[slow brook]

can I save a whole hand and make it guaranteed that the exact same hand will be drawn next blind?

and would that break if between the blinds i buy a card that increases my hand size

[hard needle]

how can i get the amount of hands and discards when a blind is set (this should also account for stuff like burglar) i tried to add an event with a delay to set a var to the hands and discards left but it doesnt seem to account for burglar

[crisp coral]

burglar always proc after set_blind

but try the hand drawn function

[turbid maple]

burgars proc in my belly

[crisp coral]

burgers on my mind

[unborn bay]

hi void

burger

[turbid maple]

my card occasionally has a card stored within its c.a.e and id like to render it inside the card (this is not vore) can i accomplish this with a drawstep

hiya

i have never done any advanced graphics fuckery let alone a single legendary card

[unborn bay]

drawsteps are just extra draw calls to cards yeah

[primal robin]

So in this call I can add particles to card or remove them depends on condition right?

[turbid maple]

so call draw on the card inside the drawstep?

[unborn bay]

maybe, that'll call all the relevant steps as well

[primal robin]

Okay, how I can add soul sprite for blind?

[unborn bay]

sirote?

[manic rune]

shouldnt this put the text ui on top of the card, or at least have it follow the card

sob

[hardy viper]

burgers

yum

[red flower]

try putting it in card.children

[unborn bay]

i believe the base draw function draws first than the card here

yeah you might need to put it in card.children

[manic rune]

a

one sec

[unborn bay]

bepisfever

[red flower]

bewiswever

[manic rune]

nope

[red flower]

damn

[manic rune]

merlinsotrue

the ui text isnt seen anywhere, i tried dragging the card off to an empty space just to make sure its not behind (it isnt)

why is it here though??? 😭

[slow brook]

with calc_dollar_bonus, how can i add a sound that plays when the bonus is shown on screen and the card shakes, and not when actually calculating the bonus

[unborn bay]

i think you might need to set the major of the ui element

[manic rune]

no, i think i figured it out

the ui just

does not update at all

if i set the major to Strong then it appears where the cards were

[unborn bay]

😭

[manic rune]

which means that it DID move

but never update its position a single time afterwards

and i dont think i have enough brain cells to even figure out why the fuck that is the case

:3

[unborn bay]

i guess its because those don't update when a menu is on the screen

[manic rune]

that might be it

might be because of this little line, who knows

[unborn bay]

yeah no LMAO

i believe any elements made after that just don't update

or was it before

actually lemme check

since i did that for dos cards

[manic rune]

i

it wasnt the case???

[unborn bay]

☹️

[primal robin]

Check #G.I.SPRITE

[manic rune]

🤔 what does the number tell me

[primal robin]

How much sprites are rendered atm

[manic rune]

180

[primal robin]

card's front is a sprite

[manic rune]

when i open the inventory, its 210

[primal robin]

Most likely you are replacing card sprite without removing old one

[manic rune]

doesnt this remove the old sprite though

-# bad arrow, sorry :3

[primal robin]

It should

[manic rune]

if i close the inventory and its still 180, does that mean the old sprite is properly removed?

[native zinc]

lua ui hard

[unborn bay]

****ui hard

[native zinc]

***hard

[unborn bay]

****

[native zinc]

idk i like css

well okay css is bad die die kill on sight

but it's still ok

[unborn bay]

i loathe css

i loathe html

i hate webdev

why are we normalizing webdev on desktop

[shell timber]

css is fine if you do it right (literally just set the font and background colour)

[cerulean bane]

caniKILLandMURDER at her EVIL computer writing EVIL lua

[manic rune]

this is why i couldnt make stackable items

🥀

[unborn bay]

bepis

[manic rune]

couldnt figure out wtf is going on with the ui for god sake

hi haya

[slow brook]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1249793987070525451/1375101147504967840/VERT_2025-05-22_15-18-55.mp4?ex=6830763d&is=682f24bd&hm=d6f557a48b840d7bc74aeba632f50faa08fb4c4e62b5ee4409969466c4c4dab3& How can I make the sunflower to emit that sound not when it does in the video, but at the same time as its name appears on the money screen and it does that little shake

[primal robin]

You can check G.I.SPRITE[180] and find a tlas name and pos

[native zinc]

you jest but i hold a knife in my youtube pfp

[primal robin]

So you can find out what this sprite is

[manic rune]

a

idk

[native zinc]

why is it named chips

[manic rune]

we just dont know

[native zinc]

why are you looking at the atlas

[manic rune]

:3

[native zinc]

why not just eval G.I.SPRITE[180] ...

[manic rune]

i did

didnt give that much useful information though

[primal robin]

chips is vanilla sprite

[manic rune]

figured as much

🤔 does it have any impact on my ui tho

[primal robin]

Yes it is

Most likely on your card also present stake chip

[turbid maple]

im sure thats lovely patching territory

[primal robin]

Which you didn't remove

[slow brook]

damn, maybe ill just delay it till i find a perfect timing

[lyric blade]

I got an idea for a boss blind.

The Vanilla
All Jokers from any mods are debuffed

[turbid maple]

thatd break if you had other jokers giving money

[slow brook]

yeah I know that's the problem

[turbid maple]

finally... the first good balatro mod...

[native zinc]

this is just kinda annoying to mod pack players and no one else

[unborn bay]

Remember what they say, you cannot escape the lovely patch

[native zinc]

i've been escaping lovely patches for a long time :)

[unborn bay]

bountiful

[native zinc]

hi

[lyric blade]

Yes

[slow brook]

i will i have to

[shell timber]

hi bountiful

[primal robin]

You're just delaying unavoidable

[native zinc]

personally it's a bad idea to stop players based on personal choices of the mods they want to play

like yeah you can stop a build but like stoping an entire type of player regardless of their gameplay choices is bad

[primal robin]

Making a blind "you lose if you don't have a gold card" by itself is stupid idea

[unborn bay]

yahimod:

[primal robin]

Maybe its funny but it's not fun

[lyric blade]

Maybe catch that moment where it shakes and if it shakes make sound but idk how

[unborn bay]

i should probably reorganize these

[slow brook]

yeah i hope there is a way to catch that moment

[lyric blade]

Well it's just a blind, not a whole deck

[turbid maple]

boss blind: you lose if a joker gives you xchips or ^chips or whatever god did not intend to exist

[native zinc]

yeah but it's a run ender

it ends the run if you're playing something with a large amount of modded jokers

[unborn bay]

banner.toml is just a patch specifically for the banner mod btw lmao

just to get rid of the banner prompt for mechanic/wild dos card

since that brings up the collection menu

[hard needle]

yeah that seemed to work, thanks

[lyric blade]

Yeah... you can reroll the boss if you have the Voucher, or that Legendary Joker

[native zinc]

if you're playing something with a large amount of modded jokers you also get less chances to roll directors cut or get chicot

i mean this goes for any blind tbh you can't even vouch to get those things in vanilla

yet alone one quabillion things

[cerulean bane]

just play challenger’s deck in finity and start with director’s cut i mean what

[unborn bay]

finity mentioned

but yeah not everyone will get director's cut/retcon in a run

[turbid maple]

not a fan of blinds that are too polarizing

[lyric blade]

But I know, I'd still maybe do it because... it's funny. Maybe make it an optional boss you can turn on/off, or just a separate mod

[native zinc]

the same mod also has "all modded jokers are debuffed"

and

"all vanilla jokers are debuffed"

nobody wins... true neutrality

[lyric blade]

