well im only drawing beaming cards first

then im doing the math

[red flower]

just substracting from hand_space (and making sure it doesnt go under 0) should work

[red flower]

but there are cards in hand when you draw the second time

[tired kestrel]

what does that mean?

[hidden sable]

yeah but im editing the space before then

[hidden sable]

but this solution works better too

[tired kestrel]

N' I checked the console and saw this

[hidden sable]

like so?

[red flower]

it means it missed the patch because it couldnt find the line

[tired kestrel]

then how do I get it to find the spesific line

[red flower]

i would do hand_space = math.max(0, hand_space-1)

[red flower]

look at the lovely/dump and copy the whole line

[hidden sable]

awesome

[tired kestrel]

this

[formal parrot]

Hello lovely devs

[hidden sable]

also for the chance effect would i hook or patch

[lament agate]

cross my mod

[red flower]

does it lose the enhancement or just the effect?

[hidden sable]

enhancement

[tired kestrel]

not sure what you meant by that but honestly how do I get the whole parts line thing?

[hidden sable]

should probably say that

[tired kestrel]

I was trying to get he _4 one

[red flower]

i would do it in the same hook probably

[hidden sable]

so hook not patch

[red flower]

sorry, same patch

[lament agate]

is it possible to have the house boss blind effect in a joker?

[tired kestrel]

was it something like this?

[hidden sable]

thats it im killing you

cant stand these lies

[sonic cedar]

realizing i can probably just ask this generally
does anyone know why this causes my framerate to hit rock bottom?
like it works, but only after like 8 minutes of powerpoint slides
(image 1: main file, image 2: patch)

[red flower]

yes
https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/fbfeb4d2e14111c9c47706f71cc25c7b50e021c9/src/blinds.lua#L97

[lament agate]

i see i see

[red flower]

what you posted before looked right to me idk

[tired kestrel]

then what would be the issue was it the regqx?

[hidden sable]

so in the cards ability extra i have odds, to calculate the chance i would do
if pseudorandom('glink nuggets') < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / card.ability.extra.odds then

[red flower]

can i see the patch

[lament agate]

what is context.to_area

[tired kestrel]

this is the code I had:

[gaunt thistle]

this does not need to be a regex patch

just use a pattern patch

[red flower]

the area the card is drawn to

[lament agate]

i see

[tired kestrel]

I did it but somehow the code that tricks the game that it's a four of a kind isn't working

[hidden sable]

how do i set the cards enhancement to nothing and display a message (and what message would i display if its about light)

[pastel torrent]

is this a correct way to identify all the sealed cards? if not please send a correct argument cannot find anything in docs

[red flower]

i think it's v.seal

[hidden sable]

also whats the hand size global, need it for beaming overdraw fix

[hidden sable]

if v.seal then

[pastel torrent]

thanks

[red flower]

G.hand.config.card_limit

[hidden sable]

and this?

[red flower]

to display a message you do SMODS.calculate_effect({ message = "your message"}, card)

for the other one idk

maybe card:set_ability("c_base")?

[hidden sable]

i need to have a for loop somewhere- actually wait can i just do i check to see if the amount of cards in hand is >= hand size?

[gleaming yew]

Is there a way to make a card give a higher selection limit like some do in Cryptid?
-# i was gonna say Cybrid but I know that's wrong

[tall jewel]

CardArea.config.highlighted_limit = config.highlight_limit or 5

[hidden sable]

that didnt work

[red flower]

if you mean for play/discard then

[gleaming yew]

like. play, discard, AND select

[red flower]

yeah that handles it

[tired kestrel]

did this even get included?

to what I'm patching?

[red flower]

check the dump

but also you don't need to patch a whole function

just put it in your mod and then use it where you need it

[tired kestrel]

so like no need to have it patched?

the whole code?

[hidden sable]

my logic is sound right?

[lament agate]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.first_hand_drawn and not context.blueprint then
            for _, v in ipairs(G.hand.cards) do
                if v.ability.play_flipped ~= true then
                    v.ability.play_flipped = true 
                    v:flip()
                end
            end
        end

        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
            if context.other_card.ability.play_flipped then
                return {
                    Xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult,
                    colour = G.C.PURPLE
                }
            end
        end

        -- Cleanup after scoring
        if context.end_of_round then
            for _, v in ipairs(G.hand.cards) do
                if v.ability.play_flipped then
                    v.ability.play_flipped = nil
                    v:flip()
                end
            end
        end
    end
}

am i doing this right?

[hidden sable]

message needs to be supplied for the colour part

[tired kestrel]

I'm trying to check

[lament agate]

if i delete the color?

[hidden sable]

also isnt it just xmult

not Xmult

[tired kestrel]

but I don't know where I can look in the dump

[lament agate]

case sensitive?

[hidden sable]

itll still work, just the message wont be colored unless you supply your own

[hidden sable]

idk tho

prolly

[lament agate]

it worked

[tired kestrel]

I've been trying to look in the dump

and I couldn't find anything

I'm freaking out

I thought te patch would work

but...

Now...

I need a direct link for the actual dump

I think I might be looking at the wrong dump

[red flower]

it's in your mods folder under lovely/dump

[lament agate]

how do you disable cards sorting

[tired kestrel]

ooooh

it got added there

which is great

but why is it not triggering

[red flower]

i think you would need to patch where the buttons get created to add a function that disables them

[hidden sable]

my logic is sound? because its not working for some reason, still overdraws

[tired kestrel]

I think the problem is probably the entire code itself

[vapid sable]

i made a prototype of a mod but when i load in the game it just doesnt do anything..? i have the lovely thing .dll in my mod folder but is there anything else i have to do

[red flower]

you're only checking before the loop so it will overdraw inside the loop

[tranquil gull]

gonna ask again here - i never quite figured this out

[red flower]

oh wait no nvm i misread

[lament agate]

patch to?

[hidden sable]

take your time

[red flower]

it might be because of event timing idk

[sonic cedar]

oh my god.
-# i'll uhhhhh just wait until somecom is back 😭

[red flower]

search for {n=G.UIT.T, config={text = localize('k_suit'), scale = text_scale*0.7, colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_LIGHT}}

[hidden sable]

besides everything else works fine without the check so maybe ill just keep this as a bonus of beaming cards

[tranquil gull]

operator_node_shit = function(e)
    if e.children[1] and not e.children[1].config.is_thing then
        print("Updating child...")
        e.children[1]:remove()
        e.children[1] = nil

        e.UIBox:add_child{n=G.UIT.T, config={is_thing = true, text = "+", scale = 2, colour = G.C.BLUE, shadow = true}}
    end
end

this is getting called correctly, but

it's yeeting the entire sidebar

[lament agate]

thanks

[lament agate]

can i see the full screenshot

[lament agate]

nice

i just want to see it lmao

[tranquil gull]

any idea how to fix this?

[daring fern]

Is it only copying one joker?

[sonic cedar]

it's

1. copying the costumed keys again ("j_hpfx_reprint" instead of "j_misprint")
2. copying the IJIRAQ???
3. i literally do not have the framerate to see if it can copy more than one (my game does not make it that far)

but since the fake misprint has to turn into ijiraq, it DID copy properly, as it turned into itself

[daring fern]

It shouldn't be lagging because I copied about, 100 jokers, and there wasn't much lag.

