[tepid crow]

I certainly wouldn't bet on the first

you gotta perkelele all over them (idk what you mean by "dynamic descriptions")

[graceful magnet]

if I was editing the wrong file none of these would appear in the Collection

all of my Jokers are on the same file

[tepid crow]

change the name (not key) to catboy and see if it changes in game

[graceful magnet]

yeah

[minor furnace]

chat I think that's a little strong for Uncommon

[graceful magnet]

now I made 5 Jokers at once, and 2 of them worked

[modern kindle]

youre right, lets make it common

[tepid crow]

idk, reinstall steamodded?

[graceful magnet]

and the three that didn't work all have a calculate

I wasn't surprised this didn't work but I'm kinda baffled it doesn't

[graceful magnet]

I did

like

half an hour ago

[tepid crow]

did you fully reinstall by deleting the old one?

[graceful magnet]

fully gone right now, and all except for my mod on top are currently disabled

I will reinstall

[paper zealot]

This is always returning 30/30 and ignoring the result of the RNG check, so I guess the problem lies with those

[graceful magnet]

I have somehow gone down a version?

[tepid crow]

Yes, but #💻・modding-dev message

[paper zealot]

Ah. Hmmmmmmm

[tepid crow]

you got the release instead of the latest dev, shouldn't really matter

[graceful magnet]

Still nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[worthy stirrup]

oops?

[paper zealot]

Is there another mod present changing the id of playing cards? (?!)

[graceful magnet]

there are no other mods

[minor furnace]

are you starting a new run every time you test changes?

[graceful magnet]

urgh I turned off DebugPlus so that's a no right now

[stark geode]

game balence? whats that

[tepid crow]

don't think they are but I also don't think that should matter if they tried just return {mult=30, money=30}

you can try re-enabling db+ and starting a new run though

[minor furnace]

I would recommend doing that

[graceful magnet]

currently the code is still ignoring the probability checks

NOTHING!!!

[minor furnace]

I've found often times when I change a joker's code I need to start a new run or else I get unintended results

[tepid crow]

I thought that was only a config thing 🤔

[stark geode]

wat

[worthy stirrup]

i have no idea

[minor furnace]

idk, but better safe than sorry

[tepid crow]

yeah true

[worthy stirrup]

theres a mod that fucking adds skill trees

[stark geode]

aw hell naw

[graceful magnet]

what fucking cosmic ray shit happened that my game instance specifically cannot make this card work

[worthy stirrup]

im not going through 55 pages of mods to see what mod does that

[tepid crow]

Grim

[worthy stirrup]

thank you

[stark geode]

works for me

[tepid crow]

time to start putting prints everywhere and see what's happening

[stark geode]

idk what you did

[minor furnace]

ah print(), my best friend

[tepid crow]

I'm getting reaction bombed

[worthy stirrup]

theres 55 mod pages in this modpack

[graceful magnet]

hurray

time to see what doesn't show up

HAHA

NONE OF IT

not even the context.individual check

[worthy stirrup]

why did my dumbass try to render 900 cards at once

[stark geode]

i feel like this has to do with how psedoseed works

[tepid crow]

put one on top of the calculate function, above the first if checks

[graceful magnet]

if it was pseudoseed at all, I still would've gotten 3 print results back

[minor furnace]

wait shouldn't it be pseudorandom() not psuedoseed()?

[graceful magnet]

I have used both

if it seems like a logical debug, I have tried it

[tepid crow]

yes, but also not relevant if it's not printing

[graceful magnet]

can you guess what doesn't show up

[tepid crow]

do prints show up when you put them in other places?

[minor furnace]

so uh I also copy/pasted it and it works just fine for me...

[graceful magnet]

yeah

[tepid crow]

"works on every machine except mine" moment

[sturdy compass]

ouch

[tepid crow]

Welp. If the prints are showing up in other places, but not in calculate, that presumably means calculate isn't getting called; time to figure out why 🙃

[graceful magnet]

ah-

so one of the jokers I've already made, that I know works, and uses a calculate

just

doesn't

[sturdy compass]

smods moment?

[graceful magnet]

updated twice in the past hour

[sturdy compass]

bruh

[graceful magnet]

two

okay so if it uses a calculate, it doesn't work for me

[minor furnace]

that's wild

[sturdy compass]

insanely weird

[minor furnace]

and you have smods and lovely up to date

[stark geode]

i got it working

            end
        end
    end
}

you werent actually cheb=cking if your money or mult was hitting

you were just returning mult and money

[minor furnace]

that's not the problem

[tepid crow]

yes, there are issues in the code

but it's also just not executing

[minor furnace]

they intentionally took the check out

[digital niche]

im trying to do the animation of the card flipping and turning into another enhancement, am i missing something?

[stark geode]

ah

[tepid crow]

so we're dealing with that part first

[stark geode]

wait so it just

doesnt

[graceful magnet]

yeah all of my cards that use calculate are in fact, not calculating

[stark geode]

what did you do????

[sturdy compass]

Wtfff 😭

[tepid crow]

check if your lovely is up-to-date

[graceful magnet]

this is a unique to today problem as yesterday I made two jokers that use calculate

how do I go about updating lovely

[sturdy compass]

@last sentinel Hey looks like your problem might not be super unique

[tepid crow]

seems good to me?

[tepid crow]

actually, how about you send the most recent lovely log first? easier to spot issues

[digital niche]

my game os crashing when i add this to the code

[tepid crow]

with what crash?

[stark geode]

is this waht its supposed to do

[minor furnace]

what does the full code look like

[digital niche]

do i just send everything here? its a lot

[minor furnace]

actually wait

[minor furnace]

it's literally crashing on this because you're not in a function

[tepid crow]

how much lovely patches does your mod have?

[graceful magnet]

yes

[digital niche]

OH, tyty!

[graceful magnet]

the second one goes unused because a different solution was found

[digital niche]

is this right?

[graceful magnet]

the first one was one that someone here did for me back a month or so

[minor furnace]

indentation 💀

it doesn't matter, but it hurts my eyes

[digital niche]

what is indentation?

