[minor magnet]

yes but being saved makes it so the blind gives no reward money

[keen loom]

how do you add a gradient to rarity?

[summer furnace]

where do I find saved in the source code?

[daring fern]

SMODS.Gradient

[thorn furnace]

How would I go about destroying all the cards in the scored hand

[daring fern]

if context.destroy_card and context.cardarea == G.play then
    return {remove = true}
end

[thorn furnace]

i tried just doing this but I didn't quite realize that was just all of the cards

[thorn furnace]

thanks

[pearl bane]

How can I add keys to the current run's "save"? I want to store some data that is saved per-run

[cinder cliff]

What are the different types of 'sets' create_card can use?

Like that

But the others, like I want it to act like a standard pack, some base, and some enhanced

[daring fern]

"Joker", "Tarot", "Planet", "Spectral", "Consumeables", "Booster", "Voucher", "Tarot_Planet"?

[cinder cliff]

'Base' Makes them all base, Enhanced makes them all enhanced

I want a mix, like the standard packs

'Tarot_Planet' is a set type apparently

[keen loom]

made the color, now how do i assign it to the rarity?

[daring fern]

Put the SMODS.Gradient in a variable and use that.

[last sentinel]

anyone know why this spectral is crashing upon use? must be something small cause this is pretty identical to how other mods implement this

[daring fern]

Log?

[last sentinel]

It wasnt working for a modded seal im making but its still now not working even tho seal is just 'Red'

no idea why _seal is Green when thats nowhere in the code for the Spectral

[daring fern]

What line is that in the lovely dump?

[last sentinel]

how do you mean?

[daring fern]

In Mods/lovely/dump/card.lua what is line 569?

[last sentinel]

aha, in set_seal

which would make sense as a crash if _seal is Green

[daring fern]

The seal you're inputting doesn't exist.

[last sentinel]

I think i know what it is one sec

I was testing without recreating the card so it had the old seal info let me check recreating the card

yup

thanks for the help!

for a modded seal, would the {seal = } be modprefix_sealkey ?

[daring fern]

modprefix_sealkey

[last sentinel]

perfectg

[keen loom]

it's crashing

[glad bough]

[daring fern]

Code?

Did you forget to return true?

Try using mult and hand_chips instead of G.GAME.current_round.current_hand.chips

My mistake I meant hand_chips for chips.

[thorn furnace]

Just to clarify
How exactly does the tag thing work

not entirely sure

[daring fern]

You mean loc_vars?

[thorn furnace]

yeah

i have the things defined and everything but it doesn't work

[glad bough]

note: i only started modding balatro today ;)

how can i make a custom joker that halves the current mult? i tried this but the game crashed

[daring fern]

Use card not self

[thorn furnace]

thanks

[modern kindle]

good schmorning chat

[glad bough]

thanks lad

[thorn furnace]

just in those two places?

[daring fern]

Everywhere mostly.

[thorn furnace]

unconditionally?

[daring fern]

No? Mostly everywhere you would use card not self?

[thorn furnace]

I just don't know what "mostly" means here

[unborn bay]

self refers to the center object, in layman's terms, the card's base definition

card refers to the instance of that center in a card in the game

[thorn furnace]

gotcha

[unborn bay]

note: card is not a center

old code used to mistakely refer to them as centers originally

[thorn furnace]

The base joker I built this off of didn't use card at all which makes this confusing
Because it seems to break things when I start to use card

[unborn bay]

so keep an eye out for those

[thorn furnace]

oki

[thorn furnace]

Depending on how I do things I get one of these errors

[spice wadi]

Can you show the entire code?

[glad bough]

how does the stupid uh

coloured text work

tryna replicate ts

[spice wadi]

Find the text styling page on the SMODS wiki

But the short version is that anything between the 2 sets of {} gets changed

You specify what you want it to look like in the first set

And C: just means colour, and there's a list of colours you can put after

[thorn furnace]

#💻・modding-dev message

[spice wadi]

Can you show where lines 491 and 492 are as well

[thorn furnace]

depending on how I replace self with card it breaks things
in the way of the two errors
If I change the calculate function to have the parameters like what I see in the vanilla remade mod then the second happens
and otherwise it's the first

[thorn furnace]

if self.debuff then return nil end
  if context.joker_main then

[spice wadi]

You didn't put card into the calculate function

[thorn furnace]

If I change the calculate function to have the parameters like what I see in the vanilla remade mod then the second error happens

sorry i shouldve been less vague

they do this

[spice wadi]

It doesn't change that it's how you're supposed to use the calculate function

I'm not sure where the error is coming from

But you need to put card in there

[thorn furnace]

then i get this

[red flower]

where are you getting your example from

i think that's from an old smods version

[thorn furnace]

i got it from the examplejimbos mod

[spice wadi]

Found the issue

I think

Did you send the entire joker code

[thorn furnace]

i did yea

[spice wadi]

Because I don't see SMODS.joker at the start

[red flower]

that's what i mean

[spice wadi]

You should use VanillaRemade

[red flower]

just start again using one of the modern examples like the smods examples repo or vanillaremade

you can copy the contents of calculate into the new one

[thorn furnace]

first mod is going well

[spice wadi]

Everyone makes mistakes the first time

[thorn furnace]

Honestly I've been going at this for like a full 8 hours now I'm probably just gonna try this tomorrow

[spice wadi]

Good luck
When you restart, I'd recommend reading the documentation, looking at VanillaRemade and other examples, and there's also a Balatro Modding Starter Pack post in this server that has very helpful guidance

[thorn furnace]

noted
Thanks :3

[glad bough]

anyone know why the 1 and 3 appear as nil ingame?

yah

so how does loc_vars work?

[spice wadi]

Look at the wiki and examples from smth like vanilla remade

[glad bough]

alright!

[spice wadi]

The short version is that it's a list of variables you want to use in places like the description

So #1# would be the first variable

[tall wharf]

can someone do this rq

[glad bough]

can card sprites be gifs

[wintry solar]

Have you managed to check this yet?

[daring fern]

They can be animated but they cannot be GIFs.

[glad bough]

unfortunate

really wanted to add that one gif of a horse nodding as a card

[tall wharf]

i haven't

I've been away from my PC like half the day because weather was unbearable inside my room without AC

[wintry solar]

I’m 99% sure it’s just a visual issue and the limit doesn’t actually persist

[tall wharf]

and i wake up super late in the day

[wintry solar]

I can test soon when kiddo is sleeping

[tall wharf]

also i saw that the limit is in the button

right

i think it being under the button might look better

[wintry solar]

Eh maybe but not worth the effort I think

[tall wharf]

i think the wording should change

maybe instead of limit it's "Up to x"

[wintry solar]

Hmmmm

Maybe Limit: 6 cards

[tall wharf]

i personally think using the : makes it a bit murky

and up to feels more natural

[spice wadi]

With some work you can still add it but not as a gif specifically

[glad bough]

how would i implement it?

do i have to upload every single frame or something

[wintry solar]

Do you think adding cards on the end helps with up to?