Yes, but if the list has 2050 entries as it seems, that would cause lag probably.

[lament agate]

@formal parrot so like, i want to put the position mult in my description, how do i put the position_mult into the loc_vars

[sonic cedar]

and yet i cant get past 1 😭
which is why i was asking about the function, since i had to do that by hand i wanted to make sure i didnt mess it up

[hidden sable]

how can i get the effect clear and the message to line up?

[formal parrot]

Position mult c

?

[lament agate]

c?

[formal parrot]

Typo

[daring fern]

Put the clearing in an event.

[formal parrot]

No c

[hidden sable]

it is

[daring fern]

No, it's not, remove the event.

[lament agate]

oh yeah its my local function

[hidden sable]

wh- huh?

[formal parrot]

Hmmm , i think i know

[hidden sable]

thats an event

[red flower]

you need to put the set_ability part in its own event

[lament agate]

do tell

[hidden sable]

oh

[formal parrot]

Attender

[daring fern]

The message from SMODS.calculate_effect is in an event itself, so you're putting an event in an event but the func is not in an event.

[lament agate]

attender?

[formal parrot]

Wait bro

[lament agate]

bruh

[main minnow]

this is crashing with "attempt to index 'card' (a nil value)" - it's copied directly from the take_ownership function in game_object.lua, the only difference is the thing near the start which checks for the presence of a joker and checks whether the scored card is a king. looking at the stack trace it seems like the problem is with the get_id() bit, but i have no idea why that should be failing

SMODS.Enhancement:take_ownership('glass', {
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
      if (not (next(SMODS.find_card("j_scp_mediator")) and card.get_id() ~= 13)) and context.destroy_card and (context.cardarea == G.play) and (context.destroy_card == card) and (pseudorandom('glass') < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / card.ability.extra) then
        card.glass_trigger = true
        return { remove = true }
      end
    end,
  }
)

[sonic cedar]

ok but why in the world would it be adding that many

[hidden sable]

like this?

[formal parrot]

You just do the same in loc_vars

[daring fern]

It seems you put self.config.center.key instead of self.config.center_key

[red flower]

card:get_id()

[lament agate]

as in?

[main minnow]

ah goddammit

thanks

[formal parrot]

        local mult = 0
     
            —Your for ,
        return { vars = {mult*i } }
    end,```

[lament agate]

your for?

[formal parrot]

The one in calculate

[sonic cedar]

ill see if this fixes the lag

[formal parrot]

The for loop

[hidden sable]

this may look stupid but hear me out

[lament agate]

ohhh

wait i still dont get it

HOLD ON

let me drink some water

[formal parrot]

Wait i’ll find an example

[lament agate]

sure

ill wait

[formal parrot]

(You’re too smart for ts)

[lament agate]

Replace G.playing_cards by G.jokers

[red flower]

G.jokers.cards

[formal parrot]

As the boss said ⬆️

[lament agate]

thanks people

[sonic cedar]

started a run, got supernova
triggered it
(there are 420 entries. the other 418 are ijiraq)

[daring fern]

Perhaps it has something to do with how you are putting the keys in the table?

[hidden sable]

is there any way to make particles appear on the cards when getting shimmered

[daring fern]

Yes.

[sonic cedar]

like in the patch? or during the transformation?

[hidden sable]

how mr poly bridge

god dammit mr poly bridge

[formal parrot]

Mr poly bridge 😭

[hidden sable]

i know theres a particle function

but idfk how to use it

[stiff quiver]

can suits have a calculate?

[merry raven]

Oh yeah, been meaning to ask @red flower, I've managed to create a toggleable cardarea thanks to you, called it G.mechanic_sprites
But there's a problem, if I place cards like Jokers into it via draw_card(G.play, G.mechanic_sprites, 90, 'up', nil),
I can't modify it or change it, such it changing its loc_txt or pos mid-calculation, and I haven't tested if Jokers added to it will carry out its effects as intended
Any insights?

[daring fern]

No.

[formal parrot]

Its called draw step

[formal parrot]

Why😭

[hidden sable]

even more confusing

[formal parrot]

Its 7 lines maximum

[hidden sable]

i just want silly particles 😭

[stiff quiver]

want to make a suit that gives 10x chips of what others give, so a two would give 20 chips, a 3 30 etc

[hidden sable]

can i at least wrap it in a function to call over and over for a bunch of other things

[formal parrot]

You can add a game object

Or a deck

Can you add new suits ? I think you can

[red flower]

i wouldnt use draw_card, i would emplace them manually
and they won't have effects unless you patch the area into the calculation pipeline

i dont understand the pos and loc_txt thing

[stiff quiver]

whats a game object

[formal parrot]

Partner mod has these little card buddies that has different effects
Maybe you can code a game object similar to it

[daring fern]

You would probably hook Card:get_chip_bonus()

[merry raven]

For example, things like card.children.center:set_sprite_pos doesn't work if the Joker is in the new cardarea instead of G.jokers

[red flower]

i dont see why it wouldnt

[formal parrot]

Anything from jokers to cards is a game object

[stiff quiver]

where? in ths smods.suit?

[merry raven]

Unfortunately it didn't work for me, but since you pointed out to not use draw_card, maybe I've been adding Jokers wrong?
This is how I went about it

for i = 1, 1 do
            local card = Card(G.play.T.x + G.play.T.w / 2, G.play.T.y, G.CARD_W, G.CARD_H, 
                nil, 
                G.P_CENTERS.j_fm_operator_panel)
            card:start_materialize({G.C.SECONDARY_SET.Enhanced})
            G.play:emplace(card)
            draw_card(G.play, G.mechanic_sprites, 90, 'up', nil)
        end

[daring fern]

No.

[lament agate]

@formal parrot what do i do with this

[hidden sable]

how do i make a simple config page

[merry raven]

I have a Joker that changes its description when a card with a special sticker is scored
It's one of the interactions that won't go through if I put it in my new cardarea

[formal parrot]

You see the for in your calculate function?

Replace it with that one

[daring fern]

local oldcardgetchipbonus = Card.get_chip_bonus
function Card:get_chip_bonus()
    local g = oldcardgetchipbonus(self)
    if self:is_suit("modprefix_key") then g = g * 10 end
    return g
end

[formal parrot]

Like

Copy the one in calculate and put it there

[red flower]

try changing Card(...) for SMODS.create_card{ key = "j_fm_operator_panel", area = G.play }

[hidden sable]

anyone?

[sonic cedar]

visualization of what i mean with my question of "which one?"

[hidden sable]

idk if im doing this right

[red flower]

check jokerdisplay

[formal parrot]

👍

[hidden sable]

whar

what is jokerdisplay

[formal parrot]

Good job

[red flower]

that one's is written by eremel

[red flower]

first google result for me

[hidden sable]

check jokerdisplays config code?

