not unpack

what is the goal here, in the code you sent you can just put all your code inside one if instead of making two separate ones

[normal crest]

what is textwall

how did you define it

[river apex]

I want to know which was the winning hand
I was trying to store the last hand to see if it was a high card, then I want to apply things to it, but I cannot find the winning hand currently

[normal crest]

here don't wrap SMODS.localize_box around {}

[hidden sable]

dont use 2 checks of the same thing in a context

[wintry solar]

I wonder how many times srock will say that tonight

[hidden sable]

i keep making the same mistake 😭

[river apex]

Ho you are right I did not see it

[hidden sable]

good thing i can just wrap this in a module when im done so i cant make it a mistake

[azure valley]

Dumb question, where are editions for played cards evaluated in SMOD?

[hidden sable]

why does it appear here

[brittle tide]

is there a way to double the cash you earn at the end of a round?

[hidden sable]

how do i change the default color

[ivory coral]

how come my custom context here doesnt work? ive got this hook for destroying a joker and -1 and 0 print but 1 doesnt and i dont know why

local _card_remove = Card.remove
function Card.remove(self)
    print('-1')
    if self.added_to_deck and self.ability.set == 'Joker' and not G.CONTROLLER.locks.selling_card then
        print('0')
        SMODS.calculate_context({
            osquo_ext = {
                destroy_joker = true,
                destroyed_joker = self
            }
        })
    end
    return _card_remove(self)
end

    calculate = function(self,card,context)
        if context.osquo_ext then
            print('1')
            if context.osquo_ext.destroy_joker then
                print('2')
                if context.osquo_ext.destroyed_joker == card then
                    print('3')

[hidden sable]

i know its weird but is it possible to move a joker over to the consumable hand

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hidden sable]

.................

.....................................

.........................................................................

how

mr poly bridge i hope you encounter

[daring fern]

