[hallow slate]

Which context is used for after scoring? context.after?

[maiden phoenix]

It's one of them yes

[hard flume]

It's not working, I dont think. It's not crashing, but nothing is happening

[maiden phoenix]

Put a print in there see if it exists at least

[hard flume]

Nope, i don't think it exists how i have it right now

[pure salmon]

why does this randomly destroy multiple cards

[daring fern]

context.destroy_card is called on every playing card.

So it would be getting a different random card every time.

[pure salmon]

oh i see. that makes sense

[pure salmon]

can you use config extra on blinds?

blind.ability.extra crashes and so does blind.config.extra

[daring fern]

Try self.config.extra

[rugged bane]

Hey everyone, I was playing with Cryptid and almanac and wanted to only play with almanac (wich now I know is impossible), but now I can't even launch the game because cryptid is not checked... I searched in the files to see where I could activate cryptid again to make it work but can't find it

[daring fern]

Remove the lovelyignore file.

[rugged bane]

In the cryptid file?

Like wich lovely ignore

[daring fern]

All the ones you want to enable.

[rugged bane]

Kay thanks a lot!

want to repeat the seal twice if held in hand

@daring fern

[pure salmon]

am i stupid why does this not work

[daring fern]

if context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.hand then
    return {repetitions = 2}
end

[molten musk]

just not working or crashes?

[pure salmon]

does nothing

[molten musk]

what is it supposed to do exactly?

[daring fern]

Try just flagging the card.

[molten musk]

after calculate?

[daring fern]

No, in calculate

[molten musk]

stoped giving planets...

@daring fern ??

ok..

[molten musk]

anyone here

so people are here

[molten musk]

any ideas about this?

[gray void]

Well i probably have no idea

[molten musk]

u tried your best somthingcom

[gray void]

Im just curious what the seal supposed to do

[hasty mist]

yall would this work

[molten musk]

when in hand trigger twice, and give 2 planets

[molten musk]

imagine a red seal and blue seal on the same card, but red seal only works in hand not when played

[gray void]

Oh, combining red's retrigger effect for blue, i see

[hasty mist]

specifically the score_cal:arrow part

[molten musk]

yes, but also if u enhance card to steel or gold it will also trigger twice

so half of the red seal effect is still there

[gray void]

So, up to 4 planets?

[molten musk]

no 2 planets

[final monolith]

Maybe try checking the code for Mime

[molten musk]

it gives 1 planet per trigger

[daring fern]

Perhaps.

[molten musk]

and it trigger twice

[gray void]

And if its steel/gold card, it triggers twice again?

[molten musk]

its exacly like a red seal, but doesnt trigger when played

[hasty mist]

okay it does not work fuck

[gray void]

I can only say, using a loop to retrigger itself?

[molten musk]

thought of that, but the game uses "retrigger" function so i wanna implement that if possible

[gray void]

Oh

[daring fern]

It's probably because you're not specifying hyper

[hasty mist]

oh you are right

i edited the function for easier readability and forgot to edit the joker to match

[vale glen]

Oh yeah, line 74 has arrow called, but not defined

Maybe it wanted to be score_mod.arrow

[hasty mist]

well this was the original code, which worked just fine before

now that im migrating it to a function, i need to figure out what's wrong

most of the new function wasn't written by me so i'm having to fiddle with it myself

[vale glen]

Where is arrow on line 74 defined?

[hasty mist]

i'm not sure, i'm guessing somewhere in talisman

again, it worked here in the old code

[unborn bay]

theres your problem

it needs to be a big number

[final monolith]

Is anyone able to help with dealing with booster packs? I'm trying to replace the packs in the shops with a joker

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hasty mist]

ah, works now

[vale glen]

Huh... Dunno much about Talisman, should probably look into it at some point

[final monolith]

-# So how do I do that

[daring fern]

What is the goal?

[final monolith]

I want to replace the booster packs in the shop with the Mega version

It doesn't sound very hard in logic but I can't find the right syntax

[final monolith]

So like

[daring fern]

You would probably start by patching/hooking create_card_for_shop

[final monolith]

Idk where to start lmao

Does cryptid have something similar so I can check the code

[daring fern]

No.

[final monolith]

Damn

[hasty mist]

why doesn't it let me do this (before you ask lua extension doesnt tell me enough information to fix it)

this is why i hate return statements

[daring fern]

You have an end above the if?

[hasty mist]

that's not what's crashing though

[daring fern]

But it is though?

[final monolith]

So I figured out how to check for packs, now how do I actually do that

[pure salmon]

wtf i have no idea why this does nothing

context.before and context.main_eval never evaluates to true... even though it should?

[daring fern]

Remove the context.main_eval

[pure salmon]

yeah that works, but i'm not sure why if a main_eval check works here

[daring fern]

It's because this is a blind, not a joker.

[pure salmon]

do blinds not have context.main_eval? huh

[daring fern]

Jokers and similar are the only ones that have it.

[pure salmon]

makes sense

[final monolith]

Sorry for asking again but could anyone help me with the booster pack thing?
Can I change the "size" of the pack directly or do I need to do it some other way

[daring fern]

Yes.

[final monolith]

How?

[daring fern]

Try looking at Off By One from Cryptid

[wise terrace]

Hi, I think I may have found an algorithm to detect straights with multi-rank cards

I do have it implented, but its in c++ tho

Put all cards and thier possible ranks as pairs in a new array (card_ranks)
Sort card_ranks in ascending order by ranks
have an array representing the longest straight for each card_ranks (set to 1 initially)
for every card_rank
    check all the card_ranks behind it and see if it can make a straight chain
    (not the same card, rank gap is bigger than 0 but less than 1 (2 for shotcut))
    update the longest_striaght with the max of the current and longest striaght of the previous one + 1
if theres is a longest striaght bigger than or eq to 5 or 4 (for 4 fingers) or 6 if you did that in your mod
then the hand has straight

[final monolith]

Do you remember where it is in the code? There's like
A million files

[wise terrace]

I haven't thoroughly tested for edge cases and the like, but it seems to work so far, even with shortcut

[final monolith]

Self.ability.extra works in the sense that now I can set the number or cards in the booster

But if possible I'd like to just spawn a mega pack

[daring fern]

It is not possible to check if a booster is mega.

[final monolith]

Ok thx

So the best bet is to set the number of cards to 5 and choices to 2

[daring fern]

Yes.

[final monolith]

I'm gonna try to set the choices to 2 then now

[final monolith]

G.GAME.pack_choices doesn't work

[wise terrace]

its also fast enough to check a hand of 6 cards counting as all ranks about 30k times a second (in c++)

[final monolith]

Is there an equivalent to self.ability.extra?

[daring fern]

You need to patch it.

[final monolith]

At the start it says
G.GAME.pack_choices = self.ability.choose or self.config.center

Can I use either of those 2?

Like, self.ability.choose sounds like the equivalent of self.ability.extra for the number of cards

[daring fern]

You need to patch it.

[final monolith]

Alright😭

Atm the issue seems to be another one, with the if statement

self.ability.choose works perfectly, but if I put multiple of those in the if statement then it breaks

Ok the only issue is that I don't know Lua lmao I figured it out

[long sun]

can patches be applied mid-line, or does the line need to be fully replaced?

