SMODS.find_card?

[long sun]

does that return how many there are?

[daring fern]

It's returns a table of each joker so #SMODS.find_card("j_modprefix_key") would.

[long sun]

ah schweet :D thanks!

[harsh sonnet]

ok so im still just a few days into lua coding on balala and there seems to be an issue with this part of my code
maybe probably the way im trying to check if .ppay exists under G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability and if not to create it but i got no idea how to fix that (if that even is the problem)

G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({func = function()

    if G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability.ppay == nil then
        G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability.ppay = G.jokers.highlighted[1].base_cost
    else
        G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability.ppay = G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability.ppay * card.ability.extra.rate
    end

    local mai = SMODS.shallow_copy(G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability)
        if G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability.ppay == nil then
            G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability.ppay = G.jokers.highlighted[1].base_cost
        else
            G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability.ppay = G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability.ppay * card.ability.extra.rate
        end
        mai["mult"] = mai["mult"] * card.ability.extra.nlrg
        G.jokers.highlighted[1].ability = mai


return true end}))

[daring fern]

local oldcalcseal = Card.calculate_seal
function Card:calculate_seal(context)
    if not self.ability.set then
        print(self)
    end
    return oldcalcseal(self, context)
end
```?

[wise walrus]

Bumping this before I’m able to work on it today. Still not sure why one hand check for ‘Wicked’ cards repeats code 4 times

[red flower]

calculate is called a bunch of times during a game, you need a context check

[harsh sonnet]

pls halp guys

[red flower]

what's the card supposed to do?

[timid star]

how do i prevent the custom suit from being included in the default deck

[harsh sonnet]

its a partner™ that when clicked doubles(.nlrg) a jokers values (currently only Jokers "Mult")
for the cost of it's base_cost
then it should add ppay to the jokers .ability which is the same as base_cost
if ppay already exists there it should be multiplied by .rate

[red flower]

and what's the issue with the code exactly?

does it not work or is it something else

thank you something

[harsh sonnet]

well if i actually click on the partner i

[red flower]

I'm guessing this is from shallow_copy? maybe the ability table is nil

but idk much about partners havent made one yet

[harsh sonnet]

that worked before i added the ppay part

[wise walrus]

Ah that would explain it then. In that case, does enhancements only support calculate function? Either way I’ll probably add a check for the drawing hand context or something similar

[red flower]

for what you want calculate with context.hand_drawn probably works

[red flower]

hmm idk, from what i see the issue is that ability is nil in shallow_copy

[misty shoal]

why does it crash when refering to context.blind?

[harsh sonnet]

wait i figured something out
now i have a different problem
but hey
im not crashing anymore

[unborn bay]

im pretty sure context.blind doesn't exist lmao

reference G.GAME.blind

[misty shoal]

chicot lied to me?..

[unborn bay]

most likely only exists during context.setting_blind

[misty shoal]

ah

[misty shoal]

this works thanks

[chrome widget]

Yep, there's only certain things in the context table at certain times

Though if you want to refer to the current blind you can also refer to G.GAME.blind

[long sun]

hmm, this code isn't working

[daring fern]

add_prog?

[long sun]

it's supposed to call add/remove_prog for all zodiacs that have them, when it's added or removed

relevant for the two that add discards / hands

[daring fern]

You are putting the functions in the center not in card.ability

[long sun]

ah oops

i'm guessing it should be card.center.add_prog then?

[daring fern]

No, card.config.center.add_prog

[long sun]

ah ^^!

thanks!!

[bleak crane]

how do i add the tool tip next to my joker description, like how this has the description for stone cards?

[red flower]

info_queue

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Localization#loc_vars

[bleak crane]

woohoo

[frigid blaze]

Can you tell me in which program is the best to make drawings for Jokers?

[chrome widget]

Aesprite!!

[frigid blaze]

Are there any rules for drawing them? 😀

Also wanted to know what words are usually highlighted in the description of the joker, everyone has a different one, there is not some common meaning?

[chrome widget]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1250386587691388989

Here's a big style guide reference

[slow brook]

how can i activate a card twice? (just so i can display messages twice)

[chrome widget]

Also, for joker descriptions, you'll just want to look at what Vanilla does consistently

It's not universally consistent, but just find a vanilla joker that has a close enough effect and use that as a reference

[manic rune]

if you want to display messages more than once, use SMODS.calculate_effect({message = "idk"}, card)

[daring fern]

Or you could do:```lua
return {
message = "message",
extra = {
message = "secondmessage",
}
}

[manic rune]

true

[daring fern]

This would not go before everything.

Unlike SMODS.calculate_effect

[spice wadi]

i forgot that this function existed, you mightve just saved one of my jokers from causing immense lag ty 🙏

Gotta love the question mark react 💀
I just meant I remembered I can have custom contexts using that which might make my joker with multiple repeating effects and messages much more efficient

[harsh sonnet]

what?

[manic rune]

G.jokers.highlighted[1] might not even exist

you want nil checks

[harsh sonnet]

oh

[manic rune]

i dont want to know what you did, but np 😭

[spice wadi]

You're going to know.
It returns one massive nested table, about 2 levels for each trigger :)

[manic rune]

sob

[red flower]

calculate_effect would do nothing different in that case

it literally does the same thing as returning

[spice wadi]

I'm fully aware

But I'm gonna use that (or I remembered there's an actual method for retriggering jokers) to just retrigger the joker instead

[manic rune]

theres indeed an actual method to retrigger jokers

[spice wadi]

Yeah I forgot about that

I'm not sure if a custom context would be better or not
Just cos idk how retriggering interacts with final_scoring_step

[subtle urchin]

Hi! just arrived cuz im having problems intalling the bunko mod, i followed a tutorial about installing lovely and steammodded, opened the game via steam and it worked, but after adding the latest bunko version the game crashes with: Oops! The game crashed:
Syntax error: card.lua:5368: 'end' expected (to close 'function' at line 828) near '<eof>' and i can´t find anything about it in past messages, anyone knows how to fix? thanks!

or do you need the rest of the message

just tested opening without the mod and that does work

[daring fern]

Get this version: https://github.com/jumbocarrot0/Bunco

[subtle urchin]

yeah it now works! thanks!!

the other version i got was the one in the description of its trailer btw if it needs report or sth

[harsh sonnet]

so this ive learned is illegal (cuz im crashing)
now my question is: how else am i supposed to do it

[red flower]

it's because it switched developers

[subtle urchin]

ohhh okay, thanks!

[red flower]

you need to do it in a function

and modify card.ability

[harsh sonnet]

god dammit

i have no idea how to tho 😭

[red flower]

i mean if you copy that if condition to calculate and modify card.ability.extra.nlrg_cost it should work

[harsh sonnet]

no i uh
i have no idea how to create new functions in lua

[red flower]

function name(args)
end

but I'm saying that you use the card's calculate function

[placid star]

put the if to the end in smth like

      ......
end```
like N' said

[misty gorge]

Tried making my joker work, now it just does nothing if my last hand is like 60

[harsh sonnet]

ima try
