is_doctor = true

#

i think

#

or mb

brisk rose
#

config = {extra = {is_doctor = true}}

shut crater
#

config = { extra = { mult = 10, is_doctor = true } }
(Or yeah is there a reason it has to go in config?)

brazen tusk
#

in the config extra

brisk rose
#

or something

brazen tusk
#

yeah

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

either works i tihnk

brisk rose
brazen tusk
#

did in fact not work

sleek cliff
#

so soemthing like this?

image.png
shut crater
#

I only ask because stickers like eternal and perishable are just variables on card.ability

sleek cliff
#

gotta move the is_doctor tho

shut crater
#

if context.other_card.ability.extra.is_doctor then

sleek cliff
#

oh yeh

shut crater
#

You are no longer checking the key

brazen tusk
#

is doctor a joker or

shut crater
#

Also in general the yellow underline is worth paying attention to

shut crater
#

Like from doctor who

brazen tusk
#

ohh

#

ok you probably dont want it as other_card context then right?

sleek cliff
#

it's for a doctor who related mod

shut crater
#

Oh right

#

So context.other_joker

brazen tusk
#

yeah

shut crater
#

Right?

brazen tusk
#

p sure

#

using this joker to create a negative hash brown joker at the end of round, works entirely without the negative part if i remove ".edition.negative" so all i need is the correct way to actually make it negative

brisk rose
#

they already have places on the joker object

my friend said this would be more balanced if it also added a random edition

#

i disagree

#

I'll test and see how it goes

#

ah oki

#

Ayyyy now it works

brazen tusk
#

ok im at the point where i think the context isnt right

sleek cliff
faint yacht
#

Actually, wait.

brazen tusk
#

oh

#

its bc im checking id not key

faint yacht
#

The get_id returns a number...

brazen tusk
#

yeahhh

#

hm

#

would i just change it to context.other_card.key?

faint yacht
#

You'd probably want to store the .key to the .currentrank/.newrank variables whilst using .id in the check...

faint yacht
brazen tusk
#

i have no idea how id do either

faint yacht
#

Replace context.other_card:get_id() == card.ability.extra.currentrank with SMODS.Ranks[context.other_card.base.value].key == card.ability.extra.currentrank?

brazen tusk
#

would i be able to just do SMODS.Rank ==

manic rune
#

is add_to_deck triggered when a joker is duplicated through ctrl + D?

faint yacht
#

SMODS.Ranks is a table.

#

SMODS.change_base uses it too.

brazen tusk
#

giving*

faint yacht
#

...what's that exact line in the Mods/lovely/dump/card.lua?

brazen tusk
#

oh thats related to flipping now, means the context is working

#

gonna comment those out for now

faint yacht
#

:flip(), by the way.

brazen tusk
#

ahh that'll do it ty

#

the rank changing works!!

First time modder here, following the artmuncher video tutorial now

is there a method for coding cards that each have their own individual sprite file? The tutorial doesn’t seem to be doing it that way unless I’m mistaken

#

Been looking at the layout and files of the Cardsauce mod and their main.lua is completely different

daring fern
faint yacht
#

...do you mean splitting by type of card or per-card splitting?

#

Like joker.lua, spectral.lua...?

brazen tusk
#

i mean you just put the sprite name in the atlas right?

drowsy kelp
brisk rose
#

and the pos would always be 0,0

faint yacht
drowsy kelp
#

oh man the beginner’s anxiety is already kicking in aaa 😅

brisk rose
#

which you really don't have to do

#

i mean you can do it any way

brazen tusk
#

just depends why you want that really

brisk rose
#

yeah it helps a lot for adding more things i'm sure

#

like especially if you also have the jokers on a per-file basis

#

you can in theou just drop in the new joker lua and image png and not have to touch anything

drowsy kelp
#

So you would more recommend having all of the joker assets on one sheet?

