make every Spectral card spawned negative regardless?

[wild root]

Anyone have a mod that adds custom enhancements, that's easy to follow and understand how it's done?

[pastel kernel]

i will share the lua again

[daring fern]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/src/enhancements.lua

[stiff quiver]

thank you very much

[wild root]

Thx, I will check it out

[pastel kernel]

what is wrong with it?

why does it make negative spectral cards that take up space

[daring fern]

You're not doing card:add_to_deck()

[gilded blaze]

use SMODS.add_card instead
it has add_to_deck embedded inside

it's on wiki, but I'll crop the exact one you need

[worthy stirrup]

@daring fern does SMODS.calculate_effect allow for sounds to be played with it? if not, how could i add sounds to it?

[normal crest]

sound = "sound key"

[runic pecan]

It allows.

[daring fern]

It does, just put sound = "modprefix_soundkey" in it.

[worthy stirrup]

thank you

how do i call for a base game sound, im trying to do the tarot one

[daring fern]

You just put sound = "tarot1" or sound = "tarot2"

[worthy stirrup]

thank you

[lament agate]

@daring fern something's wrong with this code

it triggers for each cards held in hand

instead of

the joker itself

    config = { extra = {x = 5} },
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.end_of_round then
            return {
                dollars = G.GAME.dollars * card.ability.extra.x-1,
                message = "HECK.",
                message_card = card
            }
        end
    end
}

[daring fern]

and context.main_eval

[lament agate]

@formal parrot watch and learn

[formal parrot]

:D

I was about to say😭

I literally just found it lol

Thanks somethingcom515

[pastel kernel]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.discard and not context.blueprint and not card.ability.extra.discard_triggered then
            card.ability.extra.discard_triggered = true
            local total_created = 0
            G.GAME.consumeable_buffer = G.GAME.consumeable_buffer + card.ability.extra.cards_per_discard
            for _ = 1, card.ability.extra.cards_per_discard do
                local spectral_card = SMODS.add_card({set = "Spectral", area = G.consumeables, edition = "e_negative", key_append = "minos"})
                if spectral_card then
                    G.consumeables:emplace(spectral_card)
                    total_created = total_created + 1
                end
            end

do i write it like this?

[manic rune]

you dont need emplace

add_card already handles allat for you

[pastel kernel]

so remove G.consumables altogether?

[formal parrot]

All my homies use create_card

[manic rune]

remove G.consumeables:emplace(spectral_card), yes

[manic rune]

get out

🥀

[formal parrot]

Btw bepis

[pastel kernel]

and also total_created i guess?

[formal parrot]

I tried making something like

Certificate

But cards dont show

In the deck

[manic rune]

whats the code

did you try cross-referencing your code with vanillaremade's

[formal parrot]

Idk not on pc

[manic rune]

oof

[formal parrot]

Yeah

[manic rune]

unless you turn on bluetooth i cant help then :3

[formal parrot]

Arrrrr

If there like

A function im missing ?

Like emplace

I dont need to emplace them right ?

Ohhhhh

I got it

I was doing a for and

I have this outside the for

Thanks anyways bepis much love

Muah

[worthy stirrup]

How do i put a custom icon for my mod?

[gilded blaze]

SMODS.Atlas{
    key = "modicon",
    path = "icon.png", -- the file in BOTH assets/1x and assets/2x
    px = 32,
    py = 32
}

[worthy stirrup]

thank you

and thats all i need to set the icon

[pastel kernel]

OH MY G

IT WORKS

Ok now to add sound

since this is a legendary

[formal parrot]

Sound for what

[pastel kernel]

whenever minos gets upgraded, he grunts, whenever he's being used to mult, he goes JUDGEMENT

[paper zealot]

What's the conventionally "correct" size for a mod icon? I've seen both 32x32 and 34x34 used

[worthy stirrup]

why not both

[formal parrot]

How can you

Make a card dissolve

Like when its destroyed

And change its sorite

Sprite *

I assume draw step and draw shader

[lament agate]

why does my message disappea

r

[worthy stirrup]

i think 34 is a thing bc its the size of a tag

[lament agate]

did i send something or not

[formal parrot]

No

[lament agate]

discord fucking tweaking

[formal parrot]

Schizophrenic

[lament agate]

how do i move this little fella

[formal parrot]

🤷

[lament agate]

cooked

[formal parrot]

Ask

@minor magnet

[lament agate]

he's offline

cooked

[formal parrot]

Or @midnight coyote

[snow vale]

what context should i use to transform cards into a different suit?

[formal parrot]

Context.before or after

Depends on what you want after or before scoring

Logically after

[snow vale]

okk

[midnight coyote]

heya

what’s going on

[formal parrot]

Any idea ?

[midnight coyote]

ah! the title screen card is just a cardarea

not unlike G.jokers or G.hand

[daring fern]

G.title_top.cards[1].states.visible = false

[gilded blaze]

it's G.title_top btw

[formal parrot]

How can you add a card

To it

:D

[midnight coyote]

card:emplace(G.title_top)

[formal parrot]

Ty

[midnight coyote]

you can make a card with SMODS.create_card

[gilded blaze]

this is how I add Alice

[midnight coyote]

and then just assign the card object to a variable

[lament agate]

no smods needed?

[lament agate]

i see

[gilded blaze]

pretty cozy right?

[valid leaf]

Hi anyone knows how to change a sprite of card like when a hand is selected and is being played?

[midnight coyote]

i’m probably about to add a joker to the title screen

[formal parrot]

Yeppieee

[lament agate]

wait

where do you

write this

[paper zealot]

balatro modding smodsless%

[formal parrot]

BRO HE SEND THE FUCKING CODE JUST NOW

[lament agate]

the mod will break

[lament agate]

BUT WHERE

PUT WHERE

[formal parrot]

Main.lua

[lament agate]

thanks

[formal parrot]

Fym where 😭😭

Put it in .json 💀 that should work

[gilded blaze]

I put it inside lib/functions.lua
it's super messy there since I store both helper functions and hooks

[lament agate]

get rid of that critters

should be good

nevermind it crashed

HELP

[gilded blaze]

my code above isn't enough
add this too to make the card materialize along with Ace of Spades

[daring fern]

You need to put it in a hook.

[gilded blaze]

a hook to Game.main_menu

[near bay]

how to i set the hand counter to a number

[daring fern]

ease_hands_played((-G.GAME.current_round.hands_left)+number)

[lament agate]

-- Materialize the Joker
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
  trigger = "after",
  delay = 0,
  blockable = false
  blocking = false
  func = function()
    if change_context == "splash" then
        newcard.states.visible = true
        newcard:start_materialize({ G.C.WHITE, G.C.WHITE }, true, 2.5)
    else
        newcard.states.visible = true
        newcard:start_materialize({ G.C.WHITE, G.C.WHITE }, nil, 1.2)
    end
    return true
  end,
}))

hold on

[gilded blaze]

that event should also be inside the hook to Game.main_menu

[near bay]

the discard?

