if I remove the info queue, it doesn't crash

[solar eagle]

how do i access it?

[tall wharf]

@opal spade have you seen the editions i did 😭

janky shader code

[dusk harness]

local start_run_ref = Game.start_run
function Game:start_run(args)
    local availableCards = getDataFromSaveState(args.savetext.cardAreas.shop_jokers)
    local availableVouchers = getDataFromSaveState(args.savetext.cardAreas.shop_vouchers)
    local availableBooster = getDataFromSaveState(args.savetext.cardAreas.shop_booster)
    print(JSON.encode(jsonify(availableCards)))
    print(JSON.encode(jsonify(availableVouchers)))
    print(JSON.encode(jsonify(availableBooster)))
    start_run_ref(self, args)
end
``` its the `args`

[quartz ravine]

Weird...when I call card:set_edition and use negative, my consumable works. But if I use my own edition I have made which has almost no fields defined other than key and the minimum fields, the game crashes with an error from smods saying p_edition is nil

[dusk harness]

thats my use case of the function but you should be able to start from there

[novel violet]

Shiiiiit I totally neglected the local declaration being in the wrong scope 😭 I just threw the if statement together to see if that'd fix it without actually cleaning it up
Ty though! I'll try that shortly

[opal spade]

you can hook/patch into it, although if it's a specific joker effect you could use SMODS.Center.load for your purpose

[dusk harness]

so when its supposed to generate the UIBox for the card?

[stiff locust]

for the info queue for the enhancement, yeah

i know it's not the tarot itself

[opal spade]

SMODS.Center.load runs on continuing a run and loading the card from save

[solar eagle]

this would be exactly what i need, my goal's just to reset a variable on game reload

defined on the joker itself?

[opal spade]

ye

[solar eagle]

lemme go look

[opal spade]

if the effect is specifically on loading the joker from save then it's exactly what you need

[opal spade]

when is shader code not jank

[acoustic sundial]

Is it possible for me to make an effect like "when this joker is destroyed"? I've been playing with a few different contexts and nothing seems to fit.

[tall wharf]

when you know what you're doing

[dusk harness]

i mean it sounds stupid but try to set a bonus cfg that is 0 for your card, i dont really know where the cfg is set tho. i would need to look for it

[opal spade]

"the file name and the first variable of the shader have to be the same string"

[tall wharf]

yep

[opal spade]

janky jank

[dusk harness]

because what happens on that line is
all cards that have a name that isnt stone card if they have specific vars and they have the bonus_chip param or the cfg

[quartz ravine]

these jokers are amazing, @tall wharf ! You even have an animation next to the side of one showing the hand change!! Amazing

[dusk harness]

they trigger the line

another idea i have is, specific vars should be an empty table in most cases if i remember my dive into localization correctly

[tall wharf]

blame my 4am sound design

[dusk harness]

so maybe just set the loc_vars of your card to an empty table if you dont have variables

[dusk harness]

looks so cool

[stiff locust]

doesn't work

identical crash

[dusk harness]

maybe try figuring out how canio works and apply that logic to jokers? i mean cards and joker are the same Card item after all they probably have the same events...

[solar eagle]

yep worked!

figuring out what to access for what property was kinda goofy

[novel violet]

not surprised in the slightest but that did end up working! ty spa

dori no longer crashes the game by being hovered over

[dusk harness]

where is that line from? because its a weird line in general

[stiff locust]

common_events.lua

cfg is defined on line 2920 at least in my dump

[quartz ravine]

Ok, Steammodded seems to crash when using set_edition to set a custom edition. I need to see how cryptid is handling this. If I don't set the edition with an e_ prefix, then it throws from an assertion, but if I do, then the edition is not listed in the edition table

[stiff locust]

you did add your mod prefix right

[stiff locust]

e_prefix_editionkey

[stiff locust]

add context.main_eval

to the end of round check

[quartz ravine]

oh god. Is it like sounds where you have to add a prefix

[stiff locust]

no it's a prefix for all modded objects you make

each mod has a prefix

like cryptid's is cry, and tsunami's is tsun

it goes before the object key to determine which mod owns what thing

[cerulean rose]

also prevents name conflicts

[stiff locust]

if you didn't set one, it defaults to the first 4 letters of your mod key

iirc

you should set one yourself

[cerulean rose]

great example: c_cry_replica vs. c_pencil_replica
(these are both real objects that would conflict if not for mod prefixes)

[stiff locust]

it won't be able to find your edition without the prefix included

[quartz ravine]

my mod prefix is fox, does that mean that I would use card:set_edition('fox_ghostRare', true) to set the edition then?

[tall wharf]

e_akyrs_texelated

[stiff locust]

e_fox_ghostRace

should do it

[cerulean rose]

class prefix

[quartz ravine]

wow I would never have figure this out

Let me try it...

[stiff locust]

class prefix is the e_ for editions, j_ for jokers, etc

class prefix, mod prefix, object key

[red flower]

isn't it triggering three times because you are specifying 3 different areas for it to trigger?

[cerulean rose]

this makes it not work at all

[tall wharf]

it's e_fox_ghostRare i think

[cerulean rose]

each card can only be in one of those three areas

[green mica]

Is there a context I could use for when a seal is applied to a card?

Welp

[dusk harness]

another idea, reading the code, is to set an empty table as your card.config param

[red flower]

but the context gets called to every object regardless of area AFAIK
so you need to check which area it is in

[green mica]

My solution is kinda janky so I was hoping there was a better way

[quartz ravine]

Ok thanks for the help folks, looks like it still fails with that p_edition error, but I appreciate it 🙂

[stiff locust]

already have that

[stiff locust]

what is it supposed to do

[cerulean rose]

trigger on end of round no matter where it is

[stiff locust]

what is the object

[cerulean rose]

enhancement

[turbid maple]

I'd like to juice up a Joker until a Blind is selected, are there any useful variables in the base game for that

[cerulean rose]

its supposed to die at end of round once the counter hits 0

[manic rune]

bump

[dusk harness]

right, but it says config is nil?