ill be back for the next crash

[slow brook]

how do i localize the text of an undiscovered custom consumable

[daring fern]

I'm pretty sure you could just do G.GAME.chips instead of multiplying hand_chips and mult together.

[misty gorge]

Doesn't G.GAME.chips return the round score? I want the hand score

[daring fern]

The hand score doesn't exist at the end of round.

[misty gorge]

Awh

Well in that case I'll figure out some other use for this card

[maiden phoenix]

You can save it in a calculate function perhaps

Like during context.end_of_round

[misty gorge]

Oh maybe yea

[red flower]

you would save it at final_scoring_step and then use that

[slow brook]

how do i localize the name, collection, and undiscovered description of a consumable type

[maiden phoenix]

loc_txt = {
        name = 'Name',
        collection = 'Thing Cards',
        undiscovered = {
            name = 'Not Discovered',
            text = {
                "Purchase or use",
                "this card in an",
                "unseeded run to",
                "learn what it does"
            },
        },
    },

[slow brook]

I don't want it in loc_txt I want it in the localization files

[placid star]

whats the thingy to find the mod prefix of a card?

[daring fern]

card.config.center.original_mod.prefix?

[misty gorge]

Still does nothing, do I need to place final_scoring_step in the dollar function?

[daring fern]

It's local so it doesn't persist.

[maiden phoenix]

If you put it in a local it will remain in calculate, put it in a card.ability.extra variable

card.ability.extra.final_hand_score = ...

So you can reference it in calc_dollar_bonus if it exists

[misty gorge]

Ah, okie

[hard needle]

how can i use SMODS.change_base to only change the rank of a card?

[hard needle]

oke

[slow brook]

soo how can i do that

[red flower]

i would recommend looking at a mod that adds new consumabletypes like cryptid

[misty gorge]

Like number 1 or 2?

[maiden phoenix]

Remove the local

[slow brook]

it's always cryptid

[misty gorge]

Still seems to do nothing for some reason, maybe it's my calculation idk but I do know it should trigger when my final hand scores a 60 (since 300/2 is 150)

[maiden phoenix]

I wonder if G.GAME.blind.chips exists in calc_dollar

[misty gorge]

Ig I can try and maybe put the blind chips in a extra variable

Wait

[harsh sonnet]

i cant do this anymore 🥀
the marked part is the abomination i just created
everything else worked really well without it

[misty gorge]

I'm fucking stupid

I forgot it has to be my last hand

Sorry for wasting ur time, I'll go test it quickly

[red flower]

im not going to read the code because its too complicated lol
but the problem is that you have an extra end at the very bottom

[maiden phoenix]

Do you have the lua extension installed?

[harsh sonnet]

that extra end is bc of

[harsh sonnet]

what do u mean too complicated 😭
ur the expert not meeee

[misty gorge]

Yep it does work, thanks and sorry for wasting time

[harsh sonnet]

i dont 🥀

[red flower]

oh ok the problem is that youre missing a }

[harsh sonnet]

i hate this bs

thank u once again

[maiden phoenix]

If you install it normally it should highlight where the error is

[red flower]

get the sumneko one

[spice wadi]

I'd also look into setting up your workspace folders to include Steammodded and the balatro source code

[misty gorge]

true

there's a LOT of useful stuff there

[harsh sonnet]

i aint that smart guys

i only code as a side hobby
aka bc im too addicted to balatro

[spice wadi]

I also am not smart but it's surprisingly easy to set up

And I'd recommend it even more if you're doing this as a side thing

[daring fern]

No, it should be the lovely dump not the source code.

[slow brook]

wow i love when the game has consistend code! how could I not thought that the key has to be lowercase but only in this exact scenario

[harsh sonnet]

time to look for a tut on how to set up (now that im (hopefully) almost done)
also just to clarify
were still talking vs code right?
or have i been living IN a rock

[maiden phoenix]

fun

[slow brook]

probably yeah

[maiden phoenix]

Yes

[slow brook]

dw i got no idea how to do that aswell (90% of times i got no idea what people are even saying to me)

[harsh sonnet]

so real

[maiden phoenix]

You must glibolask with the trufunc and add the susball

Shrimple as that

[misty gorge]

i should set up that stuff too, I hate not having like tooltips and stuff show up for me in vscode

[slow brook]

if you figure out how to include the lovely dump in the workspace tell me how cuz i dont even know whats a dump (in this case of course)

[harsh sonnet]

i cant find no sumneko on vs code 💔

[harsh sonnet]

bro i dont either

[red flower]

it's the folder in your mods folder called lovely/dump

[maiden phoenix]

What if you try from there? https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=sumneko.lua

[red flower]

i just have my entire mod folder open

[harsh sonnet]

ts is all my dumbass can see

[red flower]

how

[slow brook]

it's the first one that pops up for me

[maiden phoenix]

usually it might be due to outdated vscode methink

Try the website link still

[harsh sonnet]

well "trying" i am

[slow brook]

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=sumneko.lua

[harsh sonnet]

do i even have the right vs code atp

[red flower]

do you have vscode or visual studio

[slow brook]

you got the blue one or the purple one

[harsh sonnet]

purpul

[slow brook]

no wonder then

[red flower]

https://vscodium.com/

[hard mica]

welp

[slow brook]

that's not vscode

[daring fern]

So it's running, thenself.config.extra.SealType must be nil?

[spice wadi]

Oh yeah right, I should probably do that too

[hard mica]

can i try setting the self.config.extra.SealType to one of the sealtypes in self.config.extra.SealTypes?

[daring fern]

Yes.

Also Blue and Gold wouldn't work with this method.

[hard mica]

whys that

[daring fern]

Because they are hard coded.

[harsh sonnet]

holy shit i did it i think

everything is so colorful

[slow brook]

half of stuff still isn't there like or any SMODS and G. stuff and that's like 80% of what i use

[slow brook]

lmao

[hard mica]

i set the seal type to be red but it shows nil

[hard mica]

well i want the seal to work with blue and gold

[slow brook]

does any joker in vanilla even do something like that?

[harsh sonnet]

its beautiful
now how tf do i zoom

[long sun]

hi! how would i add a modded consumable type to the shop pool, if a particular deck is selected?

(similar to Ghost Deck)

[wheat jewel]

How do i check if a specific type of spectral card is used

[daring fern]

What does your loc_vars look like?

[wheat jewel]

since black hole isn't a planet card

[misty gorge]

Oh, neat

[daring fern]

What does the description look like?

[daring fern]

self.config.SealTypes.Red doesn't exist.

Just set it to "Red" for now.

[hard mica]

yes it does

[daring fern]

No, it doesn't?

[hard mica]

[daring fern]

If you did Red = 'Red' in the table then yes it would exist.

But currently it doesn't.

[wheat jewel]

how do i specifically check for the black hole spectral card in the consumable section

[daring fern]

if context.consumeable.config.center.key == "c_black_hole"?

[wheat jewel]

ty

let me try that

I got an error

Oh wait nvm

Figured out i removed a lot of the if statement

[long sun]

(bump)

[daring fern]

Maybe change the weight?

[hard mica]

maybe thats why it didnt work the first time ngl

when i was doing that long code

[long sun]

OH i see

ya

cheers ^^

shop_rate

[wheat jewel]

IT WORKS!!!! Ty 🫡

[hard mica]

now the seal appears

[daring fern]

Yes, but this is probably the best way because you will only have to do Gold and Blue manually.

[broken rivet]

somehow the check at the bottom here is always hitting the leftmost instance of the joker, not the specific instance being calculated

[daring fern]

Does it work?

[hard mica]

i guess

[hard mica]

when it socres

[long sun]

one more question :>

how does shop_rate work? what would a shop_rate of 1 mean?

what are the vanilla shop_rates?

[daring fern]

Add this after you define temp_card: ```lua
temp_card.juice_up = function(self, scale, rot_amount)
return card:juice_up(scale, rot_amount)
end

[broken rivet]

does anyone have suggestions on how to fix this?

[daring fern]