[lament agate]

how do you hook again

god i hate hooking

[gilded blaze]

[lament agate]

im writing this one too

hold

[worthy stirrup]

how could i replace the main menu colors and the card in the middle?

[daring fern]

ease_discard((-G.GAME.current_round.discards_left)+number)

[worthy stirrup]

i see a lot of other mods do it but im not sure how

[near bay]

lastly, money?

[gilded blaze]

to replace the color, do this inside the hook to Game.main_menu:

G.SPLASH_BACK:define_draw_steps({
    {
        shader = "splash",
        send = {
            { name = "time", ref_table = G.TIMERS, ref_value = "REAL_SHADER" },
            { name = "vort_speed", val = 0.4 },
            { name = "colour_1", ref_table = Sagatro, ref_value = "badge_colour" },
            { name = "colour_2", ref_table = G.C.RARITY, ref_value = 4 },
        },
    },
})

(use your own color by adjusting ref_table and ref_value of colour_1 and colour_2)

[worthy stirrup]

oh my

[daring fern]

ease_dollars((-G.GAME.dollars)+number)

[worthy stirrup]

just to be safe, did i hook correctly?

local oldmenu = Game.main_menu

function Game.main_menu()
    G.SPLASH_BACK:define_draw_steps({
        {
            shader = "splash",
            send = {
                { name = "time", ref_table = G.TIMERS, ref_value = "REAL_SHADER" },
                { name = "vort_speed", val = 0.4 },
                { name = "colour_1", ref_table = Sagatro, ref_value = "badge_colour" },
                { name = "colour_2", ref_table = G.C.RARITY, ref_value = 4 },
            },
        },
    })
    return oldmenu()
end

[lament agate]

-- Draw your Joker into the Main Menu with hooking
local gmm = Game.main_menu
Game.main_menu = function(change_context)
    local ret = gmm(change_context)

    local selected_card = "j_modprefix_key"
    local newcard = Card(
        G.title_top.T.x,
        G.title_top.T.y,
        G.CARD_W*1.1*1.2,
        G.CARD_H*1.1*1.2,

        G.P_CENTERS[selected_card],
        { bypass_discovery_center = true }
    )
    if not Cryptid then
        G.title_top.T.w, = G.title_top_T.w * 1.7675
        G.title_top.T.x, = G.title_top_T.x * 0.8
    end
    G.title_top:emplace(newcard)

    newcard.no_ui = true
    newcard.states.visible = false
    newcard.sticker_run = "NONE" --fuck the stake

[daring fern]

No, it should be Game.main_menu = function(change_context)

[gilded blaze]

that's about it
but it should be Game.main_menu(change_context)

[worthy stirrup]

which part

[lament agate]

i thnk its the

Game.main_menu = function(change_context)

instead of

function game

[near bay]

thank you!

[lament agate]

also this is how you color the background?

[worthy stirrup]

i think so

[gilded blaze]

@near bay yoo, survev tag, nice
I'm an OG survivr (not the current survev game, but rather the kongregate-copyrighted surviv.io)

I do return to survev once in a while to clear up the nostalgia

[near bay]

same here!

[lament agate]

wait

im dumb

[worthy stirrup]

what is a ref_table supposed to look like

like the data inside

[near bay]

how do i make a joker destroy itself?

[gilded blaze]

it's the color

[daring fern]

card:start_dissolve()

[worthy stirrup]

i understand but is there data inside of it?

[gilded blaze]

e.g. ref_table = G.C, ref_value = MULT

yea

[worthy stirrup]

ohh thats what that means

[gilded blaze]

a table of 4 real numbers ranging from 0 to 1 representing RGBA

[worthy stirrup]

how would i get a custom color in there then

or could i just put it in as a hex

or like... something

[gilded blaze]

Balatro's source code has HEX function

just plug in a hex value (just rgb, don't use rgba)

HEX('ff0000')

[worthy stirrup]

should the ref_table still be G.C?

or am i misunderstanding

[gilded blaze]

actually, ref_table and ref_value are used for when you're getting the values from a reference table

you might want to store your desire color inside a table

[tawdry oriole]

how could you make a consumable to add an edition to a selected card?

[gilded blaze]

something like G.C.YOUR_COLOUR = HEX('ff0000')

[worthy stirrup]

got it

[minor magnet]

im p sure that's a cardarea

tou should be able to move it like any other cardarea

[lament agate]

how

[gilded blaze]

if not Cryptid then
    G.title_top.T.w, = G.title_top_T.w * 1.7675
    G.title_top.T.x, = G.title_top_T.x * 0.8
end

this is for when Cryptid is not installed

also wait

[worthy stirrup]

G.C.color1 = HEX('ff0000')
G.C.color2 = HEX('4dcc8e')

local oldmenu = Game.main_menu

function Game.main_menu(change_context)
    G.SPLASH_BACK:define_draw_steps({
        {
            shader = "splash",
            send = {
                { name = "time", ref_table = G.TIMERS, ref_value = "REAL_SHADER" },
                { name = "vort_speed", val = 0.4 },
                { name = "colour_1", ref_table = G.C, ref_value = "Color1" },
                { name = "colour_2", ref_table = G.C, ref_value = "color2" },
            },
        },
    })
    return oldmenu()
end

[gilded blaze]

why is there a comma

[worthy stirrup]

oops, didnt mean to flood the chat

[gilded blaze]

wtf

[minor magnet]

changing G.title_top.T.x and y

[lament agate]

@gilded blaze

ah fuck the numbers

[worthy stirrup]

i copied what you had

[lament agate]

its 71 i promise

[split panther]

how does one create a specific joker

[gilded blaze]

if not Cryptid then
    G.title_top.T.w = G.title_top_T.w * 1.7675
    G.title_top.T.x = G.title_top_T.x * 0.8
end

[lament agate]

check #⚙・modding-general pinned

[gilded blaze]

this should have no comma

like wtf, I did not put those there

[worthy stirrup]

oh you were talking to them, oops lol

[red flower]

wdym

[lament agate]

fixed that

but it still crash the eof one

[gilded blaze]

that should also be inside the hook to Game.main_menu

[lament agate]

ah

[worthy stirrup]

bump :3

[gilded blaze]

also install lua extension for VS Code

that should help you fix any syntax errors

[turbid kite]

why would you use a font in your text editor / IDE that isn't monospaced

[split panther]

like if i wanted to create specifically jimbo and not a random joker

[gilded blaze]

local ret = oldmenu()
-- your hook here
return ret

[red flower]

you should return oldmenu(change_context) and also you're using Color1 instead of color1

[lament agate]

pardon me, is this better

[worthy stirrup]

yea, i fixed that part

[red flower]

what's the problem now

[turbid kite]

you're still not answering my question of why you would willingly do this

[lament agate]

my eyes my rules

[worthy stirrup]

1s, let me see if the other guys thing fixes it

[tawdry oriole]

i'm trying to make an "aura" type card but for a specific custom edition, it doesn't seem to work though

[red flower]

SMODS.add_card{key = "j_joker"}

[formal parrot]

Aura farming

[gilded blaze]

you know what
I give up
downgrades to phone so I respond to errors much slower

[pastel kernel]

Where do I post the original concept art of my spinel joker

[turbid kite]

but you posted in a channel that my eyes and everyone else's would also land on

[worthy stirrup]

sorry if i misunderstood, like this?

