[zealous glen]

you need to pass an option for Editions to not draw the card underneath

[thin anchor]

no

[next timber]

no its just for debug watch shader, ive got it disabled on the actual edition

[strong jacinth]

Separate files?

[zealous glen]

some mod might've forgotten a local

[sullen fern]

okay, i found the issue.

it's only affecting jokers with a custom rarity

(my toki pona and doilus stage jokers)

so there's something wrong there

[thin anchor]

file structure (atlases are in 1x and 2x, code is in moddedvanilla.lua)

[strong jacinth]

Uhh, I dont know, try sending your dump

[sullen fern]

is it because... deprecated....

[strong jacinth]

Lovely/dump/game_object.lua:364

[sullen fern]

YOU.

[thin anchor]

this?

[sullen fern]

gradient.

[strong jacinth]

Dump, not crashlog

[thin anchor]

sorry

[strong jacinth]

Go into:

Mods/lovely/dump/game_object.lua:364

[sullen fern]

do i have to change this into something else now that gradient is deprecated?

[open aspen]

how can i add a description for my enhancement?

[sullen fern]

because i beleive that it's what's causing the crash

[daring fern]

I got it working but how do I make it make a sound when calculating?

[strong jacinth]

Mind telling me what was wrong?

[daring fern]

What do you mean?

[strong jacinth]

play_sound('[YOURMODPREFIX]_MyCoolSound', 0.7, 0.55)

[fresh swallow]

Ok I am trying to find something to use for the top right of my game board. Any ideas?
Right now I am thinking of just having Jimbo’s face and the game name.

[strong jacinth]

Like what was causing the error, just curious

[next timber]

most played hand type? deck info? (like how many of each suit etc)

[fresh swallow]

That’s on the left screen.

[next timber]

oh ok

[thin anchor]

is this what you mean? couldnt find the file with the name game_objects in lovely, but i found it in smods

[fresh swallow]

Ye it’s all good

Just looking for something static

[daring fern]

There was no error.

[fresh swallow]

Decorations or something

[strong jacinth]

^^

[open aspen]

is there anywhere i can see all ways to format text

for a description for card?

[daring fern]

How do I play a sound when the chips and mult get put together?

[strong jacinth]

Idk

-# I think you use event manager

-# But I'm not really sure

[thin anchor]

question mark

[strong jacinth]

Uhh, I don't know

[thin anchor]

this is so confusing i hate this

[open aspen]

i dont understand this

[sullen fern]

how do i make a tooltip for a vanilla thing appear (vanilla enhancements, editons, stickers, etc)

[zealous glen]

for most things you put the center into the info_queue

[tall wharf]

hey n

OOPS

[thin anchor]

credit card blind

[tall apex]

Me when crypt o’ current sea

[red flower]

lmao

[tall apex]

Also is that hit reference triple Baka reference

[open aspen]

bro

get this guy outta here wtf

[thin anchor]

[tall apex]

<@&1133519078540185692>

[minor furnace]

That’s a bit seal

[open aspen]

hes gone

[tall apex]

I’d imagine

[open aspen]

help wtf happened

[unkempt thicket]

Mmmmm

[open aspen]

this is my localization have i done something wrong

im getting errors and the game wont load

i double checked the mod prefix and the key for the enhancement as well

[sullen fern]

time to work on this guy

which should be easy

all it really does is apply a seal to selected cards

i really could just steal basegame talisman code

[dense adder]

this is pretty much how mail in rebate detects equal rank but it is not triggering for my joker
if context.other_card:get_id() == G.GAME.current_round.LuckyNum_card.id
anyone have insights to checking rank on scored cards

        if context.cardarea == G.play and context.scoring_hand and context.individual then
          if context.other_card:get_id() == G.GAME.current_round.LuckyNum_card.id then
            return{
              message = localize { type = 'variable', key = 'a_xmult', vars = { card.ability.extra.xMult } },
              Xmult_mod = card.ability.extra.xMult
            }
          end
        end
      --calc end
    end```

[open aspen]

i figured it out nw

[sullen fern]

where's the talisman code located

[dense adder]

card.lua use ctrl + f

[sullen fern]

there we go

so do i just take this and add it to my code

[open aspen]

this is an enhancement, how do I make it show up in a separate window? like the other enhancements

[sullen fern]

like this?

[zealous glen]

They don't

[open aspen]

ur right

[modern kindle]

is there a particularly easy way i can store all visible hands at the start of a run to compare with available hands that couldcome later on in a run?

i have a joker that gives +1 slot per hidden hand revealed but i need to make it retroactively grant slots if a player revealed hands before they got the joker itself

[open aspen]

that also works with modded hands i assume

is what ur asking

[modern kindle]

well there are base game hidden hands such as 5oak, 5 flush, etc
but yea i have modded hands that are hidden as well

[open aspen]

eg if more hand types were added

[modern kindle]

but its just meant for when hands become visible in your run info

[open aspen]

i mean if u dont care about modded hand types that arent secret you can hard code the initial value and compare it to the current revealed hands right?

[sullen fern]

is this correct?

[modern kindle]

hardcoding it in doesnt allow for dynamic changes, im not the only mod out there with hidden hands or lackthereof

[sullen fern]

i probably will have to change set_seal to use my modded seal

[rancid bridge]

trying to make a joker that adds +25 chips for every ace held in hand
yeah how do i do that

[open aspen]

ye

but what im saying is

if theres no mods that add hands visible by default

you can just hard code it

ofc

its ideal to be able to just pick it up at the beginning

in case a mod DOES add those

as long as its only hidden hands added you can make the joker retroactively do it and reference the amount of regular normal non hidden hands in vanilla

eg theres 9 regular hand types in vanilla

so do "currently visible amount of hand types" - 9

[modern kindle]

thats probably enough of a workaround yea, itd be ideal to just pull it from g.game.hands at run start but i cant seem to make it do that yet

at least, not outside of a card

[open aspen]

yea

like for now u can do that

and if u figure it out after u can update it

[sullen fern]

okay, alabell works.

let's go.

but it only applies to one card and not two

[remote sequoia]

Hm. Is it impossible to give a SMODS joker a default cost of $0? I have cost = 0 but it's still charging a dollar.
I wouldn't mind the price but the joker in question gives money when it's added, and the -$1 popup always overwrites the +$ one (adding delay just makes both take a bit unfortunately).

[sullen fern]

how do i make it apply to two cards and not one

i changed G.hand.highlighted to 2 but i dont think that worked

how would i do that

[quartz ravine]

Is there a hook for the unscored cards in a hand? I want to...do things to them

[remote sequoia]

looks like strength surrounds the G.E_Manager code in a for i=1, #G.hand.highlighted do loop.

