The hell do you mean that works
I have a whole different way of getting that

[manic rune]

...i mean, if it works it works

[modern kindle]

I'm about to be such a hater in this world

[native zinc]

oh i posted this and instantly realised my stupidity so

[manic rune]

this is what im using to hook to "context.after" rn

:3

[open aspen]

for getting poker chips right

[manic rune]

mhm

the uhh

[rapid stag]

figured it out.

[paper zealot]

da-ba-dee, da-ba-di

[minor furnace]

blueprint 👀

[rapid stag]

it only half-did it because i did a patch wrong, too

[minor furnace]

also, cirno mention

fumo plush

[manic rune]

i have cirno fumo :3

[modern kindle]

mind if i ask what you did just so i can fucka round with the colors

[rapid stag]

are you using the lovely patcher? or something that at least dumps the resulting game.lua so you can see what your relevant variables look like

[modern kindle]

i mean yea, we all use lovely as far as im aware everything else is outdated aint it

[wide narwhal]

okay so it now no longer crashes and the original issue has been fixed, but now a new problem has appeared where the joker will increase its value and then destroy itself anyway, anyone know why this is happening?

[mystic river]

you appear to have misspelled repetition, that seems like it might affect something

[noble schooner]

oh yeah, that might be the problem

[rapid stag]

so in mods\lovely\dump you should find a game.lua which is basically a copy of your active game.lua with all your current mods post patching

you're looking for, in function Game:main_menu(change_context), the function call G.SPLASH_BACK:define_draw_steps().

and that function call should outline two colour values, something like colour_1 (the outside swirl colour) and colour_2 (the inside swirl colour).

and for me, it was

{name = 'colour_1', ref_table = G.C, ref_value = 'RED'},
{name = 'colour_2', ref_table = G.C, ref_value = 'BLUE'},

and i basically did what trance does as breeze mentioned earlier #💻・modding-dev message and patched them both to instead be

{name = 'colour_1', ref_table = G.C.SPLASH, ref_value = 1},
{name = 'colour_2', ref_table = G.C.SPLASH, ref_value = 2},

you can patch them to be hardcoded colours instead if you want, but my mod has a config option to toggle the colours on or off, so i have a Game:main_menu() hook in my main lua file. before i call the original function, i swap out G.C.SPLASH[1] & G.C.SPLASH[2] with my custom colours if the config option i mentioned is enabled (and if it's off, i just set them to red and blue)

[wide narwhal]

holy shit that was it, i would have literally never caught that

[modern kindle]

awesome, thank you very much

[wide narwhal]

thank you so much, actual lifesaver

[paper zealot]

There's also the Trance mod if you just want to look at funny colours without incorporating them into your own mod

[daring fern]

Any help on this?

[minor furnace]

anyone know off the top of their head what global variable the deck/suit customization options are in?

[agile thistle]

the friends of jimbo stuff?

[rapid stag]

G.SETTINGS.CUSTOM_DECK
G.SETTINGS.CUSTOM_DECK.Collabs

[agile thistle]

ahh swung too late

collab definitions themselves are just in G.COLLABS

[minor furnace]

I'm looking to do something if a specific skin (my own) is set on a specific suit

let's try G.SETTINGS.CUSTOM_DECK.Collaps.Spades

[rapid stag]

you should be able to find out how your skins are referenced internally by print(tprint())ing G.SETTINGS.CUSTOM_DECK.Collabs

[minor furnace]

I'll look at that then

thanks!

G.SETTINGS.CUSTOM_DECK.Collabs.Spades was exactly what I was looking for

[glad osprey]

I hate love this

also bump

[manic rune]

you are supposed to

return{
  dollars = card.ability.extra.money
}

[dense adder]

oh yeah i had that originally i changed that while debugging just to see if that would work

should have reverted before posting

[manic rune]

its likely because

in the context, "context.other_card" isnt anything

so its just nil, i think?

[dense adder]

i think so, but what would be a way to check the cards in the hand for enhancements

[manic rune]

use this context instead

it will let you use context.other_card

-# ignore the code inside please :3, i was testing smt

[dense adder]

thank you

[sour marsh]

is there an easy way edit a joker when it's created in the shop?

i want to give every joker a random value when it's in the shop that i will use later

[minor furnace]

awesome, now my abomination of an enhancement's color can match my deck skin

I'm getting to the point where I wonder how many of my patches could have alternatively been implemented by hooks... and I don't want to think about how much refactoring that would take me

[daring fern]

Does anybody know if this is possible or not?

[wide narwhal]

it works!! fun fact: the reason it's called the Moa Egg is because moa eggs were found to be the most fragile kind of bird egg

another fun fact: the moa is extinct, which i did not know until like 10 minutes ago, which makes the message upon the joker getting destroyed very funny

[shy wagon]

okay so I think that now I've defined what my card is and what it does, now how do I actually make the card an object that can spawn in packs?

[glad osprey]

the fuck is a toml

[shy wagon]

a file type I think

oh

[shy wagon]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOML

[gaunt thistle]

toml is a type of frog

[scarlet spire]

is there a way to detect when any probability occurs?

doesn't matter if it succeeds or fails, just if it happens

[glad osprey]

hook into pseudorandom would be your best chance

[scarlet spire]

hmm, that would be everything, even without the 1 in x descriptor

thinking about it, I can probably only hardcode that

unless i'm forgetting something

[shy wagon]

I'm trying to make a tarot card that makes a selected playing card's edition foil

(like aura but slightly better)

    set = "Tarot",
    key = "mosaicTarot",
    pos = {
        x = 0,
        y = 0
    },
    loc_txt = {
        name = "Mosaic",
        text = {
            "Add Mosaic",
            "to selected card"
        }
    },
    atlas = 'mosaicTarot',
    cost = 4,
    pools =
        {
            ["Consumeables"] = true,
            ["Tarot"] = true,
        },
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = true,
    can_use = function(self, card)
        if G.STATE ~= G.STATES.HAND_PLAYED and G.STATE ~= G.STATES.DRAW_TO_HAND and G.STATE ~= G.STATES.PLAY_TAROT or any_state then
            if G.hand and (#G.hand.highlighted == 1) and G.hand.highlighted[1] and (not G.hand.highlighted[1].edition) then return true end
        end
    end,
    use = function(card, area, copier)
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            trigger = 'after',
            delay = 0.4,
            func = function()
                    G.hand.highlighted[1]:set_edition(foil, true)
                return true
            end
        }))
    end,
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue)
        info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = G.P_CENTERS.e_foil
        return {}
    end
})```

currently it does nothing

not even crash the game

the part where you can only use it with one card selected works fine

it just doesn't apply foil

[tall salmon]

i think it has to be a table

[shy wagon]

it plays the use animation but nothing happens

[tall salmon]

{foil = true}

instead of just foil

[scarlet spire]

I think that's for stickers? a card can only have one edition

I think you're just missing the prefix, which would make it e_foil

[tall salmon]

i wrote this and it works

[scarlet spire]

I guess try it

[tall salmon]

does anyone know a way to trigger an effect after a consumable resolves?

