mm got it, thanks

[plush cove]

ok so how am I supposed to get orange and purple out of this code

[manic rune]

(im 100% confident that i wouldnt be able to understand ortalab's code 💔)

[red flower]

im sure eremel would be kind enough to help

[neat plover]

is this code actually functional

[red flower]

try it?

[manic rune]

actually, it might be because of this

hmmm

yeahh probably not, if theres no background color set then it should probably already be transparent if thats the case anyways

[neat plover]

oh right

[red flower]

hmm i would probably still try G.C.CLEAR

[manic rune]

gotcha, lemme try

[neat plover]

extra end

[manic rune]

anddd nope, doesnt work :(

HMMM

[iron iron]

a

[frosty dock]

several things here

other_card is not defined. you probably meant to use context.other_card, which also isn't a thing in context.first_hand_drawn context

there is also no card that has an ID of 1

[neat plover]

im stupid

[neat plover]

what should i use then?

[frosty dock]

depends on what you want to do exactly

[neat plover]

well if first hand drawn contains an ace give 3$

[manic rune]

god damn it

just what the hell is my ui inside

😭

[neat plover]

what the jimbo is on my screen

[manic rune]

i tried changing EVERYTHING that suggests an UI in this already

😭

[humble girder]

that's an extra empty box somewhere

probably the box your stuff was inside of originally

[frosty dock]

then you need to check the entire drawn hand for aces and not just some unspecified "other card"

if context.first_hand_drawn then
  local contains_ace
  for _,v in ipairs(context.hand_drawn) do
    if v:get_id() == 14 then
      contains_ace = true
      break
    end
  end
  if contains_ace then 
    return { dollars = card.ability.extra.money }
  end
end

[manic rune]

im pretty sure not

[frosty dock]

it gets a little more complicated if you want it to give $3 per Ace in the drawn hand

[neat plover]

no just if

[humble girder]

my friend that visually looks like a box with no content in it, what else could it possibly be

[manic rune]

i mean, yeah, but where can it be 😭

im seriously gonna become dora, holy s

[neat plover]

the for loop is "for_,v"?

[red flower]

it's probably in the function that makes the popup, maybe you need to change the full_UI_table color

[manic rune]

hmm, i will try

[frosty dock]

yeah. the _ is a variable in and of itself and represents the index. it's convention to name unused variables _ in loops like this as to not take unneeded space

[neat plover]

oh

[frosty dock]

do you have any experience with coding?

you might wanna read up a bit on lua and how it works first

[neat plover]

basic stuff

[neat plover]

idk that stuff just doesnt go to my brain if i dont do the same error 30 times

[frosty dock]

i still recommend you read a bit of this and try to refer to it if you're not sure how something about the language works https://www.lua.org/pil/contents.html

[frosty dock]

center 🤮

[neat plover]

thanks! ill try that

[frosty dock]

it fucking isn't a center, it's a card

[manic rune]

an example mod called it center

[frosty dock]

stupid cryptid conventions

[manic rune]

so yeah

😭

too much stuff to replace so i left it be

[crisp coral]

example mod?

[manic rune]

example mod, yes

[crisp coral]

which i wonder

[manic rune]

I actually dont even remember anymore

[red flower]

in vscode you can f2 to change the name

[manic rune]

i think it may even be from a tutorial vid

lemme check

[neat plover]

works mighty fine

[manic rune]

its this lol

[neat plover]

uhhh i gotta draw it now

[zealous glen]

Isn’t the white box automatically generated

[manic rune]

yeah, but im currently trying to find out where it is, currently trying to see whether N' theory works

MY FREAKING RAM

this is new

my steam wont even boot up again

💀

[manic rune]

yeah uh, i actually dont think full_UI_table has anything related to color

i tried printing everything

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

genuinely gonna crash out 😭

might have to stick with this for a while then, damn

[paper zealot]

This is a more genericised version that makes the ranges clearer:

local cycle_speed = 3
local sin_time = math.sin(self.TIMERS.REAL * cycle_speed)

colour[1] = (sin_time *  0.5 + 0.5) * (1.00 - 0.50) + 0.50  -- r = 0.50 -> 1.00
colour[2] = (sin_time *  0.5 + 0.5) * (0.65 - 0.00) + 0.00  -- g = 0.00 -> 0.65
colour[3] = (sin_time * -0.5 + 0.5) * (0.50 - 0.00) + 0.00  -- b = 0.50 -> 0.00

[neat plover]

making a joker🔥
drawing a joker😭

[random sleet]

so true

[tall wharf]

is this a proper way to patch steamodded

[paper zealot]

You can also supply an array of colours to a DynaText and it will iterate through the list, making each character a different colour if you want a horizontal gradient that doesn't change

[random sleet]

you dont need the preceeding indent in the pattern

but otherwise yes

[manic rune]

this probably suggests that a description box is already added before everything in here is accounted for

...so i might to track down where the function is

[tall wharf]

idk

the patch doesn't seem like it's doing anything

[random sleet]

oh

switch your quotation marks

[tall wharf]

ah

[random sleet]

' on the outside and " on the inside

[humble girder]

i think i got it and i'm pretty sure the patch now should allow correct ownership taking of everything

[random sleet]

for uh the target

[humble girder]

clicked through a round or two, didn't seem like i broke anything either

[manic rune]

ghhghhghgh

anyone knows where the code for generate_ui is?

[tall wharf]

so like this

[manic rune]

this is the closest ive got to (game_object.lua, smods) but it doesnt seem to be the place

[random sleet]

should be yeah

[tall wharf]

still no worky 😭

[plush cove]

ty for this! I had my own solution involving shiz with a custom lerp function, but this works much better!

[random sleet]

try cutting out the indents on the pattern then

[tall wharf]

still no work

[random sleet]

try

[tall wharf]

so like it currently looks like this

[frosty dock]

nice but imo the reverts should be in the same file instead of a new one just for those two patches

[humble girder]

I tried that

it kept giving me no matches

tried over, under, whatever, could be that lovely does pattern matches before regex matches, idk

only option seemed to be fiddling with priority

[hushed field]

Does setting an enhancement gate also work for consumables?

[paper zealot]

For colours HSL-based lerp usually looks better than RGB-based Lerp since it's travelling around the colour space wheel instead of through the middle

[tall wharf]

❓

[frosty dock]

uh huh, I think pattern patches in a file always happen before regex patches? something like that

[paper chasm]

In the localization files, has anyone documented what the single letter prefixes stand for in the keys? (b, k, ml, ph)

[frosty dock]

not really

they're just conventions anyway, you don't need to use them in your code

[plush cove]

duly noted!

[paper chasm]

i'd like to follow it if I can understand it, does anyone know what they stand for?