G.C.color1 = HEX('ff0000')
G.C.color2 = HEX('4dcc8e')
local oldmenu = Game.main_menu
local ret = oldmenu()
function Game.main_menu(change_context)
    G.SPLASH_BACK:define_draw_steps({
        {
            shader = "splash",
            send = {
                { name = "time", ref_table = G.TIMERS, ref_value = "REAL_SHADER" },
                { name = "vort_speed", val = 0.4 },
                { name = "colour_1", ref_table = G.C, ref_value = "color1" },
                { name = "colour_2", ref_table = G.C, ref_value = "color2" },
            },
        },
    })
    return ret
end

[split panther]

thanks

[gilded blaze]

oh, local ret = oldmenu(change_context)

don't forget the parameter

[formal parrot]

Code looks fine

[worthy stirrup]

thank you

[lament agate]

should be good now

[worthy stirrup]

should i also be returning the change_context

[gilded blaze]

no, it's done

[primal robin]

Is this the worst IDE design possible contest?

[formal parrot]

@tawdry oriole check for typo

[gilded blaze]

I've seen people using m6x11plus in IDE

[lament agate]

well id win with a heartbeat

[primal robin]

Thats crazy

[tawdry oriole]

none

[gilded blaze]

I've tried that and honestly it sucked

[valid leaf]

can't figure this out help

[gilded blaze]

the font in IDE not being monospace sucks a lot

[tawdry oriole]

bump, this is the edition's code - setting the desired edition to a vanilla one (i.e. foil) works perfectly

[red flower]

so mr. bones?

[near bay]

it works differently

actually wait i code check his code oops

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/77d318ecac627a90495d9b718baaec4faf21007d/src/jokers.lua#L3207

[worthy stirrup]

i have that in my code

[astral sun]

i can't figure out how to make a joker have an effect for when the hand is on fire, does someone here know ?

[worthy stirrup]

i just, use the two togetjer

[red flower]

both should have the reference to self

[manic rune]

is there a built in function for when you right click on a button (or just ui in general)

[turbid kite]

lmfao touché

[red flower]

the edition doesnt have the same key as the key youre using

[tawdry oriole]

oh my god

[red flower]

i dont think so

[tawdry oriole]

i am stupid

[manic rune]

gh

guess i have to code it in then

[red flower]

i hook the right click controller function for jokerdisplay

[manic rune]

do i use love function for this

oh

[red flower]

function Controller:queue_R_cursor_press(x, y)

[manic rune]

i see

[lament agate]

which res does modicon use again

[manic rune]

34x34, i think

[worthy stirrup]

34 if you want to use the tag base

[lament agate]

does someone have

blank tag

i can use

[worthy stirrup]

i can get one

[lament agate]

would be nice

[red flower]

https://github.com/balamod/aseprite-balamod-extension/blob/main/extension-src/Images/Tag-Base.png ?

[lament agate]

thanks

[pastel kernel]

so i just got rid of a specific code which limits my discards to give only 2 negative spectrals every discard, BUT it conflicts with retrigger jokers.

firstly, how do you make it so that you get 2 spectral cards every discard?
secondly, i might keep this as an unnerfed version.

[lament agate]

modicon also needs 1x?

[red flower]

afaik, yes

[lament agate]

check what happened in #⚙・modding-general

[red flower]

crazy

[lament agate]

idk what caused that

im keeping it

[worthy stirrup]

just to be safe, am i grabbing the ID correctly?
if context.other_card:is_suit('Hearts') and context.other_card.id == 18 then

i just realized i put 18

instead of 8

[red flower]

:get_id()

[worthy stirrup]

oh

one last question, how can i get a card to retrigger 4 times

[red flower]

return repetitions = 4 in context.repetition

[formal parrot]

N coding

[red flower]

encoding

[worthy stirrup]

thank you

[formal parrot]

:P

4 times is a lot no?

[worthy stirrup]

i changed it to 3 just now

[normal dune]

someone can help me with this error?

[formal parrot]

Mhm understandable

[worthy stirrup]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.play then
            if context.other_card:is_suit('Hearts') and context.other_card:get_id() == 8 then
                return {
                    repetitions = 3
                }
            end
        end
    end,

[formal parrot]

Looks good

[normal dune]

the line 196 is the line 75

[formal parrot]

You been modding for a while flote

Take a rest

[worthy stirrup]

ive got one joker left to do

[red flower]

ur } is red

[normal dune]

i have to remove that?

[red flower]

yes

youre also missing an end,

[red flower]

what editor are you using

[normal dune]

notepad++

[hidden sable]

show us line 145

[native zinc]

uh oh.

[red flower]

I'd recommend switching to vscode and downloading the lua extension

[hidden sable]

i use notepad++ it works just fine

[hidden sable]

just send us line 145

[normal dune]

line 145 'if bonus > 0 then return bonus end,'

[red flower]

you might be a better programmer, but I'd rather help them have less syntax errors

[normal dune]

i will use microsoft code

[red flower]

the end was fine there, but you also needed a end, below that

[native zinc]

hey is it fine if i lovely dump here

[north lodge]

it works fine yes, but you get A LOT less information that VSCode would give you and it would make solving basic syntax errors infinitely easier. Not to mention the incredible search features and flexibility that vscode gives.

[worthy stirrup]

how could i check how many hearts my full deck has?

[summer creek]

how do i make my jokers go past the vanilla cap? eg more than E401 mult

[native zinc]

practice the dark arts of talisman (unrecommended)

[red flower]

check how cloud 9 checks for 9s and do that for hearts

[worthy stirrup]

will do, thanks

[summer creek]

where do i start 🥰

[north lodge]

Find the Talisman mod

[red flower]

you might need to remove the previous card too

[native zinc]

ughhh yeah

how do i do that again

[red flower]

card:remove()

[native zinc]

well that's 1 of 2 problems fixed

i should uhhh

hm

[red flower]

what's the name of the function again

[native zinc]

yeah i got no clue i probably need to change a value

[red flower]

you probably need to emplace it and add the shop ui

[native zinc]

it's create_card_for_shop in UI_definitions

oh i see what is wrong

i need to actually create the card,,

i'll do it tmrw

[formal parrot]

Hey

What’s the key for hologram shader

anyone here have a Mac and want to help me try out something on it? I am trying to see if I can get my version of the brainstorm mod "Brainstorm-Rerolled" working on a mac

[coarse plank]

how would I make a consumable that would give chips to next played hand?

[tawdry oriole]

is there a simplified tool to create custom shaders?

[sonic cedar]

can anyone explain how blueprint_effect works? like the details? cause i cant seem to get it working,,

[gleaming yew]

is it easy to make a tarot card that changes the rank AND suit of a card to a random available rank and suit (including modded ones)?