[quartz ravine]

I know I have this

context.full_hand[] as an array

[remote sequoia]

like so:

 for i=1, #G.hand.highlighted do
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({trigger = 'after',delay = 0.1,func = function()
                    local card = G.hand.highlighted[i]
                    local suit_prefix = string.sub(card.base.suit, 1, 1)..'_'
                    local rank_suffix = card.base.id == 14 and 2 or math.min(card.base.id+1, 14)
                    if rank_suffix < 10 then rank_suffix = tostring(rank_suffix)
                    elseif rank_suffix == 10 then rank_suffix = 'T'
                    elseif rank_suffix == 11 then rank_suffix = 'J'
                    elseif rank_suffix == 12 then rank_suffix = 'Q'
                    elseif rank_suffix == 13 then rank_suffix = 'K'
                    elseif rank_suffix == 14 then rank_suffix = 'A'
                    end
                    card:set_base(G.P_CARDS[suit_prefix..rank_suffix])
                return true end }))
            end  ```

[sullen fern]

kinda like this

[remote sequoia]

conv_card keeps pointing to the first card in that code. You'd want it to be G.hand.highlighted[i]

[remote sequoia]

looks good to me. Keep in mind you'd wanna start a new seed when testing to make absolutely sure it's using the updated code.

[sullen fern]

no it's working

working as intended

[dense adder]

This does not want to trigger for some reason, anyone have any clue
if context.other_card:get_id() == G.GAME.current_round.LuckyNum_card.id then

Full Code Block

    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        if context.cardarea == G.play and context.scoring_hand and context.individual then
          if context.other_card:get_id() == G.GAME.current_round.LuckyNum_card.id then
            return{
              message = localize { type = 'variable', key = 'a_xmult', vars = { card.ability.extra.xMult } },
              Xmult_mod = card.ability.extra.xMult
            }
          end
        end
      --calc end
    end
}

[remote sequoia]

Glad to hear! Also funnily enough your code helped me solve my issue, just threw on an add_event for the money add. c:

[mint island]

If you guys know of any cool deck mods send them my way 🙂

[frosty dock]

I'd move the unhighlight_all event outside the for loop

[tall wharf]

hello aure how are you doing

it's 5:23am

i had slept in the evening and drank some tea a few hours before

[frosty dock]

I'm doing good, ty

[tall wharf]

I'll try to sleep

[frosty dock]

damn aiko fix your sleep schedule 😭

[tall wharf]

😭

my sleep schedule is beyond fucked

[open aspen]

yall what are all the variables in G

like what is G.play.cards returning

[frosty dock]

there's... a lot of stuff in G

G.play is an instance of the CardArea class, specifically the one that holds played cards during scoring

for any CardArea, its cards is a table containing the cards it holds in order

[sullen fern]

my jokers can now appear in boosters, but they appear very infrequently

probably because most of them are rare and uncommon

and they don't even appear in the shop

[open aspen]

does that say joker

[sullen fern]

it's a doom keycard.

[open aspen]

ye

[sullen fern]

there's no kanji in it at all.

[open aspen]

LOL

how did u know thats what i thought

[sullen fern]

you must be seeing things

[open aspen]

i just thought you sneakily included the joker text

[sullen fern]

no i didnt

[open aspen]

u could tho

if u wanted

[sullen fern]

but did you see his face?

[open aspen]

i did see

that was arguably cooler

hes a sneaky jimbo

[sullen fern]

well, there's dream and friends

there's joker.vbs

[open aspen]

if using a a calculate function within a card tho, can I get the index of the card im calculating from? I want to do an effect that depends on the card to the right of the playing card with my enhancement

[open aspen]

ducktales spotted

[sullen fern]

jonklerphone...

[dense adder]

bump

[sullen fern]

so yeah, my jokers can appear in the shop.

i just don't have any common jokers, so they are relatively rare

[storm root]

im trying to create my own tarot card, can anyone help me figure out what this error means?

[open aspen]

theres no variable called other

and ur trying to access it

but it dont exist

[rapid stag]

is this process any different if the thing i am trying to do this with is a vanilla joker and thus i need to take ownership?

[formal parrot]

Why so serious

[zealous glen]

I don’t think so

Haven’t tried to say

[storm root]

How do I access the card(s) currently selected via the code?

[sullen fern]

there will be more, so look out for that

[plush cove]

G.hand.highlighted

[sullen fern]

i know all of you guys are curious about the blank card

[storm root]

where is this defined in the source code?

[plush cove]

search for "G.hand.highlighted" in the balatro source code

[sullen fern]

antimatter card WILL be real.

all you really need to do is keep blank card to ante 8

speaking of keeping a card to ante 8…

how would that work in terms of coding

[dense adder]

G.GAME.current_round.LuckyNum_card.id is there something wrong with the .id as everything else is working in the code but when context.other_card:get_id() == G.GAME.current_round.LuckyNum_card.id it never says the values are simular even though this is how mail in rebate works in card.lua

[sullen fern]

there’s also…

[glacial bloom]

Brand new to coding. Why am I getting this error?

[plush cove]

Loc_txt should not be uppercase

it should be loc_txt

[sullen fern]

lap 2…

[rancid bridge]

reminds me of.. The House.

[rancid bridge]

when it resets ante to 0 can it play the bell sound effect from pizza tower

[gleaming zealot]

GlobalThunk

[fallen osprey]

I added a consumable type and a card, but now its crashing for some reason along with saying stuff about a previous joker for some reason

[glacial bloom]

It's still giving the same error

[simple mural]

[lethal ridge]

hi

G is like a global value right

[turbid maple]

G is the global.... game as a whole thingy yes

[lethal ridge]

so theres this thing

[turbid maple]

its the John Balatro himself

[lethal ridge]

G.C. then something

where can i find the other colors in here

[turbid maple]

globals.lua

or something called like that

[lethal ridge]

inside of balatro source code"?

[turbid maple]

yed

[lethal ridge]

thanks so much

[faint plank]

workin on a thing

[frosty dock]

your consumable doesn't have a set

its set needs to be equal to the key of the consumable type

[lethal ridge]

this should work right?

(it isnt)

[fallen osprey]

thanks

[wintry solar]

What isn’t working?

[lethal ridge]

it doesnt multiply my mult by ten

when i tested in the game

[wintry solar]

It should do

Does the tooltip display correctly?

[lethal ridge]

the loc vars?

if so yes

[dense adder]

if its a multiplier shouldn't it return Xmult_mod?

[wintry solar]

No

x_mult is fine

This should work fully

[maiden phoenix]

color doesn't exists, it's colour (if it somehow matters), also you don't need the card = card

[lethal ridge]

okay

[wintry solar]

Colour doesn’t matter here

It won’t do anything

[manic rune]

i thought you put the "unlocked" and "discovered" outside config?