context.forcetrigger doesn't do anything by itself if you don't tell it to do anything.

[broken rivet]

that's for cryptid compat, it's not relevant here

[daring fern]

What variable are you setting this on?

[broken rivet]

wdym

also context.forcetrigger is a context added by the cryptid mod

that line does nothing

[broken rivet]

the line that's misbehaving is if G.jokers.cards[i] == card then
this seems to return true for any instance of the joker

[daring fern]

I'm aware.

[broken rivet]

ah

yeah i just wanted it to do nothing in that context

[daring fern]

What is that line in the lovely dump?

[broken rivet]

without having to wrap everything in a big if statement

[broken rivet]

i'm unsure what you mean by "this" here though

[hard mica]

the again text is a little bit far

[daring fern]

I have some code to fix most of these issues if you would like.

[hard mica]

yeah i would like

[daring fern]

Here you would create the fake card: https://github.com/Somethingcom515/SealsOnJokers/blob/allinone/main.lua#L2670

Here you would make it show the messages show in the right place: https://github.com/Somethingcom515/SealsOnJokers/blob/allinone/main.lua#L2963

Also with this method you could also get it to copy modded seals, but there would be possible crashes.

[hard mica]

where would i use these functions?

[harsh sonnet]

ok hey ive done it almost
everything pretty much works
my only issue:
how do i update this passage every time i highlight a joker instead of when i press on the partner

[daring fern]

You would replace temp_card = ... with functionname(card, "c_base", "add_to_deck") I think.

[hard mica]

like this?

[daring fern]

No, I meant you would put that in the calculate of your seal.

[hard mica]

that code is in calculate

[daring fern]

Remove temp_card.juice_up = function

[hard mica]

is it good?

[undone stirrup]

I need some help, I have steammoded and lovely installed, and I have the balatro multiplayer installed, but when I try to add bunco I get an error. (if im in the wrong chat lmk)

[daring fern]

https://github.com/jumbocarrot0/Bunco

[undone stirrup]

i tried adding it to the mods folder, but I get this error screen

[daring fern]

No, it would be something like ```lua
local temp_card = create_fake_joker(card, "c_base", "add_to_deck")
temp_card.seal = self.config.extra.SealType
local usedfunction = Card.calculate_seal
return usedfunction(temp_card, context)

[daring fern]

Did you remove the previous one?

[undone stirrup]

previous what?

[hard mica]

i did and the card does nothing now

[undone stirrup]

theres the mods folder

[daring fern]

You need to get this one instead: https://github.com/jumbocarrot0/Bunco

[daring fern]

Did you define the function correctly?

[maiden phoenix]

Look up multiboxes in SMODS code

JoyousSpring makes use of this if you need a ref

[hard mica]

yep

[daring fern]

It's because self.config.extra.SealType is nil.

[hard mica]

i tried it when it wasnt nil and it was showing Red

[daring fern]

Also you need to do temp_card.seal = self.config.extra.SealType

[hard mica]

and it does nothing

[undone stirrup]

many thanks.

[hard mica]

now it works but the text is still very far away lmao

[daring fern]

Did you look at the second link I sent?

[slow brook]

how do i check if a joker is from my mod

[daring fern]

if card.config.center.original_mod and card.config.center.original_mod.id == "yourmodid"

[hard mica]

how do i use it tho , i got it

[daring fern]

You just put it somewhere in your code but outside of everything.

[hard mica]

i did

it does nothing

[manic rune]

remove the local

[daring fern]

Also remove change_sprite and the event

[marsh turtle]

is there a way to grab specific types of jokers to be reactivated? Example being retriggering any joker that gives chips on the final hand of the round

[daring fern]

You maybe could but you probably couldn't.

[red flower]

I never worked with joker retriggers so i might be wrong but I think you can check something like context.other_context and context.other_return to check what joker you're about to retrigger

[slow brook]

why does this crash when i click on a vanilla joker? shouldn't it just return false?

[maiden phoenix]

Context doesn't exist anywhere else

[slow brook]

what?

[maiden phoenix]

This context is not defined

[manic rune]

calculate has context in it:

calculate = function(self,card, context <---)

can_use doesnt provide it

[slow brook]

yeah but that's inside the first if, and it shouldn't even consider that one if card.config.center.original_mod == false

and if its from a mod i made sure that every joker provides the context in can_use_plantfood

[red flower]

whats the crash log

[slow brook]

what's card in this context, the consumable or the joker i select?

[red flower]

the consumable

[slow brook]

so what's the joker i select

[red flower]

G.jokers.highlighted[1]

[slow brook]

oh so i should change card.config.center.original_mod to G.jokers.highlighted[1].config.center.original_mod? Cuz i want to check if the joker i select is from a mod

[red flower]

yeah

you should also check if it exists first

[slow brook]

if what exists?

#G.jokers.highlighted > 0 ?

[red flower]

that works yeah

[harsh sonnet]

ima reply to myself cuz my stupidity got buried by other issues

[red flower]

you would probably need to make your custom context by hooking Card:highlight

[harsh sonnet]

could u explain that to me like im 5? qwq

[red flower]

no

[hard mica]

i did but the seals arent randomized after every round idk why tho

[harsh sonnet]

ok 🥀

[red flower]

hooking: https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/129557-tutorial-function-hooking-and-you/

to create a custom context you do SMODS.calculate_context{joker_clicked = true} and then use context.joker_clicked in calculate

[harsh sonnet]

thank u <3

[daring fern]

Try doing ```lua
local seals = {}
for k, v in pairs(G.P_SEALS) do
table.insert(seals, k)
end

[placid star]

where are the poker hands stored?

[daring fern]

G.GAME.hands

[harsh sonnet]

yea no i dont understand a word

[placid star]

should this work to upgrade spare trousers with 4oak aswell? i tested and its not working

[daring fern]

Is this a take_ownership?

[daring fern]

Is this for spare trousers specifically or is it any joker that asks for two pair?

[placid star]

spare trousers specficially

but could i change 4oak to inherantly include two pair in checks for that kinda stuff?

[slow brook]

can i check the order of ranks of cards played from left to right?

[daring fern]

It would probably best to take ownership of two pair to not check for different ranks.

[high sinew]

tryna figure out the easiest way to check if a playing card has an edition when played what if can I use to do it? is set_edition gonna work just wanted to ask before doing anything

it upgrades cards to next edition foil --> holo --> neg --> poly

idk if that will work

[daring fern]

Try looking at rework

[high sinew]

ok bet yea i forgot about that tag

[placid star]

are there any examples of taking ownership of a hand to do smth like this?

[high sinew]

they do in order of editions personally it makes more sense to have negative before poly for playing cards is there a way to make a custom one?

[daring fern]

You would check if it is holographic and change it to negative instead.

[red flower]

afaik context.full_hand has all the cards in order from left to right

[high sinew]

ok bet ill just make one with if c_card.edition ~= ' ' thanks!

[slow brook]

nice, maybe stupid, but i want a joker to do something when cards played are in ascending order left to right (yes i know you can just move them before playing but i thought it would be cool)

[placid star]

would i use this in my take_ownership? idk what else i could be using

[daring fern]

No, you would use SMODS.PokerHand.

[primal terrace]

Sorry to interrupt

Trying to implement a deck that changes all 52 cards to be a random chosen card, but the pseudorandom always chooses the same card regardless of seed

How would I change it so that it is different every run?

[placid star]

yeah but like what var is used to determine what other hands two pair is apart of?

[daring fern]

No, I meant you would change Two Pair to just check if there a 2 pairs and not of different ranks?

[placid star]

ah