[wintry solar]

D:

[red flower]

yes

[hidden sable]

i mean a visual config page

like ingame

[maiden phoenix]

Eremel so good at Balatro codding he's adding typos too

[red flower]

yes

[sonic cedar]

thunk arc

[formal parrot]

Kinda stupid

[wintry solar]

I should stop coding after a night of raiding

[formal parrot]

Raiding

…..who?

[maiden phoenix]

Eremel raided my house

[red flower]

wow im assuming

[maiden phoenix]

He took everything

[daring fern]

I see the issue now, when I told you to replace SEALS.get_quantum_jokers(card) I meant replace it with copy_table(yourtable)

[sonic cedar]

assuming what
-#

[red flower]

wow

[sonic cedar]

OHHHHHH I SEE

[formal parrot]

Eremel please document the rest smods functions i beg 🙏

[sonic cedar]

whoa

[lament agate]

something something unexpected symbol @formal parrot

[wintry solar]

no u

I am slowly doing calculation docs

They are a laborious task

[merry raven]

for i = 1, 1 do
            local card = SMODS.create_card{ key = "j_fm_operator_panel", area = G.play }
            card:start_materialize({G.C.SECONDARY_SET.Enhanced})
            G.play:emplace(card)
            draw_card(G.play, G.mechanics_sprites, 90, 'up', nil)
        end

The Joker for some reason appeared with a Foil edition before instantly crashing with an error attempt to upvalue 'to' (a nil value) that took place in functions/common_events.lua

[sonic cedar]

truth nuke

[hidden sable]

how does one do this

[tepid crow]

numberator is kinda crazy

[main minnow]

okay i fixed that but it's now going into an infinite loop when i select a glass card - seemingly get_id() has to check the card's enhancements to see if it's stone, which ends up calling this same calculate function recursively

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/JokerDisplay/blob/main/src/config_tab.lua

[daring fern]

Also you probably want to check that the key is the joker you want this to happen on, because this would probably happen on any joker, as long as the table exists.

[formal parrot]

Can i see the crash ?

[red flower]

oh yeah thats quantum enhancements
put the context check before eveything else

[tepid crow]

that looks like you're missing an end no

[lament agate]

again?

[tepid crow]

wdym again

[lament agate]

nevermind

i figured it out

im a fucking dumbass

[hidden sable]

OH

i thought you have to do that inside config

lol

[sonic cedar]

where would i put that? cause obv itd just be a if card config center key blabla

[lament agate]

now what do i put in config

[red flower]

is this the girl from 100% orange juice

[daring fern]

At the top, where you're checking if the table exists.

[formal parrot]

Seriously?

😭😭

[lament agate]

..pos_mult?

[formal parrot]

Duh

Base_mult

[lament agate]

i shouldnt be drinking before this

[formal parrot]

YOU ARE DRINKING WATER

[lament agate]

NOT SO WATER

[wintry solar]

I guess my hands just default to typing number 🤷‍♂️

[daring fern]

Yes.

[formal parrot]

Yeah that’s correct

Does it not work ?

[stiff quiver]

that worked thanks! now how would i change the cards description to say it gives 60 chips instead of 6?

[sonic cedar]

test time then

[merry raven]

Oh god it's getting worse

for i = 1, 1 do
            local card = SMODS.create_card{ key = "j_fm_operator_panel", area = G.mechanic_sprites }
            card:start_materialize({G.C.SECONDARY_SET.Enhanced})
            G.play:emplace(card)
        end

Hang on

[red flower]

try just SMODS.add_card{ key = "j_fm_operator_panel", area = G.mechanic_sprites } without the emplace

[merry raven]

I'm a fucking idot

[red flower]

that will not have the animation tho

[tired kestrel]

why isn't the patches working?

I did get patches to work to inject but it's not activating what I wanted:

I want to have the joker to convert the three of a kind into a four of a kind.

[daring fern]

Wouldn't you hook evaluate_poker_hand for that?

[merry raven]

It did put the Joker in the new cardarea, but like I said before, the interactions with the Joker (like changing its description or pos) aren't working

[red flower]

weird

[merry raven]

I guess the new cardarea isn't technically a true G.jokers area

[red flower]

it shouldnt matter, my new areas work fine

[merry raven]

Hmmm

[red flower]

with loc_vars and everything

[hidden sable]

i think i done goofed something up

[formal parrot]

Grup

[red flower]

gurp

[tired kestrel]

likI tried.

or atleast Idid

how do I do that?

[red flower]

when does card.ability.extra.state get modified

[sonic cedar]

...the costume isnt transforming

[tired kestrel]

how does evaluate_poker_hand work when it's not.

[merry raven]

Right inside the Operator Panel's calculate

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            for _, scoredCard in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
                if scoredCard.ability.fm_scanner then
                    card.ability.extra.state = "scanner"
                    card:juice_up()
                    card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({ x = 3, y = 0 })
                    return {
                        message = "Scanned!",
                        sound = "fm_fallen_crypt_scanner",
                        colour = G.C.ORANGE
                    }
                end
            end
        end
    end

[hidden sable]

what is dictating the align here

[daring fern]

Something like this:

[red flower]

oh well then yeah, like I said you need to patch it into the calculation pipeline for the effects

[hidden sable]

what are these??

[merry raven]

Huh
Where do I start looking into that
Like where do I patch it into, what should the payload be, etc

[tired kestrel]

Alright. I did try that but I couldn't locate "cry_exploit_override."

[sonic cedar]

what did you mean by "this to happen on" here? like what is "this"

[tired kestrel]

originally

[red flower]

alignment of the uibox
tm = top middle
cm = center middle
it's explained in one of the files

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/bfe4f9bfc4d38135c652aeed94b0942ad0a1f736/lovely/zones.toml#L108

[daring fern]

It's just the key of the hand.

[hidden sable]

then whys bro over here

[red flower]

idk whats the whole code

[tired kestrel]

alright good to know

[formal parrot]

@lament agate send ss of loc_vars

[tired kestrel]

let me try something

[hidden sable]

i stole it from better mouse and gamepad

[formal parrot]

Shamelessly stealing

Lmao

[hidden sable]

its just a config menu

i think its what smods wiki tells you to do anyway

[lament agate]

loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        local position_mult = 0
        if G.jokers.cards then
            for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
                if G.jokers.cards[i] == card then
                    position_mult = i * card.ability.extra.base_mult
                end
            end
        end
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.base_mult, card.ability.extra.base_mult + position_mult } }
    end,
    unlock

[formal parrot]

Jk

[formal parrot]

You’re kinda stupid

[red flower]

no idea, create_toggle might have the wrong default alignment for your case

[snow vale]

why aint this working?

it wont destroy

[hidden sable]

angr

how chnage align

[formal parrot]

loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        local position_mult = 0

[lament agate]

IM TRYING

[red flower]

local variables reset every time calculate is called

[lament agate]

oh

[snow vale]

oh

[lament agate]

oh ffs

YOU CAN JUST TELL ME THAT

[red flower]

idk i dont have the code with me rn

[formal parrot]

No you get a cookie for trying 🍪

[hidden sable]

AY ITS DOWN EHRE NOW

[main minnow]

this joker (aces score x1.5 mult) is mostly working, except that for some reason the joker itself is scoring an extra x1.5 after all the cards are scored? there's no context.joker_main in here so i've got no clue why it should be doing anything at that point?