[sonic cedar]

i probably shouldve sent the code actually
whoops

[sonic cedar]

should be in theory, just combine sigil and ouija

do note those go by the entire hand, so you'll have to do some tinkering

[main minnow]

trying to make a joker with the effect "glass kings never shatter" - seemingly the function that handles glass breaking is in state_events.lua but i have no idea how to access or manipulate that

[faint yacht]

...you should be able to hook G.P_CENTERS['m_glass'].calculate and do your thing there.

I once again am calling upon anyone who feels confident with UI stuff to try and assist me with the problem I am struggling with at the moment.

[hard mica]

so i got a joker that does different effects every ante , and i wanna add +2 hands but im not sure how, i tried it like that but it just keeps adding to the hands for some reason

[nova eagle]

does anybody know why sprite sheet is doing the funny?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1384908443474858105/1384996883944177714/sprite_sheet_1.png?ex=6856709d&is=68551f1d&hm=a5d65e3bda649e5931b06b159150b31f8af8c32e722cf376de42c7c7ddeb3cbe&

there shouldnt be any issues with it

[worthy stirrup]

might not be the right size

71 x 95 for a single joker

142 x 190 for the x2 version

[hard mica]

Anyone know?

[late shadow]

does anyone know how to add custom sound effects to scoring?,
what im trying to do is have a sound effect play on each retrigger that a certain joker does

[idle plaza]

Which context does this code run in? This small code snipper can only say so much.

(Also there's an ease_hands_played function that works the same way as ease_discards

[hard mica]

not a single context , i wasnt sure which context i should use so yeah

[wind steppe]

how do i get it to show x1 instead of xnil

[late shadow]

can you show the local var?

wait im stupid

i mean, show the local text, config, and local variables

depends if the way u code jokers differs to me tho

[wind steppe]

madness isnt my joker

its vanilla

[late shadow]

ohh

awesome fucking deck concept btw LOL

[wind steppe]

whats weird is x0.5 is still there

but x1 isnt

[late shadow]

0.5 is a flat value that doesnt change

[wind steppe]

fair enough

wait what if i just copy the vanillaremade code and take ownership of madness

[late shadow]

the x1 is subject to change, so thats why
tho im not sure what u could do about that, besides just making a duplicate of the joker to show that joker's bio/stats instead, and just replace the xnil into x0

the "fake" madness would jsut be serve as that visual thing

[daring fern]

No, you just put config = {} in the info_queue

[late shadow]

ah that makes more sense then

[daring fern]

{key = "j_madness", set = "Joker", config = {}}

[wind steppe]

its not info_queue though

its the hoverable text

it shows up like this cause i have galdur

[late shadow]

would u happen to also know how i can do this @daring fern

[daring fern]

Yes.

[daring fern]

You would probably make your own localization entry then.

[wind steppe]

how would i do that?

[daring fern]

j_madness_fixed={
    name="Madness",
    text={
        "When {C:attention}Small Blind{} or {C:attention}Big Blind{}",
        "is selected, gain {X:mult,C:white} X0.5 {} Mult",
        "and {C:attention}destroy{} a random Joker",
        "{C:inactive}(Currently {X:mult,C:white} X1 {C:inactive} Mult)",
    },
},

[hard mica]

anyone know how i could do it?

[idle plaza]

Use context.setting_blind

Context is essentially required, otherwise your code effectively runs under every possible context.

[hard mica]

that worked perfectly

thanks

[late shadow]

areu able to help with this now by chance?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[late shadow]

should i show the code for the joker or is that not needed

[daring fern]

Is the "certain joker" you're referring to one that you've made?

[late shadow]

yes

it retriggers played hearts twice

[daring fern]

Put sound = "modprefix_soundkey" in the return with the retriggers.

[late shadow]

ooh ty

i will try

it works!!!

the other thing thats needed for the joker is that the texture changes every time it retriggers, would i just o something like "texture = _" ?

[sturdy compass]

That’s a lot more tricky lol

[daring fern]

No, are the textures on the same atlas?

[late shadow]

brb

[nova eagle]

yeah, thats the size i'm using

although i think we have it simplified so that it only needs the 2x

but we are using 142x190 for each joker

[sturdy compass]

That’s not a big problem, I do that too lol

[vast bough]

does anybody have any examples of jokers that have two different outcomes with different probabilities attached to them? like 1/4 chance to give +20 mult 1/20 chance to give +500 chips, that kinda thing. basically lucky card but joker code

[daring fern]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/src/enhancements.lua#L78 ?

[nova eagle]

you could probably use the code for wheel of fortune as a reference... although there is a mod that adds d6 jokers which may also be useful to you

actually i think cryptid has battle bus, which has a chance at +50 mult, or -50 mult instead

[vast bough]

thank you both, i had a look at the vanilla remade for lucky but i was wondering how it would look for specifically jokers, i will check out the d6 joker and battle bus i appreciate it

[daring fern]

You would change context.main_scoring and context.cardarea == G.play to the context you want it to happen, all code of centers are mostly the same.

[vast bough]

yeah, it has to be super generic code lol because its for jokerforge haha. currently the random chance modifier you can add to effects is a bit broken because it does not factor in more than one effect to the random chance. need to figure out a way to gather each effect, along with their associated random chance, and execute them basically one after another while also taking into consideration that effects with the same random chance should be grouped together

[late shadow]

alright im back now, is it possible to make it a gif by chance?

[daring fern]

No.

You can animate things though.

[late shadow]

oh ok thats fine then

i can do that

yup dude 😭

[vast bough]

wow im definitely clicking on that

[late shadow]

GUYS! FREE BALATRO!

ok so how would i go about doing the animated part

im not sure how itd exactly work, i can imagine how to do it for 1 frame but not for a full animation

My goat fr

[karmic creek]

u got it

[stoic fulcrum]

is there a variant of G.hand.cards[i].base.nominal that counts the base chips a card gives with bonuses included? (for example, hiker, foil, stone or bonus)
if so, how would i go about using it

trying to make a joker that adds the value of all chips of the cards held in hand

so for example if you have 5 king foils held in hand then you get +60 chips for each(foil 50 + base value 10)

[daring fern]

card:get_chip_bonus() + ((card.edition and card.edition.chips) or 0)

[wheat jewel]

I'm trying to make a joker create a random skip tag with a lovely path but i'm getting consistent crashes

how do I fix this?

[daring fern]

Why does the set_ability completely break Balatro and almost crash my computer?

[stoic fulcrum]

doesn't seem to be working at least the way i have it set up right now
i'm assuming it's counting all cards as 0 chips since they do toggle

[hidden sable]

how can i turn

local card_to_destroy = pseudorandom_element(G.jokers.cards, 'random_destroy')
        SMODS.calculate_effect({message = "Cleansed"}, card_to_destroy)
        delay(.3)
        SMODS.destroy_cards(card_to_destroy)    
        delay(.7)
        G.GAME.blind:disable()

into a function that is like destroy_random_joker(1) and also checks for eternal stickers

[daring fern]

context.other_card not card

[stoic fulcrum]

on card = card?
so card = context.other_card

[hidden sable]

minus the effect

[daring fern]

No.