[slow brook]

so that context is a table?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[placid star]

what would be the best way to change this, its in SMODS/game_objects

[broken rivet]

really wish there was a way to detect the most recent card in a blueprint chain

[digital niche]

how do i check if a joker is from some set? like how cryptid makes "Sweet jokers"? i already have something defined for the jokers i want

[misty gorge]

How do I make it so that only playing Hearts and Clubs triggers the joker, tried doing it like this but it keeps triggering when for example spades and hearts are played (ig because it detects that hearts is there)

[digital niche]

also can i check if something is from X mod or vanilla?

[daring fern]

You mean Candy Jokers? That is a rarity.

[digital niche]

ooooh, tyty

[daring fern]

if card.config.center.original_mod and card.config.center.original_mod.id == "modid" and if not card.config.center.original_mod

[digital niche]

tyty!

[minor magnet]

does context.blueprint_card not work with juice_up?

   calculate = function(self, card, context)
      if context.starting_shop or context.reroll_shop then
        for k, v in pairs(G.shop_jokers.cards) do
          G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({trigger = "after", delay = 0.5, func = function()
          if v.cost - card.ability.extra.discount >= 0 then
            v.cost = v.cost - card.ability.extra.discount
            if context.blueprint_card then context.blueprint_card:juice_up() else card:juice_up() end            
            v:juice_up()
            play_sound("coin1", 1.2)
          elseif v.cost > 0 then
            v.cost = 0
            if context.blueprint_card then context.blueprint_card:juice_up() else card:juice_up() end
            v:juice_up()
            play_sound("coin1", 1.2)
          end
          return true end}))
        end
      end
    end

this is my code

[primal terrace]

lol

[digital niche]

would this work for consumable?

[daring fern]

You are checking if the consumable is from a specific mod?

[digital niche]

yeah

wait no actually

[minor magnet]

don't think so

[digital niche]

it checks if the highlighted things have an enhancement then if its from this mod

[hard mica]

tried that but doesnt work

[minor magnet]

try if string.sub(v.key, 1, 7) == 'c_mills' then

to check the mod

[digital niche]

it should check if the highlighted card have an enhancement from tat mod

[minor magnet]

wait im stupid

[digital niche]

not if the consumable is from the mod

[daring fern]

That's what card.config.center.original_mod is?

[minor magnet]

oh.. i might be stupid

</3

[hot granite]

there's a lot of functions

[minor magnet]

but ye should be fine then

[hot granite]

that's what everyone else is here for, to assist

[minor magnet]

you learn something new everyday

[digital niche]

ye i also thought but still isnt working

if it have 2 enhancements from that mod it still can be used

[misty gorge]

-# bump

[daring fern]

Why are you checking if the card is not spades or diamonds if you only want it to trigger on hearts and clubs?

[misty gorge]

It didn't work when I checked for if card is hearts or clubs so I thought the opposite might work

[slow brook]

why doesn't it work (i want to do one effect if cards in played hand are ascending and another if they are descending)

[daring fern]

Do you want it to return mult if all cards played are either hearts or clubs?

[hard mica]

help?

[misty gorge]

Or a mix of both, yea

[hard mica]

@daring fern doesnt seem to work how i want it to work , i might hardcode it and paste the code from the seals myself

[daring fern]

Try putting some print statements in there.

See what's going wrong.

[slow brook]

why does that print out attempt to compare two table values? I took only the [i] of it so it should be one singular value

[unborn bay]

full_hand is a table of tables

specifically cards

[slow brook]

aah so i have to take the rank of the card inside full_hand

[placid star]

is there a pool for suits?

[unborn bay]

SMODS.Suits

[slow brook]

so how do i check the rank?

[daring fern]

context.full_hand[i]:get_id()

[daring fern]

Try looking at Blackboard

[misty gorge]

Thanks

[broken rivet]

fuck it i'm posting this whole thing here because there's so many weird bugs
this is meant to be a left and right blueprint but it has so many weird things going on
like somehow a bunch of scaling effects are entirely disabled if a joker is anywhere to the right of this one
in a chain of 3 the third one triggers the last joker twice rather than both first and last once

i'm genuinely just lost

[daring fern]

You should be using SMODS.blueprint_effect

[broken rivet]

oh that's a thing?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[broken rivet]

huh

[daring fern]

Also you should use a function that does the extra sorting so you don't have to check if it exists.

[worthy stirrup]

Just to be sure, this is how I could get every card in the deck, right?

  calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.setting_blind then
      for c = 1, #G.playing_cards do
        local card = G.playing_cards[c]
        print(card)
      end
    end
  end

[daring fern]

Yes.

[daring fern]

Like this: https://github.com/Somethingcom515/SealsOnJokers/blob/allinone/main.lua#L2714

[broken rivet]

how is this used exactly?

[daring fern]

effects_table is just a table of all the returns.

[broken rivet]

also is this able to handle a joker returning nothing

[daring fern]

It will return nil

[unborn bay]

i love how this code is mine

[broken rivet]

also how is this used

[daring fern]

SMODS.blueprint_effect(copier, copied_card, context

[hard mica]

im really unsure why this error appears? the problem is with the purple and blue seals , i had the gold and red seal and they worked fine with eachother but once i added the blue and purple seal it keeps crashing when it wants to score any card

[worthy stirrup]

How could i destroy a card thats in the deck?

[daring fern]

card:start_dissolve()

[worthy stirrup]

and thats it?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[worthy stirrup]

thanks

[broken rivet]

do i have to use this as my return value

[red flower]

i love how this code is mine

i think it should be an smods utility actually i think a lot of people want to use nested returns

[daring fern]

It would be like this but instead of all jokers It's only the left and right ones.

[broken rivet]

ah

[hard mica]

anyone know the solution?

[worthy stirrup]

How could i have my boss score requirement change mid blind?

[daring fern]

Is it not the same problem? .Blue and .Red don't exist.

[daring fern]

Change G.GAME.blind.chips

[daring heron]

How would i change specifically the description and nothing else of the jokers?

[worthy stirrup]

thanks

[hard mica]

the problem is with blue and purple

[daring fern]

Overwrite the localization entry.

[flat sorrel]

do you need to change the description dynamically or just once at game launch

[daring heron]

How do i do that again? I forgor

[worthy stirrup]

hm, it seems to destroy the cards but not increase score requirement

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.setting_blind then
      for c = 1, #G.playing_cards do
        local card = G.playing_cards[c]
        if card:is_face() then
          card:start_dissolve()
          G.GAME.blind.chips = G.GAME.blind.chips * 1.1
        end
      end
    end
  end

[daring heron]

Using SMODS:Take.Ownership right?

Or something like that

[daring fern]

j_joker = {
    name = 'G',
    text={
        "G"
    }
},

[daring fern]

No?

[daring heron]

Wait mb

[slow brook]

how can a consumable delete a selected joker?

[daring heron]

But i dont want to edit the base localization files

[hard mica]

how tho?, i did it like the red and gold and it doesnt work, the red and gold seal works fine

[flat sorrel]

if you just add the localization entry in your own loc file it will override it, like a minecraft texture pack

[daring heron]

Oh ok

[flat sorrel]

if you're confused by something I said use your words like an adult

[hard mica]

i literally coped the code from the vanilla remade mod

[slow brook]

and how can i do that..?

[daring fern]

if #G.jokers.highlighted == 1 then
    G.jokers.highlighted[1]:start_dissolve()
end
```?