[manic rune]

i think theres juice_card_until

[stiff locust]

it's there ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[red flower]

have you tried this but without the area check

[stiff locust]

config = {},

[cerulean rose]

replacing it with context.cardarea == card.area still triggers it 3 times

[stiff locust]

context.main_eval should fix that

[manic rune]

or at least, dna seems to be using something similar to that (i haven't checked what function it uses)

[stiff locust]

but you say that doesn't work

works for me so idk what to tell you

[cerulean rose]

it triggers no times

[turbid maple]

I was gonna ask how I can check when to stop then I just realized I can just set a variable when the Joker receives a setting_blind context to stop juicing

I'm slow

[dusk harness]

do you have a repo with your code i could look at?

[red flower]

hmmm enhancements are weird

[tall wharf]

is it not just get_chips or something like that

[manic rune]

oh, i can just use :get_chips()?

thats convenient, thank

[cerulean rose]

still triggers 3 times

[tall wharf]

i think there's a function with similar name to that

[stiff locust]

not currently and i will not show the code

until there has been a release for this mod

[manic rune]

hopefully that will also account for bonus card enhancement

else i will probably hard code that in

😭

[stiff locust]

which i can't do while there's a hover tarot crash

[red flower]

ok what about context.main_eval and not context.indvidual and not context.repetition

[dusk harness]

why is it reaching in the set for cards when you're rendering a tarot? shouldnt the set for the tarot be tarot?

[stiff locust]

I have no idea

[manic rune]

oh wait, the retrigger 3 times at end of round

[stiff locust]

the set for the info queue is Enhanced

[cerulean rose]

context.main_eval makes it never trigger

[manic rune]

i fixed that in my mod, lemme check the code rq

[dusk harness]

on the tarot?

[red flower]

ok without that one then

[stiff locust]

the tarot displays the info queue for the enhancement it applies

which uses the Enhanced set and the correct class prefix and mod prefix and object key yes

[dusk harness]

i dont really understand the info queue thing

[stiff locust]

it's the little information boxes that show up next to a card

like how Perkeo tells you what negative means

Steel Joker tells you what a Steel Card is

[manic rune]

...nvm its the same code as the above, weird

[cerulean rose]

now it triggers twice

[stiff locust]

you put an info queue in which references a localization entry in a certain area

[red flower]

let's go

[stiff locust]

in this case being the Enhanced set containing my enhancement

[red flower]

maybe print the contexts to see what's the difference

[cerulean rose]

was just doing that

[stiff locust]

oh my god wait

is it because i'm using the seal method

instead of the enhancement method

[dusk harness]

rubber ducking for the win

[stiff locust]

what's that

[cerulean rose]

ok so context.playing_card_end_of_round works???

[dusk harness]

usually its just explaining the problem out loud to a rubber duck sitting on your desk, and then solving the problem by yourself because you were explaining what was happening

[stiff locust]

that was it.

[dusk harness]

but in this case its just two people discussing the how your code runs and you figuring it out

[stiff locust]

I don't know why that method didn't work but

fucking hell okay well I solved it

I was using the wrong method to get the info queue

[red flower]

what even is that lol

[stiff locust]

I forgot enhancenemts use G.P_CENTERS.enhancement key

[cerulean rose]

i have no idea

lol

[stiff locust]

seals use the set and key of the localization (which should work anyway??)

[edgy reef]

[cerulean rose]

[dusk harness]

i dunno remember this game was made by an indie on his own time expecting to sell about 5 copies so

[cerulean rose]

https://tenor.com/view/blahaj-shonk-attack-camera-dive-shark-gif-14344361424253681658

[manic rune]

holy shit i literally got a video about zen this morning 😭

is it good

[stiff locust]

it's working

the retrigger works too

i can move on to the next thing finally

[dusk harness]

LET GOOOOO

GG

[red flower]

i like it but it's kinds janky still

[stiff locust]

unrelated bug I found in tsunami when doing this

when starting a run that redeems a voucher, then leaving and continuing the run, the voucher gets stuck on the screen

[dusk harness]

back to my problem, anyone has any idea on how to get the cards that are rendered inside of a booster pack?

[stiff locust]

G.pack.cards

[cerulean rose]

i also got my thing to work 🎉

[red flower]

isn't it G.pack_cards

or do both work

[stiff locust]

it's one of the two

[dusk harness]

G.pack_cards didnt seem to have anything interesting earlier when i checked

[cerulean rose]

G.pack_cards is a cardarea

so G.pack_cards.cards

[red flower]

i use both card.config.center_key and card.config.center.key in my mod lol

i should pick one

[dusk harness]

it didnt have a .cards

i think

[red flower]

maybe you're looking at it before it is created?

also where are you looking for this? if it's for a joker or something with calculate I think there's a context for it

[dusk harness]

in G:update_baffoon

[red flower]

what are you trying to do

[dusk harness]

get the card entity from a booster pack, any type

[red flower]

yeah but for what purpose

[dusk harness]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1343474630916182037

[rough basin]

is there any context for when an ante changes? i want to make a joker that resets its values every time an ante changes but im not sure how to accomplish that

[dusk harness]

i have the whole framework to read the data i need as long as its a Card

[red flower]

maybe you can do it inside the general update and check if G.STATE is one of the booster ones

[dusk harness]

look at campfire how triggers i guess

[red flower]

maybe the other one is called at a weird timing

[rough basin]

campfire checks when the boss blind is defeated, my intention is to reset whenever the ante is changed, including the vouchers, but i guess that isnt really necessary + it might mess with the balance

thanks for the help

[rough basin]

thank you!!!!

[dusk harness]

so like inside of G:update_shop if G.STATE == G.STATES.BAFFOON_PACK

[red flower]

yeah

maybe not update shop but just update

but try both

[dusk harness]

i mean arent they the same thing? boss defeated, ante changed?

oh

so even if you use hierogliph or petrogliph it triggers, im stoopid

[dusk harness]

last time i read G:update i was feeling like it was for when the game itself was receiving an update but i might have read that wrong

[rough basin]

yeah- but on rethinking it, it doesnt make sense for my joker to reset when that happens so boss blind works perfectly well

[red flower]

update gets called every frame afaik

[manic rune]

havent been able to find that :get_chips thing ngl

oh nvm 🔥

[distant grove]

fire

[mellow marsh]

anyone have any ideas on what's going on here? the last line in the screenshot is crashing because it's comparing a number to a table

[plush cove]

do you have talisman installed

[mellow marsh]

ya

[red flower]

talisman compat 🔥🔥🔥

[manic rune]

we love when numbers become tables ❤️

[mellow marsh]

i figured it was likely talisman, was about to say i'm trying to figure out compatibility with cryptid

[rough basin]

okay i was planning to do talisman compat but this has immediately changed my mind

[dusk harness]

can someone do me a crash course on why talisman compat?