[tepid crow]

Wtf, this all seems fine. You might have to jump into the lovely dumps

[stark geode]

please tell me youre joking

[minor furnace]

nested statements should be further to the right than the previous ones

it's good practice at least

[graceful magnet]

my beloathed, I know what I'm doing in there even less

[stark geode]

required in python

[minor furnace]

not necessary in Lua, but it is in Python

[stark geode]

i cant read code without it

well i can

[minor furnace]

yeah it literally makes code readable

[stark geode]

but it hurts me

same with how my gf does variables

[digital niche]

ooh yeah yeah, i was correcting this!

[tepid crow]

If you're more comfortable with it, you can try making a new "minimum reproducible mod" and seeing if joker calculates work for that mod

[minor furnace]

also, this would flip your joker, not the card being enhanced I think

[digital niche]

wait, then how do i make it so the cards flip?

[minor furnace]

you should be flipping othercard

[stark geode]

its so cursed

[minor furnace]

I was choosing to ignore the indentation

[digital niche]

i didnt even notice LOLL

[peak obsidian]

Currently working on the Infinite Rank for my mod, how would you make it so the rank balances chips and mult after scoring?

[graceful magnet]

OUH

nope okay

[digital niche]

got a crash when trying to use the joker, it should make steel cards into "claws" card (a custom enhancement i made)

[normal crest]

instead of "claws" use "m_modprefix_claws"

[graceful magnet]

wow the funniest part of this whole thing is that calculate doesn't work for vanillas either

[minor furnace]

in addition to flipping the othercard, you'll need 3 loops to make it look "nice":

1. flip the necessary cards
2. enhance them
3. unflip them

[stark geode]

cooked

[graceful magnet]

wait

[stark geode]

uninstall and renistall

[graceful magnet]

wait

wait

wait

[minor furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-cat-huh-m4rtin-huh-huh-meme-what-cat-gif-27377993

[graceful magnet]

Yeah okay I know what's up now

To make one of the other jokers work, I may have also patched out the entirety of Card:calculate_joker

[minor furnace]

erm

[tepid crow]

mf I asked you what was in your lovely patches

[minor furnace]

what the scallop

[minor furnace]

what were you trying to do that you had to patch out the entire function

[graceful magnet]

I just have way too much faith in things

[stark geode]

this is why we hook

not patch

[graceful magnet]

the commented lines are what I'm imagining will fix it, I basically overwrote the whole thing accidentally

[stark geode]

-# def not because idk how patching works

[tepid crow]

oh you overwrote, not patched

[graceful magnet]

yeah

[tepid crow]

💀

[normal crest]

the original has 2 return values

so make sure to keep those in

[stark geode]

so what im seeing is you did hooking without hoooking the og function back in

[graceful magnet]

oh! uhhh how do I account for both of those

[normal crest]

local ret1, ret2 = caljoker(self, context)

return ret1, ret2

[minor furnace]

this was me but the other way around

patching felt way more intuititve

but now I do both

[stark geode]

when i was first told about it it made no sense

but eventuall i realized how it works

[red flower]

isn't this what context.other_consumeable is for

[minor furnace]

patching is you literally just injecting whatever line of code you want

[graceful magnet]

I'm gonna lose it

[stark geode]

waht were you trying to with this

[minor furnace]

y'all made a body pillow Joker?

[stark geode]

Wait were you trying to do an observatory

[graceful magnet]

yeah

[stark geode]

Lmao

Rip

First thing you check is if there's a context for what you are doing

At least that's what I do

[red flower]

this one is easy to miss at least

[stark geode]

Fair enough

Modders on their way to break a whole core game mechanic

[graceful magnet]

so you're telling me the past 2 hours could've been avoided if I had just done this

[red flower]

yes

[stark geode]

Yes

[minor furnace]

I can't think of the specific example, but I've come across a few contexts that are not mentioned in the wiki

[graceful magnet]

I'm gonna jump out of a 7th story window

[tepid crow]

modding be like

[minor furnace]

programming be like

in any capacity

[stark geode]

Well yeah, I have this habit of rummaging though the source code and the smods code for crap I need

[tepid crow]

I don't think I can stack overflow balatro mods though

[stark geode]

Stack overflow?

[tepid crow]

https://stackoverflow.com/

[stark geode]

I go to gpt with my problems/j

Jk jk

[tepid crow]

bout to vibe all over my codebase

[stark geode]

She vibin on my codebase til I debug

I'm so glad I got into programming

[graceful magnet]

EVERYTHING WORKS NOW

[stark geode]

It's so much fun

-# I wish I was dead

[stark geode]

Wwww

Do you have art for catgirl yet?

[tepid crow]

https://tenor.com/i5JalRtWHpr.gif

[minor furnace]

same

[stark geode]

That's what this chat is for

[stark geode]

Honestly it's a good skill to have

[minor furnace]

Ctrl+F is your best friend

[stark geode]

The more I read the better I understand the game

[stark geode]

The vs code search tool is a godsend

[minor furnace]

being able to search through all the files

[tepid crow]

I just github / the smods stuff lol

[stark geode]

I just leave the card file open in my workspace at all times

[minor furnace]

so do I

[stark geode]

The example jokers thing is always open

[red flower]

i have a picture of jimbo with me at all times

[stark geode]

All of us do, it comes with the source code

[minor furnace]

misc_functions and common_events also stay open for me

[red flower]

UI_definitions is better

[stark geode]

I should just have all of them open

[tepid crow]

I just have all of them open lol

bit annoying when it starts finding results in the image files though 🤣

[graceful magnet]

yes and now it has the very first flavor text tooltip in my mod to commemorate this occasion

[stark geode]

Me after I steal the code for DNA and make some small changes to it

[minor furnace]

Jimbo body pillow...