[hybrid shadow]

truth nuke

[slow brook]

and how can i check the selling price of a highlighted joker

[daring fern]

G.jokers.highlighted[1].sell_cost

[daring heron]

can i add the mod info into the en-us file or do i need to still have a metadata file

[daring fern]

You need the JSON.

[daring heron]

alright

what would i put as the main_file?

[daring fern]

What is the name of your main lua file?

[daring heron]

and where do i find the base descriptions of the jokers

[daring fern]

In the source code.

[hard mica]

@daring fern im using pseudorandom_element but it doesnt reroll the seal effect at the end of the round like it does it once and then never again

[slow brook]

in the source code ( card.lua )

[daring heron]

none, it's just adding flavor text to jokers, nothing else

so thatd be en-us.lua

[daring fern]

Then it would be nothing?

I don't know if you can just not have a main file.

You do need a main file.

[slow brook]

just make a main file and have it empty then

[daring heron]

what do i need to search for? j_joker doesnt exist

at least not in there

[worthy stirrup]

How do i debuff every suit?

[daring heron]

when i search for it

[slow brook]

are you asking about what joker do or what text they have

[daring fern]

No, it's in localization/en-us.lua

[slow brook]

then that is in en-us.lua

[daring heron]

oh mb

[slow brook]

mb i told you the wrong file

[hard mica]

why doesnt the seals randomize at the end of the round?

[turbid maple]

by a boss blind?

[worthy stirrup]

yea

[turbid maple]

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

see recalc_debuff

[daring fern]

if not SMODS.has_no_suit(card) then return true end

[worthy stirrup]

thank you

[hybrid shadow]

has anyone here made an enhancement deck that doesn't piggyback off of cryptid

[lofty sand]

anyone think this is underpowered? I thought it'd be pretty balanced but I'm noticing a lot of my friends playtesting my mod don't take it too often due to better in slot options

[hard mica]

anyone know how to fix this?

[iron plover]

how do you create a balatro deck without that one mod? is there a template?

also can you mod steam deck balatro

[daring fern]

Yes.

[sleek cliff]

representation

[iron plover]

is there a guide for that somewhere

[daring fern]

https://youtu.be/gvlML3XruJc ?

[hot granite]

it's underpowered by design of other cards existing that affect score in a more repeatable or controllable way. This isn't bad, but it doesn't take the edge off like you'd expect a pack of newports to do

[lofty sand]

lol

[hot granite]

lowering the blind requirement is underpowered because jokers exist that give you big numbers usually

[lofty sand]

it was meant to be a mr. bones esque pickup, or a throwaway pickup you snag like popcorn/ice cream or smth

[hot granite]

yeah that makes sense, those food items are early game scalers

so the newports technically can fulfill a similar role

if they showed up early and im struggling in the shop, yeah that pack of smokes will carry me

[hybrid shadow]

thats what im doing

[lofty sand]

you think it could benefit from halving the score req insead of just 0.75 or do you think it's fine where it is?

[hot granite]

you wanna make it more alluring, make it half or 0.66

you can also do like the scalers do

start at half and go up by 0.1 or whatever

[lofty sand]

oh that's not a bad idea actually

eventually it starts making the blind scaling worse lmao

never expires, just keeps getting worse lmao

[hot granite]

yep, it's meant to offset poor shops or low money making easier reqs

while the food items generally offset early game scoring but replace getting those nice setup jokers

[misty gorge]

Sooo I tried to base my joker off of blackboard and now it's doing nothing

Progress

[daring fern]

You need to do not (hearts or clubs)

[misty gorge]

Wait why did I write diamonds wtf

[hot granite]

brain fell out moment

[misty gorge]

Lemme change that

Still does nothing when I play a heart club pair

[daring fern]

Current code?

[daring fern]

I said you need to do if not (hearts or clubs).

[misty gorge]

I thought that was what if not scored_card:is_suit('Hearts') or not scored_card:is_suit('Clubs') then meant

Oh maybe I need to add brackets

[daring fern]

if not (scored_card:is_suit('Hearts') or scored_card:is_suit('Clubs')) then

[frosty rampart]

not (x or y) = (not x) and (not y)
shoutouts to minecraft redstone tutorials for ingraining de morgan's laws into the deepest recesses of my brain

[misty gorge]

Still does nothing :P

[daring fern]

It's because you're not returning anything your just doing Xmult = number

[misty gorge]

FUCK

God why do I keep making these mistakes

[daring heron]

no idea if i can fix this but the edited jokers dont appear in a collection tab in my mod

[misty gorge]

Wait what it still doesn't work

Well then idk anymore

[daring fern]

You can't, you have to take ownership of them for that.

[daring heron]

can i take ownership and then just change nothing?

[daring fern]

Maybe?

[misty gorge]

Guess I'll just try again tomorrow

[broken rivet]

well this did work

[broken rivet]

also made a quick pr on this containing modifications i made to it in my own mod, feel free to use those

[slow brook]

how do i make a joker give score when counting a card? like it stops and the joker shakes like even steven or odd todd

[daring fern]

context.individual?

[placid star]

small issue, i have a custom card area and i only have a use button, found out the issue is that the allignment of the sell button is behind the card and inaccessible, how can i make that not the case so that the button are alligned to the right of the consumeable like tarots

[misty shoal]

hilo, how can I make a boss blind disable negative jokers

[daring fern]

There is a boss blind from cryptid that does exactly that.

[misty shoal]

well I imagine there's a something in cryptid that does anything, so that makes sense

do you know which one

[misty shoal]

ok well cryptid has it's own mod-specific way of doing it

[placid star]

        if (card.area == G.jokers) and not G.GAME.blind.disabled and card.config.center.rarity == 'jjok_special' then
            return true
        end
        return false
    end,```
this is my code for disabling jokers of a specific rarity, so just replace `and card.config...` with `and card.edition ~= nil and card.edition.key == 'e_negative'`

[misty shoal]

am I missing a comma or parathesis somewhere it says expecting ] on line 32

[daring fern]

What line is that?

[primal robin]

Incorrect brackets for pos

[misty shoal]

oorps I cropped it out

that's gotta be it thanks

[hard mica]

anyone know how to fix this ?

[placid star]

what is line 1287

paste it

[turbid maple]

ship it

[placid star]

well what do you call it?

[turbid maple]

whats with you and question marking everything

[turbid maple]

i just wanted to reference balatro university

[lost plover]

Someone know how to mod balatro on mobile please

[wind steppe]

you cant afaik

[placid star]

no i mean a youkai that got ronned

[wind steppe]

steamodded is, as the name suggests, for steam

[lost plover]

😞

[wind steppe]

its not called iosmodded or androidmodded

[daring fern]

That's not why it was called that.

[turbid maple]

houjuu nue

[open forum]

Looking at SMODS.Sound in the wiki, why the discouragement of using .MP3?

[hard mica]

idk i cant even find the card.lua

[lost plover]

Can you emulate windows/linux

[placid star]

in lovely dump??

[wind steppe]

why was it called that then?

[daring fern]

The person who originally made it was called Steamo

[wind steppe]

weird coincidence ig

[wintry basin]

please help

[hard mica]

its this

[placid star]

in card.lua?

[hard mica]

i guess this thing causes the problems

[hard mica]

yeahî

huh

[placid star]

this is my card.lua

seems more plausible for your situatuon

[daring fern]

Everybody's lovely dump is very different.

[placid star]

oh yeah cause of patches?

[hard mica]

how can i fix it ? i really wanna fix this annoying error

[daring fern]

‎

[hard mica]

i got it from the vanilla remade mod so idk

[placid star]

how can i make this work?

[frosty rampart]

i'm trying to take ownership of Stone Joker, but it still seems to be running the vanilla code for its loc_vars

oops sent early

tldr if i take ownership of Stone Joker, and change card.ability.extra to be a table, it crashes on hover because the vanilla loc_vars definition does arithmetic on card.ability.extra. i can work with it just using card.ability.extra as a number but i'd rather not for convention/consistency purposes

ownership call and localization respectively

[zealous glen]

@chrome widget was this the issue you had ran into

[chrome widget]

No, but it's just unfortunately a result of how SMODS handles vanilla items. Vanilla behavior is maintained as much as possible, so you're going to need to overwrite loc_vars too if you want to avoid it

[frosty rampart]

i am. i think, at least. see the first screenshot

[sleek cliff]

eugh

[placid star]

is set a valid argument to add_card

[frosty rampart]

yes, although i think it needs to be a capital P in 'Planet'

[sleek cliff]

yeah, I just realized the capital too lmao

[hard mica]

im very confused

[wind steppe]

how do i put in a custom tooltip on a joker? it's the description of a modded tag if that helps

[lucid owl]

how could you use context.individual in an enhancement to only make something activate on the card that's calculating? i have an enhancement with a chance to give a random consumable, but the current implementation just gives the cards immediately upon pressing "play hand"

using context.other_card == card doesn't seem to work

[chrome widget]

Oh, right, I see. It might be required to patch out the default line in generate_UIBox_ability_table() that uses it

There are some other instances of taking ownership of default cards that require patches to not break them. For example, I had to patch out code for Swashbuckler and Joker Stencil in Card:update() in addition to taking ownership of the joker to implement them more cleanly

[daring fern]

info_queue?