[wintry solar]

You do

[lethal ridge]

fr?

[manic rune]

mhm

doesn't seem to be related to your issue though

[lethal ridge]

so all of this isnt inside of the bracket right?

[manic rune]

can you try printing card.ability.extra.x_mult outside return?

[lethal ridge]

okay

[wintry solar]

It should be 10 if the tooltip is working

[lethal ridge]

wait it works now

finally

i dont know how it works now but it does

[manic rune]

damn

well thats good ❤️

[lethal ridge]

for x_mult when you return from the calculate function

does it have to be x_mult specifcally

[manic rune]

x_mult, xmult

[lethal ridge]

okay thanks

[manic rune]

theres probably more but i think thats the two you should know

[dense adder]

can anyone see an issue here
for some reason G.GAME.current_round.LuckyNum_card.id is not returning the rank id

[faint plank]

got the check working, the AK47 joker is coming along nicely

[wintry solar]

These are the valid options

[lethal ridge]

thank you sso much

i will sav e this

[minor furnace]

what units are card.T.r measured in?

[lethal ridge]

whats that

[minor furnace]

I think it's the rotation

[lethal ridge]

units of rotations?

isnt it like radians or degrees then

[minor furnace]

it appears to not be degrees

so maybe radians

[lethal ridge]

most likely

[vast lily]

should be easy to test if ur sure its the rotation

[lethal ridge]

does anyone know how the class prefix works?

is it like

j_modprefix_jokername

or

modprefix_j_jokername

[crisp elbow]

I'm trying to use a function similar to this for doing this but if you own a specific Joker. Do I need to do anything else but this in my toml file?

[patches.pattern]
target = "card.lua"
pattern = "level_up_hand(used_tarot, self.ability.consumeable.hand_type)"
position = "after"
payload = '''
if self.ability.name == 'j_stub_steal_the_moon' then
    level_up_hand(used_tarot, self.ability.consumeable.hand_type)
end
'''
match_indent = true

[manic rune]

this one

its the same for other object keys too

[lethal ridge]

okay thanks

so if i want to reference to a joker i need to always add j_ right?

[crisp elbow]

correct

[vast lily]

anyone know how to use SMODS.Back to make a deck that starts with multiple vouchers unlocked?

SMODS.Back({
    atlas = "clueless_deck",
    config = {
        voucher = "v_tarot_tycoon",
        clueless = true,
    },
-- truncated for brevity just assume theres another } down here eventually

this config assignment allows it to start with tarot tycoon unlocked, but i wanna start with tarot merchant also

[soft echo]

what's a good resource to learn how to mod the game?

[lethal ridge]

what if you add more into the voucher

like this
voucher = "v_tarot_tycoon", "v_tarot_merchant",

[vast lily]

@soft echo https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki this has been helpful for me

[lethal ridge]

idk im new to modding so dont expect this to work

[vast lily]

considered it but i dont think itd work since , is used to denote line breaks

[soft echo]

thank you. wanting to make a mod but didn't know where to start

[lethal ridge]

then what if you put a table? maybe it will work

[glacial bloom]

The badge color won't change. In game, it is still the default color

[lethal ridge]

{
voucher,
voucher2
}

[vast lily]

ooo maybe

love me a good set of nested arrays

[sonic cedar]

so how would i return the actual score? i cant use stone_tally because it's considered a global...

[fallen osprey]

I did that but it just isnt showing up in the collection

[vast lily]

looks like balatro doesnt share my passion for nested arrays

[lethal ridge]

rip

[frosty dock]

you can pass a table as vouchers

[vast lily]

u are the goat

thanks

[fallen osprey]

nevermind it appeared

[lethal ridge]

wait whatt

SMODS.load_file()

u can load extra lua files?

[frosty dock]

yep

[sonic cedar]

omg its john smods,,,

[glacial bloom]

Does anybody know why the badge color doesnt change in the game? It is still the default color

[minor furnace]

as best as I can understand, card.T.r controls card rotation? I've tried changing its value in set_sprites but it doesn't appear to do anything

[thin anchor]

no idea what this means i did not touch anything related to the atlas
please help me

[crisp elbow]

He dead 😭

My poor doise…

[minor furnace]

anyone know the proper way to do sprite rotation?

[red flower]

you need to copy that code to where you want to use it

[sonic cedar]

i did though?

unless you mean i need to also put it somewhere in the calculate function?

[lethal ridge]

i think i should put my mod onto github

[red flower]

yes the local and the for loop need to be in the context you need to use it too

[sonic cedar]

ohhh ok

ill do that rq

[sonic cedar]

?

[red flower]

yes but it's not card.ability.extra.stone_tally, just stone_tally

[sonic cedar]

ok thanks

didnt catch thanks

i said thanks twice

but yeah ill see if it works

it works! thanks!

[thin anchor]

make it so the dead doise summons peddito and crashes your game

[fallen osprey]

consumable didnt have a texture so I added atlas and its crashing, please help

[open aspen]

if using a a calculate function within a card, can I get the index of the card im calculating from? I want to do an effect that depends on the card to the right of the playing card with my enhancement

like eg in played hand, can i get the index of my card

and do something to index + 1?

[sullen fern]

actually the idea for doise was that he switches between dead and alive

[thin anchor]

oh

[gentle rain]

isnt that like the mother 3 placeholder asset or am i mistaken

that looks SO familiar

[open aspen]

it might be the pokemon missingno texture

not the well known one

obviously

[gentle rain]

ye

[open aspen]

it is

[sullen fern]

its decamark

[open aspen]

its decamark!!!

https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Ten_question_marks

[sullen fern]

my beloved

[open aspen]

anyone know?

[sullen fern]

i need to exclude specific cards from the soul pool

like the antimatter card

and the dead doise

[lethal ridge]

to make a rarity

change the weight of the rarity right?

how would i make a rarity between rare and legendary? what weight should i set it to?

[sullen fern]

how would i have specific legendary cards be excluded from the soul pool

[open aspen]

something like this?

im not sure how it works tho exactly

[sullen fern]

hm

if i’m able to control the specific pools cards can appear in

[lethal ridge]

how does this work?

[open aspen]

the thing is

i think legendaries automatically go to the soul pool

or something

[open aspen]

maybe i can rephrase

is there any way to check if a card is equal to another

eg if i have an array of cards (my played hand) and my card with an enhancement, is there a way I could loop over all played cards in the array until there is a card equal to my card (e.g a really long winded way to find the index my card is at)

[sullen fern]

well i would like that not to happen

[minor furnace]

how do I render the sprite of a custom consumable upside down?