G.jokers:remove_card(card)
G.consumeables:emplace(card)
``` Perhaps?

[hidden sable]

alright lets try

how can i get the current selected joker

[daring fern]

G.jokers.highlighted[1]

[valid leaf]

How do I change a joker effect and description if another specific joker is held?

[normal crest]

you can check if a specific joker is held by doing if next(SMODS.find_card('j_prefix_key'))

[hidden sable]

it worked

[normal crest]

you can change the description of a joker depending on that by returning { key = 'some localization key' } in loc_vars

[hidden sable]

is it possible to change the moved jokers negative to a consumable negative

[daring fern]

Yes, but it requires patching.

[hidden sable]

difficult patching?

[valid leaf]

I'll test that thank you

[hidden sable]

also ill have to patch for situations like this

i think the blueprint patch is the easiest rn

just check if hes in jokers or consumables

and do his behavior in that area instead

uhh

[daring fern]

You just change G.jokers to self.area

[hidden sable]

in that for loop?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[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

[hidden sable]

whats the position in patching to replace

is it at or replace

[red flower]

at

[hidden sable]

whats this mean again

[normal crest]

it will put your payload at the same indentation as the target line

[azure valley]

it will make your dump easier to read when you're debugging

ok, I have been up and down the SMOD source and Balatro's source, and I can't find where editions of the cards are used in calculating the card's effect. Can someone signpost me? I need to hook into it

[drowsy heath]

So what would I do if I wanted a card to have a 50/50 chance to do 2 things

1 makes ×mult go up and 1 makes ×mult go down

Its hurting my brain

[azure valley]

use pseudorandom_element, it's a vanilla balatro function

you'll want to provide a seed for reproducibility

[drowsy heath]

How do I use that

Which joker uses it so I can check the code

I can just base it off that

[azure valley]

https://github.com/Steamodded/examples/blob/d43316d97bc927f3de431dd84c0283d41e69761a/Mods/ExampleJokersMod/ModdedVanilla.lua#L284

There should also be bananas in there that use it

[drowsy heath]

Okok thank you

[ivory coral]

is there a way to get a localized name for an object (poker hand in my current case) from a mod
ive tried using localize{} but that doesnt seem to work for mods that define their loc_txt in the poker hand directly, is there a way to get it from there?

[normal crest]

the stuff in loc_txt is put into the localization table tho

so you should be able to get it with localize

for a hand it should be localize('key', 'poker_hands')

[drowsy heath]

Wait so how do I get that to produce the thing I want tho

[ivory coral]

tried that though but it doesnt return anything
local handname = localize{type = 'poker_hands', key = G.GAME.current_round.osquo_ext_throwawayline_hand} is nil

[drowsy heath]

That is just picking a random consumable I want it to pick either option 1 or 2 of actions on thr joker either positive × or negative ×

[normal crest]

cus that's not how you do it

[ivory coral]

oh

[normal crest]

this is how

[dire marlin]

can someone tell me how to make calculate context for this one?

[ivory coral]

i thought theyd be the same

[normal crest]

pseudorandom("some string seed", 1, 2) will generate a random number, either 1 or 2

[normal crest]

it'd make sense yeah, but

[drowsy heath]

And then I just give 1 an action and 2 an action

[ivory coral]

localize{G.GAME.current_round.osquo_ext_throwawayline_hand, 'poker_hands'} still returns nil
i have a fallback that just returns the key instead so i know the key is correct

[normal crest]

not {}, use ()

[ivory coral]

oooh

mb

[azure valley]

context.joker_main is probably the best time for that.

[hidden sable]

isnt working

[ivory coral]

aaaah that did it thanks lad

[drowsy heath]

How do I give define action 1 and 3 tho

1 and 2*

[normal crest]

if pseudorandom("stuff", 1, 2) == 1 then
  -- stuff for 1
else
  -- stuff for 2
end

[daring fern]

Why do the enhancements trigger multiple times?

[hidden sable]

how can i get the highlight of any nonowned card

like a card from a tarot pack or spectral pack

or just any card in shop

[daring fern]

G.pack_cards.highlighted[1]

[daring fern]

G.shop_jokers.highlighted[1]

[drowsy heath]

Im seeing red after doing that

On 'then' and 'else'

[normal crest]

then you put it in the wrong place

send a screenshot of it

[drowsy heath]

I dont have discord on the device but ill take a photo

Idk i did the same thing he said

[normal crest]

yes you did put it in the wrong place, you removed the function entirely

[drowsy heath]

Wait what

[normal crest]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
  -- stuff here
end

[umbral zodiac]

if i make an atlas larger than 71x95 and use it for a consumable does it get downscaled to normal size or is it just large

[dire marlin]

can u make the example of the code?

[drowsy heath]

Oh yeah forgot to add that

[daring fern]

It will be normal size but it will not be downscaled.

[umbral zodiac]

those sound contradictory

will it be larger than a 71x95 card or not

[hidden sable]

larger

wrong reply

mb

[hidden sable]

larger

[daring fern]

The card will not change size but the sprite will be the size you told it to be.

[hidden sable]

you will have to downscale manually

[umbral zodiac]

oh good

i dont want to downscale them i want them to be larger than normal cards intentionally

[hidden sable]

like wee joker

[hidden sable]

oh you can just upscale then

look at how wee joker does it

[normal crest]

SMODS has a feature for this

[umbral zodiac]

well the sprites are already larger than 71x95

[ivory coral]

bump
ive found out my context does trigger when i try to destroy it with debugplus but not if it gets destroyed by dagger or madness, still no idea why

[umbral zodiac]

awesome

[drowsy heath]

Now the function is red

[azure valley]

if context.joker_main and #G.jokers.cards >= G.jokers.config.card_limit then
    return { Xchips_mod = 2 }
end

[ivory coral]

but it does work with ankh
even though there shouldnt be a difference

[normal crest]

you're missing an end right before the closing }

[rapid stag]

how do i get to a consumable's name via G.P_CENTERS.c_<my consumable key>?

[normal crest]

once you've done that I recommend ctrl + shift + i to let vscode format your code

[normal crest]

localize { type = 'name_text', set = 'Tarot', key = 'c_death' } for example

[drowsy heath]

Okay that made things worse

Nevermind fixed it

[mild fractal]

how would i check for an unscored card?

[hidden sable]

how can i tell which is highlighted

[formal parrot]

Hmmmm

[hidden sable]

i might be a lil stupid chat

[formal parrot]

What do you want to do exactly

[azure valley]

everything in that array is highlighted

[daring fern]

context.cardarea == "unscored"

[formal parrot]

You are so smart

You get a cookie 🍪

[mild fractal]

thank you !!

i was going crazy trying to find anything similar in vanilla lmao

[drowsy heath]

Okay well it crashes when it wants to be used

[azure valley]

Can someone explain to me what an 'individual' context is supposed to me?

[hidden sable]

individual card scored

[daring fern]

It means when playing cards are scoring.

[azure valley]

ok, so this is stuff that comes from the cards themselves

like chips, edition effects, red seal?

gold seal?

[daring fern]

No.

[azure valley]

ok, then what is being referenced here?

nothing used by vanilla? just hooks for mods?

[hidden sable]

yes

[daring fern]

That is not chips, editions or a red seal.

[hidden sable]

its close enough

you could still check for it

[formal parrot]

Doesn’t context.individual references to every card and joker individually but you’ll need to limit it by cardarea =G.play so its only played cards ?

[hidden sable]

oh yeah

[daring fern]

No, it's only every playing card.

[drowsy heath]

I need help with this someone tell me what's wrong here

[formal parrot]

So no jokers