#

It’s hard to figure out exactly since the video tutorial only uses one as a demo

brazen tusk
#

i personally find it easier to do that

brisk rose
faint yacht
#

It's like storing tools individually in boxes vs. storing a bunch of them in one large toolbox.

drowsy kelp
#

makes sense, especially if I’m just starting out with the basics

brazen tusk
#

this is what mine looks like rn, when i make a new joker i just make the file longer and add the jokers atlas key to the atlas

image.png
#

quite intuitive once you have it set up

drowsy kelp
brisk rose
#

so you're gonna have to use more rows at some point

brazen tusk
brisk rose
#

at least i've been told such

#

but it's like.... a lot more than what you have

brazen tusk
#

my current idea is just go along the x axis and use the 2nd row for soul sprites

brisk rose
#

just look at how wide the all-in jest atlas is and stop there, lol

brazen tusk
#

i'll keep going till it stops working smh

#

they get auto assigned x coord values based on atlas key

image.png
brisk rose
#

so no need to worry for some time

brazen tusk
#

i dont plan on have an absurd amount so

#

should be alr

#

at most ill have to add a second index for a new row

brisk rose
#

the idea of writing a list of my jokers by hand and mainting it sounds worse than the actual coding ngl

brazen tusk
#

i just add the key to the end of that list when i add a new one, not much effort

#

and having the jokers file name decoupled from its keys means i can change the order they appear in the collection super easy

brisk rose
#

I'm not the type of raccoon to pace myself

brazen tusk
#

which is smth i care about

brisk rose
#

and fair

brazen tusk
#

bc i just load my whole jokers folder so whichever appears first alphanumerically shows up first in the collection, it isnt pretty but this is what i have rn lol

#

hi, quick question, i want a message to appear on context.other_card which does (using card_eval_text) although it appears under the card instead of above; any idea on why?

daring heron
#

How would i replace the current high contrast colors with different colors? Made this and i kinda wanna make it into a mod haha

IMG_2128.png
#

If its not possible i’ll just make it a texture pack

brisk rose
#

the thing i said to name like the keys was using individual pngs

#

because that way you can make the atlas objects with a loop

brazen tusk
#

oh right mb

frigid blaze
#

Can you tell me how to delete some cards in SMODS.Deck?

brisk rose
#

from this and the original i mean

#

it isn possible to do, lemme look at smth

#

oh yeah i think bunco adds a third coloring option

#

'emhamced contrast'

#

might wanna do smth like that

daring heron
#

wait it does?

brisk rose
daring heron
#

oh i didnt know

daring fern
#

‎

brisk rose
daring heron
#

fair

#

i mean im not planning on making it have a gradient

#

and this is more like "okay colors still look nice and are still easily destinguishable"

#

idunno i just dont like the colors on high contrast

brisk rose

#

I want to create my own deck that would not have 2,3,4,5,6 in it, please tell me how to do it correctly.

daring heron
brisk rose
#

that's a joke, i have no idea but i'[d halp if i did

so now that this is actual real lua, can anyone help me figure out why it doesn't appear to do anything?
#

it's meant to be evaled in the debugplus console and combine the given 2 entries in the profile table so that the stats for the joker are reflected accurately

yknow what i dont need delays on my flips, this'll do for now

#

after i get this fixed highkey im just goin 2 bed its like 5AM but im up off a combination fo a new medication and hype for actually getting a Balatro mod working

if context.sdr1_cardtryingtobedestroyed then
            if not context.other_card.seal then
                local seals = {}

yes but also delete the else

#

now you need to change if card.ability.extra.chips - card.ability.extra.chip_mod <= 0 then to your counter logic

#

also are you adding "k_Extinct!_ex"?

#

because the key is k_extinct_ex

daring heron
#

thats just the message for when it breaks after 5 rounds

red flower
#

that wasnt my question :3

daring heron

oh

#

thx

#

btw it doesnt do anything rn

did you add xchips to the config?

hm?