[tall salmon]

the way im currently doing it with context.consumeable triggers before the actual consumable effect happens

[tall salmon]

nice

[shy wagon]

thanks a bunch

now to make the actual custom edition

[tall salmon]

for example this just counts the sixes in your hand after using a consumable but when using things like cryptid or strength on 5s it spits out the amount before the card was used

[native zinc]

eh ???

[red flower]

is h_dollars an enhancement?

[minor furnace]

all enhancements should be prefixed with m

[native zinc]

oh . dang it documentation

[minor furnace]

(also you don't need the == true)

that's redundant, since the boolean returned by SMODS.has_enhancement() is already what you want

[daring fern]

Is doing something like this possible?

[minor furnace]

Is it just for aesthetics or is there something else you want to do with that?

[shy wagon]

85: unexpected symbol near '='
no idea what's wrong with this line

[daring fern]

It's because i'm basically making buffed vanilla jokers along with other things and I want to have the jokers be in the joker order of the collection.

[native zinc]

needed to context.other_card too

waorks now

[minor furnace]

You could organize them in that order in your file then

[daring fern]

No, because if i'm making other jokers, it'll look weird.

[minor furnace]

Even if you put your own other jokers all the way at the end?

[marble flint]

you're missing a comma after the previous end

and actually you're also missing another end (to end the function)

[shy wagon]

ah thanks

I wish notepad++ had function-end matches highlighted like it does for brackets

[daring fern]

I want the jokers in the order of when they were made.

[marble flint]

that's generally why people keep consistent indentation for things. the function body currently has one tabstop too few, if it were intended this would be easier to spot

[shy wagon]

fair enough

[quasi comet]

How do you format stuff inside of compat_exceptions? I can't get my sticker to be incompatible with other stickers

[rapid stag]

it is doneeeeeeeeeee

and with this and much more out of the way, i sleep

[red flower]

i feel like i should make my own object at this point lol

[plush cove]

that would probably be a wise move

[daring fern]

Is adding new entries to the collection possible?

[pale venture]

Does anyone know if there's a way to have custom playing cards (custom suit/rank) that don't follow the "X of Y" naming convention?

interested in making a joker counterpart to seals

got SMODS.DrawStep figured out, but SMODS.GameObject is beyond me.

i know autumncircus had something like this

(also will have a mechanic that i won't reveal now)

[tall wharf]

:>

[hushed field]

I'm working on a consumable that destroys all consumables of the same type and gains their abilities. They're all custom consumables so I have full access to the code without too much fuckery. If I wanna avoid hardcoding everything, I should probably move their functionality so separate functions, so I can have the code call those, rather than find a way for it to activate fake versions of those items 🤔

I thought I was going to arrive at a question there, but I guess I wasn't

[zinc forum]

I mean I think there's something there

I don't know how SMODS do that kinda thing but couldn't you store each calculate function in like, an array or something?

[zealous glen]

Rubber ing

[hushed field]

I haven't played around with calling calculate functions of other items by storing them, I'm not sure if it's something that'd work. I guess it's worth trying to just to see if it's a thing to add to the toolbox even if I don't use it for this

[tall wharf]

why is my config not "saving" 😭

[zealous glen]

Illusion of choice

[red flower]

what I'm doing right now for ability transfers in my mod is store a table of object keys and config values of all the transferred abilities and call a custom calculate function on the center

[hushed field]

I guess I could store the triggering context, a function that contains the effect, and the strength of the effect in an array and pass those on

[hushed field]

That sounds like the most effective way to do that for sure. Do you mind if there's some code I can look at? I promise I won't Almanac it 😛

[red flower]

you can copy my code all you want

gimme a sec to find it

[hushed field]

Your code is protected by being so specific that it'd be insane to just copy over, haha. But it is the giant's shoulders on which Kino stands, haha

[red flower]

here are the functions and hooks https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/a8053a1d270fd34fef4e8e43085cfd48076fd4d9/src/effects.lua#L277

and here are the definitions for the center functions, you can probably just use the regular calculate instead of making a custom one if you want to just copy the whole effect https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/a8053a1d270fd34fef4e8e43085cfd48076fd4d9/src/monsters.lua#L24

[pale venture]

So there's no way to do it without enhancing the card

[hushed field]

every time I see your commit I get the ache to clean up my own code base and document it this well, damn

Thanks N', intensely appreciated as always 😄

[daring fern]

How would one go about adding a new entry to the collection?

[hushed field]

I think I should do a real major rewrite for Confections if I actually want this to be properly modular. For now I guess I'm just going to hack it, and then rework the entire system at some point. I've been wanting to turn it into a stand-alone mod too, so that's good motivation for that, haha

[tall wharf]

what is wrong here

still does the same thing

[next timber]

Would it hypothetically be possible for a mod to use the seed to predict things? Like could I make a consumable that tells you how many booster packs itll take for a specific joker to appear in one?

[hushed field]

yes! I haven't looked into exactly how, but I've checked to see if the concept of a reroll prediction joker was possible, and it definitely is. The only thing I'm not sure about is whether booster packs are fully predictable, or if player choices can change the outcome

But you probably wanna look at the code for seed analyser extensions

[next timber]

Awesome

[red flower]

ah

that worked i think

how about dynatext not updating

[next timber]

WHY IS THE CODE FOR THE SOUL SEED ANALYSER MINIFIED

WHYYY

[red flower]

hmm no idea

[red flower]

it's creating new dynatext objects without destroying them probably

[prisma loom]

Need some help with the code structuring. Is everything corrrect here?

(that's an enhancement)

[cerulean rose]

the upgrade message overwrites the xmult message

why is 'antimatter' the rng key?

[prisma loom]

its the name

of the enhancement

[cerulean rose]

it seems like the scoring ability only applies when the probability hits

[prisma loom]

yes

thats the issue atm

its tied to it

Im not really sure how I could separate them

[cerulean rose]

you can use extra in your return to specify another message to come after

good example

although for scaling you should check how basegame jokers do it

[prisma loom]

One question: do I need the elseif part?

[cerulean rose]

the whole structure here is super weird

[prisma loom]

I added it to makes sure the Xmult message would be displayed even if probability fails

[prisma loom]

Im a noob at this

[cerulean rose]

well in that case it's matching the wrong if block

and its condition is the same as a surrounding if

[prisma loom]

is that incorrect? since I need the card to give u xmult when it scores

[cerulean rose]

ur checking context.cardarea == G.play and context.main_scoring twice

[prisma loom]

so, the whole elseif part is redundant then?

[cerulean rose]

yeah

[tall wharf]

i need better description lol\

[dire palm]

How can I go through the scoring hand with a boss blind?