Or this

[turbid maple]

all jokers are debuffed

[native zinc]

"everything is debuffed. blind requirement is 300"

[lyric blade]

Or be kind and say ,,All Jokers debuffed until one modded Joker sold"

"Your score is multiplied by 0"

[native zinc]

i feel like "No base score" would be kinder

[cerulean bane]

turquoise tornado

[unborn bay]

evil combo

turquoise turnado with the needle

[cerulean bane]

psychic + nostalgic arm in obsidian orb

[native zinc]

imo blinds should probably be challenges that encourage smart gameplay or circumvention and really shouldn't kill builds all that often

either that or are just mildly annoying

[lyric blade]

How about "Game Over when blind selected"

[turbid maple]

uninstalls balatro and wipes your save if you lose to this blind

[native zinc]

good idea

because then i would stop playing the mod

then again to be fair

fuck hologram lol

[unborn bay]

smiley face

with three eyes

[native zinc]

three eyes

damnit

too slow

[unborn bay]

haha

[lyric blade]

What are three eyes

[turbid maple]

シ

[lyric blade]

Oh

nvm

I need a mod that closes Balatro when I open Balatro

[turbid maple]

more like opens balatro when you close it

[lyric blade]

Even better

Installs Balatro when you unintall it

[slow brook]

how do i discard every card in hand at once

[lyric blade]

How is that blind called that discards 2 cards at every play

[slow brook]

the hook

[lyric blade]

Do first G.hand:add_to_highlighted(some_card, true) and this with all the cards in hand, then G.FUNCS.discard_cards_from_highlighted(nil, true)

Maybe there is some other way but that's one of them

[bleak crane]

the world if my code worked without outside help

sighhhhh
why wont this work?

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            if context.cardarea == G.play and context.repetition and not context.repetition_only then
                if context.other_card:is_suit("Clubs") or context.other_card:is_suit("Spades") then
                    return {
                        mult = card.ability.extra.mult,
                        card = context.blueprint_card or card
                    }
                elseif context.other_card:is_suit("Hearts") or context.other_card:is_suit("Diamonds") then
                    return {
                        Xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult,
                        card = context.blueprint_card or card
                    }
                end
            end
        end
    end

[red flower]

context.joker_main and context.repetition are not true at the same time

[slow brook]

how do i discard a specific card manually

i got a local c = G.hand.cards[i] in a for loop and i want to discard c

[lyric blade]

G.hand:add_to_highlighted(c, true)
G.FUNCS.discard_cards_from_highlighted(nil, true)

I guess

[slow brook]

it discards 5 cards and I want to discard all of them, also doesn't draw cards back so im left with 3 cards after that

[lyric blade]

hmmmm

You could repeat that until you have no cards to discard XDD
There's probably a function for drawing cards wait

G.FUNCS.draw_from_deck_to_hand(number of cards?) is for drawing cards

[slow brook]

how do i check if the player is currently in boss blind

[red flower]

G.GAME.blind.boss

[slow brook]

where can i find a list of all G.GAME or G.C stuff so i dont have to ask everytime for the simplest things

[daring fern]

Colours are here: https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Text-Styling

[slow brook]

so.. is there no context when a card is counted in the round won money counting screen?

[daring fern]

No, there isn't.

[slow brook]

so theres no way to add a sound and a message to it?

[daring fern]

There probably is.

[slow brook]

I guess it would require patching

[unborn bay]

the humble lovely patch yeah

[slow brook]

yeah not getting into that (yet, I’m way too begginer for that)

[vast night]

Hi again. Does any1 know how I can add a new event that removes money. The problem is that you cant deduct money when a joker is sold

nvm

ease_dollars

[daring fern]

You can.

[vast night]

it dosen't work with me even if the variable is correct

[tall jewel]

How would you render custom arbitrary text in an info_queue panel without a bunch of hacky methods

If it's even possible

[slow brook]

localization file is the way i did it

[tall jewel]

Could I see how you did it?

I'd much prefer not to create a dummy joker/tag/card for it

[slow brook]

first image: a joker you want to have an info queue on (you don't need the vars = {} if you don't need any value afaik)
second image: Mods/YourModName/localization/en-us.lua

[tall jewel]

Ah, thank you

The localization stuff confused me so much

I'll try it out in a bit

I was spending like 4 hours trying to get it working for a silly joke on one of my jokers

[slow brook]

why does it do thattt

[hardy viper]

probably because of the recalculate

oh

[zealous glen]

Probably discarding at the wrong time

[slow brook]

yeah but it still doesn't do what i want anyway

[hardy viper]

move the discard_cards_from_highlighted out of the loop

[zealous glen]

Maybe that helps

You need to be careful when moving cards and when destroying cards

If you do it at the wrong time it breaks things

[slow brook]

now recalculate crashes game

[hardy viper]

moment

[zealous glen]

You might need to use events

And maybe lock the player’s actions

[hardy viper]

it's probably because of weird state stuff to do with discrading while using a consumable

so yeah use an event

[slow brook]

if only i knew how to do that... gonna have to figure it out later ig

[hardy viper]

smods documentation covers it

[harsh sonnet]

guysss why does my shallow_copy of G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability.mult pull a nil value on the jimbo joker and immediatly crash the game :(
(ref code im trying to understand provided by baimao)

[vast night]

Hi guys. Does anybody know how i can make kings, queens, jacks and aces all count as the same suit, similarly on how smeared and paredolia do it

[vast night]

shallow_copy dosen't exist

says the error

[hardy viper]

do you intend to call SMODS.shallow_copy because i think that exists

[harsh sonnet]

probably?

[vast night]

just try :)

[harsh sonnet]

ya that does it

thank uuuuu

[quick kraken]

Is there a way to check if a boss blind is a finisher?

[slow brook]

finisher?

[quick kraken]

The Ante 8 blinds

[zealous glen]

Yes

[quick kraken]

Which is, without hardcoding a table with all the finishers?

[digital sun]

im trying to get this to only trigger once but its triggering for each card that ive discarded
its supposed to be a joker that gains chips and mult each time you run out of discards

[zealous glen]

Take a look at the part of vanilla code that defined all Bosses, or at SMODS’ wiki

[quick kraken]

oh it's config.blind.boss.showdown

[digital sun]

ignore the G.hand.cards[1] part that was me trying to make it only trigger for the first card as a workaround but i realized that it would play an animation for the first card

[zealous glen]

Also that doesn’t do that

[digital sun]

yeah ik

[zealous glen]

Take a look at the wiki

[zealous glen]

It just checks if the hand isn’t empty

[digital sun]

I thought G.hand.cards[1] was getting the first card
i was going to add more but im too dumb to think of what to check if its equal to

[zealous glen]

As I said, it checks if the hand isn’t empty

It’s not empty if it has a first card

It doesn’t do anything else with that card, it only checks if it exists

You’re not comparing that card with anything else

[digital sun]

yeah im saying i wouldve if i knew what to check it with

i didnt finish coding that one specific part

i just need it to only trigger once when you discard

[slow brook]

why no work

[red flower]

what's i? what's .discarded? what's begin_discard?

[slow brook]

no idea tbh i lost hope so im using chat gpt now...

[high sinew]

^ not sure what this one is doing

What is ur goal for what it does

[slow brook]

consumable that discards your whole hand

[high sinew]

When used?

[slow brook]

yes

[high sinew]

You will probably want to look into context calculations for SMODS

Do you know where this is?

