[stiff quiver]

is thhere a way to make a joker that activates a random boss blind ability?

[thorn furnace]

How possible is this without patches

[unborn bay]

hook set ability then multiply ability table values recursively

[thorn furnace]

i really need to just learn how to concretely hook/patch things

I keep bumping into it

[pale holly]

Hello, so i've tried to my joker only add a wheel of fortune but it can create them even if there's no space left in consumables, i tried to use something like G.consumable isn't something that exist apparently, G.consumables either as i tried, any idea maybe ?

        if context.joker_main then
            if math.random(1, 5) == 1 and #G.consumable.cards < G.consumables.config.card_limit then
                SMODS.add_card{
                    set = 'Tarot',
                    key = 'c_wheel_of_fortune',
                    skip_materialize = false,
                }
            end```

[thorn furnace]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/src/jokers.lua#L4564 you can look at Cartomancer for reference since that creates a tarot card every time a Blind is selected

[pale holly]

Thanks !

[clever rose]

is there a variable that stores the current mult value of the scoring hand?

[thorn furnace]

This is the second time now that I've made a new type of thing and the name's just refused to cooperate ;-;
It worked with my rarity by putting it inside of the globalization misc->dictionary and misc->labels but it didn't work here

[thorn furnace]

it's just called mult

[timid star]

i am hella confused on what's causing this

why is it giving x2 mult multiple times??

[clever rose]

ah ok

[timid star]

it's supposed to be doing nothing!!

[clever rose]

i was trying to compare the hand mult to if it was a square number

which would activate a joker

[keen totem]

how do i get if a card has a certain enhancement?

nvm i got it

SMODS.has_enhancement(card, "m_modprefix_key")

[timid star]

oh, some mod hooked onto the eternal sticker??

[keen loom]

how to make a joker unsellable?

[daring fern]

Look at how Eternal works.

[keen loom]

where?

[keen totem]

my beloved

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/tree/main/src

[daring fern]

It seems to not show that part or if it does it's not in stickers.lua

[burnt quartz]

How I can use the pseudorandom func?

[daring fern]

pseudorandom("seed", min, max)

[keen totem]

arg1 is a seed, make it something like "prefix_name"
arg2 is min
arg3 is max

needed to make seeds' randoms be the same

[burnt quartz]

for example:

pseudorandom("aply_seal_chance", 0, 4)

I want to get a 1/4 chance of aply a seal

that's right?

[keen totem]

min should be 1 then

not 0

i would do "[yourModPrefix]_ApplySealChance" as the seed tho

something

why shouldnt the min be 1

literally why

[burnt quartz]

If it is 1, isn't at least one seal always applied?

[daring fern]

No, it would be if pseudorandom("modprefix_apply_seal_chance") < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 4

[keen totem]

what is G.playing_cards

[burnt quartz]

Is all cards in the deck

I want to declare the applye_seal_chance in config.extra in the Joker, is that ok?

I got a error trying to read from there

[daring fern]

Log?

[thorn furnace]

bump

[burnt quartz]

config = { 
        extra = { 
            mult = 0,
            mult_per_card = 7,
            seal_apply_chance = 0.25,
            color ='Red',
            odds = 4,
        } 
    },

[daring fern]

What is that line?

[burnt quartz]

if pseudorandom("modprefix_apply_seal_chance") < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / card.ability.extra.odds

[daring fern]

What object is this?

[burnt quartz]

The joker calculate, inside the calculate func

[keen loom]

just realized that e_negative displays as "+1 Joker slot", not "+1 consumable slot"

[keen totem]

other mods have this issue, so i wouldnt bother fixing it

something

do you know how infoqueues work

[keen loom]

yeah

[keen totem]

im talking to something

[daring fern]

Yes, and you can get the "+1 consumable slot" version of negative.

[keen totem]

is e_negative that?

[daring fern]

No, it's { key = "e_negative_consumable", set = "Edition", config = { extra = 1 } }

[keen totem]

then why are you ? ing the fact that e_negative is +1 Joker slot

that is what it shows

[daring fern]

I didn't understand what they were referring to.

[keen totem]

then use words

? means several things as a react

which is why you really cant just react people to talk

[keen loom]

agreed, too ambiguous

[keen totem]

yea

[thorn furnace]

mom dad please stop fighting

[keen totem]

anyways

i have this nice function i use for my mod

im like 90% sure smods already has it

but i already have it in place in too many situations for me to feel like changing it

yea its just find_card

but i like my version better

[red flower]

what does your version do

[keen totem]

it just gives you first card instead of a list

also i like my args better

[keen loom]

is it possible to make a consumable card retain after use? (it'll be destroyed after the hand is played)

[keen totem]

would in_pool consider a table of size 0 to be false?

[red flower]

no

[wild escarp]

How would I make a voucher allow wof to give negative edition?

[daring fern]

You would either patch/take ownership of wheel of fortune or hook poll_edition

[wild escarp]

Is there some good examples of taking ownership out there?

Or would hooking or patching be easier?

[daring fern]

The easiest would probably be hooking poll_edition

[wild escarp]

I don't even know how I'd begin to do that.

[daring fern]

It would be something like: ```lua
local oldpolledition = poll_edition
function poll_edition(_key, _mod, _no_neg, _guaranteed, _options)
if _key == 'wheel_of_fortune' then _no_neg = false end
end

[faint yacht]

Just add the check for if the voucher is redeemed as well.

if G.GAME.used_vouchers['v_modprefix_theaxolotl'] == true

[wild escarp]

Thanks!

[hybrid shadow]

is there a way for a joker to tell when a card is flipped face-down?

[wild escarp]

Is there an easy way to test vouchers with debugplus?

[manic rune]

go to shop, press 3 on a voucher in collection

[red flower]

card.facing == "back"

if you mean at the moment it is flipped then no without hooking

[hybrid shadow]

would i need to run a loop to check the main hand for it if i wanted to have jokers that worked "when a card is flipped"?

[daring fern]

Wouldn't it be better to hook Card:flip() for that effect?

[red flower]

in my mod i just hook card:flip and create a context

[hybrid shadow]

how do i hook smth

[manic rune]

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

[hybrid shadow]

and how would i create a context with it

[manic rune]

SMODS.calculate_context({context_name = true})

[wintry solar]

Why would you want a version of a function with less functionality?

[keen totem]

I don't feel like changing it in my code

[wintry solar]

That doesn’t answer the question, you said you like yours better

I’m just interested why

[keen loom]

does vanilla game not have xchips?

[spice wadi]

it does not but i think smods adds it

[native zinc]

can i do stuff to the played cards after end of round

with contexts

[hybrid shadow]

i get the feeling i misunderstood smth but there wasnt much i feel like there was to understand

[native zinc]

actually its prolly just context.end_of_round

[burnt quartz]

inside the calc func my config.extra variables are nil

[native zinc]

and context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play ???

[red flower]

G.play doesn't exist at end of round

[spice wadi]

should be card.ability.extra.var_name

[spice wadi]

whats the goal here

like SMODS.calculate_context is to create a context no?

[burnt quartz]

Actually is referenced as you say and still don't working

[spice wadi]

show the full code

[red flower]

this is what i do

[hybrid shadow]

like this then?

[red flower]

no

[spice wadi]

look at what the other guy sent above

read it all and learn what each part does, hooking is very useful

[red flower]

this is the more simplified version but it can get fucked up by animations and stuff

[keen loom]

ok, i'm trying to use xchips, but it's dividing them???

