[mild olive]

first time modding is there something wrong with this that makes the game crash,,.

[sonic cedar]

cant you just hook into create_tag

[sonic cedar]

what's the crash

[tight notch]

i don't know what i would do in that hook

[shell harness]

whats the crash message

[tight notch]

i've hooked something before but i still don't have a good understanding of it

does the joker do anything?

also a lot of paramaters are missing

like atlas

rarity

cost

[mild olive]

yeah but im trying to see if the joker even appears in collection

[tight notch]

i think you should fill it out first

just in case

[mild olive]

I'm trying to make it have a X3 mult when you do a flush of diamonds

[tight notch]

it should have a sprite

[shell harness]

i think you need a comma at the end of line 25 but i could be wrong

[tight notch]

plus you don't have any vars defined for the description

finish coding it and then see if it crashes?

maybe

take everything i say with shaker of salt

[sonic cedar]

the only required parts of a joker are its key and localization

[tight notch]

oh yeah

[mild olive]

yea i was thinking of that cause as far as i know if it doesn't have an atlas its just regular joker

[violet gulch]

I've always defined "text" in the "loc_text" like so:
['text'] = { [1] = "Line 1", [2] = "LIne 2" }

May be your crash?

[sonic cedar]

is this main.lua

[mild olive]

yuh

[sonic cedar]

apparently your text table isnt being closed properly

try rebooting

[shell harness]

this is how i did mine and it works

[tight notch]

it could be loc_txt

you have a variable in it even though you don't have loc_vars

[shell harness]

?

[sonic cedar]

you dont need a comma on the last line

[tight notch]

#3# means variable number 3

but there's no loc_vars

[shell harness]

noted

[mild olive]

oohhh

[sonic cedar]

that's part of localization

[tight notch]

if you want it to just display X3 then it would be {X:mult,C:white}X3{}

although i reccomend using variables(which requires a config i believe) so the value can change

[mild olive]

hold up let me try

still crashing with the same error

ok but it's definitely something with the text i think

[sonic cedar]

bumping this

[tight notch]

yeah idk

[violet gulch]

Typed it out myself and doesn't crash. Anything else in the file?

[granite nymph]

i tried using pools but it gives like 31 errors

[shell harness]

man ive been trying for so long my brain isnt working apparently

[tight notch]

i see the problem

first off

foo and bar are not pools

foobar is a placeholder word

also

uh

there's a lot wrong with that

[granite nymph]

i am aware i was just trying to get that working first

[tight notch]

why is that and blueprint_compat indented

well you need to define foo and bar

in main.lua usually

[granite nymph]

because i use spaggetti code that i barely can read

[tight notch]

i'll show my example

so here is my joekr

[granite nymph]

im just trying to put all the jokers from my mod into one pool

[tight notch]

btw there is no colon for pools

it's always equals

and

this is my main.lua

[granite nymph]

i got confused because it had a colon on the steammods docs

[tight notch]

which defines the pool as an object type

that's not part of the code block

so if you define your pool basically like i did then put it in your joker it should work

[granite nymph]

thank you ^_^

[mild olive]

this is the entire code

maybe its the json file idk

[shell harness]

chat my brain has completely shut off what do i do here (trying to add cards to the deck)

idk if im even on the right track

[sonic cedar]

what

[shell harness]

?

[sonic cedar]

what are you wantin- hi somecom

what are you wanting to achieve

[sonic cedar]

that's like the broadest thing ever though

[shell harness]

ok uh

[daring fern]

SMODS.add_card

[sonic cedar]

see that's what i wanna say but

what if they want an edge case

the 1/10 in a 9/10 situation if you will

[shell harness]

this might be a very stupid question but where is that in the docs

[daring fern]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Utility

[sonic cedar]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Utility#mod-facing-utilities

[mild olive]

solved it

[violet gulch]

What was it, because I'm perplexed

[mild olive]

it was maining a different main.lua for some stupid reason idk what even happend

[sonic cedar]

why did you have 2 😭

[violet gulch]

that would do it

[mild olive]

im new on ts dude 💔

[sonic cedar]

🥀

[tight notch]

🪫

[violet gulch]

ts?

[tight notch]

"this shit"

[shell harness]

no option for playing cards?

or am i just stupid

[tight notch]

i think set is like a pool/object type

like if you have a pool defined you can put it in set

i think

that worked for me anyway

i think area is what you need

[sonic cedar]

the "e.g" staring you in the face

[tight notch]

oh nvm

[granite nymph]

is there any way to make this check for a pool?

[mild olive]

ok got it why's the mult thing completely black now 💔

[tight notch]

can you send the loc_txt

[daring fern]

There is.

[mild olive]

loc_txt = {
name = 'Starrushers',
text = {
'Gives {X:Mult,C:White}X3{} Mult',
'if hand contains a',
'{C:attention}Flush{} of {C:diamonds}Diamonds{}'
},
},

[sonic cedar]

you need to make Mult and White lowercase

[mild olive]

OH

[granite nymph]

{X:mult,C:white}X0.5{}

[sonic cedar]

0.5 is crazy

[tight notch]

why'd you nerf it 🥀

[daring fern]

SMODS.add_card({set = "Playing Card", rank = rank, suit = suit, seal = seal, edition = edition})

[mild olive]

HELL YEAH WE GOT IT

[tight notch]

congrats expect more like this in the future

i've only been modding for 2 weeks and my game has crashed so many times

and it

*it's always something stupid i did

[granite nymph]

bumping

[sonic cedar]

bumpnado

[shell harness]

petition to add a "Times Crashed" stat to the stats screen

[violet gulch]

that should be a part of debugplus

[daring fern]

You would do if G.P_CENTER_POOLS["Poolname"][context.other_joker.config.center.key]

[granite nymph]

a mod (i forgot i think aikoyori's shenanigans) has a joker which gives mult depending on how many crash logs you have

[daring fern]

No.

[sage crater]

looks like flip does both a flip over and back

[mild olive]

okay time to see how do i even make the joker mechanic work

[sonic cedar]

yeah that's why i'm asking
did they change flip()

because before flipping would flip it over once

and then flip it up after calling it again

[daring fern]

I would assume not.

[sonic cedar]

ok but it didnt do this before

that's why i had flip twice

because i needed to call flip again to flip it face up

[sage crater]

ok, so it looks like the flip() function is a toggle, according to lovely dump

[steep rain]

Having problems making a Joker for my Balatro mod, cant be bothered resending the message so.. #💻・modding-dev message

[daring fern]

Code?

[steep rain]

keeps saying there's an unexpected symbol near '=' when thjeres nothing there

[steep rain]

You already asked me, and unfortunately, your solutions dont work

sorry

[sonic cedar]

so you do still have to call it twice?
why is it doing two rotations instead of flipping facedown then faceup?

[pure salmon]

does context.end_of_round exist for boss blinds?

[sage crater]

maybe something about the nested events?