[final monolith]

What's the syntax for no edition/no modifier/no seal?

Basically default cards with no modifier

[wintry solar]

Interested in this, what some of input structure are you needing?

[wise terrace]

I actually just made an issue with smods here: https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/issues/758

It just need a list of ranks assuming ranks have ordering and given any two ranks we can find their distance (for shortcut related stuff)

and for a given card we can get all the possible ranks of it to put in an array

[molten musk]

hello

[final monolith]

hello

[wintry solar]

Can you write in in lua instead?

[molten musk]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        
        if context.end_of_round and context.cardarea == G.hand and context.other_card == card and #G.consumeables.cards + G.GAME.consumeable_buffer < G.consumeables.config.card_limit then
            G.GAME.consumeable_buffer = G.GAME.consumeable_buffer + 1
            G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                trigger = 'before',
                delay = 0.0,
                func = function()
                    if G.GAME.last_hand_played then
                        local _planet = nil
                        for k, v in pairs(G.P_CENTER_POOLS.Planet) do
                            if v.config.hand_type == G.GAME.last_hand_played then
                                _planet = v.key
                            end
                        end
                        if _planet then
                            SMODS.add_card({ key = _planet })
                        end
                        G.GAME.consumeable_buffer = 0
                    end
                    return true
                end
            }))
            return { message = localize('k_plus_planet'), colour = G.C.SECONDARY_SET.Planet }
        end
    end
}```
want to retrigger when held in hand

any ideas?

[zealous glen]

Does it compute all Straights?

[wise terrace]

I mean, I can try, I'm not as fluent

[molten musk]

tried adding this in calculate lua if context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.hand then return {repetitions = 1} end

but didnt work

[wise terrace]

it computes the best for each card (acting as a specific rank)

[zealous glen]

One of the requirements of the algorithm is computing all possible Straights, I think

I remember Aure bringing that up at least

Because it’s the vanilla behaviour

[wise terrace]

hmmm, but in vanilla you could only have like 1 or 2 straights

[zealous glen]

I think you could have more

With Shortcut and Four Fingers

[wise terrace]

the only other option would be just an exhaustive search

[zealous glen]

Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5 would have at least 5 Straights

[wise terrace]

with four fingers I thing its just 2

[wise terrace]

huh how?

[zealous glen]

Actually maybe only 3

[A, 3, 4, 5], [A, 2, 4, 5], and [A, 2, 3, 5] at least

[wintry solar]

I think it would contain the 5 card version too

[zealous glen]

I don’t think Shortcut can omit the edges

Oh, of course

[wise terrace]

oh yeah, shortcut is wonky

[zealous glen]

So 4 Straights at least

[final monolith]

Does anyone know if there's a term for no modifier (like 'm_stone')?

[long sun]

does SMODS.find_card work with redeemed vouchers?

[wise terrace]

If you'd need all possible straights its just brute force no?

[zealous glen]

What do you mean by modifier?

[zealous glen]

I thought you could do DFS, though IIRC Aure criticized it

[final monolith]

Mb, I mean enhancement

[gaunt thistle]

http://suffe.cool/poker/evaluator.html

it gets more complex obviously thanks to dynamic hand size n such

[zealous glen]

The center is theDefault one instead of Enhanced, but SMODS has a function to see if a card has an enhancement IIRC

[wise terrace]

I can't see that working, unless you make graphs for each card, no?

ohh mb sorry

I see it now

[gaunt thistle]

use a really big lookup table

[zealous glen]

That’s another thing—vanilla can assume the graph is simple

SMODS would need to handle a bigger graph

[final monolith]

Yes I'm using "SMODS.has_enhancement" and it works properly with enhancements like 'm_steel', I was wondering if I could use the same function to check if a card had no enhancements

[zealous glen]

So even brute force on a simple graph wouldn’t be a big deal

[zealous glen]

I also think you can solve a sequence of MILPs to find all possible Straights

I don’t think that’s efficient though

[wise terrace]

but how bad would brute force be actually

[zealous glen]

In vanilla it’s not too bad because the graph is constant

[wise terrace]

linear programming?

[long sun]

(bump)

[molten musk]

i was forgotten

[zealous glen]

So I think it’s close to O(played cards)

[zealous glen]

Mixed-integer linear programs, but yes

[wise terrace]

I know very little LP (LP and flow problem) so I don't see how it could apply

[zealous glen]

IIRC you model the problem of finding the highest scoring Straight

[final monolith]

I feel like the solution is probably simple and I just don't know it

[red flower]

not next(SMODS.get_enhancements(card))

[final monolith]

What's next for?
I used the function without next and the brackets and it works properly with any enhancement

[molten musk]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        
        if context.end_of_round and context.cardarea == G.hand and context.other_card == card and #G.consumeables.cards + G.GAME.consumeable_buffer < G.consumeables.config.card_limit then
            G.GAME.consumeable_buffer = G.GAME.consumeable_buffer + 1
            G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                trigger = 'before',
                delay = 0.0,
                func = function()
                    if G.GAME.last_hand_played then
                        local _planet = nil
                        for k, v in pairs(G.P_CENTER_POOLS.Planet) do
                            if v.config.hand_type == G.GAME.last_hand_played then
                                _planet = v.key
                            end
                        end
                        if _planet then
                            SMODS.add_card({ key = _planet })
                        end
                        G.GAME.consumeable_buffer = 0
                    end
                    return true
                end
            }))
            return { message = localize('k_plus_planet'), colour = G.C.SECONDARY_SET.Planet }
        end
    end
}```

want to retrigger when held in hand
any ideas?

[wise terrace]

hmm, but the DFS really could work no? if each node was a (card, rank) pair in a DAG, and the only paths are valid straight jumps (cards are not equal and the rank jump is valid) then you could do a DFS for every node in the graph

[red flower]

the function always returns a table so not get_enhancements will always be false
next checks if the table is empty basically

[zealous glen]

I just remember Aure criticized it. Isn’t the discussion in the thread?

[wise terrace]

what thread?

[final monolith]

Ohhh ok, thanks!

I assume the same works for editions or anything

[red flower]

no

[final monolith]

I mean the 'next'

[red flower]

no

[final monolith]

Damn

[zealous glen]

GitHub

[zealous glen]

Of course

You’re not the first to want Quantum Ranks

[wise terrace]

now that I think about it, it should've been obvious

lmao

[red flower]

no idea but you can use G.GAME.used_vouchers iirc

[long sun]

grand, thanks ^^

[zealous glen]

Or iterate over the Voucher CardArea manually

[graceful brook]

Can anyone tell me what "loop in gettable" means as a crash error?

[zealous glen]

Oh wait that’s Ghost Salt

[long sun]

yello ^^

[zealous glen]

I didn’t recognize you

[graceful brook]

I wrote a little language mod to replace some joker names a month or so back, and steammodded seems to have broken it

and idk why

[molten musk]

forgotten again TT

[long sun]

ah, SMODS.find_card seems to find it :D

cheers ^^

[molten musk]

someone help me please

[graceful brook]

ok now I'm even more confused
I'm now getting the same crash with other language mods, even though 10 minutes ago they started fine

for context, I have lovely, smodded, and #1346990688868372650 right now to test with

[buoyant iron]

does anyone have a ipa with lovely injected that works with sideloading?