[spice wadi]

show the code

[keen loom]

SMODS.Joker {
    key = 'bonustime',
    rarity = "crb_effect",
    --atlas = 'commons',
    --pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    --soul_pos = { x = 1, y = 0 },
    blueprint_compat = true,
    eternal_compat = true,
    perishable_compat = true,
    config = {
        unlocked = true,
        discovered = true,
        extra = {
            xchips = 0.03,
            xmult = 0.02,
        }
    },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        info_queue[#info_queue+1] = { set = "Other", key = "effect_info" }
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xchips, card.ability.extra.xmult}}
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context) 
        -- X0.03 chips, X0.02 mult
        if context.joker_main then
            return {
                xchips = card.ability.extra.xchips,
                xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
            }
        end
        -- destroys itself at end of round
        if context.end_of_round and context.cardarea == G.jokers then
            return {
                message = localize("effect_down"),
                card:start_dissolve()
            }
        end
    end
}```

[red flower]

you're giving X0.03 chips

[normal crest]

Well you're multiplying by 0.03

[spice wadi]

you mightve meant to do 1.03

[normal crest]

Also unlocked and discovered go outside of config

[red flower]

did you get a new instance of the joker or restarted a run before testing?

[burnt quartz]

I started a new run then spawn the joker

[keen loom]

so all jokers that have a decimal xmult is valued 1.x, not 0.x?

[spice wadi]

what line is the error at

[spice wadi]

yeah, if you want to increase

[wintry solar]

What sort of jokers are you referencing by this?

[hybrid shadow]

like this?

[red flower]

yeah

[normal crest]

xmult and xchips will just multiply the amount of mult and chips by the number you passed

[hybrid shadow]

how would i call for the context in a calculate function?

[spice wadi]

^^^
if its below 1 it makes the value smaller

like to get context.flipped?

[normal crest]

Same as usual, if context.flipped then

you might want to put the mod prefix in your context flag to ensure it's unique

[keen loom]

so for this, i'll have to make it x1.3 mult?

[red flower]

context.flipped

[spice wadi]

yes

[hybrid shadow]

like within the calculate contex or within the overall local?

[normal crest]

in the calculate_context call, just do smt like prefix_flipped = self

[hybrid shadow]

alr

is it possible to have a joker make a flipped card no longer face down

[normal crest]

you can flip a card at any time doing other_card:flip()

You'd just have to check if it's facing down before doing that

Which idk if there's an easy way

[red flower]

also if you want your joker to counteract blinds you can just use the smods context.stay_flipped im pretty sure

[hybrid shadow]

i mean the context ahould do that right?

[native zinc]

help . what context

end_of_round and something presumedly but gr ... it doesn't have G.play

[hybrid shadow]

the point of the one im working on rn is to have a 1 in 2 chance of flipping a card back over when it's turned face down

[native zinc]

that or i just rework this joker

[normal crest]

surely end of round has the scoring hand in the context too

[hybrid shadow]

i have another one that gains mult/xmult each time a card is flipped but that's easier i think

[red flower]

no, it's not in scoring

[native zinc]

nope

[normal crest]

Rip

[native zinc]

ye so that's hwy i'm asking

[normal crest]

Mark the first scoring card with a flag in context.before

Then find it in G.playing_cards or smt

[red flower]

thats what i would do yeah

[high sinew]

whats the sizing for art pxl used for suits?

71x95?

[normal crest]

You'd have to remove the flag of every other card each time to ensure only the latest hand played has it

[native zinc]

:despair:
okay that's not actually that bad but smh someone update smods

[red flower]

to do what lol

[wicked leaf]

modding too hard

[normal crest]

to include scoring hand in end of round maybe

[wintry solar]

But the hand has gone by that time

This would be a standard destruction timing check

[keen loom]

how would i make the joker message appear when the card is destroyed? currently, it appears after it's destroyed

[normal crest]

yeah I'm not saying do that, just interpreting what they said

[wintry solar]

Yeah I’m just saying what they should instead 🤣

[keen loom]

anyone knows how to fix this?

[hybrid shadow]

show code

[keen loom]

    key = 'bonustime',
    rarity = "crb_effect",
    --atlas = 'commons',
    --pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    --soul_pos = { x = 1, y = 0 },
    blueprint_compat = false,
    eternal_compat = false,
    perishable_compat = false,
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = true,
    config = {
        extra = {
            xchips = 1.5,
            xmult = 1.2,
        }
    },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        info_queue[#info_queue+1] = { set = "Other", key = "effect_info" }
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xchips - 1, card.ability.extra.xmult - 1}}
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context) 
        -- X1.03 chips, X1.02 mult
        if context.joker_main then
            return {
                xchips = card.ability.extra.xchips,
                xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
            }
        end
        -- destroys itself at end of round
        if context.end_of_round and context.cardarea == G.jokers then
            return {
                message = localize("effect_down"),
                card:start_dissolve()
            }
        end
    end
}```

[daring fern]

Put card:start_dissolve() out of the return.

[wintry solar]

Use SMODS.destroy_cards(card) instead

[red flower]

could we have an argument to make destroy_cards not use an event

i started using it but it messed up my timings

[native zinc]

actually i just realised this joker kinda sucks

i don't need to do this check . i just need to buff the joker

[normal crest]

make the event optional or use a callback function that happens when the card is actually destroyed would prob be better

[wintry solar]

I’d be interested to see how it did that, but I don’t see why it can’t

[red flower]

yeah

[normal crest]

(I haven't used it at all)

[red flower]

i need an event to happen after the start_dissolve event happens for my summoning shenanigans

but if it's an event inside an event it ruins it

[wintry solar]

Can’t you just chain the events?

[red flower]

wdym

[wintry solar]

Put the event for the summoning stuff directly after the destroy cards call

[red flower]

yes thats what i do

[wintry solar]

And that doesn’t work?

[red flower]

rn I'm queuing start_dissolve > my event
if i do destroy_cards > my event it queues start_dissolve after my event

[wintry solar]

But thats not how events work 🤔

[abstract umbra]

im making a custom suit called critters it looks so goofy

[keen loom]

it's crashing

[red flower]

im pretty sure it is how they work

[normal crest]

well what is the crash and the code

no, let me guess, you don't have the SMODS version with destroy_cards

[wintry solar]

Are you putting the destroy cards call in an event?

[red flower]

no, destroy_cards calls start_dissolve in an event

[abstract umbra]

happy little guy

[burnt quartz]

Well, are some error like :
My joker don't show my seal description
The pseudorandom function don't
and stuff like that

The error logs make my think that is some error in the reference vars inside the config.extra

[wintry solar]

Yeah but queuing an event after calling the function shouldn’t be able to happen before the start dissolve event

[keen loom]

code is exactly the same as i shared above, but replacing card:start_dissolve() withSMODS.destroy_cards(card)
#💻・modding-dev message

[normal crest]

yeah you need to update SMODS

[red flower]

but start_dissolve also calls an event, that's what I mean

[wintry solar]

You should always build on the latest release

[wintry solar]

Oh right

[keen loom]

new version already?

[normal crest]

#1209564621644505158 message

[spice wadi]

can you show the full error

[keen loom]

updated and now it's a different error

[spice wadi]

im honestly not sure tbh sorry

[normal crest]

Put the destroy_cards call before the return, change the cardarea check for and context.main_eval

[normal crest]

what's line 112 of your main.lua file

[burnt quartz]

The error must be the card.ability.extra.adds

[red flower]

<@&1133519078540185692>

thank you mods

[normal crest]

if you have the odds defined in your config then spawn a new copy of your joker

[keen loom]

now it doesn't destroy the joker

[normal crest]

that's cus your context.main_eval == G.jokers is always false, remove the == G.jokers part

[nova eagle]

how do i move this up to be in the correct spot?