[sonic cedar]

why is your atlas the filename

[sonic cedar]

you killed a man
bro is flabbergasted

[steep rain]

I have no idea

[sonic cedar]

they're nested???

[daring fern]

You need to remove all the extra }s and add in the missing ,s.

[violet gulch]

The bracket on line 19 like Somethingcom said does appear to be a problem.

[pure salmon]

something's right. the SMODS.Joker definition ends at line 19 because you have that final brace. you also wrote co0t instead of cost

[sonic cedar]

how do i unnest them then?

[sage crater]

no wait ,they're not
I saw the indentation and thought they were lol

[sonic cedar]

oh ok

[steep rain]

Yeah I realized the spelling mistake and fixed that already

[sage crater]

do any of the other functions you use flip over the card by default?
maybe you're effectively doing flip -> flip -> do effect -> unflip -> unflip or something

[humble elk]

when returning a func from an SMODS calculate function, where can you access that function again? i cant find it on the wiki

[pure salmon]

also, you're calling card.ability.extra instead of card.config.extra

[sonic cedar]

well

[steep rain]

I'm getting a new error now

"items/jokers.lua"]:20: '}' expected (to close '{' at line 8) near 'atlas'

[daring fern]

Please install the lua extension.

[pure salmon]

that also

will help a lot for syntax errors

[steep rain]

the what

[sage crater]

I think you need a return true after the event is over

[steep rain]

I'm very new to this wdym Lua Extension

[sage crater]

could be wrong, but that's what my code uses and I copied a lot of my code from other mods

[pure salmon]

install the lua LSP from here

[daring fern]

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

[steep rain]

ohhhhhhhh

[sonic cedar]

after each?

[sage crater]

is the one by sumneko better than the one by tencent?

[sonic cedar]

it's 3 events as you can see

[sage crater]

yes

[daring fern]

Yes.

[sonic cedar]

yes

[granite nymph]

does anyone know what these colors are called and if theres a hexcode converter

[merry raven]

Finally got back into modding after 3 months of neglecting my mods
How do I quick restart my game again

[daring fern]

HEX("HEXSTRING')

[sage crater]

cool beans

[sage crater]

if that don't work, I'm sorry 😔

[sonic cedar]

yes

[steep rain]

I'm still confused

[pure salmon]

by?

[daring fern]

Did you install the lua extension?

[sonic cedar]

odd

[sage crater]

ok, probably remove the first one then lol
but hover over it and see what it says. If it says something about return type, that probably means you don't need it unless you're trying to return something specific

[sonic cedar]

end of function expected huh

guess ill just remove the first one

[sage crater]

from stack overflow

[sonic cedar]

ok funny guy

[sage crater]

ok yeah, probably just remove the return true's then

[sonic cedar]

THERE

only the one

[steep rain]

Yes, thanks for helping me, that actually worked, it shows me all the problems with my code

[pure salmon]

while you're at it, create a .luarc.json file in your mod directory with this in it

{
    "workspace.library": [
      "C:\\Users\\[PUT YOUR USER NAME HERE]\\AppData\\Roaming\\Balatro\\Mods\\Steamodded\\lsp_def\\folder",
    ],
    "diagnostics.disable": [
        "undefined-global",
        "lowercase-global",
        "need-check-nil",
        "duplicate-set-field",
        "inject-field",
        "undefined-field"
    ],
    "runtime.version": "LuaJIT",
    "type.weakUnionCheck": true,
    "type.weakNilCheck": true
}

this will give you much better autofill, and also stops all those unhelpful warnings from appearing

[sage crater]

ohh ok cool
so maybe it's a return true after the last event only, then?

[sonic cedar]

we'll see?

[daring fern]

No.

[daring fern]

Events don't require you to return outside of them.

[steep rain]

New problem now:

[SMODS _ "src/game_object.lua"]:364: Failed to collect file data for Atlas rref_Jokers

[sage crater]

damn 😔

[pure salmon]

that sounds like a file structure problem. do you have seperate 1x and 2x folders for your assets

[sonic cedar]

ran this in (0.5x speed) to see what happens
it flips face down, juices up, flips face up
then does it again
then stays face up

[steep rain]

yes
[though I didnt do the x2 assets yet for some reason)

[pure salmon]

if you didn't do them yet then that's why it's failing to find the file data

[sage crater]

do you mind sending your code in a copyable format?

[humble elk]

asking again since this got lost in the sauce

[sage crater]

this channel really needs to use threads

[humble elk]

yes

[sonic cedar]

bet

[sturdy compass]

I'm trying to convert my create_playing_card calls to SMODS.add_card calls I haven't a clue why this is crashing lol

[sonic cedar]

do you mind sending your code in a

[daring fern]

What do you mean access that function again?

[humble elk]

i have a context.before that does a bunch of math to figure out what to do with the hand later, i want it to return a function that can look up a card to figure out what to do with it during scoring

[sonic cedar]

well the crash is about emplace

maybe emplace the card?

i cut off the line numbers gdi

[sturdy compass]

...SMODS.add_card does that automatically

[sonic cedar]

ik

[sturdy compass]

I think the problem is due to the card not being created correctly but idk why with the arguments I'm passing in

I did some digging into SMODS.create_card and it doesn't look like I need to define a suit

[sonic cedar]

why are you changing them off of cpc anyway? isnt cpc better in this case?

[merry raven]

How do you target a specific Joker's config values, or even target a specific Joker in general again

for _, joker in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
                if joker.key == "fm_ward_of_dawn" or joker.key == "fm_shadowshot" then
                    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                        func = function()
                            joker.ability.extra.charge = (joker.ability.extra.charge or 0) + extra_charges
                            return true
                        end
                    }))
                end
            end

fm_... is my mod's prefix

[daring fern]

joker.config.center.key is the key.

[sonic cedar]

dont you need a . after CENTERS

[merry raven]

Oh yeahhhh gotcha

[daring fern]

No?

[urban wasp]

somebody told me not to

[sonic cedar]

or i guess yeah not here

[sturdy compass]

I just like using SMODS functions for readability

[daring fern]

I tried using it, it didn't crash but it seemed to be ignoring the rank and suit I was giving it?