[prisma loom]

So this code now triggers an upgrade and Xmult message when probability hits, right? In that case what context should I use for a block of code that is activated when probability doesnt hit? (the one that gives current Xmult of the card)

[cerulean rose]

tbh you should handle the upgrading and the xmult application separately

[prisma loom]

that's what Im trying to figure out how to do

Do you have a specific example in mind?

anything similar

[cerulean rose]

every scaling joker ever

[frosty dock]

what even is card:scale_value

[prisma loom]

that's my teammate's custom function ig?

i dont think it's relevant here

[frosty dock]

not sure how you'd need a custom function for that but alright

[cerulean rose]

scalaedouble scale r smthn?

[prisma loom]

Im using it for code consistency

no other reason

[cerulean rose]

kid named +:

[prisma loom]

(why they use it idk)

[frosty dock]

anyways

scaling jokers usually scale in context.before

if they don't scale based off cards scored, at least

[cerulean rose]

oh btw aure while ur here im ripping my skull apart at this

[frosty dock]

uh

[cerulean rose]

trying to implement something like stamps from autumncircus

[frosty dock]

you can't have an obj_table/obj_buffer in a class derived from one that already has them

[prisma loom]

the thing is that Antimatter cards scale when it's their turn to score (in order left to right, not all simultaneously) and they upgrade before giving xmult

[cerulean rose]

should i extend SMODS.GameObject directly?

[prisma loom]

So what's the context then?

[frosty dock]

we could use some card modifier type API

[zealous glen]

else although here you might be able to move the return outside

[cerulean rose]

yeah, this is sorely needed

sticker spoofing is a mess

adding anything to cards is a mess

[frosty dock]

agreed, the current system doesn't offer a good way to do this

[cerulean rose]

shame autumn left

wouldve been awesome to (borrow) their code

[zealous glen]

I did want to extend the bonus chips to Jokers and stuff

[cerulean rose]

with permission of course

[zealous glen]

And I had done it in 0.9.8

With autumn’s code as reference

And I probably still have its 1.0 port

i can see the reddit post 'My coworker was playing Balatro during our morning stand-up. Should they pivot their build?'

[frosty dock]

it's G.GAME

[zealous glen]

I mean I had it working (for some parameters), I think just a UI was missing

[tall wharf]

all caps

[zealous glen]

And I had done UI, it was just messy compared to what SMODS usually does

[cerulean rose]

tbh whatever the hell i was doing will wait until this is done

[cerulean rose]

strange pencil 0.3.0 forever delayed

[tall wharf]

person

[zealous glen]

I did make a PR for a new context yesterday

[prisma loom]

I'm almost here, everything works properly except card doesnt give it 'base' xmult if probability fails. Ho do I separate it from probability hit? I didnt fully unerstand which 'return' to put outside

[hushed field]

I really wanna figure out UI properly just because I desparately feel it'd be a very handy thing for SMODS to have a standard set up to create the below consumables card area, and make it a carousel, but alas every time I do UI a part of my perishes and I became a more hollow man

[zealous glen]

For cards being added to the deck

oh wait i did that i just typed it wrong in chat lol

G.GAME also is not worknig

[zealous glen]

You put the else in the wrong place

[frosty dock]

Today feels like a good day to merge a bunch of PRs and inevitably inadvertently break something

[zealous glen]

I might make more PRs soon

I’m doing them as I implement stuff for my mod

So that everyone can use them

[brazen notch]

Steamodded goes up in flames after 2 merged PRs and promptly explodes

[red flower]

I'm just adding a chain of extra to every calculate return lol

[zealous glen]

What I have in mind is fixing Orbital Tag and a context for abilities that activate when destroying Jokers

I might get sidetracked by Tags though

Because I wanted to implement one for the first time

[brazen notch]

Implementing a new tag system? or just making a new tag for your mod

[zealous glen]

New Tag for my mod

But idk how Tag contexts work

I implemented a new Joker context and Idk if it works with Tags

[frosty dock]

for the card_added PR, I thought I'd have to be concerned about cards changing enhancements, but fortunately excluding playing cards from this context avoids that issue completely

it does seem to be targeting code from other patches in smods though, which isn't great

[brazen notch]

well,. isn't there already something for adding playing cards? for Hologram?

[frosty dock]

yeah that's why it's excluded

[zealous glen]

[brazen notch]

that's nice

[frosty dock]

but add_to_deck gets repeat calls when changing enhancements

which is what I thought might be an issue, but isn't

[prisma loom]

Should I've to put end to first 'if' block and then add 'else'? I'm a little lost

[brazen notch]

scale_value?

[prisma loom]

not relevant here

[zealous glen]

The else branches off the if block it’s connected to. If you want an alternative action when the probability check fails, you need to attach the else to that block

[brazen notch]

i'm curious about it

[prisma loom]

my teammate's custom function

my guess

idk

[prisma loom]

isnt it attached here? @zealous glen

wait

I think i understand it now

sorry for rushing to the conclusions
I was not familiar with this game

[zealous glen]

If you are using an automatic Lua formatter it will format the blocks via alignment

[prisma loom]

Still connected incorrectly?

[long sun]

i'm able to do context.card.config.center.set == "Planet", but how can i do this with a check for all consumables?

[next timber]

ok what am i doing wrong here that the hand size isnt being set

[cerulean rose]

yup, now it procs for every other context

[daring fern]

Still looking for an answer on this.

On how to do it.

[tall wharf]

my genius it's almost frightening

[prisma loom]

I found the right place!

i think

[long sun]

oop no nevermind, i figured it out ^^

...i think. is it if context.selling_card and context.card.config.center.set ~= "Joker" then?

[tall wharf]

hello ghost

[long sun]

haiii :D

[tall wharf]

i am working on improvements to wildcard

i will have to do UI

😭

[long sun]

✨

Wild card stan!! :D

[tall wharf]

-# going absolutely bonkers

[manic rune]

will this have side-effects?

[manic rune]

its supposed to run somewhere at the "context.after" state

it works, but im worried there will be jokers which use draw_from_deck_to_hand

[rotund ridge]

alright fellas i have been trying to get this working but idk wtf im doing but i want to shoot myself so please can you tell me whats going on

[rotund ridge]

crash logs are saying its something on line 56

[cerulean rose]

scroll up homie

[cerulean rose]

your missing an end to close your function

[prisma loom]

should it be like this then?

branching off pseudorandom

[cerulean rose]

actually you should combine if pseudorandom and if xmult<3 into a single if

and that on the else of it

[prisma loom]

correct?