[frosty dock]

making them regex patches too and putting them after should be good enough, I don't want to fill more priorities than I need to

[frosty dock]

the better convention is to use your mod prefix

I'm not sure what they all mean off the top of my head but ml is multiline

[tall wharf]

i still don't think it is being patched correctly

[paper chasm]

oohhh that makes sense

[tepid crow]

iirc b is button text, k is for pop-ups (e.g. jokers saying stuff), ml is Multi-Line (I'm guessing), ph I have no idea

Also it's not like Thunk himself even seems to follow these conventions. And you really should use your own mod prefix like aure said

[paper chasm]

was thinking that too, noticed cryptid did kind of both so thought i'd ask, thx!

k = pop up...hm, goes kook!

a seems to be used for variables?

[tall wharf]

i wonder if it's broken on macos

[humble girder]

i guess if we really want them to be one file I could make them regex patches...

ah

[zealous glen]

Maybe UI_definitions

[humble girder]

yeah I just saw your message lol

yeah ok I'll do that

[hushed arrow]

where do I find resources on how to make my own mod?

[faint yacht]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Your-First-Mod

[humble girder]

done

[tall wharf]

i might be stupid

i couldn't for the life of me figure this out

i really do wonder if it's just macos being funny

[[patches]]
[patches.pattern]
target = '''=[SMODS _ "src/utils.lua"]'''
pattern = '''if scoring_hand and card.debuff then'''
position = "after"
payload = '''
if (context.card.ability.should_trigger_individual_debuff) and context.individual then
SMODS.score_card(card, context)
end
'''
match_indent = true

[red flower]

im not on pc right now to check but it's called in a function called something like generate ability uibox

[tepid crow]

works on windows 🤷‍♂️

[tall wharf]

i guess that's an issue with me being on macos

i guess this is a bug

[tepid crow]

does the lovely log say anything?

[tall wharf]

it didn't

[tepid crow]

can you share it anyway?

[tall wharf]

because usually it should when it patches something

[tall wharf]

i just packed my MacBook going back to my room

[tepid crow]

sure, just send it whenever you're back then

[tall wharf]

in like 10 minutes

the log is not clean at all

btw jsyk

also there is not a single mention of the file being patched

maybe I'm a rare specimen with a MacBook

oh that makes sense actually

[manic rune]

nope, its all just generate_UI

[tall wharf]

i was playing with Cryptid and the Override text didn't work properly

[manic rune]

i tried finding that, nothing came up :(

this is actually so numbing my brain rn

[tepid crow]

what are you even looking for?

[manic rune]

generate_ui, im guessing it generates a box first before it considers everything else inside the function

im currently trying to find the outer white box

[tepid crow]

ah, fun

[tall wharf]

i love ui code

[manic rune]

it is indeed fun

i have searched in literally every file i could think of

in smods and in balatro source code

just where the hell is it 😭

[tall wharf]

i wish thunk ported react to balatro

[tepid crow]

you could error inside the UI function you're generating text, that way you can see the stack traceback

[manic rune]

oh, how would i do that?

do i just, "sidlsamdlasdma" inside the code and see where it leads me to

[random sleet]

you might be able to do something funky where you trace the parent of the ui elements you are working with and delete/overwrite it

[tepid crow]

error("gimme stack traceback pls")

it's what I do sometimes when I have no idea how the hell I got somewhere

(attaching debugger when)

[manic rune]

uhhh how do i do that, (whatever).parent? i will try Larswijn stuff first to see if i can trace down the file though :D

[random sleet]

yeah basically

i just dont know which uh

thing you need the parent of

but all ui elements know what their parents are

[manic rune]

im guessing desc_nodes

[random sleet]

possibly

[manic rune]

since it has all of the small boxes in that picture

[random sleet]

that might just be the nodes table though

[random sleet]

yeah thats a nodes table

[manic rune]

gggghgkgj

[tepid crow]

I love .nodes[1].nodes[1]

[random sleet]

maybe from full_UI_table you can go the other way top-down

[foggy carbon]

when does the Flint happen compared to context.before?

[manic rune]

i have figured out absolutely nothing from this honestly

❤️

im dumb at reading crash logs

[broken cliff]

message.txt

[manic rune]

this is what i got from full_UI_table, how do i even somehow get the ui out of this

[tepid crow]

Hmm, very weird. Lovely 0.7.1 is the right version, but I don't see your patch anywhere in here

[manic rune]

im

gonna bang my head against a wall

maybe i will figure out something after a quick reload

[tepid crow]

want to make sure your lovely file is actually getting loaded by using a known file but non-existent pattern?

(and probably disable all other mods lol)

[tall wharf]

it is getting loaded i believe

if there are my patches failing

[tepid crow]

oh this one's the file you're also using for the smods patch?

WARN - [♥] Pattern '    return generate_card_ui(self.config.center, nil, loc_vars, card_type, badges, hide_desc, main_start, main_end)' on target 'card.lua' for pattern patch from Aikoyori's Joker/lovely.toml resulted in no matches

[tall wharf]

yes

[tepid crow]

(I didn't see it cuz of the huge amount of Talisman failed patches lol)

[tall wharf]

it's all in the same file

[tall wharf]

lol all good

i should arrange them into files

[tepid crow]

still weird that people on Mac haven't complained about this before though

[tall wharf]

yeah i think it's just that it's buggy on Mac

[tall wharf]

I've only seen a single other patch to smods

which is the Cryptid Override code card

[manic rune]

ok, i think desc_from_rows is responsible for the whole joker description stuff

[tall wharf]

as it didn't show the hands overridden

[manic rune]

maybe i need a hook to stop it from generating the outer box

hm

[zealous glen]

either a hook or a patch

It should be nearby Autumn’s subtitles

[manic rune]

subtitles?

[zealous glen]

@random sleet

[long sun]

hi, is there a context for a card being destroyed?

[zealous glen]

The one Canio uses

[long sun]

similar to how Hologram's ability works, but for destroyed cards?

ah lemme see

thanks ^^

[zealous glen]

Not the one that no one uses

[tepid crow]

one quick question, can you change position = "after" to position = "during"?

[tall wharf]

ok

[zealous glen]

Do you mean “at”?

[tepid crow]

no

I want it to crash

[zealous glen]

Ah

[tall wharf]

it is being loaded

[zealous glen]

Evil Lars be like:

[tepid crow]

😈

[tepid crow]

well I'm out of ideas except "MacOS is being weird"

you should ask Metherul

[tall wharf]

@gaunt thistle :P

[manic rune]

lets see

maybe i should make it so that it ignores jokers from my mods?

[tepid crow]

good luck aiko 🫡

[manic rune]

not sure how i would achieve that

[random sleet]

wh

[manic rune]

how would i even figure out what card is calling desc_from_rows, istg everything is followed by something which makes me question my own sanity

[random sleet]

https://github.com/AutumnMood924/AutumnMoodMechanics/blob/79a76e3e03c9414ab77eb254015555ddb0512186/amm.lua#L145

yeah sure

[frosty dock]

is there anything else patching here?

[manic rune]

oh

OH

OH GOD THANK YOU SO FREAKING MUCH

🙏

[random sleet]

i dont get it

[manic rune]

where did you even find that?