[digital sun]

nvm i figured it out
i did context.pre_discard and G.GAME.current_round.discards_left == 1

[red flower]

sadly chatgpt doesn't know balatro so unless you know what you're doing it's not going to help

[slow brook]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Calculate-Functions here I guess right

[high sinew]

Agreee it’s better to learn Lua and SMODS documentation and use gtp as a resource for other stuff

[slow brook]

yeah it's really making stuff up every time and have actually helped me only once

[high sinew]

Yes I would begin to understand how context works

Like using context.discard is my initial guess for ur consumable but also im not sure i understand the point of a consumable that discards hand, sorry

[slow brook]

a normal discard can only discard 5 cards and i want a card to discard every card and also not use up a discard

[red flower]

you can't use context in use

[high sinew]

Oh shoot forgot lol I just never hear a consumable that discards for u

[high sinew]

So give extra discards?

[slow brook]

nope, if you have 3 discards you use that consumable, it discards everything, and you still have 3 discards after that

[high sinew]

So how that cryptid card works is what I’m hearing

I think it’s called reset

[high sinew]

Go look at reboot in code.lua in cryptid I think that will help you

[slow brook]

dear god that works

[red flower]

that does all cards discarded the entire round right?

[slow brook]

nope... the cards come back.. and it's not even random they always come back in the same order

yeah i cant read draw_from_discard_to_deck guess what that does

[tall jewel]

(doujinshi as in, fan-made work, ships, etc)

[slow brook]

I can't believe that I spent 3 hours on something that is one line long

[tall jewel]

nyehehe

ty kfer

[onyx ridge]

idk why, but it removes the enhancement first before retrigger

[tall jewel]

event after a delay?

[modern kindle]

good schmorning chat

[tall jewel]

's what i did for creating the lesbian cards with tarots

make source card queen of hearts + lesbian -> duplicate after .1s and play tarot use sound

[red flower]

use an event, calculations are done before all the animations happen

also don't return card:set_ability

[modern kindle]

how are you N

[red flower]

im doing good
Wbu

[modern kindle]

im very tired, i woke up 7 minutes ago in time for my class starting now lmfao

thank god its online

[manic rune]

good morning dilly

[modern kindle]

hi bepis, how is your night

[manic rune]

its okay

not much happened :p

[zealous glen]

Schood evening Dilly

[modern kindle]

then make somethin happen silly

[modern kindle]

hello vic, how fares you

[high sinew]

🙂

Use other mods to ur benefit

[zealous glen]

I’m okay

[modern kindle]

its true, you should also play my hit mod called balatro star rail, i put a ton of work into my mod called balatro star rail its very star rail in balatro you should play it
this guy @manic rune thought i did a good job

[manic rune]

😭

[high sinew]

Idk if I know that one lol is it on Mira or post?

[zealous glen]

Hey dilly thanks for adding that feature to your mod, Balatro Star Rail, that saved those orphan dogs from the dog orphanage from drowning and rebuilding the orphanage after the fire

Amazing what you accomplished with a Balatro mod

[modern kindle]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1338562637453066240

[modern kindle]

hey what can i say, im a peoples person
im here to help

[manic rune]

i cant

i uh

:3

[modern kindle]

im going to make something happen

stay tuned

[zealous glen]

You can always stab[REDACTED]

[manic rune]

😭

let me try

[high sinew]

Hype I’ll check out

[zealous glen]

For legal reasons don’t stab

[manic rune]

i shall stab

[modern kindle]

i think you should stab

[manic rune]

i agreee

[zealous glen]

Bats should you think I

[modern kindle]

i think if you get arrested you can blame vic and vic will get in trouble but you wont

cause vic said it first

[manic rune]

vic manipulated me

reverse psychology stuff idk

:3

[modern kindle]

its true it was allllll vics fault

[manic rune]

so true dilly

[modern kindle]

silly bepis doesnt have free will

bepis is only controlled

[manic rune]

bepis is a collective being, controlled by more than one person

the more you know

[slow brook]

does that make sense, do you guys understand what the joker does from my description

[modern kindle]

i think the problem comes from making people do math from the card, i can understand it but whos gonna wanna sit there and think of what the squared result is

ideally if a hand is selected itd be neat for the card to displayt he mult it would give

[high sinew]

Is that a pvz mod?

[slow brook]

yup

[manic rune]

using 2 as an example is not a good idea

sob

[red flower]

hey theres a mod for that

[high sinew]

Agreeed love adding it for my peeps

[slow brook]

yeah just changed it to 3 and 9

[modern kindle]

it should be built in..

[high sinew]

I usually add joker display compat now and localization technique so u can see output

[modern kindle]

i truthfully dont even think any of my stuff has built in joker display compat i should try and work on that

[red flower]

its true, jokerdisplay should be in the base game

[modern kindle]

the only mod i tried integrating and was successful in was talisman

[manic rune]

its true, localthunk acknowledged it

[high sinew]

It’s very easy to do if u don’t know how

[slow brook]

never heard of that

[modern kindle]

is there anything special i gotta do for jokerdisplay

[red flower]

yes

write the code

[high sinew]

It’s a mod for joker display but you can also add ur own

[modern kindle]

well thats outta my depth i dont know what code is

[red flower]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1241580123766128761

[high sinew]

I have for a leveling pepper system in my mod that I made where it will tell you Mult it gives in total

It changes joker or pepper and keeps the previous mult from peppers

[modern kindle]

but give me the tldr rundown of what i gotta add for joker display compat

so i can add it to my list

[chrome widget]

What is joker display?

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/JokerDisplay/wiki

[high sinew]

I can help you out feel free to dm with questions

[high sinew]

This is clutch asf too

[red flower]

😦

[modern kindle]

all this work i gotta do....

[red flower]

bean uses it

[modern kindle]

but much obliged ill get into it

[red flower]

this is why joyousspring doesnt have full support :3

[chrome widget]

Oh I see. That reads as a little too cluttered for me

[high sinew]

It’s not too hard to add imo

[chrome widget]

But it's a nice option!!

[red flower]

there are options to display them differently but yeah

[modern kindle]

i figure its nice to add compat for in the way i did talisman, my mod works both with and without talisman installed
so since jhoker display lets me make it regarding if its installed or not works well

[high sinew]

Yee you can toggle what shows for it

[modern kindle]

makes it so i can just make it if people wanna

[high sinew]

I’ll send a joker display example for u

This is how they kinda look

Only wil display if activated and so

[red flower]

in the newest update you can just add them to the joker definition

[high sinew]

Yooooo

New update?!

[red flower]

i mean its like 5 months old by now

[high sinew]

Might have to go back and change all my code for joker display 😂

I followed a diff mod way of how they did but def gotta look into that

[modern kindle]

i was gonna say what ive seen is gonna make it a nuisance to add a whole extra fuckin file full of definitions for all my goons
but if i can just add it to joker def thatd be ideal

[slow brook]

how do i get the lvl of the hand played?