#

like the atlas?

red flower
#

have you made a joker before

daring heron

barely 😔

you know how the things in card.ability.extra have to be initialized in config.extra

that

where do i add it then?

How can i force a joker to always be a certain edition?

stiff locust
karmic arch
#

Cryptid has)

stiff locust
#

set_ability is run when the joker is first spawned

worthy stirrup
#

okay

#

ill check it out

stiff locust
#

that includes when it appears in packs and the shop

#

i think that'll also set its edition like that in the collection

#

the edition can technically still be removed but i doubt you're trying to make an edition generator so set_ability is fine

karmic arch
#

hmm, I wonder if it is possible to make it so editions with set_ability, and when add_to_deck is taken away

red flower
#

it should be

worthy stirrup
#

when should Set ablity be ran?

stiff locust
#

it's like the calculate function

#

you put it inside the joker code

worthy stirrup
#

for me its saying unknown global

stiff locust
# 
set_ability = function(self, card, initial, delay_sprites)
---set edition here

worthy stirrup

nvm, i made a typo

#

and i was trying to do a python

happens

worthy stirrup
#

like this?

  set_ability = function(self, card, initial, delay_sprites)
    Card:set_edition(hiss, true, true)
  end,
#

because the effect isnt showing up in the collection

#

or do i include its prefix?

if it's a modded edition then it should be "e_modprefix_negative"

it's a set_edition thing idk

worthy stirrup
#

fair

stiff locust
#

:set_edition({ negative = true }, nil) this is how I do it apparently? try that method

daring heron
#

what would the counter logic be?

#

like, that it destroys itself after 5 rounds?

red flower
#

yes

#

it counts the rounds and then when if counter >= 5 (pseudocode, do not use) you destroy it

daring heron
#

so what should i change?

red flower
#

the problem here is that if i tell you then i just made your whole joker for you lol

daring heron
#

fair enough

red flower
#

look at how popcorn decreases mult and change that to increase a counter

manic rune

red flower
#

both should work

#

what hand is that??

#

😭

#

honestly, not too hard except for the negative playing card

brisk rose
red flower
#

it's a gold card with gold seal, holo stone, negative, red seal with an unscored bonus

manic rune
#

😭

#

is the unscored part necessary??

red flower
#

yes

manic rune
#

thats so fucked up

#

i love it

daring heron
#

could anyone help me on how i can make my joker destroy itself after 5 rounds?

manic rune
#

use context.end_of_round to increase a value

#

then when its at a certain value, use :start_dissolve()

maiden phoenix
manic rune
#

oh, i actually just remembered that you can have :start_dissolve() effect colored

floral flicker
#

Someone know how i can make a joker stay on the rightmost position ?

manic rune
#

🤔

daring heron
manic rune
maiden phoenix
manic rune
#

oh yeah, use context.main_eval too, or it might trigger more than 1 time

daring heron
manic rune
#

yeah yeah that

worthy stirrup
manic rune
#

:3

daring heron
#

so do i put it instead of context.end_of_round?

manic rune
#

not instead, you put your code inside that block

worthy stirrup
#

it works when i turn disable_base_shader = true, to false

#

but then that causes the shader to not do anything

daring heron
#

so like this?

image.png
manic rune
# 
if context.end_of_round and context.main_eval and not context.blueprint and not context.retrigger_joker then
  card.ability.extra.elapsed_round = card.ability.extra.elapsed_round + 1
  if card.ability.extra.elapsed_round >= 5 then
    --the event + card:start_dissolve()
  end
end

you probably want to do something like that

manic rune
daring heron
#

is that a problem?

daring fern
manic rune
#

🤔 idk, depends on whether you want the retrigger to affect the speed of the joker being destroyed i guess?

daring heron
#

i dont

manic rune
#

yeah, add that then

manic rune
#

and theres no context.end_of_round there, too

manic rune
red flower
daring heron
#

yes

#

dont forget to add elapsed_round = 0 to config extra too

#

-# and remember to spawn that joker again, if you already have it in a run

#

do i need multiple configs or just add it to the one i have

add it to the one you already have

it does

that works?

daring heron

nvm it doesnt lol

#

mb

#

yeah, it only works when you are returning that

#

i suggest going with somethingcom's approach instead

daring heron
#

how do i make the description be "x2 chips for (however many rounds left) rounds"?