[snow vale]

gurp

[red flower]

save the Xmult to config.extra not to config

[main minnow]

ty

[formal parrot]

Gurp

[lament agate]

how do you add more picks in booster pack

while having jokers that give you it

for example now you can pick 2

[formal parrot]

Add_to_deck

[lament agate]

or 3 in mega

[formal parrot]

Check cryptid

[hidden sable]

any way to make the toggle box look like my markup above

[lament agate]

yeah which

[merry raven]

Hang on
Is this patch patching into your own mod's files
Christ I am not prepared for this level of depth

[formal parrot]

Idk i don’t play cryptid , you do

[tired kestrel]

like this?

[red flower]

it's patching into SMODS's src/utils

[lament agate]

god dnmanit

[daring fern]

No, init is cryptid specific.

[tired kestrel]

Well I tried to make it somehow but... yeah.

[tired kestrel]

oh then what would be for regular balatro mods?

update?

[red flower]

not putting it inside the joker

[tired kestrel]

or how is it suppsoed to be correct?

[lament agate]

@daring fern any idea?

[hidden sable]

this is probably getting into ui wizard territory but i jsut wany config descriptors 😭

[tired kestrel]

outside the joker?

[red flower]

yes

[lament agate]

thanks

[tired kestrel]

so now I got this what's next?

[red flower]

thats it

idk if the hook itself is correct tho

[merry raven]

I see
Yeah I was asking that since the patch didn't recognize anything
Do you just lump the entire SMODS src folder into your mod folder

[tired kestrel]

So that's all for this code?

[hidden sable]

🙏

[tired kestrel]

was there anything for like "current_hand" ?

[red flower]

no

[sonic cedar]

fixed the transformation thing, but:

1. it DOES store the key in the table properly,
2. it doesnt become part of the joker

[formal parrot]

Lovely patches 😭

[red flower]

what version of lovely

[lament agate]

yeah thats why im not doing it LMAO

gotta think of something else for spoonful joker

[merry raven]

Lovely 0.6.0

[red flower]

update

[lament agate]

SIX????

WHATTTTT

[merry raven]

guh

[sonic cedar]

let me print check this first actually

[daring fern]

What do you mean it doesnt become part of the joker?

[sonic cedar]

ijiraq doesnt gain the effect

[tired kestrel]

@daring fern what's next for this?

I end up doing this next

[daring fern]

Did you define current_hand?

[sonic cedar]

fibonacci turns into ijiraq, but ijiraq doesnt get fibonacci effect

[tired kestrel]

not sure what you'd mean by that.

like assign to function?

[tired kestrel]

like I just did on this image?

[daring fern]

Did you define replacing_hand?

[tired kestrel]

...no?

[sonic cedar]

gonna run a print("test") to see if it reaches it

[daring fern]

You need to define it.

[tired kestrel]

how?

remind me

or elaborate

I'm asking How?

was I suppoed to like assign something?

or how I can define it?

like this?

replacing_hand = {}?

I feel like I'm crazy the way how it's going on.

Sorry about that

I just felt a bit lost or didn't quite understand.

[gilded narwhal]

hey gang how does one make a joker change the money per unused hand

I know how decks can do it but idk how to make that happen with jonklers

[tired kestrel]

@red flower help me on this since obviously I didn't quite catch exactly.

[red flower]

seems complicated

[tired kestrel]

or even understand what Something meant

[tired kestrel]

and he didn't elaborate how it works or how it was done?

Cause honestly I'm almsot close

[red flower]

🤷

[merry raven]

Got it updated to 0.8.0
No more of that lovely error, but still no interactions with Jokers in the new cardarea, despite the patch
I think part of the reason is because I didn't get the code for creating the new cardarea from you, it was from another person who made the cinema themed mod
Maybe something isn't lining up

[tired kestrel]

since earlier I tried the cryptid code and I was lost to understand.

[red flower]

@hushed field

or is it reverie

[merry raven]

Forgot, but it was from this
https://gist.github.com/dvrp0/c2581403576c4140e0224e47564e16c5

Yep it's reverie

[hidden sable]

🙏

[hushed field]

I assume Reverie because while I do add a cardarea there, it's kinda specific in its behaviour

ah, yeah

[tired kestrel]

Can anyone please help me how exactly what define meant for replacing_hand?

I have trouble trying to think what it is.

at this point

@daring fern I know I hate to ping but I just want to know or atleast maybe give a hint, how can I define that when I had it like put the replacing hand right next to the function.

I know I sorta freaked out

not knowing what you meant by that.

[tired kestrel]

I'd even asked if this is what you meant.

wait was it actually this?

[red flower]

no thats for talisman compatibility

nothing to do with what you want to do

[tired kestrel]

so I have to just give up?

just because he didn't specify on how to define it?

[red flower]

i mean it does seem above your knowledge level, no offense

[tired kestrel]

that's what I'm afraid of

[red flower]

like I said before I will look into it after work to see if I can add a context for it to smods

[tired kestrel]

Yeah cause honestly

I don't know exactyl what he meant by define for replacing hand

[red flower]

but i will need to have the code and the game with me to know how to do it

[tired kestrel]

if you needed the code I'll rpovide it here or in DMS.

cause right now I need a break

[red flower]

nah, i mean the game's code

[tired kestrel]

oh.

but yeah, honestly. it's actually a bit akward on how Something just usually straight up ignored what I'm asking about that if what I guessed was right.

and I actually felt embarrased for having a panic attack.

[red flower]

maybe he's busy and hasn't seen it yet

[tired kestrel]

oh.

[hidden sable]

WHAT DID I DO 😭

[tired kestrel]

hopefully cause honestly sometimes I just hate that just happens.

without having to know

what's going on.

so yeah, in a way sorry too.

it was sorta out-of-character of me to be somewhat thought I was being ignored without realizing since well.

I've tried to get it to work and yet it's not that simple

[hidden sable]

WHAT DID I DO AGAIN

the ui object that makes things go up and down is R right

[red flower]

R is a row yes

but you need to wrap it in a column

[hidden sable]

it is

[tired kestrel]

Y'know what I'm gonna take a break now.

I don't know when he'll be responding

but yeah

probably best if I can take a break

[red flower]

each T node has to be in its own R node

[hidden sable]

😭

[red flower]

UI is sorcery

[stark viper]

Howdy yall, apologies if this is a strange place to ask this, but I'm a complete beginner to Lua, and I'm currently learning using VSCode. I'm having an issue with creating comments in the VSCode editor, where comments seem to be displaying as a completely different syntax. As an example, pictured below is very simple text that should be displaying in the terminal whenever the program is run. However, upon actually running the program, I get the error in the second image. Would anyone be able to help me figure out what's happening?

[hidden sable]

HOLY SHIT

[red flower]

what are you using to run it

[hidden sable]

THAT WORKED FIRST TRY

just gotta do some tweaking and itll good good

then i can finally localize gurp

too small?

