Won’t math.random() be better ?

[hidden sable]

bingo

[formal parrot]

Draw cards to consumable slots lol

[hidden sable]

now how can i draw a specific card to hand

like if i looped through the cards

and have the card object

how do i draw that specific card

[formal parrot]

🤷

I think ice has something similar but sadly he’s not here :)

[lyric maple]

back from dinner, can i get help with this?

[formal parrot]

You can copy it

From vanilla remade

😭

[lyric maple]

i did

[formal quest]

No??? Highest is the highest ranked card, lowest is the lowest. They need to start with these values so they'll use the first card.

[lyric maple]

and it still doesn't work 😭

[lyric maple]

not dependent on seed

[formal parrot]

You can set them to 0 😭

[formal quest]

Nothing will be less than 0

[formal parrot]

Crash message ? (Sorry not on pc can’t open the txt)

[formal parrot]

I dont think it works like that

Thats why

You can find the highest ranking card easily, just by going through cards with for and having. A variable that you compare with

[lyric maple]

starts

Oops! The game crashed:
functions/misc_functions.lua:265: bad argument #1 to 'randomseed' (number expected, got string)

[formal parrot]

Missing parameters

[lyric maple]

which ones

[formal parrot]

It looks fine

But game crash said you’re missing parameters

Is your file saved?

[formal quest]

Do you actually get what I'm doing? I need both the highest and the lowest so I can compare them. My effect uses the difference of the highest and lowest card.

[formal parrot]

Oh

😭sorry i poorly understood

That also should be easy

1 second

[lyric maple]

as in my mod file? yes

[formal parrot]

🤷

[formal parrot]

First have min and max set to 0 in your config

2 vars

[formal quest]

Still getting nil with number. Does comparing with math.huge normally cause this error?

[formal parrot]

Listen

Use config values

Variables *

Set high and low to the first card index

Card.ability.extra.highest=context.scoring_hand[1].base.nominal

[formal parrot]

Same with lowest

Don’t use math.huge 😭 thats wrong

[formal parrot]

Do both of these before the for

And use card.ability.extra.highest instead of “highest”

For your return do

Mult =card.ability.extra.highest-card.ability.extra.lowest}```

i'm trying to make a blueprint that has the ability of both the joker to the left and right, but the game crashes on the `x.extra = SMODS.blueprint_effect(card, other_joker, context)` line with "attempt to index local 'x' (a nil value)
why is x nil here?

[molten musk]

oh

[formal parrot]

Lmao

[molten musk]

haha

[formal parrot]

Ahahaha

[molten musk]

didnt expect someone here to play genshin tbh

dont know what did i do wrong but the pack is not showing the non-mod cards

[formal parrot]

Does it show ingame ?

[molten musk]

the mod spectral cards show correctly, butthe original spectrals dont instead i see jumbo joker

[formal parrot]

Never done packs before 😭

Did you follow references ?

[native zinc]

we have a Balatro: Star Rail mod

[native zinc]

granted it's in hiatus

[formal parrot]

The jumboman

Since one is bro a consumable 😭

[formal quest]

Ok, how do I reset them while I'm doing that? It seems to not like me putting this code after the localize line

[formal parrot]

It resets automatically

[molten musk]

star rail mod?? texture or playing mod?

[native zinc]

playing mod

[molten musk]

in all examples i have there is no pack example...

[formal parrot]

Don’t set it to 0

[native zinc]

though all mods are probably presumed 'playing mod"

[molten musk]

tbh i want a genshin texture pack for jokers

[formal quest]

I removed the line since you say it resets automatically

[formal parrot]

:]

[molten musk]

i even have a somewhat ready list of each joker what to be

[snow vale]

what's the error?

[native zinc]

classic talisman

[formal parrot]

Its

Possible

[molten musk]

i know

[formal parrot]

Obelisk

[molten musk]

but i dont do art

[formal parrot]

Zhongli’s pillar

😭😭

[formal parrot]

Learn

[molten musk]

exactly

[formal parrot]

I’m shit at art

[molten musk]

tried

[formal parrot]

Gotten way better

Trial and error

[formal parrot]

You’re not doing it the right way :3

[molten musk]

dont have time to do art with other stuff

[formal parrot]

Gotta grind for top 1% skirl

Skirk*

[molten musk]

got her yesterday

and her weapon

[snow vale]

wdym?

[formal quest]

Functionally it works now

[molten musk]

again

[formal quest]

The text is broken so it still says +0 mult, but it does give mult

[formal parrot]

Congrats:3

[formal parrot]

Don’t return values

[molten musk]

it was double too, lost then got it in the same 10 pull

[formal parrot]

Just use text like raised fist

[formal parrot]

The gacha gods 😭

[formal quest]

Don't return?

[formal parrot]

In loc_vars

Return and dont use them in text

Don’t do #1#

😭😭you can do no loc_vars

Its optional

[molten musk]

after i lost at first spent a few minutes praying as hard as i can to get a double for the first time ever
so....

[formal quest]

What about the text on the joker?

[sour garden]

messed around with it a bit, the code functions if i comment out "x.extra = y", even if it only copies 1 joker
not sure why it says that x is a nil value when i define it, unless .extra isn't what i'm supposed to be doing?

[solid grotto]

I feel like I'm doing localization wrong, shouldn't the "message" and "saved" both refer to my localization file? Why is it not using these?

[formal parrot]

This joker gives mult equal to the highest scoring card-lowest scoring card

[molten musk]

dont know what did i do wrong but the pack is not showing the non-mod cards

gonna repeat this until someone gives me a sol

[snow vale]

bump

[formal parrot]

Can’t really do loc_text here with vars without avoiding lag since you’d have to do the calc whenever a card is highlighted

Which isn’t as laggy but , the max you can get is 9 mult to doing the math in your head would be more efficient

[molten musk]

to know better where issue is, seperate lines

after the first then new line

after the second one a new line

and each end in a seperate line

[tall wharf]

:3

[snow vale]

the main problem is that i didnt get that error

it was someone

[molten musk]

oh

[formal quest]

I took out loc_vars and it's still saying +0 mult

[molten musk]

doing everything in one line is bad practice so...

[formal quest]

This is the localize line
message = localize { type = 'variable', key = 'a_mult', vars = { (card.ability.extra.highest - card.ability.extra.highest) * 2 } },

[snow vale]

i usually do that on hooks

idk why

[molten musk]

tell him to fix that first

[lyric maple]

okay yeah i found the problem, i just didn't update steamodded

[snow vale]

i mean, he's playing my mod

[formal quest]

Oh it must be that I'm subtracting highest from itself

[molten musk]

@daring fern u there?