[dire marlin]

i've tried this one and it crashed my game

[formal parrot]

Does that include full deck ?

[drowsy heath]

Causes crashs coz extra isn't defined

[daring fern]

Yes, because it's just xchips

[azure valley]

is it? my b

[dire marlin]

should i use xchips_mod?

[daring fern]

No, it's xchips

[azure valley]

so individual is a context that is used by other cards looking at the card that is being scored?

[drowsy heath]

Someone help idk what I'm doing wrongggg

[hidden sable]

bruh what is your config doing 😭

[drowsy heath]

IDK IM LOST

Someone told me to do this

[azure valley]

why is it commented out?

[hidden sable]

dont define your configs in an if

[drowsy heath]

Idk

[hidden sable]

that wont work

[drowsy heath]

Why not

[hidden sable]

when do you want the card to randomize its mult

[drowsy heath]

When its triggered

[daring fern]

It's for cards that activate on playing cards.

[hidden sable]

then that needs to be put in calculate

[azure valley]

like walkie talkie?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[drowsy heath]

How and where

[azure valley]

you need to put the if statement into calculate

[dire marlin]

what should i do?

[azure valley]

Actually I just checked Xchips_mod should also work

[daring fern]

xchips = 2

[azure valley]

    if (key == 'x_chips' or key == 'xchips' or key == 'Xchip_mod') and amount ~= 1 then

oh

Xchip_mod

[drowsy heath]

My head hurts

[hidden sable]

just some of the things ive noticed

[dire marlin]

my game still crashed when i scored a hand

[hidden sable]

here try this

above return but your pseudorandom stuff

[faint yacht]

#G.jokers.cards >=

[hidden sable]

change the config to a variable

set it to either -50 or 50

based on the random

[azure valley]

Would help a lot if you showed the error?

[hidden sable]

then return xmult = that variable

[formal parrot]

Si

[drowsy heath]

I made some changes anyway and after moving it i got no errors just hoping no crash

[hidden sable]

dont rely on your text editor to tell you errors, rely on the actual game to tell you ewrrors

[drowsy heath]

Yeah extra still is nil

[hidden sable]

because you cant define it like that

copy and pase your code here

ill show you what i mean

[drowsy heath]

Let me get discord on my laptop then

Won't take long

[hidden sable]

k

[daring fern]

The problem seems to be something here:

[drowsy heath]

Also I did change 1 or 3 things I I feel I made it worse

[hidden sable]

the top top part of the rror

that part is usually useless

[drowsy heath]

How do I make it send as code and not as text

[dire marlin]

ohh wait

[hidden sable]

wrap it in ```

the key to the left of the 1 key

[drowsy heath]

SMODS.Joker{
    key = "joker6",
    loc_vars = {
        name = 'gambling fever',
        text = {
            'by the power of the gods',
            'you have 50/50 chance to gain',
            '{X:mult,c:white}X#1#{}mult or {X:mult,c:white}X#2#{}mult'
        }
    },
    atlas = "joker",
    pos = {
        x = 4,
        y = 0,
    },
    rarity = 4,
    cost = 20,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            Calculate = pseudorandom("12345",1,2) if 1 then
    config = {extra = { Xmult = 50 } }
    else
    config = {extra = { Xmult = -50 } } 
    end
    end
            
            return {
                card.ability.extra.Xmult,
           
            }
    end
    ```

[hidden sable]

good

[hidden sable]

show us line 177

oh wait

[daring fern]

Yes, it's G.jokers.cards not G.joker_cards

[hidden sable]

its the joker_cards error

they told you to fix that already lol

[dire marlin]

if context.joker_main and #G.joker_cards >= G.jokers.config.card_limit then

[drowsy heath]

its gunna be painful everything thats wrong with mine

[normal crest]

G.joker.cards, not joker_cards

[vague crest]

if i wanted to have a calculation that does probability independently from oops all sixes, how would i go about that

specifically like, 1 in 2 chance to do this and else it does something else kinda thing

[dire marlin]

i've changed it but still the err tell the same thing

[daring fern]

Use 1 instead of G.GAME.probabilities.normal

[normal crest]

Oh I typed joker instead of jokers

[vague crest]

ohhh its that simple awesome

[normal crest]

my bad

[daring fern]

It's G.jokers.cards not G.joker.cards

[dire marlin]

oh yeah my bad

it worked

thank you so much

[dire marlin]

what is the G.jokers.cards do?

[drowsy heath]

is it rlly that bad that its taking this long to get all the problems

[daring fern]

It's the jokers that you currently have.

[red flower]

do u like my high card chat

[drowsy heath]

ewwwww how u do that

[normal crest]

High cards

[red flower]

im making a new smods pr :3

[hidden sable]

@drowsy heath ```
SMODS.Joker{
key = "joker6",
loc_vars = {
name = 'gambling fever',
text = {
'by the power of the gods',
'you have 50/50 chance to gain',
'{X:mult,c:white}X#1#{}mult or {X:mult,c:white}X#2#{}mult'
}
},
atlas = "joker",
pos = {
x = 4,
y = 0,
},
rarity = 4,
cost = 20,
blueprint_compat = true,
calculate = function (self, card, context)
local mult = nil
if context.joker_main then
if pseudorandom("gamble_odds") < (1 / 2) then
mult = 50
else
mult = -50
end
return {
xmult = mult

        }
    end
end

}```

that should work

[drowsy heath]

thank you sm

[hidden sable]

i hope at least

[drowsy heath]

ima run it now and see

[hidden sable]

study it and figure out what you did wrong so you can learn too

[dire marlin]

ah okay thank u again

[daring fern]

The only thing I have here is a mod with a joker that returns all enhancements and a patch to use my function instead of card:set_ability

[drowsy heath]

yeah that worked i js dk why the text wont show up

[hidden sable]

what text

stuff like this?

[daring fern]

It works without the patch for some reason.

[drowsy heath]

            'by the power of the gods',
            'you have 50/50 chance to gain',
            '{X:mult,c:white}X#1#{}mult or {X:mult,c:white}X#2#{}mult'
        } ```

[hidden sable]

oh the cards description?

oh wait to you mean the

bottom aprt

where it tells you what you can or cant get

[drowsy heath]

yeah

[dire marlin]

can u help me with this one?

[hidden sable]

right here add a line that defines your config as
config = { extra = { highmult = 50, lowmult = -50 } }

[daring fern]

I tried this, and I couldn't figure it out either, so unfortunately, no.

[drowsy heath]

still blank

[dire marlin]

oh okay, no problem

[hidden sable]

and below that line add a loc_var that shows text like so

  return { vars = { card.ability.extra.highmult, card.ability.extra.lowmult } }
end,```

also make sure you add a comma after the config line

[drowsy heath]

well its still blank.....

[hidden sable]

show code

lemme make sure you pasted everything in right

[drowsy heath]

    key = "joker6",
    loc_vars = {
        name = 'gambling fever',
        text = {
            'by the power of the gods',
            'you have 50/50 chance to gain',
            '{X:mult,c:white}X#1#{}mult or {X:mult,c:white}X#2#{}mult'
        }
    },
    config = { extra = { highmult = 50, lowmult = -50 } },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
  return { vars = { card.ability.extra.highmult, card.ability.extra.lowmult } }
end, ```

[hidden sable]

weird...

uhhh

did you make sure to save and reload?

[floral spindle]

is there something like SMODS.has_enhancement for editions on jokers

[hidden sable]

yeah

[floral spindle]

what is it

[drowsy heath]

yeah

im getting a yellow error in the software

[hidden sable]

what does it say, maybe its a clue

[drowsy heath]

duplicate index

[daring fern]

card.edition and card.edition.key == "e_modprefix_key"

[hidden sable]

whats parts is it highlighting specifically

[drowsy heath]

the loc_vars for your added code and my loc_vars for the text

[hidden sable]

OH

I SEE IT

the loc_vars with the text needs to be loc_txt

not loc_vars

missed that

[drowsy heath]

ima run it then

[hidden sable]

this SHOULD work

on my MAMA

[umbral zodiac]

ok does anyone know why display size and pixel size are just doing nothing