[graceful brook]

[umbral zodiac]

does anyone know what function i would have to hook in order to change the loc_txt description of any joker

    },
    atlas = 'rtarot',
    path = {x = 10, y = 0},
    cost = 3,
    calculate(self, info_queue, context) 
        local card = SMODS.add_card({key = 'c_rfool'}),
        card:add_to_deck()
        G.consumeables:emplace(card)
        used_tarot:juice_up(0.3, 0.5)
    end
}```

[graceful brook]

huh, i guess that worked? I'm not sure why but removing the dependency tag made it load properly

[fallow condor]

It crashes everytime I add info_queue[#info_queue+1] = G.P_CENTERS.j_inm_grooster because of sell_cost...

it doesn't crash when I remove it

(info_queue thing is for joker information and other stuff when you hover over it)

it was working before

[maiden phoenix]

Try ... (card.sell_cost and (card.sell_cost / 5) or 0) ...

[fallow condor]

oh

well

that could make a lot of sense

[maiden phoenix]

Sorry I keep modifying

[fallow condor]

nw

[maiden phoenix]

But basically card.sell_cost might not exist

[fallow condor]

I appreciate the help

in the math.floor, right?

[maiden phoenix]

Uuuh not put the math.floor with the division

[fallow condor]

oh

card.sell_cost, 1+ math.floor(card.sell_cost/5) ....?

[maiden phoenix]

... (card.sell_cost and (math.floor(card.sell_cost / 5)) or 0) ...

[fallow condor]

Tysm

it works now

[wise terrace]

@zealous glen dfs works
example

[wise terrace]

I tested it with random cards and shortcut and 4 fingers enabled, and it generated a shit ton of possibilities

[wise terrace]

but its repeating sometimes

ok I fixed the repitition

new link: https://godbolt.org/z/6jd9WTdYz

[fallow condor]

Is there a context for when the joker is bought?
(only the joker itself, not other things)

can't seem to find one in the wiki

[maiden phoenix]

Why not make it give an x (x = repetitions) amount of planet?

Like instead of creating 1 card

[fallow condor]

only one for everything

[maiden phoenix]

Tho I think I can see how it might break

[maiden phoenix]

context.buying_card

You can check the bought card if it's a Joker

within context.card

[fallow condor]

I mean only the joker itself

oh

like that

[maiden phoenix]

Oooh wait when the joker itself is bought?

[fallow condor]

yes

only itself

[maiden phoenix]

You need to use an add_to_deck function then

instead of calc

[fallow condor]

ah

[maiden phoenix]

Looks like this

[fallow condor]

this?

nvm

[fallow condor]

Is it like calculate but with add_to_deck instead of calculate?

[maiden phoenix]

Yes

[fallow condor]

thx

[maiden phoenix]

And you don't return stuff

And there's no context check

[molten musk]

how does retrigger animation work in balatro?

[maiden phoenix]

You can have both add_to_deck and calculate

[molten musk]

like how do i make it show?

[maiden phoenix]

Try specifing the returned card?

[molten musk]

wil try....

[fallow condor]

wasn't it somthing like this? ```extra = { message = localize('k_upgrade_ex'), colour = G.C.MONEY },````

but with retrigger instead of upgrade

[maiden phoenix]

return {
  repetitions = 1
  card = context.other_card
}

or sum like that

[fallow condor]

after or before calculate or does it not matter?

I'm guessing it doesn't matter

[maiden phoenix]

Doesn't matter

[fallow condor]

W

it works

❤️

[maiden phoenix]

Be careful tho, if you don't account for debuffed, the function will trigger again when it's undebuffed

That's why from_debuff is a param

[fallow condor]

oh

[signal rose]

bump

[hard flume]

Hmm... I'm still struggling to get Genders to apply to ALL decks at the start of the run.

I guess for now, I could just make a custom deck that has genders apply to all playing cards

[zealous glen]

🤔

[wise terrace]

you can alsoe control the rank gap(shortcut) or the striaght size(four fingers)

[wise terrace]

it could be optimized further most likely

[proud ridge]

[shell timber]

theres #1367354388540297246 for unit tests

[fading sage]

why does this happen?

[hard flume]

ive got this error with this code. any help?

[primal terrace]

Trying to figure out how to make the pseudorandom_element NOT pick the same item in a list twice

[daring fern]

Change it to G.playing_cards

[hard flume]

Changing it to G.deck is what I tried after I got the same crash with G.playing_cards

[daring fern]

Also card would be v

[red flower]

local v, k = pseudorandom_element(list, "seed")
table.remove(list, k)
local v2 = pseudorandom_element(list, "seed")

[fading sage]

You need to check if G.deck exists before iterating over it

[daring fern]

Try this ```lua
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:start_dissolve()
end
return true
end
}))

[fading sage]

the issue is that it crashes because when you start the game G.deck = nil so pairs(G.deck) fails

[hard flume]

How would I check if it exists?

[fading sage]

you can use a if statement like this:

local apply_ref = Back.apply_to_run
function Back:apply_to_run(self, args)
if G.deck then
for k, v in pairs(G.deck) do
SMODS.Stickers["canfi_gender_applier"]:apply(card, true)
end
end
apply_ref(self, args)
end

[proud ridge]

does anyone know how to easily access balatro's code to look at it?

[fading sage]

unzip the .exe of the original game

[daring fern]

No, you need to use my solution.

[proud ridge]

im not entirely sure how to do that

[daring fern]

Look at the lovely dump.

[fading sage]

I used 7zip

[proud ridge]

will extracting the source code mess things up with the application itself?

or i mean unzipping it

[lament agate]

how do you add additional tabs for your mod page again

[daring fern]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Mod-functions#modextra_tabs

[karmic sand]

config = { chips = 50, mult = 15 },
and

        return { vars = { self.config.chips, self.config.mult } }
    end,```

im working on edition

why wont this work

[hard flume]

It works! Ty!

[daring fern]

Sometimes it doesn't work and you need to do it manually.

[karmic sand]

could you elaborate maybe?

[manic rune]

loc_vars = function (self,card,info_queue), not just self i think?

[karmic sand]

lemme try

[manic rune]

-# i dont have access to the documentation rn, and im a bit of a hurry so

also, it should be card.edition.chips, card.edition.mult in this case, i think?

[karmic sand]

I was using the documentation as reference and it only had self so thats why i was wondering

[daring fern]

No, it should be card.edition.chips, card.edition.mult

[manic rune]

o

ye got it

[wintry swallow]

How do I leave the generation of these two random letters?

func = function()
SMODS.add_card {
key = 'c_temperance', 'c_death',
skip_materialize = false,
}
G.GAME.consumeable_buffer = 0
return true

[obtuse silo]

once again

i need help on creating a consumable type because apparently this causes the game to crash when I look at it

[proud ridge]

would it be better to make a copy of the balatro exe to unzip?