[sour garden]

could you try doing a multiline comment, with --[[ like this ]]--

[stark viper]

i'm running it all within VSCode. I just realized there's a Python Debugger that keeps coming up, would that have anything to do with it? My hunch is maybe it's reading it in Python, even though I'm trying to code in Lua

[unkempt thicket]

I think I'm good at sorcery

[hidden sable]

perfect

[red flower]

yeah thats what i was thinking

vscode doesnt run lua by default

[stark viper]

the thing that is baffling me now is that I have the Python debugger extension uninstalled

idk why it's still popping up

[formal parrot]

Gurp

[red flower]

idk

[stark viper]

thanks for the guidance, i'll try to figure this garbo out lol

[sour garden]

for me, i'm trying to make a blueprint that copies the effect of the joker to the left and to the right, but i keep getting the error that "x is a nil value" on the "x.extra = y" line
am i supposed to be doing something else to add the second ability onto the first.

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        local other_joker = nil
        local other_other_joker = nil
        for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
            if G.jokers.cards[i] == card then other_other_joker = G.jokers.cards[i - 1] end
        end
        for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
            if G.jokers.cards[i] == card then other_joker = G.jokers.cards[i + 1] end
        end
        local x = SMODS.blueprint_effect(card, other_other_joker, context)
        local y = SMODS.blueprint_effect(card, other_joker, context)
        x.extra = y
        return x
    end```

[red flower]

try return SMODS.merge_effects({x, y})

[sour garden]

works perfectly, thank you

[merry raven]

I actually managed to get it fucking working @red flower

local start_run_ref = Game.start_run
function Game:start_run(args)
    -- Create the mechanic_sprites CardArea
    self.fm_mechanic_sprites = CardArea(
        0,
        0,
        self.CARD_W * 7,
        self.CARD_H * 0.95,
        {
            card_limit = 5,
            type = 'mechanic_sprites',
            highlight_limit = 1,
        }
    )
    Fatemaker.mechanic_sprites = G.fm_mechanic_sprites
    G.mechanic_sprites = self.fm_mechanic_sprites

I changed jokers to mechanic_sprites in the type value

[hidden sable]

game crashes if i highlight over the object with this loc_var check

only if i do it from the main menu

is there another way of doing that check?

[red flower]

nil check G.GAME.blind

[merry raven]

But now the current problem is that the Jokers are invisible in the new cardarea

for i = 1, 1 do
            local card = SMODS.add_card{ key = "j_fm_operator_panel", area = G.mechanic_sprites }
            card:start_materialize({G.C.SECONDARY_SET.Enhanced})
        end

But I can confirm that in the background it works, it takes up space in the cardarea, and there is a return function that makes the Joker play a sound when I score a card with a special sticker

[red flower]

i think if you don't have a defined type it doesn't know how to display them

like 'mechanic_sprites' is not a defined type

i hook some functions for the 'extra_deck' type to work in my mod

[merry raven]

I see I see

Hang on I'm still trying to dissect your mod, can you show me where you defined them
Is it still in extra_deck.lua

[red flower]

uhhh no idea :3

[merry raven]

Damn

[hidden sable]

any way to even this space

[merry raven]

This is a maze and a half

[red flower]

just looked it up, some of it is in there some is in general_ui.lua

i did this like half a year ago at this point

[formal parrot]

Gurp

[merry raven]

Ogh man yeah that is a LOT of code

[gilded narwhal]

how would I dynamically update the weight of a booster pack?

[hidden sable]

increased width and it increased the margin

[gilded narwhal]

Like i've tried something like this but it requires you to reload

[wintry solar]

It’s got the wrong alignment

[hidden sable]

thats what ima tryna figure out

but this all looks aligned

[wintry solar]

You have columns with cl

[hidden sable]

those are for the text

here ill align them so you can see

ok i mean it kinda aligned

but i want the text to be aligned to the left

[wintry solar]

You need more nesting then

[hidden sable]

my disk has been filling up a bunch every time i relaunch balala

is that a concern?

[wintry solar]

Clear your logs friend

[hidden sable]

where

[unkempt thicket]

How can i get the current mod in a lovely patch

[hidden sable]

mods>lovely>logs?

[unkempt thicket]

I mean like SMODS.current_mod

[hidden sable]

also SO CLOSE

[red flower]

there's no current mod
you can do SMODS.find_mod("modid")[1]

[hidden sable]

cleared the logs but i dont think it should be taking up over 6 gigs of space

it didnt clear

how do i fix this 😭

[unkempt thicket]

It's claiming that SMODS is nil

[red flower]

weird what are you patching

[unkempt thicket]

main.lua and =[SMODS _ "src/loader.lua"], though i don't think it claimed the 2nd as nil

[red flower]

maybe the part in main.lua is before SMODS even loads

[unkempt thicket]

The 2nd claims mods is nil

[red flower]

maybe that's before mods are loaded lol

[hidden sable]

got it to work but

fix was this

[unkempt thicket]

Is there another way? i'm trying to stop the lovely file from loading if somethings false.

[red flower]

no idea honestly

[primal robin]

What are you trying to do, actually?

[hidden sable]

config menu with that little descriptor

[primal robin]

I see. This thing was kinda problem for me too

[hidden sable]

did you copy the create_toggle and modify it like i did?

[primal robin]

No, it's much more complicated

But I'm using vanilla create_toggle

[hidden sable]

oh i just modified it

much easier imo

easily wrapped

[primal robin]

https://github.com/SleepyG11/HandyBalatro/blob/b9f2981c90e908e2b5e99d5d8eb26a08d5d4e5eb/modules/ui/parts.lua#L58

[hidden sable]

i mean it works but

seems very

uneccesary

[primal robin]

It was made before I added localization

[hidden sable]

honestly for my first ui thing i think i did a pretty good job

[primal robin]

Looks good so far, yea

[hidden sable]

heres me glazing my module by putting your not mentally insane text inside (non-gurp)

i wonder if anyones done this before

[primal robin]

Better make a bigger gap between title and desc

And btw my descriptions so long so I'm using popups for it

[hidden sable]

true, do i know how? no lol

experimenting with something

[primal robin]

Depends on how you display this lines

If it's C you can add another R with minh = 0.05 for example, or set padding = 0.05 for this C

Up to you

[hidden sable]

how do i give ui a shadow

like this 3d effect

[primal robin]

shadow = true

[hidden sable]

any color i use looks red

patch

[primal robin]

active_colour and inactive_colour you can pss into create_toggle

[tranquil gull]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/pull/776
yayy

    SMODS.Operator {
        key = "base",
        func = function(chips, mult) return chips * mult end,
        node_func = function(e)
            local op = e.children[1]
            op.config.text = "X"
            op.config.text_drawable:set("X")
            op.UIBox:recalculate()
            op.config.colour = G.C.UI_MULT
        end
    }

[primal robin]

• \✅ I didn't make new lovely files or all new lovely files have appropriate priority.

[red flower]

or all new lovely files have appropriate priority.