[wind steppe]

ive tried it but it doesn't help

[daring fern]

Put it in an event.

[wind steppe]

at least the way im doing it

i can get the info queue to spawn descriptions of things in base balatro (like perkeo) but nothing modded

[chrome widget]

This, for example, shows the description for a Negative Tag
info_queue[#info_queue+1] = {key = 'tag_negative', set = 'Tag'}

[wind steppe]

so for a custom tag it would be this? or is that wrong

info_queue[#info_queue+1] = {key = 'prefix_tagname', set = 'Tag'}

thats what i have rn but its blank and the title is error

[chrome widget]

Assuming you have the tag set up correctly in a localization file

[wind steppe]

wait do i need a localization file for that

is loc_txt not enough

[chrome widget]

No

You'd either have to use a loc file or directly add it to G.localization.descriptions.Tag in your file

I think

[wind steppe]

time to learn how to do that then

[frosty rampart]

ok, that makes sense

[daring fern]

Isn't loc_txt automatically put into the localization?

[chrome widget]

I was under the impression that it was kept on the joker definition and it uses the loc file if it doesn't find loc_txt first

[zealous glen]

I thought loc_text was equivalent to having a localization file

[lucid owl]

how would that work? would an event make it evaluate differently?

currently i don't use context.individual, just context.main_scoring

oh, nvm i get what you mean

that makes sense

[daring fern]

If something is not in an event it it will be called when it is calculated not when it happens.

[lucid owl]

yeah, i get what you mean now lol

[spiral crown]

Does anyone know how to iterate through played cards? Tried looping through G.play but its giving me trouble

[daring fern]

for k, v in pairs(context.full_hand) do end

[spiral crown]

thanks!

[wind steppe]

for localization files: are stickers other?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[wind steppe]

are booster packs also other?

[spiral crown]

follow up question if you are willing, any idea how to make this execute so that cards made polychrome are scored as polychrome

[red flower]

yes

[daring fern]

Do it in context.before?

[spiral crown]

that worked, is there a seperate context for scored cards from context.full_hand?

[daring fern]

context.scoring_hand

[spiral crown]

You're a G thanks!

[wind steppe]

does anyone know why none of my descriptions are loading? (also if i look at the deck my game crashes. prob a galdur issue)

[wheat jewel]

How can I check for multiple suits within one joker without it causing any issues?

[maiden phoenix]

What that joker do?

[daring fern]

You put all_speads instead of all_spades

[maiden phoenix]

Also this should be "Spades"

[wheat jewel]

Just noticed that i am dumb 💀

my brain is fried

[maiden phoenix]

I feel like this code could be simplified depending of what this joker does

[wheat jewel]

The joker is meant to activate specific abilities of other flush suit themed jokers depending on the type of flush played

i'm thinking of putting if statements for each suit in one if statement

to simplify the ability

[spice wadi]

i get an error saying its trying to compare a number to a table (its definitely a number) for the mult, but if i manually put a number its fine, whats causing that?
its not giving me an error from my script but from the common_events file

i dont get the same error with the dollars entry and i did print the xmult value beforehand

[last sentinel]

I have an end_of_round effect for a Deck, but it's triggering 6 times instead of just once. Is there an additional context i should use to only have it go through once for defeating a blind?

[wind steppe]

bump

[flat sorrel]

oh, I had this exact issue. I just slapped a random filter on it to fix it to only trigger once, which I guess was and context.game_over ~= nil

idk why I have the explicit nil check

[last sentinel]

thats peculiar, ill give it a shot

[spice wadi]

nevermind i think it randomly started working?? im so confused

[last sentinel]

scanned the chat looks like context.main_eval might also be needed

[flat sorrel]

might be a more sensical filter, wasn't necessary in my case.
the explicit nil is probably unnecessary though I think I was just tired when I wrote that haha

[last sentinel]

Worked!

[primal robin]

Just let others know what I'm cooking #1270746376312979456 message

[wheat jewel]

I did some changes to make code for efficiency reasons but the spades check isn't working

it doesn't return chips

[wind steppe]

bump

[red flower]

the elseif is only reached when you play a heart

change it to a separate if

[wheat jewel]

Gotcha tysm!

[maiden phoenix]

Btw only next(context.poker_hands["Flush"]) is needed, you don't need to check each flush hand

[dapper sun]

how do i use multiple lua files for my mod?

[wind steppe]

assert(SMODS.load_file("filename.lua"))() in main.lua

[dapper sun]

ty

[wind steppe]

why do none of my descriptions load?

^ localization file

[glad osprey]

are you using the right prefix

[wind steppe]

yeah

[glad osprey]

no

I refuse

did you check for capitalization aswell

[wind steppe]

prefix is para all lowercase

[glad osprey]

are the names loading

[wind steppe]

no

[glad osprey]

are you using the correct keys

[wind steppe]

yes

[wild escarp]

Would this code work for storing all played poker hands?

local SMODS_calculate_context_ref = SMODS.calculate_context
function SMODS.calculate_context(context, return_table)
    if context.before and context.main_eval then
        G.GAME.willatro_played_hands[#G.GAME.willatro_played_hands + 1] = G.GAME.hands[context.scoring_name]
    end
    return SMODS_calculate_context_ref(context, return_table)
end

[glad osprey]

is it inside of a localization folder

[glad osprey]

just... check for any hands that have been played?????

[wind steppe]

yes

yknow what heres the (unfinished) mod

maybe i missed something or misspelled something

(also it will crash if you dont have cryptid)

[wild escarp]

I want to track played hands so I can eventually get to resetting at the end of the ante, and then also upgrading any hands not played at the end of the ante, this is the only way I can think of doing it.

[turbid maple]

its dependent on cryptid? whats in this mod

why do i ask when i could just look actually

lemme see

[wind steppe]

food jokers

i haven't made my own food joker thing yet

its probably fine unless you actually open the pack so it should load

[turbid maple]

huh yeah i have no idea why it wouldnt load

you just get empty text?

[wind steppe]

wait does it load for you?