[tall wharf]

the problem with adding cards at the end is that it might get too long

[spice wadi]

I'd guess so? Try finding a mod with an animated texture

[glad bough]

yeah righto

[wintry solar]

That’s true

I’ll see what Up to looks like

[tall wharf]

i think this makes more sense

i think if it's more than hand size it should show like Up to hand size

[keen loom]

what do y'all think about these consumable ideas?

• pet cards, which adds one-time bonuses and would unlock a second buff for a specific eligible cookie
• item cards, which would give an extra buff/debuff to specific cookies, or cookies of certain elements

[red flower]

some things give you more cards than hand size

even in vanilla

[tall wharf]

ah

well i guess up to entire hand

not hand size

[wintry solar]

I wouldn’t want to cap the number

[tall wharf]

and instead of hand size it counts number of cards present in hand

[wintry solar]

I think it’s important to know if it’s higher and you can afford to lower it

[tall wharf]

alright

does this display anywhere else in the run other than play button

[wintry solar]

-# though it does cap at the other end of the scale

It doesn’t

[tall wharf]

maybe some general info should be in run info window

in case certain parts of the run isn't present but is important

but i digress

i think Up to works fine

[wintry solar]

I’m still not convinced it doesn’t need cards

[tall wharf]

which is fair

[wintry solar]

Intuitively when I read “play hand up to 6” I think it means I have six hands to play

[tall wharf]

hmmm

Max 6 cards

[wintry solar]

Maybe it could just be “X cards”

[tall wharf]

I think the clarification that it's the hand limit should be there

also yeah it's a visual bug

(new run)

[wintry solar]

Yeah I’ll get that cleaned up in a couple of minutes

Max X cards should work

[tall wharf]

yeah max X cards works for me

[cyan lagoon]

any way to spawn a card wherever i want?

[daring fern]

SMODS.add_card({area = whereyouwant})

[glad bough]

is there a way to smoothly "replace" a card

[glad bough]

instead of just destroying it and spawning another one in

[cyan lagoon]

as in anywhere on the screen

[daring fern]

card:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS["class_modprefix_key"])?

[daring fern]

If you don't emplace it, it can go anywhere, but it can also be moved anywhere.

[glad bough]

ill try that 👍

[cyan lagoon]

here, this one's from my mod

[glad bough]

also where are sound files stored?

[daring fern]

The vanilla sounds?

[glad bough]

nah i wanna add custom ones

[daring fern]

mod/assets/sounds

[cyan lagoon]

i believe @daring fern wrote it

[glad bough]

thanks!

[cyan lagoon]

ok, but i wanna spawn it offscreen

[daring fern]

There will be problems if you try to turn a joker into a consumable or the other way round.

[daring fern]

Make a custom card area.

[glad bough]

as expected

[glad bough]

in this instance i am using a joker so would class be "joker"

[faint yacht]

j_

[cyan lagoon]

any good way to do that?

[glad bough]

oh alright

[daring fern]

I'm not sure try looking at a mod that makes hidden card areas.

[lyric blade]

Is it possible to create a card with an individual sprite? Like a text on it

[glad bough]

wdym?

[tall wharf]

ah right.

[glad bough]

that may be an issue

:uglycat

oh

[lyric blade]

Like create a playing card, but it has text as a texture. Since it can be infinite it has to create the sprite via code

Well I think I go an idea I guess nevermind maybe

[glad bough]

i guess it would be?

[lyric blade]

Should be possible just gotta know how lol

[glad bough]

well shucks what do i do here

[lyric blade]

Create the file

[glad bough]

i did

[lyric blade]

Isn't recource/sounds/ and mods/TestCard/assets/sounds different places?

Maybe it doesn't look for it in the mods dictionary

[daring fern]

SMODS makes the game think it's looking there but its not I think.

[glad bough]

ah i see what i need to do

[lyric blade]

Gotta maybe manually tell from where it uses that sound

[glad bough]

progress

[unborn bay]

is it a wav

is it a ogg

[glad bough]

it is a ogg

[unborn bay]

reexport it or smth

[glad bough]

aight

does .wav work too?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[glad bough]

yeah righto

argh i hate to ask a lotta questions all at once but i would go about adding a custom ui message, that text that appears underneath a joker

[cinder cliff]

I did that at one point

Do you mean just a message?

Or a fully custom thing?

[red flower]

yes

[cinder cliff]

Anyways, how do I make it so when a custom boosterpack is opened, it has a mix of base and enhanced cards?

'Base' makes it all base

and 'Enhanced' is all enhanced

Just wondering if there is a mix

[glad bough]

dunno what its called but that little message that would appear under, say, the ice cream joker telling you hhow many chips it added

[red flower]

you have to do a pseudorandom between those two with a weight probably

[cinder cliff]

That is a message

[glad bough]

but instead of like "mult" or "chips" it would be a string

[glad bough]

yeah righto

[cinder cliff]

I did that at one point

Lemme find my code

[daring fern]

SMODS.calculate_effect({message = "string"}, card)

[glad bough]

bloody champion

cheers lad

[cinder cliff]

How would I go about doing that in create_card?

As far as I know, it just does all the cards at once

[red flower]

it doesnt

it goes through each card

thats why it has a i argument

[cinder cliff]

oh yeah

[red flower]

replace self for card

[cinder cliff]

I just have this rn create_card = function(self, card) return create_card("Base", G.pack_cards, nil, nil, true, true, nil, "buf")

[glad bough]

would something like this work for changing the image of a card?

[tall wharf]

i believe self actually refers to the thing you define

[red flower]

we should change the standard to calculate(_, card, context) lol

[cinder cliff]

idk what I am supposed to be seeing

[cinder cliff]

ah

[hard mica]

whats the key for the main menu balatro logo for the atlas

[cinder cliff]

Where do I change this? (Won't let me screen snip for some reason)

[glad bough]

man i hate that theres a delay with calculate effect

[wintry solar]

wdym

[hard mica]

i want to replace the colors of the balatro logo in the main menu but idk the atlas of it

[daring fern]

SMODS.calculate_effect usually goes before everything?

[open aspen]

i know this is farfetched but does take_ownership create any kind of lovely log or dump?

[cinder cliff]

How do I fix it saying error?

[cinder cliff]

Which page is that on?

[red flower]

SMODS.Booster

[cinder cliff]

I swear I looked there earlier

Thank you

[daring fern]

"balatro"

[hard mica]

thanks

[spice wadi]

there isnt a delay, it just depends on where you put it
make sure youre doing it under the right context

[glad bough]

Weird

I use play sound then right after I use calculate effect to make a message and there is a massive delay between the two

[daring fern]

Is it in an event?