[high sinew]

Yea def a tedious thing to do but why I set mine up early on for my mod

[red flower]

G.GAME.hands[context.scoring_name].level

[high sinew]

Most of my cards had similar text tho so it was easy to make a dummy joker display and use for a lot

[modern kindle]

i didnt even set up talisman compat until i was like 50 jokers in, and i didnt even split up my files until then either
i didnt have a localization file until like a month ago lmfao

[high sinew]

Godamn 😂

[modern kindle]

all of my shit was in one file

[high sinew]

Yea I set up talisman immediately a month back when starting out my mod

[modern kindle]

a couple of us didnt really want to put talisman compat in because its oto much bs to care about

[high sinew]

Cause the pepper level joker was first idea and needed talisman for the Carolina reaper and future jokers

[high sinew]

I don’t blame u it’s a help mod for stuff I wanna do in future of my mod so I have it in for now

[modern kindle]

my mod is much better separated now at least

[high sinew]

But it’s barely used rn in it since most jokers are pretty vanilla code

lol you should see the folders in Rafa and i’s mod crazy amount

[modern kindle]

i need to separate a little more, but i never find it worth it to have another file unless theres a substantial amonut

[high sinew]

So much code 😂

I’m too organized 🫨

[modern kindle]

i know some crazy people do 1 joker per file

[high sinew]

Like me…?😬

😖

[modern kindle]

not me though, this is my joker file lmao

[high sinew]

Holy hell

Long file baby 🤤

[modern kindle]

yea shes a big one

[high sinew]

Yee I decided a lot of small files

Seperate by what they are

[modern kindle]

its real funny cause i can go back to the first one i made
and the most recent one i made

and see how much more ive learned

[high sinew]

lol same

[modern kindle]

cause i havent changed shit from my first joker

[high sinew]

Yea that’s fair

I just finished my first set of the joker ideas I had set wise so I highly imma touch em again for a while

[modern kindle]

my terrible mindset is that if it works i try to not change it
i know things can be done so much better
but if it functions thats my goal

[high sinew]

Besides prob added sum sound fx and shi

[high sinew]

Only change if broken or bugged or needs fixing is best way

[modern kindle]

yea thats my general idea

[high sinew]

Yee how I’ve been doing mine so I get it

But once I set up one transformer joker in my set for seeets all were so easy to make

[modern kindle]

i know some people would look at my code and say 'what.'
but hey
if it works..

[high sinew]

And since I haven’t honestly seen any other mod do that idea I knew I had to lock in on it for the sweet set in mod

[high sinew]

Same 😂

I hope no one peeks the fucking logic for the enfuse snacks

They will be livid

One text block of it…

Cause it checks if cards have enhancement and if so gives new one

[modern kindle]

my most annoying joker was probably my freakin secret service joker
cause i had to back then figure out how to manage cards being destroyed with tarots and if they were glass and etc
cause i needed specific ranks, and then checking for specific shit for retriggers, then making duplication work properly

[high sinew]

I love statistics that’s those random chances 😂

[high sinew]

My god so complicated yea I see what u mean

Mine are pretty simple features cause I didn’t wanna over complicate yet 🫩

[modern kindle]

the neat thing is the number sold is random each run from 5-10

so it changes per run, could be 5 one run, next run is 9, etc

[high sinew]

That’s actually really cool this is most of my joker set for sweet

The idea if hand played turns cards into enhancements specified

[modern kindle]

ooo icic
what does frosti do

[tall jewel]

i think this is fair enough (it's gonna be turned into a rare joker at some point), the amount earned is weighted slightly towards the min value

[high sinew]

My favorite one I made

[modern kindle]

ooooo
money

[tall jewel]

oooooooo

[high sinew]

It can get pretty insane

[slow brook]

can i return 2 messages at once in calculate so it first displays one message and then the second one?

[turbid maple]

SMODS.calculate_effects

[high sinew]

I had hanging Chad with sock and bussin with a frosting king hot that baby up to like $30 crazy

[slow brook]

cuz I want to have a message that's funny but also a message that tells you what the joker did

[high sinew]

That’s easy!

All my jokers say a funny message when triggered

[gusty iron]

i feel like doing a joker per file is most efficient and readable

[high sinew]

Gingy triggers a sound fx of the scene when he gets kidnapped by lord Farquhad

[tall jewel]

if it's something builtin (ie, +money, or +-mult/chips) you can just do this

it'll do the +money first

[high sinew]

And asks him who the muffin man is 😂

[slow brook]

then what would you do so that works

[modern kindle]

i think readability doesnt come into play when ctrl f exists

if youre in a centralized joker file you know what youre dealing with
if the entire mod is in one file then i think readability sucks but

[slow brook]

I want funny message first and then what the joker actually did

[modern kindle]

i think if the file is all jokers readability is more of a non issue

[high sinew]

If you wanna see if you like the way I design feel free to try my mod see if that’s the way u wanna do it

[slow brook]

or that backwards, idc

[tall jewel]

rn everything's in one file for now but it'll be changed once i'm closer to completion

mostly so I can only have to watch a single file with the debug mod

[high sinew]

All sweet jokers have messages and sounds btw

[tall jewel]

i wish there was an auto-watch feature

readability shouldn't be something you worry about until you're ready to release

if it's for you then if you understand it it's fine

[modern kindle]

i do recommend getting your split up done sooner
only because my god making my localization file was ass after so long

[tall jewel]

yeah im working towards localization

buut atm i just want features over style/readability

I've always programmed this way, features/implementation over readability/reusability

[high sinew]

Localization is supreme use it and fix up ur code as soon as possible 😪

[tall jewel]

once it works you can make it more readable but until then you should pump out features instead

[modern kindle]

yea i agree with that
frankly my belief is when my mod releases people dont need to think my code is beautiful, its for me to udnerstand at the end of the day
and my mod wont be a stand in for learning

you got people like bepis, eremel, n for that
im no savant of code

[high sinew]

I started same way with no localization very big mistake

[tall jewel]

yeeee

[modern kindle]

i do at the least try and make up for it with comments

[tall jewel]

i do like to make an api of sorts before publishing to make things easier for people to add things

comments arent something you should overuse, verbose variables are better

[high sinew]

If early release of mod ur making I would just specify it’s pre release maybe you can do in git and see what bugs or stuff people run into before real

[tall jewel]

ie instead of doing
-- this does something
do
this.something()

[tall jewel]

ye

[high sinew]

Yus super helpful it’s how I’m designing mine

[tall jewel]

As an example, something like this, where the variables themselves explain what they do

[high sinew]

Yee that’s helpful

I wouldn’t worry about making code a whole book on how you did just focus on making work

[minor magnet]

is there a context for enhancements for when they're drawn to hand?

[high sinew]

You can add that stuff later once it’s working for peeps

[tall jewel]

[high sinew]

Yus poll enhancements and has enhancements

[modern kindle]

i mean yea you have things like mult and stuff which are self explanatory, but i still prefer comments

like yea duplicated_to_add is pretty self explanatory, but i still like leaving shit like the comment i posted

[high sinew]

Depends on what for

[minor magnet]

no wait i'll explain better

[tall jewel]

changing duplicates_to_add to added_joker_duplicates or something similar would have the same effect

[minor magnet]

in an enhancement code, i want an effect to occur when it is drawn to hand

[tall jewel]

At the end of the day, it's your choice

I just think it's easier, personally

[high sinew]

I gotchu

[modern kindle]

yea idk, i think it makes it easier for someone who doesnt know what theyre doing to read comments
but end of the day its personal pref

[tall jewel]

yee

[wind steppe]

does anyone know why this triggers at the wrong time? the extra joker slot triggers 3 times when the booster pack is opened instead of once when a joker is selected from it

SMODS.Booster{
    key = 'foodpack',
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Food Pack',
        text = {
            'Choose 1 of 3 Food Jokers with a Negative Sticker'
        },
        group_name = '(You\'d like...)'
    },
    config = {extra = 3, choose = 1},
    atlas = 'Boosters',
    pos = { x = 1, y = 0 },
    create_card = function(self, card)
        return SMODS.create_card({set = "Food", area = G.pack_cards, skip_materialize = true, key_append = "does rng seeding matter that much?", stickers = {'para_negativesticker'}, edition = 'e_negative'})
    end,
    weight = 0,
    cost = 0
}
SMODS.Sticker{
    key = 'negativesticker',
    sets = {Joker = true},
    rate = 0,
    atlas = 'Stickers',
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    should_apply = false,
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'negative sticker',
        text = {
            '+1 Joker Slot'
        }
    },
    apply = function(self, card, val)
        G.jokers.config.card_limit = G.jokers.config.card_limit + 1
    end,
}

[tall jewel]

[high sinew]

Like steel checks if in hand?