#

and like, make it update

#

as in, however many rounds until it destroys itself

how do i do that?

@daring heron

This card has 6 uses, store under its card.ability.remaining

loc_txt = {
        ['name'] = 'Fickle Fox',
        ['text'] = {
            [1] = '{C:attention}Applies gold seal randomly to cards played',
            [2] = 'Has a {C:green}#1# in #2#{} chance to bless',
            [3] = 'Has a {C:green}#1# in #3#{} chance to vanish with the wind',
            [4] = 'Flees after 6 seals applied, {C:red}#4# seals remaining ',
        }
    },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = { key = "artistcredit", set = "Other", vars = { "Linzra" } }
        info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = G.P_CENTERS.m_gold
        return { vars = { G.GAME.probabilities.normal, card.ability.oddsToBless, card.ability.oddsToFlee, card.ability.remaining } }
    end,

See line 4 in it's loc_txt. It is taking in a variable.

loc_vars is where you send vars into loc_txt

quartz ravine
manic rune
#

ahhh

daring heron
#

can i replace that with this?

#

or do i still need this

manic rune
manic rune
#

just add card.ability.extra.elapsed_round in there

quartz ravine
#

Ah, it was card_eval_status_text I was thinking of

#

they should work the same, so you can use either

Hey y'all, is it possible to add an extra blind to an Ante using something like the opposite of G.GAME.round_resets.blind_states.Small = 'Hide', or would I have to build the UI and stuff from scratch?

manic rune

i remember a mod adding an extra blind to the ante

#

uhh

#

one sec

daring heron
#

it doesnt display the number of rounds left

image.png
#

changed it to destroy if <= 0, starts at 5 and -1 each round so itd look good in the game

I think it's because there's a missing } after C:attention

also, you can just return xmult = card.ability.extra.x_mult, you don't need all of the Xmult_mod and message stuff

red flower
# wheat pulsar

oh ok thats different, then yeah use context.before and loop through context.full_hand

#

or scoring_hand

daring heron
#

what's the sound called that gros michel uses when it goes extinct?

Is there a context for probabilities similarly to the likes of Business Card or Reserved Parking?

i think

runic pecan

Is there a way to change the base probability to make an unusual probability stat like "4 in 1003 chance"?

shut crater
runic pecan
shut crater
#

Also you're calling has_enhancement twice

hallow relic
wheat pulsar
runic pecan
# wheat pulsar like this?

SMODS.has_enhancement(v, 'm_stone')
Although that would make your joker "gain X0.25 mult for each Stone Card you played"

wheat pulsar
shut crater
wheat pulsar
shut crater
#

Because the way to do those is different and your current code is halfway between them

#

Mmk so you probably do want to be using context.individual and context.other_card instead of the loop

#

Unless you really need this effect to be in context.before

runic pecan
shut crater
#

Mmmm true

#

Well

wheat pulsar
#

what exactly do context.before, im new in this modding

shut crater
#

Not necessarily because doesn't context.individual get run for unscored cards as well?

#

Whatever, the current effect is fine

runic pecan
shut crater
#

context.before is before scoring. There are a couple contexts for different moments during scoring. context.after is for after scoring, etc

red flower
shut crater
#

And then there are contexts for when the round starts or ends, when a card is destroyed, etc

shut crater
runic pecan
shut crater
#

Cause I haven't looked into that

red flower
shut crater
#

I thought that context only existed if you enabled it or something

red flower
#

i think it did at the very beginning but it's not performance heavy so it didn't make sense

wheat pulsar
#

in the moment the joker do a weird stuff, first work with all cards no only with stone cards and later it multiplies like exponentially

#

when i play first stone card give the multiplier, then any card y play give the mult

runic pecan
#

Do we have a "Show us your code" emote or something on this channel?

runic pecan
wheat pulsar
runic pecan
# wheat pulsar

So, G.playing_cards is your full deck, but according to our previous conversation, I assume what you need should be context.full_hand.

runic pecan
# wheat pulsar

Also I'd recommend you using for _,v in ipairs(context.full_hand) do in this case.