[obtuse silo]

that's engine/ui.lua and it points to parallax or whatever
maybe i still need to set the consumable set to modprefix_calculator

[signal rose]

just checked and for me its pointing at self.config.colour[4], which would throw an error if it doesnt exist

[obtuse silo]

because right now it has no reference card to put in it
since there are no cards relating to the consumable
it can't display the thing

update
got a new error message :]

from changing the consumable's set to modprefix_calculator

it now crashes on startup

there's no pool
idk what to do

[karmic sand]

applying the changes didn't do anything the mult and chips still dont apply to the scoring :p

[runic storm]

Good morning all! Super new to discord so my apologies if my questions are in the wrong place. Am I allowed to paste small bits of code in here to ask why they don't work?

[lament agate]

im as confused as you

[manic rune]

yes

[runic storm]

oh you're in here too lol

{
"id": "weakness",
"name": "Weakness",
"version": "1.0.0",
"author": "Lex",
"main_file": "main.lua",
"dependencies": ["smods-main"]
}

i'm constantly getting an author error

[frosty dock]

AI doesn't know jack shit about the Balatro code base or how smods and lovely work

[signal rose]

author has to be ["Lex"]

[runic storm]

that is becoming apparent to me 😄

author has to be an array?

[signal rose]

yea

[frosty dock]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Your-First-Mod start here

[manic rune]

omg hi aure

[runic storm]

John, ty for that link!

[frosty dock]

omg hi bepis

[manic rune]

turned out im usually in both channels when im free :p

[signal rose]

btw bepis any idea on this bc it randomly sort of broke and idk why

it was working fine then randomly started doing this

[frosty dock]

that looks like something that's being passed into your function isn't shaped how you expect it to be

[frosty dock]

the easiest thing to do is to just add nil checks and see if something down the road still breaks

[signal rose]

my main confusion is it was working, then i ran --dump-all once and it started doing this and even after deleting the lovely folder its still doing the error, idk if its that or just a coincidence but its confused me massively

[signal rose]

the other thing is the error is at the start of G.FUNCS.Slider, which i haven't modified, do i just add a check into that function and see if it fixes?

[frosty dock]

hm might just be malformed UI code then

[lament agate]

what object exactly?

[runic storm]

omg progress! the array thing helped it move on from author, then it had a prefix error, and I fixed that too. It actually loaded!

though it has a red exclamation point now lmao

[zealous glen]

@frosty dock They wrote this and another C++ algorithm for Straight calculation

[obtuse silo]

apparently my consumeable type is a "empty pool"
how do i fix this?

[signal rose]

patching in a nil check worked, just gotta hope this doesnt cause any mod conflict but it shouldnt, thank you :)

[frosty dock]

doesn't seem like it at a glance, still I wonder what caused it

[signal rose]

i mean if you want you can download and test it to see if its an issue of something i did on my computer (though it really shouldnt be) but i still have 0 clue why it suddenly started doing the error after working for like 2 weeks

[runic storm]

My mod is sort of loading now, but Lovely is showing me this error: [G] 2025-06-11 11:13:28 :: TRACE :: Loader :: Mod weakness was unable to load: Missing Dependencies: 1: SMODS

[signal rose]

dont even think i changed anything before it broke other than --dump-all

[signal rose]

what is the dependency of smods in your json?

[runic storm]

"dependencies": ["SMODS"],

[signal rose]

ah okay, should be something like this

        "Steamodded (>=1.0.0~ALPHA-0321b)"
    ],```

[runic storm]

or are you asking me why it's listed as a dependancy?

oh wow, that's very diferent lol

[signal rose]

yeah makes it have to be past a certain version, though that is quite an old one

[runic storm]

do I need to rname my SMODS folder to that same name?

[signal rose]

no

[runic storm]

okay, here we go again 😄

[signal rose]

it reads the smods json to get the name then checks the version

[runic storm]

OMFG

[tepid crow]

you can also just do "Steamodded" if you don't want a minimum version

[runic storm]

Y'all are the best!

[signal rose]

fully working?

[runic storm]

dunno if it works yet, but there are no errors loading lmfao!

[signal rose]

fair enough 👍

[runic storm]

i guess i play and see if i can find the new card?

[tepid crow]

would it not be in the collection?

[runic storm]

and if it works, my next question will be hwo the heck has nobody created this tator card before lol

Lars: good question, i'll go hceck

oh snap, that was bad

it said there was a new card in the collection, but it crashed when i want to find it lol

do I need to make code for the actual card to?

my main.lua is just the code for the card i think. not sure about the artwork etc.

[obtuse silo]

anyone know how to help me with this?

[empty coral]

what could be causing rankless cards? lol

[tall apex]

yo could i get a point in the direction of making my first consumable / consumable type? c:

[whole lava]

how can i get a card's suit?

[signal rose]

this should put it into the pool

[empty coral]

probably learn how the vanilla ones work first and try implementing those things for your own ideas

[signal rose]

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

[obtuse silo]

so
apply this to the consumable?

[signal rose]

yeah just in the SMODS.Consumable()

[tall apex]

thx!

[obtuse silo]

mmmm
not working
same error

[tall apex]

bestie.,, i asked for how to make a new consumable, i know how the ones that are already implemented work-

[obtuse silo]

maybe it's because i'm using mintconditioncards_calculator instead of just calcualtor

[tall apex]

[signal rose]

it gives you an idea of how the consumables code works tbf

[empty coral]

didn't mean to offend my fren

[wise terrace]

how's it look?

[plush vault]

Funny enough I just joined to ask about the same thing :'>

[obtuse silo]

nope

Hiiii

[tall apex]

im good, getting started on making the ENTIRETY of mtg alpha in balatro

[hushed field]

hmm?

[hard flume]

I got Genders working finally! That's one thing down.

[tall apex]

bcos silly

[obtuse silo]

soooooooooo
any ideas?

[tall apex]

gender balalo!!!

[signal rose]

if you make the set set = "Tarot" it should consider it a tarot card i think

[zealous glen]

MTG

[signal rose]

lemme quickly read thru the smods code, check what the error is calling

[empty coral]

balatro the gathering

[hard flume]

Yep. I added Genders to playing cards because its something that's been at the back of my head for a while now

Id show yall an example, but I'm currently on my way to the zoo

[empty coral]

Enjoy your visit :D

I don't know if this would be the right place to ask for help with a problem configuring a modpack

[signal rose]

what version of smods are you on minty?

[tall apex]

enjoy the zoo!

[tall apex]

im gonna make it so you tap playing cards for mana :3

[obtuse silo]

latest release
1.0.0 beta 0530b

[empty coral]

would you add like a 5th suit for that?

[karmic sand]

Hi I'm still struggling with my edition, I have
config = { chips = 50, mult = 15 },

        return { vars = { card.edition.chips, card.edition.mult } }
    end,```
yes despite this it doesnt seem to be adding the chips or mult to the score

[hard flume]

I'm still hoping to get Pikmin working relatively soon. I might have to redo some of my ideas

[zealous glen]

try using a calculate function

[empty coral]

This was meant as a question for you, @tall apex

[karmic sand]

I did have one but it wasnt working but I'll do it again and just make sure i wasnt stupid lol

[runic storm]

Much appreciattion for the earlier assistance. will be back for more!