[stark geode]

Hey that's like perko template but reasonably balenced

[graceful magnet]

yeah I draw all of my own Jokers

[minor furnace]

this belongs on the subreddit

for sure

[stark geode]

I love it lol, it just need blahaj

[graceful magnet]

that's the first page of my second wave of modded Jokers done

[graceful magnet]

on the horizon

[minor furnace]

regigigas 👀

my man

[graceful magnet]

regigigas my son

[stark geode]

I try to make my own joker art but most of it is modified vanilla

[gilded narwhal]

guys why is it slightly wider

how do i fix this

[minor furnace]

based slow start mechanic

[gilded narwhal]

It's like 10 pixels

[stark geode]

Show me your atlas

[minor furnace]

X5 is strong for uncommon

[stark geode]

It takes 2 antes to get online tho

[stark geode]

Well that will do it

[graceful magnet]

there's also this

[minor furnace]

all in all not that long and if you get it in the first half of the game you're kind of set

[tepid crow]

that seems kinda weak ngl

[stark geode]

Would pair well with my mod, not for any good reason lol

(my mod is incredibly unbalanced)

(perkeo galore)

[tepid crow]

pair it with abandoned deck+sleeve 😼

(it becomes useless)

[thin anchor]

eat bricks

[minor furnace]

this reminds me of the Estrogen joker I saw that gained mult every time you convert something into a queen

[stark geode]

This is a video about bricks...

[graceful magnet]

mine is not the most unbalanced but sometimes I get a bit silly

[stark geode]

Nice lol

Mine are just whatever I feel like adding

That relates to perkeo

Like the perkolator

It makes perkeos

[slender mango]

hi i appear for 3 seconds just to disappear again

[stark geode]

All you need is a chad

[minor furnace]

this was the silliest I got with a joker

screenshot is old, but the sprite and name change as it levels up

[manic rune]

could just say at the end of round by that point ngl

[tepid crow]

I think he means "when score gets set on fire"

[manic rune]

ohh

[minor furnace]

yeah it's when the score is set on fire

[graceful magnet]

Siffrin/Triboulet is currently the leading naneinf strat in my mod and this is a fairly consistent strat because I have a deck that starts you with 2 Soul cards

[tepid crow]

which you should probably rephrase the card to if you haven't already tbh

[graceful magnet]

I have a Joker that checks for that

which does it really rudimentarily because Planet cards activate it and I should probably go fix that

[tepid crow]

lol

just keep selecting/unselecting straight flush during ante 1

[graceful magnet]

my other two Legendaries, which are not quite as silly billy as Mimetta and Siffrin

[minor furnace]

Mine uses context final scoring step, an calculates using the globals hand_chips, and mult iirc

[manic rune]

did u manage to fix the jokers btw

[stark geode]

I don't really have legendaries in my mod

It's all perkeo rarity

[graceful magnet]

yeah the problem was I wasn't using a context I could've used and instead overwrote the entire calculate function

[stark geode]

I have a "legendary" but half the meme is that it's common

So it has the weight of one

[graceful magnet]

was astonished when I got things working again that I'd actually coded this one correctly first try

[stark geode]

These are all pretty cool

[graceful magnet]

these are the other two I'd made today

[rapid stag]

is there a context that is called on save load and the state is during a blind?

it seems like something here is causing this error

[gilded narwhal]

art not by me

[tired skiff]

anyone know the hex color code of the money

nvm found it

[manic rune]

really nice art

[dense adder]

i have no clue why this is scoring at odd times, it scores before, after and during

   key = 'm_stain',
    loc_txt = {
      name = 'Stained Glass',
        text = {'{C:green}#1# in #2#{} chance for',
        '{X:chips,C:white}X#3#{} Chips',
        },
      },
    --img
    atlas = 'Silver_Atlas_SEP',
    pos = {x = 2, y = 0},
    --vars
    config = {extra = {odds = 4, xChips = 2}},
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
      return { vars = {(G.GAME.probabilities.normal or 1), card.ability.extra.odds, card.ability.extra.xChips} }
    end,
    
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.cardarea == G.play and context.scoring_hand then
            if pseudorandom('StainedGlass') < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / card.ability.extra.odds then
                return{
                  xchips = card.ability.extra.xChips
                }
            end
        end
    end

[graceful magnet]

yeah cuz it's being told to

when exactly do you want it to score

[dense adder]

only during scoring

[graceful magnet]

of?

[manic rune]

context.cardarea == G.play and context.individual already always refers to each card in scoring hand

[dense adder]

the playing cards that have this enchant

[graceful magnet]

yeah then context.cardarea == G.play and context.individual

[manic rune]

ur pseudorandom

i think it should just be a string

no need for pseudoseed inside it

[graceful magnet]

you don't have a check for the enhancement but that might be intentional if you're just testing to make sure the function works

[dense adder]

i know, it was being odd, make since it was a while since i made something with scoring cards

[red flower]

you probably want context.cardarea == G.play and context.main_scoring

[rapid stag]

i guess psuedoseed is specifically for random from element then

[rapid stag]

does anyone have an answer for this?

[stark geode]

toughts on the art for perkeo template

[tired skiff]

is it possible to give create a random joker with rental when not on gold stake

[red flower]

there's not, there's a load function

afaik

[graceful magnet]

yes! I have done so, it is very easy

[tired skiff]

may i please take a peek at the code

[graceful magnet]

even commented it

[tired skiff]

im trying to make a rental joker

i have the code to make a random rare joker

i want to add rental to it

[graceful magnet]

read the code and comments

[peak obsidian]

yayyyyyyyyyy i finally did something

[graceful magnet]

this basically walks you through adding any modifier to a joker

[tired skiff]

but isnt that to a alreddy existing joker

not one that is being created

or am i stupid

[graceful magnet]

the very first thing this does is create a new Joker

it spawns one to add these modifiers to

[tired skiff]

oh im blind

my bad

[peak obsidian]

i think i should make the inside of the yin-yang white, cause i think it looks bad when its given an enhancement

[rapid stag]

well i'm working on a joker that appears to not be loading from a saved state properly
at least in appearance

[tired skiff]

am i missing somthing

[dreamy thunder]

Rarity shlould be a number iirc

Numbers are on thr wiki

[graceful magnet]

1, 2, 3, and 4

C, U, R, L

[dreamy thunder]

No they dont work

With add_card

They're like 0.98 or sum

[stark geode]

or k_[mod prefix]_[rairity name]

for a modded rairty

[dreamy thunder]

And you can apply thr sticker eith add_card

Why do it seperately

[tired skiff]

what do i need to put in

[dreamy thunder]

stickers = {}

And fill the table with the stickers you wamt to apply

[tired skiff]

error

[dreamy thunder]

Code?