[raven wing]

Hello! Would someone be able to explain/point me in the direction to understanding how pseudorandom works?

[wintry solar]

Put it at the top of the sprite

[nova eagle]

ohh

thx

[burnt quartz]

How I refer the seal that I defined in my mod? With the key?

[daring fern]

modprefix_sealkey

[nova eagle]

yep, that did it... thx!

[normal crest]

Mods/lovely/dump/functions/misc_functions.lua is the file where that function is defined

[raven wing]

Sweet thank you!

[burnt quartz]

How I refer my joker's config variables in the calculate func? card.ability.variable?

[hybrid shadow]

what does the config look like

[normal crest]

card.ability corresponds to the config in your joker

[burnt quartz]

config = {
        extra = {
            mult = 0,
            mult_per_card = 7,
            seal ='Succu_Pink',
            odds = 4,
        }
    },

then

calculate = function(x,x,x)
  ...
  card.ability.extra.seal
  ...
end

Right?

[hybrid shadow]

yeah, any calls for variables in config extra is card.ability.extra.variable

so long as the variable is a valid value, it should work

[hybrid shadow]

in terms of jokers anyway

[keen totem]

how can i reference the round number?

[inner finch]

    key = "bi",
    loc_txt = {
        name = "Bi",
        label = "Bi",
        text = {
            "{C:chips}+#1#{} chips",
            "{C:mult}+#2#{} mult"
        }
    },

    shader = "ljc_bi",
    discovered = true,
    unlocked = true,
    config = { chips = 25, mult = 5 },
    in_shop = true,
    weight = 6,
    extra_cost = 6,
    apply_to_float = true,
    badge_colour = HEX('FFC0CB'),
    loc_vars = function(self)
        return { vars = { self.config.chips, self.config.mult } }
    end
    
})```
I can't figure out why, but nothing i put this edition on will have the edition activate. I feel like it'll be something really obvious once pointed out, but i can't find the problem

[keen totem]

i just custom made the chips and mult for my enhancement

i think its just bugged

something

i had the same issue

so i custom made the calc for it

[burnt quartz]

I want to reduce the card's chips value without change the card's skin, some like the strength taro but decrese the abse chips

[keen totem]

i think you can look at perma buffs doc for that

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Perma-bonuses

[keen totem]

does anyone know the reference for this

[daring fern]

G.GAME.round?

[keen totem]

it works

[burnt quartz]

how I refer card.chips? not a joker, just a normal card chips

[snow vale]

how to check the poker hand currently being played?

[zenith sage]

if next(context.poker_hands['Hand']) to check for a specific one

like if next(context.poker_hands['Straight']) then...

[zenith sage]

self.base.nominal will get the chip score of the card

like

for k, v in pairs(context.scoring_hand) do
  v.base.nominal

where v.base.nominal is the score of the card being iterated over

[snow vale]

something's wrong

[zenith sage]

you need a context check

like

if context.cardarea == G.jokers then
    if context.before then
        if next(context.poker_hands['Pair']) then

needs to be in the before context, as in before it scores

[snow vale]

lemme try now

[outer basalt]

how does context.repetition work? I'm a bit confused on it

[zenith sage]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.cardarea == G.jokers then
        if context.before then
            if next(context.poker_hands['Straight']) then
                card.ability.a_mult = card.ability.extra.mult_mod
        elseif not (context.before or context.after) then
            if card.ability.a_mult > 0 then
                return {
                    message = localize {type = 'variable', key = 'a_mult', vars = {card.ability.a_mult}},
                    mult_mod = card.ability.a_mult,
                    colour = G.C.MULT
                }
            end

[daring fern]

You do return {repetitions = number}

[outer basalt]

ooo

thank u

[zenith sage]

this assumes that your config vars are

    config = {
        a_mult = #number,
        extra = {
            mult_mod = #number
        },
    },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return {
            vars = {card.ability.a_mult, card.ability.extra.mult_mod}
        }
    end

[outer basalt]

this isn't retriggering the cards. (I want it to retrigger twos)

[zenith sage]

if context.repetition then
    if card.ability.extra.retriggers > 0 then
        return {
            message = localize('k_again_ex'),
            repetitions = card.ability.extra.retriggers,
            card = card
        }
    end
end

thats what i use on mine and it works, not sure why yours isnt

[outer basalt]

huh

[daring fern]

Is card.ability.extra.cardRetriggers more than 0?

[outer basalt]

i basically snatched it from vanillaremades hack

[outer basalt]

ya

[snow vale]

😔

[outer basalt]

Im getting this every time I play a 2 tho

[zenith sage]

seems like it might be the > operator, because card.ability.a_mult is nil

[snow vale]

so um then

[zenith sage]

is it initialized?

as in

config = {
    a_mult = 0,
    extra = {
        mult_mod = 1
    },
},

[snow vale]

yeah

[zenith sage]

where 0 and 1 are whatever you want it to start as and whatever you want it to change by

[daring fern]

It's repetitions not repetitons

[outer basalt]

dang, thank you

[zenith sage]

try removing the if card.ability.a_mult > 0 then ... end check

keep the elseif not (context.before or context.after and the return statement

if card.ability.a_mult is nil it will probably crash anyway

also

[snow vale]

okk

[zenith sage]

how might one index G.P_CARDS

i tried what it seems vanilla does with
G.P_CARDS['H'..'9'] and G.P_CARDS['H'..'_'..'9'] and G.P_CARDS[_suit..'_'.._rank]
where _suit = 'H' and _rank = '9'

oh and G.P_CARDS['H_9']

crashed every single time

[red flower]

H_9 should work

[zenith sage]

oh its because im stupid

forgot to take it out of the front = pseudorandom_element(G.P_CARDS['H'..'9'], pseudoseed('cert_fr')), i copied it from

im like "oh ill index it to make it not random" 🤦‍♂️

[craggy knoll]

Is there any way to make it so all players see same shop in multiplayer

not same shop list in ante

same shop every blind

[twin basin]

how do i set the sell value of a joker?

[zenith sage]

self:set_cost()

something like

card.ability.extra_value = self.ability.extra_value + self.ability.extra.value_mod
card:set_cost()
return {
    message = localize('k_val_up'),
    colour = G.C.MONEY
}

[chrome widget]

Anyone available who knows a little bit about love2d vertex shader stuff?

[sleek cliff]

im trying to do a thing like Devious or Clever Joker but with Royal Flush

[red flower]

royal flush is not a real poker hand iirc it's still a straight flush

[sleek cliff]

ah

[red flower]

maybe context.scoring_name == "Royal Flush" works but I'm not sure

[sleek cliff]

I'll try that

nope, damn,

same problem

[red flower]

uhhh

no idea

[sleek cliff]

when I remove the next it does NOTHING

[red flower]

i mean that makes sense because it's nil

[twin basin]

how do i set a joker negative as soon as it appears?

[sleek cliff]

edition = "e_negative"

[wintry solar]

Checking for the scoring name should work

[daring fern]

card:set_edition("e_negative")?

[untold vigil]

What does this mean?

[daring fern]

I think it means your atlas is looking for a file that doesn't exist.

[twin basin]

doesnt work

[untold vigil]

I gave some instructions on how to place the files and stuff

[keen loom]

how do i add an extra slot to a joker?

[daring fern]

You mean how to add an extra joker slot?

[keen loom]

yeah

[daring fern]

G.jokers.config.card_limit = G.jokers.config.card_limit + 1?