[red flower]

talisman turns numbers into tables to get bigger numbers
lua not likey when compare table to number

[old bane]

talisman turns scoring into tables so that balatro can store larger numbers

dang it

[mellow marsh]

how would i support this? cuz i would like if i could get it to work

[red flower]

#💻・modding-dev message

[manic rune]

crap, it works with enhancements but NOT editions

[red flower]

that

[manic rune]

so Foil doesnt seem to count 😭

[mellow marsh]

oooof am i gonna need to do that to all my number comparisons 😭

[manic rune]

probably gotta hard code editions in then

[red flower]

only when comparing dollars, blind mult and chips and poker hand levels AFAIK

[mellow marsh]

interesting okay

that's not too bad then

[old bane]

i wonder if it's possible to like

make a joker that when you run out of cards in your deck you just redraw them from the "discard pile"

[red flower]

so the graveyard

[old bane]

ye

infinite deck go brr

[manic rune]

where are the edition keys being stored?

[old bane]

i think whenever a card has an edition card.edition.(key) is true?

[manic rune]

oh no, like, where do i find all of the editions keys

[old bane]

SMODS.Editions may also exist

[manic rune]

(shouldve specified that, sorry 😭)

[old bane]

much like SMODS.Suits and stuff

[red flower]

isn't it in the same place as P_CENTERS

like the table below that

[manic rune]

...oh

[red flower]

or this

[manic rune]

yeah i see, thanks :D

[rich roost]

Is there a good resource for getting up to speed with the file structure, objects and code?

[dusk harness]

ok so checking G.pack_cards works but i need to check that G.pack_cards.cards[1] is not nil and then set a custom bool to true so it stops spamming, and i can call it inside of the Game:update_baffoon func

[manic rune]

this will probably not account for the edition's value being changed for only one card, but ehhhh

[dusk harness]

like this

local gotBaffoonContent = false
local update_baffoon_pack_ref = Game.update_buffoon_pack
function Game:update_buffoon_pack(dt)
    local return_val = update_baffoon_pack_ref(self, dt)

    if
        G.pack_cards ~= nil
        and G.pack_cards.cards ~= nil
        and G.pack_cards.cards[1] ~= nil
        and gotBaffoonContent == false
    then
        gotBaffoonContent = true
        local boosterContent = getAllCardContents(G.pack_cards.cards)
        print(JSON.encode(jsonify(boosterContent)))
    end

    return return_val
end

[old bane]

besides SMODS wiki, https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki, the only way to really get up to speed with the code is by extracting the source code from the game itself. SMODS wiki is more for working with modded in general, the source code is the base game's... code

[rich roost]

Cool, thanks! I've been poking around for a couple hours and am slowly getting it so the SMODS wiki will def help

[dusk harness]

and just working on your mod and talking to other people, thats how i mostly learned

[tall wharf]

guys my mod main file finally reached a milestone

[dusk harness]

how many lines

i wanna hear it

[tall wharf]

30

[dusk harness]

thats it

[old bane]

there's also some examples you can find here: https://github.com/Steamodded/examples/tree/master
these really helped me when starting out!

[dusk harness]

mine has 250...

[red flower]

my mods main file is a bunch of assert(SMODS.load_file

[dusk harness]

not a flex nor a complain, just confusion

[rich roost]

This is great! I downloaded a couple mods to see their structure but having them like this is way better

[manic rune]

my mod files are extremely unorganized ❤️

[dusk harness]

i see what you did there

[red flower]

let's go

if you don't care about the order you can just load all files in the folder

[dusk harness]

i still need to organize mine, but ill start by getting it to work first once its working we refactor

[manic rune]

this is my main.lua, its so random 😭

[dusk harness]

its fine mine is too dont worry

[tall wharf]

has anyone done sound design on custom editions

i don't think my texelated sfx works

as it not fit

[manic rune]

what is this "extra" thingy for

[red flower]

I think it was the type of message, extra makes it orange

[manic rune]

o, i see

[red flower]

added this to the main file recently so i dont forget to change debug flags before pushing lol

[dusk harness]

and i guess that debug.lua is in the git ignore?

[red flower]

yeah

[dusk harness]

not a bad idea

[manic rune]

currently tryna using this code to make my Joker announce the chips value of all the playing cards played

[wintry swallow]

is there somewhere i can find a list of all the available colors within localization & text

[manic rune]

but the message is left for when the whole hand is played and scored

[red flower]

got it, lemme try

what if you do cardarea == G.play and instead of doing the event you return { message = "your message" }

[red flower]

that im bad at the englishman language

[manic rune]

oh, i suppose that works too, if the timing for its intended functions is off then i will fix it later, thanks ❤️

[tall wharf]

British English in Balatro source code 💔

[dusk harness]

is there a smods even for opening packs i would need to hook into if i want to be able to check all packs even modded ones?

[red flower]

just hook into calculate_context and check for context.open_booster

[dusk harness]

context is always empty when i tend to check it

[red flower]

weird because I do that

[dusk harness]

i also want to stay away from smods as much as possible because the less i use smods the easier it is to transform my mod into a stand alone app

[red flower]

but didn't you just...

[dusk harness]

yes

i know what i asked

im trying to make a stand alone app for streamers who want to play full vanilla

and a mod for those who dont mind playing vanilla but have like utilities installed

but might as well support the fully modded game if im making a mod right

[red flower]

ok but what does that have to do with your question you can't check for smods boosters without the user having smods installed

you can do the vanilla check or the smods check if they have it

[dusk harness]

its not gonna be a part of the app but part of the mod

exactly

[red flower]

im confused

[dusk harness]

lets move to my topic so we dont pollute this chat

i wanted it to select a number of cards in the played hand

then increase the joker's var by their chip value

using context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play doesnt seem fit with this

[green mica]

How do make a card flip while it's gaining an enhancement or something so you can't just see the card while it's changing

[manic rune]

:flip()

then enhance it

then :flip() again

[manic rune]

i feel like if we were to ever add cross mod content, you would add shi to make the mod much more difficult 😭

[red flower]

cross mod content with joyous spring where it puts a virus in ur pc

[manic rune]

randomly chooses 3 cards in your played hand, and increases the joker's chip equal to how many chips they give

on top of that, the joker also has xchips which scale on how much chips it gained too, that should make bonus cards much more useful

why did i stylize my mod wrong

i fucked up lol, ik why the xmult is triggering so much, ill fix that but why are they getting destroyed?