[vague crest]

trying to create a joker which retriggers a certain rank twice and changes each round but the retriggers arent working for some reason?

im wondering if it's having trouble reading the rank variable for some reason

[formal parrot]

Which one are you using ?

The id method ?

[vague crest]

i think so?

[formal quest]

Yeah, made it subtract lowest from highest and it works perfectly

@formal parrot Thanks!

[vague crest]

its pretty much identical to what mail in rebate uses since that deals with ranks too

[formal parrot]

Oh

Ace is

Id is a number

[vague crest]

hm ok

[formal parrot]

So your variable shouldn’t be a string

It should be 14

[vague crest]

when i set it to that it came up as ERROR in the description, how would i localize it?

[lyric maple]

great now this isn't working

function SMODS.current_mod.reset_game_globals(run_start)
    reset_kls_magenta_rank()
end

it's only triggering at run start

according to vremade it should be for every round (despite the name)

[formal parrot]

Np :> please remember card references to joker and avoid context.individual if you don’t understand it

[formal parrot]

I think you can do card rank by id or something

Or just type ace

[formal quest]

The joker is now working perfectly. Text fix and art are up next.

[formal parrot]

Manually

If its not changing

[solid grotto]

I've never had this issue and I hadn't edited this joker at all?

What's the problem?

Can it just not find the picture

[formal parrot]

Is it

Ong

Png*

[solid grotto]

Yes

[molten musk]

do any of u know how to reach someone on github

[native zinc]

is it named correctly

[solid grotto]

It's been working since I've added it, and I never edited the image

[formal parrot]

You can do mult calculations with highlighted card context i feel like

I recommend just not doing it

[formal parrot]

Check 1x and 2x

It should be in both

[solid grotto]

For 2x what should I be naming it

[formal parrot]

Same

Name

[native zinc]

these atlas dimensions are weird as hell

[formal parrot]

Double resolution

[solid grotto]

Alright

[formal parrot]

I was gonna point it but 🤷

[solid grotto]

I followed the first youtube video I found man idk

What's wrong with the dimensions

[vague crest]

got it working! tysm

[solid grotto]

The joker images have been showing up as intended

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[native zinc]

it really should be 71 95 as that's what vanilla uses

[solid grotto]

Is there a 1px border of transparent pixels around the joker

I copied the dimensions straight from the sprite sheet

[molten musk]

dont know what did i do wrong but the pack is not showing the non-mod cards

[feral tree]

What am i doing wrong?? trying to have a joker that's ceremonial dagger but it adds 2 to Xmult everytime it destroys a joker, the Joker dissolves, the message shows the correct number but it doesnt actually apply the Xmult!

[solid grotto]

Idk why it wouldn't be working

Maybe take the addition out of the function?

For some reason?

[lyric maple]

the function is returning card.ability.extra.Xmult, but your loc vars etc is using card.ability.extra.xmult

[molten musk]

chat died

[solid grotto]

My mod is still failing to find the picture for my joker

Even though I have everything right

Seemingly

[static dagger]

Hey all, I'm trying to make rigged probabilities but it's crashing every time I enter the shop. Anyone have any ideas on how I can help fix this?

local old_pseudorandom = pseudorandom
function pseudorandom(seed, min, max)
    if #find_joker('j_mymod_Hakari') > 0 then
        return 0
    end
    return old_pseudorandom(seed, min, max)
end

[static dagger]

remove the beginning of the key

so key = "jammy_seven"

[solid grotto]

What does that do

[static dagger]

The j_ is added automatically by SMOD iirc

[solid grotto]

I really do not understand why it's doing this

Should my atlas things be in my localization instead

[static dagger]

I don't think so

Can I see your joker definition?

[solid grotto]

Like

The text for it in game

Wdym

[static dagger]

the part where you write SMODS.Joker{}

[solid grotto]

It's been working since I implimented it, just now the hiccup is happening

[static dagger]

So was it able to find the atlas before?

[solid grotto]

Yes

[static dagger]

Do you have a git repo that you can compare what you changed with?

[solid grotto]

Don't think so

[vague crest]

bumping this because im hoping to figure it out before bed 🙏 trying to keep the streak of 5 jokers a day going

[solid grotto]

I was toying with localization trying to figure out how it works and then this issue started

Not too familiar with gamedev so a lot of this is pretty new to me

[static dagger]

Sorry, I don't know :(

[solid grotto]

Deleted the little bit of localization I had and it still bricks

Weird

I only had like two things in there so it's not a big deal

For science

I guess I'll sleep on it

For anyone seeing this later here's my issue. Would love any thoughts as to why this is happening

[lyric maple]

i'm trying to make a joker that gives x4 mult if the played hand matches the last played hand, but the last played hand updates when you play the hand

e.g. i intend for pair after HC to give x1 mult, since pair and HC don't match, but the last played hand is updated before scoring, so it matches pair with itself to give x4

[dire marlin]

can someone help me to make calculation for this one?

oh yeah i forgot, i am new for modding so im still learning the basic and confused to make multieffect joker abilities

[lyric maple]

are you using talisman with xchips

[dire marlin]

yeah but i dont know how to code that thing

[lyric maple]

ok so

can you show me your current code

like. for your entire joker

[dire marlin]

wait

[formal parrot]

Xchips don’t require talisman

Its built it with smods

[lyric maple]

oh ok

that makes my life 0.7% easier

[formal parrot]

I hate talisman

Witchcraft ongod 😭

[lyric maple]

right so you need a calculate function

so in your context it should be

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
          return {
              Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult,
              Xchips = card.ability.extra.Xchips,
              dollars = card.ability.extra.dollar
          }
      end
  end

or something like that

SMODS.Joker {
    key = "mint",
    loc_txt = {
        name = "Mint",
        text = {
            "{X:mult,C:white}X#1#{} Mult if",
            "{C:attention}played hand{} is the same as {C:attention}last played hand{}",
            "{C:inactive}(Currently {C:attention}#2#{}){}"
        }
    },
    config = { extra = { xmult = 4, last_played = 'High Card' } },
    rarity = 3,
    atlas = "Jokers",
    blueprint_compat = true,
    pos = { x = 4, y = 2 },
    cost = 7,
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xmult, card.ability.extra.last_played } }
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main and next(context.poker_hands[card.ability.extra.last_played]) then
            return {
                xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
            }
        end
        card.ability.extra.last_played = G.GAME.last_hand_played
    end
}

the display is working properly, but it still gives x4 mult regardless

[dire marlin]

oh yeah im trying this one and it worked but the Xchips didnt, any help?