[tall jewel]

check if it's being added to the joker bar?

[high sinew]

For Xmult

[tall jewel]

if context.card_added and context.cardares == G.jokers then
...
end

[minor magnet]

not really, like on card drawn

[tall jewel]

oh are you meaning when the sticker is used?

or something is picked from the voucher

[minor magnet]

i have it on hand_drawn, but it doesn't account for card drawn after the handsize changes

[modern kindle]

probably not ideal but couldnt you throw a check in update or somethin

[wind steppe]

when the joker leaves the booster pack and goes into the joker slots

[modern kindle]

checking handsize and if the card was drawn

[high sinew]

I’m not sure tbh I haven’t done myself or seen

[tall jewel]

then card_added and cardarea == G.jokers would work probably

[high sinew]

Idk any context checks for if drawn that turn

[tall jewel]

this would also pass if it's bought from shop, duplicated, or spawned

[hard mica]

im trying to organize my mod but it seems like this doesnt work?

i tried with a / as well

doesnt work and crashes

[slow brook]

what is jokers.wide

[high sinew]

Why is ur key for atlas so weird

[hard mica]

Why is it weird

[hard mica]

It's the path

[high sinew]

I’ve never seen an atlas key done that way

[modern kindle]

the key should just be the name of the png
ideally i make things one word or no spaces myself
ie WideJonklers.png

but yours does look weird

[hard mica]

Keys are suggested to be case sensitive

[high sinew]

I would suggest using _ for spaces

Not key

The atlas =

[modern kindle]

right yea im changing my shit

[high sinew]

Ur way of calling the png is hella strange

[hard mica]

I'm used to calling it like that from tboi modding

[modern kindle]

--Creates an atlas for cards to use
SMODS.Atlas {
    -- Key for code to find it with
    key = "tarots",
    -- The name of the file, for the code to pull the atlas from
    path = "Tarots.png",
    -- Width of each sprite in 1x size
    px = 71,
    -- Height of each sprite in 1x size
    py = 95
}

heres an example

the file is named Tarots.png

[slow brook]

how do i transform a joker into another one (not random, always into the same)

[high sinew]

I suggest doing it the way most people including myself build it call if simole names for urself and nothing weird

Like my jokers are literally sweet_jokers for name

[red flower]

joker:set_ability("j_modprefix_otherkey")

[slow brook]

and i guess otherkey is the joker's i want it to transform to key?

[high sinew]

Yes

[red flower]

yes

[spice wadi]

If it's not vanilla you need to put the mod prefix tho

[high sinew]

You need to use ur id you made in json always for anything creating

Mine is mills so you will see that imbedded all over my code

All jokers for ex have “j_mills_name”

Consumables “c_mills_name”

If not base game

[slow brook]

and if i want the joker to not be available in shop, so it can only be transformed to? something about pools?

[placid star]

i dont usually use loc entries so can anyone see what im doing wrong?

[tall jewel]

hehehehe

[high sinew]

Use in pool logic

To stop from what u want it to not spawn in

[tall jewel]

-- localization/en_us
{set = "Other", key = "gojo_deck", vars = {}}

return {
    descriptions = {
        Other = {
            gojo_deck= {
                name = "Gojo Deck",
                text = {
                    "Your text here icba to copy it"
                }
            }
        }
    }

}

[knotty compass]

heya how would you make consumable detect if theres already specific one in your consumables

[tall jewel]

oop

[tall jewel]

fixed

jjok

[wind steppe]

this doesn't seem to do anything? (other than show the sticker texture)

SMODS.Sticker{
    key = 'negativesticker',
    sets = {Joker = true},
    rate = 0,
    atlas = 'Stickers',
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    should_apply = false,
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Negative Sticker',
        text = {
            '{C:dark_edition}+1{} Joker Slot'
        }
    },
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.card_added and context.card_area == G.jokers then
            G.jokers.config.card_limit = G.jokers.config.card_limit + 1
        end
    end
}

[tall jewel]

oh wait

uh

i thought you'd attach it to a joker

im not sure how sticker calc functions work

[wind steppe]

i'm not convinced that anybody actually knows how SMODS.Sticker works

[slow brook]

so just in_pool = false? will that work and make it unobtainable in any way?

[wind steppe]

documentation sure doesn't

[high sinew]

in_pool = function(self, args)
return not args or not args.source or (args.source ~= 'sho' and args.source ~= 'sta')
end,

Stops from shop and packs

Like legendary

[placid star]

lmao

[slow brook]

can i make a joker not appear in the jokers list? probably not right

[high sinew]

Goes in deck not other pretty sure

[zealous glen]

I think Editions have a config value to automatically change CardArea limits

[worthy stirrup]

Hey, how could I have my boss do something whenever a heart is scored?

[modern kindle]

like in collection or in pool?

[high sinew]

I don’t think so sorry

[slow brook]

in collection

[modern kindle]

yea i was just about to say no collection exists

[high sinew]

Oh wow damn

Didn’t know that existed

[slow brook]

oh hell yeah

[tall jewel]

you would just use gojoeck not jjok_gojodeck

[knotty compass]

anyone knows that? :>

[daring heron]

does anyone know how i can add more quips to jimbo without changing the en_us file (since i want it to be like any other mod)

[high sinew]

Set up a function to check it?

[slow brook]

quips you mean info queues?

[red flower]

why is it not in Back?

[zealous glen]

When

[wind steppe]

i don't just want to add another negative edition

[placid star]

ive been told 3 different sets now

[zealous glen]

Anyways use SMODS.find_card

[daring heron]

quips, the lines jimbo says at the end of a run

[gusty iron]

any suggestions on what i should draw on this card

[zealous glen]

I’m explaining how Editions work. I think it’s easier to extend their code to Stickers and other objects

[zealous glen]

[red flower]

https://github.com/SpectralPack/Cryptid/blob/bd9d0f10293124c4261d378d74aa955eb63aa3e6/localization/en-us.lua#L3

[gusty iron]

TRUE!!

[wind steppe]

i don't think stickers have config?

documentation doesn't say anything about it

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

[placid star]

what would go in the loc_txt in this case

[hard mica]

i did but im trying to organize my mod cause rn its messy and i wanted to put the art for the jokers n such in different folders but not sure how to do the path cause it crashes

[modern kindle]

to be fair documentation doesnt answer alot fo things

[red flower]

nothing, you dont use loc_txt if you have a loc file

[knotty compass]

basically im making a consumable that when added checks if you dont have same one already, if yes destroys itself and boosts the other one

[high sinew]

I wouldn’t do it like this

[red flower]

show code

[hard mica]

then how

[high sinew]

https://github.com/Mills-44/FusionCookbook/blob/main/items/atlas.lua

[hybrid shadow]

config with stickers does work but you have to use it as self.config.extra.[varname]

[red flower]

b_modprefix_key

[high sinew]

How I set up mine

[zealous glen]

As I said before you can use SMODS.find_card

[hard mica]

yeah okay but i want my joker art to be in a different folder inside 1x so its more organized

but not sure how to do the path

[high sinew]

I wouldn’t mess with ur assests folder tbh

[worthy stirrup]

This is part of my boss blind code, when a heart is played, the little pop up for x.5 mult appears on the side instead of above the card, how could i fix this?