[hidden sable]

and disable blind

[daring fern]

On the code I gave you.

[hidden sable]

local card_to_destroy = pseudorandom_element(G.jokers.cards, 'random_destroy')
SMODS.destroy_cards(card_to_destroy)    

basically jsut this

[wheat jewel]

bumping this

[hidden sable]

but checks for eternal seal

not my question

[hidden sable]

how do i destroy a random joker, that doesnt have eternal

[stoic fulcrum]

yep that did the trick, thank you

[daring fern]

Why are you setting _tag to a UI element?

[wheat jewel]

Someone provided the code, idk how it really works

i assume it's trying to get a tag through some UI check but idk

[daring fern]

No.

[stoic fulcrum]

also bump to this
genuinely no idea why this doesn't work with blueprint

[wheat jewel]

what would be the best way to generate a random tag

cuz my joker crashes when trying generating a planet card upgrade tag cuz the game doesn't know what hand the tag is allocated to

atleast thats what someone playtesting my mod said

[daring fern]

add_tag(Tag(pseudorandom_element(G.P_TAGS, "seed").key))?

[hidden sable]

how do i check if a joker has an eternal sticker

[daring fern]

if card.ability.eternal

[wheat jewel]

Like this correct?

[snow vale]

how can i edit the sell value?

[daring fern]

card.sell_cost = number

[snow vale]

inside calculate right?

[daring fern]

When do you want to do it?

[royal ridge]

that is not meant to be a value you write to

card:set_cost() will override any changes

[daring fern]

Yes.

[snow vale]

i want a joker that when you sell it, you pay instead of buying it (negative sell value), and that each time i do so, it costs more selling it

[daring fern]

Then you would hook Card:set_cost()

[royal ridge]

that yeah

[snow vale]

ok ill try

[wheat jewel]

i got a crash

[hidden sable]

my logic checks out right?

function destroy_random_joker(count) -- Helper for some cards
    local jokers_to_pwn = {}
    for 1, count do
        for _, joker in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
            if not joker.ability.eternal then
                jokers_to_pwn[#jokers_to_pwn+1] = joker
            end
        end
        local card_to_destroy = pseudorandom_element(G.jokers.cards, 'random_destroy')
        SMODS.destroy_cards(card_to_destroy) 
    end
end

[daring fern]

Update SMODS

[wheat jewel]

like download a new update?

[daring fern]

No, it would be for i=1, count do

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hidden sable]

k

everything else is fine right

[daring fern]

Yes.

[thorn basin]

I wanted to display in the message the value of the chip_mod but for some reason it doesn't display it.
(it displays "#2#" instead)
how can I fix this?

[daring fern]

message = '+'..card.ability.extra.chip_mod..' chips!',

[hidden sable]

how can i modify this check

return G.jokers and #G.jokers.cards > 0 and #G.jokers.cards < G.jokers.config.card_limit and G.GAME.blind.boss

to count jokers with eternal as "invisible"

like there has to be at least 1 non eternal joker

[hidden sable]

#<value># is only for loc_txt as far as i know

[wheat jewel]

it works fine for other tages but orbital tags cause a crash due to not knowing what hand to upgrade

[thorn basin]

I see

[thorn basin]

just for curiosity, why is it required to put two dots after the '+' and before the ' chips!'?

[daring fern]

local jokers = {}
for k, v in pairs(G.jokers.cards) do
    if not v.ability.eternal then
        table.insert(jokers, v)
    end
end
return #jokers > 0 and #jokers < G.jokers.config.card_limit and G.GAME.blind.boss

[hidden sable]

two dots stands for string add in lua

[thorn basin]

ooooh

[daring fern]

To concatenate the strings.

[thorn basin]

thx for the help!

[faint yacht]

the .ability.orbital_hand is not defined properly.

[snow vale]

what do i modify from Card:set_cost() in the hook?

[daring fern]

card.sell_cost

[snow vale]

ok

[wheat jewel]

What should i do to define it properly?

like set the orbital hand to a psuedoseed of random poker hands or smthn?

if thats the case how would that look code-wise?

[faint yacht]

...I think just calling :set_ability() on it could work, due to

function Tag:set_ability()
    local obj = SMODS.Tags[self.key]
    local res
    if obj and obj.set_ability and type(obj.set_ability) == 'function' then
        obj:set_ability(self)
    end
    if self.name == 'Orbital Tag' then
        if G.orbital_hand then 
            self.ability.orbital_hand = G.orbital_hand
        elseif self.ability.blind_type then
            if G.GAME.orbital_choices and G.GAME.orbital_choices[G.GAME.round_resets.ante][self.ability.blind_type] then
                self.ability.orbital_hand = G.GAME.orbital_choices[G.GAME.round_resets.ante][self.ability.blind_type]
            end
        end
    end
end

[daring fern]

‎

[wheat jewel]

so put this in place of the add tag function or have it placed before the add_tag call?

[faint yacht]

You need to "add" the tag itself first... but also reference it for :set_ability()

[coarse plank]

is there a context for a lucky card not triggering?

[wheat jewel]

like this?

[daring fern]

context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and not context.other_card.lucky_trigger

[wind steppe]

whats the key for space joker?

[daring fern]

j_space

[faint yacht]

...you are not meant to just flatly copy what I posted-- instead, you could probably set a local variable to the randomly selected Tag, then add_tag it and call :set_ability() on the variable?

[gleaming yew]

How do I get the code for something in basegame?

[wind steppe]

why does space joker still work?

its meant to do nothing

[red flower]

try returning nil, true

[gleaming yew]

Like Sigil and Ouija

[wind steppe]

vanillaremade

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

[snow vale]

ok this aint working :(

[daring fern]

You need to hook Card:set_cost

It doesn't take parameters.

[snow vale]

oh

then ig this is wrong

[daring fern]

Yes, that hook is doing nothing.

[snow vale]

yay

then uh

how can i make it work

[daring fern]

local oldsetcost = Card.set_cost
function Card:set_cost()
    local g = oldsetcost(self)
    if self.config.center.key == "j_modprefix_key" then self.sell_cost = number end
    return g
end

[snow vale]

tysm

wait a sec, so in the hook do i have i have to customise each joker that interacts with that hook?

[daring fern]

What do you mean?

[snow vale]

i mean for this

[daring fern]

You would change that to the joker key you want to set the sell value of.

[snow vale]

yeah that's what i mean

also, how can i make so the joker i create after selling has different sell values?

so it costs more to sell every time you sell it

[daring fern]

You would put it in the center and refer to that.

[snow vale]

ok

[stoic fulcrum]

is there a way to manipulate booster pack rng?
i'm trying to make a joker that makes buffoon packs free, but they can only pull common jokers

[daring fern]

Yes.