[random sleet]

i made the subtitles

[manic rune]

the generate_UIBox_ability thingy

[random sleet]

like a year ago

[manic rune]

ack

[random sleet]

(not quite, lol)

[tepid crow]

SMODS' src/utils.lua doesn't show up at all in the log #💻・modding-dev message so I doubt it

[manic rune]

im 100% sure thats where the white box is generated

...because, uh, i believe N' 👍

[random sleet]

ok its in card.lua

[manic rune]

gggggg

[hushed arrow]

how to create a mod that changes some values of the original game without adding anything new?

[random sleet]

🔨

[frosty dock]

uh huh

[random sleet]

youll need this

[tepid crow]

idk I still feel like it's more likely me and aiko are missing something rather than MacOS being broken but I can't figure out what

[tall wharf]

the same file has all the patches

[frosty dock]

i was just wondering if there was anything else acting on the file

can you run with --dump-all?

[hushed field]

Hmm, I have a negative card enhancement that isn't able to be discarded by the player. I'm thinking of whether I want them to just stay in hand when discarded, or to not let a discard go through when they're in the hand. I guess graying out the button might be the way to go, so that they can still be discarded by The Hook? 🤔

[tall wharf]

on mac?

[tepid crow]

I mean there's a lot of nuances there (with e.g. trading card, mail-in rebate)

[frosty dock]

mhm

[tall wharf]

what do i send

if you meant log here it is

[frosty dock]

huh

[tepid crow]

oh, interesting

[frosty dock]

is there a SMODS folder in the dumps?

[hushed field]

Yeah, though that should be fine, from what I've been able to reason through. It's really just the Hook that I'm wondering about, and whether the play experience is better if you click discard and not all cards go, or whether you're just stopped before hand already.

[frosty dock]

[tepid crow]

I personaly think it's be nice to be stopped from discarding entirely

instead of letting me discard then going "no you don't"

[hushed field]

Yeah, they already punish you for having them, I don't wanna do a double feels-bad mechanic, haha

I think greying the button out if they're highlighted and not making it clickable should be fine, then. The Hook (and modded jokers)'ll still be able to discard them, but let's just call that synergy

[tall wharf]

like the patch works fine on windows

[tepid crow]

starting to look more likely that lovely isn't doing its thing on mac 🤔

[tall wharf]

that's so lovely i spent half an hour trying everything

[frosty dock]

[random sleet]

that's so lovely
bassline

[frosty dock]

that's not very lovely of mr. lovely

[tall wharf]

in any case

😔

[random sleet]

OH WAIT
did you try forward/back slash swapping

[manic rune]

you are making graveyard so broken, watdasigma

[random sleet]

that would be such a stupid and trivial reason, but,

[tall wharf]

macos uses /

[random sleet]

o

sorry

[tall wharf]

it's just macos being weird as hell

[random sleet]

im sorry

[crisp coral]

DEVELOPMENT RESUMES TODAY

🎉

[random sleet]

myst im making graveyard content pog

[hushed field]

when are you adding fusion summons? 👀

[manic rune]

finally found you...

how long did that take

[random sleet]

joker fusions already exist

[crisp coral]

hell yea

[random sleet]

im not huge on the mechanic as balatro's limitations make it difficult to use well

[crisp coral]

i love thinning playstyle

[hushed field]

Haha fair

[hushed field]

I want my decks like my hairline. thin

[random sleet]

i do wanna keep adding ridiculous mechanics to the game tho lol

[manic rune]

are you adding yugioh into balatro

[tall wharf]

why does it still only trigger in hand 😔

[random sleet]

suit levels, perma mult/xmult/xchips/..., joker stamps, aspects, sts bottles, and graveyard now after i defeated Myst and got the rare drop

[manic rune]

wha

[tall wharf]

ah

[manic rune]

was Myst the one piece the whole time

maybe the true Myst was the friends we made along the way

[random sleet]

myst was the one who made graveyard lol

[manic rune]

i c, i will see myself out

[random sleet]

i just polished a few rough spots and will be maintaining it from here as it seems

[hushed field]

time to add mana, dexterity mechanics, and palming cards to cheat to the game next

[random sleet]

palming cards.....

unironically tho that could go hard af

[manic rune]

what r palming cards

[hushed field]

not enough stealth mechanics in balatro tbh

[random sleet]

like hiding it up your sleeve basically

[manic rune]

oh crap accidentally turned on premiere pro

im gonna crash now, goodbye

[random sleet]

im die goodbye forever

[manic rune]

ok nvm it didnt ram overdose

my fan is loud as hell though

[random sleet]

palming cards in balatro could be like, picking 1 card in your hand and having a button to palm it and store it for later. would remove it from your deck until it is retrieved, but like youd be limited to 1 palmed card... except with maybe a voucher? :3

[hushed field]

Is the graveyard also added to AMM, Autumn?

[random sleet]

yes

[manic rune]

oh, that sounds like that uhh one joker which stores a card in themselves

someone posted it here

[random sleet]

i have been pushing code incessantly to both mods

[hushed field]

Hmm, making AMM a dependency would basically require all your features to be in there, right? 🤔 While I do love the suit levels and graveyard, it's not something I'm planning to design around. There's not a way to selectively turn certain features on or off, is there?

[random sleet]

i do need to look into that, something like the SMODS optional features

[zealous glen]

You can just make the cards unable to be discarded when selected

[tall wharf]

is there a way to get joker in context.individual

[zealous glen]

Rather than while in the hand

[manic rune]

G.jokers.cards?

idk

[hushed field]

Oh yeah, that's how I've got it set up rn

[crisp coral]

can't you use other_joker

[random sleet]

if you dont add any way to increase suit levels, they'll always stay at 1 and thus not affect anything
and similarly, the graveyard should be unintrusive mechanically as well, you'd have to specifically do something with it

while the added UI will still be there, the mechanics dont do anything if you dont make them do so

[hushed field]

That'd be great! I'd love to make it a dependency instead of having your code just hidden in mine, but my friends all got confused by the additional UI 😛 Though for the enthusiastic modders I'm sure it wouldn't register as relevant

[random sleet]

yeah i might just make it so that the UI is toggleable rather than the entire functionality

because im lazy :)

[tall wharf]

i don't think it works like that

[crisp coral]

it's a different context

[hushed field]

Can't say I don't feel that 😛

[tall wharf]

i wanna trigger it on playing cards

[crisp coral]

well

card???

would card = card work

[tall wharf]

then is this correct

[foggy carbon]

is there a way to see what a lua file looks like during the game with lovely applied?

*lovely patches

[hushed field]

after the game starts, the patched code is in /dump

[foggy carbon]

thank you

[crisp coral]

that looks jank

[tall wharf]

it is as jank as it can be

[opal spade]

what are you trying to do

[foggy carbon]

okay, so this seems to be the offending line?

[hardy viper]

card should be _c there

@edgy reef seems like your patch

unless_c is center

idk

card is nil though so seems like the opposite

[foggy carbon]

card does exist as a concept in the larger function (generate_card_ui)

so I think it is intended to be card, there's just not checks for nil

[tall wharf]

i am trying to make debuff cards give X1.1 mult

[opal spade]

in play or in hand?