ive tried this with multiple different numbers and its made no change

[drowsy heath]

welp that went downhill

[hidden sable]

welp my mamas dead, lets see what is line 18- wait thats not your mod

[drowsy heath]

huh

[hidden sable]

i said on my mama

it broke so

no more mama 😭

[drowsy heath]

oh but i mean abt line 18

[hidden sable]

at the top

it says line 182

but

thats not ur mod

thats smods

so

something messed up internally

[drowsy heath]

oh fgs

[umbral zodiac]

nvm it uses h and w not x and y

[hidden sable]

send your whole code again ima do another scan

just in case we are doing something wrong

[drowsy heath]

i highlighted it and it said "trailing space"

is that the problem

[hidden sable]

where is it highlighted

line 154?

[drowsy heath]

when i hilighted the whole thing to copy it

no specific place shows it

[vast bough]

beautiful art

[hidden sable]

what is on line 154

[umbral zodiac]

@mossy minnow

[drowsy heath]

loc_txt

[mossy minnow]

yippee

[hidden sable]

it is loc_txt = { right

[drowsy heath]

loc_txt = function

[hidden sable]

no do loc_txt = {

not function

whyd bro switch to a function lol

[drowsy heath]

i didnt it was that when u had loc_vars

[floral spindle]

if G.jokers.cards[i].edition and card.edition.key == "e_negative" then joker_count = joker_count + 1

this code no work

[hidden sable]

THIS needs to be loc_txt not the other one

wrong one

[drowsy heath]

oh

[hidden sable]

sorry for the confusion

make sure loc_vars is a function and loc_txt is a table {

[daring fern]

Show full code.

[drowsy heath]

it all works now

[floral spindle]

if context.joker_main then local joker_count = 0 for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do if G.jokers.cards[i].edition and card.edition.key == "e_negative" then joker_count = joker_count + 1 end end return { xmult = card.ability.xmult * joker_count } end

[hidden sable]

nice

[hidden sable]

WHAT IS THIS HIGHLIGHTING 😭

[floral spindle]

idk

[drowsy heath]

how do i add small text to it so i can credit you for the code

[daring fern]

G.jokers.cards[i].edition.key not card.edition.key

[hidden sable]

wrap it in ```

[hidden sable]

nah no need to credit

[long sun]

i'm getting this error:

[daring fern]

Code?

[long sun]

around here:

[drowsy heath]

i gotta its mostly your script i cant say its mine

[hidden sable]

its your script except i just rearranged stuff around

[long sun]

with reference to:

[daring fern]

I think you have to write it manually because it hasn't been loaded yet.

[long sun]

mm, unfortunate

Card Sleeves is able to do that, i'm assuming because it's using the vanilla decks

[hidden sable]

id rather be credited for something really big like this config ui lol, your small joker thing is fine to ahve as your own, since after all it was YOUR idea

[long sun]

so i'll change that, cheers

[drowsy heath]

ig but if you help again ill make a card based on your help "coders kindness" "+15 chips for every krada card you have "

[red flower]

looks great btw

[hidden sable]

lol

[hidden sable]

first ui btw

[ivory coral]

ive made a patch to allow certain cards to ignore getting_sliced (allowing a joker to have an effect when it itself is destroyed)
problem now is that it triggers that effect when its destroyed by any means, including with debugplus and even when attempting to exit to the main menu (the latter of which causing a crash since the effect is to create a duplicate of itself)
is there a check i can do to prevent that while still letting it bypass getting_sliced

[drowsy heath]

it not a bad idea tbf

[hidden sable]

only had 2 headaches

[tiny hemlock]

guys i need help wiith one joker lol

[daring fern]

return false not return 0

[tiny hemlock]

ok ill try (im making a music joke r)

[tepid crow]

Yeah you can't refer to other items in the same table. CardSleeves can only do it because it's referencing vanilla localizations which are loaded before any modded localizations

(though technically localization files are lua code and you could do some janky self-referencing stuff)

[drowsy heath]

okay so just an idea but a joker that works as a bank where you store your money in it and gain better interest than you would from a round ending

[long sun]

hmm, this doesn't seem to be working properly

[median veldt]

i have no idea where to ask about this LMFAO so I'll ask it here
I'm trying to port balatro to wiiu and it's freezing on LOADING: localization
what do y;all think could be the issue lmao

[long sun]

the "yay!" is being printed

[daring fern]

You need to return {key = key}

[long sun]

ah gotcha ^^;

[drowsy heath]

like the most goated econ joker ever

plus nice defence for wrath

[hushed field]

It's against the rules to discuss non-pc modding, I'm sorry to say

[median veldt]

I mean technically I'm not exactly modding the game
...wait yes I am nevermind

alright then I shall figure it out myself

[red flower]

even then it's against the rules to talk about porting too

[drowsy heath]

so erm the bank joker idea gud or nah

[modern kindle]

hi ice

[long sun]

mm, why's this happening? same code as before but with the issue before fixed

[hidden sable]

i could prolly think about this myself but im overstimulated rn and need some nudges, i wanna make this consumable able to "steal" items from shops or packs and put them in the players inventory (jokers, consumables, or deck)

[daring fern]

Stealing a deck from the shop?

[hidden sable]

the deck as an inventory

like a playing card pops up in shop or pack

steal that and put in deck

[long sun]

oh i know what i did, nvm ^^;

[hidden sable]

also i want stealing an item from a pack to not trigger the pack to close as the player hasnt taken or used a card for themselves, but i think this behavior can be made by simply not checking for it

[daring fern]

G.shop_jokers.highlighted[1] or G.shop_vouchers.highlighted[1] or G.shop_booster.highlighted[1] and you would do the thing I showed you before along with card:add_to_deck()

Along with the areas you already have.

[hidden sable]

the emplace stuff?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hidden sable]

having trouble searching for the message

what exactly does emplace do

is it like an add to area?

for consumables and jokers

[daring fern]

#💻・modding-dev message

[hidden sable]

so remove_card is removing it from that category/area and emplace is putting it in that area

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hidden sable]

so i would remove_card from G.shop?

or wait no

[drowsy heath]

for the life of me i cant find any help on how to add custom decks to my mod

[hidden sable]

its all different stuff

so it would be

actually wait shop_jokers

cant consumables show there too

ill have to account for that wont i

[daring fern]

No.

[hidden sable]

i havent added one to mine but you can try chekcing wiki

[daring fern]

You would do card.area:remove_card(card)

[hidden sable]

its referred as SMODS.Back

[formal quest]

What color is this text?

[sleek cliff]

day old bump?

[hidden sable]

attention

[drowsy heath]

none of these help me add a joker to hand for the deck asif it was a challange but i just want it to be a standard deck

or is that not possible

[manic rune]

what do you mean by this 🤔

[daring fern]

config = {jokers = {"j_modprefix_key"}}

[drowsy heath]

and i just input the key of the joker i wish to use yeah ?

[errant fulcrum]

So guys I have this code

for i, v in ipairs(vanilla_jokers) do
    SMODS.Joker:take_ownership(v, {in_pool = function(self,args) return false end}, true)
end```
The only jokers left are my modded jokers but the base joker still shows up. Is there a way to remedy this?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[sleek cliff]

So, I'm trying to get the tarot to target a table/set of jokers (currently 7 jokers) and replace them with a random joker of the same table/set

[manic rune]

joker by default is the joker the game turns to when theres no other valid common joker to spawn

which, should ignore whether its in pool or not

[manic rune]

i have no idea how thats related to localize