[empty coral]

anybody knows a workaround or fix for
A. Cartomancer crashing on deck view (specifically trying to load a 2nd page)
B. Some extra deck mods freak out when there's extra suits defined

c and less important, cartomancer crashing while (i believe) trying to display the amount of suitless&rankless cards. just by hovering over the deck view screen button

[tall apex]

i think i probably will :3

idk how else it'd work

[gleaming drift]

Yall does anybody know how to make my jokers not appear in the shop?

Like i made a legendary but bro still appears in the shop

And "in_shop = false," does not work

[wintry solar]

Legendaries dont appear in the shop at all by default

[gleaming drift]

Well for some reason my does

[wintry solar]

Do you have a mod that enables that?

[worthy stirrup]

How do i make my scoring compatible with talisman?

            local chips = G.GAME.chips
            local blind_chips = G.GAME.blind.chips

            local progress = math.min(chips / blind_chips, 1)
            print(progress)
            local color = Lerp_color("#fd5f55", "#3cb4ff", progress)
            self.boss_colour = HEX(color)

Nope

Just my mod and some quality of life mods. Thats it

[whole lava]

anyone know how to trigger context.destroy_card for the cards you want to remove ?

[turbid maple]

when are you trying to destroy cards exactly

[whole lava]

i mean after scored

[turbid maple]

the game should trigger it by default?

[whole lava]

ok thanks:))

[subtle merlin]

In my experience it does

[wise terrace]

there's an smods server?

im making a joker is there a way to check if cards are played like the reserved parking but for every card?

[hushed field]

can use is a function, not a boolean, so you want to set it up like a function. The proper syntax should be on the consumable page of the smosd wiki

[modern kindle]

also i barged into modding chat but good schmorning chat

hi ice my goat i havent seen you in many moons

[hushed field]

@red flowerAre extra deck jokers able to be sold from the extra deck? I'm correctly remembering that they are, right?

[hushed field]

that happens when you disappear for many moons 😛

[subtle merlin]

Something something context.joker_main, G.hand

[modern kindle]

this is true science can back that up

[zealous glen]

I made some auxiliary objects Eternal to prevent them from being sold

[hushed field]

I'm trying to do the opposite 😛

[zealous glen]

They could be sold natively for me

[hushed field]

That should fully be the case, yeah, I don't see why it's not working on my end, haha

[worthy stirrup]

Does anyone know why Talisman is causing a crash

[hushed field]

but I'm more so just trying to parse the buttons code at this point

Maybe progress is a big number instead of a number

i dont understand why it would be, but how do i make it a non big number

like this?

[zealous glen]

idk

to_number on it

Remove the last function, make a for I, card in ipairs(G.hand) do before the return and then it should be at least somewhat better

@signal rose any updates?

Sorry I have the worst keyboard. Straight up typewriter

i need a new keyboard, it's a pain in the ass to remove and clean under keycaps so it's a crumb collector

[polar tulip]

and yes there was 2 scams back to back, he caught some shrapnel

time for rescue

[snow vale]

how can i give negative to a random joker?

[acoustic briar]

i think just looking at the game's code for ectoplasm would show you how

ok

damn i never be seeing threads

Whats the set/area call for playing cards?

[subtle merlin]

G.play, G.hand, G.deck or `G.discard' depending on where the playing cards are located

Thank you very much

[acoustic briar]

for my own question, how i can have an event trigger when mipmap levels are changed? any sprites i manually change w/SMODS.Atlas + raw_key are reset to vanilla if mipmap levels are messed with

[subtle merlin]

I just try to contain things in their own areas if I feel they go to far

? why'd you unban him?

that was the user id of the scammer

G.GAME.blind is just nil

sorry if i was unclear abt that

?

Yeah I def banned someone i shouldn't have

[plush vault]

I keep getting the same error from this function :'>

[acoustic briar]

are you sure?

[acoustic briar]

he assumed that the second scammer was the first

[polar tulip]

@steady blade can you weigh in.

[acoustic briar]

first scammer had a display name of pedro or smth

[polar tulip]

no that was actually after lol

[subtle merlin]

@pulsar furnace it shouldn't be? What context are you calling it in?

[subtle merlin]

That can't be where the error is coming from because it says bad argument to ipairs, share the code, please?

[pulsar furnace]

in a apply, idk if theres a context when generating a blind or something like that (also its for a deck)

[polar tulip]

You are correct

[subtle merlin]

Oh, I haven't messed with decks before. Also there is, it's context.setting_blind

[normal crest]

that code you sent is not a function

oh

            "Add a 7 of spades to your deck",
        }
    },
    atlas = 'Tarots', -- atlas' key
    rarity = 1,
    cost = 3,
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = true,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    eternal_compat = true,
    perishable_compat = true,
    pos = {x = 0, y = 0},
    set = "Tarot",

    
    -- Main function of the tarot
    use = function(self, card, area, copier)
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({ func = function()
                        local new_card = {set = 'Card', area= G.deck, rank = 7, suit = spade}
                        
                        SMODS.add_card(new_card)
                return true
                end 
                }))
    end,
    
    can_use = function(self, card)
        return true

I also did try with ```lua
local new_card = {set = 'Joker', area = G.jokers, key = 'j_destino_entropico_raraka', edition = 'e_negative'}

[polar tulip]

not martini syrr, @steady blade

[hard flume]

Hi :3

[empty coral]

helo

[polar tulip]

I need a new keyboard I feel like a stenographer

[normal crest]

suit = "Spades"

[plush vault]

I... uh...

Oh

[hard flume]

It's okay! Everyone makes mistakes like that

[empty coral]

Only if you never try

[plush vault]

what now 💀

[normal crest]

You're not using the smods version that has that feature if I had to guess

[empty coral]

i keep reading 530b is latest release

[plush vault]

I installed it yesterday /shrug

[normal crest]

Yeah the adding of playinf cards with add_card is on the dev branch of smods

Not out in a release yet

[modern kindle]

im on 0608b, but i use latest commit

[steady blade]

yeah?

[subtle merlin]

Hey Dilly

[plush vault]

How should I go about adding a 7 of spades in 530b then? ;-;

[steady blade]

what do you need?

[normal crest]

You can go to the smods github and download the latest stuff by clicking the green Code button and then download zip

[modern kindle]

whats up

[polar tulip]

Nothin, I unbanned a scammer cuz of this message

[normal crest]

By copying how vanilla does it, but honestly just get the dev version of smods

[steady blade]

oh that was just a slight joke message, mb

[modern kindle]

now hes really gonna be c+rashing out youre crazy my man

[polar tulip]

way too confusing for us mate we get pinged all day and never have context

[modern kindle]

yea i was under the assumption 3 people got banned, 2 scammers and 1 poor guy caught int he crossfire

[plush vault]

Dev version didn't help, still getting the same error :'>

[normal crest]

Pass "Base" as the set

[pulsar furnace]

is was G.GAME.blind.dollars BUT it doesnt shows total reward until cash out

[polar tulip]

well, i think it's more of a "race" to get em first now lol

so we skim

[native zinc]

whac a scam

[serene granite]

hey i hate having to ask questions that seem simple, but i saw the steamodded guide and i found the way to add money to the player after the round is done, but i couldnt find how to add money through out the round itself, like after every hand, can someone point me in the right direction please

[native zinc]

ease_dollars(1)

just call the function

[serene granite]

ohh ok, so i just call that function whenever i want it to happen?