[lyric maple]

i honestly don't know

i don't use xchips

[dire marlin]

ahh okay tysm man

[azure valley]

@dire marlin you can find documentation on how to return xchips in the steammodded wiki

Iirc

Does anyone have any documentation on the different phases of scoring a regular hand? I'm trying to implement a rather intrusive change to scoring for a joker, and I need to touch a lot of little things, so knowing how scoring works in detail from start to finish would be very useful.

[dire marlin]

can u send me the link, i cant find it anywhere

[formal parrot]

Hello

[formal parrot]

What are you looking for ?

Return{
xchips=your value}

If for xchips

[azure valley]

This is the page I was thinking about, but it doesn't mention xchips

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Calculate-Functions

[formal parrot]

Its xchips =😭😭

[dire marlin]

        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
          return {
              Xchips = 3,
              Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult,
              dollars = card.ability.extra.dollar
          }
      end
  end```

like that?

[formal parrot]

Yes

x

Is lowercase

In both xchips and xmult

[dire marlin]

oh okay lemme try

[dire marlin]

it worked

thank u so much

[formal parrot]

Np ;)

[runic pecan]

How do I say in description that Lucky cards' scoring effect (1 in 5 for +20 mult and 1 in 15 for $20) will also trigger when held in hand, with no ambiguity?

I'd imagine it'd start with "Lucky cards held in hand ..."

[formal parrot]

Lucky cards will trigger if scored or held in hand

[formal parrot]

Did you do this by taking ownership ?

[runic pecan]

I'm going to.
It's still in planning step.

I'm mostly afraid if this is going to mess up other mods' ownership on lucky enhancement.

[formal parrot]

(Will definitely happen)

[runic pecan]

Wait.
I forgot I can just... have the joker give the mult and money instead.

[formal parrot]

Thats

Better

And will 100% work

You can change message display to trick them i to thinking it was the card triggering

One problem

(Won’t work with mime or red seals )

[loud spoke]

hi, does anyone know why my repetition doesn't work? I'm pretty new to modding and I'm not sure where I'm going wrong since I'm using the sock and musket as reference in the vanilla remade mod. I know that the .seal == "gold" thing works sice i've used it for other code so I'm not sure what I'm missing

[daring fern]

Yes.

[runic pecan]

You typo'ed context.repitition.

[formal parrot]

That doesn’t help😭

[loud spoke]

....sounds about right. Okay thank you lol

[formal parrot]

Typo :>

[runic pecan]

Well, you just need to keep in mind that repetition comes from the word repeat.

[tired kestrel]

Trying to figure out how I can make a function that converts from three of a kind to four of a kind.

[formal parrot]

How exactly

[tired kestrel]

kinda like four fingers except if you have the joker it would try to convert your three of a kind into a four of a kind.

[daring fern]

So it would duplicate one of the cards?

[tired kestrel]

Well not really but actually the joker would count as part of the kind of card you chose for a 3 of a kind.

[molten musk]

dont know what did i do wrong but the pack is not showing the non-mod cards

hopfully someone will answer this time

[tired kestrel]

like if you have three of a kind the joker itself would counted as a playing card and rank you choose for the thre of a kind.

[molten musk]

@daring fern can u help?

[formal parrot]

You can change the 3 of a kind behavior to count as 4 of a kind when add to deck

but

Idk how

LOL

[formal parrot]

You sure your keys are correct

[molten musk]

yes

checked

[formal parrot]

I think the first letter of each is uppercase

[molten musk]

hmm

will try that

[formal parrot]

;)

Whats medium key for ?

[molten musk]

nope

didnt work

[molten musk]

the medium spectral card

the purple seal one

[formal parrot]

Oh

[formal parrot]

Are you sure your keys are correct ? Did you checked the game’s code

[molten musk]

yeah, i copy pasted from game code

[daring fern]

All the keys should be lowercase.

[molten musk]

did that too

[molten musk]

now what...

[formal parrot]

Take the L

/j

[molten musk]

??

[formal parrot]

Accept defeat

[molten musk]

...

[formal parrot]

(Don’t)

Go do something else

And come back for it

[molten musk]

i should

[tired kestrel]

Here's what I'd thought I can get it to work.

but overall I was thinking like maybe when you are abotu to play the three of a kind

it switches to four of a kind.

and of course makes the joker to be counted as the said playing card

[stiff quiver]

I made this to change the sprite of a seal if you have joker. would it work? lua if G.GAME and G.jokers and #G.jokers.cards > 0 then for key,playing_card in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do if playing_card.config.center.key == "j_joker" then card.config.center.pos = { x = 1 , y = 0 } break else card.config.center.pos = { x = 0 , y = 0 } end end end
thats placed inside the calculate part of the seal

i would test it myself but my game isnt doing the seal's code for some reason

[lyric maple]

        local jleft, jright
        if card.area and card.area == G.jokers then
            for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
                if G.jokers.cards[i] == card then
                    jleft = G.jokers.cards[i - 1]
                    jright = G.jokers.cards[i + 1]
                end
            end
        end
        local left_cost = (jleft and jleft.sell_cost) or 0
        local right_cost = (jright and jright.sell_cost) or 0
        card.ability.extra.dollars = math.ceil((left_cost + right_cost) / 2)

this code is intended for a joker to give $ equal to the avg sell value of the jokers left and right of it. if i put four of this joker in my slots (sell value $3), it returns 0, 3, 3, 0, but it should return 2, 3, 3, 2

[simple helm]

how do i change the png title to my own?

[pastel torrent]

method to detect sealed cards?

nvm

found it

would this be correct?

[hard mica]

does anyone know how i can fix this? i added a event thingy but now it doesnt show at all after the round ends

[tired kestrel]

turns out... it's actually hard coded with the actual game

is there a way to recreate this?

[molten musk]

i wanna make a joker that adds seals on played cards
how do i go about that

[formal parrot]

I think there’s a seal_poll

Or Pool

Forgot

Nope

Its poll_seal

[molten musk]

i see

[formal parrot]

SMODS.poll_seal({ guaranteed = true, type_key = '' })

Key can be anything

This adds a random seal

I think you can set seal for cards right?

