broken cliff is "reading enhancements" print working?

as i said previously, neither of them are working

#

which means only the contexts could be wrong

broken cliff Mar 11, 2025, 9:25 PM

#

ah. should've clarified

#

i thought only context.other_card didnt work

manic rune Mar 11, 2025, 9:26 PM

#

you can also change the size of the entire string

#

which also accounts for the uhh, {} thingies of the keywords

#

you can see how it adds the s:0.5 to {C:white}

#

am i insane for getting this to actually work :3

onyx sonnet Mar 11, 2025, 9:32 PM

#

bump

manic rune Mar 11, 2025, 9:32 PM

#

manic rune

#

accounts for multiple keywords too, of course

rough furnace Mar 11, 2025, 9:33 PM

#

btw the {} right before another thing is unessicary

#

anything in {} resets all values

manic rune Mar 11, 2025, 9:33 PM

#

some people told me that a few days ago, but i already added it in so it would be more of a hassle to remove that now 💔

rough furnace Mar 11, 2025, 9:34 PM

#

btw can it work on strings like {C:inactive}( Hello World! how are you)?

manic rune Mar 11, 2025, 9:34 PM

#

but i think it should still work, nevertheless

onyx sonnet Mar 11, 2025, 9:37 PM

#

manic rune

Oh thats sick as fuck

manic rune Mar 11, 2025, 9:38 PM

#

rough furnace btw can it work on strings like `{C:inactive}( Hello World! how are you)`?

i didnt consider about making it work for strings with the {} stuff already, since it would require a lot more checks

but you can also add those instead:

["C"] = "inactive": tells the function to color the whole string to inactive
["override_keywords"]: overrides all "C:" part of the keywords to inactive

#

its C, sorry for the typo :3

rough furnace Mar 11, 2025, 9:39 PM

#

manic rune i didnt consider about making it work for strings with the {} stuff already, sin...

it would be as simple as fidning the previous string with {}'s and no spaces and using that as your ending string

#

if your already looping the string its probably not that difficult

onyx sonnet Mar 11, 2025, 9:39 PM

#

@manic rune You've worked with quantum enhancements before, right? can i see a snippet of what their implementation looks like?

latent portal Mar 11, 2025, 9:40 PM

#

hi guys

#

im back!

#

so

#

good news and bad news

#

good news is i fixed the crash

#

bad news is my code now generates infinite events and forces the game to a complete halt

onyx sonnet Mar 11, 2025, 9:41 PM

#

oh i mustve confused you for someone else

#

lol my bad

manic rune Mar 11, 2025, 9:41 PM

#

rough furnace it would be as simple as fidning the previous string with {}'s and no spaces and...

so uh, if i use the current function with your string, it would be:

{C:inactive}( {C:white}Hello World!{} how are you)

the problem here is that how are you) would be left uncolored, so if i want it to keep the consistency, it would need to be {C:inactive} how are you)

latent portal Mar 11, 2025, 9:42 PM

#

nvm i missed a return true

rough furnace Mar 11, 2025, 9:42 PM

#

manic rune so uh, if i use the current function with your string, it would be: `{C:inactiv...

yes I know thats why you find the previous one

manic rune Mar 11, 2025, 9:43 PM

#

oh, so uh, you want the code to find the {C:inactive} at the beginning of the string, and put that before the how are you) (and basically every part which isnt colored)?

rough furnace Mar 11, 2025, 9:43 PM

#

that would make sense to me

#

also inheriting s probably makes sense

manic rune Mar 11, 2025, 9:45 PM

#

theres already vars in my function which allows you to change the C,X,s,... of the entire string

#

so i dont think its necessary

onyx sonnet Mar 11, 2025, 9:45 PM

#

i think ill just

#

re create the lucky card code

#

and then set the lucky card trigger bool for other_card to true

(by default, it colors the +/X(x) Mult/Chips part)

latent portal Mar 11, 2025, 9:47 PM

#

how do you use particles(self)

manic rune Mar 11, 2025, 9:49 PM

#

manic rune

but you can also change the color of those as well

#

this tells the code to change their C,X,s,... to what are set in the function even when they already have them, so in this case while normally it should be {C:mult}+5{}, since i set global C to "inactive", it is changed to {C:inactive}+5{}

#

you can see how X:mult is untouched, because i didnt declare global X

Yo question I made a new consumable type "Spell" and created a custom card, however it seems the game (or steammodded) loads it twice. Anyone would know why ?