#

pairs iterates through table, and ipairs iterates through list.

Hi folks, has anyone successfully epplied a shader or edition to the G.deck object?

        old_key = "v_"..string.sub(i, 17)
        if temp_profile.voucher_usage[old_key] then
            v.count = v.count + temp_profile.voucher_usage[old_key].count

There's a 5% chance I either hallucinated or misunderstood what was being shown

quartz ravine

Trying to call draw_shader on the G.deck.cards[1].back or config doesn't seem to work.

Amusingly this actually sets polychrome on the top card in your deck

G.deck.cards[1]:set_edition('e_holo')

shut crater
modern kindle
#

im like hey whats up hello chat happywave

quartz ravine
#

Hi Dilster

shut crater
modern kindle
#

hey fox, i hope all is well

quartz ravine
#

I want to apply a shader to the back of the card I have a cool shader I love and want this special deck to have it applied

shut crater
#

But my experience in this arena is actually less than negative infinity

quartz ravine
wheat pulsar
shut crater
shut crater
#

G.playing_cards is every playing card the player owns

runic pecan
shut crater
#

So by using that, it's checking the player's whole deck for a stone card

#

Which is not right

wheat pulsar
quartz ravine
#

I dumped out the full table of my G.cards[1] object, to see where the sprite is set. If there is a sprite, shaders are apply-able (like skew, when you move your mouse over it).

Meaning I can apply a shader to it! Now what will happen when 52 cards are running a shader on their front and back?

wheat pulsar
shut crater
#

So hopefully only the backs will be getting rendered

brisk rose
shut crater
#

I only vaguely understand what you're doing

brisk rose
#

But I think you can load my profile back into a jkr file

#

Before I made these changes

#

Or I could just send the jkr

#

Yeah that's allowdd

shut crater
#

Oh I just meant like how there's profiles 1 2 and 3

#

I wasn't sure if your stats carried over between them

#

Nvm, I'm probably misunderstanding what you're doing

Balatro's ui system is written entirely by thunk

shut crater

so it can't mess it up

rough furnace

#

i keep it backed up anyway

wheat pulsar
#

so contex.full_hand is when the hand that i play?

rough furnace
brisk rose
#

so i didn't have to reload the game to reload my profile

#

(or force reload in colsole)

#

I did restard the game and do them again anyway, with the commands that save it, just because

last question, when the joker is x1 it show in the game x1, is any form to not show this message? only when >1

is it remove_card(self)?

The shader it self isn't crashing, but when the card tries to apply Hissing to it self it causes a crash.

worthy stirrup

it doesnt flip

#

it just goes extinct

shut crater

But doesn't it shrink out of existence?

daring heron
#

i mean it kinda gets squished idunno

worthy stirrup
#

I would look at X-ray challenges code

daring heron
rough furnace
#

That's the card.T part you didn't copy from above iirc

worthy stirrup
#

I dont think its the shader causing it, the game can render the shader without a crash

you missed the rest of the event

worthy stirrup
#

but when its applied with the set_ablity, it crashes

daring heron
worthy stirrup
rough furnace
worthy stirrup
#

oh, mb

#

if you ever get the chance to look, just tell me :3

daring heron
#

how do i make the message not play sound?

#

(i forgor)

shut crater
#

remove the line that says play_sound?

daring heron
#

no that's not the message sound

shut crater
#

mmm maybe in the args of calculate_effect you can do sound = nil?