SMODS.poll_seal({ guaranteed = true, type_key = '' })

Idk if this would work

[molten musk]

hmm will try it

[formal parrot]

No

@molten musk

Found it

[molten musk]

oh

[formal parrot]

New_card:set_seal(card.ability.extra.seal, nil, true)

[molten musk]

new card??

[formal parrot]

variable

You’d use v:

[molten musk]

i see

[formal parrot]

Change the card.ability.extra.seal

[formal parrot]

To this

For random seal

Should theoretically work

Or have a seal key in config if you want a specific one

[I recommend doing all of this in an event ]

[molten musk]

ok

[snow vale]

why's this partner not working?

[formal parrot]

X

lowercase

:P

[snow vale]

wait really

no but i mean

it doesnt scale

[formal parrot]

Add print

[snow vale]

ok

[formal parrot]

Are you sure thats how partner work (i mean idk never done one )

[snow vale]

idk tbh

ill go check

[snow vale]

doesnt print anything

[formal parrot]

Check

The github

They might have a tutorial or something

[feral tree]

what does the secondary colour of a consumable type change?

[formal parrot]

@snow vale

https://github.com/Icecanno/Partner-API/blob/e9d92430f7acb075adf409c11c0c1075d76cf42a/partner.lua#L827

[snow vale]

dw i fixed it

[formal parrot]

No idea

[tired kestrel]

can you try to trick the game to think it's a four of a kind? or not?

[dire marlin]

how to make the calculate context for this?

[formal parrot]

You definitely can

[tired kestrel]

how is that?

[formal parrot]

Easy

Use while

[formal parrot]

Check cryptid coding

[tired kestrel]

okay

need to look for that

[formal parrot]

@dire marlin
Use https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/fbfeb4d2e14111c9c47706f71cc25c7b50e021c9/src/jokers.lua#L2614 for lucky card trigger context and

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/fbfeb4d2e14111c9c47706f71cc25c7b50e021c9/src/jokers.lua#L3259 for triggers
Use
WHILE for repetition

    -- your return 
end```

[tired kestrel]

now which joker does that?

[formal parrot]

Do you have cryptid installed ?

Just look around there’s 150+ jokers and more stuff , could be a pain to find it tbh

[tired kestrel]

I'm actually looking for the code itself in lua

no I have not installed onto balatro mod

[formal parrot]

Tell me if you figured it out

[tired kestrel]

am I playing myself for some mind games?

just kidding. Just I don't even know where I can find it but I'm looking

[stiff quiver]

the joker is "lucky joker" if you are still looking for it

[formal parrot]

No he

Lmao

Nevermind lmao

[hard mica]

^

[stiff quiver]

didnt he want to make it stop retriggering when the card triggered?

[formal parrot]

Thats not the guy asking 😭

[stiff quiver]

oh

[formal parrot]

I gave him the solution don’t worry :)

[stiff quiver]

lmao

[tired kestrel]

I actually meant that changed the poker hand

but now I found out about the ://Exploit

[formal parrot]

Start materializing at context.end_of_round

Are you sure main eval is correct?

[dire marlin]

im still can't figure it out

[formal parrot]

Chat remind me to make a tutorial on the 4th

[formal parrot]

I can help

Whats your current code ?

[dire marlin]

the entire for this joker?

[formal parrot]

Yes

:P

[dire marlin]

SMODS.Atlas{
    key = "mining",
    path = 'mining.png',
    px = 71,
    py = 95
}
SMODS.Joker{
    key = 'mining',
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Gambilng Addict',
        text = {
            '{C:attention}Retrigger{} lucky card until',
            'lucky card ability is triggered',
            '{C:inactive}``99% gambler quit before big win``{}'
        }
    },
    atlas = 'mining',
    pos = {x = 0, y = 0},
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 10,
    config = { extra = { repetitions = 1 } },
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and context.other_card.lucky_trigger and not context.blueprint then
        end
}```

[formal parrot]

Okay so

You don’t need a config

Can i edit this ?

[dire marlin]

sure

[formal parrot]

To show you

Okay great

[hard mica]

yeah i used it before

[tired kestrel]

Can't find where cry_exploit_override is located

[formal parrot]

    key = 'mining',
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Gambilng Addict',
        text = {
            '{C:attention}Retrigger{} lucky card until',
            'lucky card ability is triggered',
            '{C:inactive}``99% gambler quit before big win``{}'
        }
    },
    atlas = 'mining',
    pos = {x = 0, y = 0},
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 10,
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.repetition and context.cardarea==G.play then
While not context.other_card.lucky_trigger do
Return{repetition=1}
End
End
End
}```

[dire marlin]

ahh

[formal parrot]

This theoretically should work

[dire marlin]

lemme try

[formal parrot]

Add

And not context.blueprint

In if

[tired kestrel]

how the heck am I going to do this?

[molten musk]

@formal parrot the joker worked

[formal parrot]

Good job

Here’s a cookie 🍪

[molten musk]

haha

thanks teacher

[tired kestrel]

I did found the code where it messes the code but I have no idea how I can get it to work without having to crash

[formal parrot]

blushes

[molten musk]

now to the next one

i want to trigger seal effects one more time
not the card, just seal effects

whether in hand, played or discarded

[dire marlin]

    key = 'mining',
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Gambilng Addict',
        text = {
            '{C:attention}Retrigger{} lucky card until',
            'lucky card ability is triggered',
            '{C:inactive}``99% gambler quit before big win``{}'
        }
    },
    atlas = 'mining',
    pos = {x = 0, y = 0},
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 10,
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.play and not context.blueprint then
            while not context.other_card.lucky_trigger do
                return {
                    repetion = 1
                }
            end
        end
    end```

still not working

[formal parrot]

It should tho😭

Does it crash?

[dire marlin]

no but the joker didnt do the repetition

wait

[formal parrot]

Omfg

I’m

Stupid asf

[molten musk]

u typed repetition wrong

[formal parrot]

Its repetitions

I KNOW😭😭😭

[dire marlin]

yea i just figured it out 😭

sorry mann

[formal parrot]

Lmfao😭😭

Its alright

Typo

[tired kestrel]

heaven did I do this right?