[rotund ridge]

im jumping off my window (boss bind refence)

[cerulean rose]

suggest blinds for a house tour

[zealous glen]

I mean you don’t have to

It depends on the effect you want

And if it gives xMult anyways, you could avoid having two returns

But two returns might be easier to write

[prisma loom]

IT ALL WORKS NOW

finally

[prisma loom]

I'm gonna do it next

[dense vector]

Peak cinema though

[timid star]

im not ready

oops math problem that didn't remove cards that gives 0 or negative chips

[knotty copper]

Couple questions about Malverk

1. I got these errors on the config texture pack screen and not sure what I did wrong, Is it because I only made an alttexture object of only a couple of things and not all?
2. Is it possible to change it so the default joker that appears in areas such as the editions page to be replaced the default joker of a texture pack?

[warped marsh]

Omg we have the same cursor

But also holy moly that’s so cool

Did you make this?

[timid star]

yea im working on the blind rn

[wintry solar]

That’s just your alt texture objects missing proper localization

[timid star]

the card skins aren't mine thou

[warped marsh]

I love the theming of it

It’s so so so sick

Like it feels tense(?)

Which like with the limit of Balatro is impressive to replicate

[daring fern]

Can one only put extra collection entries in the "other" tab?

[knotty copper]

So I have to add the localization = true to it?
How to do you properly add the text?

[timid star]

the music isn't in-game rn im just playing it over the recording but this iss the final boss of undertale sooo

🔥 🔥

[zealous glen]

will you add the damage step to balatro

[red flower]

the damage step is represented by people forgetting to order their jokers before scoring

[hushed field]

hahahaha

the damage step happens whenever I walk over some lego, right?

[dire palm]

So, I made a boss blind that acts on G.play.cards. Is there a way I could make it act on only the scoring cards instead?

[rotund ridge]

yo @cerulean rose your the goat frfr

[modern kindle]

good schmorning chat

have we gottent he goat blind stuff released this day

[red flower]

yeah

[modern kindle]

hell yea

[manic rune]

hi di

[modern kindle]

bepis
todays the day aint it

your famous beta test

[manic rune]

today is indeed the day!

its not that famous

💔

[modern kindle]

i wish you the ultimate success

to me ur famous

♥

[manic rune]

❤️

im just gonna see feedback if the gameplay loop is nice, since its more of a concept rn due to how many stuff r missing from my mod

like uhh, not all the relics are added yet

currently in an online class rn, so the mod will be out an hour later or so

[modern kindle]

after some assistance regarding splash color changes ive just been fuckin with those now, added a bunch of colors and have the game pick a random 2 each time you launch

been a fun lil time

[modern kindle]

itll be in the top 5 of released mods because youre awsum

[manic rune]

i want to add nice boss blinds which interfere with more than just scoring

soo that will also be a top priority after getting the playtest out

[modern kindle]

yea im hoping i can do some neat shit blind wise as well

[manic rune]

i want at least one boss blind to be finished for the full release

so that pep can have a taste of what boss blinds in my mod will be like

:3

[modern kindle]

with how much content you have you can definitely do alot that fw your own stuff

[manic rune]

-# i also want to add unique small and big blinds too, but i dont think that will be nice when you combine my mod with others

the sad thing about my mod is that its a standalone mod, so it will definitely outshine jokers from most mods

kinda unavoidable

[tall wharf]

[modern kindle]

yea unfortunately that be the wave at times

but i figure if the mod is fun enough people wont need other mods anyway

[manic rune]

but maybe if i balance my mod thoroughly then vanilla jokers can still be used

[hushed field]

I'm excited to try it at least Bepis! And to be as nitty gritty with my feedback as you want me to be 😛

[manic rune]

id love specific feedbacks lol

[manic rune]

no aiko, they are supposed to be fun, not a mental torture method

[red flower]

yay

[manic rune]

is that a new context

[red flower]

yes

[manic rune]

fire

[hushed field]

wait did the boss blind stuff hit smods today?

[modern kindle]

it sure did

[red flower]

yes

[hushed field]

Time to add darth vader ig

[modern kindle]

so what, you just lose

lmfao

[manic rune]

using that with blind expander is gonna be so fucking cool

🔥

[frosty dock]

consider adding area checks

[quartz ravine]

Hey guys, do you think this is asking too much of a tarot card? Like is it too expensive, gameplay wise?

Select three cards. The first is destroyed and the other two are given a special edition

[manic rune]

-# im gonna forever glaze blind expander

[manic rune]

it should be {C:chips}+5{} Chips btw

[tall wharf]

OHMAGAH

[red flower]

oh yeah i had it but i removed it trying to figure out why cards were not appearing in hand (it was cartomancer)

[manic rune]

-# but also, i dont really understand the effect

[frosty dock]

fair enough

[hushed field]

my current notes have him making it so your current hand doesn't score, but I'm for sure going to need to find something more interesting, haha

[quartz ravine]

my effect or something else, sorry

[manic rune]

cant you just make it so you press the button and then a key on your keyboard

and it becomes that letter?

[tall wharf]

this is a test

[manic rune]

i think its kinda inconvenient cycling through every letter

oh i see

:3

[quartz ravine]

John, coulw we make it so Control + something restarts the game, rather than holding M

[frosty dock]

looks at #550

[hushed field]

I wouldn't say it's expensive. It's a hanged man + two cards giving an edition. You need to be quite far into deck fixing before sacrificing a card for a benefit becomes a hard choice

[frosty dock]

ideally I'd like it to be configurable, but just adding a non-conflicting keybind works for now i guess

[dire palm]

Why am I being ignored? 😢

[manic rune]

context.scoring_hand

[modern kindle]

could mix some effects, have a cerulean bell like effect for the force, then mess with other things

[frosty dock]

I'm not sure what you mean by acting on cards

[manic rune]

since blinds have calculation now (i think), you can just use that

[dire palm]

The boss blind doesn't have access to context apparently.

[frosty dock]

as of today, blinds support calculate functions

[manic rune]

^

update your smods

and go wild :3

[frosty dock]

but more information on what you want to do would be helpful

[frosty dock]

btw you can add a debuff_text

[hushed field]

haha my main weakness of knowing jack shit about star wars strikes again , haha. I might go for something related to joker destruction, as that is somewhat tied to star wars in my notes. Though I mainly want something that feels force chokey, but besides moving jokers, I don't know what that'd be. Though, as I type this, maybe I can have him force a joker into slot #1 and weaken it to half strength each hand 🤔 I have the systems for that, after all

[dire palm]

I am making my boss decrease the rank of all scoring cards. My code is working on all cards played currently.
I just needed a way to affect only the scoring cards and not all card played. But it should be easy with the SMOD update.

[modern kindle]

that would be neat

also youre making a freaking mod on movies, go watch star wars smh

[frosty dock]

yeah that sounds straightforward with blind calc

[hushed field]

i'm pretentious, Star Wars is below me. tbh I've seen Star Wars IV, just ages ago and I barely remember anything from it, haha

[modern kindle]

very fair honestly, oh shit i actually havent fully checked do you have any lotr content tossed in there yet
thats some goated cinema

[manic rune]

is it bad that i dont watch any movie at all

💀

i havent even watched titanic

[hushed field]

Nope, I haven't figured out an idea that's simple enough, haha. But I love the trilogy

I've also not seen Titanic. There's a lot of famous movies, it's difficult to have seen them all 😛

[red flower]

uhhh is it normal that it patches it as G.GAME.blind:get_loc_debuff_text()()

[modern kindle]

youd also win my heart if you can get mel gibsons braveheart in there :b

[manic rune]

magic man speaking magic words

[quartz ravine]

Wow! Did you know that Oops All Sixes stack with each other?