[glad bough]

Yes

[daring fern]

Code?

[glad bough]

I’m on mobile rn unfortunately but it’s the event that runs when all jokers and stuff have been played

[daring fern]

context.destroy_card?

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/6bb8d3df89a1b2af17280ba8b52a902729d66f58/src/enhancements.lua#L29

[daring fern]

You need to return remove = true and you need to check if context.destroy_card == card

[cyan lagoon]

am i doing this right?

i'm trying to retrieve the key of the last joker in the custom cardarea

and put it into info_queue

[daring fern]

I think so.

[daring fern]

What line is that in the dump?

[cyan lagoon]

oh, wait, the cards might not be 'Joker' set in that cardarea

wait, no

i specify 'Joker' set when creating them

[wintry solar]

use G.P_CENTERS[card1.config.center_key] as your infoqueue

[cyan lagoon]

yes, but that has info_queue of the joker that get put there

i dont really want that

[wintry solar]

what are you trying to put in the info queue then?

[cyan lagoon]

key of the joker in a custom card area

[wintry solar]

the key in text form?

[cyan lagoon]

uhh... yea...? what you usually put there

a string or smth

[wintry solar]

then do what I said before

[unborn bay]

they're looking to avoid creating the info_queues of that center within the info_queue

[open aspen]

how do i give myself vouchers with debug plus?

need to test a bunch of consumables quickly and want to give myself crystal ball a ton

[unborn bay]

be in shop, hover over the voucher and press 3

[open aspen]

i see

wasnt in shop

ty

[cyan lagoon]

yes, that works but that creates info_queues i dont want

[wintry solar]

then you'd have to create your own info tooltips to avoid that

[unborn bay]

i think you can just get away with a custom generate_ui function for info_queue here

[glad bough]

Are those things on the left called “info_queues”?

[cyan lagoon]

yea

[glad bough]

Interesting

I outta add that

[cyan lagoon]

cause that's how you add them

[frigid blaze]

Can you tell me who can draw Jokers to order?

[copper shell]

anyone here know what a lua is?

[glad bough]

Programming language

[cyan lagoon]

a potion

[lucid owl]

evil substance forged in the depths of hell

[copper shell]

where's the dictionary?

[copper shell]

where's the confectionary?

[copper shell]

where's the purgatory?

where's the observatory?

[glad bough]

Aw man I can’t post gifs

Wrong image

[copper shell]

right image

[glad bough]

I captioned that image with “this is mf doom”

[copper shell]

who is that mf and why is there such dread around them

[lucid owl]

not really 💔

doesn't work like the other ones

[glad bough]

You rich

Right

[lucid owl]

rapper known for lots of rhyming and wordplay

[glad bough]

Leave me alone!

[lucid owl]

passed away in 2020, lots of memes about his musical style

[copper shell]

this explains the dread

[cyan lagoon]

ok another question, how do i pass multiple blueprint_effect?

[daring fern]

Are you trying to make a joker that copies other jokers that aren't present?

[unborn bay]

nest extra tables together

[cyan lagoon]

yea

[cyan lagoon]

oh, so return it as a table?

[unborn bay]

nonono

return a single table, with an extra table, and in that extra table, have another extra table

hence 'nesting extra tables'

[glad bough]

Funny

[cyan lagoon]

where i put the rets, right?

no?

[daring fern]

I have a function for that.

https://github.com/Somethingcom515/SealsOnJokers/blob/allinone/allinone.lua#L84

[wintry solar]

ret1.extra = ret2
ret1.extra.extra = ret3
return ret3```

that's the basic structure

[spice wadi]

Would SMODS.calculate_effect also work here?

[wintry solar]

yes

[spice wadi]

Alright thought so

[wintry solar]

though if you use calc effect on all 3 you should add return nil, true afterwards

[spice wadi]

Cos I switched to using that over nested tables cos it got messy

[spice wadi]

Noted

[daring fern]

But if one of the jokers is using an extra table itself that would overwrite it?

[wintry solar]

yes

it would

[wintry solar]

it's so the calc system knows that the joker has triggered

[scarlet thorn]

SMODS.blueprint_effect

Cmon guys

It just works

Err wait, I'm reading my own code wrong

Yea something has the best solution

[unborn bay]

yeah

this is why my extra table nesting code has a check if it already has an extra table

[cyan lagoon]

ok, am i missing something?

[unborn bay]

if so nest into the extra table of that extra table

[wintry solar]

you'll need to make sure that the rets actually exist

[cyan lagoon]

so 'if ret1 then' and 'if ret1.extra then'?

[wintry solar]

it's probably easier to just do SMODS.calculate_effect(ret1, card)

[cyan lagoon]

so i was on the right track...

nope

[wintry solar]

would still need the check for existance

if next(ret1) then ...

[red flower]

a smods util function to do this would be cool

[cyan lagoon]

ok, i removed next and it sorta work, but it crashed with one of the jokers so now i'm testing different jokers for crashes

[keen loom]

does a legendary joker that turns scoring cards into stone cards and gives them a mult bonus too op?

[cyan lagoon]

with legendaries you can do whatever the hell you want really

[keen loom]

so is that op enough?

[spice wadi]

We live in a world where chicot is a legendary and photochad is common

Legendaries can be anything as long as they aren't chicot

[daring fern]

You should probably remove the jokers that aren't being copied before the game starts lagging.

[cyan lagoon]

nono it works fine, just context.individual isnt working visually

[daring fern]

No, I meant if you sell too many common jokers the game will start to lag?

[cyan lagoon]

already did that

every 4th joker gets removed

cause i only need 3

ok, just gotta fix this now

[midnight coyote]

does anyone know how to outright replace a boss blind with another one in the pool?

[cyan lagoon]

SMODS.take_ownership?

i dunno how that works, but that should be it

[midnight coyote]

that doesnt seem right

[daring fern]

Try looking at how cryptid does it.

[midnight coyote]

im not changing existing boss blinds

more just pushing the vanilla ones away and slotting mine in their place

[midnight coyote]

okie dok

[vale berry]

i like this

[cyan lagoon]

ok, i fixed 1 part, the text actually appears on the card, but the joker still triggers before the card

[midnight coyote]

how do i see current ante

[daring fern]

G.GAME.round_resets.ante?

[midnight coyote]

i think?

if thats current ante then thats rightg

[verbal hare]

i have a problem, my joker doesnt debuff, can someone check it rq?:

[faint yacht]

G.GAME.round_resets.blind_choices.Boss = get_new_boss()

[shut crater]

Bunco also does this in the form of a booster pack, if that helps

[midnight coyote]

already implemented, but thanks!

[faint acorn]

Have some code that I simply ripped off a tutorial just to see if I can get something into the game, however it doesn't appear in the collection. Any help would be very nice

[daring fern]

Keys can't have spaces.