[manic rune]

jokers which work like "Played cards with Spade suit give +5 Mult", and basically all DoTs count as attacks

[tall wharf]

meow

[manic rune]

which can become stronger when the playing cards they are "attacking" have debuffs, like DEF Reduction and DMG Taken

[manic rune]

the xmult should be returned in context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play

[iron iron]

ik that

im talking about the destruction

at the end

[manic rune]

that looks intentional

you sure theres no code which destroys cards with that enhancement?

[iron iron]

here is code

[manic rune]

thats odd

[tall wharf]

put return inside the if?

[manic rune]

thats for the weird scoring part

idk why it destroys the cards

[tall wharf]

i think it runs every context

[manic rune]

yeah

(imagine fixing that fixes the self-destruction part too 😭)

[green mica]

Is there a trick to making the tooltips work? It's just {T:whatever_key} isn't it?

[green mica]

I think maybe the issue is that I'm trying to add the description of an object from my own mod, so I'm not sure the proper way to refer to it

[manic rune]

it is

[sacred lily]

I have a card idea but idk if it’s even possible to make

“With this joker in hand, the Boss Blind is 20% weaker”

[plush cove]

that's simple enough

[sacred lily]

ok

[tall wharf]

😭

i have a boss blind that just overrides score

[manic rune]

how do i uhh

check when its the end of the ante

[tall wharf]

i just checked end round + boss

[manic rune]

oh, how would i do that

i know the end round stuff, but idk about the checking the boss blind

[tall wharf]

g game blind boss

[manic rune]

if G.GAME.Blind.Boss then?

[tall wharf]

lowercase b s

[manic rune]

oh i see, thanks :D

[tall wharf]

eremel will probably cry when they see my shaders for how horrible it is

[manic rune]

nah, its good ❤️

[tall wharf]

😭

[manic rune]

the FIRST element of rng in my jokers ❤️

[spiral pivot]

please help

[topaz monolith]

New to modding Balatro, so sorry if it sounds basic, but I tried finding the answer everywhere and couldn't find one. How does one tally all playing cards in the full deck that have a seal? I need it so that a joker gains chips for every seal that is in the player's full deck (Whether played already or not)

[tall wharf]

wrong channel but update your Cryptid

if you just want to play Cryptid smh

[spiral pivot]

thank you

[random sleet]

local seals = 0
for k,v in ipairs(G.playing_cards) do
  if v.seal then seals = seals + 1
end
return seals```

G.playing_cards is the full deck

however it doesnt exist outside of runs iirc so keep that in mind for if you use this code somewhere it can be called from outside a run

in particular, the loc_vars of collection items gets called regardless of if there is a run

[topaz monolith]

Thanks for the advice.

[iron iron]

mult aint triggering

actually lemme get a better ss

[manic rune]

theres really no need for this

[iron iron]

yeah ik prob

but like will it appear with mult in deck or nah

[manic rune]

you could just do something, like:

if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
  local played_moss = 0
  for i,v in ipairs(G.play.cards) do
    if v.config.center == G.P_CENTERS.m_vrds_moss then  
      played_moss = played_moss + 1
    end
  end

  return{
    xmult = card.ability.extra.x_mult + (played_moss * card.ability.extra.x_gain)
  }
end

[iron iron]

i actually dont know why that didnt occur to me

i may be stupid...

[manic rune]

its fine ❤️

[topaz monolith]

Sorry, another question. How can I check to see if an played hand has an unscored '2' and if it doesn't have a seal, give it a random seal

[iron iron]

mult doesnt change

[manic rune]

huh, thats odd

[zealous glen]

Depends on the timing. You can manually iterate over the unscored hand or use the modded unscored CardArea

[iron iron]

i believe its because played_moss = 0 is in the wrong place?

[manic rune]

it shouldnt be

[iron iron]

i could be wrong abt that tho

[runic pecan]

For every card in context.full_hand, check if it is in context.scoring_hand; and if not, check if :get_id()==2.

[iron iron]

its indentation shit

[zealous glen]

Or use the 'unscored' CardArea

[runic pecan]

Huh, I didn't know context.unscored was a thing.

[zealous glen]

It’s not

[manic rune]

its an optional feature

[zealous glen]

context.cardarea == 'unscored'

[tall wharf]

context.cardarea == 'unscored' you mean

[topaz monolith]

so, something like this?

[tall wharf]

and it's not optional feature anymore i believe

[manic rune]

oh

[zealous glen]

Yes but you need to turn the feature on

Or maybe not if aikoyori is right

[topaz monolith]

For the random seal on the card, I can just use the same random code used for the Certificate Joker Card?

[zealous glen]

Use the SMODS utility functions

To poll and apply seals

I think it was “apply” anyways

It’s on the wiki

[runic pecan]

That is for create a sealed card, but you said you need to apply a seal to a already existing card, so the answer is no.

[iron iron]

after changing the indentation it still dont work

[manic rune]

...thats really weird, im pretty sure my code should work

can you take a ss of what your code currently looks like?

[iron iron]

this is what you sent right?

[manic rune]

hmm

real quick, can you try putting a print(card.ability.extra.x_mult + (played_most * card.ability.extra.x_gain)) on top of the return

[runic pecan]

Didn't find 'unscored' in my smods file folder, I guess another update is needed on my end.

How outdated is alpha-1410a?

[hushed field]

About a month or so

[zealous glen]

They’ve gone out of alpha

[iron iron]

nothing printed

[zealous glen]

It’s beta time

[zealous glen]

Try checking for the key instead of the center

[manic rune]

...huh, so the code didnt even bother to run

[runic pecan]

Can I simplified this chunk with SMODS utility functions?

[zealous glen]

@long sun I have Paradise Parrot, Wildheart, and Wild Draw Four; and Baby’s Building a Tower into Space

[tall wharf]

omg

[zealous glen]

Paradise Parrot and BBTS is in the Alpha :3 so you can play with them right now

[zealous glen]

Hm?