[errant fulcrum]

If I take ownership and modify it that'd solve the probelm right? Or would it spawn another base joker

[sleek cliff]

oh,

[drowsy heath]

my deck still wont show up

[hidden sable]

did you aupply atlas and key

[drowsy heath]

oh wait nvm i feel stupid now

[manic rune]

its not in j_joker code, if im not wrong

[daring fern]

No.

[drowsy heath]

its 2am for me i cant blame myself

[manic rune]

so you want to patch somewhere

[floral spindle]

what resolution are the blind tokens?

[sleek cliff]

I was trying to do a wheel of fortune type tarot

[daring fern]

34x34 per frame?

[hidden sable]

my balala looks a lil funny

[ivory coral]

changed my approach to just hooking Card:remove but im still stuck at the game crashing when i try to go to the menu since it cant properly destroy the joker
any way to just check whether im currently exiting a run? or some other out-of-run condition so the game can remove it without crashing?

[manic rune]

then you want to use pseudorandom for the probability and pseudorandom_element for getting a random joker part

[drowsy heath]

i feel dumb where do i put the atlas in the deck code and what not

[manic rune]

another roblox mod has hit the tower

[drowsy heath]

also i should note i only started learning lua like 24 hours ag o

i can do basic jokers like x mult and + mult and art and all that

[hidden sable]

this one is peak wdmy

[daring fern]

What is the goal?

[drowsy heath]

just couple bits i get lost

[hidden sable]

how can i check if selection is a joker palying card or consumable

[ivory coral]

im trying to make a joker that duplicates itself when its destroyed
problem: cards are often given getting_sliced when getting destroyed which stops them from calculating
i can bypass that but that causes problem 2: the game crashes whenever i try to exit the run since the game physically cannot remove the joker because it keeps duplicating

[daring fern]

if selection.ability.set == "Joker", if selection.playing_card, if selection.ability.consumeable

[manic rune]

the fact that its selection.playing_card and not selection.ability.playing_card.....

[daring fern]

Couldn't you get away with hooking Card:start_dissolve() instead?

[ivory coral]

thats a good shout ill try that

[sleek cliff]

If I want to select a joker, should I go SMODS.Joker:get_joker? or something like that?

[hidden sable]

how do i check if the player is in the shop

[floral spindle]

is there an easier way to make boss blind tokens

I don't want to recreate the shine effect manually

[hidden sable]

no

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hidden sable]

there is a template overlay i know

lemme go grab it

[iron burrow]

I see references of "back" all over the source code and in this community. Could someone help me understand what objects "back" and "center" are?

[red flower]

that doesn't exist, what are you trying to do?

[red flower]

#💻・modding-dev message

[hidden sable]

🙏

[hidden sable]

back is a deck, center is an "empty" class used for making new object types ingame

[formal parrot]

End_of_round ?

[hidden sable]

like G.blind.in_blind but for shop

[sleek cliff]

A type of wheel of fortune esque selection system that destroys a specific set of cards and replaces it with another specific card from that set

[formal parrot]

G.shop.in_shop this is a joke

[iron burrow]

ohhhhhh, thank you so much

[hidden sable]

real?

[formal parrot]

No

[hidden sable]

fake?

[formal parrot]

Yes

[hidden sable]

so its rela

[red flower]

you might want G.P_CENTER_POOLS.Joker or G.P_CENTER_POOLS.objecttypekey

[formal parrot]

Its laer

[faint yacht]

Just check for G.shop?

[daring fern]

G.STATE == G.STATES.SHOP?

[sleek cliff]

kinda like this, but add the set after?

[red flower]

i don't understand what you mean

[hidden sable]

that wroeke

guys whats the optimal play here

[formal parrot]

Full house

[iron burrow]

credit card in the booster pack

[sleek cliff]

(using vremade as basis) in the parenthesis do I put like set = 'JMBOWHO_Doctors'

[red flower]

that's like a very specific function just for editions i wouldnt use that as basis for anything

[sleek cliff]

ah

[formal parrot]

😭😭

The pfp😭

[hidden sable]

guys should i buy or sell my owned joker

[formal parrot]

Buy and crash the game

[chrome widget]

Yeah buy it again

[red flower]

if you want a random joker from the pool you can do pseudorandom_element(G.P_CENTER_POOLS.JMBOWHO_Doctors, "seed") or something like that

[hidden sable]

ok i bought it

[formal parrot]

Owww

What are you even trying to do

[umbral zodiac]

is there a list of centers for editions and enhancements

[sleek cliff]

so replace the local with that?

[umbral zodiac]

i cant find it because im Silly in the brain

[drowsy heath]

okay i tried everything and i cant get my custom deck to work

[daring fern]

Yes.

[drowsy heath]

idk what im doingggg wronggggggg

[formal parrot]

Read the wiki

[drowsy heath]

i did and it didnt help

i also checked the example thing

that didnt help either

[sleek cliff]

ok, would this be the correct code to do all that?

[merry raven]

Is there a way to add this marker to a button

[umbral zodiac]

i found it without your help

[hidden sable]

this funny little error made me think of an even better effect for my card

[formal parrot]

Oh no

[red flower]

oh if you're just using add_card you don't need the pseudorandom_element thing at all

[formal parrot]

When bugs turn into features

[sleek cliff]

oh

[sleek cliff]

should it be like this then?

[red flower]

indentation makes it a bit hard to read but it looks ok to me

[sleek cliff]

cool

[red flower]

wait no

[sleek cliff]

oh

[red flower]

the card you're destroying is the consumable

you probably want to destroy a joker or something

[sleek cliff]

is it the card.T.r part?

[red flower]

you're also juicing up the card after it's destroyer

[umbral zodiac]

LMAO

[red flower]

all the parts where you use card it's the consumable

[umbral zodiac]

how do you add a card to the deck properly; simply emplacing it isnt making it shown in the deckview, nor is it increasing the amount of cards in deck

[sleek cliff]

what should I change them to then? and is that all the cards?

[daring fern]

table.insert(G.playing_cards, card)

[red flower]

check how SMODS.add_card does it

[red flower]

all the cards refer to the consumable yes
idk what you want to destroy, a random joker? a selected one?

[umbral zodiac]

pretty wrong

[daring fern]

You still need to emplace it.

[sleek cliff]

random joker of this set

[red flower]

that's a bit more complicated

[umbral zodiac]

oagh,

[sleek cliff]

oh boy.

[red flower]

you need to iterate through G.jokers.cards and check if the card.pools has the objecttype

and then do a pseudorandom_element on that

and also do that in can_use

[sleek cliff]

oki

[drowsy heath]

how does one make an xchips card work

i have no idea tried to base it on xmult but ofc that doesnt work

[daring fern]

Do return {xchips = number}

[merry raven]

Man what the hell

[drowsy heath]

like under calculate

[merry raven]

Straight up looking like those paint chips at paint shops

[sleek cliff]

so I do need to do local then?

[rapid stag]

yummy

[drowsy heath]

Where do I put that tho

[daring fern]

In calculate

[drowsy heath]

Okay so its still not triggering it

[daring fern]

Code?

[drowsy heath]

    key = "joker7",
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'puntoo',
        text = {
            'i dont know what this',
            'even is but have {X:chips,c:white}X#1# {} chips'
        }
    },
    atlas = "joker",
    pos = {
        x = 5,
        y = 0,
    },
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 10,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    config = { extra = { Xchips = 5 } },
    loc_vars = function (self, info_queue, card)
        return {vars = { card.ability.extra.Xchips}}
    end,
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            return{
                Xchips = 5
            }
            
        end
        
    end
}```

