_juice)

rihgt yeah

much appreciated toneblock :D

I'm trying to debuff three different cards in hand, but it doesn't seem to work, just displays the message on those three randomly picked cards and that's it

local available_cards = {}
                    for _, card in ipairs(G.hand.cards) do
                        if not card.debuff then
                            table.insert(available_cards, card)
                        end
                    end
                    
                    for i = 1, math.min(3, #available_cards) do
                        local card, card_index = pseudorandom_element(available_cards, pseudoseed('wish_debuff'))
                        G.GAME.blind:debuff_card(card)
                        card_eval_status_text(card, 'extra', nil, nil, nil, {
                            message = "Taken!",
                            sound = "fm_corrupted_wish_taken",
                            colour = G.C.BLACK

                        table.remove(available_cards, card_index)
                    end

Any insights?

This is for a blind btw

[quaint latch]

try card.set_debuff(true) instead of G.GAME.blind:debuff_card

[merry raven]

msg = string: "card.lua:600: attempt to index local 'self' (a boolean value)"

Somehow the error just travelled all the way to a different file
Line 600 in card.lua is here

for k, v in pairs(self.ability.debuff_sources or {}) do
        if v == 'prevent_debuff' then
            if self.debuff then
                self.debuff = false
                if self.area == G.jokers then self:add_to_deck(true) end
            end

            return

Interesting

ah

looks like SMODS has a function for that xd

[valid trench]

does anyone know where the game stores the current deck selected in a run

[quaint latch]

seems to be uhhh

G.GAME.selected_back

[valid trench]

alright simple enoguh

ty

[valid trench]

deck for context is just ""

I keep getting attempt to index fails and I think I'm just too stupid to see why

oh wait I need to actually declare the variable before I call it lol

[dry merlin]

im trying to do a misprint like effect, random mult within a range, but for each card played
but for some reason it keeps giving me small decimal numbers instead of numbers in the range
can anyone help?

   if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
        local temp_Mult = pseudorandom('misprint', card.ability.extra.mult_min, card.ability.extra.mult_max)
        if context.other_card:get_id() <= 14 or context.other_card:get_id() >= 0 then
        return {
          mult = temp_Mult,
          card = context.other_card
        }
      end
    end    

[dry merlin]

[random sleet]

pseudorandom doesnt take min/max values iirc you have to do the math yourself

[dry merlin]

how does misprint do it? or is it different cuz of smod

[random sleet]

o maybe im dum

[frosty dock]

is the mult_min and mult_max in your config or config.extra?

[dry merlin]

should be in .extra right?

config = { extra = { mult_min = 25, mult_max = 55 } }

Idek what I changed but apparently it's fixed now

[nocturne garnet]

im pretty sure it does right?

[lyric blade]

Is there a way to return mult_mod AND Xmult_mod as a Joker?

[runic pecan]

🤔

" unexpected symbol near '}' "

[lyric blade]

You forgtot the end after the first if

[runic pecan]

Ah crap
Thank you

[lyric blade]

Now help me (jk)

Np

[runic pecan]

And now this joker would crash the game at second round

[lyric blade]

when you start round two?

Or at the shop in second round?

[runic pecan]

when selected a blind after first shop

[glass scaffold]

Is it possible to make it where a sound is played when you win a run?

And if so, I wanna do that

[lyric blade]

Yeah I think so, somewhere you may find the code that plays the money gained sound etc. to find out how to play a sound.

hmmmm riv idk

can't help you sorry

[runic pecan]

I thought "if G.shop_jokers then" meant to prevent this kind of error

[lyric blade]

Huh lol

Maybe if G.shop_jokers >= 1? If it shows the amount of the jokers in shop

[runic pecan]

Is that how it works?

[lyric blade]

idk

[teal estuary]

piss easy

just do what you did with one, and do it with the other

but change the names

(and if you want messages, use eval_this)

[lyric blade]

I want one joker to do both

[teal estuary]

copy what you did with mult/xmult, and change the names to match the one you didnt do

thats essenitally it

[nocturne garnet]

you can do it

idfk what you mean by "is there a way"

[teal estuary]

you can make it do everything in the game if you wanted

yeah theres nothing stopping you from stacking effects on a joker

[lyric blade]

Yeah I did it with return, I can't return two things can I? In the context.joker_main

[nocturne garnet]

it seems that my joker cant be destroyed at end of round if its copying a joker 😭

[nocturne garnet]

ofcourse you can

you can return as many things as you can

its a table