[turbid maple]

no im just looking at the lua code dont have the game witj me rn

[wind steppe]

if anyone else wants to help with my localization files i have the whole mod up here

[red flower]

i looked at it and it looks fine

let me run it

hmm yeah doesnt work

[turbid maple]

somethings cursed because the files and keys look fine

[wind steppe]

does anyone know a digital exorcist

[red flower]

it's en_US

?

no yeah it's en-us i think

[wind steppe]

yknow what may as well try it

[turbid maple]

oh the filenames wrong

[wind steppe]

wait

[red flower]

yup that works

[wind steppe]

it was named en_us instead of en-us

[red flower]

yeah

[wind steppe]

pros of programming: it does exactly what you tell it to

cons of programming: it does exactly what you tell it to

[red flower]

btw i just noticed jokerdisplay has the same problem

[wind steppe]

YES

[red flower]

but ive never noticed because the default is english

[turbid maple]

😔

[wind steppe]

wait actually hold on

why is the hyphen only for english

[red flower]

[wind steppe]

every other language that needs something like that uses an underscore

[turbid maple]

existence of en-us implies the existence of British balatro

[wind steppe]

bo'oh o' seltzer

[red flower]

australian balatro

[dapper sun]

[wind steppe]

the funny part is i think en-us is british balatro (steamodded uses colour and not color)

[dapper sun]

also spare trousers

true

[turbid maple]

fuck youre right

[wind steppe]

maybe the united states was britain all along

[dapper sun]

there was no independence, we were still colonizing this whole time /j

aaanyways, uhhh,,

how do i add an extra side button to a joker

[red flower]

i hook card:highlight and make the buttons myself

[turbid maple]

find someone that did it and copy it off of them

[dapper sun]

fair

[turbid maple]

i copied mine off the lobotomy corp mod

thank you mysti

[wind steppe]

nothing is original

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/1f60413b8a13267634fa8e9945dfa37358f40c04/src/general_ui.lua#L307

[dapper sun]

ty

i don't understand this :p

[red flower]

well

[dapper sun]

i may just do this

ik the vinesauce mod does it

[sturdy compass]

Yeah that's kinda the best way to go about it and learn from it lol

[primal robin]

Damn

[turbid maple]

just try to understand how it works i suppose

you cant just have a button anyway you do need to hook it to things you want it to do

putting stuff in rows and columns still confuses me

[primal robin]

After seeing this code my life became harder

[red flower]

it's not that complicated lol

it's literally the same code 4 times for each kind of joker i have

copied from vanilla

[primal robin]

The problem is it's not a G.UIDEF.use_and_sell_buttons hook

Problem for me specifically

[red flower]

i wanted more control

[primal robin]

uhhhhhh

[red flower]

you will catch me dead before i use get_UIE_by_ID

[primal robin]

This thing triggers before highlighting card, I have no access for card.childre.use_button

[red flower]

they pop up for a second

its funny

[primal robin]

Tbh I don't want to highlight card, do checks, and unhighlight it if needed, like idk

Maybe I should... but... uhhhhh

[wind steppe]

wait my tag description doesnt work

how do i get a textbox about a booster pack?

tooltip

[red flower]

isnt it the same as a joker

never tried it

[primal robin]

Hm, maybe highlighting a card is not the worst thing I can do I guess

[wild escarp]

Is there any easier way to check hands played/not played in an ante? because I can not figure out this hooking stuff.

[wind steppe]

https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/129557-tutorial-function-hooking-and-you/

tldr: copy paste the bottom function and change the function ur hooking

[wild escarp]

I can copy and paste fine, just struggling with the Smods garbage.

[misty shoal]

next(SMODS.get_enhancements(card)) gets if there's enhancements on a card, is there a get_seals / get_editions?

looking to check if the card is completely untouched

[dapper sun]

nvmd it replaces use

[misty shoal]

saw that

[dapper sun]

sticker ban 💔

[frosty rampart]

there's not a get_seals, but if not card.seal will be true if card has no seal
same goes for if not card.edition on a card with no edition

[misty shoal]

interesting

[zealous glen]

What else is there

[misty shoal]

can you also more simply do if not card.enhancement too then?

formatting king right here

[frosty rampart]

[misty shoal]

fantastic

[dapper sun]

why isn't this working?

[turbid maple]

I believe that doesn't work because SMODS lets you do this freaky thing where a card can have multiple enhancements

[wind steppe]

how do i make a sticker tooltip

its not info_queue[#1116390750314307698_queue+1] = {key = 'para_negativesticker', set = 'Sticker'}

[turbid maple]

with stuff like this existing

[frosty rampart]

you have to have an extra () after the assert call

[dapper sun]

ah ok

[red flower]

recreating the whole ui from scratch

[wind steppe]

that seems significantly worse

[red flower]

arent stickers in other

i know because you asked earlier

[wind steppe]

yeah ig they are

trying that

that fixed the issue

[red flower]

what

oh

[misty shoal]

why does this trigger on every face card

[shut crater]

you are checking the edition, seal, and enhancements of the triggering card, not the scored card

you probably want to use context.other_card for all those checks

[misty shoal]

oughhh

right

yeah the joker has no seal so that makes sense

[sleek siren]

Is there a way I can make every new spawned playing card (from either a booster pack or a spectral card, etc) into a certain rank?

[wind steppe]

hook card creation maybe?

[wild escarp]

What would I use to copy a played card?

[sleek siren]

I'll give it a try! ^^

[wind steppe]

check how dna or cryptid does it

[wild escarp]

So, I've got this, but it crashes, anyone know why?

if context.before and context.main_eval then
    for k, v in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
        if v.enhancement or v.seal or v.edition then
            G.playing_card = (G.playing_card and G.playing_card + 1) or 1
            local _card = copy_card(context.scoring_hand[v], nil, nil, G.playing_card)
            _card:add_to_deck()
            G.deck.config.card_limit = G.deck.config.card_limit + 1
            table.insert(G.playing_cards, _card)
            G.hand:emplace(_card)
            _card.states.visible = nil

            G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                func = function()
                    _card:start_materialize()
                    return true
                end
            })) 
            return {
                message = localize('k_copied_ex'),
                colour = G.C.CHIPS,
                playing_cards_created = {true}
            }
        end
    end
end

[wind steppe]

my tag description and name only displays in the info queue for some reason

[wind steppe]

which line there is 375?

[wild escarp]

local _card = copy_card(context.scoring_hand[v], nil, nil, G.playing_card)

[primal robin]

Oh it looks so bad omg

[wind steppe]

try playing just one card and let me know if it crashes

[wild escarp]

Still crashes.

[dapper sun]

yea this was just a hook to override the text 😭

[wind steppe]

try renaming _card so it doesn't start with an underscore

[dapper sun]

that shouldn't make a difference

it's a variable name

[wind steppe]

it shouldnt but idk what else the problem would be

[wild escarp]

Yeah, same problem.

[dapper sun]

anyone know mods that add an extra button to a joker?

i remember seeing a mod that added a "flip" card thingy that added an extra button to a joker in a yt vid but idk the mod

[flint fern]

anyone know a sound replacer mod? (aka. a soundpack mod)

[wind steppe]

cryptid

double sided edition

[dapper sun]

i'm looking in cryptid but don't see it

i may have an older cryptid version

[flint fern]

i dont think anyone knows a soundpack mod
so...

fine, i'll do it myself

[wind steppe]

bump

[flint fern]

-# firstly how do you replace a sound in steamodded

[shrewd cobalt]

Can someone help me figure out whats going on with trying to replicate blueprint? The game keeps crashing with a attempt to call method 'juice_up' (a nil value)

[manic rune]

@lament agate

[dapper sun]

even the latest cryptid version doesn't have that listed in the collection

[flint fern]

:o

[manic rune]

whats your tag's key, and how does the localization look like?

[manic rune]

shouldnt there be a class prefix like t_ similar to j_ for jokers?

[wind steppe]

oh

right

[dapper sun]

i can't find it anywhere in cryptid

this is cancer btw

i'm looking in cryptid's files already

...?

[wind steppe]

in my version of cryptid thats where it is

try ctrl f

[dapper sun]

ok

i'll look in ur version

found it ty

[wild escarp]

Anyone know why this doesn't do anything? I took the high priestess code from vanillaremade and put it in a joker.