[stoic fulcrum]

how would i go about doing that, can't find a good mod to reference

[tawdry oriole]

sigma

[daring fern]

Hook create_card

[modern schooner]

Hello guys hope I am not bothering you but I have bug with my balatro mod here is the error file can someone help me ?

[wheat jewel]

Someone earlier told me to make a function that sets the orbital tag poker hand to prevent a crash but the tag still displays as "Upgrade [poker hand] by 3 levels" and crashes afterward

should i set the function to happen before adding the tag?

[chrome widget]

To give a stronger explanation, when localization files are initially loaded, the text is parsed and organized into tables indicating the style information for each "part". So when string messages are used, you're just giving it a flat string, rather than the parsed information that the UI typically uses

[daring fern]

Remove add_tag then do local tag = Tag(...) then after that do tag:set_ability() then do add_tag(tag)

[wheat jewel]

Ok i think i'm getting it now

makes sense

i'll test it rn

[daring fern]

Remove the Tag:set_ability function you're overwriting.

[wheat jewel]

wait from where?

Why should I do that?

[daring fern]

Because you're overwriting an important function.

[wheat jewel]

Oh i seee

So what should I do to prevent orbital tag from crashing my game then when spawned by my joker?

[tardy juniper]

is there a way to detect if any joker at all has been triggered?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[daring fern]

Did that not fix it?

[wheat jewel]

Nope

still displays "Upgrade [poker hand] by 3 levels" then crashes when being used

idk what to do

[tardy juniper]

how?

[daring fern]

During scoring or at all during the run?

[snow vale]

what could this crash mean?

[daring fern]

It means you're putting an invalid center in to a function.

[snow vale]

i see

so, is there sth wrong here?

[daring fern]

Is you're mod prefix ub and the key flowey?

[snow vale]

yeah

[tardy juniper]

during scoring

[daring fern]

Replace self with the card you are checking:

[tardy juniper]

huh...

[wheat jewel]

Bumping this

[thorn basin]

Question: how can I make the sound's pitch be not modified?
Cuz for some reason if you add a preset or custom sound the game automatically lowers that sound.

[daring fern]

No, it is normal pitch, the game just lowers foil2 when playing it usually.

[thorn basin]

...you sure? cuz when the game played that sound I heard it lower than usual

oh, now you edited the message

[thorn basin]

welp, in any case is there a way to slightly modify the pitch of the sound? (if not that's ok)

[mild grove]

does anyone know the if G.GAME.Big_Blind is real or no?

reason why the orbital tag isn't set to spawn after defeating the boss blind is because the game crash, so i'm trying to figure out how to set it to either big blinds or small blinds

[wheat jewel]

I think it’s if G.GAME.Blind == “Big”?

[mild grove]

Hm, lemme try it, if it works i'll let you know

[mild grove]

Alright it gave me the tag after defeating a small blind

[viral ember]

so I have this in my challenge which loads but the 10s are blank?

            -- 10s
            { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = '10' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = '10' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = '10' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = '10' },
            -- Jacks
            { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'J' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'J' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'J' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'J' },
            -- Queens
            { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'Q' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'Q' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'Q' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'Q' },
            -- Kings
            { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'K' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'K' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'K' }, { s = 'balalalatro_B', r = 'K' },

[lament agate]

how do you detect how many jokers are in your slots?

[viral ember]

look at stencil joker

[hasty mist]

how would i apply a scored_card.ability attribute to a joker using a sticker

[daring fern]

pitch = number in the return.

[viral ember]

WHY IS THE RANK KEY "T"?!?!?

[daring fern]

G.GAME.blind:get_type() == "Big"

[viral ember]

10 IS VALID, 0 IS VALID, HELL EVEN 1 WOULD'VE BEEN VAILD, BUT T????
anyways thanks!

[mild grove]

ah thank you

[wheat jewel]

Does that mean it worked properly?

Nevermind my bad

[wheat jewel]

Does anyone know how to prevent orbital tags from crashing?

Maybe i could make set_ability to a new name to not overwrite set_ability

i guess??

[daring fern]

No.

Because that is literally what the function does.

Look at tag.lua in the lovely dump.

[wheat jewel]

I see

so how do i make sure the orbital tag doesn't mess up and crash

Do i just do this?

[wooden nexus]

Your jacks have no pip

Also try T, i may be wrong

[viral ember]

I

[viral ember]

.

[wild root]

Does anyone know, how to change the enhancement of a card "after" it scored, 'couse in my code it changes visualy just after playing it (before it scores), but functionaly as it should (after scoring), is there any way to stop the visual change of a card or smth?

[daring fern]

What is the goal?

[wild root]

Change the enhancement visually still in hand, like golden mask, but my custom enhancement itself changes into other one

without jokers

[errant fulcrum]

Where's the documentation on take_ownership?

[mild grove]

Damn, it still crashes, even when making it spawn on a small blind, a big blind and a boss blind

[daring fern]

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

[mild grove]

the orbital tag, just doesn't like being spawned by a joker

[errant fulcrum]

Thank you

[daring fern]

Yes.

You have to set_ability it.

[lucid owl]

when a joker is added or removed from the deck, how could i loop through all cards... in general in order to call :set_cost() on them?

all sellable cards need to have their sell cost recalculated

[mild grove]

do all my jokers need a set_ability or in this case, of the Orbital Tag needing a set_ability

[nova eagle]

is there anywhere i can look through balatro's vanilla source code?

[daring fern]

Yes, by extracting the exe

[mild grove]

if you have 7zip, you can extract the .exe file

[nova eagle]

do i need 7zip? or will winrar work?

[daring fern]

Both work.

[nova eagle]

ok cool, thanks

[lucid owl]

i suppose looping through G.consumeables.cards, G.jokers.cards, and G.shop_jokers.cards will work basically the same..

[lament agate]

how do you apply discount for shops

if you have a joker

that does that

[lucid owl]

what does it do specifically?

you'll probably need to patch Card:set_cost(), that's what all of my shop-related jokers do

[lament agate]

it just halves the shop prices, just like clearance or liquidation

[lament agate]

i see

[daring fern]

G.GAME.discount_percent = 50

[lucid owl]

scratch this, different from what i thought you meant

[wheat jewel]

bumping this

[thorn furnace]

Chat I need yalls opinions as programmers
Which do u prefer, sorting everything into its own file or writing everything in one single file

I see the second one done a lot and I don't get it

[lucid owl]

sort no matter what

[lament agate]

thanls

[lucid owl]

an entire huge file is awful

[hasty mist]

one single file imo is horrible practice

[mild grove]

Is this how i use set_ability ?