[long sun]

hiya! my Zodiac Packs have a bug, where you can take Zodiac cards from them, even if you don't have any free consumable slots

but, i can't see how i'd fix that. is there something i can add that would fix this bug?

[faint acorn]

omfg I feel like a dumbass

tysm

[daring fern]

Why are you using card.config.center.config.choose?

[red flower]

i dont know if there's an easier way to do it but you can do a hook like this
https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/1f60413b8a13267634fa8e9945dfa37358f40c04/src/extra_deck.lua#L172

[midnight coyote]

how would i get rid of this odd particle effect around the cards in my ritual pack?

[long sun]

iirc, i adapted code from Cryptid, which isn't usually a good idea, but it mostly works

i don't remember exactly what i did when writing the code

[long sun]

grand, thank you :D

[faint acorn]

found the error but got no idea what it does

[verbal hare]

bump pls

[tired kestrel]

isn't there already an undertale mod for balatro?

[long sun]

okay, progress update — i tried this, but selecting Zodiacs from packs now crashes

lemme grab the log

[cyan lagoon]

yes, but this is Undertale Yellow mod

• why not have 2?

[hard mica]

tried that but it didnt change the balatro title sprite

[daring fern]

Because select_card doesn't exist.

[long sun]

right

mm, what should it be, then?

[hard mica]

idk if i wrote it wrong or smth

[daring fern]

I think it's still use_card

[long sun]

lemme try that

[red flower]

use_card is just the general name of the function that handles that button

[long sun]

ahh gotcha :D

[daring fern]

I think you need to do raw_key = true

[long sun]

yay, perfect! thank you :D

mm, one more bug, but it's a visual bug

when selecting a Zodiac from a Mega Zodiac Pack, the bottom UI moves down, as it does when using a consumable, and immediately comes back up

[midnight coyote]

Bump

[long sun]

that doesn't happen with Standard Packs, so is there a fix for that?

[hard mica]

the only thing i want to change is the card in the middle to match the green and purple

idk how to tho

[keen loom]

is it possible to add images in descriptions?

[daring fern]

I've seen people do it before.

[keen loom]

i kinda want to try adding small icons or something

[snow vale]

how can i count how many cards ive discarded over the round?

[obsidian pagoda]

do you want to change the texture of ace of spades to that ingame?

like not in the menu

[red flower]

yes, you need to use main_end and a Sprite object

[cyan lagoon]

you could use the discard cardarea and get it's length

[obsidian pagoda]

Trajectory moment
When blind is selected, destroy a random consumable in your possesion and add it's sell value to xmult

[cyan lagoon]

yeah, this is exactly what you need

#G.discard.cards should work

[midnight coyote]

do editions support calculate functions

[daring fern]

Yes.

[cyan lagoon]

should

[midnight coyote]

okay

i assumed so but i didn’t see any documentation for it

[wintry solar]

almost everything supports calculate functions

[red flower]

oh i want to see if i can make mods have a global calculate

i need to see what victin wanted

[midnight coyote]

    
calculate = function (self,card,context)
        if context.joker_main then
            if CHAR.FUNC.negative_event_proc(G.GAME.Risk or 0) == false then
                local victim = card
                if not victim then
                    return
                end -- Safety check

                victim.getting_sliced = true
                G.GAME.joker_buffer = G.GAME.joker_buffer - 1

                -- Store reference in local variable for closure
                local dissolve_target = victim
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    trigger = "immediate",
                    blockable = false,
                    func = function()
                        if dissolve_target and dissolve_target.start_dissolve then
                            dissolve_target:start_dissolve()
                        end
                        G.GAME.joker_buffer = 0
                        return true
                    end,
                }))
            else
                return {
                    xmult = self.config.extra.granted_mult
                }
            end
        end
    end

okay

[wintry solar]

I think mod objects themselves and stakes are the only ones missing now

[midnight coyote]

so why does this not work

[wintry solar]

shouldn't be difficult to implement those

[midnight coyote]

its not getting to the xmult part

also card.ability does not work for some reason

[red flower]

yeah i think the problem with mod objects is probably the timing

it's hard to specify like with areas

[red flower]

can u post a screenshot pls

[midnight coyote]

of what

[red flower]

it's hard to read on phone

[midnight coyote]

oh

[red flower]

ty

[wintry solar]

I think it would just follow decks and blinds, right?

[red flower]

I mean that's the easiest solution

[hard mica]

yeah i guess or just add a custom card next to it

idk how to do it tho

[red flower]

can i see negative_event_proc

[spice wadi]

quite a few mods already do this, like garbshit for example

[midnight coyote]

oh wiat

wait

[spice wadi]

so you could see what that mod does

[midnight coyote]

nvm

thought i did smtn

carry on

[red flower]

does it have to give xmult when risk < 0

[midnight coyote]

risk is never under 0

it's impossible, as the mechanic to alter risk always checks to see if its under 0 or over 1

[red flower]

i dont see it honestly

it probably has to do with card.ability not working

[midnight coyote]

hmm alright

let me change it to get it to show the problem

and ill give the crash log

[wintry solar]

card.ability won't work if this is an edition

it's card.edition

[midnight coyote]

ohhh

is it still context.joker_main

oh hold on

[wintry solar]

what's the edition on?

[midnight coyote]

im just seeing what cryptid is doing

[midnight coyote]

a joker, or playing card

it can be either

[wintry solar]

if context.pre_joker or (context.main_scoring and context.cardarea == G.play) then

use this

actually, use post_joker

that'll be correct for xmult

[midnight coyote]

got it

works now

[scarlet imp]

do you guys know if I can use context.context just anywhere?
trying to spawn tags the same way anaglyph deck does and the context doesn't seem to get triggered

[daring fern]

You can only use context in calculate.

[scarlet imp]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.context == "eval" and G.GAME.last_blind and G.GAME.last_blind.boss     then
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            func = function()
                add_tag(Tag("tag_double"))
                play_sound("generic1", 0.9 + math.random() * 0.1, 0.8)
                play_sound("holo1", 1.2 + math.random() * 0.1, 0.4)
                return true
            end
        }))
    end
end

here's the calculate for this joker

[red flower]

yeah that's for decks only afaik

[scarlet imp]

mannnn

[red flower]

use context.end_of_round and not context.game_over and context.main_eval and G.GAME.blind.boss

[scarlet imp]

I tried something similar earlier, it seems like the end_of_round context has some unintended behavior when used in this way because the effect procs multiple times. I get given about 15 tags lol

trying this version now

[scarlet imp]

this worked, thank you

[red flower]

end_of_round happens with individual and with repetition too, that's why you use main_eval

[pure salmon]

+4 Mult for every Joker to the left of this one (Currently +0 Mult)
i want a Joker with this effect. i know how it'd work in calculate but the displayed Mult wouldn't update when you move the Joker around

[latent raven]

Help I want the joker to add a X0.8 mult (it removes mult) but instead it adds 0.8 to the mult.