[tall wharf]

I'm so going to draw anime girl

for a joker

as in Jimbo but anime

[zealous glen]

More anime girl Jimbos

[long sun]

Awesome :D

What are their abilities?

[tall wharf]

+4 Mult

[zealous glen]

Have you seen Legendere

[tall wharf]

(yes)

[zealous glen]

Parrot retriggers Wild Cards

[tall wharf]

(I literally use Bluestorm)

[zealous glen]

BBTS give you a Planet card for the poker hand if the hand contains a Stone card

Wildheart makes Wild also another Enhancement, swapping every round

Wild Draw Four makes you draw 4 extra cards in your next hand if the hand contains a Wild card

[zealous glen]

What’s Bluestorm

[long sun]

Ah I see!! Neat abilities :D

[crisp coral]

-# who

[long sun]

Here are mine:

Firey: If played hand has exactly 1 card, and it is a face card, destroy it and create a Wild Ace
Match: Gains +3 Mult for each played and scored Wild card (Currently +0 Mult)
Pencil: When Blind is selected, add a random Wild playing card to your hand

Woody: Gains +10 Chips for each Stone card discarded (Currently +0 Chips)```

[tall wharf]

mod that turns brainstorm and blueprint into anime girls

chat

[long sun]

(this also has synergy with two of my other Jokers that like Aces)

[tall wharf]

what if i add boss blind that kills stencil

empty joker slots are filled with eternal egg

[long sun]

-1 Joker Slot?

[tall wharf]

nah that's too forgiving

[long sun]

Fair

1 Joker Slot?

[tall wharf]

nah

divides mult by amount of joker slots you have

[zealous glen]

Very interesting

What’s the theme?

[zealous glen]

I have a Joker that creates a Temporary Negative Ace of Spades in hand at the start of each round

[zealous glen]

I’ve had an idea sort of like that

[long sun]

BFDI S1 contestants :D

[zealous glen]

But it’d be a Boulder

[long sun]

🔥?

[zealous glen]

I think that’s the…

Idk what it is

But its characters are stationery

[long sun]

Sort of! They're just objects in general

[zealous glen]

“🔥?”?

[long sun]

"Fire?"

(I'm saying this idea is good)

[zealous glen]

Ah

[tall wharf]

fill your joker slots with a dud

[long sun]

THE DUD

[tall wharf]

eternal dud

[long sun]

NOOOOO

[zealous glen]

It’s the question mark that confused me

[long sun]

https://tenor.com/view/homer-smile-simpsons-gif-11742885

[zealous glen]

See, personally I’d prefer the Dud to be useful in a niche scenario

I think all Eggs are too useful

Maybe 1 Egg

[long sun]

Maybe debuffed eggs?

[zealous glen]

Not nichely useful

[long sun]

Not useful at all :}

[zealous glen]

Eternal Egg would be useful with Jokers that care about sell value

Debuffed Eternal Egg only with Abstract

I do have a Boss Blind that shuffles Stone cards into your deck

[tall wharf]

half your hand is unhanced with unscored

it will literally not score

[zealous glen]

unhanced

[tall wharf]

i don't know the correct terminology

[zealous glen]

I call them Disenhancements

[tall wharf]

unenhance is removing enhancement

[long sun]

Aha, maybe you could call it The Exhaust

[zealous glen]

Because Enhancements can override them

[zealous glen]

It’s called The Rock

[tall wharf]

no I'm replacing the enhancements

[zealous glen]

It could work the other way around

[tall wharf]

yeah

[zealous glen]

I just don’t intend to create those effects

[tall wharf]

cards in hand are permanently debuffed after scoring

[zealous glen]

Disenhancements is still a valid name

[zealous glen]

I also have…Stheno

[pale temple]

can you undiscover a card

making a tarot and i want to remove the discovered state

[gaunt phoenix]

Hello ! I would like to create my Balatro mod, but I don't know what tools to use/way to go and I can't find any ressources about that online... Could somebody maybe help me ?

[iron iron]

add discovered = false like so

[modern kindle]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Your-First-Mod best bet is to go here

[gaunt phoenix]

thanks ! 💜

[pale temple]

didnt work somehow, it's still discovered

[crisp coral]

it will be undiscovered on new profiles

[pale temple]

well is it possible to do it in the current profile

or is it gonna be some save file manipulation stuff

[iron iron]

reset your save

[topaz monolith]

If I had a joker that generates a random joker, how can I make it so it picks from a small list that I picked out from instead of entirely random, and is there a way to not get a duplicate from this list, unless you have Showman?

[tall wharf]

you could just make a new profile

or back the current one up

[iron iron]

yeah you can dupe it

[minor furnace]

One of these days I need to separate my consumables, jokers, enhancements, and blinds into their own files and stop working directly in main

[modern kindle]

nah if its all in one file you can never lose it trust...

[minor furnace]

Trueeee

[opal spade]

debugplus
eval G.P_CENTERS.yourkeyhere.discovered = nil

then it should appear undiscovered

[waxen mesa]

currently making my first joker. Dont know how to reference the localization file

tips?

[tall wharf]

you don't

you just write things in the en-us.lua

also you don't have key

[waxen mesa]

like that?

[simple mural]

How can I get a code for something from vanilla if I need it? And can I get it at all??

For example, create something of my own based on this or just learning how it works?

[quartz ravine]

@simple mural , you can unzip the .exe and then take a peek inside.

[simple mural]

Really? I'll try, thanks.

[quartz ravine]

Hi Aiko, I was wondering how do you test the application of your editions? I can't reliably set a custom edition without crashing the game. But when it randomly spawns, it does work!

[waxen mesa]

Balato loads the mod but not the joker D:

[tall wharf]

i just use Cryptid edition deck lol

[quartz ravine]

lol

[tall wharf]

yes

[simple mural]

Can I find images there too?