[vale glen]

You'll prolly want it in the right context for your needs, too

[plush vault]

It finally works, thank you very much 💛 TTvTT

[normal crest]

Yay

[polar tulip]

I had to do this all last night it was annoying. You also want the new lovely. dll in your dalatro directory

[native zinc]

keyword whenever, you have to also specify when

calculate functions has a pretty ok documentation even if it's like missing 10 contexts

[serene granite]

ooh ok, im going to look through the vanilla modded examples to learn more

[native zinc]

wow

[vale glen]

For basic timings, you can look at the Calculate Functions page in the wiki and see various contexts there.

[sturdy crescent]

yooo lets go

[native zinc]

<@&1133519078540185692>

[serene granite]

is that a scammer?

[native zinc]

yes

[normal crest]

Yes

[empty coral]

pew pew

[vale glen]

Scambots really like showing up around this time, huh.

[serene granite]

weird

[empty coral]

no, he just wants to give you free money

[wintry solar]

Please don’t recommend this to new devs, the vast majority of people should be using the latest release

[sturdy crescent]

hi chatters errr i have a joker that creates a tarot card but it crashes when it does add card, does anyone know why?

[normal crest]

I wasn't about to explain how to create a playing card without the utility function, too much of a pain

[tall apex]

hey friends, can anyone tell at a glance why this isn't working quite right?

[native zinc]

SMODS.add_card is a function ....

it's add_card( {...} )

[normal crest]

They're calling it right

You can skip the parenthesis if it's only one table argument

[native zinc]

no return?

it's not a returnable thing

[tall apex]

oh icic ty :3

[tepid crow]

update smods, that's a very old version

[polar tulip]

i find it odd they changed the name from steammodded to smods

[normal crest]

Besides what they said you don't want to do +2, you want +1 on both

[polar tulip]

Update

• smods
• Cryptid
• Talisman
  -# ⚠️ Make sure to remove the -main from the Talisman folder name. ⚠️

Delete old folders before updating

(hint: use these links since they're always on the latest version)

⚠️ ALSO ⚠️

If you aren't on Lovely Injector 0.8.0 grab it here

[tepid crow]

people kept thinking it was for steam only

[empty coral]

my first thought when i read the name

[native zinc]

i like how this copy paste includes cryptid and talisman

[empty coral]

then i learned it's named after the person

[tall apex]

im getting this when i try to do badgeses . w.

[sturdy crescent]

ty for the help 😭 idk why i didnt update it when i started modding lmao

[empty coral]

i like the "please remove -main from the folder"

[tall apex]

somethin somewhere is formatted wrong

[normal crest]

What's your current code

[polar tulip]

yeah you have to manually change the fil;e names

[tall apex]

this is p much it

[tepid crow]

yeah that's just cuz talisman is weird like that and nobody bothered to put in effort to try and fix it

[normal crest]

its the comma at the end of the first line

Also do #badges + 1 on both

[polar tulip]

and manually delete version . dll in the separate, balatro dir and paste the new version . dll from the lovely link

[subtle merlin]

Ah

[tall apex]

that just gives me this

[normal crest]

Sorry, I meant the comma at the end of line 10

[tall apex]

ah

neat, thanks, im still learning how these new arguments work c:

[native zinc]

the comma was for the return table

[empty coral]

took me several attempts to parse that nickname

(I was like "what's a Canicha" ???)

[wintry solar]

My recommended response in a situation like this would be something like “you can check out how vanilla uses create_playign_card or wait a week or so for the new smods release that’ll have the feature”. My plan is that there’ll be a new stable release every two weeks, and I’d recommend people use that instead of latest commit (unless you are prepared for reporting bugs of new features)

Whoops I removed the reply @normal crest

[normal crest]

Yeah I guess that was a better reply

[wintry solar]

It’s just much healthier for the wider scene to use releases instead of latest commit

[native zinc]

i'm a hat for a californian network interface controller

obviously?

[empty coral]

my B

[gaunt thistle]

have any of you guys encountered any regressions in lovely 0.8.0? I had one report in the lovely thread but I haven't seen anything else.

[normal crest]

A bit unrelated but create_card seems to accept "Playing Card" as set while add_card doesn't

[gaunt thistle]

we changed module injection timings which in theory could break backwards compatibility but it's not likely

[wintry solar]

It’s seemed fine to me

[gaunt thistle]

word

[wintry solar]

are you sure? Add card definitely worked when I was testing the pr 🤔

[normal crest]

now I'm not sure

Oh nvm, create_card changes the set to either base or enhanced

I said nothing

[tepid crow]

haven't seen or heard of any issues yet

[fading sage]

how can I give a card extra chip value? like for example if I play a ace of spades with a joker the value of the card goes from "+11 chips" to "+21 chips"

[tepid crow]

like hiker?

[spice wadi]

i mean its possible but i cant tell you how exactly

[fading sage]

exactly

[spice wadi]

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

[fading sage]

oh thanks

[hollow snow]

guys how can i add an info_queue that gives information on the edible keyword, i don't want to do a consumable type or something like that, just the description

[empty coral]

like a pop-up when you hover over the word with the mouse?

oh no, like an extra bubble

[hollow snow]

over the joker would work better

just extra info

[empty coral]

idk myself i wanted to know if you meant the other thing

[normal crest]

you mean an info_queue with custom text?

[hollow snow]

yeah, without creating an extra consumable,edition etc

[normal crest]

you have to put it in the Other section of your localization file

[hollow snow]

if i don't have a localization file i can't do it?

[normal crest]

Then append { set = "Other", key = "the_key_you_used" } to info_queue

[normal crest]

you still can but I wouldn't recommend it

Making a localization file is easier

[hollow snow]

ok i'll do one then

[normal crest]

return {
   descriptions = {
       Other = {
          something = {
             name = "something",
             text = {
                 "something else"
             }
          }
       }
   }
}

that's what your loc file should end up looking like

[tall apex]

does anyone know how to approach giving an enhancement a "use" button like cryptid does? :0

[normal crest]

then you pass "something" as the key

I'd recommend putting your mod prefix in the key to make sure it's uniqur

[tall apex]

i looked in cryptid but.,, i couldn't figure that out

[hollow snow]

tysm it worked perfectly

also can i color the name of the description?

[plush vault]

What .lua has the code for the vanilla jokers? 🍀 w 🍀

[tepid crow]

it's spread out but mostly in card.lua

[plush vault]

Thankies

I will poke around!

[chrome widget]

Aside from some specific examples, a lot of vanilla joker code is in Card:calculate_joker(context)

Those that aren't are cards that are needed in non context scenarios, like Pareidolia is checked for in Card:is_face()

The easiest way to find a specific joker is to just search for it by its English name in your code editor, because for some bizarre reason, those effects are determined by card name

[tall apex]

wimter . 3.