[faint yacht]

Just xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult .

[latent raven]

OH

I see what I did wrong.
Thank you

[hybrid shadow]

did you use loc_vars in your code

[glad osprey]

fuck this one line of code in particular

bitch would win in the world championship hide and seek game

[pure salmon]

yes, but it wouldn't matter, would it? if i'm only evaluating a new mult value in joker_main then it won't update until that code is run. i was asking of there was a context or something for when a joker is moved around

[daring fern]

You would use update

[pure salmon]

feels like a waste to have that code run every frame when it does nothing in 99.9% of them

[daring fern]

There are other ways?

[hard mica]

trying to find in the code how they did it but cant find it at all

[crisp coral]

the description does not update until you recreate the ui by rehovering in the joker

[latent raven]

Is there a way where I can force a joker to always be on the very right joker slot?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[latent raven]

Is there a documentation on the github where I can look into?

[wintry solar]

Do the updating in loc vars too

You are very correct that it would be a waste in update

[hard mica]

is there a way to hide a joker ? im tryin gto make a special card just for the title but its not a real joker so i want to hide it

[daring fern]

no_collection = true I think.

[wintry solar]

You mean from the collection?

[hard mica]

yeah and in game

[hard mica]

in calculate ?

[latent raven]

please?

[wintry solar]

In the joker initialisation

Also need to set the in pool function to return false

[misty gorge]

How could I create a deck that only has for example 5 cards?

[hard mica]

wdym?

[daring fern]

You remove 47 of them in apply.

[misty gorge]

Ah, okie

[sturdy compass]

There is documentation. Look in the wiki tab

Or are you talking about your specific use case?

[latent raven]

about mine yeah

[scarlet imp]

can someone provide the documentation on how to implement patches?

[red flower]

https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector?tab=readme-ov-file#patches

[vast night]

hi again. how do i count a card as discarded whne its played?

[daring fern]

How would a card be counted as discarded?

What are causes of the game hard crashing when reaching the main menu?

[hard mica]

btw wdym?

[spice wadi]

from line 114 in garbpack.lua for garbshit
you can hook the Game.main_menu function to add a card to the title area (G.title_top:emplace(your_card))

[vast night]

sorry from missing context: i wanna make a joker that counts played cards as discarded

and played too

[hard mica]

im just seeing this

[misty gorge]

Uhh how do I remove a playing card from the deck

I can't seem to figure it out

[faint yacht]

https://github.com/Gainumki/GARBSHIT/blob/6f227ef8043fd51fb998c2dfb542e212b0b217d0/garbpack.lua#L143-L160

[daring fern]

card:start_dissolve()

[daring fern]

You would probably call this: in context.individual

[daring fern]

‎

[red flower]

I had the game crash when it finished loading idk if that's the same

[long sun]

quick question, how do you check if a card is a consumable?

[daring fern]

if card.ability.consumeable I think.

[scarlet imp]

is it possible to disable the effect of a deck? like disabling the Anaglyph Deck or Plasma Deck's effects?

[spice wadi]

shit i forgot to update 😭
im using an older version because i had the download page open to get the new one but forgot to actually do it

[long sun]

thanks ^^

[faint yacht]

Sounds like a hook with a condition check.

[vast night]

what is effects exactly?

[daring fern]

It's what it returns.

[scarlet imp]

this is a kind of patch right?

[daring fern]

So an empty table.

[daring fern]

No.

[faint yacht]

Hook.

[vast night]

so i just put it there without defining?

[long sun]

mm, didn't work

[vast night]

like just put the "effects" without making any local effects = 'effect'

[long sun]

if context.selling_card and card.ability.consumeable then
      card.ability.extra.current_hands = card.ability.extra.current_hands + card.ability.extra.added_hands
      return { message = localize("k_upgrade_ex"), colour = G.C.FILTER }
    end```

ah wait no ignore

dfkjgnkdjfng

[daring fern]

It should be context.card

[long sun]

aware

[vast night]

bump

[daring fern]

if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
    SMODS.calculate_context({discard = true, other_card = context.other_card, full_hand = context.full_hand})
end

[vast night]

yea i have it like this rn but it wont work

[daring fern]

What jokers are you trying it with?

[last sentinel]

Any clue as to why this ownership would crash when using the fool? crash log says that last_tarot_planet is being set to a table instead of a string but im not modifiying tarot_planet

[red flower]

name is not a table

and you're setting it as a table

[last sentinel]

well yeah that would cause the exact problem huh

lmfao thanks

[vast night]

hi can anyone tell me why my card dosent count as discarded?

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
            SMODS.calculate_context({discard = true, other_card = context.other_card, full_hand = context.full_hand})
        end
    end,

[latent raven]

Could I also make it move to the mostright position before scoring?

[wintry solar]

What are you trying to do?

[rare moss]

Does anybody know how I can make a joker retrigger itself? And then also allow that retrigger to retrigger it again? I'm trying to make like a weird missprint where it can trigger X amount of times

[faint yacht]

You'd probably want a nested table of extra = { ... } where the depth of said table is rolled for by the Joker, then return said table.

[daring fern]

You can have a joker retrigger itself as long as it is not retriggering joker retriggers.

[spice wadi]

if you want to have it return multiple effects (like multiple xmults), you can use SMODS.calculate_effect in a loop instead

if its a simple effect

[rare moss]

So when you retrigger the calculate can't repeat the retriggering effect?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[spice wadi]

its what i used for my xmult joker that triggers a varying number of times

instead of nested tables or retriggering the entire joker

[daring fern]

Yes, but usually you want xmult to go after everything else.

[rare moss]

My ideas was just a joker with +Mult that has a 1/2 chance to retrigger. so it could either trigger once or if ur very lucky trigger 5 times

Cus in my head the retrigger would allow it to roll the 1/2 chance again for another trigger and so on

[vast night]

im trying to count scored cards as also discarded

[midnight coyote]

how do i fetch current hand size

whats the variable

[daring fern]

G.hand.config.card_limit?

[midnight coyote]

thanks

[keen totem]

how do people get the mod name on a joker cycling to show stuff like Idea: X, Code: Y, Art: Z, instead of always being the name of the mod?

[midnight coyote]

how can i check for all jokers of a certain objecttype

oh wait

i think i might know this one

[keen totem]

this was someone elses idea and i want to credit them without taking up space in the description

cryptid and polterworx do this (only mods ive actually played enough to notice it on)

idk if its custom coded or an SMODS thing

[daring fern]

?

[keen totem]

i cant see any of that

[daring fern]

https://github.com/SpectralPack/Cryptid/blob/main/lib/overrides.lua#L561 ?

[keen totem]

if theres one thing ive learned while modding balatro

uh

idk

yea see

idk what any of that code means

or how to alter it to the credits i need

[daring fern]

You just change it so where ever it says cry_credits you change it to something else.