idk what ive done but this is what i ended up with

[rapid stag]

x_chips

[drowsy heath]

oh

for all of them

?

[rapid stag]

just from your calculate

[hidden sable]

my new idea for the card is use the card to bring a shop item into consumables where you can "save" the card to buy it later, dunno if this is possible

[drowsy heath]

Still no trigger

[rapid stag]

what did you change

[drowsy heath]

The Xchips in calculate to X_chips

[rapid stag]

case sensitive

[drowsy heath]

Thank you it works now

[rapid stag]

it only takes strictly xchips or x_chips
nothing else

there's Xchip_mod but that does without message

[drowsy heath]

But the rest of them dont matter? They are Xchips and the card works

[rapid stag]

it's not that it won't matter, it's that nothing will happen
see this line in steamodded that implements xchips
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/blob/005335db2aa7566ff7e069bc3cae2323905fe6f3/src/utils.lua#L1283

it looks specifically for any of those three strings

[drowsy heath]

Ahhh

Fair enough then

[hidden sable]

prolly not possible

[daring fern]

It is.

[rapid stag]

i've seen a mod do something like that

[unkempt thicket]

That sounds fairly possible

[merry raven]

You can practically make anything, it's just the matter of how hard it is

Saw some guy put a playable Super Mario Bros game into a Joker sometime ago

[hidden sable]

without extensive patches

[sleek cliff]

yeah, wait until you see Yahi mod

yahi and cryptid

crazy things

[merry raven]

Cryptid made a Joker where it gives bonuses based on the number of members on their discord server didn't they

[unkempt thicket]

I don't think they update that

[merry raven]

Ogh I thought it was a live count

[unkempt thicket]

I made multi-rank cards (joker-effect wise) a bit ago

[sleek cliff]

idk, but yahi made a joker based on the game resolution, lower the res, the more xmult

[crisp coral]

it's supposed to be live (i don't think it's properly maintained) and manually updated as fallback

[cerulean rose]

there is an http module thats supposed to live update it

[crisp coral]

this is extremely tame, you just never see it because it's funny but not practical

[sleek cliff]

yeagh,

[sleek cliff]

I'm seeing how you're wording this, but I am not wrapping my head around how to do this im sorry

[unkempt thicket]

How many jokers does cryptid add?

[sleek cliff]

too many.

[unkempt thicket]

The wiki says 203, aij just hit 200

[drowsy heath]

ratmilk since its your code i used on gambling joker could you help me figure out how to reuse it to have 3 different outcomes 1 being xmult 1 being xchips and 1 being dollars

[viral ember]

Is there an easy way to get all of my modded jokers?

trying to make a booster pack with all of them

[daring fern]

Yes.

[viral ember]

how?

[sleek cliff]

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

[daring fern]

local jokers = {}
for k, v in pairs(G.P_CENTERS) do
    if v.set == "Joker" and v.mod and v.mod.id == "yourmodid" then
        table.insert(jokers, v.key)
    end
end

[viral ember]

oh sick

thanks

🙏

[unkempt thicket]

Is there a way to not load a lovely file based on a conditional?

[drowsy heath]

well can someone help i have some code that grants either 25x or -25x mult and i want to reuse it to give 10x mult or 10x chips or 10 dollars

is that like posible

[hidden sable]

global if statement

[drowsy heath]

RATMILK HEP

heelp

idrk how to use ur code for my other gambling joker

[daring fern]

No.

[daring fern]

What is the goal?

[drowsy heath]

this

since that one is conditional to only xmult idk how to change it to all 3

[daring fern]

local chance = pseudorandom("seed", 1, 3)
if chance == 1 then
    return {xmult = 10}
elseif chance == 2 then
    return {xchips = 10}
else
    return {dollars = 10}
end

[iron burrow]

Does G.jokers.config.card_limit store the player's current number of joker slots? And does it consider negatives? I'm trying to get # of slots available but unsure where this is represented

[daring fern]

Yes.

[red flower]

it's a bit hard yeah sadly im not on my pc to write it down

[sleek cliff]

I'll probably wait until you're able to and work on another card

cause my stank brain isn't a prolific coder

[drowsy heath]

in game the chips and mult is coming as nil

and idk how to fix it when i dont know how exactly the code works

hello ?

[iron burrow]

So the state G.GAME.max_jokers threw me off. That's the current number of jokers the player has? Seems like a strange naming convention

[red flower]

#G.jokers.cards

that's the number of jokers

[drowsy heath]

okay erm so why is the values on my joker saying nil but still working

[red flower]

your loc_vars is wrong?

[drowsy heath]

oh i dont have that i only have loc_txt thats why

[umbral zodiac]

is there a function i can hook that runs whenever a consumable is used

[drowsy heath]

i have been sat here so confused

mb

[daring fern]

Yes.

[umbral zodiac]

....that is?

[red flower]

Card:use_consumeable
or something like that

[umbral zodiac]

you need to start actually saying what the answer is when someone asks a yes/no question thats obviously implying theyre asking for the answer to it as well

[umbral zodiac]

thank you

[hidden sable]

isn't there uhh

calculate-context

[umbral zodiac]

i'm not adding it inside of a joker or consumable

[hidden sable]

no like the hook

[umbral zodiac]

its a permanent effect thats applied by a consumable and then the consumable is gone

[red flower]

you can hook calculate_context and use the using consumable context yes

[hidden sable]

that's a function you can hook to

[umbral zodiac]

ohh

true

[hidden sable]

a real man never speaks ill of mr poly bridge

[red flower]

oh that's what i wanted to work on today but i forgot
a calculate function for mods

[umbral zodiac]

good thing i am a woman and also dont care

[hidden sable]

it was a joke chill

[umbral zodiac]

it is a little annoying when i ask for something but i phrase it slightly differently than is 100% clear so all i get is a "Yes."

[hidden sable]

then you ask how and they react 🤷‍♂️

[umbral zodiac]

[hidden sable]

i would prefer the much more considerate term,

[drowsy heath]

    key = "joker8",
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'clueless',
        text = {
            'i dont know if you should get',
            '{X:mult,c:white}X#1# {10} mult',
            '{Xchips,c:white}X#1# {10} chips',
            'or +10 dollars'
        }
    },
    config = { extra = { xmult = 10, xchips = 10, } },
    loc_vars = function (self, info_queue, card)
  return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xmult, card.ability.extra.x_chips } }
end,
    atlas = "joker",
    pos = {
        x = 7 ,
        y = 0
    },
    cost = 20,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    rarity = 4,
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        local chance = pseudorandom("94738", 1, 3)
        if context.joker_main then
if chance == 1 then
    return {xmult = 10 }
elseif chance == 2 then
    return {x_chips = 10 }
else
    return {dollars = 10 }
end
end
end
}``` can someone explain why this is causing my game to crash when i hover over th joker

[hidden sable]

hovering crash means it's an issue with loc_vars

[formal quest]

Can someone link the art resources thread? Discord sucks at searching for threads.

[tardy raven]

this has likely been asked at least a 100 times by now but is it easy to get into balatro modding if you don't have much experience with Lua or with Love2d?

[drowsy heath]

ive been doing it for 24 hours from scratch

so yes

[red flower]

depends on what you want to do and how easy you learn new concepts

i recommend reading the pinned thread on #⚙・modding-general

[tardy raven]

ive coded before in a different engine but using a different language (c)

and it was very basic shit

so im not totally raw meat coding-wise but it's definitely a lot to take in at once

[red flower]

lua is easy if you know another language, but it has its quirks

[hidden sable]

line 226

[tardy raven]