[tall wharf]

and then in en-us.lua you add new entry in Joker for j_modprefixyouputinthejsonfile_myfirstjoker

[quartz ravine]

How did you preview what your shaders would look like? I am trying to find a place or tool I can use to tweak shader logic without having the dev loop of reloading the game over and over

[tall wharf]

glsl.app for initial

and i just load that shit in game

thunk should make the update like

Balatro season 2

[waxen mesa]

still doesnt load for some reason

I mean the mod loads

[tall wharf]

what doesn't load

[waxen mesa]

but the joker doesnt appear

in the collection

[tall wharf]

show en-us.lua

wait hmm

you have to use

SMODS.Joker

instead of declaring local myfirstjoker

[waxen mesa]

🤔

like, where do i put SMODS.Joker

[waxen mesa]

ah

didnt appear in the pokermon mod, thats why i didnt saw it

"undefined global" says my environment.

i will try it out

[maiden phoenix]

Some big mods like to like list out their items then use a constructor at the end

I recommend checking this instead https://github.com/Steamodded/examples/blob/master/Mods/ExampleJokersMod/ModdedVanilla.lua

[tall wharf]

if anyone has suggestions for what words i should include

[waxen mesa]

thats something i hoped to find in the documentation 😄

ah

found it

i need to use ' instead of "

[tall wharf]

not really.

[waxen mesa]

ok still doesnt appear

[tall wharf]

which one

[tall wharf]

ok so

show your json file

[waxen mesa]

"prefix": "Lilith",
"main_file": "main.lua",

"dump_loc": false

[tall wharf]

is this the entire file

[waxen mesa]

not entirely

just a few things that i wanna keep private

[tall wharf]

this is my entire file

[crisp coral]

ong

[tall wharf]

ong

[waxen mesa]

omg i am stupid

main.lua is basically empty

print("Hello World")

uh

what do i have to put in there

[tall wharf]

the Joker code

[waxen mesa]

no thats what belongs into the joker file

what do i have to put in the main file

[tall wharf]

THE SMODS.JOKER

PUT THAT IN THE MAIN FILE

[tall wharf]

do you want to structure the files now

if so assert(SMODS.load_file("./jokers/jokers1.lua"))()

[waxen mesa]

ok, did it, works now 😄

[tall wharf]

good

i was about to do unspeakable things

[quartz ravine]

people are not going to steal your mod ideas. Everyone here is trying to make their own things or help others. It's ok

[tall wharf]

did you know that at least 5 mods has the hand selection linit mechanics

[waxen mesa]

ok so the good news is, the joker can be found in the collection

the bad news is, the description is not loading

[tall wharf]

send screenshot of en-us.lua

[modern kindle]

We must all release the same mod I've decided
This way development can resume

[tall wharf]

lowercase j in front

[quartz ravine]

oh lord. This whole time, @tall wharf , I have been modifying the wrong shader. I thought I was working off of holofoil but no , i was accidentally working off of negative. This explains why nothing made sense

[waxen mesa]

ERROR :: Loader :: Found invalid metadata JSON file at C:\Users\Arko\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\Mods/BalatroMod/.idea/settings.json, ignoring: [SMODS _ "src/loader.lua"]:226: id

for some reason it works but the descriptions are still not appearing

i guess i just try out to make a bit more before i figure out how the hell i make localization work

[runic pecan]

What is the overall term for all foiled, hologram, and polychrome playing cards?
Because I find calling them "Cards with editions (except negative)" is too long.

[waxen mesa]

thats called Edition 😄

[turbid maple]

positive editions

[runic pecan]

I'm more expecting something like "[Something something] Card",

[mystic river]

"scoring editions" might get the idea across, assuming there aren't any mods adding more editions that score and/or that you want to include them if they exist
other than that, there's no term

[turbid maple]

Non-base Edition?

[runic pecan]

Can I call them "Editioned Card"?

[mystic river]

no, because that implies negative is included

if you want to exclude negative, you're gonna have to say it

[runic pecan]

Honestly negative included or not is not my main concern.

I just need a shorter term than "Played cards with any editions".

[turbid maple]

I'm not sure you're gonna get anything clearer than Played cards with editions (except Negative)

[mystic river]

even if you don't care whether negative counts, "with edition" is as short as you're gonna get, i think

[maiden phoenix]

Oops

[quartz ravine]

Hi folks, is it possible to also apply a texture with a special edition? I have my own boarder I woudl like to use to overlay, source of like how enhancements work

[frosty dock]

Vanilla just calls them foil, holographic or polychrome

[runic pecan]

How to change key prefix when using :extend{?

[quartz ravine]

Oh Hi John!

I have a new edition with a key of 'ghostRare'. I have a prefix of my mod for 'Fox_', is this how I should be assigning an edition?

[long sun]

Hihi! Two questions:

1. How can I check if the played hand is a High Card?
2. How can I check if the player just used Pluto?

[runic pecan]

Would this be too illegal?

[quartz ravine]

Sweet! I got my edition working! And the first one it ever appeared for was an @tall wharf card!

[long sun]

Actually ignore the first question, I found that out :}

[tall wharf]

wtf scoreless

[runic pecan]

context.scoring_name == "High Card"
2.

    if context.consumeable.config.center.key == 'c_pluto' then```

[tall wharf]

my boy

[waxen mesa]

my game crashes when i hover over my new booster pack D:

[turbid maple]

have you tried not hovering over it

the last time I saw your code your mod prefix was Lilith with a capital L but here you're looking for a key with lilith?

@waxen mesa

[waxen mesa]

yeah i made it small

[waxen mesa]

sure XD

[lyric wadi]

potential deck or challenge idea

Start with 10 hand size
Full Deck starts with 5 copies of each card (so 260 cards)
When a card is discarded, remove it form deck

would this work and does it already exists under some mods

[crisp coral]

erosion gaming

blue joker gaming

[long sun]

gaming in general :}

[turbid maple]

might help if you shared the localization entry and the booster pack implementation

[long sun]

Canio gaming

Trading Card reading a book

Rebate would also pop off

[turbid maple]

thinking about it i don't remember the game ever crashing for failing to find a localiztion entry though hmmm

[lyric wadi]

another silly chal idea

Strength in Number

Deck starts with 52 2s
Start with Eternal Negative Cartomancer (if it's funnier to not have them that also works)
Playing Five or a Kind, Four of a Kind, or Flush Fives scores no point for the entire run

[long sun]

the humble Three of a Kind:

[dire palm]

Quick question: Can I give a Joker an ability that triggers when it's obtained?