SMODS.ConsumableType {
    key = 'Spell',
    collection_rows = { 5, 6 },
    primary_colour = G.C.SET.Tarot,
    secondary_colour = G.C.SECONDARY_SET.Tarot,
    inject_card = function(self, center)
        SMODS.ObjectType.inject_card(self, center)
        SMODS.insert_pool(G.P_CENTER_POOLS['Spell'], center)
    end,
    delete_card = function(self, center)
        SMODS.ObjectType.delete_card(self, center)
        SMODS.remove_pool(G.P_CENTER_POOLS['Spell'], center.key)

Sprite.role.draw_major

zealous glen Mar 11, 2025, 10:16 PM

#

minor magnet stupid question, what's a major?

Thunk wrote the documentation in Moveable.lua

#

If you set the major to the card

steady smelt Mar 11, 2025, 10:17 PM

#

ok this is very funny

zealous glen Mar 11, 2025, 10:17 PM

#

It should copy its transforms

#

Although now that I look into it

#

You aren’t creating the Sprite manually, are you?

#

Then the major should already be the card

#

Maybe it needs to be updated

#

With set_sprites?

minor magnet Mar 11, 2025, 10:18 PM

#

this is the full code

#

i just added the major (nothing changed tho)

zealous glen Mar 11, 2025, 10:19 PM

forgot this part

zealous glen Mar 11, 2025, 10:20 PM

#

I think that you are changing the size the wrong way

#

Try let me see

#

There’s a size transform

#

Since you’re scaling the card up by the same amount

#

You can just use it

#

I think it should be something like VT.scale = 1.2

you should use card pretty much all the time

self also isnt card; its whatever the parent class is

so it might not be the same as card

Question: how do you create random jokers regardless of rarity? I took the code for riff-raff and I replaced the rarity param with nil, but my testing only made commons. I could randomly generate a number between 0 and 3, but then jokers of modded rarities wouldn't be capable of showing up

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:20 AM

Believe me I did not write the emulator

That's way above my pay grade

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:21 AM

The joker boots the emulator, accesses input, draws to the screen, and then checks some ram locations to determine when you've won/lost. Fundamentally I didn't do anything Abt the NES hardware, I just used Balatro as the input and output devices

#

(well, I did alter the palette so it's more pastel to fit balatro's art style)

modern kindle Mar 12, 2025, 2:24 AM

#

regarding the public release of your mod, as i dont know luaNES at all
are you able to just publicly release with it in your mod? im unsure licensing wise what they allow so just wanted to make sure they didnt get big mad at you

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:24 AM

#

Okay so, objectively

#

The NES, yes. Definitely legal, and I have the license info for it in the source code

#

The fact that I currently have the roms themselves in the source code......................................

modern kindle Mar 12, 2025, 2:25 AM

#

yea that was another thing i was gonna mention

#

you could have it look for the roms after install and have people just manually put their own in, this way you arent at fault

and instead if it doesnt detect a rom itll just run some other default game you wont need to worry about

tardy wind Mar 12, 2025, 2:26 AM

#

modern kindle you *could* have it look for the roms after install and have people just manuall...

this is the right way

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:26 AM

#

So like if you ask me, legal precedent against roms online is bullshit, big advocate for piracy due the failure of corporations to preserve games

modern kindle Mar 12, 2025, 2:27 AM

#

i totally agree, but unfortunately big corpo will not care

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:27 AM

#

For the sake of any personal ramifications, obviously it's a free project, for a free game

#

And yeah I've thought about just asking the player to put the roms in a side folder themselves

#

Which would be an easy solution

#

The joker works without the roms anyway, it's both a regular joker and you play the embedded game to win a free joker

turbid maple Mar 12, 2025, 2:28 AM

#

If I want a UI node to be drawn throughout the entire run where do I put this into?