[dreamy thunder]

my last remaining braincell couldnt understand anything

Sorre

Itd 5 am

[red flower]

what's it doing

[rapid stag]

when i start a blind, i have it set a value and change its appearance. if i then quit to the main menu and then load the run, it reverts appearance. i don't know if the value is bad, though

[iron mantle]

I just tested it myself and it doesn't work 💀

[red flower]

i have a joker that changes appearance and it does it on set_sprite on reload

[chrome widget]

You seem to have some other context in your full mod that's causing the failure

I genuinely can't replicate the isolated issue

[rapid stag]

oh do i have to hook set_sprites()?

[red flower]

no, there's a set_sprite function on SMODS.Joker (or any center i think)

[rapid stag]

even after fixing the pseudorandom() i still get this error on discard

[iron mantle]

The only other contexts I have is one that occurs when glass cards are scored so they don't get shattered when a specific joker is present

I guess I can disable that lovely patch for a bit and see if that fixes it

[chrome widget]

I mean "context" in general

Not specifically the SMODS calculation contexts

Context as in, the context of your full mod

[rapid stag]

yes, i call that

i'm asking that if i have to hook set_sprite() for it to remain consistent between saving and loading

[chrome widget]

I can attempt to test your full mod if you'd like

[iron mantle]

Wait so just to clarify, you ran my lua file as is with your patch and it worked fine right?

[red flower]

can i see your set_sprites definition

[chrome widget]

I grabbed specifically the Thing joker from out of it, set it up within my mod, and then loaded it

[rapid stag]

...what? i don't have one written. do i have to write my own set_sprites()specifically for this joker

[chrome widget]

Changed no code from within it, and the patch file I was using earlier was also active

[red flower]

yes, that's what i was saying but you don't have to hook it

[rapid stag]

ahhhh i see.
how, within that, can i tell if the current game state is in a blind, and specifically before end of round?

[slender mango]

it immediately exploded the game

[red flower]

rather than doing that it's probably easier to store the state on the joker when the sprite changes

[stark geode]

W mod

[rapid stag]

hm. fair enough

[stark geode]

Can't play photochad

[rapid stag]

...what is a normal set_sprites() supposed to look like

[red flower]

idk i just did that by trial and error

[manic rune]

what am i doing wrong 💔

[chrome widget]

You need to put your mod prefix in front of the atlas

On the blind itself, it should access [prefix]_HSRBlinds since you didn't set the prefix settings on the Atlas load

[sonic cedar]

hi modding dev how do you affect a joker’s weight(for testing purposes so i can see if shop conditions work properly)

[manic rune]

ohhh icic

my jokers used "Jokers" as atlas so i didn't think u needed a prefix

[red flower]

i dont think you can as objects dont have individual weights

[manic rune]

time to spam that reroll button

[red flower]

you don't for jokers at least, smods ignores the prefix even if you put it

[sonic cedar]

i had 50 negative jokers

does debugplus have a spawn command maybe

[red flower]

if it does i havent found it

you can probably do it with commands

i have a lovely patch to do it but it's not very clean

[sonic cedar]

will it work (i have never patched)

[rapid stag]

well, whatever i did, it made the game explode when i selected a blind

[red flower]

i think it's easier to make a tag that spawns the joker you want in the shop and give yourself the tag

[sonic cedar]

wait you’re cooki—now i have to learn tags oh god

[tepid crow]

press ctrl+3 on the joker you want to spawn in

[sonic cedar]

ok but this guy is uhhhh not collection friendly

[weak gate]

there isn't a context for when a joker is destroyed, is there...? start_dissolve just seems to be used both in Ankh, Hex but also when a card is sold...

[tepid crow]

unless you meant in the shop, in which case you're better off using something like https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1335724769299009536

[sonic cedar]

guess we learning tags

[tepid crow]

what is that supposed to mean 😭

[red flower]

nope you need to make your own

[red flower]

your code looks too complicated : )

[sonic cedar]

he’s just a fodder guy meant to act as a transfer between separate jokers

you’re never supposed to see the actual guy and if you do something’s wrong

[rapid stag]

...what

[tepid crow]

lmao alright

[red flower]

i need a lot more context to understand what's going on and what any of those values are

[tepid crow]

something something minimum reproducible example

[sonic cedar]

is this good for localization or does it need a t_

[red flower]

it needs tag_

[sonic cedar]

KNEW it

[tepid crow]

that seems like the opposite of a minimum reproducible example

[graceful magnet]

oh uh, you helped me with making this patch, so I should report that this isn't working anymore, so the Joker that uses it is out of commission at the moment

[rapid stag]

hhhh it's 4 am i'm just gonna go to sleep and ram my head against this some more tomorrow

[sleek siren]

How can I render a UI box above everything?

[peak obsidian]

finally learned how to implement blinds
wondering if i should change the base mult

[paper zealot]

There's a couple tricks. If you just want it to display above cards and other in-game HUD elements, you can set self.attention_text of the root UIBox to some string (doesn't matter what)

If you want it to show up above everything, including all GUI elements in pause menu and main menu, you want to set config.instance_type = 'POPUP' on creation of your UIBox

[sleek siren]

ahhh!!! Ok! Thanks! ^^

[paper zealot]

If you want a specific layer, the instance_type options (in order) are:
"NODE"|"MOVEABLE"|"UIBOX"|"CARDAREA"|"CARD"|"UI_BOX"|"ALERT"|"POPUP"

[sleek siren]

Cool! ^^ Thanks so much!

[iron mantle]

Upon further debugging, I've found that the context remains nil in basically every instance of a card being created except for when they're spawned in from rerolling

[chrome widget]

That is correct

[paper zealot]

AppData.zip attached
pls halp

[chrome widget]

The instances that Jokers are actively created are being spawned in the shop UI, in a booster pack, or from something that creates jokers such as Rif-Raff or Judgement

[tepid crow]

hold on let me just zip up my entire C drive, that'll teach you to say "it doesn't work on my machine"

[chrome widget]

Is that not what you need?