[humble elk]

returning func from context.before calculate

[merry raven]

Is it joker.ability.extra.xxxxxx or joker.config.extra.xxxxxxx to access a Joker's custom config values

[sonic cedar]

or wait did you try the key format

[urban wasp]

wdym

[sonic cedar]

like

[sonic cedar]

{ key = blabla, set = 'Edition', config = if needed? i know perkeo does {extra = 1}}

[urban wasp]

i mean like this is the full code

SMODS.Tag {
    key = "four-dimensional_tag",
    atlas = "crp_tags",
    pos = { x = 3, y = 3 },
    name = "Four-Dimensional Tag",
    config = { type = "store_joker_modify", edition = "crp_four-dimensional" },
    min_ante = 8,
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue)
        info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = G.P_CENTERS["e_crp_four-dimensional"]
        return { vars = {} }
    end,
    apply = function(self, tag, context)
        if context.type == "store_joker_modify" then
            local _applied = nil
            if Cryptid.forced_edition() then
                tag:nope()
            end
            if not context.card.edition and not context.card.temp_edition and context.card.ability.set == "Joker" then
                local lock = tag.ID
                G.CONTROLLER.locks[lock] = true
                context.card.temp_edition = true
                tag:yep("+", G.C.DARK_EDITION, function()
                    context.card:set_edition({
                        ["crp_four-dimensional"] = true
                    }, true)
                    context.card.ability.couponed = true
                    context.card:set_cost()
                    context.card.temp_edition = nil
                    G.CONTROLLER.locks[lock] = nil
                    return true
                end)
                _applied = true
                tag.triggered = true
            end

        art = { "Glitchkat10" },
        code = { "Glitchkat10" }
    }
}

er

wait do you mean the edition

[sonic cedar]

yes

[urban wasp]

uhhh

[sonic cedar]

which is why it says

edition

im talking about your infoqueue

[urban wasp]

yeah that's why i asked

here

SMODS.Edition {
    key = "overloaded",
    weight = 0.03,
    shader = "overloaded",

        end
        if context.joker_main then
            card.config.trigger = true -- context.edition triggers twice, this makes it only trigger once (only for jokers)

it is

ahhhhh

oops

js realized

[sonic cedar]

uh huh

maybe go and change the infoqueue now

[urban wasp]

okay now i'm really confused

Remove #

[sonic cedar]

your edition key doesnt match the key in the tag

[granite nymph]

that was fast

thank you

[urban wasp]

wdym

it's four-dimensional in both codeblocks

[sage crater]

the latter

[sonic cedar]

wrong thing mb
why havent you fixed the infoqueue

ignore the image

[wild escarp]

How would I make this only copied cards that aren't negative and make the copied card negative?

if context.using_consumeable and context.consumeable and context.consumeable.ability.set == 'Spectral' then
    local copied = copy_card(context.consumeable)
    copied:add_to_deck()
    G.consumeables:emplace(copied)
end

[urban wasp]

?? i want the key to be four-dimensional, not fourdimensional

[sage crater]

@daring fern "latter" generally means "the second"

[urban wasp]

yeah but it still applies; i'm not blind

[daring fern]

I'm aware.

[sonic cedar]

your infoqueue is still the centers

[daring fern]

What you said was false

It's card.ability

[urban wasp]

is this not right?

i'm not really sure what you mean by centers

[sage crater]

then why did you question mark react lol

[urban wasp]

#💻・modding-dev message

[sage crater]

oh

[sonic cedar]

#💻・modding-dev message

[urban wasp]

i'm sorry y'all, i don't know lua 😭

[sage crater]

wait how did I do that lol
I even looked at my code and still said the wrong thing

[sonic cedar]

ITS ON THE SCREEN 😭
G.P_CENTERS

[merry raven]

for _, joker in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
                if joker.config.center.key == "fm_ward_of_dawn" or joker.config.center.key == "fm_shadowshot" then
                    print("Ward of Dawn or Shadowshot found")
                    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                        func = function()
                            joker.config.extra.charge = (joker.config.extra.charge or 0) + extra_charges
                            return true
                        end
                    }))
                end
            end

In my snippet of code above, is it the right way to check for specific modded Jokers? For some reason it still didn't reach the print message

[urban wasp]

it JUST says G.P_CENTERS i have no idea what that means 😭

i thought i changed my edition's key to match the infoqueue

[sonic cedar]

youre still using the infoqueue that uses centers

[urban wasp]

is that not the case??

[sonic cedar]

you didnt change the infoqueue

[urban wasp]

yeah, i changed the edition key

[sonic cedar]

but the key wasnt

the

[sonic cedar]

do you remember this

[urban wasp]

i don't want to change the infoqueue from four-dimensional to fourdimensional, i want it to stay as four-dimensional. so, i changed the edition key to four-dimensional

am i stupid because a ton of this is just making me more and more confused

[sonic cedar]

instead of this

[sonic cedar]

use this

the key wasnt the issue

[urban wasp]

i didn't even know that was a thing

[sonic cedar]

it's your formatting of the infoqueue

[urban wasp]

weirdd i've never seen that before

[sonic cedar]

why did you ask me "wdym" and then just mentally skip what i meant

[urban wasp]

so like this?

loc_vars = function(self, info_queue)
    info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = { key = four-dimensional, set = 'Edition'}
    return { vars = {} }
end,

[wild escarp]

How would I check if a consumeable is negative? context.consumeable.edition.negative gives me a crash telling me that edition is a nil value.

[sonic cedar]

consumeable.edition.negative maybe?

i know you can do it like that for jokers

[urban wasp]

when you posted[ this message](#💻・modding-dev message), i thought you were referring to the beginning of the code for four-dimensional because it looked similar, so i changed four-dimensional's key thinking that's what you wanted

😭

[sonic cedar]

NOOO IT WAS FOR THE INFOQUEUE 😭

[wild escarp]

That tells me that edition is a nil value, tried it already.

[urban wasp]

this just crashes btw

[sonic cedar]

hrmm

[urban wasp]

oh does it need to be a string

oops

[sonic cedar]

your key isnt a string

[urban wasp]

#💻・modding-dev message

anyway i think i'm done

...nope

it wants to index config

ohhh

right

[sonic cedar]

you realize

good

[urban wasp]

i mean, you told me it was optional 😭

okay i think it should work now

[sonic cedar]

i meant the value not the param itself

like {}

[urban wasp]

eh?

loc_vars = function(self, info_queue)
    info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = { key = "four-dimensional", set = "Edition", config = {retrigger_chance = 4, retriggers = 24 } }
    return { vars = {} }
end,

[wild escarp]

bump

[sonic cedar]

did you forget the e_

it's an edition remember

[daring fern]

card.edition and card.edition.negative

[sonic cedar]

it needs the class tag

[granite nymph]

this joker is only spposed to aply to jokers in the "yip" pool but its working with all of them

[daring fern]

You're supposed to check G.P_CENTER_POOLS["yip"][context.other_joker.config.center.key]

[sonic cedar]

didnt we just do this

[granite nymph]

yeah but i didnt type the code right

[sonic cedar]

oh lmao

[granite nymph]

also this causes a crash

[daring fern]

Code?

[daring fern]

G.P_CENTER_POOLS["yip"][context.other_joker.config.center.key]

[granite nymph]

i have no idea how that s got there

my bad

nnope still broken

"attempted to index field "other_joker" a nil value"

[daring fern]

You still need to check for context.other_joker

[granite nymph]

ohhhhh

im dumb sorry

it doesnt work :(

i have this udner very joker i want it to apply to

[hasty mist]

is it possible to modify a joker's rarity on the fly?

actually, could i just use G.P_CENTERS?