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.setting_blind then
        for i = 1, math.min(card.ability.extra.planets, G.consumeables.config.card_limit - #G.consumeables.cards) do
            G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                trigger = 'after',
                delay = 0.4,
                func = function()
                    if G.consumeables.config.card_limit > #G.consumeables.cards then
                        play_sound('timpani')
                        SMODS.add_card({ set = 'Planet' })
                        card:juice_up(0.3, 0.5)
                    end
                    return true
                end
            }))
        end
    end
end

[dapper sun]

okay idk how any of this works

[sturdy compass]

Cryptid lowkey sucks to reference ngl

[dapper sun]

i can tell,,

does anyone know any other mods that add a button to a joker

[sturdy compass]

If I had a nickel for people who were asking about button stuff today I would have two nickels lmao

[dapper sun]

lol

[sturdy compass]

If this were a new card type I would be able to help but not here unfortunately 😭

[dapper sun]

instead it's a specific joker,,

[turbid maple]

did you look at lobo corpo

[dapper sun]

lobo corpo?

[sturdy compass]

Lobotomy Corporation

[turbid maple]

lobotpmy corp

its pretty simple implementation

[dapper sun]

ok

[primal robin]

@red flower may I ask you to test this thing for your mod? I'm curious is this works fine.
#1270746376312979456 message

Jut in one place, to make sure it not crash or smth

I just idk how to test it quickly because mod has so much content

[dapper sun]

what should i be looking for in the mod?

i'm not familiar with the mod or the source material

[turbid maple]

uhh p sure the implementarion is in the giant main file

[dapper sun]

what joker(?) is it?

[turbid maple]

its not jker specific as you asked

ctrl f for --=============== ACTIVES ===============--

[high sinew]

Just curious tryna to see if there is a good place for learning or understanding the API for SMODS more. I am looking thru other mods and SMODS too and just a little stuck. Can anyone help?

[turbid maple]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/tree/591b7129f30d2ab2ea4b47782d004294fd94b440 have you seen this

[ornate prism]

Hello, I'm developing for the Balatro Multiplayer mod. I was trying to implement a new feature when I encountered a drawing crash cause by a nil access. When debugging the issue, I found this bug in the main Balatro source code. this self.T.H is most certainly supposed to be self.T.h, lowercase h. Is this known?

[turbid maple]

if you want more specific advanced stuf im afraid theres no better docs beyond other peoples code

[wild escarp]

bump

[misty shoal]

what does this unlock code mean, it's present for all remade legendaries

[high sinew]

i meant like for adding something in the game that doesnt exist

[dapper sun]

ok think is progress i think

[unborn bay]

why is the use button pink

[frosty rampart]

the vanilla remade examples should hopefully still be able to model at least some parts of what you're looking for. e.g. castle would demonstrate how to do a permanent scaling joker, how to identify a card's suit, and how to perform an action upon discarding a card

[high sinew]

No I mean kinda like what Partner & other API based mods

[dapper sun]

i'm using a mod that adds different colour palettes

[dapper sun]

i'm using the trans palette

i'll prob disable it tho to make future screenshots look more like vanilla

or just switch to the vanilla palette

[frosty rampart]

as void said (which you might have missed), your best bet is just referencing other mods at that point. there's not much documentation at least partially because it's a super broad concept, and it's hard to identify what would be generally useful vs what would just be a tutorial for your specific idea

[high sinew]

ok fair I get it yea it def get what u mean its just tough man 😖 lol but thank you ill study some mods any good suggestions?

[frosty rampart]

not really, i haven't played around with bigger mods like that yet (in-game or from a modding perspective). but if partner is the first one you named it's probably not a bad choice

[wild escarp]

bump, and is there a way for a joker to give another joker a sticker?

[shut crater]

to answer your sticker question: https://github.com/chaseoqueso/Powerful_Balatro/blob/master/jokers/lich.lua#L40

[shut crater]

what is card.ability.extra.planets set to?

[wild escarp]

[hoary stream]

why my joker doesnt retrigger another joker ability

SMODS.Joker{
    key = 'gamer',
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Gamer',
        text = {
        },
    },
    atlas = 'Jokers',
    rarity = 2,
    cost = 8,
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = false,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    pos = {x = 7, y = 0},
    config = { 
        extra = { odds = 20, odds_mod = 1 }
    },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.odds, card.ability.extra.odds_mod } }
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if (context.retrigger_joker_check and not context.retrigger_joker) and context.other_card ~= "Gamer" then
            return {
                message = localize("k_again_ex"),
                repetitions = 1,
                card = card,
            }
        else
            return nil, true
        end
    end
}

[red flower]

it doesn't crash no, and handy_insta_action = "sell" allows me to sell cards from my other cardareas so that's cool
my other custom buttons don't work tho sadly

[hasty mist]

how do i apply an effect to every joker to the right? (for example, retriggering)

[odd shadow]

the mod i created will not show up in the game, so i cannot tell if my code will work

help

[rapid stag]

question, :is_face() naturally takes pareidolia into account, right?

[red flower]

correction: most of them work, you labeled them handy_insta_actions instead of handy_insta_action in your post lol

some of them don't work idk why

[odd shadow]

does anyone know why my file isnt showing up in game 💔

[copper shell]

the simplex tableau

[rapid stag]

what am i doing wrong with my logic here that it's doing the extra xchips at end of round?
do i need to do context.main_eval?

[daring fern]

and not context.end_of_round?

[rapid stag]

can context.end_of_round and context.individual happen at the same time?

[red flower]

yes

you need not context.end_of_round

[rapid stag]

also, how is hand size during a blind controlled?

[lament sparrow]

What's the best way to test a consumable immediantly?

[rapid stag]

debugplus

[red flower]

G.hand.config.card_limit? or G.hand:change_size(mod) if you want to change it

[rapid stag]

where can i find the definition of change_size

[red flower]

i imagine it's in cardarea.lua

[wheat jewel]

I'm trying to make a joker produce xmult whend detecting a flush of clubs but it doesn't give Xmult at all

[lament sparrow]

Hmm... my mod doesn't load

[red flower]

did you restart the run

[hoary stream]

            return {
                message = localize("k_again_ex"),
                repetitions = 1,
                card = card,
            } ```
why doesn’t this do anything

[rapid stag]

my understanding of how the poker hands table works is that next(context.poker_hands["Straight Flush"]) is unnecessary as next(context.poker_hands["Flush"]) will always be true when the hand contains a flush

[red flower]

do you have the retrigger optional feature enabled

also context.other_card ~= "Gamer" is always true

[marsh turtle]

where in the documentation can I find more info on how other_joker is used in Steammoded context?

[wheat jewel]

My issue is that the spades part works but the clubs part doesn't when I use my Joker with Smeared Joker

[lament sparrow]

How do I fix this?
Found invalid metadata JSON file at C:\Users\vieta\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\Mods/Gaff Mod/GaffMod.json, ignoring: [SMODS _ "src/utils.lua"]:566: bad argument #1 to 'match' (string expected, got nil)

[hoary stream]

oh I completely forgot about that

[red flower]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Calculate-Functions

[wheat jewel]

did that and it's still the same issue

trying to test my joker with smeared joker to see if it's working as intended

but the Xmult for clubs doesn't trigger

[red flower]

does it work without it

[wheat jewel]

with a flush of clubs and spades

[red flower]

if it works without it then the problem is that youre returning for spades and it never reaches clubs

[wheat jewel]

Yeah it does work without it

[odd shadow]

The folder for my mod will not show up in game doesn anyone know why

[wheat jewel]

how can i make it to where my joker can work with wild cards and smeared joker

[marsh turtle]

OHH now I get what Blueprint is saying in the code!!

It essentially checks if the next card after it is a joker and compatible with Blueprint, right?

[red flower]

replace all your ifs with this

if next(context.poker_hands["Flush"]) then
  return {
    mult = all_hearts and card.ability.extra.mult or nil,
    chips = all_spades and card.ability.extra.chips or nil,
    xmult = all_clubs and card.ability.extra.Xmult or nil,
  }
end