[lyric wadi]

okay this is really stupid idea but

idk if this can even be implemented

[long sun]

mhmhm! lemme check

i know Juggler and Drunkard do that

same with being sold

[waxen mesa]

what is mode r

[lyric wadi]

but a chal called the Cure, where you start with 52 Stone Cards and the goal is to have 0 stone cards by the end

maybe custom Ante 8 Boss with "Mult is set to 0 if Full Deck contains any Stone Card"

[long sun]

add_to_deck = function(self, card, from_debuff)
  //...
end```

[lyric wadi]

Hypercuration

Start with normal deck
Custom Ante 8 Boss with "Mult is set to 0 if Full Deck contains 6 or more cards"

[dire palm]

Is that what I need?

[long sun]

mhmhm!

[dire palm]

Where do I put it?

[lyric wadi]

fuck custom Ante 8 boss basically means any arbitrary run-spanning goal can be implemented

[tepid crow]

just load using jokers/joker.lua, without the ./

[shell timber]

you'd have to ban director's cut and chicot but yeah

[waxen mesa]

doesnt help, still cannot be opened in mode r

[tepid crow]

can you show the new error?

[lyric wadi]

it's fine no one will miss chicot

[tepid crow]

huh 🤔

[lyric wadi]

is there to implement a joker that triggers when you sell other jokers or consumables

something like a Joekr that allows you to sell anything for double the normal sell price

[red flower]

context.selling_card

[lyric wadi]

so good for tarot spawning builds

thank u

oh yeah and how do you grab the price of the card that was just sold

[red flower]

context.card.cost or context.card.sell_cost depending on which price you mean

[lyric wadi]

thank u so much :3

will now try

[tepid crow]

mind doing a icacls "consumables/vegetables_cards.lua" in your cmd?

[waxen mesa]

uh

i mean i wouldnt

if you tell me how

XD

[tepid crow]

go to C:\Users\Arko\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\Mods/BalatroMod/ in your windows file explorer

then in the "url bar", replace the text with cmd and press enter

then input the command I gave you and show the output

[waxen mesa]

oh fuck i am stupid

it was in the .idea folder accidentall

y

[tepid crow]

that's impressive haha

weird error you got then; I would have expected some sort of "file not found" instead of "could not open in mode r"
oh interesting, that's the default error smods gives... but why so uninformative 🤔

[waxen mesa]

next error

need to clean up my room now

[tepid crow]

no clue but I've seen it before so just search this channel with some of the terms in the error

[ionic timber]

with the release of the new Steamodded update. Can I finally get rid of Talisman/are xchips natively supported ? Talisman mess up a lot of things with my game

[tepid crow]

xchips are supported by steamodded now yes

[ionic timber]

good to know !!

[lyric wadi]

Shorts Creator
When the Joker to its left is sold, add double the price sold to the sell price of the card on its right

aka Double It and Give It To The Next Joker

this is also a reference to how short form contents somethefuckhow rakes in so much money and also how money centric they can be

obviously phenomenal money generator

but you do have to keep buying and selling jokers to feed the money machine

which can be weird to your build because you're basically always wasting 3 slots for money generation and not contributing no mult

but it is a fuck ton of money

[modern kindle]

[quartz ravine]

Hi folks, anyone else having a problem using set_edition with a custom edition in the newest version of Steammodded?

[sacred lily]

i'm not having an issue but then again i'm using the newest beta as opposed to just edition

how do i make a Joker script trigger when a boss blind is selected?

[turbid maple]

G.GAME.blind.boss is set when boss blind and context.setting_blind is true when entering a blind

[pale temple]

weird why is it clipping like that

[manic rune]

https://streamable.com/usvs88

how do i get the uhhhh

destroying card part to be earlier

its currently in context.after rn

[vocal nacelle]

does anyone know how the hell to enable autocomplete? ive tried virtually everything, putting steammodded and balatro source code folders in the workspace, i've tried doing both that and putting my mod's folder in the workspace, and nothing has worked (im using vscode by the way)

[sacred lily]

thanks

[turbid maple]

and I'm almost pretty sure that's the step you want to check if it's getting destroyed by Madness or Ceremonial Dagger (which set card.getting_sliced or something like that)

I do not know if smod handles this for you

[sacred lily]

ok

is it possible for a joker to change the requirement needed for a blind? or does it need to be done in the base game's blind script or something

[minor furnace]

so I have something like this inside of one of my custom blind's disable effects, you could probably do something similar inside a Joker's calculate method if you set the context you want to do it for

G.GAME.blind.chip_text = number_format(G.GAME.blind.chips)```

[sacred lily]

ok cool

[wintry solar]

Show code

[minor furnace]

for context, this is also exactly what The Violet Vessel/Wall do on disable, so if there's an effect you already know exists in the game somewhere but you want to modify in some way for your own purposes, you can try to find where in the code the base game does it and try to understand how the effect works from there

[sacred lily]

probably there is somewhere in the game that does what i'm trying to do (reduce the required chips for the boss by 30%) but i don't know for sure

[minor furnace]

gotcha

yeah instead of doing a /3 then you'd just want to do *0.7

[sacred lily]

ok thanks

[turbid maple]

oh looks like they added a can_calculate check that handles cards being destroyed

neat

yeah disregard my prior comment about daggers

[manic rune]

bump

[wintry solar]

This is for jokers primarily

[hushed field]

the base values of a joker, unmodified by gameplay, are stored in the config, right? Are those accessible through card.config.extra, or wouldn't that work?

[turbid maple]

it works!

[gaunt phoenix]

i'm totally new to Balatro Modding, why does it show "+nil" and not a number ? (I want it to be "+10" / "+0")

[turbid maple]

I referenced it with self.config.extra and it seemed to workf o rme

rather happy I don't have to have another variable sitting around to store the initial value

[hushed field]

yeah, I thought it'd work to, haha. I'm assuming I'm making an error somewhere, so I'm trying to figure out where, because it returns both self.config.extra and card.config.extra as nil. But that's probably me missing a step in how the information is being passed around

[hushed field]

you're not passing the variables to your loc_txt properly in your loc_vars!

[simple mural]

Does anyone want to see the idea in #⚙・modding-general ?

[turbid maple]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            return {
                Xmult_mod = card.ability.extra.xmult,
                message = localize({ type = "variable", key = "a_xmult", vars = { card.ability.extra.xmult } }),

This seemed to work for me

[minor furnace]

this is going to be fun figuring out how to keep the UI from disappearing between waves

currently I'm doing some patch shenanigans in function Game:update_hand_played(dt) but I may need to do something else

It comes back when I reload the game, and the effects all work despite not visibly showing the text so uhhh at least it's functional?