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:28 AM

#

So I could just have the joker function with the playable game if it has the game file, otherwise it's just a regular joker anyway

modern kindle Mar 12, 2025, 2:28 AM

#

ah thats fair yea
i figured if you wanted to duplicate (albeit lessen) the experience you could just make a lesser game yourself to fall back for

but if it still works then that saves you a whole lot of hassle

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:29 AM

#

I probably won't, since it's a specific reference. The three games in the emulator (Donkey Kong, Dragon's Lair, and TMNT Arcade) are from the JoJo fic that it's based on

modern kindle Mar 12, 2025, 2:29 AM

#

ah icic

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:29 AM

#

Though I could have some alternate freeware game, it'd kinda lessen it versus just not having it

#

Regardless I'll figure the best course of action when I release it CattoBlush

modern kindle Mar 12, 2025, 2:30 AM

#

i believe in you, youre doing fantastic

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:30 AM

#

Now ough, I wish the vanilla particle system was better

modern kindle Mar 12, 2025, 2:31 AM

#

ive really been procrastinating getting into shaders
i want to but man, thats a whole load of effort

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:31 AM

#

You can't have particles in global transform space, only locally relative to the parent, which is harder

#

I might have to use the Love2D one since there's a proprietary reduced one in Balatro itself, it doesn't use the Love one

#

Oh yeah and if you want to get into shaders, STEAL

#

Steal code so much

#

I don't innately understand a lot of graphics math, at least not on the top of my head, but stolen code is a good starting point to figure it out

#

Which is how I've made most shader things work so far

#

Also having used Unity ShaderGraph before, since the visual element helped me conceptualize what kinda things are going on with the values

modern kindle Mar 12, 2025, 2:33 AM

#

yea thats how i intiially learned how to make my jokers was just delving and stealing from the examples, then i started mixing and matching

#

i hadnt messed with lua for like, 6 or so years cause i did it alot for gmod back in like 2014 onwards

chrome widget Mar 12, 2025, 2:34 AM

#

this is my first Lua project, I worked professionally with Typescript for a few years which is similarish

#

So it wasn't too hard to transfer into, but there's still quirks I haven't quite figured out

modern kindle Mar 12, 2025, 2:34 AM

i mean hey, i think youre doin great thus far

now for the emulator you just have to run balatro within balatro and youll have peaked

i wanted to make a joker that gets stronger the more duplicates of it you have

#

and i can make it check for its own key

#

but i've just now realised and thinking about what to do if it's being copied by blueprint/brainstorm

#

do i count it as a duplicate and therefore it gets buffed?

sturdy compass Mar 12, 2025, 4:36 AM

#

I think blueprint should apply whatever effect it gives but to not count it as a duplicate

lyric wadi Mar 12, 2025, 4:36 AM

or will the blueprint just copy the mult but not the self buffing ability

#

ok

for 3 * mult for each individual Monke yes

it probably works

so 1 monke is 5 mult x 1 copies x applied 1 times = 5 mult
2 monke is 5 mult x 2 copies x applied 2 times = 20 mult

3 monke is 5 mult x 3 copies x applied 3 times = 45 mult

lyric wadi 3 monke is 5 mult x 3 copies x applied 3 times = 45 mult

i have this snippet for giving money based on how many of a joker there are, but you should be able to adapt it however you like (just use a calculate function, change the key used in SMODS.find_card, and adjust variables however you like)

calc_dollar_bonus = function(self, card)
        if #SMODS.find_card('j_yacbm_antenna') <= 1 then
            return card.ability.extra.money
        else
            local bonus = (card.ability.extra.money + (card.ability.extra.extra * (#SMODS.find_card('j_yacbm_antenna') - 1)))
            if bonus > 0 then return bonus end

    end

I do a bit of digital arting and I wholeheartedly believe AI is a waste of an excessive amount of resources.

AI art as an insult to itself is exactly where AI art belongs.

tall tangle Mar 12, 2025, 5:47 AM

Example: AI Joker.
It changes every round and is often entirely unhelpful.

Example: AI generated card (Dungeons and Degenerate Gamblers)
Assigns a random value and makes a copy in the opponent's played cards (inherently dangerous and unhelpful)

That's the correct applications of AI.

Insulting AI.

AI Joker
Every round, your selection limit is random (between 1 card and 8 cards, skewed towards being lower)

(because Four Fingers, but the fingers are horribly deformed by AI)

D&DG works differently. It's blackjack but roguelike/dungeon crawl. You can't get rid of it until you get to a certain event that lets you get rid of cards.