[open aspen]

(if it never flips right side up u could just flip the actual sprite)

but i assume u wouldnt ask if it wasnt both

even then idk if its possible but you could have a separate sprite and change the pos value when it needs to be flipped

to be the separate flipped one

[sullen fern]

maybe i could create a fake legendary rarity

so that way, they’re not included in the soul pool, but they’re still classified as legendary in some way

[minor furnace]

I do currently have separate sprites that are flipped upside down. My intention with this is to use it for my reverse tarot cards, and I wanted it to be compatible if people have custom sprites for their regular tarot cards

so if they have modded card skins, it shows them flipped upside down

[lethal ridge]

what is the default weight of a rare?

i want to make a rarity between rare and legendary and i dont know what to set the weight to

[open aspen]

ohhh

[sullen fern]

what's the color code of the legendary badge

[open aspen]

it must be in the source code

[minor furnace]

so it's less of a functionality thing and more of a cosmetic/qol thing

[sullen fern]

hm, where?

[open aspen]

one of these?

[sullen fern]

oh

[open aspen]

its not labeled for some reason

[sullen fern]

i'm assuming it's the last one

[open aspen]

its really easy

just rename balatro.exe to balatro.zip and extract

sorry

i lied

just get like 7-zip and literally extract the exe itself

[sullen fern]

why not check the lovely dumps?

[tepid crow]

not every file gets modified and therefore dumped

[open aspen]

anyone know please 🙏

[fallen osprey]

if i wanted to have a consumable create a planet card, tarot card, or spectral, what should I use to say to make one of those, like is it just 'Planet' or something else

[minor furnace]

set_sprites() seems like it would be the function I'd want to use for it, but there's not a lot of documentation for how to actually do sprite manipulation

[fallen osprey]

are you sure?

[minor furnace]

no, that's why I'm asking here lmao

[sullen fern]

completely indistiguishable ingame

[fallen osprey]

oh skyward tardis sorry i didn't mean to be taken seriously i've got no clue either sorry again

[open aspen]

are you sure?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1233186615086813277/1352811484538998836/are-you-sure-v0-zyqckly073qe1.webp?ex=67df5f5f&is=67de0ddf&hm=969c2e266827c147d7c7140c17ac3c5f110a1093d29de904be19c70cc5c11211&

[sullen fern]

now to try and impliment the whole "switching between dead and alive" thing

[minor furnace]

you're good lol

[fallen osprey]

are you sure?

[open aspen]

oh god

[sullen fern]

how would i do that

[open aspen]

we need an are you sure joker

[open aspen]

wouldnt it be easier to dynamically change the texture

over having two jokers that are technically the same joker

[sullen fern]

yes but they both have different effects

[open aspen]

you can make a variable to track whether its dead or alive

based on that do a specific effect

[lethal ridge]

is it a good idea to make a lua file for each joker or make one huge lua file with all jokers?

[open aspen]

not sure when it becomes dead or alive though

[sullen fern]

i usually do one lua with every joker of a specific type

[lethal ridge]

okay thanks

ill do that too

[sullen fern]

i want it to be alive on even numbered rounds and dead on odd numbered rounds

[fallen osprey]

guess who's finally getting his powers?

[dense adder]

I cannot figure out why G.GAME.current_round.luckyNum_card.id returns nil
i've been trying to figure out the return for Rank from the hook, that shows up correctly on the joker. but G.GAME.current_round.luckyNum_card.id does not output as anything

    config = {extra = {rank_mod = 14, xMult = 1.25}},
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
      return { vars = { localize(G.GAME.current_round.luckyNum_card.rank, 'ranks'), card.ability.extra.xMult} }
    end,
    
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        if context.cardarea == G.play and context.scoring_hand and context.individual then
          if context.other_card:get_id() == G.GAME.current_round.luckyNum_card.id then
            return{
              message = localize { type = 'variable', key = 'a_xmult', vars = { card.ability.extra.xMult } },
              Xmult_mod = card.ability.extra.xMult
            }
          end
        end
      --calc end
    end
}


---hook [Used by Lucky Number/]
local igo = Game.init_game_object
function Game:init_game_object()
  local ret = igo(self)
  ret.current_round.luckyNum_card = { rank = 'Ace' }
  return ret
end

function SMODS.current_mod.reset_game_globals(run_start)
    -- The rank changes every round taken from example
    G.GAME.current_round.luckyNum_card = { rank = 'Ace' }
    local valid_luckyNum_cards = {}
    for _, v in ipairs(G.playing_cards) do
        if not SMODS.has_no_rank(v) then -- Abstracted enhancement check for jokers being able to give cards additional enhancements
          valid_luckyNum_cards[#valid_luckyNum_cards + 1] = v
        end
    end

end

[open aspen]

im using some util code that just pulls all files from a folder and SMODS.load_file on them

[open aspen]

are yous ure

[open aspen]

i think then if you did it within the joker it could work. You can have a variable for whether its dead or alive

[fallen osprey]

ok im done goodnight fellas

[open aspen]

if dead display the texture of dead etc

and if dead do the specific effect

[sullen fern]

i still need to think of the actual joker effects for each state

[open aspen]

then ig on blind select you can have it die by changing the variable

or come alive

[sullen fern]

and have the description dynamically change

[open aspen]

yea

[open aspen]

ok guys PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME

[sullen fern]

eg. “x whatever for y thing (the doise is currently alive!)”

[open aspen]

like even if theres just a way to check if cards are equal my problem is solved

i can go from there

[lethal ridge]

how do i reference to my folders in my mod

i want my main lua file to run everysingle lua file in a folder

[old bane]

will trying to spawn a joker with a rarity that has default_weight = 0 prevent it from spawning anything but a Jimbo? because idk what's wrong with my rarity esp because the only other rarity i have works fine when trying to spawn it from another card/tag

[sullen fern]

then when its dead it switches to “x whatever for y thing (the doise is currently dead!)”

[open aspen]

i made a util file with this code

[lethal ridge]

thanks!

[open aspen]

and i made a definitions file with this code

[lethal ridge]

but what is UTM in this case

[sullen fern]

i assume i can do the same thing with blank card turning into antimatter card

[open aspen]

where each entry is the name of the enhancement (in this case i have a tagger.lua file so i wrote "tagger")

[sullen fern]

though antimatter card is legendary and blank card is rare

[open aspen]

in my main file i have this

[slender mango]

iterate over scoring_hand maybe?