[bold sleet]

G.jokers.config.card_limit = 5

silly

[bold sleet]

(sample to set number to 5. You can work out the math yourself, right?

)

[zenith sage]

how do you check if the played hand is only a specified hand as opposed to contains the specified hand

[wintry solar]

Check context.scoring_name

[keen loom]

under what context do i put that?

[bold sleet]

When do you want to get that extra joker slot?

[keen loom]

when it's obtained

basically, i don't want it to take a slot when it's obtained

[bold sleet]

add_to_deck = function (self, card, from_debuff)
  -- card gets added
end,
remove_from_deck = function (self, card, from_debuff)
  -- card gets deleted
end,

[keen loom]

does it go inside or outside calculate?

[daring fern]

Outside.

[bold sleet]

Outside. They are like calculate but run only when well, the card gets added or removed.

[uncut cloud]

hey does anyone know why this doesnt work with talisman still?
Ive been kinda struggling with this one specific joker and i dont know why

[normal crest]

G.GAME.dollars is a table with talisman

[uncut cloud]

ah

[normal crest]

so if I had to guess that's where your issue is

[uncut cloud]

thanks

that does not seem to be it

everything to G.GAME.dollars = card.ability.extra.ogmult works correctly

somehow its either of these lines

[zenith sage]

crash that says attempt to call 'ceil,' a nil value ceil(pseudorandom(pseudoseed('count')) * 4)

ceil is not a variable, its a standard lua function??

[normal crest]

Math.ceil

[zenith sage]

thank you

thats stupid

[normal crest]

i'm not sure then

[red flower]

I've seen a ton of people have problems returning any value based on current dollars with talisman installed

[normal crest]

Oh yeah cus you're setting your card's ability to a talisman table

Maybe?

I don't like talisman

[red flower]

I think it's the return

[normal crest]

yeah they're returning a big num table thing

[red flower]

but idk all of that should work according to people but I didn't see it working

I don't like talisman

[uncut cloud]

modifying the return and adding to_big's to convert them into tables still does like
nothing

I'll try and check out some other mod's codes to see if any mod i have has pulled this off before and hopefully that'll give me some insight as to what's going wrong

[daring fern]

Try to_number(to_big())?

[uncut cloud]

okay i just

no no

i just did the strangest thing ever

and somehow that worked

this fixed it

[red flower]

i hate talisman

[twin basin]

how would i change the enhancements of all cards in my deck at once?

[normal crest]

it looks like you're not even returning a table anymore

[uncut cloud]

yeah i

i dont know

it just works

[daring fern]

for k, v in pairs(G.playing_cards) do
    v:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS["m_modprefix_key"])
end
```?

[uncut cloud]

it gains xmult as intended

[twin basin]

thank you

[uncut cloud]

fed it 4 then 5 dollars and it has x18 after taking all my money

i

dont know how

[daring fern]

Code?

[untold vigil]

How could someone rename that so there is no errors with the atlas?

[solid mesa]

looks more like "greedy goblin"

[daring fern]

Is Blade.png in 1x and 2x?

[uncut cloud]

yeah i need to change the localization he is indeed a very greedy goblin

[untold vigil]

Yup

[normal crest]

assets/1x and assets/2x

[untold vigil]

Like that

[hard mica]

im making a deck that makes all the playing cards have the glass card enhancement but how can i replace the normal playing cards with the glass cards?

[solid mesa]

theres a deck that does that

[cerulean bane]

cryptid has the glass subdeck of the enhancement deck

[daring fern]

apply = function(self, back)
    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
        func = function()
            if not G.playing_cards then return false end
            for k, v in pairs(G.playing_cards) do
                v:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS["m_glass"])
            end
            return true
        end
    }))
end
```?

[normal crest]

Something is wrong with your atlas then, maybe your file isn't a png? maybe the name isn't exactly "Blade.png" or smt

[hard mica]

oh damn

[normal crest]

could be anything

[vale plinth]

can someone explain why this isnt working

[untold vigil]

Any solutions for this?

[wintry solar]

just iterate over G.playing_cards in your apply function and call set_ability

[normal crest]

do you have file extensions enabled in your file explorer

[solid mesa]

the py need ","?

[red flower]

the screenshot looks fine so you have a syntax error elsewhere

[untold vigil]

Yes

[untold vigil]

It has it

[vale plinth]

the calculate function doesnt need to be in anything? its good?

[normal crest]

I don't know what it is then, i guess just restart your game if you haven't

[red flower]

it needs to be inside the SMODS.Joker definition, I don't know how you have it now

[untold vigil]

I'm helping somebody else with the mod

[wintry solar]

can you right click the image and open properties and screenshot?

[daring fern]

You are missing a , after loc_txt

[vale plinth]

ohh thanks

[wintry solar]

these files are called Blade.png.png

[untold vigil]

What

[vale plinth]

this you mean? i get the same crash

[umbral zodiac]

is there a way to check if you aree in endless mode

[daring fern]

No, on the } that closes loc_txt

[wintry solar]

rename them to just Blade

[untold vigil]

Like that?

[vale plinth]

ok syntax fixed, now i get this :p

what is a arithmetic?

[daring fern]

G.jokers.cards is a table you want #G.jokers.cards

[normal crest]

math

[red flower]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic

[vale plinth]

oh okay

thanks

[normal crest]

that is the best question i've seen in this channel ngl

[bold sleet]

fuck did I just cake into?

[twin basin]

how do i check for the rank of a card?

[normal crest]

if you brought cake then share with all of us

[daring fern]

card:get_id()?

[bold sleet]

card.config.card.value?

[normal crest]

you mean card.base.value for the rank key

[bold sleet]

possibly

i yoinked that from a piece of code I found

wait no, I am almost certain I did it right

[bold sleet]

For some reason cards have a card field inside config

[scarlet imp]

trying to add my own consumable type, but I always get this crash:

[red flower]

blinds also have blind.config.blind iirc

[untold vigil]

After renaming it to just Blade

[vale plinth]

alr ty

[normal crest]

Make sure you have file extensions enabled in your file explorer, then rename it to exactly Blade.png

[bold sleet]

-# yummers, spanish text, again

[untold vigil]

Forgot to change it to english again 💀

[normal crest]

I mean that looks fine to me

[hard mica]

how can i check if the lucky enhancement has hit on a playing card? im trying to check if the 20+ mult or 20$ activates if not then it destroys the card lmao

[red flower]

card.lucky_trigger

[bold sleet]

owers fr?

[scarlet imp]

bump

[hard mica]

thanks

[untold vigil]

Then what happens

[wintry solar]

show your code

[normal crest]

I don't know what's wrong

[tall wharf]

ui failure

[untold vigil]

If I erase the .PNG it gives me the sab_sab error

[scarlet imp]

SMODS.ConsumableType {
    key = "tboi_reversed",
    default = "c_tboi_r_fool",
    primary_colour = HEX("89093a"),
    secondary_colour = HEX("89093a"),
    collection_rows = { 5, 6 },
    shop_rate = 2.5
}

[untold vigil]

The atlas error

[solid mesa]

in lua you have \n¿

[wintry solar]

and the consumable

[red flower]

not in balatro UI code at least

[solid mesa]

uh

[scarlet imp]

SMODS.Consumable {
    key = "r_fool",
    set = "tboi_reversed",
    loc_txt = {
        name = "The Fool?",
        text = {
            "Creates the last",
            "{set.primary_colour}Reversed Tarot{} card",
            "used during this run,",
            "{s:0.8}{C:inactive}\"Let go and move on\""
        }
    },
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    atlas = "tboi_reversed_tarots",

    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return {
            vars = {
            }
        }
    end,

    use = function(self, card, area, copier)

    end,

    can_use = function(self, card)

    end
}

one of them

[hard mica]

how can i get the card in this situation?