[chrome widget]

You'll typically find

• It's defined name in Game:init_item_prototypes()
• Its return block in Card:calculate_joker()
• Its vars (if applicable) in Card:generate_UIBox_ability_table()
• Any vanilla examples of find_card() searching for that card, though SMODS replaces it with SMODS.find_card() which uses its key instead

Hi hunnybyte!!!

[tall apex]

hihihihihiihihihihi :3

look war crimes

[hard flume]

Hiiii

[chrome widget]

I must grabe me some food before I sit down and Porgramm

[tall apex]

porgram.,,

i should probably stop progrem and eat

[chrome widget]

Perhaps I get another bento....

[tall apex]

idk what im gonna get but its either dino nuggets or soup

oh also i wanted to ask you coding question but rn imnna take a break

[chrome widget]

Oh I can't say that

Uhh

[tall apex]

real

[chrome widget]

I'm always a heavy supporter of soup

I used a different word there and got automodded lmao

[chrome widget]

Well whenever you're available

[sonic cedar]

Modding question
is there a context for “if a joker was moved (like drag dropped)”?

I want a function to trigger for when a joker is moved directly to the right of the joker I need the context for

[subtle merlin]

MTG!

[tall apex]

i have a profound and intimate support of the suppertime meal known as soup at a rather large capacity

[tall apex]

yurp im making most of if not all of alpha

[fresh saddle]

Question. is there a mod that allows me to manually play the scoring animation one step at a time, so, I can press a key to advance to the next "event" in the scoring, (like, the next card to be scored, or the next joker to trigger, etc)

[tall apex]

i wish, i have ones that need to trigger when dropped in the right spots

[tall apex]

oh ty thats v kind :3

[sonic cedar]

paiiiinnnnnnnn (Im trying to fix this)

[tall apex]

SPEEEEEEEEEEEN!!!!!!!!!!!

mine isnt even a fix mine just doesn't work atm LMAO

[sonic cedar]

I don’t know why it does that either ughhh

and WHY only when I click a card???

Like??

[chrome widget]

Nope, I have to calculate it manually in update

[sonic cedar]

[chrome widget]

If you want I'll just shove my code at you when I get home

It's pretty generic

[tall apex]

perfectly normal balatro hand

[subtle merlin]

I have a joker that is supposed to check if a card is retriggered, and then return that card to the hand, and i used to have it working but something broke in testing and now it only does the first card played. I tried a fix earlier but it made it so that all cards, even non-retriggered ones, went back to the hand so long as a single card was retriggered. Thoughts?

[sonic cedar]

SAVIOR THANK YOU

[sonic cedar]

why don’t you just revert to the commit where it worked?

[subtle merlin]

No it isn't!

You have purple glass!

[tall apex]

you're right.,,, im a fraud.,

[sonic cedar]

where are the 8 bears

[tall apex]

pot of greed, draw 3

[sonic cedar]

you can’t do that thats cheating /ref

[tall apex]

YES I CAN THATS WHAT IT DOES

POT OF GREED DRAW 3

[subtle merlin]

I overwrote it while trying to do the fix that didn't work

[tall apex]

... roll my dice

[sonic cedar]

and I attack and I win right…?

[tall apex]

nuh uh

oo wait maybe i can get my silly to work today

[chrome widget]

ROLL MY DICE

I PLAY POT OF GREED

[tall apex]

enough spriting things ill code in 2 months, time to

code code,.,,,

[chrome widget]

I still have stuff to draw and I'm annoyed cause I hate drawing. I'm trying to divvy art out to as many other contributors as possible so I don't go crazy and have a depressive episode trying to do the art myself

[fresh saddle]

someone tell me, i will give you a very poorly drawn joker

[subtle merlin]

Also banned! 2005
-# (ik ik it's a different reference y'all are making :3)

[tall apex]

OMG I WOULD DO AN ART!! :3

[chrome widget]

Nice dbza ref

[chrome widget]

You'd have to join our server and get familiar with the source material which is a lot to ask lmao

[tall apex]

did it w/ cardsauce, im a professsional art student

[copper thorn]

hey, sorry to barge in but i was wondering, would you, the mod devs for balatro say that modding is hard or not ?

[maiden phoenix]

play mods or coding mods?

[copper thorn]

coding mods

[maiden phoenix]

If you mean coding, it you don't know lua, then it's like everything else, you'll have to learn a lot

[normal crest]

compared to other games, modding balatro is easy

[maiden phoenix]

Thankfully there's a lot of helpful guides, docs and refs

True from my experience

[copper thorn]

cus i wanted to make one for me and my friends with private jokes and all, but i'm completely lost x)

[subtle merlin]

Not from what i could find, you can try scouring #1209506514763522108 for that. However, there are mods that let you slow the game down even further, so you might be able to use those to a similar effect?

[maiden phoenix]

You should start by checking this out #1349064230825103441 message

[fresh saddle]

I'm trying to make a scoring animation that adds mult in a very specific timing
I'll look there, thanks

[worthy stirrup]

how do i get a boss blind to debuff a specific joker?

[daring fern]

How does one destroy a card bypassing everything?

[sonic cedar]

what do you mean it’s bypassing everything

[copper thorn]

ok, but the smods github "wiki" kidna lost me in it tbh

bu thanks i'll check the vids and all

[daring fern]

Bypassing anything that prevents the card from being destroyed / makes a copy of it before it is.

[maiden phoenix]

I think the wiki assumes you got the minimal amount of coding skill, that's how coding documentations goes

[tall apex]

i think i need some help w/ my code..,,

idk how to get started making a card go from one edition to the next

[sonic cedar]

couldnt you add something to the invincible () card that has it's destruction prevention apply as long as it's not due to the bypass?

[worthy stirrup]

bump

[daring fern]

A specific key or a specific card?

[worthy stirrup]

im trying to disable a joker, blueprint to be specific

[daring fern]

No, because I'm not the owner of these destroy prevention items.

[maiden phoenix]

Cryptid made a tag that destroys your joker but gives it back in shop with the next edition

Forgot its name tho

Also idk if it takes into account modded editions

[normal crest]

As for the first one, couldn't you copy what the remove function does (without actually using it in case other mods hooked into it or something)

[maiden phoenix]

Have you checked SMODS.destroy_cards?

[normal crest]

as for the 2nd one.......... sounds impossible, you'd have to remove all references to the card everywhere, and you can't really do that, at least afaik

or maybe I'm overthinking it

maybe you can just set it to nil

[daring fern]

That was what I started with yes.

[worthy stirrup]

I also do kinda want to be able to debuff the left most joker as well

[sonic cedar]

can you like put the joker keys in a table
and then the blind checks for if one of the jokers is blueprint
and if you have it it debuffs it

like if you took all the randomness out of crimson heart

[worthy stirrup]

the key for blueprint is j_blueprint right?