[iron mantle]

Oh wait I see I must've misunderstood the wording of what unified context means then

[chrome widget]

What specifically do you need the context for?

Typically, when I use it to encapsulate that a joker is added to the player's joker slots, I use this full context check:
if (context.buying_card and context.card.ability.set == 'Joker') or (context.joker_created and context.card.area == G.jokers) and not context.blueprint then

[iron mantle]

the context to run when a joker is added such that it occurs after the joker is already added to the list

[chrome widget]

So this is "when you are buying a joker" or "a joker is created directly in the joker slot", which are the two general situations I need to event-drive obtaining a joker

[iron mantle]

cuz the default card_added context occurs before it's added meaning I can't meaningfully interract with the joker that was added

I guess the best way I could describe what I need is that buying_card works absolutely fine for my purposes because the context occurs after the joker is emplaced into the joker array, allowing me to interact with it. However this context does not include the judgement and booster pack cases

[chrome widget]

Mhm, so this should cover it

It only triggers when you buy a joker (which I believe includes booster pack selection), or when a joker is created directly in the joker slots (rather than somewhere else)

If it doesn't include booster packs though, that is my fault, I need to ensure the patch covers that

[iron mantle]

OK, lemme try it out, this makes much more sense cuz I thought it was a combined thing of card_added and buying_card from the wording 😅

[gentle rain]

very lost on why this triggers till it caps out

ignore the if context.selling_self

[radiant plank]

how would one go about removing the shine effect from booster packs?

[timid parrot]

Seems easier than any individual suit blind tbh

[peak obsidian]

thats why i asked if the multiplier should be changed

[timid parrot]

I think the effect should be changed

[peak obsidian]

yous got an idea

?

[timid parrot]

Not sure what your intent was

[sleek siren]

How can I allow for multiple lua src files?

[timid parrot]

But changing which suit is debuffed removes the challenge it posed

[tepid crow]

check https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Utility and search for load_file

[sleek siren]

Thanks! ^^

[peak obsidian]

how about having all but one or two random suits being debuffed

[normal crest]

replace the pattern with "mult, hand_chips, modded = G.GAME.blind:modify_hand(G.play.cards, poker_hands, text, mult, hand_chips, scoring_hand)"

the line was changed it seems

so that should do it

[timid parrot]

Worth some testing. Would it change?

[graceful magnet]

cool!

[peak obsidian]

probably after every hand?

[timid parrot]

Alr

Still has the fundamental problem tho…

I'd honestly go more on the side of aiming at the player's biggest vulnerability

debuff the suit with the most cards

[peak obsidian]

sounds dope

[timid parrot]

cuz I take it your goal was to make this a buffed version of the suit blinds?

[peak obsidian]

yeah

[timid parrot]

so yeah you pretty much do that by giving a distinct target

[iron mantle]

Just wanted to lyk that I've more or less done what I wanted to do, thank you so much for all your help 😄

[chrome widget]

That's great!!! Sorry for all the confusion orz

[sleek siren]

How can I tell how many slots I have?

(joker and consumable slots)

[manic rune]

what am i doing wrong

💔

one sec

i tried all of those and didnt work

kept saying blind is nil watdafaq

[daring fern]

Is it possible to retrigger without returning?

[cold glen]

can anyone help ?

[daring fern]

Try putting if hand_chips and mult around it.

[lucid owl]

how would one check when the shop is rerolled?

just to count down a value whenever that happens

[tepid crow]

check what flash card does

[manic rune]

isnt there a context for that

lemme check

[lucid owl]

oh wait i never considered flash card

[manic rune]

yeah, theres one

[lucid owl]

yeah there's context.reroll_shop

hell yeah i just didn;t read docs lmao

[manic rune]

all good lol

[manic rune]

anyone 💔

i actually cant figure out what im doing wrong

.

wait

is it the uppercase shit

nope, doesnt seem to be it

[sullen fern]

yeah.

[manic rune]

pata

[manic rune]

turned out i needed to add this, shouldve read the documentation.

💔

[sullen fern]

fun thing i’m gonna impliment in these is that they actually play the drums when you use them

[karmic arch]

baba is you
it is room

[reef belfry]

does this seem fair

[tall wharf]

i am dead

[zealous glen]

Did you make it work

[tall wharf]

no

what is G.ROOM again

[zealous glen]

I think it’s like the window or something

Maybe physical game space, which might go beyond the window

(Like for the discard pile, or other UI elements hidden offscreen)

[tall wharf]

idk why it does this 😭

[scarlet spire]

does SMODS.add_card not support custom stickers? if the table has vanilla sticker keys, they're added. if the table has invalid sticker keys, it crashes, but if the table has sticker keys from my mod (that I know are valid) it just doesn't add anything

[zealous glen]

Not sure what you’re asking

Debug can draw bounding boxes if you want

I had mouse cursor position calculation if you want

[tall wharf]

I AM SO CLOSE

[lucid owl]

why is this not flipping cards back over when played 😭

they're flipped back to their face when drawn, but when played they stay flipped over which obviously isn't intended

[rose dragon]

chess deck when

[tall wharf]

YES

YES

YES

HOLY FUCK

@zealous glen

[lucid owl]

balatrolitaire is insane

[tall wharf]

SUCK IT NONBELIEVERS

[rose dragon]

check if area == G.hand when choosing to flip it

[rose dragon]

cards should stack up like the deck too imo

[reef belfry]

ok nvm it definetly isnt

[tall wharf]

😭

[reef belfry]

do i have to make an enhancement that goes like "na dawg u cant enhance this card" or should i just not make it negative

[lucid owl]

when a card is played, everything including the hand is flipped over 😭

as in, stuff that was face-down is flipped over even if it wasn;t played

[rose dragon]

return false otherwise?