[tired kestrel]

@formal parrot

I don't know if what I'm doing is right

I did use the code from the ://Exploit but I don't know if it would work

[dire marlin]

i just fixed the typo but sadly still didnt work as we expected

[formal parrot]

I’m not sure if this is the correct way to do it

[formal parrot]

Can you screenshot the code

[formal parrot]

You might need to ask somethingcom or ice

I’m not sure how to do hand swa

Swap

[tired kestrel]

yeah, cause I know that now Exploit is a code card for Cryptid yet I have not see any one joker that can like, change hand type

[tired kestrel]

alright

I think ice is online right?

[formal parrot]

Exploit is a consumable no ?

[formal parrot]

Should be

[tired kestrel]

alright might as well.

@hushed field do you happen to know how to make a joker to replace the hand type?

like

from Three of a Kind to FOur of a kind.

[formal parrot]

Its “repetitions”

In return

[hushed field]

I'd hook the hand evaluation function

I haven't tried to do anything like that myself, though

[formal parrot]

I though he can edit the 4 of a kind to act like 3 of a kind

[hushed field]

let me read up on the context, haha

[formal parrot]

He wants to make a joker that lets you play 4 of a kind with 3 of a kind

(I think 4 fingers joker in vanilla remade has something like this )

[hushed field]

Ah, in that case, I'd find whatever function does the evaluation, and lovely patch a bool check in that that joker would set on add_to_deck

[tired kestrel]

cause this is the idea where I got it from:

[tired kestrel]

now how would that be?

[formal parrot]

Wait lemme check

[hushed field]

let me check how the code handles that, and I can give you a more detailed idea of how I'd handle it, at least, haha

[molten musk]

how do i retrigger a seal

[azure valley]

The code that handles it is called from highlight_card in I think cardarea.lua, I was there earlier tonight

[formal parrot]

Repetitions on playing card retrigger seals

Not red seal tho

[hushed field]

yeah, okay, there's a function called evaluate_poker_hand, which you'd want to patch into. The function that checks for xoak is called get_X_same. In this case, you could even just hook get_X_same and make it so that when the test is set to 4, it starts at 1 higher

[molten musk]

thats not what i want, i want to retrigger seals every where, played,in hand or discarded
and red seals included

[formal parrot]

You’ll have to take ownership of them i think and edit the context

[tired kestrel]

So... how do I trick it? I mean you can do something with the cards right? or how you can make the joker to count as a playing card.

of course I mysefl have tried to look into the source code again and apperently it was very hard coded

[molten musk]

gonna think about it tomorrow,im getting tired and want to rest

[tired kestrel]

wanted to like make a function like get_four_of_a_kind so that it would work.

[molten musk]

see u all later

[hushed field]

have you used lovely patches before, tarkan?

[tired kestrel]

not really.

how does that work?

[hushed field]

It allows you to insert code into the source code

[formal parrot]

Bye bye <3

[formal parrot]

Check the lovely GitHub

[tired kestrel]

didn't I already have that?

[dire marlin]

it is

[hushed field]

yeah, but it has an explanation of how the patches work on the page

[formal parrot]

You’re missing an s

[dire marlin]

ohhhh

[formal parrot]

You might want to be get a little familiar with it

[formal parrot]

Only in return

Context.repetition isn’t plural

[dire marlin]

bruh i need to remember that plural thing

lemme try again

[formal parrot]

Dw we all make typo mistakes

(Specifically me)

[dire marlin]

😭

[tired kestrel]

So what I need to do is copy the source code from there and make a folder of patches where now you can just change the thing and then eventually get it to work with using [patches].

am I understanding this correctly?

[formal parrot]

Lovely patches are so interesting, I might wanna learn it when i have time i wanna add custom stuff

[tired kestrel]

Actually I wanna learn that too now.

[formal parrot]

Si

You can find people using it in their mods

.toml

[tired kestrel]

okay. so basically copy core.lua into a folder and then modify the code.

oh.

[hushed field]

not entirely. You don't copy the source code. You find basically a unique line in the code, and decide whether your new code is placed before it, after it, or replaces it. It allows you to do a whole bunch of more complicated mechanics

[tired kestrel]

tbh I need a tutorial about on how it works cause.

[formal parrot]

Reading the wiki explains the wiki

:P

[dire marlin]

@formal parrot

[hidden sable]

just realized this context wotn work because its after

[tired kestrel]

where the heck is the wiki?

also I've statrted and yet I don't know exactly what I2m doing with this.

my brain is trying to process this.

[unborn bay]

what are you trying to do

[hidden sable]

connect a function up to when the game wants to draw cards to hand, i want to have my event happen before the actual cards get drawn to hand

[tired kestrel]

@hushed field I think I might be starting and eventhough I'm new to this but I think thisi s what you meant by right?

[unborn bay]

you might want to create your own context for that then

[hidden sable]

gulp, is that hard?

[unborn bay]

in this case probably not

if you don't need it at a very specific place in the functiob

just hook to it

[formal parrot]

I’m afraid the while didn’t work

Add some prints

[dire marlin]

i think so

[formal parrot]

To find the issue

[hidden sable]

i just need to run a function before cards get drawn, when cards should get drawn

[formal parrot]

Print (“1”)before the while and print (“2”) inside

[unborn bay]

local ref = functionhere
function functionhere()
    SMODS.calculate_context({context_name_here = true})
    ref()
end

i forgot the name of the function regarding drawing cards to hand

but yeah adding custom contexts is as simple as this

[dire marlin]

        if context.individual and context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.play and not context.blueprint then
            Print (“1”) while not context.other_card.lucky_trigger do print (“2”)
                return {
                    repetitions = 1
                }
            end
        end
    end``` like this?

[formal parrot]

Good luck😭

[tired kestrel]

wait

[formal parrot]

Yeah , i think you need a comma at the end

[tired kestrel]

oh my god I just fricking found it.

[formal parrot]

But try

It should print in the console

[dire marlin]

okay

[formal parrot]

HOLY

[dire marlin]

should i screenshot the crash log?

[tired kestrel]

I looked in the github

further

and came across this

I don't know if this is what I'm looking for

but now I just need to figure out how do I even replace

[hidden sable]

so replace functionhere with whatever function regards to drawing cards

[formal parrot]

Preferably

[hidden sable]

is there any way to have my function run before drawing cards, and when its completed resume the og game hand draw

[formal parrot]

Shoutout to N

[red flower]

there's a new one that's before cards get drawn, what do you need it for?

[tired kestrel]

Ooooh.