[high sinew]

Keep way it is

[worthy stirrup]

  calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.individual then
      if context.cardarea == G.play then
        if context.other_card:is_suit("Hearts") then
          return {
            x_mult = .5,
            card = card
          }
        end
      end
    end
  end

[hard mica]

damn if i let it like that , its just gonna be hella messy

[hybrid shadow]

how many assets are in your folder that you feel like its messy

[high sinew]

Just put all ur jokers in a set in same png?😯

[red flower]

you know and exists right?

[high sinew]

That’s how u organize it

[worthy stirrup]

im aware

[hard mica]

some jokers have different sizes so idek

[hard mica]

like 10

[wind steppe]

wait so would that be

    config = {card_limit = 1},
```or
```lua
    self.config.extra.card_limit = 1,

[hybrid shadow]

thats not a lot lol

[knotty compass]

thanks will see if my smooth brain can make it work

[high sinew]

Then you put any with that size in a seperate loop

[red flower]

anyway try removing card = card

[worthy stirrup]

got it, ill try that

[high sinew]

Set up ur main to call the file and readjust how I built atlas to way u want it’s very easy

To be changed

[hybrid shadow]

config = { extra = { card_limit = 1 } },

any time you refer to it outside of the config you use self.config.extra.card_limit

[worthy stirrup]

thanks, it worked

[wind steppe]

this still does nothing whatsoever

[hybrid shadow]

are you testing your loc_vars or the actual sticker code?

[wind steppe]

sticker code

dont have loc_vars for dynamic description yet

SMODS.Sticker{
    key = 'negativesticker',
    sets = {Joker = true},
    rate = 0,
    atlas = 'Stickers',
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    should_apply = false,
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Negative Sticker',
        text = {
            '{C:dark_edition}+1{} Joker Slot'
        },
        label = 'Negative Sticker'
    },
    badge_colour = G.C.DARK_EDITION,
    config = { extra = { card_limit = 1 } },
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.card_added and context.card_area == G.jokers then
            G.jokers.config.card_limit = G.jokers.config.card_limit + self.config.extra.card_limit
        end
    end

[hybrid shadow]

i may be stupid but shouldn't your math be in a return?

[worthy stirrup]

How do i check a cards ID again?

[gusty iron]

how would i add a joker and/or a consumable to the player's hand?

[worthy stirrup]

or rank

[gusty iron]

card:get_id()

itll return a number from 2 to 14

[tall jewel]

Is it possible to modify a vanilla blind to make it not appear with a specific deck?

[worthy stirrup]

thanks

[slow brook]

what is ease_discards actual right name because this one crashes

[gusty iron]

check wasteful code

[wind steppe]

this does the exact same thing (see: nothing)

return {card_limit = self.config.extra.card_limit}

[slow brook]

ok it's ease_discard i know now

[wind steppe]

i know minty's silly little mod does that, maybe look at that code?

[tall jewel]

could i mayhaps get a link to it?

[worthy stirrup]

is this able to be done bc i aint even sure

      if card:get_id() == 2 then
        return {
          mult = mult - 2
        }

[hybrid shadow]

where did the rest of the G.jokers.config.card_limit math go

[tall jewel]

nvm i think i got it

ty tho

[wind steppe]

whole calculate function is

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.card_added and context.card_area == G.jokers then
            -- G.jokers.config.card_limit = G.jokers.config.card_limit + self.config.extra.card_limit
            return {card_limit = self.config.extra.card_limit}
        end
    end

if ur returning mult or chips you dont have to manually add that so i assumed it was the same

[hybrid shadow]

that is not what i said at all

[wind steppe]

oh

wait what did you mean then

[hybrid shadow]

move the G.jokers.config.card_limit math into the return

remove all else in the return

[daring heron]

Bump

[wind steppe]

that just crashes?

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.card_added and context.card_area == G.jokers then
            -- G.jokers.config.card_limit = G.jokers.config.card_limit + self.config.extra.card_limit
            return {G.jokers.config.card_limit = G.jokers.config.card_limit + self.config.extra.card_limit}
        end
    end

[red flower]

dont do an assigment in a return

[worthy stirrup]

am i doing this right lmao

[red flower]

whats the effect

[wind steppe]

it'd just be return mult = -2 for the 2 i believe

[worthy stirrup]

"Aces, Twos, Threes, Fives, Eights subtract",
"their rank of mult when scored",
"(Aces count as 1)"

[gilded narwhal]

hey gang how would I make context.end_of_round call only once for a deck calculate function

I tried main_eval but that only works for jokers apparently

[red flower]

not context.repetition and not context.individual

[wind steppe]

what do i return then

[red flower]

nothing

[worthy stirrup]

does this make a message for me or do i need to do it my self?

[wind steppe]

it should make a message automatically since ur returning mult

[gilded narwhal]

That still makes it return a bunch of times

[red flower]

can i see the code

[red flower]

youre missing the individual

[gilded narwhal]

OH

mb i didn't see that

[worthy stirrup]

shit, i forgot to mention, this is a boss blind calcuate, not sure if that effects anything or not

but, its seemingly not noticing that the numbers are being played

wait

i forgot to do end for the last calcualte part

[wind steppe]

i dont think calculate works on boss blinds?

[worthy stirrup]

it weirdly does

[wind steppe]

this is from the documentation tho so take it with a grain of salt

[red flower]

it does

its a new thing

[wind steppe]

has anyone here actually worked with stickers and knows how they work? i no longer trust the documentation

[red flower]

context.other_card:get_id()

[worthy stirrup]

oh

fuck

it really do be my own self fucking up my code

idk if i wanna fix this or not

[wind steppe]

its funny is the thing

[hard mica]

is it possible for a seal to be able to copy other seals? like i want a seal to be randomize itself every ante to a random seal , so ante 1 has the red seal and ante 2 it has the gold seal , is it possible?

[worthy stirrup]

pros: its funny
cons: its negative chips

[wind steppe]

also did you really make a blind specifically to counter fibonacci

what did fibonacci ever do to you

[worthy stirrup]

yes

i made 14 boss blinds to counter jokers

[wind steppe]

make 136 more

no joker is safe

[modern kindle]

can you make a joker that counters my blind

[worthy stirrup]

you must think i have free time

[hybrid shadow]

boss blind -4 mult lmao

[tall jewel]

yes

/j

[worthy stirrup]

i wish

[wind steppe]

one that specifically debuffs luchador and nothing else

[wind steppe]

really more of a baseball card counter tbh

[slow brook]

really hard probably, but how can i save the first discarded card in a round to then make it guaranteed to be drawn in the first hand of the next round?
and also that but for the entire hand

[worthy stirrup]

the fun part is im just playing balatro normally until i encounter my boss blind and then i just code it to work

[hybrid shadow]

The Ball - Cards of Uncommon rarity give 0.5X Mult

[worthy stirrup]

i might add that actually

[slow brook]

"the head cannot appear as a boss blind" lmao

[modern kindle]

i dont got that kinda patience cause half the time my blinds crash

[hard mica]

how can i check if a round has changed/ended?