[primal robin]

Damn, you got me

[hidden sable]

i know, but i need new colors

to make the color look not red they have to be slightly blue

[wintry solar]

I mean some sort of description for what the pr does and how it functions would be helpful

Otherwise I will let it rot for months

[tranquil gull]

    SMODS.Operator {
        key = "balance",
        func = function(chips, mult) local avg = (chips + mult) / 2 return avg * avg end,
        node_func = function(e)
            local op = e.children[1]
            op.config.text = "X"
            op.config.text_drawable:set("X")
            op.UIBox:recalculate()
            op.config.colour = -- plasma color
        end
    }

lol

[tranquil gull]

will do but i work in 30 minutes

so

[hidden sable]

this looks nice

[tranquil gull]

that will be. delayed for a bit

[wintry solar]

Then dont submit your PR if it’s not ready

[tranquil gull]

alr fair

lemme change it to a draft pr

[sonic cedar]

forgot to say, but yeah the condition just doesnt fulfill
this also disables the effects of the costumes??

[primal robin]

This part of PR also weird

Isn't this global change should be added separately and be tested?

[tranquil gull]

images aren't loading 1s

yea i can remove that lol

i tripped on it so i thought it would be nice to add a check for it since doing SMODS:GameObject {...} is always wrong - you'd want SMODS.GameObject {...}

oop gtg

[hidden sable]

alright look at this, this looks ok right?

[primal robin]

Shadow on text is questionable

Maybe it's just me, idk

[hard mica]

anyone know how to fix this??

[iron burrow]

Sorry super amatuer here. I am trying to get more joker data here and have a single card fetching funciton to do so. What attributes in the shop cards show joker description and cost of the card? If there's a central reference for the game state object I can read that, just don't know where to find it.

[stiff quiver]

I made this code (on a seal) to change the seal's sprite if a certain joker is present, but instead it seems to be removing the cards sprite and only leaving the seal sprite without it being changed. how could i fix it? ```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_shoomimi" then
card.config.center.pos = { x = 7 , y = 0 }
break
else
card.config.center.pos = { x = 8 , y = 0 }
end
end
end

[hidden sable]

give a tag instead

or jsut create a free one when you hit shop

[daring fern]

How does one retrigger a card until probabilities occur?

[hidden sable]

hook for detection?

or patch

[daring fern]

Yes, but where?

[daring fern]

Also I already know when the probabilities trigger, I just don't know what to do to make it retrigger until that happens.

[sonic cedar]

update: it's specifically that conditional that's checking for ijiraq that disables it

i remove it and it runs

other jokers still dont trigger though

BUT the effect of the saved joker does get copied properly

tldr: almost there! so...so close...

[hidden sable]

isnt there a retrigger function

also mr poly bridge is my first ui good

[daring fern]

Yes, but that's for counting retriggers pre-calculation.

[hidden sable]

uhhh

[daring fern]

I need to alter retrigger counts during calculation.

[hidden sable]

whats the end goal, lucky card?

[daring fern]

No, any card or joker or anything that uses the new SMODS probability functions.

[hidden sable]

hmmm

[daring fern]

Because that's how I'm checking that it has triggered.

[stiff quiver]

wouldnt a while loop until the chance happens work?

[hidden sable]

is there a ui tick for making objects warp like this?

like wobble like cards

[daring fern]

Yes, it worked kind of but it didn't because it requires an initial retrigger.

[zealous glen]

I’m not sure what you’re looking for; also why can’t you look directly at the Card?

[hidden sable]

this?

[stiff quiver]

no idea then

[real night]

how would i detect when a wild card is scored

[zealous glen]

SMODS utility function

For Enhancements

[iron burrow]

I am looking for all available metadata on a card in the shop. What i've shown here is an API layer that reads the gamestate. I admit I am uneducated here so I am not sure what you mean by look directly at the Card. Like fewer wrapper functions? or is there other gamestate/context to read from?

[daring fern]

if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and SMODS.has_enhancement(context.other_card, "m_wild")

[zealous glen]

You are taking data from the card and saving it to a table, but you have the card

Naturally the card itself provides all information it has on its object

[sonic cedar]

why would the abilities of the other jokers just not trigger anymore, though? the exceptions are completely busted too

[rugged mantle]

would one be able to acess the dev menu using controller inputs? i mainly want to try with joycons but i have no experience with this sort of stuff

[hidden sable]

calculate on consumables is for having them held in hand right

[iron burrow]

Ah my mistake. Yeah, I am sending the data to a python bot over UDP so I just get a subset of the total gamestate. My main problem is I don't know what that Card object looks like

[zealous glen]

You can read the source code for the definition

[modern kindle]

hello chat of developers

[iron burrow]

I guess smods source?

[zealous glen]

Hello dilly

[zealous glen]

No

Balatro

[modern kindle]

hi :D
hope you are well

[iron burrow]

Oh really

[zealous glen]

I am not but thank you. I hope you’re well

[modern kindle]

im sorry to hear that =[

[iron burrow]

damn hope you get to feeling better Victin, you're making my day better already

[zealous glen]

Ice has complimented your mod which has me interested 👀

[daring fern]

‎

[hidden sable]

is there a way i can have a constantly changing bool value that dictates if certain consumables, jokers, and booster packs are visible

like if they appear in shop

[zealous glen]

Why does it need to be constantly changing

Can’t you evaluate dynamically

[hidden sable]

its s config

[zealous glen]

What are you using it for

[hidden sable]

to disable certain jokers, boosters, and consumables from appearing in shops

[iron burrow]

Wow sure enough the balatro source is super accessible

Thank you @zealous glen

[zealous glen]

No problem

[dire marlin]

can someone tell me how to locate my joker.lua in my main.lua file?

[zealous glen]

You can make something like Cavendish or the Enhancement-gated Jokers

[hidden sable]

i know theres in_pool but how does it work, and can i connect it up to a truwe and false, like a in_pool = config.items

[zealous glen]

Don’t

Just check if it’s possible for the object to spawn

[daring fern]

‎

[hidden sable]

wdym

[zealous glen]

Ask yourself under what conditions would the object be unable to spawn

The write a function that verifies whether or not those conditions apply

[modern kindle]

he did? :0

i gotta see

i dont see it when i search my name so i will simply take your word for it

im glad he liked it though since he has an awesome mod

[static dagger]

How would I make it so that Legendary jokers can appear in the shop? I tried overwriting all the rarities to switch their probabilities, but Legendary jokers aren't showing up, even though they should have a 70% chance of appearing.