[tall wharf]

ok it works now

[red flower]

you need to do it in calculate

[bold sleet]

shouldn't default be c_tboi_reversed_r_fool?

[bold sleet]

do I question the strange being on the right of the screen?

[red flower]

that's aikoyori

[tall wharf]

wtf do you mean strange creature

[scarlet imp]

I'll try that

[sturdy compass]

“Aiko says” lmao

[scarlet imp]

same error

[bold sleet]

strange creature

then idk

[normal crest]

Are you declaring your type before your consumable

[wintry solar]

dunno, all looks fine from what I can see, are they both in the same file?

[tall wharf]

i could have just used

my joker card

but no i have to be quirky

[red flower]

it looks good

[hard mica]

then i loop through the playing cards and then i can dissolve that said card?

[red flower]

yeah

im pretty sure lucky_trigger gets set before context.destroy_card

[scarlet imp]

I wasn't ugh, such a dumb error. Thanks for catching that lol

[normal crest]

np

[sonic cedar]

back again
-# with the same problem

[tall wharf]

hi toma

[red flower]

what's the problem

[sonic cedar]

hi aiko

[untold vigil]

The files need to be called Blade.png for the atlas to get it

[hard mica]

something like this or i am doing it worng?

[sonic cedar]

the mult gain thing and it

not gaining

same thing as the last 2 times

[red flower]

no, you need to use context.destroy_card like you would in a joker

[sonic cedar]

doesnt this need a context

ok n

[red flower]

yeah i saw that but i have no idea why it isn't working

[sonic cedar]

maybe it's a file loading thing???????????

i know all three files load for sure

[hard mica]

is this good now?

[red flower]

no

if context.destroy_card and context.destroy_card.lucky_trigger then
    return { remove = true }
end

[untold vigil]

Is there anything wrong with the atlas?

Cuz it gives something like this

[tall wharf]

this is nice

[wintry swallow]

does anyone know the variable that gets the number of jokers currently owned?

[tall wharf]

#G.jokers.cards?

[sonic cedar]

how do you keep doing this

[tall wharf]

?

[sonic cedar]

/pos mb

i am in the awe

[untold vigil]

The person I'm helping sent me this

[tall wharf]

it's 1x not x1

[normal crest]

well their image name is Joker.png

not Blade.png

[wintry solar]

this is possibly the strangest development set up I have seen

[normal crest]

Oh nvm, they changed their atlas definition too

[red flower]

it was correct here 😭

[normal crest]

Looks like they were trying to solve an issue someone else had with their mod, but they just don't have the same mod at all

[hard mica]

tried that but it doesnt remove the card if it didnt hit the lucky trigger

[red flower]

oh you want it if it didn't hit?

[hard mica]

yeah

[red flower]

that's if it hit

[hard mica]

i tried doing it like thisbut it removes every card lmao

i forgot

individual

[wintry solar]

you need to check if the card is lucky too

[normal crest]

check if the card is lucky first

[hard mica]

how

[normal crest]

and SMODS.has_enhancement(context.destroy_card, 'm_lucky')

[sonic cedar]

is there something wrong with this file structure that would cause the joker's xmult gain not to trigger? is it because it's determined with global variables and i'm calling the globals wrong?

-# (is this too many images i just wanted to give proper context)

[red flower]

oh you don't want to return in a calculate_context hook

[sonic cedar]

th

that's it

[hard mica]

is this good?

[sonic cedar]

?

[red flower]

no i dont think that's the problem but that will cause errors, the only return should be the last one

[untold vigil]

Told them

[normal crest]

no, the has_enhancement check has to be after checking context.destroy_card

[hard mica]

oops

[red flower]

remove the context.individual too

[sonic cedar]

ill try that first then

[tall wharf]

:3

should i move the text to v_text so i can make it have colours when i localize it

[red flower]

v_text can have colors??

hmmm that is helpful

[normal crest]

I'm so confused at this calculate_context hook, can't you just put that using_consumeable part inside the joker itself

[hard mica]

tried that but i remained without cards lol

[red flower]

oh context.cardarea == G.play

[hard mica]

it removed the card even tho it hit the lucky trigger?

[red flower]

hmm then either i got the name of the value wrong or it's not set/it's cleared before then

[wintry solar]

yeah looks like it's cleared before then

[hard mica]

damn how can i fix it

[wintry solar]

set your own flag

[hard mica]

how?

[wheat jewel]

How can i edit the logo on the title screen

[sonic cedar]

well that depends
the joker is meant to gain xmult if a global variable is updated from 0
said variable updates within a take_ownership of the use function of a consumable

if i can do that within the joker then by all means relinquish the method

[wintry solar]

yes you can absolutely do that in your joker

[red flower]

you need to check in context.individual as well and set a flag like card.no_lucky_hit and then check for that in destroy_card

[high sinew]

curious if i wanted to make a card like the fool but it can recreate last consumable used how would I do that?

[hard mica]

something like this?

[normal crest]

So when you update said global variable put a calculate_context call, then in your joker's calculate function listen for that specific context you created

also this part here does not need to be in a hook, which was what I was referring to initially

[wheat jewel]

bumping this

[wintry solar]

You've also already set up the custom context

[sonic cedar]

yeah,,,,,,

[normal crest]

then in your joker's calculate function you just do stuff when if context.chudhit then

[daring fern]

You would have the key be balatro and set raw_key = true

[wheat jewel]

inside of the atlas or if sstatement in the function?

[daring fern]

Remove the function and inside the atlas.

[wheat jewel]

like this?

[red flower]

no lol
you want to have a flag in each individual card not the deck, and only if it is a lucky card in G.play that didn't hit

[sonic cedar]

are you fr

[paper wharf]

Is there a way to remove certain bossess? Or to make them more rare

[scarlet imp]

how can I create a label for my custom consumable?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[red flower]

that's what i was telling you when i told you about the context btw lol
i just thought you were using the hook for something more complicated

[paper wharf]

Oh cool, how?

[sonic cedar]

ohhhhhhh so i overthought what you meant 😭

[daring fern]

Maybe?

[normal crest]

are you using loc_txt or localization file

[scarlet imp]

I'm using loc_txt for the individual cards, but it doesn't show up even if I try to use the localization file instead
and in the consumables list the label doesn't show up at all obviously

[wheat jewel]

It worked

[hard mica]

seomthing like this?

[wheat jewel]

could there also be a way to change the card that displays on the title screen too?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[wheat jewel]

instead of it being an ace or random locked joker?

[wheat jewel]

Is there any documentation of it

[daring fern]

No.

[wheat jewel]

Oh damn

[normal crest]

for loc_txt in your consumable type

[red flower]

almost, inside has_enhancement it should be other_card and also you need to check if not context.other_card.lucky_trigger then set context.other_card.no_lucky_hit = true

then you check on destroy_card if it has the flag

[wheat jewel]

I know cryptid does it but idk where it's located

[wintry solar]

stop trying to loop over G.playing_cards

[normal crest]

Also the for loop in context.individual is not needed

[red flower]

oh yeah that also

[normal crest]

both context.individual and context.destroy_card is already called for every card

[bold sleet]

Cryptid does a bunch of weird shit.
-# I wouldn't suggest using cryptid as a reference

-# still, I don't know how to modify already existing menus and shit, so uh... yeah

[red flower]

use JoyousSpring as reference

[wheat jewel]

that's alright no worries

[red flower]

(just because i want people to play it)

[hard mica]

like this?