[open aspen]

UTM will be defined in ur main file

you can name it whatever

[lethal ridge]

ok thanks so much

[open aspen]

i named it UTM cause my mod is called Untitled Tag Mod

and then u load file the definitions file and util file u made with that code

then u can just call UTM.load_cards(UTM.cardtype, "path to the folder with all ur cards of that type")

[open aspen]

ofc this means for every card u add you need to make a new entry in the tables in definitions

[lethal ridge]

okay thanks goat

[sullen fern]

so i'm probably gonna have to remove the loc_txt section from my joker and do it inside the localization file

[open aspen]

so i have a table for enhancements, once i add jokers ill make a table for jokers the same way

[sullen fern]

if i want it to dynamically switch

[open aspen]

you will yea

i thin

[sullen fern]

let me do that real quick

[open aspen]

idk for sure but i do know i saw something like that

[open aspen]

yes, but can i just check if self == scoring_hand[i]

[slender mango]

probably with
if scoring_hand[i] == card

[sullen fern]

i saw this while looking at the balatro mod wiki

i'll have to investigate for myself

[open aspen]

does that work tho

like cause these arent just numbers

they are tables representing card objects i believe

[slender mango]

i feel like it should

[old bane]

how do i make a joker rarity not available in shop but available to be spawned in by cards like Soul?

[open aspen]

same

[open aspen]

just make it a legendary?

[old bane]

yeah but like

i don't want it from soul specifically

i want it from my modded soul which spawns specifically that rarity

[slender mango]

set weight to 0 probably

[old bane]

i'm doing that and im just getting jimbo whenever i try to spawn one in

[lethal ridge]

mod = {
    items = {
        'elusivejokers'
    }
}

for path, file in ipairs(mod) do
    SMODS.load_file(path .. '/' .. file .. '.lua')()
end

so something like this right?

[open aspen]

no

[narrow maple]

Anyone have clues on this?

[open aspen]

alright look here

[sullen fern]

hm

[open aspen]

this is what i have in terms of loading stuff

[lethal ridge]

okay

[open aspen]

the only thing in main_util is this function (it uses UTM in it because eventually I load it to my main.lua file and that is where UTM is defined)

in card defs i have tables created for each card type (atm i have only 1 card which is an enhancement)

[lethal ridge]

ohh

[open aspen]

and the entries correspond exactly to the name of my lua files

[sullen fern]

yeah i don't really understand what's going on

[lethal ridge]

UTM is a variable defined in the main.lua right?

[open aspen]

now in main i have this

[sullen fern]

but im glancing at this...

[open aspen]

u can see UTM = {} at the top

then we load file on the main_util and cardDefs in our main.lua

[lethal ridge]

wait so if u load the util file

the function inside the util will also be available in the main file?

[open aspen]

Yes because we did it as UTM.load_cards in our util file

[open aspen]

imagine load_file as literally taking the code from the other file and putting it in main.lua

then it makes more sense on why it works

[lethal ridge]

i understand it now

thank you goat

[sullen fern]

this'll probably solve the whole "changing the description dynamically" thing

[open aspen]

im not sure if thats 100% accurte on how it works but 🤷‍♂️

yea and then u can see at the bottom i load all cards in the UTM.enhancements table i made in defs

and also thats where i put the actual path to where the card defs are

[manic rune]

anyone used blind calculation before?

[minor furnace]

well, I've still got nothing for rotating sprites

[open aspen]

beautiful

[open aspen]

i definitely have not

[manic rune]

is there anything wrong with this

[minor furnace]

what do you mean by this

[sullen fern]

i want it to change the soul sprite as well

[manic rune]

calculation in blinds exists mow

now

so im trying to get it working

[open aspen]

what does calculation in blinds mean

like literally a blind

like a boss blind u made

[manic rune]

yes

[minor furnace]

I don't see a calculate function on the wiki

[manic rune]

before calculate function didnt exist

[manic rune]

so you would have to do some wonky stuff to get some otherwise basic functions going

...i dont really know what the contexts are though

[open aspen]

is the api docs even updated

[manic rune]

nop

[open aspen]

ok i cant help cause im big stupid without docs

well maybe i can

if i check the repo

[manic rune]

SMODS.Blind didnt even have the calculate added yet :3

[open aspen]

WHAT

ugh

[maiden river]

we need a version of the "read the fucking docs" gif but with a big red X over it

[open aspen]

ok i really cant help then

[maiden river]

to represent stuff that's not documented

[open aspen]

yall

please

[red flower]

I LOVE UNDOCUMENTED FUNCTIONS

[manic rune]

WE ALL LOVE UNDOCUMENTED FUNCTIONS 🗣️

[open aspen]

is there an easy way to get the index of the enhancement I made in the played hand

can i literally just loop over the cards and say self == played_hand[i]

[red flower]

i haven't used them yet but calculate in blinds should be exactly the same as any other object

[open aspen]

or something

[manic rune]

...im just gonna print out the entire context table

and see how to get it working

[vast lily]

[DEBUFFED] This GIF's abilities are disabled.

[red flower]

yes

[open aspen]

oh thank you sir

[manic rune]

then joker_main should work, right?

it doesn't

[maiden river]

goddammit 😭

[manic rune]

💔

[red flower]

well its not a joker

its not called blind_main

[manic rune]

fair point, what context would i use for the same timing though

[red flower]

let me see the code

[manic rune]

much thanks 🙏

[open aspen]

why is scoring_hand = scoring_hand

like wait if i want to use this context how do I as a developer access the scoring hand now

[manic rune]

context.scoring_hand

[open aspen]

ty 🙏

[red flower]

probably final_scoring_step, you can use other_joker as well maybe

[manic rune]

mmm

oke i will try that, thanks :D

[dense adder]

is there anything else i could use past G.GAME.current_round.luckyNum_card.id to get a changing rank per rounds id this for some reason will return nil from me

[manic rune]

:3 what the fuck

[open aspen]

bro typed xmult=.5 and the game died

[manic rune]

it seems to be the same for other contexts

[open aspen]

(can i check/set the edition/enhancement/seal of cards easily)

[manic rune]

what the hell

[open aspen]

i cannot find the docs

[sullen fern]

this is what i'm gonna make doise do
swap between having it do mult when scored and chips when scored

[manic rune]

most of those are already included in the base game's code itself

[sullen fern]

and debuffing specific rank cards

[open aspen]

how does one do that

sorry for the dumb questions 💀

[manic rune]

card.edition.key will return you the key of the edition

edition can be nil though, so i suggest checking that

[open aspen]

would setting that change the edition?

[manic rune]

nop

thats just for getting the key

you use card:set_edition() for that one

[open aspen]

ok tbh its probably easier if i explain what the functionality im doing is: i want to swap the enhancements of two cards

oh okay

[keen tiger]

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I have a project idea that would require a mod but I'm unsure where to start. Is there a wiki/guide to modding available somewhere?

[open aspen]

i assume there would be :set_enhancement(), and that card.enhancement.key would be nil as well if it has none right?