[lucid owl]

actually that works, i had another function conflicting

thanks lol

[zealous glen]

I’m glad I had decided to not even try to implement something similar for my first Joker idea ever

[zealous glen]

Aikoyori’s next project

[zealous glen]

I think Cryptid does something similar

[lucid owl]

i managed to get it fixed luckily

[last sentinel]

damn

yeah I was getting suspicious when I was just copying files from other modded decks to my mod and it still wasn’t working

My hunch of “there’s only one line of code that I wrote here maybe I’m not the source of the issue” didn’t stop me from spending hours trying everything though lmao

[tall wharf]

so close

so good

[manic rune]

aiko stop shenaniganing

[reef belfry]

whole lotta

i should probably tone down the purple for the background

pseudorandom isn't a common word

[zealous glen]

It’s common from my sample of Balatro modders and programmers

[iron iron]

how do i make a joker give free rerolls

[daring fern]

G.GAME.current_round.free_rerolls = G.GAME.current_round.free_rerolls + numberoffreererolls

[reef belfry]

does this seem a little excessive for an item that has a 1 in 3 chance of creating a random tag of 3 instances

[next timber]

how do you use the colour of a custom suit in text? i was told to use {C:suit} but {C:suns} for a suit with the key suns isnt working
edit: nvm figured it out, {V:1} and passing it into loc_vars vars.colours

[craggy mesa]

is there like a documentation for modding :/

[paper zealot]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/API-Documentation

[craggy mesa]

thank you

i searched it for like an hour and couldnt find

[paper zealot]

If you've added a custom suit with Steamodded, you should be able to do {C:modprefix_suns}

Might be less hassle than providing it in loc_vars everywhere it's used

[gentle rain]

bump.... bleurgh

staring at the code again and by no means should it trigger more than once

unless the juice_card_until is fucking it up?

[manic rune]

how do i change the sprite of a blind through code

[red flower]

try context.end_of_round and context.main_eval

[manic rune]

i figured out i need to change this, but it currently doesnt re-render, i think

[tall wharf]

is there not a set sprite function

[manic rune]

set_sprite_pos, right?

i tried, didnt seem to work

[tall wharf]

don't have source code right now so can't help

[manic rune]

-# it crashed

oh

nevermind

i needed to use G.GAME.blind.children.animatedSprite:set_sprite_pos

[lavish lake]

The fact you have to score multiple times is just evil

And also

How tf are you supposed to do that???

[red flower]

kino

[gentle rain]

aah makes sense! ill try when i get home tyty

i think the issue might be that each card held in hand is incrementing it lol, had a similar issue with another end-of-round incrementing

[manic rune]

u receive all of ur hands back every phase :3

[red flower]

yeah there's end_of_round + individual

[west mason]

no shader for the edition yet because i dont want to go crazy for now

[zealous glen]

I wonder if it works with my mod

[manic rune]

it should

[zealous glen]

I remember Myst thinking it would be incompatible

[manic rune]

hmmm

dunno

try my mod to test it out :3

[rapid stag]

ok, i am ready to kick apricots.
what is happening

here is the joker sprite misbehaving if i do card:set_sprites() to call it.

[manic rune]

dang, u still didn't get it working?

😭

[rapid stag]

and here's it not setting on load
as well as misbehaving with card.set_sprites()

[runic pecan]

I mean...

[runic pecan]

This one I can use G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS.hololive_Relic, but I need separate pools for 4 branches (JP, ID, EN, and DEV_IS) and 17 generations.

[primal robin]

Is there a way to crash a game via debugplus?

[rapid stag]

good joker effect "gains x.025 mult every time the game crashes"

[maiden river]

Just use the terminal and eval assert(false)

[primal robin]

It doesnt crash a game, this error catched by debugplus

[maiden river]

That makes sense, I suppose

Why do you need to crash the game anyway?

[runic pecan]

Right now I have something like this, but I don't know how to call those pool tables.

[primal robin]

To see fancy displayed mods list

[maiden river]

Oh

Can't you just take a screenshot of your mods folder? I'm assuming you need something more specific if not

[daring fern]

G.GAME = nil

[zealous glen]

Can you eval nil?

[primal robin]

Nice

[maiden river]

eval nil would just return nil

[zealous glen]

I meant like

nil()

[maiden river]

DebugPlus would probably catch that, like the assertion

[frosty dock]

debugplus catches any errors that happen in the eval

you need to make it crash elsewhere

[spring lantern]

these thin white lines just started appearing on the left side of some jokers, did something misalign in the atlas?

[frosty dock]

like setting something to nil that the game expects to be there

[frosty dock]

yeah probably something misaligned

[manic rune]

...i mean if no one knows how to, you can try asking the boys
-# aka eremel and aure

[spring lantern]

i have no clue how this got misaligned tho

[frosty dock]

if you have an ObjectType for a pool, you can just pass that as the set into create card functions

[zealous glen]

I don’t think it’s misaligned

It’s just how love2D works

Maybe

[spring lantern]

either way i need them gone

[zealous glen]

Try adding color data on the invisible pixels of your art

Firch had a Python script for it

[spring lantern]

what the fuck

[sacred quarry]

random thought here, but I am a music producer and I wanted to record a video making balatro music for a mod pack, but I don't really have lua experience, would anyone need custom music for their mod?

[zealous glen]

Cursed Balatro

[zealous glen]

Do you have a sample

[sacred quarry]

I don't of any balatro specific music, but I have a page with my other genres on it if youd like

[zealous glen]

Probably helps

[hushed field]

I suspect most mod devs would welcome a custom soundtrack, haha

[zealous glen]

I’m not currently planning to add music to my mod but I could consider it

And I could ask around

[hushed field]

If there's a mod you're enjoying playing with, I'd honestly just shoot the dev a message. Chances are they'd happily accept some music

[zealous glen]

I mean the vanilla soundtrack is pretty good

[sacred quarry]

thats what i figured, its not like a "must have" but it could be a great addition

[hushed field]

Yeah, buuut it's really cool to have people offering to work together on stuff based on your mod, haha.

[sacred quarry]

I'm thinking of making a bunch of different options, and recording the process for all of them and if someone chooses one, just using that for the vid

[native zinc]

bad joker idea:

Bohrium
x7 Chips and x7 Mult. Halves every 2.8 minutes.