[sonic cedar]

like this?

why is card red

what did i do oh god

[red flower]

remove the not in destroy_card and it should work

[bold sleet]

I need to add my own 'card' (not a card, but just a sprite one can move around like a card) for the title screen.

[normal crest]

when you call SMODS.calculate_context { chudhit = true } that is all the information available in that context

[sonic cedar]

oh

do i just

[normal crest]

besides blueprint I guess

which gets added if there is one

[red flower]

i do add a card to the title screen

[normal crest]

you're already calling your context when the consumable is used so

you don't need the other stuff

[red flower]

sorry i misread, you also need to change other_card to destroy_card in the second if condition

someone needs to do a tutorial on contexts

[normal crest]

also you want to remove the not before your flag check

[hard mica]

this one?

[red flower]

no

the one at the bottom sorry

[sonic cedar]

oh i dont need the center key either actually

since its in the joker

[normal crest]

yes yes I forgot that, you don't need the loop at all

only the stuff inside the if

[sonic cedar]

oh i dont even need the for loop at all ok

[hard mica]

its okay. like this?

[bold sleet]

Isn't there one in like, the SMODS wiki thing?

[normal crest]

you don't need the enhancement check here since you're already marking only lucky cards in the first place, you need to change context.other_card.no_lucky_hit for context.destroy_card.no_lucky_hit

[hard mica]

OOOH

im dumb

[wintry solar]

uhhh is pseudoseed broken or am I just remarkably unlucky?

[red flower]

no, that's more documentation
I want someone to do like a video going step by step on what a context means rather than what the context are specifically

[sonic cedar]

stay out of a casino

(ironic)

[wintry solar]

in 600 calls, I hit less than 0.4 23 times

[normal crest]

aren't you supposed to be using pseudorandom

[wintry solar]

oh fuck

I am

[sonic cedar]

[bold sleet]

idk, I just see contexts as when the fuck something happens when playing a run.

[sonic cedar]

bam(?)

[red flower]

i mean you're right
but a lot of people don't even understand that lol

[normal crest]

contexts are just events, people need a tutorial on events

[normal crest]

that looks fine, are there any issues?

[wintry solar]

oh that's a lot better

[sonic cedar]

wanted to make sure i did it right first before the test (i have an i3)

[bold sleet]

tbh I don't understand half of the shit that is in a context.

[normal crest]

understandable, it all looks fine to me

[sonic cedar]

test time

[hard mica]

how can i make this joker talk like jimbo once pressed with custom text n stuff?

[bold sleet]

poker_hands = poker_hands fuck does that mean under most of the contexts?!

[snow vale]

how can i know if hand contains a straight?

[red flower]

it's a list of lists of all the hands that make up the hand you played, so it will have all combinations of full house, pair, and three of a kind if you play full house for example

[daring fern]

if next(context.poker_hands['Straight'])?

[red flower]

like that ^

[snow vale]

well i have that but it wont work

[daring fern]

Remove the card area check.

[bold sleet]

ah, i see...
-# clueless dumbass

[snow vale]

ok

[hard mica]

anyone know?

[snow vale]

not working yet

[daring fern]

You need to put a context check when returning mult.

[snow vale]

which one?

[daring fern]

Replace not (context.before or context.after)

[sonic cedar]

ok good news and bad news
good: THE GAIN TRIGGERS
BAD: it does it twice

(i forgot to hit shift)

[snow vale]

like with what

[daring fern]

context.joker_main

[hard mica]

i got a var i wanna use in my SMODS.back but not sure how tho , do i do context.other_Card.ability.extra.numberOfDestroyedCards?

[normal crest]

uhhh, you don't happen to have a blueprint next to your joker do you

[sonic cedar]

it was by itself

[snow vale]

how can i know if when doing joker main the poker hand isnt a straight?

[normal crest]

Do you still have the old code in the hook

[snow vale]

i tried to use locals

[sonic cedar]

just checked

nope

[daring fern]

if not next(context.poker_hands['Straight'])?

[snow vale]

nvm

[hard mica]

Anyone know?

[normal crest]

not sure, could you send updated screenshots of your current code

[sonic cedar]

Let me walk my dog rq anf I’ve got you

[normal crest]

woof

[tall wharf]

yes!

[wintry solar]

I hope the character makes noises

[tall wharf]

😭

[hard mica]

it just crashes the game

damn

[wintry solar]

back.ability.extra.....

[tall wharf]

OH

[tall wharf]

welp

[hard mica]

do i ignore it

[wintry solar]

delete the context.other_card bit

that's not where the thing you want is

[hard mica]

i guess it doesnt like that

[wintry solar]

oh hang on it might not be ability for backs

back.effect.config.extra I think

[untold vigil]

How do I include more jokers in one mod? And make one create another one after an amount of rounds?

[hard mica]

yeah that was it! thank you

[daring fern]

You do SMODS.Joker again.

[bold sleet]

OwO

-# zero regrets on that one.

[untold vigil]

Like it has a different art

[tall wharf]

is this good UI chat

[daring fern]

You would put that on the atlas and use a different position?

[bold sleet]

As someone else said, I sure hope it has funny audio for text.

also, just noticed the next button.

I may be blind, chat.

Actually, almost.

[bold sleet]

took me a hot 10 seconds to notice the next button. Perhaps make the text box smaller or put the next button inside the textbox?

[sonic cedar]

goes hard but why does the next button look like a tab selection

[normal crest]

honestly idk why it could be triggering twice

[sonic cedar]

lowkey might keep it due to the unlikeliness of it happening

actually yeah no ill keep it

but it works thank you!!

[normal crest]

lol

i'm curious as to why it happens twice tho

if you find out lmk

[untold vigil]

I putted it in a different file

[wintry solar]

is that definitely the only place you call calc_context(chudhit = true)?

[wintry solar]

I think the next button should be inside the box, I missed it until it was pointed out on the first image

[bold sleet]

Literally me.

[tall wharf]

i mean

[normal crest]

Basically give the button a background

[bold sleet]

yummers

now center the button

[normal crest]

Honestly it looks better when it's below the box

[bold sleet]

or pan it to the left

[normal crest]

it should just have some kind of background to make it more visible with the buttons in the background

[bold sleet]

I wonder how weird the drawing thing looks without the smooth font.

[normal crest]

"drawing thing"

[red flower]

why are you so mean towards the drawing 😭

[bold sleet]

How do I call it?

[tawdry shale]

do we fw the custom presence

[bold sleet]

Strange green and white being found on the right side of the screen?!

[chrome widget]

oughhhh vertex shaders giving me a headache.......

[wooden swift]

i literally cannot find anything about how to make booster packs other than the SMODS page which is not really helpful im ngl do any of yall have like a template or smth

[chrome widget]

I've figured out how to get this to work, but only for textures whose drawn size is the exact same size as the full atlas

[sonic cedar]

it works

[bold sleet]

"Nothing"
The 200 xmult just sitting there:

[sonic cedar]

would we say 2x mult is common or uncommon

[humble pawn]

Shhh its invisible

[wooden swift]

id lean towards uncommon tbh

[bold sleet]

Any further context, or just x2 mult, no strings attached.

[normal crest]

awesome

[bold sleet]

Wow, now my blind eyes can actually notice the next button!

[sonic cedar]

2x base

[bold sleet]

Go with uncommon

-# a very bad uncommon, but eh

[hard mica]

how can i add 10 playable cards at the end of an ante?