[daring fern]

Did you define the ObjectType?

[daring fern]

Likely no, but probably yes.

[granite nymph]

i put it in the main.lua and not jokers.lua

[hasty mist]

hm, how would i go about targeting a random joker with G.P_CENTERS

like, a random joker in the collection

not a random joker owned

[daring fern]

pseudorandom_element in G.P_CENTER_POOLS.Joker

[granite nymph]

is there any issue with this?

[hasty mist]

could you elaborate?

[daring fern]

pseudorandom_element(G.P_CENTER_POOLS.Joker, pseudoseed("seed"))

[hasty mist]

alright, so this is probably not how i'm supposed to do it, right?

hm i can see many issues with this

this is complicated

[daring fern]

Remove the G.P_CENTERS[] parts.

[hasty mist]

Many aspects of this are things ive never used before, so forgive my incompetence

[desert ore]

I notice in vanilla remade, all things that use context.before, then use context.main_eval, I've made jokers without, and it works perfectly. what's the purpose?

[daring fern]

Also the game would break with a modded rarity.

[hasty mist]

i plan on accounting for that later

i just want to get this working for now

i also just realized i have no easy way of testing if it actually works once i DO get it working

[granite nymph]

does anyone know why the joker isn't working?

[hasty mist]

does something like this look alright?

[daring fern]

No, because you are overwriting a joker in the pool.

[hasty mist]

huh

should i switch them around then

current = pseudorandom element?

[lament agate]

how do you add custom tooltips to a joker

[daring fern]

You mean an info_queue?

[lament agate]

yes

i want to credit someone

like other mods with lile artist tooltip

[daring fern]

You would do info_queue[#info_queue+1] = {key = "key", set = "set"}

And put the thing you want at key in set in your localization.

[lament agate]

noted, but i was having a problem with localization yesterday

it doesn't output what i want

[humble elk]

the stack trace doesnt touch my code. this crash happens about 1-2 seconds after the "cash out" button appears and this started happening when i manually added a function to the card.ability.extra table during the calculate function. (notably my desired functionality works now) any idea what it means?

[hasty mist]

alright, did some organization and switched around the = statement, is there anything wrong with this?

[daring fern]

Yes, remove G.P_CENTERS[] on all of them.

[sonic cedar]

guess you could call this one a crash out

[granite nymph]

bump

[daring fern]

What is not working about it?

You set an atlas and a pos.

[hasty mist]

i'm lost, i'm trying to check for the rarity specifically on a random joker, unless i'm mistaken, the code i have here is setting card.ability.extra.current to the key of a random joker, and the if statements are checking for the rarity of the joker specified in card.ability.extra.current and subtracting the rarity by one, is that not correct?

[keen totem]

whats your atlas definition

[granite nymph]

its just not triggering

its at least not crashing but its not triggering on the cards'

im not sure if its an issue with the joker or the pool

[keen totem]

ok

then how isnt it just crashing?

is it using the base game enhancements file?

why?

[daring fern]

No, because the atlas key would be modprefix_Enhancements.png

[keen totem]

is the base game a mod?

[daring fern]

No?

[keen totem]

then why would it have a modprefix

[daring fern]

They atlas that they are trying to use?

[keen totem]

yea that file literally doesnt exist

not even in base game

[north lodge]

The button on the bottom updates the value which the cycle_option at the top adjusts (through its function). When I click the button, in the background the value updates, but not the cycle_option page. How can I change this through a function that is not the function associated with the cycle_option?
(Notably if I refresh the menu which this ui exists in, it does change the page, but that's because on creation the current_option is linked to the value which it sets with its function)

[keen totem]

so its not even using a base game file

your game should be crashing right now

but somehow isnt

weird

base game's file is Enhancers.png

not Enhancements

but out of curiousity

why aren't you just using an Atlas?

yea no

you need to use an atlas

SMODS.Atlas{
  key = "pick a name",
  path = "fileName.png",
  px = 71
  py = 95
}

key is what you put as atlas in your enhancement

[chrome widget]

Acrobat should be a common tbh

[keen totem]

so with this atlas, you would put atlas = "pick a name"

[keen totem]

#🕹・game-discussion

[daring fern]

I just saw the effect, you shouldn't be using a pool for this.

[granite nymph]

what should i be using?

[daring fern]

context.other_joker and context.other_joker.config.center.mod and context.other_joker.config.center.mod.id == "modid"

[chrome widget]

No desire to go to game discussion. I'm saying it in the context of looking through Vanilla rarities to make sure how to balance my own cards

Justifying commons is hard sometimes lmao

[keen totem]

add atlas = "water" in your enhancement

otherwise its just using no atlas

[daring fern]

Also it is SMODS.Enhancement

[keen totem]

atlas, not Atlas

what does your mod folder look like?

also do you have a localization file or what?

cause your enhancement wont have a name OR description

[hasty mist]

okay so apparently hotswapping rarities IS possible

[keen totem]

what does your Enhancements.png look like?

ok

could you send me your mod in DMs so i can just see everything to do with your mod rq

you can remove any jokers or wtv

but atp i really dont get it

[hasty mist]

it WORKS oh my god

[sonic cedar]

bro lost all aura in a matter of seconds

[hasty mist]

LMAO

[sonic cedar]

is it gonna apply to ignoramus or was this just testing purposes

[hasty mist]

i just KNOW this fucking code is gonna get messy as hell when its done

[hasty mist]

its gonna apply to any random joker in the collection, i had it apply to just ignominiosa for testing purposes

[sonic cedar]

thought so

[vale glen]

How does this work if Cryptid isn't installed

[hasty mist]

cryptid is a dependency of my mod

[daring fern]

You also need to move them in the pools.

[vale glen]

Ah okay

[sonic cedar]

it;s a crypit d addon

wrong reply

[hasty mist]

how?

[daring fern]

You would have to remove it from the previous rarity pool and insert it into the new one I think.

[hasty mist]

oh god

that sounds complicated

again though, how would i do that?

[daring fern]

You would have to find it in the old pool then do table.remove(oldpool, index) then you would do table.insert(newpool, center) I think.

[hasty mist]

oh that sounds easy enough

for oldpool and newpool, are those the same number/name as the rarities?

like 4 for legendary or 'cry_exotic' for exotic?

[daring fern]

Those would be G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[rarity], yes.

[hasty mist]

so something like this then?

or is there more

[daring fern]

You forgot G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[]

[granite nymph]

this joker once again doesnt work

for some reason

[hasty mist]

oh okay, so this then?

[daring fern]

No, you need to loop over G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[rarity] until you find the center and use that index.

[hasty mist]

okay what

i don't quite understand all the wording here

[hybrid shadow]

what is the extra context.other_joker.mod doing here

[granite nymph]

if i donty have it the game crashes

[hybrid shadow]

ah

[daring fern]

My mistake I meant context.other_joker and context.other_joker.config.center.mod and context.other_joker.config.center.mod.id == "modid"

[daring fern]

for i, v in ipairs(G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[rarity]) do if v == center then table.remove(G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[rarity], i) break end end?