[midnight coyote]

this never increments the xmult

[glass scaffold]

<@&1133519078540185692> AY WE GOT ONE

Oh. nvm.

[exotic hedge]

damn I missed it didn’t I

[keen gorge]

Gotcha

[quick scarab]

I tired to make it but it didn't work out

[obtuse silo]

i kinda wanna go back to vanilla balatro
is there any way i can do that?

[daring fern]

Uninstall your mods.

[glass scaffold]

My way would be:

Make a new folder in the same level as your mods folder (name it Mod Shelf or whatever)

Move your mods there.

[obtuse silo]

so basically
just move the mods into a folder that the steamodded won't accesss

[glass scaffold]

Yep.

I do that for Balatro MP matches.

[daring fern]

Or you could look at the second pinned message in https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1209506360987877408

[obtuse silo]

nah dw it's worked

just
wanted to ask around to make sure i don't do anything rash

tryna go for a completionist++ file

[quick scarab]

I'm trying to make a Joker where it adds +50 chips per Gold seal on deck, but it doesn't work, does anyone know the solution

[daring fern]

context.other_card doesn't exist, you should be using playing_card

[quick scarab]

I tried that

but I don't know how the game identify seals

[daring fern]

Also it's G.P_SEALS.Gold

[quick scarab]

let me check

[west prism]

is there a cardarea that only refers to hards held in hand? G.hand seems to include played cards

can't really find a cardarea list to see all the options

[daring fern]

It is G.hand.cards

[west prism]

oh dammit it's the same I asked last time lmao

ty ty

[keen totem]

how do i get other .lua files besides my main to run?

[daring fern]

SMODS.load_file("path/from/root")()?

[pure salmon]

assert(SMODS.load_file(path))() iirc. my mod uses a recursive file-loading script from basil_squared and i find it really helpful. ask her about it maybe

[keen totem]

telling me its an invalid escape sequence

[red flower]

the () goes outside the assert

[pure salmon]

fixed. sorry for spreading misinformation online it will happen again

[keen totem]

SMODS.load_file("C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\Mods\CGNik\overrides.lua") is an "invalid escape sequence"

[daring fern]

Root mod folder as in your mod folder.

[keen totem]

ah

[red flower]

also no \

[keen totem]

so just SMODS.load_file("CGNik/overrides.lua")

or no CGNik/

[daring fern]

Yes.

[keen totem]

also something

i copied the cryptid thing for the mod badges

it isnt working

obv i need to change some stuff

but i dont know what i have to change

[strange wasp]

Hi. I have a question. How do i put smods into vsc? I have the sumneko lua Extension, but Whenever i input smods, it underlines it.

[pure salmon]

i would also like to know this lol

[red flower]

read this and the next couple of messages #💻・modding-dev message

[strange wasp]

Please note, I'm using the outdated YT video on how to create a joker. Found on the balatro modding guide

[red flower]

maybe i linked to the one below lol but around there

[pure salmon]

i have the full smods folder and the lua dump in my workspace but still no dice

[red flower]

yeah it says that there, apparently putting them in the workspace doesn't work

[keen totem]

whats with X: tags and not being able to use spaces

[red flower]

thunk

use B:

[quick scarab]

it didn't work

[daring fern]

No, I meant for the info_queue

[wintry solar]

seals aren't an enhancement

[quick scarab]

it didn't work can you be more specific?

[daring fern]

You need to do if playing_card.seal == "Gold"

[quick scarab]

where

like where do I put it

[normal crest]

Instead of has_enhancement

[normal crest]

Your loc_vars if statement should be if G.playing_cards then, as it is it'd crash in collection

[quick scarab]

like this?

[red flower]

oops this is a vanilla remade typo

[quick scarab]

oh yeah

[red flower]

ill fix it in a bit

[quick scarab]

I using vanilla remade as a base

[red flower]

i know that's my coding style :3

[quick scarab]

wait

wait a minute

are there any other typos on that code?

[red flower]

not that i see

[quick scarab]

it seen like stone joker works fine on vanilla remade

[red flower]

yeah G.playing_card is also a thing but that means the description may sometimes display wrong values

[quick scarab]

For me it is displaying +nil chips

On my card

[red flower]

what's the config

and the description text

[hybrid shadow]

is there a way for a joker to check what the base mult is for a played hand type before scoring gets added

[red flower]

yes, it should be somewhere inside G.GAME.hands[context.scoring_name]

[quick scarab]

More or less the same as the stone card

With the the () part being from the vannila description

I can't acess it right now

[wise terrace]

hi I've recently been dabbling in modding balatro but I'm having a hard time understanding context.individual and context.repitition_only

[daring fern]

context.repetition_only does basically nothing and context.individual is when playing cards are scoring.

[wise terrace]

so if individual is set, other_card is the playing card being scored yh?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[wise terrace]

is individual also set during retriggers?

[wise terrace]

thank you

[wise terrace]

I'd assume yes

[daring fern]

Yes, but it's not used for retriggers.

Thats context.repetition

[wise terrace]

ohh, I see, repitition is only set if the card is being retriggered yh?

[daring fern]

No, it's like context.individual but used for retriggers and not doing things on playing cards.

It's still true if no retriggers are called.

[twin vale]

Hello

Is it possible to alter shop card spawning behaviour of a specific class of cards?

[cyan lagoon]

i'm sorry can you rephrase that?

[wise terrace]

oh now I don't understand, its set initially? is it for giving joker effects to cards (like blood stone and onyx agate) and individual is for stuff like hiker?

[daring fern]

No, individual is for both of those, repetition is for things like mime and hack.

[cyan lagoon]

question is there a way to make SMODS.add_card silent?

[twin vale]

Right. I'm tinkering with the Steammodded framework (basically why I bought Balatro)
To specify, I'd like to enhance the behaviour of Telescope so that the first Planet card generated in the shop's main rack corresponds to that of your most played hand.

[daring fern]

Yes, then.

[wise terrace]

oh, thanks for the clarification

[cyan lagoon]

ok, i personally dont know how to do that, but First Round Joker mod does something similar. you can go see how that works.

[wise terrace]

i think they mean something like making rares spawn more or less often and similar effects

[twin vale]

You mean the vanilla behaviour of deterministically generating one Joker booster pack on the first shop?

[cyan lagoon]

the mod replaces the first card in the shop with a joker of your choice

[twin vale]

Oh, right, sorry.

[daring fern]

You should probably hook create_card_for_shop

[twin vale]

Thanks for the name of the routine.
I imagine I can override it directly without using a take_ownership helper, correct?

[daring fern]

No, you need to hook it not overwrite it.

[agile dew]

is has_enhancement well implemented here?

[hushed field]

Yes

[keen loom]

made my stickers and seals

[agile dew]

oh i like them!