[bold sleet]

Again, how off does the individual on the right look when the font is not super ultra HD?

[bold sleet]

elaborate

Like, a joker that adds 10 cards to your deck at end of round?

[hard mica]

im making a joker that adds 10 playable cards in your deck at the end of an ante

[sonic cedar]

it's a gag joker

[hard mica]

at the end of an ante

[daring fern]

Try looking at Certificate

[bold sleet]

You uh... want to probably read about SMODS.add_card(t)

[daring fern]

No.

[bold sleet]

then idk

[tall wharf]

ok

[bold sleet]

yummers

[hard mica]

how do i check if its a new ante? like after the ante boss it gives the cards

[normal crest]

if context.end_of_round and context.main_eval and G.GAME.blind.boss

[hard mica]

alright thank you

[hard mica]

how can i make the card have the lucky enhancement?

[sturdy compass]

This rocks

Well done aiko

[bold sleet]

that sound effect

[tall wharf]

that's from Entropy

[bold sleet]

kill murder, destroy, obliterate, desintegrate, turn into ashes

[normal crest]

I don't know, try changing c_base for m_lucky

[hard mica]

uh why does the card just remain there

[red flower]

you're emplacing it in G.discard

[digital niche]

can i something like

"If X suit trigger something once, Y suit trigger something twice"?

[normal crest]

it's your friend now

[daring fern]

No, you would have to patch/take ownership I think.

[digital niche]

oh god

[hard mica]

yippie

[hard mica]

oops , also how can i add 10 of them not just 1

[daring fern]

Put it in a loop that goes 10 times.

[red flower]

wdym

[hard mica]

i changed it to G.deck but it still remains at the bottom no matter what

[red flower]

uhh maybe it's one of the other arguments that's messing it up

[daring fern]

I'm pretty sure they have a suit that is just 2 suits combined and they want it to trigger twice for jokers that check for the original suit.

[red flower]

i dont remember what they were right now, check the code for one of the spectrals

[red flower]

yeah that sounds hard

[digital niche]

like

greed joker gives +3 mult for diamonds

it would give +6 mult for fortune (custom suit)

[red flower]

probably not but maybe you can do something silly by hooking is_suit

this is not me telling you to ask me what that is tho

[tight notch]

this joker works mostly as expected, however if the first effect triggeres the second one won't(tested with oops all 6s). for example, if the first effect doesn't trigger, it's still possible for the second one to trigger. but if the first one triggers, even if both are guaranteed, the second effect won't activate.

[normal crest]

when you return the function ends there

[tight notch]

ah ok

[hard mica]

well fuck idk which one either

[tight notch]

so how do I make it like lucky card where both can trigger

[normal crest]

create a local variable before the first if that's just a table

then add stuff to the table in the ifs

then return that after both ifs

[tight notch]

?

ah nvm

i understand

[normal crest]

awesome

[red flower]

idk i hate that function

[tight notch]

would using a ret variable work with Xchips?

[hard mica]

this is stupid

[red flower]

im waiting on this
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/pull/720

[tight notch]

and how would i have that return both messages

[red flower]

return {
    message = "msg1",
    chips = value,
    extra = {
         message = "msg2",
         xchips = value2
    }
}

[tight notch]

as in like using the ret variable

[red flower]

extra = ret

[tight notch]

alr

[tight notch]

so if neither trigger the message won't display?

[red flower]

it depends on how you set it up

[hard mica]

erm

[hard mica]

tried my best but doesnt seem i could fix it

[red flower]

this is how i would do it actually

if pseudorandom < chance1 then --pseudocode obviously 
return {
    message = "msg1",
    chips = value,
    extra = pseudorandom < chance2 and {
         message = "msg2",
         xchips = value2
    } or nil
}

[normal crest]

that makes chance 2 dependant on chance1

[red flower]

oh are they independent

[normal crest]

yeah

maybe don't initialize ret as a table and just leave it as nil

then in the first chance you can set it to a table, in the 2nd one you check if it's not nil then add extra otherwhise just set it

[red flower]

if pseudorandom < chance1 then --pseudocode obviously 
return {
    message = "msg1",
    chips = value,
    extra = pseudorandom < chance2 and {
         message = "msg2",
         xchips = value2
    } or nil
}
elseif pseudorandom < chance2 then
     return  {
         message = "msg2",
         xchips = value2
    }
end

easy

[normal crest]

that works too

[humble pawn]

Okay so how would you check if a specific joker was sold?

[daring fern]

if context.selling_card and context.card.config.center.key == "j_modprefix_key"?

[hard mica]

Anyone know how to fix this?

[normal crest]

did you try G.hand

instead of G.deck

[tight notch]

apparently something is wrong with this

[red flower]

the idea looks correct but there seem to be syntax errors

[tight notch]

that's what i was trying to ask about

[red flower]

i think you have an extra end?

hard to tell without seeing the whole function

[tight notch]

tht is the whole function

*that

the bottom part is not needed rn

i just have to copy this and put it there

nvm i see

[humble pawn]

Thank you

[untold vigil]

Why the 2nd joker dosen't appear?

[daring fern]

You can't have 2 jokers with the same key.

[untold vigil]

Got it

[humble pawn]

Anyone know why my card are significantly darker in game version the original image? (Dont ask why its fries)

[brazen tusk]

decided to take a break from art and impement the wips, WoF is close to done for reference on the final product
-# deck is called Tarot of the Holy Spectrum and was made by Chase Voorhees, i like the deck a lot so am balatroing

[untold vigil]

How do I make a joker create a specific one after an ammount of rounds?

For example make the first one create the second one after an ammount of rounds

[raven wing]

I am trying to have this joker view every current joker in possession and keep count of how many are uncommon but I get an error saying that joker_card is a nil value.

[brazen tusk]

this might help #💻・modding-dev message

[faint yacht]

#G.jokers.cards... yet you use G.joker_cards?

Also, instead of self.config, card.ability.

[untold vigil]

No way to set that in without thinking that's wrong or thinking about the placement

[maiden phoenix]

Also I'm pretty sure G.jokers.cards is always a table, no need to check for its type

[solid mesa]

🧠

[sonic cedar]

forgot to ask earlier but with how i did the joker (hitting a probability successfully triggers an xmult gain) any possible future crossmods would have to use my context check with their probabilities right? asking so i can like leave a comment on the readme later

[red flower]

yes

[sonic cedar]

mhmmmmmmmmmmmm

[untold vigil]

Is this right for end of round effects? I wanted to make it so it creates a specific joker after a certain ammount of rounds

[normal crest]

if you have red underlined text you have syntax errors

also for end of round effects you want context.end_of_round and context.main_eval as your condition

and idk what you're inventing with that last return statement

[untold vigil]

Looking in the documentation

[red flower]

#💻・modding-dev message

[red flower]

no what I mean is that the variable context contains those things inside it

i recommend looking at these
https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/src/jokers.lua

[wild escarp]

How would I change this so the joker starts with perishable?

G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
    func = function()
    local card = SMODS.create_card({
        set = 'Joker',
        area = G.jokers,
        key = 'j_dna',
        
    })
    card:add_to_deck()
    G.jokers:emplace(card)
    return true
    end
}))

[vale glen]

Add a perishable compat?

Not sure if you need additional code tho, never tried it

Looking at existing perishable jokers might help

[wild escarp]

This is a deck, I want this to start you off with a perishable dna.

[vale glen]

Mmh... Dunno enough about perishable things to comment, apologies

[wild escarp]

I'm guessing it's just another parameter I need to add, not sure what it might be though.

[vale glen]

Does this work?