[granite nymph]

IT WORKS OMG THANKS

[hasty mist]

so both of the instances of rarity here are the pool i'm trying to remove from?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hasty mist]

awesome, can i do the same thing for the adding to the other pool as well? (for i, v in ipairs(G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[rarity]) do if v == center then table.insert(G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[rarity], i) break end end)

[daring fern]

No, you don't need the loop, you would just do table.insert(G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[rarity], center)

[hasty mist]

so like this?

[daring fern]

Actually no, it would be G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[rarity][key] = center

Also center needs to be the center of the joker.

[hasty mist]

alright, i think i'm getting closer

[hasty mist]

what exactly do you mean by this?

[daring fern]

Just do local center = G.P_CENTERS[card.ability.extra.current]somewhere.

[hasty mist]

alrighty

so now it looks alright?

[daring fern]

I think so.

[hasty mist]

alright, thank you so much for your patience

I know i can be a tad dumb when it comes to modding

sometimes

[granite nymph]

can someone help me with a tarot card real quick

im gonna go to bed after this one but i know im not gonna let myself sleep until then

[hasty mist]

now, time for the pseudoseed stuff

[daring fern]

What is the effect?

[hybrid shadow]

whats the issue here

[granite nymph]

creates a negative copy of a consumable held in hand

its a tarot if that wasnt clear

[hasty mist]

If i do card.ability.extra.current = pseudorandom_element(G.P_CENTER_POOLS.Joker, pseudoseed("seed")), that'll set card.ability.extra.current to the key of a random joker in the collection, right?

[hybrid shadow]

whats the issue

[daring fern]

Take reference from here: https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/src/jokers.lua#L4846

[granite nymph]

i took reference from perthro

[daring fern]

Yes, you need copy_card

[granite nymph]

the issue is that joker code and consumable code are different

[daring fern]

G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
    func = function()
        local copied_card = copy_card(pseudorandom_element(G.consumeables.cards, pseudoseed('vremade_perkeo')))
        copied_card:set_edition("e_negative", true)
        copied_card:add_to_deck()
        G.consumeables:emplace(copied_card)
        return true
    end
}))

[hasty mist]

bump

[daring fern]

No, you would want to do card.ability.extra.current = pseudorandom_element(G.P_CENTER_POOLS.Joker, pseudoseed("seed")).key

[hasty mist]

alright, cool

[granite nymph]

i love crash

[daring fern]

Code?

[hasty mist]

and how would i make the key specified in card.ability.extra.current be wrapped in quotation marks? ('')

[granite nymph]

SMODS.Consumable {
    key = 'fool',
   atlas = 'reverse',
    set = 'reversetarot',    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
   loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
   end,
    use = function(self, card, area, copier)
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            trigger = 'after',
            delay = 0.4,
    func = function()
        local copied_card = copy_card(pseudorandom_element(G.consumeables.cards, pseudoseed('vremade_perkeo')))
        copied_card:add_to_deck()
        G.consumeables:emplace(copied_card)
        return true
    end
}))
        delay(0.6)
    end,
    can_use = function(self, card)
        return 1 < #G.consumeables.cards
    end
}```

[daring fern]

The key would already be a string.

[hasty mist]

oh it would? awesome

tytyty

[daring fern]

It seems that it was overlooked in VanillaRemade that pseudorandom_element returns 2 values.

[granite nymph]

what shall i do then?

[daring fern]