#

idk if the return table is the same for that as it is for calculate

red flower
#

it is

daring heron
#

this doesnt work sadly

image.png
shut crater
#

it would need to be the same table

#

{message = "Eaten!", sound = nil}

daring heron
#

still doesnt work

shut crater
#

one last idea, try sound = ''

#

this might cause a crash

worthy stirrup
#

this mod making me go mad, idk why my game crashes when im trying to apply the effect to a card

shut crater
#

if it does then I think the only way to have no sound be played is to create a sound effect that's just silence

red flower
#

or volume = 0

shut crater
#

this is why they pay you the big bucks

#

people that aren't me are so smart

daring heron
#

still doesnt work sadly

#

i mean, it works

#

but it delays the code

shut crater
#

I think that's inevitable with the calculate_effect function

red flower
#

just return the message instead of using calculate_effect

hi n

How can i make it so it applies to a random joker?

hello!! just popping into the server to ask: how do i alter the sprite for playing cards? not suits, but specifically the blank sprite they're overlaid onto. from what i can tell, the actual sprite itself is located in the decks/enhancers sprite sheet and i've altered that.

however, malverk doesn't seem to be changing anything despite successfully altering both deck and enhancer sprites, and the source code of the mods i've looked at that do change the playing card sprite haven't been informative as to what line of code does the job

wintry solar
acoustic briar

yup

wintry solar
#

Add this anywhere

local keys_table = Malverk.keys.Enhanced
table.insert(keys_table, "c_base")

And add this in the enhancement alttexture

That should work

thank you!!

In fact you can store anything in a table, either by an index(number starting from 1 to almost any number) or key (a word to access the value)

#

You can also loop through a table by using for loops

ok coming back to this, how would i add a delay in here?

#

no, in a table that can be pulled from

#

like if this value then give this much mult, if this value then give this much

broken cliff
#

Ok so a storage of hand types, with hand information?

#

Only straights and straight flushes?

cunning barn
#

yep just those

broken cliff
#

If context.poker_hands[hand_name] then

#

Be wary, a straight flush contains a straight too

#

Hand_name is the name of the hand, as in "Straight Flush"

wintry solar
#

Just check context.scoring_name

how do i check if a card is a wild card?

cunning barn
#

so like

if context.scoring_name[Straight] then [code to add +x1 mult]
if context.scoring_name[Straight Flush] then [code to add +x2 mult]

something like that?

gusty iron

#

context.scoring_name == "Straight"

#

it's not a table

cunning barn
#

alright i think i can handle that then

brazen tusk
#

Anyone know how to resolve this?

#

dont use context inside an event, store it somewhere else first

brazen tusk
#

so js somewhere else put variable = context.other_card?

red flower
#

ye

brazen tusk

aight ty

# 
suit = card.base.suit
table.insert(accepted, card)
elseif card.base.value ~= rank or card.base:is_suit(suit) then

would this snippet of code work? (im trying to make my hands wild-card compatible)

brazen tusk
#

me when i couldnt think of a variable name lmao

this is what i have for the xmult code. still unsure of what i have to do to make it so that i can have 2 xmult values

config = { extra = { Xmult_gain = 1, [do something about the Xmult gain 2 variable] Xmult = 1 } },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.Xmult_gain, card.ability.extra.Xmult } }
    end,
    rarity = 4,
    atlas = 'hsr',
    pos = { x = 2, y = 0 },
    soul_pos = { x = 3, y = 0 },
    cost = 3,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.before and context.main_eval and context.scoring_name == "Straight" then
            card.ability.extra.Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult + #context.cards * card.ability.extra.Xmult_gain
        end
        if context.before and context.main_eval and context.scoring_name == "Straight Flush" then
            card.ability.extra.Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult + #context.cards * card.ability.extra.[second xmult gain variable]
        end
    end
}```
#

apologies for the terrible formatting idk how to put it into a box like this

#

the lack of xmult gain 2 variable is intentional because i dunno how to define it