[north swallow]

it gets annoying real fast

scrolling all the time

[mild grove]

just want to stop the Orbitial tag from crashing the game

[hasty mist]

i just do this

[north swallow]

yeah best practice im pretty sure

[thorn furnace]

I don't think many people in this community really do much best practice
I mean documenting code is also best practice

[hasty mist]

this is probably the neatest part of my code

[north swallow]

TRUEE

[hasty mist]

since this mod is my first ever coding practice theres some horrifying stuff in my code

[north swallow]

same here

[hasty mist]

like this

[thorn furnace]

tru

[north swallow]

my code is just a giant house of cards waiting to come crashing down if i dare to modify it

[thorn furnace]

Ive had to refactor my code like three times

just getting used to lua

[north swallow]

THE "if not AST then AST = ast" IS SO REAL

[hasty mist]

LOL

[north swallow]

if it aint broke dont fix it

[thorn furnace]

tbf that's how it's done when it's interpreted

[north swallow]

yeah tru

[hasty mist]

theres also this shit in my game.start_run hook

not proud of this one

but setting it to 0 just didnt work

😭

[north swallow]

WHATT

[thorn furnace]

i need to test something

[north swallow]

peak code

[thorn furnace]

I'm fairly certain lua doesn't have overloading

[hasty mist]

what is overloading

[thorn furnace]

changing what + and - means

[urban wasp]

i would like it to display "Exotic 2" then the joker it is a sidegrade of

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hasty mist]

😭

[urban wasp]

would this be too complicated

[thorn furnace]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/operators/operator-overloading

[daring fern]

Probably.

[urban wasp]

damn i'll think about doing that later then

[north swallow]

i have defined local xscale and yscale over like 300 times and i still havent bothered to add a global to do it

[thorn furnace]

it's basically just the ability to define what the different operators mean for different types
So like with bignum for example, you're not stuck doing a.add(b) instead of a + b

[mild grove]

I need some help stopping the Orbitial Tag from crashing the game after being spawned when defeated ANY BLIND, weather i set it to Boss, Big or Small.

i have no clue how to use set_ability

[hasty mist]

im currently working on this but its having some issues

[thorn furnace]

this seems like it'd need a patch to the scoring function

[daring fern]

A hook is sufficient.

[hasty mist]

firstly i dont know how to actually apply the sticker to a joker, secondly i actually have the hook i need for it, but i dont know how to actually trigger it using this code

[hasty mist]

i actually have all the code necessary in theory

[thorn furnace]

hooks are iffy with me

[hasty mist]

just a bit stuck on some stuff

[daring fern]

SMODS.Stickers["modprefix_key"]:apply(card, true)

[daring fern]

You would check if the key is for example mult or h_mult or mult_mod and change it to xmult or xmult_mod

[mild grove]

okay, it seems like some of the Tag jokers might crash the game

so i need to find who crashes and who is safe

[daring fern]

Then you would call the original function.

[hasty mist]

i already have the hook doing all of that, i just dont know how to have the sticker apply scored_card.ability.ast_semiconductor (as seen in the image i sent) to the joker it's on

[daring fern]

The problem seems to be that it is calling context.debuff_card so it goes infinitely.

[daring fern]

#💻・modding-dev message

[hasty mist]

yes that is how i applied the sticker to the joker, i am trying to get it to actually trigger the hook

as you can see, the hook is supposed to trigger if scored_card.ability.ast_semiconductor

[daring fern]

Is the problem that it wouldn't trigger on cards that trigger on playing cards?

[tawdry oriole]

any clues why this happens? my atlas is defined normally as per literally any other atlas i've done

[hasty mist]

No, i'm trying to get the sticker to apply scored_card.ability.ast_semiconductor to the joker it gets put on, so that the hook can recognize that and trigger specifically on jokers that have the sticker

[daring fern]

It should do that when you apply it?

[wheat jewel]

Trying to make sure orbital tag actually works when generating a random skip tag but I have no clue how to prevent it from crashing because it doesn't give orbital tag a specific hand to upgrade

[daring fern]

Also it still wouldn't trigger on playing cards?

[north swallow]

that error usually appears because the file path you gave to the atlas is invalid or doesnt exist

[pure salmon]

is this correct for talisman?

[hasty mist]

it doesn't

[daring fern]

Is your prefix ast and the key semiconductor?

[wheat jewel]

bump

[daring fern]

No, it would be to_number(to_big(G.GAME.dollars)) / 2

[pure salmon]

does that round it to an integer?

[daring fern]

No, you would put that in the math.floor

[pure salmon]

oh i see

[wheat jewel]

does anyone know what causes orbital tags to not function when spawned by a joker, if so how can i fix it because i've been having this issue for about an hour now

[idle plaza]

What exactly does your Atlas look like? We can't tell if it really is correct or not if all you show is the error.

[errant fulcrum]

How can I make it so that buffoon packs only spawn modded jokers? I'm using SMODS.Booster:take_ownership_by_kind but I'm not sure what arguments to use for in_pool

[daring fern]

Try looking at Modded Pack from morefluff

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/bfe4f9bfc4d38135c652aeed94b0942ad0a1f736/src/utils.lua#L242

[hasty mist]

having some trouble applying a sticker, what else do i need in addition to this?

[daring fern]

How does one fix a card from moving when selected when set_ability is being used on it often?

[red flower]

what's the trouble? a crash? it doesn't apply?

[hasty mist]

doesn't apply

[daring fern]

You may have put an extra s on semiconductor

[hasty mist]

no thats the key for the sticker

[red flower]

you're applying the sticker on the consumable itself

[hasty mist]

its to differentiate from the consumable of the same name

[hasty mist]

i see that would make sense, how would i apply it to the selected joker then?

[daring fern]

G.jokers.highlighted[1]

[hasty mist]

hm

[errant fulcrum]

Where in the world in the files am I supposed to find this

Its not in the MoreFluff.lua

[real night]

basically i wanna make a joker that gives the base chips and mult of flush

[hasty mist]

i dont really understand the implementation here

[north swallow]

how would i make it so the description shows the next card to be drawn?

(as this just shows an ERROR in the description)

[daring fern]

Replace card with G.jokers.highlighted[1]

[daring fern]

G.GAME.hands["Flush"].chips and G.GAME.hands["Flush"].mult

[real night]

thanks!

[mild grove]

well, I found the Tag Jokers that crashed the gane

[real night]

oh yeah would this go in config or the return thing

[daring fern]

It would go where you want to give the mult and chips.

[north swallow]

return

something like mult_mod = G.GAME.hands["Flush"].mult

[real night]

alright thanks

[daring fern]

No.

mult = G.GAME.hands["Flush"].mult

[north swallow]

mult_mod and mult do the same though

personal preference

[daring fern]

No, mult_mod doesn't have a message.

mult does.

[north swallow]

oh wow

didnt know that

[real night]

isnt mult_mod for scaling stuff

[daring fern]

No, mult_mod is for when you want a custom message.

[mild grove]

No clue why the Orbitial tag and the Standerd Tag crashes the game. After being spawned when Boss blind is defeated.

[pure salmon]

how do i set the starting deck size for jokers like erosion?

[daring fern]

G.GAME.starting_deck_size = number

Is there a way to make using Card:set_ability multiple times every time something is calculated be less lag inducing?

[unborn bay]

why do you need to call set_ability anyway

[daring fern]

I'm trying to improve my all in one joker.