[tall wharf]

both

[hardy viper]

are there checks for nil in other places in that function

[tall wharf]

-- it is forbidden to dog
SMODS.Joker {
    atlas = 'AikoyoriJokers',
    pos = {
        x = 7,
        y = 0
    },
    key = "it_is_forbidden_to_dog",
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 4,
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return {
            vars = { 
                card.ability.mult
             }
        }
    end,
    config = {
        mult = 1.1,
        should_trigger_individual_debuff = true
    },
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.other_card.debuff and 
        (   context.cardarea == G.play or 
            context.cardarea == G.hand ) then
            return {
                xmult = card.ability.mult
            }
        end
    end,
    blueprint_compat = true,
}

[hardy viper]

i feel like if youre calling generate_card_ui with a nil card it should error regardless tbh

[opal spade]

scoring doesnt check contexts on debuffed cards

[manic rune]

i have an idea, how about running through all cards in your playing hand?

[foggy carbon]

start of the function does this, which I guess generates a default card, but only if card_type is definied?

[tall wharf]

that's why i am (trying to) patching steamodded to make that possible

[manic rune]

i think they should still include debuffed cards

[tall wharf]

unfortunately i am very stupid

[opal spade]

you could just write a function that handles your joker through "find_card" (with all the required retrigger code) and then put it here and whereever the debuffed held cards are debuffed

[opal spade]

this is [SMODS] _ utils.lua and the held cards are probably at functions/state_events.lua (unless this function handles both)

[tall wharf]

yes this is the patch i was trying to do

[opal spade]

why are you scoring the debuffed cards

[opal spade]

also looking at the state_events that function handles played and held

[tall wharf]

should it not be

[opal spade]

the point of a debuff is that the cards are debuffed

[tall wharf]

and so i want those debuffed cards to get X1.1 mult

[hardy viper]

wouldn't that be src/utils.lua

not just utils.lua

maybe that got changed because of the 0.6.0 incompatibility

[opal spade]

ye src

[hardy viper]

nvm then

[random sleet]

what if i just

[manic rune]

yeah i give up on fixing

literally cant figure out anything, damn.

[tall wharf]

wait

i think i figured something out

[runic pecan]

I'd swap cups', wands', and swords' colours because of historical reasons.

[random sleet]

ok i can remove them from the game

[runic pecan]

Is this too convoluted?
This is meant to support Straight build.

[manic rune]

i thought its "within +- 2 range of"?

though my grammar might be bad so idk lol

[neat plover]

i have an idea for a laggy joker, but i dont like the name, any of yall got an idea for a better name?

[runic pecan]

I think it could be "of", since I chose "from" as in "counting from".

[neat plover]

pretty sure it is

[manic rune]

does it just, lag your game

if so, Jokernet Explorer

[neat plover]

no it just has bad connection

[neat plover]

tho i really like that

[manic rune]

hmmmmm

[runic pecan]

Jeague of le Jokers?

[tall wharf]

crazy shit

[hardy viper]

"select 5 cards, their ranks will be changed such that they make a straight around the leftmost card" could be more understandable but not as strong

[neat plover]

i dont know how to draw angry sweaty men

[hardy viper]

it also would get a bit complicated if the leftmost card is a king

/ace

[manic rune]

K Q J 10 9
A K Q J 10

i think its not that complicated

[hardy viper]

doesn't apply with the wording i used

is the thing

[runic pecan]

Might just return false in can_use in those cases.

[manic rune]

for example,
x x A x x

-> K Q A J 10

[hardy viper]

would be confusing for the user since they wouldn't know what went wrong

[tall wharf]

i think something is wrong here

[hardy viper]

that straight isn't centered around the ace the hand is

also the ace isn't on the left so that wouldn't work

[manic rune]

ohh, so like

if its a 9 then it will be J 10 9 8 7?

[hardy viper]

ye

[runic pecan]

Or, if selected K, the pool of ranks would just be {A,K,Q,J} and not including 2.

[hardy viper]

and there's no straight that works that way for a 2/ace/king

[manic rune]

yeah thats seem a bit unnecessarily complicated

[neat plover]

laggy joker it is

[hardy viper]

it's just edge cases tbh

could always make an ace/king turn into 10JQKA

and a 2 into A2345

[runic pecan]

I mean math.max and math.min are a thing in lua.

Or I can also make it wrap around, and let those 98% players suffer with their 32AKQ.

[hardy viper]

lmao

[runic pecan]

The down side would be not being compatible with mods that adds extra ranks. But I can deal with that.

[tall wharf]

works properly now

wrong video

fuck

still loud ass music but

[hardy viper]

randomly generate 4 cards until they make a straight with the fifth

[humble girder]

blind rabbit hole goes deep :v

[crisp coral]

TURING LOVE MENTIONED

[random sleet]

ok so it SHOULD be possible now, that if you dont use Suit Levels or Graveyard (decided from SMODS.optional_features.amm.suit_levels and SMODS.optional_features.amm.graveyard), as well as Stamps/Aspects/Oddities (determined based on amount of those objects loaded) being more hidden. the collection tab for Oddities will still exist but. eh.

[hushed field]

you're a champ! That's awesome. I'll work on making it a dependency for Kino tonight!

[random sleet]

functionally, if you dont use oddities the game will no longer attempt spawning them (failing and spawning a jimbo instead), and the packs and tag supplied will not spawn either

[hushed field]

I don't plan on using them, but I should add some specific jokers just to interact with the other mechanics, if a player does want them turned on, haha

[manic rune]

i deserve to be shot because of what i initially thought when i looked at this.

[random sleet]

you could then use the in_pool function to check if those features are enabled!

that way those jokers dont spawn if those features are disabled

[tall wharf]

i mean

[manic rune]

oh.

so its not just me

phew

😭

[hushed field]

yeah, I've looked into conditional loading already! Just because of the theme of Kino I definitely want Reverie to be compatible, so I looked into how difficult it'd be to add some jokers for if the player has that installed too. That, and the pokémon movie for pokermon, ofc, haha

You're also good motivation for at some point ripping out all features from the content from Kino, and making that a separate mod so people can just mess around with and change those things without needing all my jokers in there

[random sleet]

my hope is that if i just. Go Out There And Be The One Who Does The Things. then maybe the one library mod that i make actually happens to catch on who knows

[hushed field]

Well, I'm fully bought in 😛

[random sleet]

and we get the mechanics presented to be fleshed out across multiple mods

[hushed field]

The more I can rely on other people's code, instead of writing my own unique implementation, the easier it'll be to make stuff that's compatible, and that's a big reason already, ofc

[random sleet]

because that's what always feels the worst as a modded player when you do like modpacks of stuff is when everything just feels like a totally separate thing

[hushed field]

Yeah, exactly

[random sleet]

what do you mean i have 5 keybinds for the same thing

[crisp coral]

average minecraft modpack

[hushed field]

I remember the tekkit days of minecraft adding 7 versions of copper that never worked together

[random sleet]

oh god

[crisp coral]

LMAO

bless mojang for adding an universal copper

[manic rune]

ok this looks more ass than i thought

[random sleet]

RIGHT i still want to make the "balatro ore dictionary"

[tepid crow]

so true 😭

[hushed field]

so, autumn, when are you adding crafting, so I can add 7 incompatible coppers to the game?