[agile dew]

this pops up :,)

for both checks

[hushed field]

Those are very cute!

[hushed field]

It's not your enhancement checks that breaks, you need to be a bit more specific in defining your context!

[keen loom]

for anyone not aware with cookie run, kingdom specifically has an element system

[hushed field]

There are plenty of times where context.cardarea will be G.play, but context.other_card will be empty

[agile dew]

wait what?

so the i have to add the context that is during scoring?

cause it calculates directly after the cards are placed in g.play?

[hushed field]

Yes. Calculate is called by any calculate effect, which means it's called when a card is obtained, selected, drawn, discarded, when the shop is rerolled, when another card triggers, etc.

You need to narrow down the contexts. There's documentation for it on the smods' wiki!

[agile dew]

ill try to fix it

thanks!

[scarlet imp]

Great stuff! wish I could make art like this, my Jokers need some work lol

[agile dew]

im assuming they come ordered from first to last in the scoring calc right?

[hushed field]

I think so, but I'm not entirely sure. The main thing to remember, though, is that each context documented is a separate call to the function

So you can have multiple contexts and they can be ordered in any way in your own code

[red flower]

the scoring ones are ordered yes

[keen loom]

you just need motivation to do that. you can redo the art anytime

i struggle more on coding rather than drawing

[scarlet imp]

yup I focused on getting them implemented first, just finished them all actually. couldn't get my original ideas to work for some of them because they weren't feasible for my level of modding capabilities right now, but I can change the mod later if I need

[agile dew]

somehow the crash got fixed but now this part doesnt work

it just skips the if entirely

[red flower]

is this a joker?

[agile dew]

yes

[keen loom]

drawing all the cards would take too much time for me, so i might start making placeholders first to test my mod ideas. just making one new tarot made me jump around like hell

[red flower]

main_scoring is for enhancements

jokers use joker_main

[agile dew]

but its the cards that are giving the xmult, not the joker

i think?

[red flower]

ok then you want context.individual

[sudden cave]

Does anyone know if there's a way to detect when a tab (created using create_tabs) is changed? I see that it has an opt_callback parameter but it doesn't seem to actually be calling the function

[scarlet imp]

made this placeholder art for my jokers so I could test them. I got a bit carried away making some of them pretty though, I'm particularly fond of the Abandoned Deck design

[scarlet storm]

how do I add custom text under the rarity? I wanna add art credit under the rarity as done in this screenshot

[red flower]

look at set_badges
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Joker

[agile dew]

wait you cant update loc_vars in the calculate function?

[scarlet storm]

no? what are you trying to do

[sudden cave]

Wait nevermind, I looked into the source and despite having the parameter the code to actually use it doesn't exist, so I'll just add it myself with a patch

[zealous glen]

you don't update the value in the return

you update before it

[agile dew]

oh shit it works!

thanks!

and can i stop a card held in hand from doing an effect?

like steel cards giving x1.5 mult

[outer basalt]

Hm. how would one go about making a new card area?

[daring fern]

Debuff it?

[red flower]

depends for what purpose

[agile dew]

but i dont wanna permanently debuff them

[daring fern]

Temporarily debuff it?

[outer basalt]

I kinda want cards with an active ability. I don't think I can add a 'use' button to jokers so my next idea is to have a consumable to go with the card. These consumbles would go in the new card area

kinda like consumables 2 but I don't want it to be targeted by certain things

[red flower]

you can add a use button to jokers i have like 6 different ones in my mod

[outer basalt]

oh shit really

[red flower]

yeah

[outer basalt]

how

teach me your ways magic man

[zealous glen]

Check how I do Zodiacs in the dev version of my mod

[red flower]

you need to hook either the sell_an_use_buttons function or card: highlight

[outer basalt]

oooo

thank you both

[red flower]

i would tell you to check out mine but the 6 different types of buttons make that a bit convoluted lol

[outer basalt]

ah

[limber blaze]

i would also tell you to check out mine but the function that does it is pure spaghetti code

[outer basalt]

😭

delish

[scarlet imp]

i would also tell you to check out mine but I don't actually have any buttons

[zealous glen]

I would tell you to check N's

[outer basalt]

at this point im in a recursive cycle of checking

[limber blaze]

its probably better to check theirs than mine, my code for it is kinda unreadable because i havent cleaned it up yet

[red flower]

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

[signal rose]

N you got any idea of how to do this?

[gentle rain]

for some reason this isn't resetting each round

and im not sure why

[red flower]

probably give me a sec

[red flower]

have you tried putting the bottom R node outside the top R node?

[signal rose]

what im intending to do is sort of have the column node then r nodes within it for each row, with multiple rows of inputs, i could put the text node and palette_create_text_input into a row node of their own for the same effect?

[red flower]

the problem with that is that R inside R does nothing

what you can do is put those in a C and change the bottom R to a C

[signal rose]

testing now

[wintry solar]

iirc you can nest same type nodes if you need to play with colours, it's just not particularly useful

[red flower]

yeah

[signal rose]

works near perfectly, the paste button is ever so slightly up from it but honestly this is so much better than anything ive managed

acc that might be the box element

yeah it was the box element, looks perfect now, thank you so much

[outer basalt]

where do i look? I found the zodiacs but im not sure whats making it work

[gentle rain]

it seems like SMODS.current_mod.reset_game_globals(run_start) just isnt being called at all for some reason, wtf

[zealous glen]

There's a lovely file

[outer basalt]

okay i like this a lot but the idea of codin g it makes me want to cry 😭 alas

[gentle rain]

this is so frustrating i have no clue why it bricked

it worked fine before

did SMODS.current_mod.reset_game_globals(run_start) get updated??

[red flower]

not as far as i know

[gentle rain]

blehhh

does anything look wrong with it

[outer basalt]

is run start for. the start of runs or for rounds

[red flower]

runs

[gentle rain]

run_start means that it runs at the start of the run as well as each round

...which it does neither of those

i have prints set up to tell me when it triggers, and it never triggers

[outer basalt]

hm. i have it in for one of my jokers and it only does run starts

[gentle rain]

that would be init_game_object

full code

[outer basalt]

let me see what i did

[red flower]

testing ancient joker in vanilla remade and it works fine in latest smods

[outer basalt]

OKay ya you were right 😭

[gentle rain]

im referencing castle in modded vanilla and it seems fine

like i see no issues

[outer basalt]

what were you doing last before it broke?

[red flower]

you're not overwriting it somewhere else or something?

[gentle rain]

the only other SMODS.current_mod.reset_game_globals(run_start) i have is this

[red flower]

well

[gentle rain]

oh

[red flower]

try deleting that

[gentle rain]

does having more than one brick it

i see

that makes sense

[red flower]

yes, it's just one for the whole mod

you can hook it tho

[gentle rain]

eh, ill just throw it at the beginning of my main.lua lol

yea works now

ty

[red flower]

you mean this?