[manic rune]

nop

that would be set_ability

[open aspen]

cool

[minor furnace]

I will be back in 45 minutes to continue attempting to figure out consumable sprite rotation

[open aspen]

would card.ability.key give me the key then?

[manic rune]

card:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS["enhancement_key"], nil, true)

[manic rune]

...i dont think so, but i also dont remember how to get its key

[open aspen]

self.ability.name?

[twilit cargo]

might be card.config.center_key

[sullen fern]

time to spend millions of hours trying to get the doise to work

[twilit cargo]

oh wait for the enhancement?

[open aspen]

why is there no docs on SMODS.center

😭

[manic rune]

mhm

[keen tiger]

Another stupid question: Are balatro mods limited to specifically just card/mechanic additions or can you literally just do whatever as long as it doesnt crash

[sullen fern]

cryptid

[open aspen]

ive seen mods that literally force u to play boss blinds consecutively

[keen tiger]

I don't know if there are or where modding resources are so I'm presumably going to be asking a lot of stupid questions here

[open aspen]

so

probably not

[hardy viper]

separated between the different center subclasses

[manic rune]

i am so

confused

is this wrong??
-# its the calculate function of a blind

[rancid lily]

hi, someone knows why is this? I don´t understand

[open aspen]

wait is it possible to have two enhancements on a card

[keen tiger]

Is there any starter guide for modding?

[open aspen]

that would let me get around this issue because i would like that to be the behaviour of the card anyways

[rancid bridge]

doise, you say..?

[keen tiger]

I just need the starting point and whatever scraps of api docs there are and then I'll leave you all alone lol

[twilit cargo]

omg hi i made ur decor

[open aspen]

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

[rancid bridge]

hello!!! it's very pretty i like it

[keen tiger]

thank you so much

ill get out of your hair now

[twilit cargo]

thank uuuu !! i always love seeing people in the wild using them ur the first ive encountered here

[sullen fern]

so all i really need the doise card to do is
swap to being dead on odd numbered rounds and alive on even numbered rounds

[open aspen]

can someone explain quantum enhancements to me?

[sullen fern]

and swap between mult and chips

well, xmult

actually, nop

just mult

[dense adder]

sorry for spamming this, found the answer, had to find the base games functions

[open aspen]

ok nvm i guess quantum enhancments suck

can i just have two enhancements on a card?

[sullen fern]

now how do i do the whole "swapping between dead and alive" thing

[manic rune]

#1349064230825103441

[open aspen]

or, perhaps is it even possible to implement a 4th addition type for cards

[keen tiger]

stupid question: does smods have the ability to read/write game state

[open aspen]

outside seals editions and enhancements

[manic rune]

i think so?

[keen tiger]

awesome 🙂

[sullen fern]

of course, i need to have the "dead" variable be set to true on odd round and false on even rounds

[open aspen]

set the variable, im not sure if its possible to get the round number from calculate

probably is

but i wouldnt know how

[sullen fern]

maybe i could do the swap per round

so like

[modern kindle]

could just make it swap on context.end_of_round

[sullen fern]

when the round ends the doise dies

so like, will "pos_override" and "soul_pos_override" do anything

[open aspen]

anyone know?

[sullen fern]

"pos_override" is in the cassette block code already so i believe that'll work

i just don't know about "soul_pos_override"

[modern kindle]

kinda, quantum enhancements exist

you can return the enhancements of more than 1 for a single card

so you can have gold and steel or whatever

[open aspen]

does that make all compatible by default, or can i define it myself

or like how does that work

ive heard about them but dont know how to use them

[thin anchor]

all of these commands in DebugPlus dont work. can anyone tell me why?

[sullen fern]

so yeah, that's what i'm gonna do.

it'll swap every time the round ends.

[modern kindle]

i know you need enable it as an optional feature, SMODS.optional_features.quantum_enhancements = true

but i havent yet implemented them myself so i cant go too much further than that, i presume you can search quantum enhancements in the chat here

[sullen fern]

so the "dead" variable needs to be set to true when the round ends

if the doise is dead, then it needs to show the dead description and texture

basically.
on the end of the round, set "dead" to true

if "dead" is true, use the alternate description and texture

repeat for becoming alive again

[modern kindle]

they were working fine for me earlier today, i can only assume you either reinstall it, or something you did today broke it in your mod

[thin anchor]

i just installed it not too long ago

[open aspen]

yea that i know

now to figure out how they wor

if context.check_enhancement and context.other_card.config.center.key == 'm_gold' then
  return { m_steel = true }
end

this is code i found

i assume i can just do if context.check_enhancement then return {m_tagger = true}

im not sure if i can though

wait tbh idk how this works

[sullen fern]

i'll do the main code first, then i'll figure out how changing the texture dynamically works

[modern kindle]

i believe i saw you can just return whatever enchancement so you can give it a go

[open aspen]

cause like i just want my enhancement to not be overwritten by others, or overwrite others thats all

[sullen fern]

this means i need to change the description when "dead" is true

[open aspen]

its not a joker that makes enhancements compatible

fml bro

[sullen fern]

how do i do that

it sounds simple but

it's probably sorta complex

[manic rune]

hi dillyyyyy

[open aspen]

why is this wrong

this whole code might be wrong honestly, its supposed to swap the enhancements of two cards

[minor furnace]

all right, time to lock tf in and figure out how to rotate a sprite

[sullen fern]

i need to lock in myself

i need doise DONE

[open aspen]

LOCK IN

[rancid bridge]

i'm trying to make a joker that gives +25 chips for every ace in your hand...
i very much need help

[open aspen]

LOCK IN ^

[sullen fern]

if only i could figure out how to do the whole "swapping between two different descriptions

[minor furnace]

GET IT TWISTED

[open aspen]

GET IT TWISTED

[minor furnace]

your actions influence nothing

[rancid bridge]

how do i do this

[open aspen]

YOUR A ROUNDING ERROR ON A FORTUNE 500 COMPANIES BALANCE SHEET

[minor furnace]

your fate is predetermined, the only thing you can change is your reaction to it

GET IT TWISTED

[sullen fern]

then i could lock in

[open aspen]

YOU CAN DO ANYTHING IN THIS LIFE

[sullen fern]

actually i should just get the whole "swapping between dead and alive" thing done

[open aspen]

yall how do i print

[sullen fern]

before i do any texture and text swapping shenanigans

[open aspen]

like

if i do print("") where can i see it

[minor furnace]

Northernlion is the best

I remember him back from the Isaac days

[sullen fern]

please sort your salad before proceeding

[open aspen]

u have recommendations for northernlion

i just got into watching him

[native zinc]

is there a way to detect if something is retriggered

[open aspen]

id like to print some tables

[rancid bridge]

help‼️

[minor furnace]

his Isaac Afterbirth+/repentance videos are great

[sullen fern]

anyways! how do i do this specific thing

i know its like

end of round context related

[open aspen]

see this link for more info about context stuff

how do print statements work

[minor furnace]

if it's a joker, you can store a variable in the config.extra

[sullen fern]

that's what i'm doing

which is the "dead" variable

[minor furnace]

print("hello world!")