[hushed field]

I should try and record another video today 🤔

[sacred quarry]

I had a friend work on a sonic mod and they made arcade sounding hiphop music for it, which was super unique and fun

[reef belfry]

This is gonna be one hell of a joker to make

[manic rune]

omg reverse 1999

[zealous glen]

It’s true I’m just a bit indifferent I guess 🤔 I’d maybe like Boss music for some Bosses

Now, Biome music…

[hushed field]

Depending on the style of music you make, I think there's a lot of mods you can do great with. If you make anything Hans Zimmer-y I'll snatch you up for my movie mod 😋 but I think there's a bunch of game inspired mods, and some general mods. Ortalab might be cool, if they'd like it, because that mods concept is 'balatro from an alternative universe' which is an angle to make music with for sure

[rapid stag]

rapidly running out of rocks to bang together on this

@zealous glen @daring fern @paper zealot @red flower

@tall wharf@tall wharf@tall wharf@tall wharf@tall wharf@tall wharf@tall wharf

[manic rune]

its card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({x = 0, y = 0})

[primal robin]

[tall wharf]

😭

[manic rune]

not set_sprites

[zealous glen]

How about having the children always exist but only rendering it some of the time

[primal robin]

[sacred quarry]

This is huge, thanks a ton! Yeah, I have a lot of traction and searches for my channel name right now due to a song that kind of blew up and I figured itd be the perfect time to launch a channel doing content that I really want to work on and this idea seems like a blast

collaborating is always fun, but I usually only do that with other music producers. Collaborating with devs seems really cool

two arts collide

[clever steppe]

had to catch up with the convo and it sounds cool! i dont think the mod particularly needs it but i think the best way to go about it is if they wanted to try making balatro esque music and THEN when its done, offer it for adoption

[hushed field]

Feel free to tag me when you end up uploading a vid!

[manic rune]

[zealous glen]

You hear it @sacred quarry

[modern kindle]

Hi ice and bepis

[manic rune]

hi dilly

[manic rune]

surprisingly useful since i didnt need to ask around as much :p

[clever steppe]

that way you can practice making the music but not feel tied to a certain sound or expectations from a mod

but then if it works out n people like it, then you can start collaborating

Neat cave

I've tried messing around in production software to see if I can get some music going but God, music production is a whole separate skill from just knowing music, haha. I'd have a variation of the Balatro theme for each movie genre, if I could produce, haha

And hey hey Dilly

[sacred quarry]

yeah i mentioned that above, I think that I will prob record a bunch of different tracks and have the breakdowns for them tucked away so that if someone does select one I can make a video on that specific track

[modern kindle]

I am thinking that development will resume today

[manic rune]

i got the blind sprites drawn myself :3

[sacred quarry]

I think if there is a creator who wants a specific sound than its completely welcome, but for the sake of time and pumping out a quick video that is the best route

...am i doing it wrong
@red flower

[red flower]

sorry, i should have been more specific
the arguments when you call card.set_sprites are wrong, that's what the crash is saying

[zealous glen]

Do you know about any mods that transform e.g. Consumeables into other Consumeables?

[red flower]

shouldnt set_ability do that too or do you need something more specific

[rapid stag]

so card.set_sprites(self, card, card.config.center) should be card.set_sprites(self, card, card)?

[zealous glen]

Idk how it would work I haven’t had the time to try anything yet

[stark geode]

I'm losing my mind

How does the tooltips thing work

[red flower]

idk if the last 2 arguments are wrong but the first one should be card instead of self or use card:set_sprites(...)

[zealous glen]

Do you think calling set_ability using the correct center’s method would work?

Don’t I need to set sprites and more too?

[zealous glen]

What’s your issue

[rapid stag]

...i feel like card:set_sprites(card, card, card) is also not right

[stark geode]

im trying to add tooltips to my jerker

[red flower]

probably not

[zealous glen]

This doesn’t make sense because you can’t hover over a Joker’s tooltip

[sacred quarry]

trying to read this code with only a little bit of JS knowledge is killing me lol'

[zealous glen]

It’s physically impossible

Unless you already patched that

[stark geode]

smods docs moment

[red flower]

this works but idk if it has other side effects

[zealous glen]

You misunderstood

If you move your mouse to the tooltip

The tooltip disappears

[rapid stag]

yeah this just causes stack overflow

[modern kindle]

Mf said it was impossible then said it could've been patched

It ain't freaking impossible then smh

[zealous glen]

Because it only exists while you hover over the Joker

[tall wharf]

sorry

[stark geode]

whne how do i make it appear with the joker

[zealous glen]

what

[reef belfry]

Ehhhhhhhhh

[zealous glen]

You can just test this in-game. You can’t hover over a Joker’s tooltip

[reef belfry]

Well atleast i dont have to cram letters now

[stark geode]

how do i do this then

[zealous glen]

Thanks 🤔 it’s poetic you’re helping me because this is for ||Terraforming||

[zealous glen]

It won't stop me from hoarding but-

[zealous glen]

Perkeo has two hands

[tranquil panther]

TRUE

[zealous glen]

The question isn’t if but which

[rapid stag]

ok so calling set_sprites(card, card, card) with either . or : just causes stack overflow. so that's not it either

BALPOTOFGREEDTRO

[stark geode]

i have some code you can use

[red flower]

yeah i read, i would look into what center and front are in set_sprites

[modern kindle]

Shit if you're offering feel free to pass it over and I'll gander at it

[stark geode]

function Card:resize(mod, force_save)
    self:hard_set_T(self.T.x, self.T.y, self.T.w * mod, self.T.h * mod)
    remove_all(self.children)
    self.children = {}
    self.children.shadow = Moveable(0, 0, 0, 0)
    self:set_sprites(self.config.center, self.base.id and self.config.card)
end

local mainmenuref2 = Game.main_menu
Game.main_menu = function(change_context)

    local ret = mainmenuref2(change_context)

        --Replace j_unik_unik with 'j_perkeo' or any other card
    local newcard = SMODS.create_card({key='j_perkeo', edition='e_negative',area = G.title_top})
    G.title_top.T.w = G.title_top.T.w * 1.7675
    G.title_top.T.x = G.title_top.T.x - 0.8
    G.title_top:emplace(newcard)
    newcard:start_materialize()
    newcard:resize(1.1 * 1.2)
    newcard.no_ui = true
    return ret
end

this is what i use

[modern kindle]

Much obliged

[tranquil panther]

You can replace the win/loss Jimbo right.......