[manic rune]

what do i need to do if i want to properly destroy a playing card

[stiff locust]

where tf is the chariot code

[stiff locust]

if context.destroying_card runs through every card like context.individual or context.repetition so now you can do logic on context.other_card to see if it's the card you wanna destroy

[gaunt phoenix]

Thanks it worked !

[stiff locust]

then you need to return a specific thing to destroy the current card

[manic rune]

huh

thought the event alone was enough 😭

so uh, this alone wont cut it?

[stiff locust]

no

[gaunt phoenix]

Can someone explain to me why does the condition is true whenever I play a High Card or not ? I probably misunderstood something but I can't find what

(I want the hand to be exactly a High Card)

[spiral thunder]

Hello, I'm a newb in coding, but is there a way to make this stake from Cruel Blinds show after the Ascendant stake from cryptid? I'm just talking about the visual. Any help is appreciated cause I'm stuck right now. Thanks.

[manic rune]

so uh, this should work right?

[stiff locust]

should do yeah

you don't need context.individual though

[manic rune]

o i see

should i be adding context.cardarea == G.play too?

[distant tendon]

does someone know what's wrong with my game? it crashes every time a modded boss blind starts

nevermind i figured it out

seems to be a problem with the Distro mod

[manic rune]

...doesnt seem to work

[wintry solar]

Poker hands is a table of all valid hands in the played cards, therefore high card is always present. You want to check context.scoring_name instead

[manic rune]

is this right?

[gaunt phoenix]

Okay thanks !

[manic rune]

it should be setting card.ability["card_to_destroy"] to the chosen card in this

[modest lake]

ello ya'll, I'm getting an error when I try to call the function Calc_dollar_bonus

[sacred lily]

hi. would this be the correct code for something to happen during a boss blind?

[green mica]

Ohhh that is exactly what I needed

thank you

[main chasm]

Does anyone know how to overwrite the ability of a card in the base game using steam modded? Whenever i use the take_ownership function and add a new calculate function it resolves the old effect and the new one.

SMODS.Joker:take_ownership('ceremonial',
    {
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.setting_blind and not self.getting_sliced and not context.blueprint then
            print("calculate resolved")
        end
    end
    })

[red flower]

without the comma after boss but yes

[sacred lily]

ok thanks

[modest lake]

this is the code that breaks everything

[wintry solar]

you need to return something, if it's not an effect table do return nil, true

[tall wharf]

-# what is that crop

[manic rune]

did you take a munch out of that

😭

[tepid crow]

tasty tasy code blocks

[tall wharf]

also 2 shaders

[modest lake]

wdym?

[charred hawk]

bruh that is pure schizo energy i love it

[sacred lily]

removed the comma but the game still throws up the same error

[tepid crow]

you're having a talisman incompat issue btw

[sacred lily]

pretty sure there is a "then" pretty close to it

[distant tendon]

i've been reading this thing for a while and i still have no idea what the issue could be can someone help me :d

[modest lake]

so then what should I be doing instead of what I'm doin?

[red flower]

the editor should tell you where the syntax error is

[tepid crow]

use to_big(nr) when setting instead of nr; also see https://github.com/Mysthaps/LobotomyCorp/blob/main/LobotomyCorp.lua#L376

[tall wharf]

is there a better way to define calculate function for editions

or is it just not

real

[main chasm]

thanks!

[manic rune]

oh for fuck sake, its the timing again, this prints immediately when i press PLAY

😭

[wintry solar]

What do you mean?

[manic rune]

if only theres a function to manually destroy a playing card without needing to go through that....

[wintry solar]

What are you trying to do?

[manic rune]

https://streamable.com/usvs88

basically, after playing a hand i want my joker to destroy a card (which should work like this below)

[tall wharf]

i read the docs

it does not say anything about calculate function

[wintry solar]

Every object uses calculate functions now

[tall wharf]

ah

ok i am just bad at coding

[wintry solar]

I think edition docs just got missed

They need a bit of a more complex check though because they deal with jokers and playing cards

[manic rune]

but uh, the thing is, the context.destroying_card seems to be in before or maybe even before before, how would i achieve this

[wintry solar]

It’s not

[modest lake]

so basically?

[wintry solar]

It’s after everything scores

[manic rune]

its not?

[tepid crow]

you're just meming (memeing?) with the cropping at this point right

[manic rune]

it prints 5 "aa" immediately when i play a hand though

[modest lake]

wdym? Is the code ok?

The heart was on purpose

[wintry solar]

Yes the game does all the calculation almost instantly and then does the animations

[tepid crow]

okay cute haha

[modern kindle]

Censorship is important all of us have only had original ideas >:[

[tepid crow]

The code looks fine to me, but I've never directly had to interact with talisman code, so I'm just giving you my best guesses. Try it out and see if it works I guess

[manic rune]

crap, how can i destroy the card after the scoring animation is done :(

[wintry solar]

By doing exactly what your code says 👍

[modest lake]

okie dokie 👍

[manic rune]

wh

but dont i need to go through context.destroying_card to destroy the playing card?

[wintry solar]

That’s what this does?

[tall wharf]

😭

i don't think this is the way to do it for editions

[manic rune]

theres this part in context.after that selects the card to be destroyed

[wintry solar]

It’ll be card.edition.extra iirc

Let me check

[manic rune]

kinda hoped it would somehow pass it to context.destroying_card after that

[wintry solar]

After is after everything

Select your card earlier

[tall wharf]

thank you

[manic rune]

oh

oh wait, so if i were to already destroy the card in context.destroying_card, the animations will still be fine right?

[tall wharf]

that is probably it

let's hope

[wintry solar]

Yes

[manic rune]

💔

[modern kindle]

What about this is against the server brother

I guess I don't get to ask eremel anything man

[manic rune]

my disabled ass thought it would remove the card from the playing hand immediately 😭

thanks :D

[wintry solar]

I have no idea about creating poker hands

[tall wharf]

thank you it works as intended now

[manic rune]

probably the "fuck with" if i have to guess

[wintry solar]

Maybe autumn would know?

[manic rune]

but i can still send it though, weird