[manic rune]

i never understood how the Create mod in minecraft worked ngl

i only know that water flows = water wheel happy

[random sleet]

i have considered adding like. Materials.

but not as a crafting thing

but i guess it could result in a crafting thing

[hushed field]

it is that I'm too committed to Kino to just digression into a different mod, but now I have the idea of suits as materials to craft jokers, and it doesn't seem too difficult to make 😛

[random sleet]

but uh this is more like having groups for stuff, like food jokers

[random sleet]

-# i can do anything

[manic rune]

that was my horrible attempt of trying to make a jevil spritesheet 😭

[random sleet]

chat why is faygo actually good

[hushed field]

ooh, if you do start this soon, let me know, so I'll make my system compatible with it. Once I've got ~150 functional jokers, I wanna add a tagging system for jokers to help with spawning and checking on specific conditions

[tall wharf]

to chinese people does this look presentable

i do not know chinese

[hushed field]

As I currently already check for genre, and for certain qualities like 'has Batman' or 'has vampires', but I wanna expand that into something modular so I can add to that a lot more easily.

[manic rune]

as an asian, i can confidently say that resembles asian languages

[tall wharf]

same

i am also asian

i can confirm too

[manic rune]

epic

[neat plover]

very accurate

[random sleet]

joker hat on the dog

[tepid crow]

"I recognize everything except the middle character"
so pretty good

[manic rune]

or joker hat on the person

[manic rune]

scrumptious

[tall wharf]

DEVELOPMENT RESUMES FOR ONE DAY

what's a good rarity for this

[manic rune]

probably uncommon at most, since its a very niche ability

[tepid crow]

imagine getting it in double or nothing tho

🤤

[tall wharf]

idk why i wanted to add this

[manic rune]

please dont joker

[old bane]

idea:

Blackjack Joker:
Gain X2 Mult on 21
Gain +Mult on < 21 (based on total value)
Score 0 on > 21

rarity?

[manic rune]

what do you mean by "on 21"?

[old bane]

in the full hand, if the total value of the played cards are == 21

so like two kings and an ace would be 21

(or also just a king and an ace)

[manic rune]

huh

X2 Mult if the ranks of all played cards add up to 21
+() Mult if the ranks of all played cards add up to below 21

thats probably easier to understand

[old bane]

i see

would it be like a rare or smth

or like an uncommon

[manic rune]

ehh, i actually think it should be a common

X2 Mult being locked to a very specific hand combination can hurt most strong builds

and other than that, the other buff is pretty meh

so id say this is an early game joker when you havent built your deck properly yet, aka a common joker

[old bane]

gotcha

[tall wharf]

#1332876752610922567

[old bane]

damn im not original

[west mason]

just finished this joker, not entirely sure about the rarity and how many rounds until it triggers, any suggestions?

[fallen tendon]

Is there any way to pass an external texture into an edition shader?

[random sleet]

i set up a Groups feature

[manic rune]

thats a lot of banana john

[random sleet]

this is a super basic implementation, i havent done any of the actual pool considerations

[runic pecan]

So um, 嚴禁遛丑角 actually means "(This area) prohibits walking jokers", so the joker hat needs to be put on the dog's head.

[random sleet]

like no duplicates or whatever

[manic rune]

first of all, i personally think you should list the chance for each occurrence to happen

and i think 2-3 rounds is fine

[west mason]

yeah

the chances for a legendary are 1 in 10, and the chances for it to be a tarot card instead are 1 in 8

[old bane]

maybe you can have it be in a little info center? just so the card description itself isn't super bloated

[manic rune]

dont repeat my mistake lol

[cursive glade]

is there a global variable like G.jokers. but for consumables?

[runic pecan]

I wander if there can be a universal library mod that sets the pool of food jokers and everyone can just add their food jokers of their mods to this pool.
You know, for mod compatibility.

[random sleet]

yes that is exactly what i am trying to do

[old bane]

it is G.consumables.

[random sleet]

but nobody wants to actually make the thing that is helpful

and just wants to complain that it doesnt exist

:)

[cursive glade]

huh. i got a nil value error from it. alright, i'll take a closer look

[runic pecan]

OK now I just saw this one, sorry.

[old bane]

probably could take a look at jokers like Tarot Joker or Abstract Joker, I think those create tarot cards and emplace into G.consumables

or really just any joker that makes a tarot/planet/spectral card in your consumables area

[random sleet]

sorry

[old bane]

coding libraries be like:

[frosty dock]

oops

[old bane]

Soul Cycle be like:

[random sleet]

why did you put another soul

[runic pecan]

Now that's a lot of soul gems.

[old bane]

Soulful:
Selling this Joker will create a Legendary Joker

[manic rune]

john souled everywhere 😭

[runic pecan]

"It's pneuming time!"

[tall wharf]

oops all soul

[frosty dock]

so actually I didn't make any lovely patches for this

Introducing https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/pull/480

[random sleet]

LETS GOOOOOO

[frosty dock]

does it make a bunch of patches from other mods useless? maybe. is it worth it? absolutely.

[random sleet]

ab. so. lute. ly.

[humble girder]

it's G.consumeables, thunk doesn't know how consumable is supposed to be spelled

[cursive glade]

Yeah lol i just saw that

[cloud hill]

Hi! I'm new to the server so I hope that this isn't a dumb question to ask here. I'm recently getting started with modding balatro, and right now I'm pretty curious on how to make a custom joker to add to the game. Are there any guides/tutorials, because I'm having a hard time with finding something like that online

[frosty dock]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Your-First-Mod This would be a good place to start

[west mason]

how can i do this?

[cloud hill]

thank you sm 🙂

[frosty dock]

There's also #1307744498360520805 message which I think has some video guides

[opal spade]

iirc there was a smods branch with something like this but it went stale unfortunately

[manic rune]

john, that video is the reason why i called card "center" 😭

[cloud hill]

omg thats what I was was looking for thanksss

[manic rune]

but other than that its really useful

[tepid crow]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/pull/265

[opal spade]

i was about to post that yeah

[west mason]

thanks mate

[old bane]

info_queues are your best friend here, in this case, you'll wanna make a custom info_queue. In your localization file, it's the same as declaring a joker definition, you just have in your Other= section. In your joker code, you just add info_queue[#info_queue+1] = (your info queue localization key here) in between the loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card) and return { vars = {}} of your joker code

[frosty dock]

😭

[manic rune]

this should be correct, yes?

oh nevermind

its consumeables, not consumables

what the hell

[frosty dock]

[runic pecan]

Imagine somebody patches every "Consumeable" into "Consumable" in every file of the game.