G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
    func = function()
        local copied_card = copy_card(pseudorandom_element(G.consumeables.cards, pseudoseed('vremade_perkeo')), nil)
        copied_card:set_edition("e_negative", true)
        copied_card:add_to_deck()
        G.consumeables:emplace(copied_card)
        return true
    end
}))
``` Perhaps?

[granite nymph]

it duplicates the card but it doesnt make it negative

[daring fern]

Did you add copied_card:set_edition("e_negative", true)?

[granite nymph]

wait nevermind

i was playing on the holographic deck

anyways YAY IT WORKS!

[hasty mist]

hm, what broke here?

[manic rune]

do you not have lua extension??

[daring fern]

Remove table.insert()

[granite nymph]

click run and debug and it should say you need an extension

i personally use the tencent one

[manic rune]

most use the sumneko one (including me)

[granite nymph]

2 cards done today thanks to yall

[hasty mist]

okay it just turned an exotic into a common instead of a legendary

[sonic cedar]

Common Iterum

[hasty mist]

this is the code that is supposed to make it a legenary

oh wait

i think it's somehow running recursively

how the fuck did that happen

[manic rune]

whats the whole code

[sturdy compass]

insanely cursed

        return {
            xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
        }
    end
end,
}

for some reason the xmult just continues growing which is not what I want,
how this code works is per shape joker, min mult is added by 1 but it just keeps growing and i dont know why

[manic rune]

i

use elseif instead of new if statements

[hasty mist]

alright

[manic rune]

of course that will become common 😭

[manic rune]

thats because card.ability.extra.shapecount increases whenever possible
-# or, at any context if you understand 👍

i wouldnt advise doing this

[frigid cargo]

what can i do to not do this or is it just inevitable

[hasty mist]

ok its still running recursively

i think

NEVERMIND

im stupid

[manic rune]

    config = { extra = {xmult = 1, min = 5, max = 20, tempxmult = 0, shapecount = 0}},

        return {

        }
    end
end,
}

you should do smt like this instead

-# i typed on discord so the indentation is fked, fix it on your end thanks :3

[sonic cedar]

Lobotomy

[manic rune]

oh, also

change center in loc_vars to card

[zenith hedge]

where do i find my crash logs

[frigid cargo]

ok thanks

[hasty mist]

uh oh

it does not reset when starting a new run

[manic rune]

wat

[zenith hedge]

new to balatro modding

[manic rune]

like, the rarity goes back to exotic after reentering the run?

can_use is set up wrong

[zenith hedge]

game crashes when i use my consumable

[hasty mist]

no i mean if you start a new run the modified rarity persists

[manic rune]

change center in loc_vars to card
-# not that it affects anything

[zenith hedge]

it says "tried to compare to nil"

[manic rune]

i mean, yeah

you are changing the pool itself

[granite nymph]

i’m just curious, where did you figure out all of this stuff?

[manic rune]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/0930fcef73e437ee4192ebb1ee12431399654129/src/jokers.lua

check that out

[zenith hedge]

who

[hasty mist]

is there any way to reset it when you start a new game?

[manic rune]

yeahhpiehh

[manic rune]

just dont change anything in the pool at all

[hasty mist]

i kinda have to, it's apart of the joker's effect

[manic rune]

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

id suggest comparing your code to stuff in here, most of it is set up wrong

[manic rune]

what is it

[hasty mist]

decreases the rarity of a random joker in the collection by 1 per reroll

[manic rune]

with that out of the way

this doesnt exist (jokers.ability.extra.jokers)

so you are comparing with nil here

stuff in config extra will be in your jokers.ability.extra, basically, but im assuming you wanted to refer to jokers.ability.extra.cards here
-# god jokers in place of card is so cursed

[frigid cargo]

how do i check if a modded card is part of a pool?
like i wanna give 1.35 per specific joker of this certain pool, which code is that?

[north lodge]

Bump

[daring fern]

if G.P_CENTER_POOLS["poolkey"]["moddedcardkey"]

[frigid cargo]

ok thanks

[manic rune]

:3 i cant tell if my reading comprehension is just horribly fked up or this is very confusing to understand

[north lodge]

Probably the latter, I am very tired

[manic rune]

yeah i understand

itd be easier if you can provide a clearer explanation of your problem though :p

[north lodge]

I am trying to change the page that the option_cycle is on via another ui element (the button below it)

But I cannot figure out how to access the value which controls which page it is on

[frigid cargo]

wait what would i put for "moddedcardkey"

[daring fern]

The key of the card you're checking.

[frigid cargo]

oh ok

[zenith hedge]

how do i fix this

the code

[hybrid shadow]

would it be possible to have a joker whose functionality is handled entirely by other cards? (related question, what would the parameter be for checking if the player doesnt have the joker)

[zenith hedge]

im new to modding so idk

[hybrid shadow]

your loc_txt needs to have a second } for the end of it

[zenith hedge]

oh

[manic rune]

can you show me your create_option_cycle code rq

download lua extension!!!!

[north lodge]

local t = create_option_cycle({
        id = 'ante_cycle_page',
        label = "Ante",
        w = 4,
        options = antes,
        no_pips = true,
        opt_callback = "change_search_ante",
        func = 'change_search_func',
        colour = G.C.PURPLE,
        current_option = Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante or 1
    })

[manic rune]

one sec

[zenith hedge]

like this right

[north lodge]

The func was an attempt to solve this, it isn't helping though sdaly.

[manic rune]

there

[zenith hedge]

realized how stupid i am

[manic rune]

have you tried changing Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante to see if that cycle changes?

just an idea 🤔

[north lodge]

It doesn't change anything, no.

Not visually, immediately

[hybrid shadow]

make sure you also have a comma so that the code actually continues reading past that point

[north lodge]

If I back out of the menu and go back in though, it does update to that.

[frigid cargo]

how bout if i just wanted to make them to give xmult similar to baseball?

[manic rune]

i see

[daring fern]

context.other_joker

[zenith hedge]

thx bro it fixed

[manic rune]

yeah so i guess it doesnt update until manually made to do so, so you have two approaches here:
- make the code reopen the ui
- have func check its current_option, if its changed then call e:recalculate(), probably

[hybrid shadow]

np

[north lodge]

Would changing Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante count as changing the current_option? Or is there some other way I am supposed to be able to edit that node's current_option value?

[sonic cedar]

based asf tag bepis

[manic rune]

local t = create_option_cycle({
        id = 'ante_cycle_page',
        label = "Ante",
        w = 4,
        options = antes,
        no_pips = true,
        opt_callback = "change_search_ante",
        func = 'check_co_change',
        colour = G.C.PURPLE,
        current_option = Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante or 1
        check = Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante or 1
    })
...
G.FUNC.check_co_change = function(e)
   if e.check ~= Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante then
      print("work please??")
      e.current_option = Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante
      e.check = Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante
      e:recalculate()
   end
end

probably smt like this?

[manic rune]

thank

[frigid cargo]

what would I add to check if the pool is my modded pool?

[daring fern]

It would be the same?

[zenith hedge]

where do i put my textures for my seals

[north lodge]

Doing something like this yields no good result, it seems that recalculate is never called, leading me to think that the func isn't getting called at all.

[manic rune]

oh wait

i changed it, try again

[frigid cargo]

yeah but it checks all jokers, and gives 1.35 even for regular jokers

[north lodge]

Mmm, still no.

[daring fern]

Code?

[north lodge]

If it matters this is an options ui element, not something within the main game screen.

[manic rune]

odd

does it at least print something inside the if statement?

[north lodge]

No

[manic rune]

huh

[frigid cargo]

    config = { extra = {xmult = 1.35} },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xmult } }
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.other_joker then
            if G.P_CENTER_POOLS['Shape'] then 
                return {
                xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
            }
            end
        end
    end,
}

[manic rune]

changed again again, try :3

[daring fern]

You need to check if G.P_CENTER_POOLS['Shape'][context.other_joker.config.center.key]

[frigid cargo]

ah ok thanks

[north lodge]

Nope
(sidenote, change FUNC to FUNCS)

[manic rune]

ack

what the hell

it doesnt even print??

[north lodge]

G.FUNCS.change_search_func = function(e)
    if e.current_option ~= Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante then
        e.current_option = Showman.config.SEEK.search_ante
        e:recalculate()
        sendDebugMessage("recalculated!")
    end
    sendDebugMessage("## test!")
end

It won't even print "## test"

[manic rune]

sob

[north lodge]

(that's the one you made, I just didn't change the name)

[manic rune]

i guess func just doesnt work the same in create_option_cycle, somehow

[north lodge]

😭

But it does for create_toggle buttons...

[manic rune]

uhhhh

[north lodge]

err, UIBox_Buttons

[manic rune]

my last approach would probably be to add a func to the G.UIT.C/R containing that node to change it instead

[north lodge]

How would I access the option_cycle's current_option from the G.UIT.R though? Is there a get_child_by_id (or something) function, and that would let me do it?

[manic rune]

oh wait

can you try changing func to opt_callback in the create_option_cycle, just to check smt 🤔

[shell kite]

How could i discard all the cards held in hand? any idea?

[north lodge]

Definitely doesn't work

I get a crash on recalculate

[manic rune]

oh

thats a good signn then, at least it runs now

🤔

[north lodge]

Well that makes sense because opt_callback is called on the button press of the option_cycle

I just doubt func was ever getting called and thus why it wouldn't try anything

But this is the error, so I am not sure it is a great sign.

[manic rune]

ngl at this point probably just run the function that opens the ui 😭