[stark geode]

[rapid stag]

[stark geode]

[tall wharf]

[zealous glen]

Basically you copy the CardCharacter methods to Card

[tranquil panther]

(Honestly Heart & Soul is a banger ass name for a Balatro dating sim with the legendaries if someone does it feel free to yoink it. And lemme know)

[zealous glen]

Like me copying Bunco

[tranquil panther]

Anyway modding

[tall wharf]

I'm copying

[stark geode]

the back alley of the balatro discord

[modern kindle]

Ah so I can copy you who copied bunco

[tall wharf]

I'm copying Windows XP Solitaire

[hushed field]

yeah on that note Victin, is there anything I should keep in mind when I patch additional checks into can_calculate?

[zealous glen]

Yes (I added more functionality)

[zealous glen]

No idea

[hushed field]

hahaha

[zealous glen]

Maybe ask whoever made it

[hushed field]

I'll just see if things crash then

I thought you made it

[stark geode]

i just copy form the base game

[modern kindle]

Vic made everything

[tall wharf]

I'm really going to copy from Windows XP

[stark geode]

nice dna code you got there

be a shame if i

modified it

[tranquil panther]

Reminds me I gotta finish up all the art for my mod so I can gently persuade folks to code it

[stark geode]

i might help wit what little time i have lol

[tranquil panther]

Basically I'm adding a bunch of my OCs as Balatro jokers. That's it.

I can drop the spreadsheet one sec

[hushed field]

I'll code your mod if you do the art for the 10 booster packs and 10 legendaries I still need to make 😛

[modern kindle]

Can you code my mod for a firm handshake

[tranquil panther]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EUmnmHjfOJ_drkiEHtfIM0nPWC3Ejn1M6Pndsu5rexI/edit?usp=drivesdk

[tall wharf]

can you help me with UI

[modern kindle]

I'm gonna code bepis

[tranquil panther]

(Sentimental is the name of the story the OCs come from, the mod's gonna be called Dotty's Dollhouse bc I may do a second wave w/ OCs outside of that story)

[zealous glen]

@modern kindle

[modern kindle]

This man's is raw as hell

[hushed field]

[modern kindle]

You're powerful enough

[tall wharf]

[tall wharf]

fym

[modern kindle]

You know good and well

[tall wharf]

i don't

[manic rune]

-# i wish

[tall wharf]

i fucked up my UI

[manic rune]

aiko i aint doing shit 😭

[rapid stag]

i can't even do that. it doesn't print anything, it just crashes

[modern kindle]

This is my ui pal

[red flower]

i recommend looking at the code in smods override

[rapid stag]

like what smods does to Card:setsprites()?

[red flower]

yes

[manic rune]

my UI is 100% "inspired" by JoyousSpring

wink wink

[modern kindle]

Yea i have this second mod i made called balatro star rail which has pretty good ui

I think i did a pretty great job there

[red flower]

i made a mod called balatro star rail too

[manic rune]

wtf i lost my mod 💔

[modern kindle]

Our mod now

[manic rune]

😭

[modern kindle]

Lmfao

[rapid stag]

well idk what smods changes about it specifically, but here's the function from the lua dump

[tall wharf]

where can i claim balatro star rail

[hushed field]

N, for your flipped jokers, are you just setting the joker to have a custom back, sprite-wise?

[red flower]

ive seen it, i just dont have the time rn to understand what it does : )

[hushed field]

I'm trying to see how I wanna implement mystery cards, which is an enhancement that I want to be drawn over the card back, but I'm not sure how I'd best approach that, haha

[manic rune]

free balatro star rail
.com

[red flower]

yes

[rapid stag]

fair enough

[hushed field]

I should see how custom back art works, and then just see if I can use some dummy stickers to paste on some sprites

[modern kindle]

The egg always hunts me

[hushed field]

why did i save all the annoying to code mechanics till last? 😭

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/afd2ccbcfc78f34f7d15a559bbf60f94de97afb9/src/card_ui.lua#L474

[modern kindle]

My gf made her image the egg so it's all I see

[manic rune]

joyousspring to the rescue

[manic rune]

naww 😭

[stark geode]

what the hell

[manic rune]

perkeo has an info queue

so it adds another one

[paper zealot]

Hey you content creators 🫵 Has anyone ever used the {B:} style modifier? If so, where?

[manic rune]

me?

whats B: for

[red flower]

nice

[stark geode]

then why is it puling up the description for my joker

[manic rune]

like

{BepisFever:}?

[paper zealot]

Custom/variable background, like {V:} + {X:}

[red flower]

i should make the background look like a ygo card

[modern kindle]

God that reminds me i still need to figure out a way to make infoqueues appear below the text box instead of on the sides

[manic rune]

ahhhh icic

[rapid stag]

@daring fern @manic rune @paper zealot do any of you have any ideas as to what is causing my crashes

[manic rune]

terribly sorry, but i dont know ANYTHING about the code creating sprite 😭

like, i literally just asked in this chat about how to use set_sprite_pos on a blind earlier lmfao

[rapid stag]

i see

[stark geode]

i just dont know why its calling perkolator and not perkeo

[manic rune]

oh wait

ohhh

didnt notice the joker's name, thats odd

[stark geode]

this game is so wierd

[tall wharf]

what's the name of the game where you mine and craft?

[modern kindle]

Fort

[thin anchor]

craftmine

[stark geode]

craftmine is a good rougelite

[reef belfry]

Im in hell and joker legendary texts are my tormentor

[gentle rain]

yeah trying to get a quickly-hand-written look in lowdef pixel art like this is really tough, esp without antialiasing

the bg is really awesome though, reminds me of plasma deck

[tall wharf]

https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/the-craftmine-update

this is the most fun April fools snapshot so far

[manic rune]

thats so sick

💔