[manic rune]

https://gyazo.com/4600f200f3574221667077ce73b8cc26

[tall wharf]

made it slightly better i think?

maybe too good

for verdant leaf

[manic rune]

who wanna roll on a banner with trash, trash, trash, and trash 🗣️

[cloud hill]

in the loc_vars function right?

[minor furnace]

I love how my computer is telling me Balatro is already running when it most definitely is not

[manic rune]

yeah

you should def call it card instead

dont be like me 😭

[minor furnace]

time to reboot

[manic rune]

im inside your computer.

[cloud hill]

ohhh ok thanks you just saved me from the same thing hahaha

[old bane]

if i use copy_card with a joker, can i then use that joker in SMODS.add_card?

[tall wharf]

how do i use context.blueprint again

with blueprint the card just does not work anymore 😔

[old bane]

it's for blueprint-like jokers, so if you don't want a specific part of a joker to be copied by blueprints (usually used for scaling, because blueprints don't have the variables to scale), you use not context.blueprint

[tall wharf]

ok i am stupid

i used return instead of break

all good

[cloud hill]

ohh ok making a simple joker wasnt that scary

[tall wharf]

ok so

[manic rune]

emphasis on the word, "simple"

[cloud hill]

how you make the joker trigger on certain events tho? like if you play a specific hand

[manic rune]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/calculate_functions

[cloud hill]

yeah i was looking at other jokers on github and they were absolutely crazy

[tall wharf]

it sounds funny but ill keep the joker on the person

[cunning barn]

if you want my opinion i think that this specific joker with that specific blind is such a niche case that i think it should stay like this. for a fun rare synergy

[tall wharf]

anyhow

how do i get ability of a card from blueprint

[manic rune]

ive been working on my mod for 10 hours at least

damn.

[manic rune]

uhhhh

somehow take the whole joker's calculation 🗣️

or alternatively, you can store the card you want to "copy" in a table

[cloud hill]

        card.ability.extra.mult = card.ability.extra.mult + card.ability.extra.mult_gain
        return {
            message = 'Upgraded!',
            colour = G.C.RED
        }
    end```
i hope im not asking too many simple things but, how do you add more conditions? like i'm making up an example, if the hand is a three ok a kind of 7

[manic rune]

then the card which copies others will read through all of the cards in that table

in context.blueprint

[manic rune]

you would have to go through the entire playing hand

see if all of them r 7s

[cloud hill]

ohh ok, and it should still be in the calculare function?

[manic rune]

mhm

[cloud hill]

thankssss

btw i just realized, are you the author or balatro star rail?

[manic rune]

ye

[cloud hill]

you're actually insane

[manic rune]

ive gotten this far mostly thanks to everyone else too lol

they have been really helpful

[tall wharf]

omg yme

[novel violet]

i think this is fairly restrictive? it'd need to be strictly a 3 of a kind 7s with no other scored cards

personally i would loop through scored hand and use an incrementing local var to see how many cards in hand are 7s, if i >= 3 execute else end

[manic rune]

im not even overexaggerating when i say that i wouldnt know how to create a simple UI if not for everyone's help, best modding community ive ever been a part of ngl

[manic rune]

i mean, it kinda depends on what kind of effect you want to achieve

but yeah, your solution should work best in his context i think

[sturdy compass]

I do something very similar for one of my cards. You can reference that if you'd like

Oddly enough it also looks for three 7's

[manic rune]

777 is a nice number

i might actually add a

[sturdy compass]

agreed

[manic rune]

its such a nice number i would

[sturdy compass]

[west mason]

had to create the localization files so it took me a while, but here it is

[tall wharf]

ok seriously

[manic rune]

we are serious now

[sturdy compass]

Does the grading change per instance of the card?

[west mason]

yeah the chances are for each individual copy of the joker

[sturdy compass]

Hell yeah. Super sick concept

[manic rune]

what takes priority when the rng is calculated, the legendary joker or the tarot card?

[runic pecan]

Remember to add a "{C:inactive}(0/4){}"
wait, nvm.

[sturdy compass]

I would hope the legendary lmao

[west mason]

the tarot card, for the troll factor

[manic rune]

nah what, thats brutal 😭

[sturdy compass]

bruhhhhh

[manic rune]

but its PSA so that makes sense

they really be manipulating the market with this one 🗣️

[west mason]

the other one i've made is just traumatic evolutions with it being an inverted legendary lucky cat lmfao

+0.1 mult per failed lucky card trigger

[sturdy compass]

I have a similar one at a larger scale but less cross-mod friendly lol

[manic rune]

i can actually make jokers whose ability is different depending on what you choose now that i made the turning page stuff, very convenient

if i were to work on a library of ruina mod

this would be a perfect opportunity to give roland his 9 abilities

❤️

[manic rune]

imo it should be xmult ngl

like, + x1.02 mult per failed probability check

bcz +mult for an uncommon is pretty lackluster

[sturdy compass]

I don’t think you realize how common probability checks are

Cuz trust me, that card can SCALE

[runic pecan]

Is there like a tutorial video or something for making these balatro mod wiki pages? I find it not quite easy to chew though the Guide the wiki provides.

[manic rune]

i cant see it competing with lucky cat at all ngl

💀

[tall wharf]

am i ok

[sturdy compass]

No I kinda just copy-pasta’d the source from other already established pages and changed it for my purposes. Picked up the syntax fir it along the way

[hushed field]

in base game that's good but fine, but damn, yeah so many mods turbo-boost that joker, haha

how does it define what counts as failing, versus succeeding?

[sturdy compass]

It doesn’t even work with other mod’s jokers cuz it’s a hardcoded check 😭

[sturdy compass]

Kinda just common sense. Breaking Gros Michel/Cavendish, Wheel not hitting, lucky card not triggering, etc.

[manic rune]

wheel hitting foil should be considered a probability fail ngl

[sturdy compass]

😭

[frosty dock]

bananas are stated as chance to destroy, not chance to keep

[hushed field]

ah yeah if it's hard-coded that makes sense haha

[frosty dock]

so the check "fails" when it's not destroyed

[sturdy compass]

While that is true, it doesn’t make sense for the card so I took a liberty

Plus gaining +999 mult every time cavendish doesn’t break would be stupid

[tall wharf]

mr john steamodded i need assistance regarding the blueprint's inability to copy the forbidden to dog joker

i mostly copied this function from the steamodded score card function and i don't know if this is correct or not please enlighten me

[prisma loom]

Folks, a genuine question: does this card need such specification?