i have no idea

change the :recalculate() part with the function that opens your ui

[north lodge]

That's disappointing that there isn't a better way to do it. That just feels wrong.

[zenith hedge]

how do i fix this

[frigid cargo]

    config = { extra = {xmult = 1.35} },

    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xmult } }
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.other_joker then
            if G.P_CENTER_POOLS['Shape'][context.other_joker.config.center.key == "Shape"] then
                return {
                    xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
                }
            end
        end
    end,
}

I dont think i did my code right because it just doesnt work? can anyone help?

[zenith hedge]

dont think anyone is gonna help us

[frigid cargo]

womp womp

[zenith hedge]

why r u saying womp womp literally no one is gonna help you or me right now probably

[frigid cargo]

i know

[keen totem]

give the code

[zenith hedge]

alright

the main.lua right?

[keen totem]

the place where the error is

[zenith hedge]

ok

think its around here

[north lodge]

Include line numbers when you ss code

It's a good habit to make

[keen totem]

so if another joker is in a certain pool, give 1.35X mult?

[zenith hedge]

alr hold on

[frigid cargo]

yes

[keen totem]

yea so

[keen totem]

your atlas is wrong

[zenith hedge]

what in the atlas is wrong

[keen totem]

copy the key from the SMODS.Atlas over to the atlas part of the config in your seal

those have to be the same

[zenith hedge]

ooooooooohhhhhhh

[keen totem]

the atlas config in an object literally is "what key do i use?"

[zenith hedge]

i just started doing balatro mods today

so uhhh

thx for the help

[keen totem]

should be if G.P_CENTER_POOLS["poolName"][context.other_joker.config.center.key] then

i think

[zenith hedge]

it broke

[keen totem]

thats just a syntax error

that will have a giant red line under it

[zenith hedge]

no idea what that means

[keen totem]

lua doesnt know wtf youre on about

syntax errors are gibberish to a coding language

[zenith hedge]

so where do i go to fix it

[keen totem]

fix the big red line

[zenith hedge]

i dont see it

[north lodge]

This particular one is about the rule that every { needs a } to close it. Just like every ( needs a ), and [ with ]

[north lodge]

You need to have Lua extention downloaded to see errors (red underline)

[keen totem]

oh yhea

yea

[zenith hedge]

where do i find lua extention

[keen totem]

vscode extensions

its a whole tab

[zenith hedge]

ok

[zenith hedge]

where do i find that

[zenith hedge]

im using microsoft visual studio

[north lodge]

Oh visual studio

Mmm not vscode

[zenith hedge]

whats vscode

[north lodge]

extentions has its own menu in vs studio

[frigid cargo]

the poolname is Shape but still dont work

[keen totem]

use a for loop ig

iterate through the pool

[north lodge]

Visual studio code

[keen totem]

see if anything has the joker that triggered's key

[zenith hedge]

oh ok

this one right

[north lodge]

Yes

[zenith hedge]

ok

[north lodge]

I'm off to bed, good luck

[frigid cargo]

ok

[north lodge]

Just remember a programmer's best friend is Google/any search engine

[keen totem]

until you find specific documentation or forums

then those become your best friend

[regal ether]

and NOT chatgpt

(stares at three specific people)

[frigid cargo]

which command do i use for that?

[keen totem]

you dont know lua do you

a complex for loop

for i,v in ipairs(table) do

end

[frigid cargo]

i mean i know for loops but how do i check if the joker is part of the pool

[keen totem]

iterates through table (in order in ipairs, whatever the hell it feels like if pairs) and you can run code for each item in it

tbh idk how pools store their info

so idk on that

[north lodge]

Can chatgpt even manage to do anything aside from a very basic joker lol

[regal ether]

idk but still not good practice

[keen totem]

not at all

[frigid cargo]

dang ok ill just try reading other codes thanks

[keen totem]

its cutoff date was literally BEFORE balatro was released

or probably even started

[zenith hedge]

i still dont see the syntax error

[keen totem]

so good luck on mods

for a game

[regal ether]

when in doubt, plagiarise cryptid /j

[keen totem]

that it doesnt think exists

[north lodge]

I'm sure after feeding it vanilla remade jokers, it could do something simple with some strong direction. But at that point you probably can just do it yourself if you have enough prompt engineering skills to start chatgpt to making a joker

[keen totem]

so yea

it doesnt think SMODS exists

[north lodge]

I'm not using smods in any of my work 😅
Then again I'm not making jokers so

[keen totem]

what are you making

[north lodge]

The Soul but in game

[keen totem]

the soul is in the game

[north lodge]

Everything works in just ironing out the fine details

[north lodge]

The website the soul

The seed analyzing tool

[keen totem]

ah

[zenith hedge]

how do i fix this

[keen totem]

did you not get the lua extension

[zenith hedge]

i did

[keen totem]

then there should be

[keen totem]

the big ass red underline

[zenith hedge]

this right

[keen totem]

yes

[zenith hedge]

oh i see the red lines

managed to iron out some of them

but idk how to fix the others

????

uhhh dude

[subtle merlin]

the comma after end line 206

I can't help with the rest partly because Idk shit abt events, and mainly bc i can't understand the formatting for the life of me

[urban wasp]

what am i doing wrong?

[plain gazelle]

how do I create a negative consumable using SMODS.add_card {}?

[sage crater]

add edition = "e_negative" to the end of the params

[hybrid shadow]

bump (and extra related question, would taking ownership and pasting in vanillaremade code be a good way to try and see what works when messing around with stuff like that)

[plain gazelle]

tried it before, doesn't work

[sage crater]

what would the parameter be for checking if the player doesnt have the joker
you'll want to use SMODS.find_card(). I used it to check if the player had any of three "brother" jokers in my mod (the # checks for the number of those cards instead of looking for a t/f statement)

in your case, you'll want an if not SMODS.find_card(j_id_name) then

[sage crater]

well you need more than just the set and edition

[subtle merlin]

key is missing

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Consumable btw

[hybrid shadow]

full key doesnt need to be a string here?

[plain gazelle]

yeah I know, idk why removed it

[sage crater]

pretty sure it does, but I could be wrong

I was told it should be

[hybrid shadow]

oh ok

[plain gazelle]

still doesn't work

[hybrid shadow]

should it be brackets rather than parenthesis there

[hybrid shadow]

random question but why is your closing brace on a separate line to your closing parenthesis

[urban wasp]

byump

[sage crater]

are you creating a joker or a different card?

[hybrid shadow]

could it possibly be because you arent returning any variables in your loc_vars below the info_queue?

[subtle merlin]

I thought you need a comma after the edition parameter, too

[molten musk]

morning

[plain gazelle]

a consumable

[subtle merlin]

morning

[molten musk]

want this to give copy of last used consumable

[sage crater]

use create_card not add_card

[hybrid shadow]

if its a table the last line typically doesnt need a comma since the table is expected to end if a comma isnt used

[sage crater]

returning funcs

[subtle merlin]

huh, the more you know

also it seems like Dex is filling in for N' rn lol

[sage crater]

trying a bit haha

I don't know everything, but I know enough to help with jokers and atlas stuff

[hybrid shadow]

yeah its an interesting quirk i learned, though i suppose i learned it due to any creation of objects requiring commas up until the last line (since the object creations are also tables)

[hasty mist]

taking a stab at this again, anyone know what's wrong here?

[hybrid shadow]

what part of this isnt working exactly

[sage crater]

what does the extra = {} in the soul_pos do?

[hasty mist]

third layer

[wintry solar]

There’s no such thing as an init function on a smods object

[sage crater]

very cool

[plain gazelle]

like that? still creates normal, not negative consumables

[subtle merlin]

hey eremel

[hybrid shadow]

thank god, i thought i was going insane and nobody was gonna bring it up

[hasty mist]

ive seen it in cryptid?

exponentia utilizes it

[subtle merlin]

"cryptid is dark magic"

[wintry solar]

Cryptid has a weird loading system it’s probably for that

[hasty mist]

what should i use instead?

[hybrid shadow]

in truth cryptid is spaghetti

[hasty mist]

would calculate work

[sage crater]

yes

assuming you want init to happen as soon as the card appears

if you want it when it enters your slots, there's a context for that

[hasty mist]

i was simply overthinking it i think

[sage crater]

happens

[wintry solar]

They’re just normal hooks, put them outside the joker entirely

[molten musk]

i was forgotten lol

[molten musk]

this

[wintry solar]

Though the hooks are pretty scuffed tbh

[subtle merlin]

oh right i was here bc i had an issue:

I have an enhancement that counts every time it's played. The third time it's played, it self-destructs but provides 3x mult. The issue is that no matter what i try, I can't seem to get a joker to increase every scored timer by 1 whenever a timer hits 3. The image is my most recent attempt

[sage crater]

want this to give copy of last used

[hasty mist]

dammit

another mod is tripping it

[sage crater]

you should also have a thing inside the if ignis then check that turns ignis back to false. Otherwise, it'll stay true forever

[hasty mist]

why would the first two hooks that i had before not crash while the last two do crash?

[shell timber]

four mluff.....

[subtle merlin]

That can't be isn't the only issue, but that was definitely a big one, ty

[wintry solar]

What is congruentia supposed to do?

[whole lava]

why this one isn't working ( a deck that destroy played card if the played card have multiple suits)?

[hasty mist]

set mult to chips when chips exceed mult and vice versa basically

[sage crater]

does G.hand.highlighted only exist prior to playing cards?
That could be the reason (I've used .highlighted literally once lol)

[sage crater]

you can just do a min function for that

[hasty mist]

wdym

[subtle merlin]

Afaik it's the selected cards, I've used it before but I could probably just use context.scoring_hand

[wintry solar]

That is absolutely not what that description says 😂

[hasty mist]

i always get them switched up

its hard to say lmao

but like

[sage crater]

I misspoke-- a max func. Just put

chips,mult = math.max(chips,mult)
``` wherever you need the code to go