SMODS.Rarity:take_ownership("Legendary", {
    key = "Legendary",
    loc_txt = {},
    default_weight = 0.7,
    badge_colour = HEX("b26cbb"),
    get_weight = function(self, weight, object_type)
        return weight
    end,
})

[zealous glen]

@hushed field release the icy files

[modern kindle]

lmfao

feed my ego mr ice

[zealous glen]

call it iceden

icy papers

[modern kindle]

well, you know what they say

if the mod aint good enough

its gonna get iced

[red flower]

iirc legendary is just not considered in the card creation

[modern kindle]

hi N my goat

[red flower]

hii

[modern kindle]

how are you

[hidden sable]

is there a way to detect when a run has started

[red flower]

im commuting home so im great i hate work

[zealous glen]

N’ showin’g a level of emotion’ n’ever before seen’

[red flower]

what i always reply with hiii

[hidden sable]

i wanna create a copy of a config when a run stars

[modern kindle]

isnt there a run_start or something

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hidden sable]

how

[zealous glen]

Maybe it’s the sleep deprivation getting to me

[modern kindle]

yea N always responds to me anyway with hii

that is a function

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/fbfeb4d2e14111c9c47706f71cc25c7b50e021c9/src/jokers.lua#L4841

[hidden sable]

what is run_start

[static dagger]

Do you know how I would patch legendaries back in to the shop pool? I found this bit of code in the Smods repo that deals with it, but I don't think I understand how it works

# get_current_pool
[[patches]]
[patches.regex]
target = "functions/common_events.lua"
pattern = '''(?<indent>[\t ]*)local rarity = _rarity or pseudorandom\('rarity'\.\.G\.GAME\.round_resets\.ante\.\.\(_append or ''\)\) \n[\s\S]{12}rarity = \(_legendary and 4\) or \(rarity > 0\.95 and 3\) or \(rarity > 0\.7 and 2\) or 1'''
position = "at"
payload = '''
_rarity = (_legendary and 4) or (type(_rarity) == "number" and ((_rarity > 0.95 and 3) or (_rarity > 0.7 and 2) or 1)) or _rarity
_rarity = ({Common = 1, Uncommon = 2, Rare = 3, Legendary = 4})[_rarity] or _rarity
local rarity = _rarity or SMODS.poll_rarity("Joker", 'rarity'..G.GAME.round_resets.ante..(_append or ''))
'''

[red flower]

you would hook SMODS.poll_rarity probably

[sonic cedar]

smoes

[zealous glen]

Ohhh

[red flower]

the next time someone comments on one of my typos im blocking them

[sonic cedar]

i feel like jesse from minecraft story mode rn

[red flower]

from what

[zealous glen]

whomsoever

[red flower]

the guy from breaking bad is in minecraft?

[zealous glen]

I think it’s like Dangling Ropes but Minecraft

[zealous glen]

It has a plot, choices, and death

[red flower]

i mean i know what story mode is i know my videogames

[sonic cedar]

oh ok

[red flower]

i meant that for victin

still dont know who jesse is

[zealous glen]

Me neither

[sonic cedar]

the guy on screen

[red flower]

he looks confused

[zealous glen]

But also I expected you’d know but I thought it would be funny to compare it to Danganronpa

Especially because I don’t know how to write Dangling Ropes

[red flower]

it's like Hundred Line

it has choices

[zealous glen]

Isn’t that from One Piece

[red flower]

100 lines > 1 piece

[sonic cedar]

that's the grand line

[zealous glen]

i mean i know what story mode grand line is i know my videogames One Piece videogames

[red flower]

i dont know one piece sadly

[real night]

how do you do sort of "while you have the joker" effects like juggler and drunkard

[red flower]

add_to_deck and remove_from_deck

[zealous glen]

Uhh Calliope Mori is in it

What do you mean “false”

[vapid sable]

i made a prototype of a mod but when i load in the game it just doesnt do anything..? i have the lovely thing .dll in my mod folder but is there anything else i have to do

[zealous glen]

https://youtu.be/eWNn24KHPRQ?si=FJKpY1GD0Fuxvo8W

[zealous glen]

Do you have a Mods button

[sonic cedar]

i refuse to acknowledge future island's existence

[vapid sable]

i dont thats the issue

[wintry solar]

goodbye numberator

[zealous glen]

Why

[zealous glen]

Does lovely work

[sonic cedar]

mori calliope

[vapid sable]

how do iiii check if it does work

[zealous glen]

Uhhh does a terminal pop up when you start the game

[vapid sable]

nothing pops up

[zealous glen]

I wonder if your antivirus deleted Lovely

[vapid sable]

hm

[zealous glen]

Or you put it in the wrong folder

[vapid sable]

it's supposed to be in the Mods folder right

[zealous glen]

Lovely, no

[vapid sable]

by lovely you mean the version.dll right

this guy

[normal crest]

that one is meant to go in the same folder as Balatro.exe

[zealous glen]

Yes

[hidden sable]

lovely adds itself in Mods too

[vapid sable]

oh god i misread this so bad

[hidden sable]

put smods in fr

[near bay]

how do i fix this. (it's a seal btw)

[hidden sable]

whats the issue

and whats the end goal

[red flower]

args doesn't even exist

[normal crest]

smods has a thing you can return to balance stuff

i don't remember what it was rn tho

[zealous glen]

balance

[hidden sable]

glink_nugget:balance()

[red flower]

return { balance = true }

[near bay]

im making a seal balance

[hidden sable]

yeah just return balance

[near bay]

ah alr

[static dagger]

How can I overwrite part of SMODS? I want to change part of smods/src/utils.lua with a patch using Lovely, but I'm not sure what the target should be set to

[vapid sable]

okay something popped up when i opened the game... now wheres the mods button supposed to be

[daring fern]

‎

[red flower]

target = '=[SMODS _ "src/utils.lua"]'

[hidden sable]

wouldnt target just be =[SMODS

or something idk

yeah

see iw as right im learning

[static dagger]

thank you!

[vapid sable]

i couldnt read if it risked my life

[near bay]

why is this the back of a card from the red deck?

[daring fern]

If you didn't give the seal an atlas or a pos it will just use the red deck sprite.

[near bay]

?

[vapid sable]

why doesnt balala recognise my mod :(

[normal crest]

did you define an SMODS.Atlas somewhere

[near bay]

No

it worked :D

sorry for my mistake

[formal parrot]

Is it in the right place ?

It should be in %appadata%balatro/mods

[vapid sable]

id assume so

[formal parrot]

Your mod needs at least a .json file and a .lua file

[sonic cedar]

is there a metadata file

[daring fern]

‎

[vapid sable]

there are both

[formal parrot]

Thats what we were trying to do today infact somethingcom515

[sonic cedar]

maybe with calculate contexts?

[formal parrot]

Then it should load

[vapid sable]

hm

[daring fern]

Yes, but that would retrigger all jokers that use that context.

[formal parrot]

Since you can’t use while to return

[vapid sable]

let me reopen balala

[sonic cedar]

ahhhh yeh thats true

[vapid sable]

no weird still doesnt show up

[near bay]

can i make a seal play a different sound when it appears on standard packs?

[vapid sable]

might there be something wrong with the meta...??

id think not i basically did fill in the gaps :p

[red flower]

you can't have comments in a json

[vapid sable]

oh

:-

[edgy reef]

Yea this is being displayed as javascript iirc

[zealous glen]

your avatar doesn’t have a nose so I assume that’s a mouth

[zealous glen]

Hello flowwey how are you

[normal crest]

retriggers are calculated before any scoring happens

so you'd have to predict the future

[formal parrot]

Wtf is all of this

[zealous glen]

What do you mean

[vapid sable]

do not ask me

i copied from one of the github pages

[normal crest]

why did you copy all of it

[vapid sable]

🥴

[daring fern]

I want a card to retrigger until it hits a probability check.