I personally feel like its logical and specification is just bloating the text

[manic rune]

If first scoring hand of round has 4 or more unique suits,...

that would make it a bit shorter

[prisma loom]

theres no such thing

its called poker hand

which implies all cards in it are scoring

[manic rune]

i literally make up words for my mod ❤️

[prisma loom]

:D

I'm just a nerd

[tall wharf]

Eidolon 6

[manic rune]

castorice kit is leaked

the full one

peak

and as i expected, its longer than a wikipedia page

i aint adding that to my mod anytime soon 😭

[prisma loom]

I mostly was talking about the last part of the effect

[manic rune]

i think that part is alright

[sturdy compass]

Also on another note, I made it really easy to add compatibility since it’d just require adding a simple helper function call, but that would require other mods actually adding that lmao

[manic rune]

do you want me to add that to my mod ❤️

[hushed field]

Hmm, if I want to draw a specific card from the deck to the hand, is it just as simple as :emplace() and then visibility = true

[manic rune]

my mod is literally rng on top of rng, it will probably work really well lol

[sturdy compass]

It’s up to u

[zealous glen]

I wouldn’t write unique

[sturdy compass]

I’m not tryna force people to code compat lmfao

[zealous glen]

Also why does it show Mr. Bones

[manic rune]

nah its fine lol

[zealous glen]

Death isn’t madness

[manic rune]

Color of Sans

[hushed field]

I'd add it to mine, but I've got some jokers that would be insanely synergistic combos with it, haha. And planets that double their chances to fail each time they get used, so at the end failing is a 100/100 guarantee

[zealous glen]

What’s a failed check

[manic rune]

its whatever you considered to be a fail

like

hitting that 3/4 on a wheel of fortune

[sturdy compass]

There’s a reason why this joker is designed in a vacuum that is Maximus lmao

[manic rune]

failing to get the +20 mult AND the $20 from lucky cards

not breaking glass cards

etc

[hushed field]

well I've seen multiple crash reports for Kino where people were playing it with Maximus, so the vacuum isn't that sealed 😛

[manic rune]

actually, should this be considered a fail?

[sturdy compass]

Breaking glass does actually count as a fail in my case

[manic rune]

yeah that makes more sense

oops, all 6s + lucky cat now got competition lol

[zealous glen]

I think Breaking Glass should be a success 🤔

[sturdy compass]

Why tho

[manic rune]

its more of a loss when they break

[sturdy compass]

You’re losing a card

[zealous glen]

That’s what the card is trying to do

[manic rune]

(unless you got that legendary joker)

[zealous glen]

Good

[zealous glen]

Get rid of those cards

[prisma loom]

why?

[zealous glen]

Make my deck more consistent

[zealous glen]

Unnecessary

Four Spades are one suit

[sturdy compass]

Glasses work well as a fixing tool yes, but the main purpose is absolutely meant to be a risk/reward Xmult generator

And thus I’m balancing around that core ideaology

[zealous glen]

I think that philosophically it’s a bit inconsistent with other Probabilistic effects

[tall wharf]

ok how do i get the card blueprint/brainstorm is copying :(

[zealous glen]

Although I like encouraging Glass be destroyed

[prisma loom]

'If first hand of round has',
'4 or more scoring cards with',
'a suit, enhances one of',
'them into a Wild Card'

no this doesnt make sense

??

[stiff locust]

where does the game calculate giving +1 joker slot for negative jokers

[manic rune]

cant you just find the locations of blueprint/brainstorm, then from which determine the card they r copying?

[tall wharf]

i kinda want this to work with jokers from mods too

[manic rune]

hmm

[prisma loom]

its literally perfect to use mr bones idk

[prisma loom]

^^

[sturdy compass]

I feel like you'd like this card

[prisma loom]

Maximus mentioned

[sturdy compass]

byeah

[tall wharf]

😭

[sturdy compass]

You made a blueprint shader?? 😭

[tall wharf]

no

no

that was the blueprint mod

[zealous glen]

If first scoring hand of round has at least 4 suits, enhance a scoring card into a Wild card

[zealous glen]

stupid did

[manic rune]

why isnt it copying

[zealous glen]

🤔

[manic rune]

that's odd

[sturdy compass]

yeah it is odd that it's not copying. you have to pretty specifically code the card to not do that

[manic rune]

mhm

can u show the code

[tall wharf]

ill try something

[minor furnace]

I am absolutely stumped as to why this atlas declaration is giving me Failed to collect data for Atlas

    key = "Reverse_Bosses",
    path = "reverse_bosses.png",
    px = 34,
    py = 34
}```

[prisma loom]

Is there a single joker that uses term "first scoring hand"?

🤔

[hushed field]

For some reason, the card gets drawn face down. I'm sure it's got something to do with how cards are stored in the deck, but I can't figure out why it refuses to flip face up when drawn

[zealous glen]

Idk I don’t care too much, but also I came up with it on the spot

You can massage the wording

[minor furnace]

nevermind, I think I forgot to make the 2x version...

[prisma loom]

ig so

but you were onto something

that sounded simpler

[manic rune]

told ya, first scoring hand is the way to go ❤️

[tepid eagle]

In first hand of round,
if 4 or more scored cards
have different suits, one
becomes a Wild Card

[zealous glen]

I could check how I was drawing cards later if you want, but also I recommend drawing a random Romance card instead of the first one you find

[prisma loom]

can it be "first poker hand"?

[zealous glen]

I guess

[prisma loom]

since again, it implies that all cards in poker hand are scoring

[zealous glen]

The point is to avoid “different” IMO

It’s implied by asking for multiple suits

[prisma loom]

yes, modded suits compat

[zealous glen]

what about them

[tepid eagle]

If first poker hand of
round has 4 or more
suits, a random scored
card becomes a Wild Card

[manic rune]

he also explicitly says that the card should be unenhanced too

[hushed field]

I solved it. The work around I opted for did work, but I just did it wrong, haha. I don't think it should matter too much whether I grab the first one, or a random one, considering the deck is already shuffled

[stiff locust]

can SMODS.add_card not do editions?

[zealous glen]

On the latter part, drawing the first one makes the deck unshuffled

As in

The deck is not uniformly shuffled

[prisma loom]

4 unique suits means that it can be a modded suit

[zealous glen]

If you draw a random one it stays randomly shuffled

[zealous glen]

My point was just that “4 suits” means “4 unique suits”

[manic rune]

good morning everyone

[hushed field]

Well, it's an imperfect randomness, but not one you have any access to as a player. The first romance card in deck was already decided randomly, so taking it out of the order, but not knowing where it was in the order, shouldn't impact the player

[tepid eagle]

If first poker hand of
round contians 4 cards with
unique suits, an unenhanced
one becomes a Wild Card

[zealous glen]

It impacts the player if they draw more cards, because it’s less likely that they draw a romance card

And more likely that they draw other cards

[hushed field]

yes, it would be, except that the deck indexes from top down, so an i = 1 loop iterates through it from the bottom up. But that is a fair point

[zealous glen]

Well you also draw from the bottom no?

[prisma loom]

almost there I think

[zealous glen]

It might be easier if we spoke of the top as the place we draw from rather than the physical top

[zealous glen]

I think I’d say “at least 4 suits” and not “unenhanced”

[prisma loom]

yeah at least 4

[zealous glen]

I mean removing “unique”

[prisma loom]

what's instead unenhanced? Or just not mention it?