[red flower]

hii

[formal parrot]

😭i feel like N and mathisfun are the fathers of modding

N byw

[hidden sable]

drawing a card before others

[formal parrot]

Btw*

[tired kestrel]

So how does this work?

wait.

[red flower]

idk im not following the convo

[formal parrot]

.

[hidden sable]

searching the deck for cards that have enhancements and drawing those first

[formal parrot]

Is this code correct ?

[red flower]

try context.drawing_cards

[formal parrot]

Ik its [repetitions] in return

Typo

[hidden sable]

how can i "pause" the actual drawing until my function finishes?

[red flower]

individual and repetition don't happen at the same time

[formal parrot]

Mmmm

[tired kestrel]

well you see I'm trying to make a joker that actually replaces three of a kind to four of a kind if help with the joker cause I want the joker to act like a playing card

[formal parrot]

So i need to split it ?

[red flower]

that function is before the cards are drawn so you dont need to do that

[formal parrot]

To 2 ifs ?

[red flower]

unless you mess up the events

[hidden sable]

ok, 2 things, how can i draw a specific card to hand, and how can i refer to all cards in deck (so i can for loop check)

[red flower]

you would only need repetition but reading the effect I don't think it's possible to do without hooking the internal calculation functions

[formal parrot]

Rip

Can i use context.played_hand

[red flower]

second is G.deck.cards
first idk there are mods with enhancements that do that

[formal parrot]

And for

Instead ?

[mild fractal]

trying to make it so that when mult is added to my joker it pops up with the +mult effect (idk how to explain it properly but like when you refresh the shop with trading card) and i cant figure out how, can anyone help?

like it adds the mult i just want the visual indicator iykwim

[red flower]

wdym

[formal parrot]

Basically i wanna do repetitions on lucky cards until they trigger

[hidden sable]

can i search the games source code and see if theres a function similar to whats going on with "top card"

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/fbfeb4d2e14111c9c47706f71cc25c7b50e021c9/src/jokers.lua#L448

[tired kestrel]

N, if you have a moment, how does the replacing for patches work for whole codes and everything?

[red flower]

it's probably one of the draw_cards functions

[hidden sable]

maybe even "top card" will serve my purpose?

[tired kestrel]

like I want to replace the entirey of evaluate_poker_hand with new stuff

[red flower]

yeah i saw people trying to do that before, I think smoethingcom had an idea

[formal parrot]

@daring fern

[hidden sable]

promising?

[formal parrot]

Offline :<

[red flower]

oh wow i just butchered the name

[tired kestrel]

like having to replace the three of a kind with a four of a kind with a spesific joker

[formal parrot]

My idea is using a while

[red flower]

you can't use a while because you can only return once

[formal parrot]

While not [context for lucky card triggers]

[formal parrot]

Really ?

[hidden sable]

why not a hook, dumb idea but yknow, maybe

[formal parrot]

What a shame

[formal parrot]

How exactly

[red flower]

yeah you need to hook SMODS.calculate_repetitions or something like that but no idea

[hidden sable]

when a lucky card gets scored, check if it got set off, if it didnt, do a repetition

[formal parrot]

Yeah but

How many times

[red flower]

If you want to replace the whole function then you wouldn't use a patch, but are you sure that's what you need to do?

[formal parrot]

Wait

[hidden sable]

@red flower draw_card(G.deck,G.hand, i*100/card_count,nil, nil , nil, 0.07) does this look promising?

[red flower]

i guess, don't know without testing it

[tired kestrel]

Well that's what Ice brought up about cause I want to like modify the evaluate_poker_hand with a mod

[hidden sable]

1 time, because itll do the check again when getting scored

[mild fractal]

turned out id had it right the whole time i just wasnt testing it properly... sigh

[tired kestrel]

to just have a function that can have a joker a spesific joker to replace a three of akind poker hand to a four of a kind.

[dire marlin]

so what should i do

[red flower]

Well, modifying the whole thing is not the same as modifying part of it

what exactly do you want to know

[near bay]

how do i make a joker act like gros michel but gives 120 chips instead of 15 mult?

[tired kestrel]

I mean then how ca nyou make the joker to like, trick the game that three of a kind as a four of a kind?

or something like that?

[red flower]

i mean, it is something to do with evaluate_poker_hand

idk if you need a patch

[formal parrot]

    key = 'mining',
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Gambilng Addict',
        text = {
            '{C:attention}Retrigger{} lucky card until',
            'lucky card ability is triggered',
            '{C:inactive}``99% gambler quit before big win``{}'
        }
    },
    atlas = 'mining',
    pos = {x = 0, y = 0},
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 10,
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        if context.played_hand and context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.play and not context.blueprint then
            For _,v in inpairs(context.played_hand) do
If not v.lucky_trigger do
                return {
                    repetion = 1
                }
            end
        end
    end```

Is this correct?

[hidden sable]

I THINK I AHVE IT

[tired kestrel]

Yeah, cause I have 0 experience on how patches work.

[hidden sable]

from = G.deck
to = G.hand
percent = ??
dir = ???
sort = ???
card = for check card

[red flower]

it's context.full_hand but this will retrigger all cards once as long as you played any card that didn't trigger the lucky effect (even if it is not lucky)

[hidden sable]

3 arguments i gotta figure out what they do

[formal parrot]

I give up

(>_<)

[red flower]

yeah it's not a simple effect

[tired kestrel]

honestly I kinda agree.

I mean Cryptid had pull something about replacing a hand type and yet I figure out how that actually works or functional

[red flower]

honestly there could be a context for that

[near bay]

how do i make a joker act like gros michel but gives 120 chips instead of 15 mult?

[red flower]

i will see if i can do it once i get back home later today

[red flower]

copy gros michel but return 120 chips instead of 15 mult

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/fbfeb4d2e14111c9c47706f71cc25c7b50e021c9/src/jokers.lua#L896

[hidden sable]

how do i check if a card has an enhancement again

[red flower]

any or a specific one

[hidden sable]

spec

[dire marlin]

so no answer for today? 🙁

[manic rune]

SMODS.has_enhancement(card, "enhancement_key") for specific
next(SMODS.get_enhancements(card)) for checking if the card has any enhancement i think 🤔

[tired kestrel]

hopefully if hey can elaborate on how or where how it works.

[red flower]

SMODS.has_enhancement(card, "m_modprefix_key")

[hidden sable]

thank yoy

[tired kestrel]

like I did try to use the code but somehow it's a code card

[red flower]

??