[manic rune]

-# yes

[modern kindle]

yes

[red flower]

yes

[hushed field]

smh, he was the 22nd joker I added, my guy. He's been there since Kino's been on downloadable 😛

[manic rune]

-# i thought thats common knowledge?

[frosty dock]

i still suck at regex, wow

[quartz ravine]

insert the xkcd comic here

[modern kindle]

thats my goat right there
that movie is my favorite

[frosty dock]

i forgot to escape a set of brackets

[red flower]

oh is it a regex pattern

[hushed field]

I added it because I needed a movie with Heart in the name ofc, haha

[quartz ravine]

Oh wow, so this is not the syntax to spawn a regular card in a booster pack!

local getCard = create_card("Card", G.pack_cards, nil, nil, true, true, nil, "foxNegation")

[long urchin]

attempting to make another joker and this crash happens when i try to hover over it after starting a run - Not before when im in the menu. I used steammodded's example mods castle which works, so idk whats going on. Any ideas?

[manic rune]

-# what the hell is that indentation???

you really played a Straight hand with that one 💔

[tall wharf]

literally better calc 2.3

[long urchin]

its the discord ui, thats why i also provided images

[quartz ravine]

Hi John, quick question

If I wanted to spawn a regular standard playing card, which set would that be?

[manic rune]

i actually have a joker which does the same, but connected it to context.end_of_round instead

[frosty dock]

Pretty sure SMODS.create_card doesn't support playing cards

[manic rune]

i dont think theres a need for hooks to achieve that kinda "reset suit/rank depending on your deck" effect

[frosty dock]

you can try with 'Default' or 'Enhanced' though

[hushed field]

And here I was thinking it was an ally. Smh

[native zinc]

how do i detect if there are two queens in the hand? im trying a for loop and its going badly

[long urchin]

the hook is there so that it runs the reset command when the run starts, like it does with mail in rebate and idol

[quartz ravine]

Here, I have logic to check how many tens there are, you could modify this to get started

[long urchin]

without it, every time you pick it up itll always start as an ace

[manic rune]

mhm, theres no need for hooks for that either

i use add_to_deck

to reset it when its added to the joker area

:3

[long urchin]

but what about when its in the shop?

[manic rune]

aka when you obtained it

[manic rune]

i have it at "?"

[tall wharf]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[quartz ravine]

elseif context.joker_main then
                local tenCounted = 0
                local messatsu = false
                for i = 1, #context.scoring_hand do
                    if context.scoring_hand[i]:get_id() == 10 then
                        tenCounted = tenCounted + 1
                    end
                end

[manic rune]

🤷‍♂️ so it really depends on how you want it to look like, i suppose

[long urchin]

beh, im not really the biggest fan of that

[manic rune]

but i try not to rely on hooks and patches too much to get my jokers going

[long urchin]

thats fair, its the hook thats breaking it lol

[red flower]

you can also just use reset_game_globals and check run_start i think

[long urchin]

is that not what im doing?

[red flower]

why do you need the hook then?

[long urchin]

to activate the function when the run starts??

[red flower]

that's what run_start should do?

im pretty sure

[long urchin]

i did what castle 2 did in modded vanilla

and it works so i dont know what i did wrong :V

[long urchin]

function SMODS.current_mod.reset_game_globals(run_start) yeah this is the function name

i am using that

[hard flume]

How would I go about checking if the first played card has a specific enhancement and destroying it?

[manic rune]

G.hand.cards[1]

[red flower]

no yeah i saw that, it just seems weird to have run_start and also need a hook but if that's what the example does then it must be fine

[manic rune]

then use SMODS.has_enhancement(card, enhancement_key)

[hard flume]

Oh cool. Thank you!!

[native zinc]

ah, makes sense! thanks

[long urchin]

would switching off a hook still make it work the same? cuz i might be able to get it to work with a different method

[quartz ravine]

@frosty dock , I found the answer, sent in a pr to add this to the docs

https://github.com/Steamodded/Wiki/pull/20

[long sun]

hi! is there a context for buying a Joker?

[long urchin]

add_to_deck?

[red flower]

i would think so but the example says the opposite so idk lol

[red flower]

context.buying_card

[frosty dock]

Using "Enhanced" or "Base" is what standard packs do, this looks off

[long urchin]

i mean no point in not trying? how would you do it

[long sun]

thanks ^^

[long urchin]

john aure is here :0

[frosty dock]

also we don't encourage using create_card directly

[red flower]

i feel like if you remove the hook it should work?

[long urchin]

ok john you made the castle 2 card in modded vanilla, im trying to do something similar and its not working

do you think you could help?

[long urchin]

like how would i remove it? im a little stupid so explain it like im 5 lol

[red flower]

like delete the entire function

[long urchin]

but then it wouldnt ever change card rank...

[tall wharf]

how do i close the menu properly 😭

[red flower]

i mean function Game:init_game_object()

[frosty dock]

ModdedVanilla is made by someone23832, but I can help i guess

[red flower]

esc 🙂

[tall wharf]

😭

[zealous glen]

Just create a copy of the menu behind it on top

[long urchin]

heres the problem im having mr smods, i assumed you could help cuz the comment above the castle2 card
-- Thanks go to Aurewritten, John SMODS himself, for writing out this joker.

[zealous glen]

[frosty dock]

Alright I'm done fixing the bug i was dealing with, let me see

[tall wharf]

nvm

figuring it out alone rn

me when the

[frosty dock]

you're using base.rank, which doesn't exist at all

[long urchin]

what

wait then what would i use??

OH MY GOD

[frosty dock]

not sure where you saw that, but that's just not a thing

it's base.value

[zealous glen]

Me when I steal that UI:

[long urchin]

i just checked game.lua it is base.value

thats like the ONLY part of the game that says value why would that change up JUST FOR THIS

[red flower]

yay

i should think of a custom message

[frosty dock]

where does it say rank

[zealous glen]

[frosty dock]

some local var names do i guess, but the game doesn't have much of a structure behind ranks

so most of that is from smods

[tall wharf]

uh oh

[frosty dock]

looks familiar

[long urchin]

In the local variables for the numbers in the en_us file, and I believe the base code for rebate says rank too

[frosty dock]

it's thunk code after all

don't expect consistency

else you might get consumed by j_gluttenous_joker

[zealous glen]

caino

consumeable

xmult, x_mult, x_Mult, xMult, etc.