[zealous glen]

I was going to say not mentioning it

But you could I guess

I find it ugly but maybe it’s better to keep it

[prisma loom]

same

[tepid eagle]

if you don't specify then it would clash with the description of Midas Mask

which does overwrite the enhancement

[zealous glen]

That’s what I was thinking

But you could just

Clash with it

[hushed field]

maybe I'm misreading my own code, but from my understanding, the next card you draw is the same as G.deck.cards[#G.deck.cards]

[zealous glen]

-# or change Midas Mask’s text

[prisma loom]

but it says "All played cards.." which kinda implies overriding

[zealous glen]

-# gaslight your players

[prisma loom]

-# gaslight your modders

[zealous glen]

This is a half-serious suggestion

It depends if you want to invest in rewording vanilla Jokers

[hushed field]

except in vanilla, it's never specified that a card needs to be unenhanced, and they never override, right?

[tepid eagle]

well, this description would imply it always changes something

[manic rune]

rewording vanilla jokers is evil

[hushed field]

no nvm, thinking of editions

[zealous glen]

Be evil

Also thunk wording isn’t consistent

[manic rune]

😭

[zealous glen]

-# also not always good

[prisma loom]

yeah

crayon wording\

[manic rune]

consumeables

[zealous glen]

Anyways did you fix the issue? I can share my code if you want

[zealous glen]

caino

[tepid eagle]

If first poker hand of
round contains 4 suits,
one scored unenhanced
card becomes a Wild Card

(4 or more is implied with "contains")

[prisma loom]

Who are Ables and why consume them?

[hushed field]

I did! I somehow indexed _rom_spot as 1 instead of i, and changing it to i, so I actually get the proper location, fixed it

[manic rune]

i think you should use "a" instead of "one" by that point ngl

[zealous glen]

That’s true but that’s one case where I think I prefer being clearer ;P

[prisma loom]

smart

but wouldnt that imply that it should be exactly 4 suits?

no less no MORE

[manic rune]

nop

it says "contain", if its 5 suits then it still contains 4 suits in the end

[tepid eagle]

that's entirely subjective, and this situation has precedence with the word contain, as well as making sense in both a vanilla and suit-modded context

[prisma loom]

oh right

Im dumb

[tepid eagle]

for example, "contains a two pair" also applies to full houses

[prisma loom]

actually cooked

thanks

[zealous glen]

I know but as I said “4 suits” implying “4 different suits” is technically subjective

But I don’t think it should be clarified

[tepid eagle]

yes, that is your thought

[zealous glen]

That’s what I said

I expressed my preference

[manic rune]

thats not what i said

[zealous glen]

what

[tall wharf]

❓

[prisma loom]

I've decided to remove random out of equation

[fallen tendon]

How can i pass an external texture into an edition shader?

[zealous glen]

I think it has to be an extra variable like the others

[minor furnace]

do custom blinds have a boolean field I can check to see if it has been disabled or not?

[zealous glen]

Should be the same as vanilla Blinds

[minor furnace]

got it working, thanks

[maiden river]

how do you change the enhancement of jokers in the shop (e.x. negative tag)
I'm cooking something up rn

[wintry solar]

Just look at negative tag

[maiden river]

wait

yeah that makes sense

[minor furnace]

negative is an edition not an enhancement

[maiden river]

godammit

I was thinking edition before I typed it 😭

[autumn coral]

Is there anyone good with shaders that can explain to me how they work like I’m a 5 year old

I have a specific effect i want to do but 0 clue how

Even doing CS for as long as i have this shit is just black magic to me

[sturdy compass]

I feel that

[maiden river]

i try to close my eyes and pretend shaders aren't real

[autumn coral]

Like my mod could be one of the most complex out right now it feels really embarrassing that i don’t know how to do a shader

Lowk if i explained the effect and someone else did it i would credit you and give you $5 idrc anymore

[zealous glen]

There’s the example shaders

[zealous glen]

What’s the effect

[autumn coral]

It gets supplied 3 random textures and mashes random crops and copies of each other on top of one another with black boxes

If this sounds like tmtrainer that’s because it is

the random texture part is easy

I’m not sure how to make the shader do the effect though I’m describing

[zealous glen]

Isn’t TM Trainer from Pokémon

[autumn coral]

Yes but I’m making the isaac item

[maiden river]

well I looked at the negative tag thing and tried it out
nothing happened

[zealous glen]

I mean you could use three shaders instead of one

[autumn coral]

My mods the Isaac mod

[autumn coral]

Huh

[zealous glen]

Which Isaac mod

[autumn coral]

https://jimbo.hyperpup.pet

I’ve just been on hiatus for a few weeks, finally getting back to it

[zealous glen]

I have Champion’s Belt in my mod

[autumn coral]

Nice

[zealous glen]

But yes what do you want to apply the texture on?

[old bane]

Finally implemented a description that dynamically changes between two states depending on if death was prevented or not!

[autumn coral]

Joker

[zealous glen]

You can use SMODS.Joker:draw and make three calls I think

[autumn coral]

Huh

[zealous glen]

With three textures

[autumn coral]

yeah that makes sense

[maiden river]

dry bones is peak

[autumn coral]

ok I’ll try that first and see if it goes anywhere

[zealous glen]

It does use three times as many sprites

[autumn coral]

i gotta go for a bit :p

[zealous glen]

I have some ideas for how to do with a single shader but they aren’t as concrete

[tall wharf]

i don't think there's

a better way than this

because the chips mult and stuff won't do anything anyway

idk how it will interact with other mods but idk

i can't pull card ability from blueprint

as in

i want to check if the joker has ability should_trigger_individual_debuff so that it goes thru with the thing

[prisma loom]

Does anyone know what causes this visual bug?

the X is overriding my custom seal

even tho it's transparent

[wintry solar]

I imagine it’ll go over the top of every seal, no?

[prisma loom]

let me check for sure

[tall tangle]

Debuffed cards have ALL effects deactivated, including editions, enhancements, AND seals.

Debuff covers seals by default.

[tall wharf]

right i just faintly see the seal

[old bane]

what does next(SMODS.find_card('joker key here')) return? does it return true/false or a reference to the card found?

[wintry solar]

The card

[tall tangle]

You'd probably have to make the seal have a higher priority and a higher layer than debuff for the seal to be over the X

[prisma loom]

yup

[wintry solar]

It’s just how the shader works then

[prisma loom]

if it's by default

then this is the 1st time I noticed that lul

[tall wharf]

ill make a new seal

called

fuck you seal

[wintry solar]

It does look really weird though

[tall wharf]

that just debuffs the card indefinitely

[wintry solar]

I can’t think of how smods would introduce this behaviour though

So it’s probably just vanilla

[zealous glen]

Wrong layering?

[tall wharf]

i think this is vanilla

[zealous glen]

It looks vanilla

[grim remnant]

sorry to butt in, does anyone know of a better way to do something like this (only display a given line of card text if a config setting = true)? still trying to figure this one out. ^^;

[zealous glen]

also is your profile picture Stone Card from HoloLive EN

[tall wharf]

biboo

[zealous glen]

koseki “Stone Card” bijou

[zealous glen]

Yes especially on the bottom

Use main_end