atm im in the process of understanding Love2d but it is definitely very daunting

[drowsy heath]

thats the loc_vars

wait no

its the return

[tardy raven]

atm planning on doing a large-scale mod for a friendgroup with a Lot of mechanics

so definitely a larger scale than im used to

[red flower]

you mostly dont need to know love2d for balatro modding

[hidden sable]

found it

[drowsy heath]

i changed that i noticed it too

still same error

[tardy raven]

would it be better to learn for navigation? or do you just need to have a grasp of Lua

[drowsy heath]

that shouldnt be there

still the same

[red flower]

just lua, you will mostly be using a lot of balatro's own functions

you only need love2d if you do something very low level

[hidden sable]

love2d is very bare bones engine so most of stuff has to be preprogrammed

[tardy raven]

define low level if you could

[hidden sable]

gotta say, i fucking hate how thunk did his ui, we should kill him

[drowsy heath]

remake it then

[hidden sable]

hell no

[drowsy heath]

would be fun

[hidden sable]

id die

[tardy raven]

i mean tbf its not like we're implementing the most insane shit ever I think really the largest deviation we had in mind was like. two rarities and a card that tracks IRL inactivity

[drowsy heath]

why its just a bit of art

[red flower]

mostly very specific graphics stuff or controller stuff that's not handled by balatro's own graphics and controller system

[hidden sable]

id basically be remaking balatro

[drowsy heath]

yeah thats fair

[tardy raven]

ok that makes sense

atm im pretty much almost fully versed in basic Lua so

it's just a matter of understanding how Steammodded works

[red flower]

yeah

[drowsy heath]

well anyway ratmilk erm its still 226 causing me problems why is that

i trust your brain

[tardy raven]

ill prolly be taking a visit or two to this chat on occasion since like I said im practically raw meat

[red flower]

im always happy to help when im around

[hidden sable]

are you sure you reloaded the brain

[tardy raven]

'preciate it

[drowsy heath]

yeah

[tardy raven]

im gonna try to understand steammodded

[hidden sable]

reloaded the brain?? am i high??

[red flower]

i recommend my own vanillaremade that has a lot of vanilla objects remade in steamodded :3

[hidden sable]

someone really needs to give smods docs a redo

[tardy raven]

i think i'm running in the right direction but if something goes wrong then i'll be here

[hidden sable]

i learned smods just from chatting here tbh

[red flower]

i think the docs are fine, just incomplete

[drowsy heath]

my idea for learning balatro modding on a whole

[red flower]

i dont want people to tutorialize the docs

[hidden sable]

theres secret variables they dont tell you about in the main, only tell you about them through subtexts

which is REALLY annoying for some things

[red flower]

like what

[hidden sable]

like some contexts are hidden in the calculate subtexts

uhh theres return values hidden in message subtexts

[red flower]

the context page is incomplete yeah

[hidden sable]

also my suggestion is there should be a page called like idk "your first mod" and it is a short tutorial on how to set up a project, import atlases, sounds, and at least 1 of every type of preprogrammed moddable objects (jokers, consumable, decks, etc)

and goes into detail on what everything does

and how it works

like when i first started out

i thought config was a fancy way of storing data

so i used local variable

until i found out config SAVES the values PER CARD

[red flower]

i agree but i dont think that's should be "giving the docs a redo"

that just means we need more tutorials

but tutorials are not the goal of documentation

[hidden sable]

which is something that might not be appearant to new modders

[hidden sable]

not part of the redo, jsut saying, new modders need one

[red flower]

i agree, i dont think it's the fault of the docs which is what i was arguing

[drowsy heath]

yes yes we do

coming from a clueless individual

[hidden sable]

i mean maybe i could try to learn all moddable objects then make a mod thats heavily commented

[hidden sable]

i was you like 3 days ago

[red flower]

there is one

[drowsy heath]

oh damn

[red flower]

drago made it let me find it

[drowsy heath]

will it help me with my problem

[hidden sable]

oh yeah your problem uhh

[faint yacht]

...why did I make this?

[hidden sable]

send screenshot of code (discords indenting sucks)

[drowsy heath]

i tried everything

[red flower]

https://github.com/Dragokillfist/Example-Balatro-Mod/tree/main

[hidden sable]

also worst part about me starting out clueless, my mod uses no spritesheets, no localiztion, and no multifiles, because im too deep in the mod to swap it all out

[drowsy heath]

oh mine is just 1 .lua file with all my jokers in it and atm i have no art

[drowsy heath]

whats wrong with them

[hidden sable]

what do you think #1# represents

[drowsy heath]

idk

wait

oh

[hidden sable]

that is how loc_vars works

[drowsy heath]

okay so i made it 2 and it didnt help

still crashes

[hidden sable]

you could say i have something similar going on

[hidden sable]

damn 😭

[drowsy heath]

what on eath is that

thats painful to look at

[modern kindle]

mine was once just a single lua file as well, i encourage you to aplit it up sooner rather than alter lmfao

[modern kindle]

i also encourage you to make a localization file

[hidden sable]

yeah this is getting unbearbale

[hidden sable]

i dont even know localization because im too deep

[drowsy heath]

so what that for coz i got no clue

[modern kindle]

i didnt start splitting mine until i had like 50 jokers, several consumables, and etc
and it was a menace

[modern kindle]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Localization

[drowsy heath]

my head hurt looking at that but give it when im more awake ill understand it and fix all my mod files

but rn i want to make everything i have work, i have a joker that crashes my game when my cursor is on it and i have a deck that just wont work at all

[hidden sable]

send your new joker code

[modern kindle]

its not so bad dont worry lmao
its just moving all of your loc_txts basically to one file where others can make translations if necessary later on instead of your descs being within your jokers

[hidden sable]

also please practice code formatting

[modern kindle]

if youre in vscode you can auto format it

and make sure you have the lua extension

[drowsy heath]

how do i format the code i use visual studio

    key = "joker8",
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'clueless',
        text = {
            'i dont know if you should get',
            '{X:mult,c:white}X#1# {} mult',
            '{Xchips,c:white}X#2# {} chips',
            'or +10 dollars'
        }
    },
    config = { extra = { xmult = 10, xchips = 10, } },
    loc_vars = function (self, info_queue, card)
  return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xmult, card.ability.extra.xchips } }
end,
    atlas = "joker",
    pos = {
        x = 7 ,
        y = 0
    },
    cost = 20,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    rarity = 4,
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        local chance = pseudorandom("94738", 1, 3)
        if context.joker_main then
if chance == 1 then
    return {xmult = 10 }
elseif chance == 2 then
    return {x_chips = 10 }
else
    return {dollars = 10 }
end
end
end
} ```

anyway thats the joker code i dk why it wont work tho i dont get it

[hidden sable]

what the fuck is a localization, said the if language == "en-us" then

[modern kindle]

you should be able to do shift+alt+f i think?
otherwise just do ctrl+a, right click, then hit format selection

[hidden sable]

i use notepad++ should i switch?

[modern kindle]

i recommend vscode personally yea

[hidden sable]

ive always seen vscode as confusing

too many buttons

[modern kindle]

notepad++ was my first editor in my gmod days

then i went to sublime

[drowsy heath]

shift alt f worked

[modern kindle]

then i settled on vscode

[hidden sable]

screenshot with linew numbers visible

[hidden sable]