[frosty dock]

what's an x_Mult

[long urchin]

Also I ctrl+f rank and replaced it with value, which fixed the error but now it's not working as intended, it's not converting ace cards to steel. Gonna see I it's a problem with mislabeling by replacing ace with a number so that it'll match up with the rank

[tall wharf]

GLUTEN

[long urchin]

WHY IS THE CODE MISSPELT

[manic rune]

consumeable

[long urchin]

LOCAAL THUUUUUUUUUUUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't realize until I saw it next to the loc_text name

dont go high on pepsi, yall hear me

shi go wild

[zealous glen]

it makes you be pis

[hushed field]

do UI nodes have a transparency knob I can toy with? I'm trying to see if I can fade an element in

[zealous glen]

Well you can change the color

[hard flume]

How do I destroy a playing card?

[long urchin]

Fuck

[hard flume]

Do I do it through events?

[zealous glen]

You can use a return value

Wiki

[tall wharf]

WHY DOES MY BUTTON NOT SHOW UP WAAA

OK I NEED SET BUTTON PIP

WTF

[hard flume]

I tried that and it didn't work, but I'll try again

[long sun]

okay new question :)

context.buying_card works, but is there a context for generally obtaining a Joker?

[tall wharf]

i love

[long sun]

🔥

[frosty dock]

one was added today, actually

context.card_added and context.card.ability.set == 'Joker'

[long sun]

cheers!! will update for that, and change the dependency

[red flower]

oh i should change the dependency too

[long sun]

huh, weird. updating caused a new error in the collection

lemme grab that

oh no wait, it's because i added something -w-

[long urchin]

Is there a way to check a card's variable via console?

[long sun]

nevermind!

what did i do wrong here? :>

set_ability = function(center, initial, display_sprites)
    card.ability.extra.current_rounds = 0
  end```

[long urchin]

I don't think that's the format for a function but I could be wrong

[hard flume]

can someone tell me wat's wrong?

[long sun]

what's the error?

[hard flume]

there's no error, its just not doing the destroying

[long sun]

so a logic error then, gotcha

lemme see

do the if statements apply? can you test that?

[tall wharf]

😭

[hard flume]

wait i think i figured it out

[long sun]

(bump)

[tall wharf]

AAAA

[molten ice]

the function argument is incorrect
it's
set_ability(self, card, initial, delay_sprites)

[tall wharf]

FINALLY WAAA

[long sun]

ah, grand, thanks ^^

[hard flume]

fuck i just realized. i have two destroy card contexts.

[long urchin]

coding is a nightmare

what does this error mean what did i do wrong

[long sun]

hmm. now i've got my ends wrong

code:

sorry for the lack of colouring -w-

ah no wait i'm dumb -w- i forgot = function

okay bingo! thanks :D

AHAHAHAHAHA OKAY SOMETHING BROKE

[modern kindle]

why ol boy leanin to the side like

[old bane]

does it make a difference if mult is doubled vs the total score being doubled

[mellow widget]

how would i go about making a seal have a 1/6 chance to destory the card it's on?

[hushed field]

timing is the main factor, but if it'd happen at the end, (10 x 8) x2 is the same as 10 x (8 x2)

[long urchin]

How do I send debug messages?

[red flower]

sendDebugMessage

print works too

[long urchin]

Is there a way to send multiple of those little notification messages? I tried doing multiple but it breaks cuz you can't do multiple return statements

return{
     message = "this is an example",
     color = G.C.Attention,
     card = card
}```

[vast lily]

where do i find this guide, im a lua noob so this is all a bit daunting to me

[zinc forum]

attention_text might be what you're looking for

For a Nope! for instance

attention_text({
                            text = localize('k_nope_ex'),
                            scale = 1.3, 
                            hold = 1.4,
                            major = aura_card,

That's the Steamodded wiki, this page specifically https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/calculate_functions

[vast lily]

oh that's sick thank u so much

[hard flume]

How would I write this as an if statement?

Both parts

[dire palm]

How can I make it so the destroyed cards don't get counted in the scoring?

[red flower]

you can use context.modify_scoring_hand to disable them

[manic rune]

if SMODS.has_enhancement(G.hand.cards[1], "enhancement_key") then

[hard flume]

Oh thanks. That's why I was struggling

[dire palm]

So, I should put my code in context.modify_scoring_hand instead of context.before?

[manic rune]

all the enhancement keys are located in game.lua

[red flower]

no, you will need additional logic

[agile thistle]

is FPS as high as it can go on the system or locked to a specific target?

[dire palm]

Is context.modify_scoring_hand on the doc?

[red flower]

i dont think so?

you need to return add_to_hand = true to add a card and remove_from_hand = true to remove it and it has context.other_card and stuff

[hard flume]

what's wrong with this code? i have dream cards defined, but this joker isnt destroying them.

[runic thicket]

Guys this might sound dumb but where or how do i modify the "Oops all 6's" card

[minor furnace]

why is Cynthia not the Ace? 😔

[sonic cedar]

does anyone know where local config = SMODS.current_mod.config would go as setup? like is it IN the config file, or in the main file, like where

[prisma loom]

is there a way to insert a table instead of one specific card type (currently 'Spectral')?

[red flower]

wherever you want to access the config from

I recommend putting it in a global in your main file like

MyModGlobal = {} -- change the name to something unique
MyModGlobal.config = SMODS.current_mod.config

[sonic cedar]

i see i see

thanks!

[zealous glen]

Taking ownership or patching it

[manic rune]

whats the normal weight for a normal booster pack

...i will just put it 10 and hope that its common enough

[red flower]

the common one i have is at 1

[manic rune]

oh

:3

i had it at 999 for testing, now im tweaking all values back to normal

[maiden river]

I do actually need my booster packs to show up more, so I should bump it up a little higher

[zealous glen]

https://tenor.com/view/chopper-gif-17150346427698298025

Can we get much higher

[vast lily]

I'm currently using https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1215417507440107540 as a reference for modding in a new deck type, but i wanna make it so the player starts with 2 copies of Temperance (like how Magic Deck starts with 2 copies of The Fool) and i cant find any info on how to do this

[strong jacinth]

I need ideas

How do I make an inventory system.

Like where I can combine two things from my inventory

[prisma loom]

I've managed to figure it out but

[sonic cedar]

bro is making riddle school

[prisma loom]

this works

and this doesnt

[strong jacinth]

Im making a chemical system

[prisma loom]

does anyone know how this should be formatted in a proper way?

[red flower]

this is always going to be spectral or planet

[prisma loom]

yeah I tested it

how to add planets to the mix tho?

[red flower]

pseudorandom_element({'Spectral', 'Planet', 'Tarot'}, pseudoseed('obsidian'))

[prisma loom]

thanks!

(sorry Im a newbie)

[strong jacinth]

Anyone?