[wintry solar]

no, not that, though that also needs fixing to use poll_edition

[red flower]

oh just poll_edition not using it then?

[wintry solar]

this bit yeah

I don't think get_current_pool supports editions at all though iirc

[red flower]

it doesn't yeah that's why I asked

[umbral zodiac]

anyone know if the balatro font is monospaced or not

[red flower]

wait why is create_card_for_shop in UI_definitions

thats dumb

[wintry solar]

because it creates the UI stuff for it

[golden lake]

The actual font itself is a monospace font called m6x11 https://managore.itch.io/m6x11

It's a monospace font

[umbral zodiac]

so it is
hell yeah

[golden lake]

I'm unsure if Balatro preserves the monospace in kerning

[primal robin]

Of course it isn't

[umbral zodiac]

minesweeper in a joker will look a lot more eye.good. then

[umbral zodiac]

ah

[red flower]

that's a separate function 😭

[golden lake]

But you can see

[umbral zodiac]

well that is a shame if it isn't because minesweeper is usually aligned

[golden lake]

again, you can check

and you can always learn the forbidden dark arts

balatro ui...

and just shove a ui object into main_end of the joker description

[red flower]

minesweeper balatro sounds like a job for aiko

[golden lake]

It's how I do my evil UI crimes

[golden lake]

let them do it if they want to, aiko doesn't own the concept of sillyness

[red flower]

thats not what i said lol

[golden lake]

let them eat cake or whatever

[keen totem]

you are not marie antoinette

[golden lake]

but yeah you can likely use Balatro's evil UI system to draw a minesweeper grid

[paper zealot]

You can see right there in the preview that it's not monospaced. The width of the ls and is is totally different from the ns and ms

[golden lake]

I'm pretty sure that when I use it in writing it's actually monospaced

Not in Balatro

But outside of it

[umbral zodiac]

im a silly girl do you think im going to NOT put minesweeper in balatro

[golden lake]

Because I've used the Daniel Linssen fonts in the past

[paper zealot]

The char widths are different in the font file, it would only appear monospaced if whatever program you were using forced it to be

[red flower]

i will play it

[vale glen]

Minesweeper balatro :o

[wintry solar]

is this just a static image or is it a dynamically changing piece of ui?

[vale glen]

Got this line of code working yesterday. It's not perfect, but it works with vanilla Planets and the ones in Cryptid that keep a hand_type value in their config table. Hooray.

Figuring out v.config.center.config took a long while, using many print() statements.

[primal robin]

Is this scrollbar working one?

[wind steppe]

How would I get Jimbo to show up when I lose a run under a specific circumstance (I can check for the circumstance already) even if I've already won the run and I'm in Endless?

I don't want him to be there if the condition isn't meant

[daring fern]

Patch here:

[stark geode]

how do pools work

and how do i remove things from them

[wheat pulsar]

hey, how can i make my owns C:tarot, or C:money, etc?

[daring fern]

You add to LOC_COLOURS I think.

[keen totem]

is there a set for consumables as a whole?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[keen totem]

just so i can make a random consumable of any type

[daring fern]

SMODS.add_card({set = "Consumeables"})

[keen totem]

also how do i check if a card is a consumable

[daring fern]

if card.ability.consumeable I think.

[keen totem]

alr

time to test

ok so i got 2 problems

how do i find the rarity of a joker

[sturdy compass]

Check how Baseball Card does it

[daring fern]

card.config.center.rarity

[keen totem]

yea uh

didnt work

[wind steppe]

wtf why i am crashing

also i cant see half the crash in balatro itself

[keen totem]

if context.selling_card then
            local points = 0

            if context.card.ability.consumeable then
                points = 5
            elseif card.ability.set == "Joker" then
                if card.config.center.rarity == 1 then
                    points = 10
                elseif card.config.center.rarity == 2 then
                    points = 15
                elseif card.config.center.rarity == 3 then
                    points = 25
                elseif card.config.center.rarity == 4 then
                    points = 100
                end
            end

if its a joker, its always rarity 2 for some reason

[daring fern]

Your checking card not context.card

[keen totem]

ah

another weird thing

[glad bough]

meow

[keen totem]

SMODS.add_card({set = "Consumeables",soulable = true})

puts the cards into my joker slots

which makes

no sense

[unborn bay]

you need to specify the area

[keen totem]

Default values are determined based on set.

[sage crater]

Are you able to change the visible name of a joker based on a returned variable?

Like can you do “#1# apples” and that updates to 3 apples, 4 apples, etc?

[unborn bay]

i believe the base "Consumables" set doesn't account for that

[keen totem]

i think it should

[wild escarp]

@red flower Really sorry if I'm bothering you, but are you able to help me out with my joker?

[unborn bay]

theres consumables that go on different areas though

[red flower]

depends

[unborn bay]

like mine

[keen totem]

in the base game?

and also, thats the reason why area exists

to change the default

but the default should still be where they usually go

i can put a joker in my consumables, but that doesnt mean they should go there by default

@daring fern with modded placement

[wintry solar]

consumeables do automatically go to the consumeable area???

[keen totem]

like using area =

[keen totem]

not for me ig

[wintry solar]

you're using set wrong

[keen totem]

how so?

[wintry solar]

Consumeables isn't a set

[keen totem]

someone said it was

[wild escarp]

I've been working on that joker from yesterday so it works properly with hologram, and I think I've gotten somewhere. The only issue I have now is that it only ever increments hologram up by one, instead of once for every card added to deck.

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.before then
        local new_cards = {}
        for i = 1, 2 do
            for k, v in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
                if v.seal or v.edition or next(SMODS.get_enhancements(v)) then
                    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                        func = function()
                            G.playing_card = (G.playing_card and G.playing_card + 1) or 1
                            local copy_card = copy_card(v, nil, nil, G.playing_card)
                            copy_card:add_to_deck()
                            G.deck.config.card_limit = G.deck.config.card_limit + 1
                            table.insert(G.playing_cards, copy_card)
                            G.hand:emplace(copy_card)
                            copy_card.states.visible = nil
                            copy_card:start_materialize()
                            new_cards[#new_cards + 1] = copy_card
                            return true
                        end
                    }))
                end
            end
        end
        SMODS.calculate_context({ playing_card_added = true, cards = { new_cards } })
        return {
            message = localize('k_copied_ex'),
            colour = G.C.CHIPS
        }
    end
    if context.destroy_card and context.cardarea == G.play and 
    (context.destroy_card.seal or context.destroy_card.edition or next(SMODS.get_enhancements(context.destroy_card))) then
        return {
            remove = true
        }
    end
end

[keen totem]

this fella right here

[daring fern]

It worked for me.

[unborn bay]

consumeables is generally more of a Pool

[keen totem]

anyways, i need to make a random consumable

like