and what is the error again

WHAT DOES ANY OF THIS MEAN IM SCARED

[drowsy heath]

i cant remember.... hold on

[modern kindle]

those are just release notes dont worry about em lmao

[hidden sable]

how do i open my project

[modern kindle]

but for your mod you can just make a workspace and add your mod into it and all that

[drowsy heath]

226 extra a nil value

[hidden sable]

😵‍💫

[hidden sable]

226 is rarity

[drowsy heath]

but that has nothing to do with extra 😭

i dont get ittttttttt

[hidden sable]

did you make sure you sved your code before reloading?

[drowsy heath]

yeah

i think

hold on

[hidden sable]

pro tipif you dont know: while in crash screen, press r to reload, while ingame, press alt f5 to reload

[drowsy heath]

217 nil

[drowsy heath]

i saved then formated it

[hidden sable]

how do imake a "workspace"

[sour garden]

okay out of curiosity is there a variable for counting the amount of cards in your hand? my method works for now, but it doesn't account for stuff that puts you over the hand limit like DNA

[drowsy heath]

Go to file and open folder, then use your balatro mods folder in %appdatq%

Thats what i did

[hidden sable]

ok i think i did it?

[drowsy heath]

Yeah thats ur files

[hidden sable]

any way to move these menus around?

[drowsy heath]

Oh I got no clue

[hidden sable]

these placement make me uncomfortable

[drowsy heath]

Ik its rlly annoying but it grows on you when u get too annoyed to find out how to change it

[modern kindle]

honestly i like it as is, everything in one place and readily accessible

[drowsy heath]

Yeah took me a while to get used to it

But I'm happy with the ui now

[hidden sable]

i want my explorer to be on the right side

[daring fern]

Try dragging the top of it over to the right side.

[drowsy heath]

OH THAT WORKS

THIS IS SO MUcH BETTER

[hidden sable]

OH GOD

😭

[drowsy heath]

oh dayum

[hidden sable]

whats the auto format key?

[drowsy heath]

shift alt f

nah its alt f4 trust

[floral spindle]

    key = "BordBorn",
    path = "borblinds.png",
    px = 34,
    py = 34
}

SMODS.Blind {
    key = "Physik",
        loc_txt = {
        name = 'The Physician',
        text = {
            "Can't play more than 4 cards"
        }
    },
    atlas = "BordBorn",
    dollars = 5,
    mult = 2,
    debuff = {h_size_le = 4},
    pos = { x = 0, y = 1 },
    boss = { min = 2 },
    boss_colour = HEX("813cef")
}```

this crashes the game when I try to view my blind

[hidden sable]

HOW DO I FIX TEH YELLOW

[drowsy heath]

just ignore it

[hidden sable]

😭

[drowsy heath]

if ur code worked then its fine

[hidden sable]

true but

[daring fern]

You put SMODS and the lovely dump in your workspace.

[hidden sable]

the whole right side is yellow

[hidden sable]

uhh, how

[drowsy heath]

guys my toe has dislocated erm im in pain

[hidden sable]

why did you do that

[drowsy heath]

i dont want to smash it back in its gunna hurt

[daring fern]

File > Add Folder To Workspace

[drowsy heath]

I DIDNT DO IT ON PUPOSE

i was stretching

[hidden sable]

uhhh wheres file

[drowsy heath]

ok its all gud now im ok

[hidden sable]

MORE YELLOW

[daring fern]

Try opening the Mods folder directly.

[floral spindle]

why does this code make my game crash

[daring fern]

Log?

[hidden sable]

UHHH

[daring fern]

No, File > Open Folder

[modern kindle]

ill be real i leave my shit yellow cause it does not impact me very much lmfao
but adding them to your workspace is a good idea

[hidden sable]

everythings gone

[daring fern]

No, open the Mods folder.

[daring fern]

With File > Open Folder

[hidden sable]

yeah i did that

everythings gone

SIDEBAR GOT DISABLED IDK WHY

[modern kindle]

i just checked and adding it like that does in fact clear your workspace if you already established one

in the workspace youd want to select all 3 folders in the workspace instead of just your mod

[hidden sable]

i have a yellow here

[drowsy heath]

I THINK I FIXED IT

no

im going to either cry or give up and just make the text just say it normally

[hidden sable]

no stick to loc vars

its useful

[drowsy heath]

but whyyyy

the card still works without it

so just vwoomp it out of exsistance

[floral spindle]

I sent the log

[drowsy heath]

see card works now

and triggers correctly

[daring fern]

That's not fixable.

[hidden sable]

you can have decks or other cards edit how much mult that card gives

[hidden sable]

you really need to set up localization

lets set up localization together

[drowsy heath]

i mean im fine with how it is and its legendary sooooo rarely gunna be used

[hidden sable]

im setting this up rn

[drowsy heath]

how idek what im doingggggg

[hidden sable]

still

[hidden sable]

neither do i

we gonna find out

i think how it is is just

[modern kindle]

then you guys should make everything talisman compatible and then make it cryptid compatible and then make it everything else compatible

smiley face

[hidden sable]

put the key in

and assign it loc_txt

[drowsy heath]

so just make a file for all the different types of things

what about a folder and each thing has its own file to keep things organised

so jokers have a lua file each in a joker folder

[modern kindle]

some people do one file per joker, others just throw in a joker.lua in a jokers folder
just a preference thing

personally im just jokers.lua in a modules folder

[hidden sable]

hey guys look at my atlases

[drowsy heath]

per lua is better for management though and i only have like 9 rn

WHY SO MANY IN ONE PLACE

I DONT UNDERSTAND

[hidden sable]

i dont use spritesheets 😭

[modern kindle]

the ctrl+f in question negates the management concern

[hidden sable]

or just scrolling

[drowsy heath]

i mean like being able to configurate a specific joker without having to search through a big code file

[modern kindle]

my joker file is 5k lines long, i aint scrollin that lmfao

[drowsy heath]

i just find its name

[hidden sable]

do you set up colors in localization?

i just do it like this

[daring fern]

You don't put colours in localization?

[hidden sable]

idfk man

how do you set up colors

like im doing?

[daring fern]

Are you referring to using them in joker descriptions or similar?

[floral spindle]

why cant I apply an atlas to my blind

[daring fern]

It needs to be a ANIMATION_ATLAS atlas.

[hidden sable]

both idk

[drowsy heath]

okay so they all have their own file what else do i need to do

[hidden sable]

we need to load them

mr poly bridge will tell us how

i think its SMODS.load_file(path)

[daring fern]

SMODS.load_file("pathfromroot")()

[hidden sable]

why the extra () lol

[daring fern]

Because it returns a function.

[faint yacht]

To execute as function.

[daring fern]

You would need to put it in loc_colours then.

[hidden sable]

can i get like copilot or something to do this lol

[drowsy heath]

what

[hidden sable]

load the files

main.lua is the only file running, in main.lua we gotta tell smods to laod the other files

[daring fern]

Perhaps.

[drowsy heath]

ohhhh

and we do that how....

[daring fern]

#💻・modding-dev message

[faint yacht]

If you don't want to repeat SMODS.load_file(path) over and over, you could do a loop instead.

for _, file in ipairs{'file1.lua', 'file2.lua', 'other/file1.lua'} do
  SMODS.load_file(file)
end

[hidden sable]

this ai is ass

[drowsy heath]

hehehe

whats that top line for

[hidden sable]

color for my ui

[drowsy heath]

oh fair enough

[faint yacht]

Missing the .lua extensions, but that would technically be correct.

[drowsy heath]

why the code/ before it

[faint yacht]

Probably assumes the files are stored in the code subfolder.

[drowsy heath]

so like this

[faint yacht]

...if you have a code folder with all of those, then yeah.

[drowsy heath]

wait i feel dumb nvm ill fix it

whats after that them

then*

[hidden sable]

oh hell yeah they have this feature

multiselect

hold and and select to make anaother cursor

[drowsy heath]

whats after that tho somet about atlas isnt it

[hidden sable]

i define my atlases in a file

now we need to do localization

@daring fern mr poly bridge how does one localize