[open aspen]

yes

where does said print go

like does it straight up show up in game

[sullen fern]

basically, when the doise is dead, it uses chips instead of mult

[minor furnace]

yeah it should if you have debugplus

[open aspen]

cool thx

[sullen fern]

so i want to set chips to a specific amound and mult to 0 when the doise dies

and return them to normal when hes alive again

[minor furnace]

it also shows up in the command line thing that pops up when you boot the game

[minor furnace]

so you'd want to check the value of the variable in your calculate function, probably during context.joker_main

[sullen fern]

cassete block does this for it's alternate description

well first i'd want to do the whole "even cards scpre mult and odd cards are debuffed" thing

should i do the swapping first or this first

[minor furnace]

if you want to update the description you could probably do something checking variables in your loc_vars() and returning different values accordingly

[sullen fern]

so do i like

put "dead" in loc vars instead

[twilit cargo]

evil

[mellow widget]

when using the G.C. stuff for color, how would i do yellow?

[minor furnace]

yeah something like that

[sullen fern]

instead of it being in extra

[minor furnace]

like, if dead == 0 you return "alive", else you return "dead"

[sullen fern]

\

actually no thats not how you do it

[minor furnace]

    return {vars = {"alive"}}
else
    return {vars = {"dead"}}
end```

[rancid bridge]

i do need help though

[sullen fern]

yeah, this is happening.

[open aspen]

whats the correct way to get the enhancement of a card

cause this is not it

[red flower]

where are you stuck at

[minor furnace]

card.ability.extra.dead

[open aspen]

^

[rancid bridge]

i am stuck at the effect part
i have no clue how to make it

[red flower]

I mean I can write it for you but that wouldn't help you learn much lol have you looked at the wiki and the example mods?

[open aspen]

i think you can just return {"alive"}

[rancid bridge]

not sure if there's an example of a joker checking your hand for any type of card in the example mods

[sullen fern]

okay, now what should i do next

should i, yknow, code the actual effect of the joker?

[red flower]

do you want each ace to give chips OR for the joker itself to give 25 * number of aces

[rancid bridge]

the joker itself

[sullen fern]

the whole "giving mult for all even cards but debuffing all odd rank cards"

and then doing the opposite when dead

[rapid stag]

...where does _generate_main_end(card) belong? nvm, forgot a comma

[sullen fern]

chips for odd rank cards but debuffing even rank cards

[red flower]

then you need to use context.joker_main and iterate through G.hand.cards to get all the aces then return { chips = card.ability.extra.your_chips_amount * ace_count }

[open aspen]

anyone know

[red flower]

SMODS.get_enhancements

[minor furnace]

I'd been using card.config.center.key to get the enhancement 💀

[open aspen]

will that return work with :set_ability?

this is the full code

[modern kindle]

if it works it works

[rancid bridge]

where do i even put that from here (i am stupid)

[red flower]

probably not, I think it returns a table because it counts quantum enhancements

[open aspen]

what if i have it off

omg i hate this so much

give me good documentation PLEASE

[minor furnace]

if for some reason it doesn't,card.config.center.key definitely does

[red flower]

you need to use calculate, i recommend reading the example jokers again

[minor furnace]

because I do this:

  G.hand.highlighted[i]:set_ability(rightmost.config.center.key)```

[open aspen]

the issue is that config.center gives me an error already here

[sullen fern]

i know how to make the joker give mult when cards are scored but i dont know how to have it do it for a specific rank type

that being even rank

[open aspen]

im sure it would work if i did card.config.center.key

[red flower]

im reading all of this off the documentation

[open aspen]

but context.scoring_hand[index + 1].config.center.key dont work

[modern kindle]

just have the joker look for even ranks in card:get_id

[rancid bridge]

okay i'll admit that was a slightly dumb question at the point i had it
i put the calculate thing there but now what

[open aspen]

ok well card.config.center.key just gives enhanced anyways

which isnt helpful

rn

[sullen fern]

time to put stuff in the calculate section

[rose dragon]

is there a general overall calculate function for blinds (similar to the joker calc function)

[modern kindle]

yea there is blind calc in latest smods, im not sure if the wiki is updated for it

[mellow widget]

how would i check for every joker with a specific badge i made?

[minor furnace]

if rightmost.config.center.key ~= "c_base" then
    G.hand.highlighted[i]:set_ability(rightmost.config.center.key)
end```

[red flower]

im just gonna write it

if context.joker_main then
    local ace_count = 0
    for _, playing_card in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
        if playing_card:get_id() == 14 then
            ace_count = ace_count + 1
        end
    end
    if ace_count > 0 then
        return {
            chips = 25 * ace_count
        }
    end
end

[rose dragon]

is the function just called "calculate" just like the jokers and has the same params, or is there more to it? (the wiki isn't updated)

[open aspen]

i printed it and thats what it gave me idk man

your thing makes more sense anyways

[minor furnace]

it gave you "enhanced"?

[modern kindle]

i think its just calculate?

i was able to use normal calcualte in a blind i made for someone today

calculate*

[open aspen]

yes

[rancid bridge]

thank you but i also feel very bad for making you suffer my stupidity

[native zinc]

tbf i want to do something like "+20 chips when something is retriggered"

i don't necessarily understand how this context does that

[sullen fern]

now, time to do the calculating thing.

[open aspen]

idk either that just seemed like the most pertinent thing

i only have docs to help ppl with

[minor furnace]

ok time to lock in and figure out card rotation for real now

[open aspen]

SMODS.get_enhancements(context.scoring_hand[index + 1])

also printing this gives an empty table, while printing SMODS.get_enhancements(card) prints my enhancement

[slow crater]

what, in balatro you can't make gif or webm jokers? only png?

[open aspen]

so that makes me think context.scoring_hand[index + 1] is not a playing card the same way that "card" is a playing card

[sullen fern]

no?

[minor furnace]

I don't think context.scoring_hand is a list of cards
misinformation

[red flower]

it is

[minor furnace]

oh nvm then

[open aspen]

why doesnt this work then

[sullen fern]

animated jokers use a specific atlas mode

[slow crater]

Well, I set everything up, but the game breaks.

[open aspen]

it should at least print like, base, or something

right?

i just played 3 sixes

one was enhanced with my custom enhancement

and it was the first card

[red flower]

what's index

[minor furnace]

maybe you need to do a for k, v in pairs(context.scoring_hand)?