[normal crest]

right below that there is a "template for copying"

[daring fern]

Yes, but couldn't I fake a retrigger?

[red flower]

your own card or like a lucky card?

[daring fern]

Any card or joker or anything that uses the new SMODS probability functions.

[normal crest]

Idk what a fake retrigger would entail

[red flower]

oh then that's hard yeah

[vapid sable]

yeah great still doesnt work :[

imma leave thatalone come back later

[zealous glen]

Is the probability constant

[daring fern]

What do you mean?

[real night]

is this the right way to do it

                SMODS.create_card('Joker', rarity = 1)
            }```

i cant tell

[daring fern]

No.

[formal parrot]

Is it 1 default

You can define constant cariable

Variables I

[formal parrot]

Pretty sure its not

Since you can change it

[daring fern]

It shouldn't be changing.

[normal crest]

SMODS.add_card { set = 'Joker', rarity = 'Common' } to spawn a common joker regardless of space

[red flower]

just SMODS.add_card{ set = 'Joker', rarity = "Common"} and nothing else

[formal parrot]

Oops all 6s does that

[red flower]

oh damn im slow

[normal crest]

you're on phone

[zealous glen]

You can sample a geometric distribution

Either directly or by simulation

[red flower]

phone user 😞

[tired kestrel]

Somthing you there?

[normal crest]

Is there an easy way to score hands held in hand as if they were played

[tired kestrel]

I need your guidence

what do you mean for the define

[zealous glen]

You can same from any distribution starting from an uniform distribution

[daring fern]

replace_hand = "Three of a Kind"

[tired kestrel]

alright.

I think I have the idea now.

sorry if this is something frustrating but yeah.

[unkempt thicket]

How can i make an info quene of another joker?

[normal crest]

append G.P_CENTERS.j_prefix_key

[plush depot]

anyone know the weight of the jumbo and mega booster packs (not like actual weight like how often they appear)

[wintry solar]

so say it was a lucky card, you'd want it to give chips X times, where X is the amount of rolls it takes to pass the probability check?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[wintry solar]

I think you'd have to do some cursed af post trigger logic and manually running future triggers

[plush depot]

anyone knoiw

[normal crest]

Check in game.lua of the vanilla source

[plush depot]

what

[normal crest]

Look at the game's code in the game.lua file

[plush depot]

where

[normal crest]

Mods/lovely/dump/game.lua

Search for "buffoon" or something, they're all next each other

[hidden sable]

how can i change this text up here

for my mod

[plush depot]

found it jumbo is 1 and mega is 0.25

[faint yacht]

If using config_tab, kinda hardcoded. You may want to look for .extra_tabs to have different names for tabs.

[hidden sable]

i already have names for those

i wanted to call it "Other" since i have a tab for info

[faint yacht]

Gotta do it via .extra_tabs then.

[candid sleet]

i'm using a copy of vanillaremade's brainstorm but i wanted to include another action when it copies, i assume i need to add it in the bottom section where it does calculate function but i dont understand where or how i'm supposed to slot it in (i want to set money to $0 when the copy triggers, which i have code for)

[daring fern]

Put it in the if ret then

[candid sleet]

i dont really understand why it's unexpected symbol here cuz it displays as linking back to the start of the joker

[daring fern]

You're missing an end

[candid sleet]

oh right thanks

[river apex]

How can I get the winning hand ?
I saw this questions was asked before but not the answer
I know I can get the context.after or context.end_of round but this doesnt garanty that G.play.cards (or scoring_hand) is the winning hand ?

[hidden sable]

how can i do text formatting outside of joker cards

like if i wanted to format standard ui text

[hidden sable]

when hand is played, save hand, when blind is won, last saved hand is winning hand

[river apex]

Yeah I was wondering if there was an other way
Thanks !

[hidden sable]

@daring fern mr poly bridge do you know of this?

[daring fern]

I don't know UI

[hidden sable]

tried this

[normal crest]

who needs a user interface

[hidden sable]

sad

[normal crest]

cli balatro

[hidden sable]

cursed

[normal crest]

What's the context of this

I assume you just put it in an extra tab of your mod?

[hidden sable]

trying to formatt text in the config screen

[normal crest]

can you show the code

[zealous glen]

Are you creating nodes

[hidden sable]

its just this until about11

theres prolly a better way to do this

[zealous glen]

If you’re creating nodes, you just create the nodes that the commands would create for you

[normal crest]

you need to parse the string to make the text object I believe

[hidden sable]

is there a way to auto do it?

so i can spawn text that is basically a joker description

with text formatting

[zealous glen]

Maybe

[normal crest]

Honestly try SMODS.localize_box { about1 } etc

Just found out that's a function

[zealous glen]

Since Balatro does it automatically for Jokers

But idk

Usually I just do it manually

[hidden sable]

how does it work, does this spawn in a text object?

[normal crest]

Looks like it returns a text object

So try replacing your {n = G.UIT.T etc line with that

Actually wait

I think you might need to parse it before passing it to that function

[red flower]

you might not need to

[feral tree]

is there a way to get a joker to detect if there's another specific joker in hand?

[normal crest]

you definitely do

it uses what loc_parse_string returns

[red flower]

damn

[normal crest]

so it should look something like SMODS.localize_box(loc_parse_string("{C:red}hi{}"), { scale = 0.4 })

that seems to return the proper ui element

[red flower]

i should have known ive used it actually

[primal robin]

Me when I have no access for SMODS and needs to do it manually:

[normal crest]

if you can't copy from smods, copy from vanilla

[red flower]

try putting it under nodes directly instead of a table inside nodes

[hidden sable]

holy shit it worked

tiny af tho

[hard mica]

anyone know how to fix this ples

[primal robin]

I made this in wacky way. No Idea how, but it works

[normal crest]

yeah it looks like the scale you pass gets multiplied by another scale

[drowsy heath]

So I made a legendary joker in my mod and I couldn't get it in a soul from like 100 souls I opened is it never gunna appear in it or have I done something wrong

[normal crest]

Does it appear in collection

[hidden sable]

thats normal

[drowsy heath]

Yep

I used debug to get it and it works fine

Just not coming from the soul

[normal crest]

Did you start a new run before using the soul

[drowsy heath]

Which is weird

Yep

Using brainstorm to soul start over and over

[normal crest]

Can you send your joker definition

[drowsy heath]

Wait no nvm just realised I made it common by accident

[normal crest]

Lol

That'd do it

[drowsy heath]

I feel stupid now

Yep worked str8 away

[hidden sable]

this didnt work

is there a table.unpack?

[primal robin]

It's just unpack iirc

5.1 lua after all

[hidden sable]

why in the intro is it displaying here 😭

[normal crest]

again, do nodes = SMODS.localize_box etc etc

don't wrap it around {}

[hidden sable]

oh right

[river apex]

It looks like when I am using multiple context in a calculate(), it does not reach if i do not return anything
In my code I just want to store something

        if context.final_scoring_step then
            myVar = #context.full_hand
        end
        if context.final_scoring_step then
            print(myVar)
        end

What can I return in order for this to work ?