[tired kestrel]

and has it's UI and everything

and also you have to choose your own code

[hidden sable]

lets pray this works

[dire marlin]

that lucky card thing

[tired kestrel]

or the poker hand

[crisp coral]

pitch, face up/down (i think), whether should automatically sort after drawn

[red flower]

oh, i already said you can't do it in calculate you need to hook one of the smods functions

[hidden sable]

i saw in the code they just call nil for everything so i just called nil for everything as well

[dire marlin]

ahh i see

[crisp coral]

definitely crashes

[tired kestrel]

Now what about the evaluate pokerhand to trick the game into a differnt hand type.

[near bay]

Thank you!

[red flower]

evaluate_poker_hand returns the hand name, it might be as easy as replacing one for the other but idk

[hidden sable]

my dumbass forgor

[hidden sable]

didnt work 😭

fuck did i do? 😭

[dire marlin]

any explanation how to do that?

[red flower]

no idea sorry

unless you mean how to hook in general

[dire marlin]

ah okay

thank you anyway

[hidden sable]

😭

i tried a new approach

wait

i might be stupid hold on

give me a minute

[red flower]

you would also need to change card

[lament agate]

G.UIT.I is a thing right?

why does it crash saying its not a thing

[red flower]

i dont think it is

[lament agate]

but

[red flower]

what would it be

[lament agate]

????

[red flower]

oh maybe it is

[lament agate]

raising my fist as i shout "god damn you smods"

[hidden sable]

damit

[red flower]

yeah i dont see it in the code

[hidden sable]

what is bro checking for 😭

[lament agate]

man

why is it in the wiki then

[red flower]

are you looking at the dump?

[manic rune]

🤔

text input node??

[hidden sable]

looking at source yeah

[lament agate]

its in the wiki

[red flower]

in the lovely/dump?

[manic rune]

mm nop

use create_text_input if you want to make a text input box

[hidden sable]

im looking at the log it gave me, and looking in the source code at where the log tells me i did an oopsies

[manic rune]

idk wtf is G.UIT.I, first time seeing that

[lament agate]

so we lyin now

😭

[red flower]

with source you mean you extracted the .exe?

[hidden sable]

the smods wiki truly is a sacred place

[hidden sable]

yes

[manic rune]

happy april fools!

[red flower]

look at the lovely/sump in your mods folder

[manic rune]

sump

;3

[hidden sable]

sump

[red flower]

now im not correcting it

[manic rune]

lmao

[hidden sable]

where would i check

[manic rune]

not in there

[red flower]

?

[manic rune]

wait

is that in dump

[red flower]

the same place the crash log tells you

[hidden sable]

oh there we go

[manic rune]

i cant tell if thats the source code or dump

😭

[red flower]

if it has the .txt its the dump

[manic rune]

oh

i will see myself out

:3

[hidden sable]

something is whining about other_ard

[red flower]

whats the function

[hidden sable]

eval_card

[red flower]

weird

[hidden sable]

am i not defining card correctly?

[manic rune]

prob draw_card, everything there looks fine

[hidden sable]

i got draw_card from the source

[manic rune]

:3 never used draw_card before, good luckkk

[red flower]

oh i think youre missing an argument

youre passing the card as the sort

[hidden sable]

oh

waiter waiter more nils please

[faint yacht]

draw_card(G.deck, G.hand, i*100/#allnotifcards, 'up', true, G.deck.cards[i])

[hidden sable]

YES

[hidden sable]

nils work fine

now

[faint yacht]

Now exit the run and re-enter to check if it stays.

[hidden sable]

finding out theres a sort option

i can remake one of my older cards

that i didnt want to have sort

but first

[hidden sable]

this

main menu > continue and its still here

[faint yacht]

Good.

[hidden sable]

alr now to remake that one card

oh i also have to

i gotta make the chance effect too

but lemme fix the other card with my newfound power

true test

oh no, a bug

[hidden sable]

just realized its here too

i have to somehow edit the drawing of the cards to fill the space again

nice i fixed the old card

i have gained a newfound power

[red flower]

elaborate?

[hidden sable]

its always trying to draw 8 cards, i need to draw the beaming cards first then recheck how many spots it needs to fill

i also need to do my own checks as well

[red flower]

well if you return cards_to_draw = amount in that context it modifies the cards to draw

context.amount is the original amount it was about to draw

[hidden sable]

cards_to_draw is a global?

[red flower]

no

return it as in return { cards_to_draw = amount }

[hidden sable]

oh

also do i need any of this at the bottom of my hook

[red flower]

which hook

[red flower]

oh then you cant do what i said

[hidden sable]

sad

[red flower]

you would need to patch where the serpent is

[hidden sable]

OH NO

PATCHING

[red flower]

you can maybe do something with ret there but idk

[hidden sable]

ok what if

i just straight up handle card drawing myself

is there a way to prevent cards from getting drawn from drawing_cards so i can do it myself

[red flower]

just patch lmao

[hidden sable]

patching is scary

[manic rune]

patching isnt that scary

i somehow knew you were gonna say that

[red flower]

it's easier than whatever youre suggesting

[manic rune]

like, a mile away

[hidden sable]

it sounds scary

[manic rune]

sob

[manic rune]

its literally just:
- oh i want to patch into this file
- oh i want to patch before/at/after section of code

here's a patch i do for the serpent thing (i still need to change it to the new context)
https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/bfe4f9bfc4d38135c652aeed94b0942ad0a1f736/lovely/effects.toml#L14

[hidden sable]

ok well yall are gonna have to give me a How to patch in a Balatro mod Walkthrough part 73

[red flower]

haha

[hidden sable]

what is sperpent again

[hidden sable]

oh that one

not even a boss

bro helps

[faint yacht]

...actually, if you are to draw those specific cards first, you need to hook CardArea:shuffle and perform said shuffling there to ensure that those cards end up on top of deck.

Or you could just force-draw those cards regardless, like I do with my Notification cards.

[hidden sable]

so with patching, will my card draw setup thing migrate to a patch or stay a hook

[red flower]

i would put it in the patch so you can calculate how many cards to draw

easily

[hidden sable]

alright

this only vaguely makes sense

[red flower]

the only part of the payload you care about is the hand_space part

but its this card if you want to parse the effect

[tired kestrel]

wait is this replcing the code? or?

(just wondering)

was this just adding?