[wild escarp]

Yep, that works!

[vale glen]

Oooh, there's a whole function for it

yey

[north swallow]

anyone know why this blind crashes the game when i try to redeem the cash prize?

[scenic loom]

Are there any vanilla examples of jokers that add editions to playing cards? Trying to make a joker that adds editions to all cards played

[buoyant crag]

only similar example in vanilla is midas mask pretty sure, but that does enhancement

[hard mica]

tried that and its still there

if anyone knows how to fix this issue , would be appreciated

[maiden phoenix]

Try adding those before the emplace

                            _card:add_to_deck()
                            G.deck.config.card_limit = G.deck.config.card_limit + 1
                            table.insert(G.playing_cards, _card)

[plush depot]

can someone tell my why its not working

in vsc

[vale glen]

Why is there a comma after the rounded closing parentheses

[hybrid shadow]

so my joker wasnt working as intended so i switched the context to this but stay_flipped apparently also activates when cards are returned to the deck

[plush depot]

good question

[red flower]

oh weird, it shouldn't

[hybrid shadow]

and it also works when drawing cards from deck

i just had a series of events that ill write out here bc its not that long

joker gives +12 mult each time context.stay_flipped is called in current state

start blind > +96 mult (12x 8 cards drawn) > discard 5, draw 5 in return > +216 (120 added, 12x 10 cards (5 to deck, 5 to hand))

[hybrid shadow]

which i guess is technically adding mult each time a card is flipped to stay in a state of face down or face up (which means that boss blinds that draw cards face down just... wouldn't add mult?)

[untold vigil]

How do I make that a Joker gives mult/triggers when a specific rank and suit scores?

[red flower]

i mean yeah that one is intended, the blinds keep cards flipped when drawing from deck

[red flower]

suit: https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/41ea3b428633da0b6de9306310f89858ac38c62e/src/jokers.lua#L47
rank: https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/41ea3b428633da0b6de9306310f89858ac38c62e/src/jokers.lua#L746

[hybrid shadow]

does smods have a context for when a card is drawn face-down

[untold vigil]

I suppose that the highiest rank is ace and second to it is king

[red flower]

no, you can probably use hand_drawn and check each card drawn

[red flower]

14 is ace 13 is king 12 is queen etc

[untold vigil]

Thx

[hybrid shadow]

like if context.hand_drawn then local face_down = 0 and iterate through the drawn hand for cards that are face down (which i also do not know how to do)?

[red flower]

yes

[untold vigil]

How do I make it so it creates a joker and destroys itself after a certain amount of rounds?

[hybrid shadow]

(not indenting here because discord wont let me use tab on mobile) would this work

local face_down = 0
for k, v in pairs(G.hand_drawn) do
if v:face_down(dunno if this is right) then
face_down = face_down + 1
end
end```
?

[untold vigil]

Like the Space Ace joker i made creates a joker then destroys itself

[vale glen]

Like a perishable joker, or?

[red flower]

if context.hand_drawn then
  local face_down = 0
  for k, v in pairs(context.hand_drawn) do
    if v.facing == "back" then
      face_down = face_down + 1
    end
  end
end

[untold vigil]

Nope, like
Creates joker
Destroys itself, not debuffing

[hybrid shadow]

and i can add my mult gain between the last two ends?

[red flower]

yeah

[vale glen]

Ah, could look into SMODS.add_card() for creating cards, and card:start_dissolve() for removing cards.

[untold vigil]

Like this is fine?

[vale glen]

Keep it in the calculate function, not loc_vars. loc_vars is for the tooltip and card description when hovered, not the card's calculating code.

You're using SMODS.create_card(), not SMODS.add_card().

[hybrid shadow]

card works as intended now (was even able to get my upgrade message to return in an additional if face_down >=1 then statement), thank you

[simple arch]

Does anyone know where to find the documentation for the code!?

[red flower]

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

[humble pawn]

Anyone know how to make this so it copies the consumable that was just used rather than the previous one? (Currently its using the fool's code)

    key = 'duplicator',
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Duplicator',
        text = {
          '{C:green}1/4{} Chance to Duplicate',
          '{C:attention}Consumables{} on use'
        },
    },
    atlas = 'Jokers',
    rarity = 1,
    cost = 2,
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = true,
    blueprint_compat = false,
    eternal_compat = false,
    perishable_compat = false,
    pos = {x = 12, y = 0},
    calculate = function(self,card,context)
        if context.using_consumeable and math.random(1,4) > 0 then
            G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({trigger = 'after', delay = 0.4, func = function()
                play_sound('timpani')
                local card = create_card('Tarot_Planet', G.consumeables, nil, nil, nil, nil, G.GAME.current_tarot_planet, 'fool')
                card:add_to_deck()
                G.consumeables:emplace(card)
            return true end }))
            delay(0.6)
        end
    end
}```

[untold vigil]

Like this?

[vale glen]

Now you have two separate calculate functions, and the contexts are confusing. Imma just go back to modding Axy's own stuff, this is a lot. ^^;

[untold vigil]

Ok, thx for the help

[humble pawn]

If you're trying to add a joker and remove the joker that added it you could just do this

return {
  G.jokers:remove_card(card),
  card:remove(),
  card = nil,
  SMODS.add_card {
    key = 'j_[modprefix]_[jokerkey]'
  }
}

[untold vigil]

Man im sure tired

And I still have to know how to trigger after 3 rounds

[humble pawn]

  if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
    return {
      message = {
        "Fusion Queen!",
        "Evolution King"
      },
      message_card = card,
      G.jokers:remove_card(card),
      card:remove(),
      card = nil,
      SMODS.add_card {
        key = 'j_sab_spade_king'
      }
    }
  end

assuming i did it all right this should be what you would be looking for

[humble pawn]

Your calculate function seems to end with a '}' when it should end with just 'end'

assuming thats what the problem is

[humble pawn]

The best way to go about that is to do what the invisible joker does but just make it wait to 3 rather than 2

[regal ether]

whats the repo with the vanilla joker recreations again

[untold vigil]

And changing the chosen_joker with my jokers key?

I'd better go rest, an entire day modding wears me out

[timid zinc]

I read that custom saved from death messages were added to SMODS but i don't see anything that says how

Okay i was right, just set saved to a string

[daring fern]

Yes, but that string has to link to something in the localization.

[runic pecan]

What is the difference between (not _c) and G.C.RED or G.C.GREEN and _c and G.C.GREEN or G.C.RED?

[stiff quiver]

hi i wanted to make a pair of jokers that work similarly to gros michel and cavendish but when i looked at their code all i could find is this (G.GAME.pool_flags.gros_michel_extinct = true) is this what makes one dissappear from the pool and add the other? and if so how would i make my own? i dont fully understand it

[sonic cedar]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/599f32c1caeee6f17e64d849c36768435f77d418/src/jokers.lua#L944

[stiff quiver]

i didnt know that existed, thanks!

[sturdy compass]

VanillaRemade is your friend

[sonic cedar]

another lost soul led to the light,,, i did good

[sturdy compass]

LMFAO

[sonic cedar]

LMAO

[wooden swift]

[sonic cedar]

heh,,,,,, i have,,,, nothing

[thorn furnace]

How would I go about finding the key of the currently used consumable (in context.consumeable)

[sturdy compass]

context.consumeable.config.center.key

[thorn furnace]

thank u :3

[sturdy compass]

Mhm!

[hybrid shadow]

is the context for entering a boss blind just context.setting_boss_blind?

[sturdy compass]

Not that specific, but there is a context.blind attribute when context.setting_blind is true that you can check