[wintry solar]

It should be loc_txt = …

[knotty copper]

Ah 👍

[lavish lake]

I dont understand how people need lovely toml's, libraries and all that other stuff when all you need is just a json, a main.lua and some assets

[old bane]

would i be able to use a drawstep to make it so that a playing card draws a certain sprite for its center sprite based on a variable? I want to be able to draw any card enhancement backing but dk how

[red flower]

so true

[lavish lake]

You should probably put /s at the end idek

[red flower]

so true /s /jk /notsrs

[lavish lake]

:(

[knotty copper]

@wintry solar btw is the 2nd thing I was asking about possible with malverk or can that be only done by using SMODS.Atlas?

[wintry solar]

What’s the second thing?

[knotty copper]

Is it possible to have a texture pack object that is applied for its main joker to also appear on pages such as edition and etc which use the main joker?

[vast lily]

update: i figured out my issue, i was writing in the input parameters for create_card wrong

[strong jacinth]

Anyone?
-# bump

[old bane]

can you not just make a consumable?

[strong jacinth]

Like the inventory system

I had this, but im pretty sure it wont work

[vast lily]

interesting

[frosty dock]

You should just SMODS.create_card or SMODS.add_card :jimbo_spin:

[minor furnace]

Watch an official balatro update come out and break everything

[vast lily]

real

[frosty dock]

1.1.0 will most likely take some amount of fixing on steamodded's as well as any mods that heavily patch

[vast lily]

whats different between these and the native create_card im already using

[frosty dock]

it takes a table as an argument instead of a bunch of different parameters

https://github.com/steamodded/smods/wiki/Utility

[old bane]

can i make it so that instead of drawing its sprite an enhancement can draw any other enhancement's sprite instead?

[strong jacinth]

:3

[strong jacinth]

Do you know?

[green mica]

What inventory system are you talking about?

[wintry solar]

If your texture pack changes the base jimbo these should update afaik

[strong jacinth]

So you need to be able to combine two cards, the cards you het after defeating a blind

So i need a way for someone to see and combine those cards

[green mica]

Sounds like a really open-ended question

maybe you could do something like that menu that displays the vouchers you've collected, that's the closest thing to an inventory I can think of, besides just like the consumable area

[long sun]

this code for checking if the played hand is a High Card isn't working:
if context.before and next(context.poker_hands['High Card']) and not context.blueprint then
what should it be?

[maiden river]

I may be clueless
but I'm letting my jokers (with a custom rarity) start showing up in the shop
but I just keep getting a bunch of jimbos instead

oh I think it's this

although technically nothing should be in there...

[knotty copper]

Ah alright then it prob doesn't unless I messed up something with how I set up the alt texture, it properly replaces it on the joker menu 🤷‍♂️ so those other menus must do it differently or something

thx for the help regardless

[hasty ravine]

I'm trying to make a custom sound, but it gives me an error when its supposed to play. Am I missing anything? The code for the sound and the code for the joker are in the same file, if that helps at all.

[manic rune]

if context.before and context.scoring_name == "High Card" and not context.blueprint then probably?

[long sun]

will try, thanks ^^

works!! :D

sorry, one more question

is there a way to destroy all cards held in hand?

[manic rune]

hmm

use context.destroy_card, and do smt so that it knows which card should be destroyed, like storing it in a var or smt

this is what i did

[silk scaffold]

thinking to make a high quality deck mod with a couple of my ideas to add new ways to play balatro

[manic rune]

mhm, good luck with that!

[silk scaffold]

ty

[manic rune]

-# without the "!" i sound so rude for some reason 😭

[silk scaffold]

LOL

-# its ok...

[maiden river]

I'm feeling like I'm getting trolled
why is jimbo showing up 😭

[manic rune]

oh, whats this area for

thats new

[silk scaffold]

r u using by chance itemremover?

[hasty ravine]

I found the issue. Turns out I put the ogg file in the wrong place 🤦‍♂️

[maiden river]

debuff cards

[maiden river]

nope

[manic rune]

ohhhh yeah

[maiden river]

I'm trying to make a specific rarity of cards (a modded one) show up in the shop

but it's just adding jimbo

he's mocking me

who's the real fool now, I suppose...?

I reverted all of my changes but it's still happening 😭

[hasty ravine]

What does this error mean?

[old bane]

i feel like i've seen that error before but i can only think of your sounds that are being used as music not having the "music_" prefix to their key, but idk if thats it

[hasty ravine]

I redownloaded the audio file and it works now

So 🤷‍♂️

[old bane]

ah

must just be like an audio corruption glitch or something

[old bane]

are you making it so only that rarity shows up in shop? because jimbo shows up only when the game fails to load in an appropriate joker.
Do you have cards of that specific rarity already implemented? If not, implement a few to see. If so, maybe try turning up the weight by a lot instead of not allowing the other rarities to spawn at all?

[maiden river]

No, it's just supposed to show up alongside the regular ones

[old bane]

do you have jokers of that rarity already?

[glad osprey]

how do i load other files

so that everything isnt in one big ass file

[minor furnace]

assert(SMODS.load_file('file_name.lua'))()

[glad osprey]

ooooooh

i forgot the end parenthesis

[strong jacinth]

How do i create a button

[prisma loom]

it seems like there's still a 'bug'
when card procs and upgrades it doesnt give xmult

but it supposed to upgrade, display message and then give it's xmult

[glad osprey]

make a button
hope this helps!

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/UI-Guide#interaction

[faint yacht]

return {
  message = localize('k_upgrade_ex'),
  extra = { xmult = card.ability.extra.x_mult }
}

[knotty copper]

A bit of a complex question
Is it possible to program it so to have a button which could enable or disable specific cards, tarots, blinds, etc from appearing?

[glad osprey]

make button that adds or removes the cards from the pool

[knotty copper]

Ye, how would I do that?

[glad osprey]

i do not know

[upbeat bronze]

this is retriggering every played card, not just the first and last scoring, anyone know how i'd fix this?

[knotty copper]

Wait nvm found it
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Utility

[faint yacht]

if context.other_card == context.scoring_hand[1] or context.other_card == context.scoring_hand[#context.scoring_hand] then

[strong jacinth]

Uhh how would i position this a little bit above?

[upbeat bronze]

ty

[red flower]

add an offset to the UIBox
config = { align = 'cm', offset = { x = 0, y = -1 } }

[upbeat bronze]

yeah i was so close in figuring it out but it was just a piece of code required i didnt know existed

so i wouldve never gotten it

[prisma loom]

nothing's changed

card upgrades but doesnt give xmult after

[knotty copper]

If you are storing the name of a deckskin in a language file
Is it stored in collabs like this or somewhere else?
UPDATE: figured it out it just needed to be a number value

I keep getting a table index is nil error so I assume not

[faint yacht]

Ah, this is an enhancement... uh, not exactly sure then. 🤷

[bold sleet]

Shouldn't you be returning this too?

[prisma loom]

wdym

it's in return brackets

[faint yacht]

The extra should execute after the "message" bit, though.