[wind steppe]

i feel like if you wanted to counter matador you'd just make it do nothing

[worthy stirrup]

i get to play balatro and then i code

[modern kindle]

that reminds me though i need to further improve my gauntlet blind

[tall jewel]

all heart cards are debuffed, all lesbian cards are queen of hearts (by default)

[modern kindle]

its a 3 phase blind that does quirky shit

[worthy stirrup]

FUCK,

i got deathed

[wind steppe]

you got converted into the right card?

[worthy stirrup]

YEA...

[hybrid shadow]

Blind: The Life - turns all cards held in hand into the right card when hand played

[tall jewel]

that sounds fun

[scarlet storm]

boss blinds entire ability is shop rerolls cost double (has 0 effect because you can't access the shop during a boss blind)

[hard mica]

anyone know?

[wind steppe]

not my cryptid ://RUN

[hybrid shadow]

Baron Mime build, put red seal steel king on the right of held hand, play high card, profit

[scarlet storm]

://RUN 🤧

[wind steppe]

bad idea: everytime you encounter it theres a chance for it to be the left card instead

reading the blind explains the blind

[tall jewel]

eeeee

[placid silo]

This context is used for end of round effects.

if context.end_of_round and context.cardarea == G.jokers then
{
    cardarea = G.jokers, -- G.hand, (G.deck and G.discard optionally enabled)
    end_of_round = true,
    game_over = game_over -- true or false
}

This context is used for effects on cards from jokers at the end of the round.

if context.end_of_round and context.individual then
{
    cardarea = G.hand, -- (G.deck and G.discard optionally enabled)
    end_of_round = true,
    individual = true,
    other_card = card
}```

[hybrid shadow]

actually it would be interesting to have a boss blind that reverses the direction in which the played hand is scored...

[placid silo]

not sure if that's what you need, but yeah.

[wind steppe]

photochad counter by sheer muscle memory

[hard mica]

im trying to make a seal that has a random seal effect every round so yeah that might be what i need

[hybrid shadow]

different boss blind that debuffs the first face card in played hand

[placid silo]

awesome, good luck! :D

[wind steppe]

roffle is ruined

[gusty iron]

how would i spawn in a negative copy of a joker/consumable with the key?

[wind steppe]

obviously it's called The Election

[hybrid shadow]

the RTGame ruiner: boss blind that disables all card held in hand effects

[scarlet storm]

boss blind where you CANT go 20 dollars into debt EVEN IF YOU HAVE credit card . yeah this would be a run killer 😈

[wind steppe]

debuffed in the credit card

[hybrid shadow]

boss blind where if you're in debt you instantly game over

[gusty iron]

i made that a stake!!

[hybrid shadow]

The Landlord

[wind steppe]

this is JUST a credit card counter and an anti-rental thing

[gusty iron]

well

[scarlet storm]

boss blind that randomly gives negative mult between 10 and 230

[gusty iron]

kinda

i made it so that if you go under 10 dollars for 3 rounds

your run just ends

[hybrid shadow]

specifically misprint counter? glorious

[modern kindle]

that would ruin some of my cards

theres the credit card, gold card, platinum card, and black card i have for debt increases, and then a debt collector card that gives mult for every 5 bucks below 0 you are

[scarlet storm]

truly

[wind steppe]

The Lack of Printing Errors

[hybrid shadow]

The Laser Printer

[wind steppe]

wait

[scarlet storm]

it even uses the same pseudo seed so if misprint gives +23 the blind gives -230

[wind steppe]

boss blind that just debuffs chicot

[scarlet storm]

LMAO

[wind steppe]

and nothing else

[scarlet storm]

chicot paradox

[hybrid shadow]

they spend the entire time just debuffing each other

[iron orchid]

hey peeps need some help with slay the jokers

been working with the dev on it and were stuck, trying to get it running correctly on linux

[gusty iron]

bump?

[iron orchid]

we have narrowed it down to getting the auto updater python script to run and send info to his servers

[hybrid shadow]

why would you need to run it on linux? balatro is already a windows game

[iron orchid]

[[patches]]

[scarlet storm]

boss blind that gives -25 chips per stone card in deck ❤️

[hybrid shadow]

and it works with Proton on Steam

[hard mica]

wtf? i dont see whats wrong?

[iron orchid]

we need to get wine(proton on steaam) to execute the python script

[wind steppe]

SMODS.createcard({key = 'namespace_key', edition = e_negative})

[placid silo]

I think Chicot specifically checks if it's a boss blind, but that means if you make a blind effect NOT a boss blind, you could disable chicot there :3

[iron orchid]

but cant quite sort out what to tell it to do

[wind steppe]

big blind that debuffs chicot

[placid silo]

yes

[hybrid shadow]

big blind that makes chicot perishable

[placid silo]

YES

[wind steppe]

the plant in 6 antes

[hard mica]

can anyone help me? idk why this crashes my game lmao

[wind steppe]

do you have a 1x atlas and a 2x atlas?

[hard mica]

yeah

[hybrid shadow]

this always made me wonder why there isnt a The Metal boss blind that debuffs number cards

[wind steppe]

and The Amateur that debuffs aces

[placid silo]

it could be an issue with the path of the Atlas, if its in a subfolder, etc

[wind steppe]

or just gives -20 chips and -4 mult

[hybrid shadow]

that would also counter Scholar lmfao

[iron orchid]

anyways, ping me if you know how to trick wine into running a python script so we can get stj working for linux players too

[gusty iron]

"attempt to call field createcard"

[slow brook]

how do i store joker descriptions in the localization files instead of inside loc_txt

[wind steppe]

might need something like set = 'Joker' or set = 'Spectral'

[hybrid shadow]

perkeo counter is just a boss blind that destroys all negative consumables when hand played

[gusty iron]

the thing is, it can go either way

[wind steppe]

observatory naneinf is ruined

[mystic river]

add "dump_loc": true to your .json, then delete everything in dump.lua that isn't from your mod

[red flower]

SMODS.add_card({key = 'j_modprefix_key', edition = "e_negative"})

[wind steppe]

do two separate createcards depending on then

[placid silo]

make a joker that scores the discarded hand instead of the played hand :3

[gusty iron]

im making a lua card pack

im working on local

[mystic river]

(helps to disable as many non-your mods as possible first)

[gusty iron]

you can spawn any joker, or any consumable you want

[hybrid shadow]

The Trash - destroys all discarded cards

[wind steppe]

burnt synergy?

[placid silo]

oh no D:

[wind steppe]

not my hit the road

better version: The Censorship - destroys discarded Jacks without triggering discard effects

[hybrid shadow]

The Meat - -100 chips -20 mult, +5 chips +4 mult each hand played

[wind steppe]

calling popcorn meat is a bit of a stretch

[gusty iron]

BOSS RUSH - Phase Blind (every 12 antes)
Fight all vanilla boss blinds in a row. Your hands replenish after each victory.

goodluck.

[hybrid shadow]

im not calling popcorn meat, im saying the opposite of ice cream and popcorn would be meat

[wind steppe]

true

also egg

[placid silo]

well, technically it wouldn't be meat, but like.. bamboo?

[pulsar furnace]

can anyone help me, im new to modding,
how does :set_ability() work?

[gusty iron]

how would i check if the player entered in a valid joker key?