[sonic cedar]

[daring fern]

Yes, because they just hook card:remove

[fresh saddle]

Oh okay I figured this out actually.
Now, how can I change the name of a hand? is this a simple thing to do? or do I need to create a new mod that includes a custom hand

[worthy stirrup]

but i also dont know how to debuff a joker, i dont see anything on the wiki

[daring fern]

SMODS.debuff_card(card, true)

[worthy stirrup]

oh

[maiden phoenix]

Why don't you make your own card:remove? Because of possible crossmod issues?

[normal crest]

^ that's what I meant

the overthinking part was for the making the card unable to be copied before it's destroyed

[daring fern]

Yes, that's what I was referring to.

[normal crest]

and you can't do that unless you know where every reference to that card is and set all of them to nil

[thorn furnace]

Where do I set the icon?

[sonic cedar]

?

[normal crest]

I'm not understanding

[daring fern]

Have an atlas with modicon as the key

[thorn furnace]

okii
thanks

[sonic cedar]

can mod icons be animated

i dont think so but i figured id make sure

[daring fern]

They hook Card:remove and if it has the property they proceed but they make a copy first.

[daring fern]

No.

[sonic cedar]

ok got it

oh my god i came to ask a question and got wrapped up

why does this not score mult

[worthy stirrup]

    recalc_debuff = function(self, card, from_blind)
    SMODS.debuff_card(Card.get_id("blueprint"), true)
    end

i think im doing this wrong

[daring fern]

Card.get_id is for playing cards.

[worthy stirrup]

so what do i do for blueprint

[daring fern]

for k, v in pairs(SMODS.find_card("j_blueprint")) do
    SMODS.debuff_card(v, true)
end

[normal crest]

Honestly I don't see a way you can avoid other mods copying a card in general, maybe for that specific scenario you can have your mod be the last to load and override the remove function but even then that sounds very prone to errors

[worthy stirrup]

thank you

[worthy stirrup]

    set_blind = function(self)
        for k, v in pairs(SMODS.find_card("j_blueprint")) do
            SMODS.debuff_card(v, true)
        end
    end

[chrome widget]

What's the most effective way to send a calc context to 1 specific card?

I see the use of eval_card, but SMODS.calculate_card_areas returns some flags for another function

[daring fern]

card:calculate_joker(context) or eval_card(card, context) probably.

[karmic sand]

Hi I'm trying to add a custom consumable to the game, the consumable is in the game however upon entering a shop or when I was in a shop on a preloaded save re rolling causes a crash
I got these in the console before rerolling:

INFO - [G] ERROR LOADING GAME: Card area 'shop_vouchers' not instantiated before load
INFO - [G] ERROR LOADING GAME: Card area 'shop_jokers' not instantiated before load```
and then the crash, any help is appreciated!

[sonic cedar]

nvm I fixed it

[daring fern]

Those errors are not a problem.

[sonic cedar]

The former is normal but the latter….

[daring fern]

Code?

[thorn furnace]

Is there a way to change the upcoming boss blind for debug purposes

[sonic cedar]

lines 817-821

G.GAME.spectral_rate = G.GAME.spectral_rate or 0
local total_rate = G.GAME.joker_rate + G.GAME.playing_card_rate
for _,v in ipairs(SMODS.ConsumableType.ctype_buffer) do
    total_rate = total_rate + G.GAME[v:lower()..'_rate']
end

[sonic cedar]

reroll boss button if you have debug+

[thorn furnace]

where might one find this reroll boss button

[karmic sand]

I'll post soon my cat kidnapped me for food lol

[sonic cedar]

did you hold tab

[daring fern]

You press 3 while hovering over a blind in the collection.

[thorn furnace]

[sonic cedar]

if you want a specific boss though do what somecom said

you might have to hold ctrl if you dont have that setting disabled

[tall apex]

can i get a refresher on how set_edition works?

im prob not even gonna keep it bcos i have to do an upgrade system but rn i just want it to set an edition

[wintry solar]

card:set_edition('key of edition')

[sonic cedar]

and the 2 boolean params

silent and immediate iirc

[tall apex]

how would i make that affect every other joker than itself.,,?

[daring fern]

You would put every other joker in a table and iterate over it.

[sonic cedar]

have it go through every joker and skip itself i assume

[sonic cedar]

they could use G.jokers.cards for the table if it's about the area, no?

[daring fern]

Yes perhaps maybe?

[tall apex]

i don't think it needs to skip itself since it gets removed before this triggers

[sonic cedar]

well then

[daring fern]

Then you would iterate over G.jokers.cards

[tall apex]

hmm, okay I don't think i've done an iterate thingy in lua before

i've done it in C++ kinda

[daring fern]

for k, v in pairs(G.jokers.cards) do
    v:set_edition("e_modprefix_key")
end

[tall apex]

i'd ask more questions but i dont wanna be annoying . -.

[hasty mist]

i am so confused as to what is wrong here

lua extension is absolutely zero help

[chrome widget]

👀

I mean if you're willing we'd love to have you

[tall apex]

idk what k v or i do in any of these statementss x-x

[tall apex]

oh absolutely, i love doing spriteework to chill out

[chrome widget]

Hi hi! I have code for u!!!

[hasty mist]

its telling me to turn the = into a == when that is supposed to set the value, not check it

[sonic cedar]

[chrome widget]

I'll dm for it

[sonic cedar]

cool

[pulsar furnace]

is there a way to change blinds money reward?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[pulsar furnace]

how

[hasty mist]

literally all im trying to do is set card.ability.extra.active to false but the game doesnt like that for some reason

i am so confused 😭

[daring fern]

Change G.GAME.blind.dollars

[daring fern]

Remove it from the return.

[pulsar furnace]

in what context

[hasty mist]

but then wouldnt that make it below the return and not work anyways?

[daring fern]

Any time when in a blind?

[daring fern]

Put it in the func?

[pulsar furnace]

i have this but it only changes cash out, doesnt show the change

idk how to do it before selecting blind

[daring fern]

You have to do it in the blind before or in the shop before.

[pulsar furnace]

how

[daring fern]

Blind UI doesn't update unless it is removed and put back.

[pulsar furnace]

so how do i make it work correctly 😔

[final jewel]

I have a small question, I don't know why its never destroying the card like their is 1/3 chances to destroy the card if its a high card

[daring fern]

I think I got this to work.

[spice wadi]

so you want it to give you money before a blind?

[daring fern]

Use context.destroy_card

[pulsar furnace]

no

[spice wadi]

or its at the correct time but you want the animation or smth

i dont get the question

[pulsar furnace]

let me take pictures ingame

[daring fern]

Yes, you maybe possibly could also update the UI manually.

[pulsar furnace]

it could work

[spice wadi]

oh i think i get the question now

[pulsar furnace]

but the change is when selecting the blind, i dont think it will update before selecting blind

[spice wadi]

so youve changed the reward money but the amount of dollar signs shown is still the old number?

[wintry solar]

you can update G.GAME.current_round.dollars_to_be_earned

that will dynamically change the dollars in the ui

[pulsar furnace]

in what context do i use that

[wintry solar]

wherever you change the money

[pulsar furnace]

<@&1133519078540185692>

[karmic creek]

bang

[pulsar furnace]

i dont understand

how to update it

its a string value

[wintry solar]