[red flower]

thats adding code before the line if G.GAME.blind.name == 'The Serpent' and

[tired kestrel]

Ah. I see

now what is the thing that can replace a line of code or?

[red flower]

position = 'at'

[gilded blaze]

I'm still a bit confused about the new probability calc

if context.mod_probability then
    context.numerator = context.numerator + 1
end

does this code add 1 to all probabilities

[hidden sable]

so how do i "start" a patch

[red flower]

i think you need to return numerator

[red flower]

wdym

[hidden sable]

like

is there a function or

[red flower]

no you just put it in the code and it does it

[gilded blaze]

return numerator alone or inside a table

[hidden sable]

whats the [[patches]] and [patches.pattern

[red flower]

return { numerator = amount }

[gilded blaze]

I see

[red flower]

https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector#patches

[gilded blaze]

if context.mod_probability then
    return { numerator = context.numerator + 1 }
end

like this?

[red flower]

maybe? i havent used it yet

[gilded blaze]

💀

damn, this change is gonna break a lot of mods

[red flower]

this is what oops does

[gilded blaze]

[tired kestrel]

alright I think I finally got something in pogress

[gilded blaze]

since Oops uses the new context, how do additive probabilities work along side

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tired kestrel]

oh my god something worked

the patch

but I got an error

[gilded blaze]

use apostrophe ('), not backtick (`)

[crisp coral]

left to right i suppose

[gilded blaze]

revolution to probability manipulation, damn

[red flower]

im still thinking about what to do with jokerdisplay

[gilded blaze]

SMODS.get_probability_vars returns 2 values: numerator and denominator
SMODS.pseudorandom_probability grabs the 2 said values and returns pseudorandom(seed) < numerator/denominator
I'm gonna assume we use the first function to grab the values for loc_vars, and the second in calculate

gosh this is driving me nuts

[red flower]

afaik yes

[hard mica]

yeah but the problem is , i have more objectives that isnt exactly when in a blind like getting 3 jokers in an ante or during a blind , so yeah , theres different objectives in different situations(example in ss)

[hidden sable]

amazing joker idea

[gilded blaze]

I can't really tell the difference between additive and fixed probability
at least code-wise

[hearty crane]

600 chips seems easy

[hidden sable]

it probably scales

[hard mica]

It scales with ante

[hearty crane]

oh

i still would have something crazy builded

[hidden sable]

do i do this in a separate file?

[gilded blaze]

put your patches inside lovely.toml
or alternatively, any name with .toml extension inside lovely folder

[hidden sable]

so that's why it's formatted differently

[gilded blaze]

how does fixed probability even work if it takes the value returned by additive

[red flower]

honestly i have no idea

[hidden sable]

so what do i even patch

[red flower]

but there is a typo

[red flower]

@wintry solar

[hidden sable]

numberator is tough

[hidden sable]

first i gotta find out where to patch right

i already know i want to patch before

so what would be the spot i patch

[red flower]

the same spot i sent you?

[hidden sable]

that'll work?

what's pattern

lemme guess pattern is the search part

and payload is the replace

[red flower]

yes

[hidden sable]

my brain, it's getting bigger

so i gotta find my own pattern for drawing cards

[red flower]

the pattern is the one i sent

the payload shold be something similar to what you did in the context

but modify hand_space so that it doesnt draw extra cards

[tired kestrel]

@red flower Good news I think I managed to get the ovely patches to work however I think somehow it's not activating the four of a kind.

[ivory coral]

trying to make a joker with a different mult effect depending on poker hand
and so im trying to make a way for the joker to reference which value corresponds to which poker hand
my idea was to create a meta-table of subtables in the joker's config which have the information i need (since i cant make a string as a config variable name) like this:

    {'High Card', 1},
    {'Pair', 2},
    {'Two Pair', 4}
    {'Three of a Kind', 6},
    {'Straight', 8},
    {'Flush', 7},
    {'Full House', 10},
    {'Four of a Kind', 12},
    {'Straight Flush', 14},
    {'Five of a Kind', 18},
    {'Flush House', 22},
    {'Flush Five', 26}
},```
but my problem now is if i get say a global variable with a specific poker hand (ex `example_hand = 'Three of a Kind'`) how would i tell things such as my `loc_vars` function which subtable to get the values it needs from?
theres probably a simple answer to this but i cant think of it

[hidden sable]

but i'm not checking for the serpent?

[red flower]

you want this to happen in the same function the serpent does

the serpent part doesnt matter thats just what the line says

[red flower]

this would probably be better so you can do mult_ref[handname]

mult_ref = {
    ['High Card'] = 1,
    ['Pair'] =  2
    -- etc
}

[hidden sable]

so this will be

<code>
if G.GAME.blind.name == 'The Serpent' and

[ivory coral]

oooh i see
i think ive seen smth like that in the vanilla code

[ivory coral]

so i could just use mult_ref['Pair']?

[red flower]

it has to be called lovely.toml or be in a lovely folder

[red flower]

yes

[hidden sable]

oh right

[ivory coral]

neat, thank you

[hidden sable]

now i just replace payload, would it be similar to what im doing with the hook

this wouldnt work right

[red flower]

yes

just try putting the loop there

[hidden sable]

😭

the glink nugget error

[red flower]

youre missing the manifest yeah

[hidden sable]

patching is scary, because the errors are even MORE incomprehensible

[red flower]

dont put the context there, just the loop

[hidden sable]

oh ko

wow that worked

now uhhh

gotta fix the overdraw error

mods tie him up

[red flower]

oh wow this one is new

<@&1133519078540185692>

[tired kestrel]

is it real?

Holy!

uhh.

[hidden sable]

that guy is in the nubert facility discord too

[red flower]

anyway, now you can modify hand_space to do that

[hidden sable]

hand_space is global?

[red flower]

no, it's local to that function youre injecting into

[hidden sable]

wait, what exactly does hand space represent, how many cards to draw?

[red flower]

yes

[hidden sable]

oh, so basically is a global, just is local on the inside

treat it like a global

for that function only

[ivory coral]

quick followup, for a modded poker hand should i still use its name or key instead

[red flower]

modprefix_key

[sonic cedar]

so your setup works, but as i said it lags/crashes my game whenever it tries to get used. did i set it up wrong?

[hidden sable]

so make hand_space equal to hand size - 1 for every beaming card in hand (ill make beaming overdraw fix later)

whats the hand size global again

[red flower]

no, you also need to take into account the cards already in hand
