daring fern
so how do i detect?
You would hook SMODS.calculate_context
thorn bough
`context.remove_playing_cards`
Okay, I did some light debugging. Using context.remove_playing_cards works mid-hand, but if a card is destroyed at the end of the blind, it doesn't detect. If it does detect, it only counts the destruction once, when it should work 5 times (IE: Immolate)
hidden sable
You would hook `SMODS.calculate_context`
never used that, how
vague crest
i thought it was working yesterday and like it DOES work its just got a scary bug where every time you use it it (?) im not really sure but the deck starts getting Wrong
ive seen it before in other mods
the context here is i have a joker where if you discard one card it discards your whole hand
pastel kernel
That's Yorick...
Oh I meant me
vague crest
it even works with trading card! which took a bit of extra trickery
vague crest
but it makes the deck weird every time you use it, when cards are added back to the deck at the end of the round it adds an extra one for each time you discarded and it leads to weird always face down cards and invisible cards
pastel kernel
I’ll change to #⚙・modding-general
hidden sable
how does one hook smods.calculate_context
vague crest
it can snowball fast if you have multiple of them but even with one its an issue
looks fine in the deck view!
but when you get into a blind it gets bad
it also interestingly brings up the deck mini-view if i mouse over one of the face down cards

As I understand it, G.GAME.current_round resets every round, so this code picks a new suit every round? If so, is there somewhere I can write to that resets after every hand?
local function reset_willatro_jokeinthebox()
G.GAME.current_round.willatro_jokeinthebox = G.GAME.current_round.willatro_jokeinthebox or { suit = 'Spades' }
local joke_suits = {}
for k, v in ipairs({ 'Spades', 'Hearts', 'Clubs', 'Diamonds' }) do
if v ~= G.GAME.current_round.willatro_jokeinthebox.suit then joke_suits[#joke_suits + 1] = v end
end
local jokeinthebox_card = pseudorandom_element(joke_suits, pseudoseed('willatro_jokeinthebox' .. G.GAME.round_resets.ante))
G.GAME.current_round.willatro_jokeinthebox.suit = jokeinthebox_card
end

"Stone Card" is not a card ID, it's just an enhancement. All Stone Cards have an underlying rank/suit, you just can't see it norrmally.
See Marble Joker in https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/src/jokers.lua for how to properly make a Stone Card.

i happen to hook that, too. this one's a bit more complex, though
basically - i have a joker that debuffs itself given a certain condition. since jokers don't calculate when debuffed, i need to handle undebuffing it outside of the joker. as it happens, the way SMODS.debuff_card() works based on source strings you make up and supply to the function, which gets stored on a table. so i just designated a source to always be undebuffed at the end of a round, check for that table and see if it contains my debuff source, then undebuffs it.
bear in mind that if you don't return the calculate return value, you break calculating. i only return it the way i do because it'll then always return nil, which i don't want in relation to another implementation

Make a table with all the keys of consumables used and go through it , you can empty it every round or shop

Secondary question that i should have asked first: how can i make it so that you can only use a specific consumable once per hand?
(Example: You have 2 "the lovers" thanks to showman, i want to make it where you can use 1 but you can't use the other until next hand)
formal parrot
You have to take ownership and make highlighted cards 0 or maybe a higher number than 5 , so you can’t use and when context.end_of_round revert it back , i think this should work
I recommend 0 but i think that can crash , idk give it a try

I was using those tarots as an example to illustrate my point, but this is for a custom consumable, not one already in the base game

is there an easy way to make jokers take up 2 joker slots or would I have to do some lovely patching?

You could remove a joker slot when added and add 1 when removed
Using add_to_deck and remive_from_deck

You could absolutely make it take up two slots, it’s just a bit of a pain to do

Hey eremel :P
Do you know how can i make info_queue for modded objects ?
(Ofc you know )
wintry solar
You mean just putting a modded item in an info queue, or custom info queues?
formal parrot
Custom info queues
I think both actually
I want to make an info_queue for credits on some jokers and also i wanna know how i can reference a joker (modded ) in an info_queue
wintry solar
info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = {set = 'Other', key = 'key'} or info_queue[#info_queue+1] = G.P_CENTERS['key']