[hasty mist]

if you have 100 chips and then mult goes to 200, chips instantly jumps to 200 as well

[sage crater]

yes

if you use this correctly, it will make the lower of the two values jump to the higher of the two values

[hasty mist]

i'm trying to do it with mod_mult and mod_chips because they constantly update instead of just doing it after scoring or something

[sage crater]

oh, interesting

[wintry solar]

Give me a few minutes to get off my phone and I can type up a rough structure for you

[umbral zodiac]

is tehre a way to make a message from card_eval_status_effect last longer onscreen

[hasty mist]

taking this for example (something i know works perfectly) is a boss blind that makes mult always equal to 1

[umbral zodiac]

also howdy riley funny seeing you here

[hasty mist]

updating during scoring, it simply keeps mult at 1 no matter what you do

[molten musk]

whats the key for specific spectral cards?
is it just their names or do i put spectral_ before them?

[hasty mist]

and yet the EXACT SAME THING, using hand_chips instead of 1, doesn't work

[hasty mist]

hiya!

[umbral zodiac]

all consumables are just c_modid_key

that includes spectrals

[molten musk]

the vanilla ones

[umbral zodiac]

then just c_key

[molten musk]

like i wanna create a vanilla one?

ok

[subtle merlin]

"Omg, all of them actually triggered properly this time, maybe-"
crash
"FUCK-"

I made progress, but it still gives an error

[umbral zodiac]

i only see delay but that seems to be something else

[sage crater]

this probably won't matter, but you should indent the return to be inside the function def

[umbral zodiac]

nvm delay was just so low i didnt notice the difference lmao

[hasty mist]

yeah no difference with fixed indentation

It seems to be tripping this line of code in another mod i have installed, and i cant figure out why

its just so weird to me because theres like

almost no difference in the hooks

yet one crashes and not the other

[hasty mist]

again, im trying to make it work like this

where it updates during scoring, rather than after

which SHOULD work fine, assuming mod_mult and mod_chips dont completely break

[wintry solar]

local congruentia_mult = mod_mult
mod_mult = function(mult_change)
  local result = congruentia_mult(mult_change)  
  if next(SMODS.find_card('j_ast_congruentia')) then
    if mult + result > hand_chips then
      hand_chips = (mult+result)-hand_chips
    end
  end
  return result
end

I think this should do what you need

oh hang on no

that's better

[hasty mist]

alrighty

i will try it

[sage crater]

I still think you could use a max function

[lament agate]

can you make a custom one instead of the vanilla tooltips?

[maiden phoenix]

Yes, my mod has custom ones if you need refs

[sage crater]

yes!

[maiden phoenix]

Tho im on phone so I cant pinpoint where its localized

[lament agate]

checking it out

[lament agate]

and thans

ks

[maiden phoenix]

Check for "set ="Other""

[lament agate]

wait this is tags

[hasty mist]

okay ive never seen a crash like that in my life

[maiden phoenix]

No

[lament agate]

so like

return
description
tags
and then that

[sage crater]

assuming congruentia_mult() returns the higher value of the two, mult + result will always be bigger than hand_chips

[maiden phoenix]

Thats for tooltip desc

[lament agate]

so uhh

misc
v_text?

oh

[maiden phoenix]

You want to make a joker tooltip?

[lament agate]

yeah, like

a joker tooltip

[maiden phoenix]

But a custom one right?

[lament agate]

yes

[maiden phoenix]

Or like referencing smt

Then check this https://github.com/SDM0/SDM_0-s-Stuff/blob/3f2a119366faeb1a3171d90cc9a0200d4c08d7f6/data/jokers.lua#L115

[lament agate]

nah custom

[maiden phoenix]

And find the key in the loc/default.lua

[lament agate]

sick

hold on

[wintry solar]

no it won't, congruentia_mult just returns the value you're changing mult by respecting any modifications done by other mods

[hasty mist]

do you know what happened here? i cannot tell what crashed here but it might be talisman?

[maiden phoenix]

Ye

[wintry solar]

oh it might need to_big jank if you're a filthy talisman user

[hasty mist]

😭 😭 😭

i need like

a hotkey to automatically wrap selected text in to_big

[maiden phoenix]

You should check vscode definitionsnor whatever theyre called

[subtle merlin]

I cant seem to escape this error on this joker, which annoys me bc of how close it is to being done

[wintry solar]

I have an easy code smaple you could use to solve the problem

if Talisman then love.event.quit() end

[hasty mist]

i, unfortunately, rely heavily on talisman

just wait until luajit2 becomes meta...