[bold sleet]

Like, as I read it, if the probability thing hits, the message gets sent and the extra thing gets updated.

Shouldn't you return xmult as well?

Maybe?

Not sure.

[minor furnace]

apparently, card.ability does not contain the key for the enhancement?

[bold sleet]

Tell if it works idk

I haven't worked with enhancements a lot.

[prisma loom]

well it's goes right after it, no?

[prisma loom]

nope

[faint yacht]

Should, as you can have another extra inside of an extra.

[prisma loom]

like how that would look like?

[minor furnace]

card.ability.extra contains "Lucky Card", but what I need is "m_lucky"...

[glad osprey]

why isnt the deck here

[minor furnace]

ah

what I wanted was card.config.center.key

[prisma loom]

like this?

[glad osprey]

im an idiot

[faint yacht]

The initial return can be considered an "extra" table itself.

[prisma loom]

huh?

[faint yacht]

The return is a table of effects to do. If you want to "chain" them, you add an extra table with its' own set of effects.

[prisma loom]

all I want and quote 'make it so that after sending an upgrade message, card would give it xmult'

that's all

[faint yacht]

Does it give XMult when not upgrading?

[prisma loom]

yes

[glad osprey]

i forgot to save the art lmao

[prisma loom]

it has a base xmult

that gets upgraded

[next timber]

oh wtf now big cards are giving x2 chips again. they can't make their fucking mind up on if they should do that or not im so confused

[faint yacht]

You should probably move the entire giving of XMult outside of that block and only do the chance check and upgrade separately.

[scarlet spire]

testing out blindcalc, can it not use non-blind contexts like final_scoring_step yet?

[next timber]

OHHHHHHHHHH it's h_x_chips, it's not getting caught by the check for values starting with x_

[prisma loom]

wdym separately? The code checks chance and scales mult

why do I separate them

i'm confused :(

[faint yacht]

local upgradecheck = false -- set a temporary local variable
if chancecheck then -- do the chance roll here
  upgradecheck = true -- upgraded, set this to true
  card.ability.extra.x_mult = card:scale_value(card.ability.extra.x_mult, card.ability.extra.change) -- do the value change
end

return {
  message = upgradecheck and localize('k_upgrade_ex'), -- if our temporary variable is set to true earlier, the message should pop up
  xmult = card.ability.extra.x_mult
}

[prisma loom]

holy moly

i need to process this

[knotty copper]

If I understand these function correctly if I put the key to a custom joker, tarots, stake, whatever I could add or remove things from their respective pools?

[rotund ridge]

hey guys the crash log keep saying "[SMODS _ "src/utils.lua"]:1240: attempt to call method 'juice_up' (a nil value)" and im to stupid to get whats wrong AAAAAAAAAH

[faint yacht]

You should not need the card = bit... especially not if it is card = self.

[rotund ridge]

so i just remove it? im new to this and never codded before

[faint yacht]

Yeah, just remove.

[next timber]

why isn't this setting the hand size to 12?

[rotund ridge]

it its give me juice_up error is there another thing i should remove?

[faint yacht]

The other card = self, too.

[rotund ridge]

omg im soooo blind

[prisma loom]

Is this correct?

message pops up but now not only it doesnt give xmult but it also doesnt upgrade

[maiden river]

I do

there's like 20 of them lmao

[onyx sonnet]

Is there a way to iterate through unscored cards?

[upbeat bronze]

just to confirm, food jokers isnt a real definition for jokers in basegame? aka i'd need to define that list?

[onyx sonnet]

i cant find much of a way to differentiate between scored and unscored cards

[red flower]

correct

[onyx sonnet]

not to my knowledge

[upbeat bronze]

hmm ok

[red flower]

there's an optional feature for the unscored cards "area"

[upbeat bronze]

how would i uh...go about doing that

[onyx sonnet]

go about doing what

[upbeat bronze]

making the list and being able to call upon that list in a joker's effect

[hard flume]

shouldnt this code work?

[next timber]

would be a bit easier to read if it wasn't in the Blue Zone

[frosty dock]

you got your return table wrong, and you have checks for different contexts nested inside each other

[onyx sonnet]

Well you could just define the list as one of the joker's vars and get a random element from the list and calculate their effect

[hard flume]

oh okay

[frosty dock]

if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then defines one context (on card scored)

if context.destroy_card and context.cardarea == G.play then defines another (destroying scored cards in played hand)

to destroy then card in context.destroy_card, you should be using return { remove = true }

[onyx sonnet]

                if other_joker_ret then 
                    other_joker_ret.card = context.blueprint_card or self
                    other_joker_ret.colour = G.C.RED
                    return other_joker_ret

This is blueprint's way of copying an ability, with other_joker being the selected joker, im not sure if smods has changed the way this is done tho

[hard flume]

thank you! that makes sense

[frosty dock]

we have SMODS.blueprint_effect

[upbeat bronze]

this is the plan, not even really sure where to start though

[onyx sonnet]

Oh

[next timber]

just make a table of every food joker

and then check if its in the table

[onyx sonnet]

yeah

[next timber]

ig

[next timber]

so why isnt this working?

[onyx sonnet]

@frosty dock mr aure how do i check if a card belongs to the unscored card area?

[faint yacht]

Well, I've written it as how I'd do it with a Joker... I'm just not sure how the enhancements work. I'm pretty sure there's other mods that did something like this that you can take a look at? Apologies for wasting time...

[frosty dock]

context.cardarea == 'unscored' if you're in a context where that card is being evaluated directly

[onyx sonnet]

what do you mean by evaluated directly?

[frosty dock]

where it's provided directly with context and you're not iterating some list of cards to get to it

[prisma loom]

all good

thanks for helping anyways

[onyx sonnet]

so in something like context.before, iterating through every card and checking for unscored wouldnt work?

[scarlet spire]

does blindcalc support checking contexts that aren't specifically made for blinds yet, or is that still a work in progress? currently i've only been able to get blind-specific contexts like press_play working with calculate

[rotund ridge]

it works btw thaaanks

[scarlet spire]

like, for example, if I wanted a blind to trigger after all cards have scored and animated, via context.final_scoring_step

[upbeat bronze]

https://tenor.com/view/tism-eyes-gif-15088206100719378788

[next timber]

thats. not a lot of them

its like. seltzer, turtle bean, popcorn, ice cream

[hard flume]

is this better?

[onyx sonnet]

gros michel and cavendish

[next timber]

and gros michel and cavendish, technically

[upbeat bronze]

Nah the issue is is im looking at the lua help page on tables and i dont even know like

How to make one

It really doesnt explain it well for complete idiots like me

[red flower]

{ "value1", "value2", "value3" }

[hard flume]

i tried it and its still not working

[manic rune]

sometimes i wonder if the number of modders is higher than the number of mod players in the balatro community

[onyx sonnet]

i think in this case they dont know how to fill it with jokers