[open aspen]

i am doing that

[native zinc]

no because that context only applies when something is retriggered

[slow crater]

I want to add an animated joker, do you know how to write the code to make it work?

[native zinc]

i want to detect retriggers

[sullen fern]

sorry, i don't

[slow crater]

(

[open aspen]

yes? so just check if ur in that context

[sullen fern]

never did one before

[native zinc]

global retriggers

[open aspen]

i might be missing something

[native zinc]

not retriggers on the joker

[open aspen]

theres retrigger contexts for everything

[slow crater]

do you know what kind of animated jokers there are in balatro, that i took an example from them. it's just that they are all static there

[minor furnace]

also generally if I'm indexing I do
for i=1, #contxt.scoring_hand do

[open aspen]

or something idk exactly what each context does

[open aspen]

this is the same thing

i believe

unless i have a large fundamental misunderstanding somewhere (entirely possible)

[sullen fern]

cryptid has jimball

[native zinc]

i don't want a context i want something that is called when anything is retriggered

so i can forloop it

[open aspen]

what is ur goal

end goal

[slow crater]

what?

[native zinc]

"+20 chips when card is retriggered"

[sullen fern]

the mod, cryptid

[native zinc]

like via red seal or whatever

[open aspen]

cryptid mod has jimball

[open aspen]

for a joker

right?

[sullen fern]

it has an animated joker called jimball

[native zinc]

yes and i dont want to hardcode

[open aspen]

thats when u want to use context

[native zinc]

context.retrigger_joker just retriggers the joker

[open aspen]

thats not what that does

[slow crater]

thanks

i will check

[open aspen]

i think

i mean it definitely doesnt retrigger it

[native zinc]

. it is searching if the joker is being retriggered

it doesnt no

if the joker is retriggered then its it's in that context

that's still not what i what

[open aspen]

yea

u need for playing cards

[slow crater]

1 or 2?

[modern kindle]

then just do context.repetition

[open aspen]

1

[red flower]

is this

[open aspen]

im not sure if the docs are specifically saying it only works for jokers or not

but

yea

it seems ton be only jokers by the text

[open aspen]

guys why the fuck is this happening please help me

[red flower]

no idea

[sullen fern]

okay, time to actually code the joker......

and the effect of the joker....

which is debuffing odd rank cards and giving mult for even rank ones

[open aspen]

see even if i print the enhancement of "otherCard" it gives me the tagger enhancement, so why does just getting the card at the next index not fuggin work

[native zinc]

isn't this for adding repetitions and not detecting them

i'm still doing this in joker.main

[modern kindle]

yea it is, i had misunderstood what you wanted

[open aspen]

ok i think i understood it better

[open aspen]

i believe if a card has no enhancement, that function returns an empty table

[native zinc]

context.post_trigger is for effects after a Joker has triggered

[sullen fern]

first! the mult

which is only for even rank cards

[red flower]

yes, and the extra check is for checking after it has triggered in a retrigger context, isn't that what you want?

[native zinc]

i'm detecting card retriggers

[red flower]

oh i read jokers

[native zinc]

oh its maybe card.ability.extra.retriggers

[sullen fern]

how would i have mult be scored only when even cards are scored

[native zinc]

i'm just reading source code atp

[gusty iron]

how do i spawn a joker using debugplus?

[sullen fern]

3

[native zinc]

go to collection

[red flower]

press 3 in the collection

[native zinc]

press 3

[gusty iron]

and if i dont have it in my collection?

[sullen fern]

2 to unlock it

[sonic cedar]

-# you can hold Tab to see the command list

[red flower]

you might need post_trigger too, and check for context.other_context.repetition and that context.other_ret has repetitions (just some ideas)

[manic rune]

gkfnfnf

i give up

[modern kindle]

bepisss

[gusty iron]

gg

[manic rune]

blind calculate is confusing

💔

[modern kindle]

make it un confusing

[rapid stag]

~~i'm just getting attempting to call nil value errors

switching between self and card doesn't change anything, nor does doing [1] for either.

commenting out the four function calls i do before the return reveals that it's not the cause.

have no idea why this is happening or what i'm doing wrong here

...actually, what am i doing, why don't i just store my desired text to set as a variable~~
oh my god i mispelled my function name

[manic rune]

hiii

[manic rune]

returning xmult in literally all context possible crashes

[modern kindle]

whatre you tryna do

[slow crater]

in general, when installing the crypted mod, it asked to also install the talisman mod, like it doesn't work without it, but after installation the game breaks, it goes to the menu, and then you press any button and an error

[manic rune]

uhh

after playing a hand

X0.5 Mult

[red flower]

evil

[open aspen]

great so this mod somehow is breaking cryptid?

how

tf

[manic rune]

-# there's x0.5 chips too but i gotta get the mult working first

[slow crater]

like there is no steamodded?

[red flower]

you need to update it

[manic rune]

update your smods

[worthy gull]

Heya anyone have any links to a quick guide for modding balatro?

[red flower]

bepis!!!

[minor furnace]

for rotating cards, I'm wondering if I might need to hook into CardArea:align_cards()

[open aspen]

im not crazy right? nothing here is referencing my mod (untitled tag mod)

[red flower]

just coded the hardest thing i ever had to do

[open aspen]

after adding this code its killing cryptid somehow

[gusty iron]

could someone send me a repository of how to do alot of things with jokers? or is it just trial and error

[red flower]

https://github.com/Steamodded/examples/ also https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1349064230825103441

[sullen fern]

the description works, at least

[open aspen]

gives + nil mult

loc vars be damned

guys is there anything wrong with how i do this

cause this is crashing the game entirely

[open aspen]

with this log

[rancid bridge]

damn it
what does it mean...

[sullen fern]

the problem is i don't know how to make it show the mult var

becaus elike

[rancid bridge]

do i need to post my whole lua file for people to check..

[open aspen]

this is my card

[modern kindle]

wait, cant you just look at fuckin

flint is it
cuts chips and mult in half

[open aspen]

you see that #1#

i believe that refers to the first thing in the table you return in loc vars

[sonic cedar]

fix the quotations on your atlas key

[open aspen]

in my case

[sullen fern]

how do i make it not show nil mult

[rancid bridge]

do they need to be the double ones?

[stray warren]

Your if statement is outside of the loc_vars function

[open aspen]

look at how i did mine

[open aspen]

also this (i assume u realized that tho)

[sonic cedar]

where extra

[native zinc]

yeah i have to context.post_trigger and context.other_context.retrigger_joker

[open aspen]

anyone know why? am i doing something bad practice?

[open aspen]

i dont need it