Is there a better way?

[uncut cloud]

alright hello people
im trying to make a card enhancement that copies the card played before it
does anyone know what im doing wrong here that im not noticing? its pretty late for me and i may be missing something

[daring fern]

It would be assert(SMODS.change_base(context.scoring_hand[my_pos], get_suit))

[red flower]

also change_base takes rank keys not IDs

[uncut cloud]

ah

thanks a lot

[wheat jewel]

How can i make orbital tags work properly when making a random skip tag, cuz i'm getting crashes because the game doesn't know what hand to assign when the joker generates an orbital tag

[red flower]

i sent u a link : (

here #💻・modding-dev message

[nova eagle]

I'm planning on making a debug console... and i just have a couple of questions. is it possible to spawn jokers with their name, not their key? i want the console to be compatible with all mods, and have no clue if you'd need the key to know which joker to spawn

[daring fern]

‎

[nova eagle]

actually this is a dum question... cryptid has a code card that does that.

[unkempt thicket]

Anyone know how to rescale a soul sprite? It's not scaling with the rest of the card.

[paper zealot]

Are you aware of https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1228149931257237664 and https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1381764398242336839 ?

[nova eagle]

i was not... i'll check them out and see if they have everything i'm looking for

thank you

[paper zealot]

DebugPlus is especially well-made with a bunch of neat additional features, it's basically a must-have for mod development imo

[hallow forge]

WOAH

oh dang

that was fast

[unkempt thicket]

-# Quickdraw

[gaunt phoenix]

Does anyone have an idea of why it's crashing ?

(crashing on discard)

[idle plaza]

Try message_card = card instead of self?

[subtle merlin]

How can i detec how many hands were played this round?

[gaunt phoenix]

It worked, thanks !

[gaunt phoenix]

So, that's just a guess, but since G.GAME.current_round.discards_used exists, there is probably a G.GAME.current_round.hands_used ?

[idle plaza]

G.GAME.current_round.hands_played

[subtle merlin]

ty!

[meager summit]

Hello there! Might be a stupid question but is there any good documentation of Balatro modding somewhere?

[errant fulcrum]

Could someone point out why this isn't stopping jokers from showing up in buffoon packs?

{
    in_pool = function(self,args)
        for i,v in ipairs(vanilla_jokers) do
        if v == self.key then
        return { false }
        end
    end
end
}
)```

[daring fern]

Because you would be putting the booster itself out of the pool but since the booster is not a vanilla joker it doesn't do anything.

[sweet pelican]

Hi, I seem to have messed something up and it keeps crashing and telling me it expects a } at the "card.ability.extra.chips =..." line, is there some formatting error I made?

[errant fulcrum]

Oh

Well dangit

[sweet pelican]

(first time working with rng elements btw idfk what im doing lol)

[daring fern]

Since SMODS quantum enhancements lags moderately with 31 enhancements, I'm assuming not.

[daring fern]

Move it out of the return.

[sweet pelican]

thank you

😭

[idle plaza]

That end just above the else is probably screwing you up? Because it causes: "If joker_main and not blueprint then .... else, sober"

[daring fern]

Also you are ending the if before else

[daring fern]

How does one stop the cards from moving when being highlighted though?

[sweet pelican]

okay so it's definitely a lot closer now, but it doesnt seem to be triggering under any context (the 1 in 1 chance is for testing), nor showing the "drunk" or "sober" messages, any insight would be very appreciated!

[red flower]

you're returning in joker_main before it can reach that statement

[sweet pelican]

(I should clearify it does trigger the xmult, just not the scaling aspect)

yeah I tried combining the two context.joker_main but it gave me some error about it expecting an "end" after the chip _mod is returned

maybe I just didnt do it right

I'll try again

[daring fern]

You can't return more than once.

[sweet pelican]

ohhhhh

that makes sense

so nest it all in the return?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[sweet pelican]

gotchaaaa

tysm :)

[modern kindle]

factory in balatro when

[formal parrot]

So

If 5! Would it be

Your mult x5x4x3x2 or mult + 5x4x3x2

[sweet pelican]

factorio in balatro when

[hallow forge]

Mult!

[formal parrot]

Multiplayer

[modern kindle]

hey math guy, quick
whats 3 plus 7

[hallow forge]

99

[modern kindle]

damn hes good

[hidden sable]

can_use = function(self, card)
return G.GAME.blind
end,

this would only work if you are in a blind right?

[daring fern]

No, it would be G.GAME.blind.in_blind

[hidden sable]

k

how do i give hands and discards

like temporary hands and disards

[daring fern]

ease_hands_played(number) ease_discard(number)

[hidden sable]

and finally how do you make a simple 50/50 system

math.random?

[daring fern]

No.

[daring fern]

if pseudorandom("seed") < 1/2 then
    -- do things
else
    -- do other things
end

[hidden sable]

what would i put in seed, just anything?

[daring fern]

Anything that is a string, yes.

[hidden sable]

can i put the games current seed in there and it would work as i would think it would?

[daring fern]

No.

Just put any string.

Except that.

[gilded blaze]

put an identifier string

something tied to the object

example: if joker's 4 mult is by chance, you use joker_mult

[hidden sable]

what if all my pseudorandoms use the same string?

would they all act the same chance wise?

like the randomness can be predicted

[daring fern]

You shouldn't do that but they will all return the same thing if any of them trigger.

Then it will change the next time any of them trigger.

[hidden sable]

i wouldnt do that but i was jsut curious

is hand size calculated the same way hands and discards are

like temp

[daring fern]

No.

Hand size changes are permanent.

[hidden sable]

ah

is there a way to force like say 3 cards to draw even if it goes over your hand size

[daring fern]

Yes.

[nova eagle]

so me and someone teamed up and started merging our mods.... and im having trouble figuring things out

his copy seems to work, but mine doesnt

wtf is Breaker.mod.path and why is it breaking things?

[thorn bough]

Somebody please tell me if I can detect playing card destructions the same way I can track consumable destructions

(relevant line at --hook)

[errant fulcrum]

{
    weight = 0
}, true
)```
Tell me why this shouldn't work

[daring fern]

I think I may have found a solution that comes without most of the lag.

[modern kindle]

what is that solution

[modern kindle]

how significant of lag were you seeing perf wise?

like from 200 to 30 frames or what we talkin

[daring fern]

The game would freeze for about 4 seconds every time something calculates.

[hidden sable]

how...

[modern kindle]

good lord
i was having an issue for awhile because i had wack code where i was going from the aforementioned like 200 to 30 lmfao

but man, freezing is rough

[daring fern]

G.FUNCS.draw_from_deck_to_hand(3) perhaps?

[hidden sable]

how can i detect when a playing card hand is displayed on screen, like either being in a blind or in a booster pack

[hidden sable]

ill try

[errant fulcrum]

I'm going to tweak out why is it so difficult to change buffoon packs

[hidden sable]

this worked, is there any way to force the new drawn cards to be tacked onto the right side of the current displayed hand

if not its fine