[hybrid shadow]

The Hen - reduces sell price of all jokers by $3 for each played hand

[wind steppe]

more of a giftcard counter (if you have 3 of them)

[red flower]

card:set_ability("m_lucky") changes a card into a lucky card for example

[hybrid shadow]

and temperance counter lmao

[wind steppe]

true

death counter: cannot rearrange cards

[hybrid shadow]

The Job: cannot rearrange cards

[hybrid shadow]

(im calling it The Job bc its what most Balatro players fear)

[placid silo]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.before and context.main_eval and not context.blueprint then
            local faces = 0
            for _, scored_card in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
                if scored_card:is_face() then
                    faces = faces + 1
                    scored_card:set_ability('m_gold', nil, true)```
here is the calculate function for the Midas Mask joker

[wind steppe]

Strength counter: The Weakness - Reduce rank of all played cards by 1

[gusty iron]

more explination:
i have a string which the player enters, i was wondering how i would check if this was a valid joker key

[placid silo]

if you use it on an Ace would it become a King?

[hybrid shadow]

me playing all my Kings to make more queens for Shoot the Moon:

[red flower]

if G.P_CENTERS[key] then?

[wind steppe]

can't have that

[pulsar furnace]

how do i use it with modded enhancements

[wind steppe]

boss blind that debuffs queens

is it in bad taste to call it The Sexism

[hybrid shadow]

boss blind where queens held in hand give -13 mult

[hybrid shadow]

The Patriarch

[wind steppe]

then we can make a matching baron counter with The Matriarch

or just The Guillotine

[hybrid shadow]

HA

[red flower]

change the key for "m_[mod prefix]_[key]"

[pulsar furnace]

ohhh ty

[placid silo]

oop someone beat me to it ty

[wind steppe]

what would you call the jack debuffing blind

[placid silo]

Jill

Or "Up The Hill"

[hybrid shadow]

The Pactolus: Removes gold from all played cards

[wind steppe]

2 in 1 counter

maybe 3 in 1 if its before Vampire

[placid silo]

jokes on you, I have pareidolia and midas mask :3

[gusty iron]

how would i format the negative edition in my joker description

[wind steppe]

The Blind - No cards count as face cards

[hybrid shadow]

its the exact counter to midas mask, thats why it removes gold

[lofty sand]

{C:dark_edition}

[hybrid shadow]

The Blank - does nothing...?

[placid silo]

I have a joker that forces the joker on the right to trigger after all other events :3

[lofty sand]

anyone know how I could check for sealed cards in smth like context.discard?

[wind steppe]

also the loyalty card counter would similarly be awful

[pulsar furnace]

how to i make that a card doesnt score

[wind steppe]

x0.25 mult every 6 hands played

[gusty iron]

The Void - Destroy every non-unique card played

[wind steppe]

wait actually hold on

showman counter

debuffs duplicate jokers

[gusty iron]

this is DNA counter

[hybrid shadow]

debuffs jokers if multiple exist

[gusty iron]

oh also

[wind steppe]

call it The Boredom

[gusty iron]

im turning all of the finisher/showdown blinds into stakes

so have fun with that!

[wind steppe]

me when i have to score 900 points on small blind ante 1

with a force selected card

[gusty iron]

Violet vessel will be the last one

[hybrid shadow]

oh this is also checkered deck counter

[placid silo]

if card.ability.extra.name ~= 'seal_name' then```
Maybe something like this, I haven't touched seals before so i'm not 100%

[wind steppe]

how would you counter abandoned deck though

[gusty iron]

itll go:

Verdant Stake
Crimson Stake
Cerrulean Stake
Amber Stake
Violet Stake

[gusty iron]

The Face - Only play face cards

[lofty sand]

i'll give it a shot

[hybrid shadow]

this is just the boss blind that disables all number cards

[wind steppe]

true

red deck and blue deck already have a counter

how do we counter yellow deck?

[lofty sand]

start $10 in debt

[hybrid shadow]

immolate counter - adds 5 random cards, -20 dollars

[placid silo]

yellow deck just gives you $10 so like... multiply your current money by -1?

[wind steppe]

credit card makes it huge

can't have that

[gusty iron]

also someone rate this (the card is wip)

[placid silo]

only $20 but it should be counterable :3

[tall jewel]

this took way too long to make.. until i tried copying the way i did it for the doujinshi author joker...

[wind steppe]

The Shopkeep - Sorry Jimbo, I don't give credit

[tall jewel]

anyways im gonna make a library for this

[hard mica]

does anyone know how i can copy other seals effects?

[wind steppe]

just debuffs Credit Card

[tall jewel]

blind tooltips

[placid silo]

rated 10/10

[gusty iron]

THANK YOU!!

[pulsar furnace]

how do i make that a card doesnt score?

[placid silo]

lemme check the documentation rq

[hard mica]

alrighty

was gonna copy the code from vanilla remade buti thought there might be an easier way of doing it

[wind steppe]

seems a little unbalanced

it's like pointer if it was slightly different

[gentle rain]

arent tooltips like that a thing baked into steamodded

[gusty iron]

hi chat

i got them all

[wind steppe]

the council

[tall jewel]

uh

yes

but also

[gusty iron]

my main issue is how ill do jokers with underscores

[gentle rain]

you could reference how splash makes cards count in scoring and like, reverse it?

[tall jewel]

this is for the deck, and the sidebar tooltip doesn't work

so I needed to copy how the vanilla decks did hovers

ended up just adding tl keys stuff to P_CENTERS

[pulsar furnace]

uhh, no like debuffed but without adding the effect

[placid silo]

I'd say just copy the code for now, if there's an easier way then I'll see if I can figure it out

[hard mica]

alrighty thank you

[tall jewel]

(yes I tried "{T:bl_head}" and it didnt work)

[gentle rain]

im not following

[pulsar furnace]

nvm

[wind steppe]

how do stickers actually work?

mine does nothing rn and it's supposed to give +1 joker slot

SMODS.Sticker{
    key = 'negativesticker',
    sets = {Joker = true},
    rate = 0,
    atlas = 'Stickers',
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    should_apply = false,
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Negative Sticker',
        text = {
            '{C:dark_edition}+1{} Joker Slot'
        },
        label = 'Negative Sticker'
    },
    badge_colour = G.C.DARK_EDITION,
    config = { extra = { card_limit = 1 } },
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.card_added and context.card_area == G.jokers then
            G.jokers.config.card_limit = G.jokers.config.card_limit + self.config.extra.card_limit
        end
    end
}

[hybrid shadow]

tbh i have no clue how to get them to work, which isnt good because i have an entire mechanic based around stickers

[wind steppe]

im not convinced that anybody actually knows how they work but still i try

[hybrid shadow]

yeah i dont think anybody actually knows how they work

[sleek siren]

Is there a way that I could make a enhancement that makes the chip values and bonus chip values not score?

[wind steppe]

make it give negative chips?

[sleek siren]

Maybe... although I don't want it to show up on the scoring screen

[lofty sand]

debuff?

[hybrid shadow]

to replace the base chip value you can just do replace_base_card = true,

[hard mica]

im not sure if what im doing is good , trying to mkae it so this seal copies other seals effects but idk if im doing it the right way

[sleek siren]

Oh!!! Ok! ^^

[sleek siren]

Where would I place that? and may I see an example?

[hybrid shadow]

idk how youd remove the extra chips (i assume you mean extra chips added by hiker since youre overriding bonus cards anyway with it being an enhancement)

[gusty iron]

how would i change rarity chances?

[wheat pulsar]

hi, one question, how can i put this messages in my customs jokers?

[gusty iron]

(as in, how do i make rare and uncommon jokers 4x rarer)

[hybrid shadow]

this is my enhancement which uses the replace base card
