[timid parrot]

anyone got any idea why the first_hand_drawn context doesn't seem to be doing anything?

is this a bug with smods or did I screw something up?

[pale holly]

do you mind sharing the code part directly ? the calculate part that is

[tardy raven]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
        if function()
            local rankCount = 0
            for i, c in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
                if c:get_id() == 6 then
                    rankCount = rankCount + 1
                end
            end
            return rankCount == 3
        if rankCount == 3
        return {
                    chips = card.ability.extra.chips,
        }
            end
        end
    end
end
}

[pale holly]

so three 6s for 70 chips right ?

[tardy raven]

mhm!

man if im struggling this much with a relatively simple card im worried about some of the complex stuff I have planned

[pale holly]

oh don't worry, i've been there before

and still am kinda

[tardy raven]

it just sucks being so new to lua in general and just as new to smods and feeling like I have to be handheld through everything

[timid parrot]

you strike me as someone new to programming in general

[tardy raven]

you'd be correct

ive coded before in a different engine but

it wasn't a big project

i'm still tryna find my footing and be able to lead on my own but a lot of the information hasn't really stuck in my head and i'm still a good ways through the smods doc

so i'm as noob as you could probably get

i have friends who know their way around lua but

[timid parrot]

from what I can tell, you lack the fundamentals

not even of smods but just of lua and even programming logic in general

[tardy raven]

i've done a watch of a tutorial series but the info really didn't stick i guess

[timid parrot]

yeah I mean a lot of programming is practice and problem solving

there are plenty of websites out there that have beginner programming problems to help you build up those skills if it's something you're interested in

[pale holly]

    if context.joker_main and context.cardarea == G.play then
        if ((function()
            local rankCount = 0
            for i, c in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
                if c:get_id() == 6 then
                    rankCount = rankCount + 1
                end
            end
            return rankCount == 3
                    end)())  then
        return {
                    chips = card.ability.extra.chips
        }
            end
        end
    end
end
}```

try this

[tardy raven]

most likely yeah it would be, i'd like a link to those

I just wanna be able to make progress on this w/o needing to constantly be handheld ig

[timid parrot]

idk if there's ones for strictly lua, but really any procedural language will help

[lament agate]

bumpy bump

[pale holly]

what's the code for the description

[pale holly]

do you mind sharing the full code this time ?

[tardy raven]

it's contained in a large doc but i'll send the relevant block to this joker

lua 
SMODS.Atlas{
    key = 'badguy',
    path = 'TheBadGuy.png',
    px = 71,
    py = 95,
}

SMODS.Joker{
  key = 'badguy',
  loc_txt = {
    name = 'The Bad Guy',
    text = {
      "If hand contains three 6's",
      '{C:blue}+70{} chips' },},
    rarity = 1,
    cost = 5, 
    atlas = 'badguy',
    pos = {x=0, y= 0},
    config = {
        extra = {
            chips = 70
        }
    },

 calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.joker_main and context.cardarea == G.play then
        if ((function()
            local rankCount = 0
            for i, c in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
                if c:get_id() == 6 then
                    rankCount = rankCount + 1
                end
            end
            return rankCount == 3
                    end)())  then
        return {
                    chips = card.ability.extra.chips
        }
            end
        end
    end
end
}```

[timid parrot]

I'd recommend doing your own research and maybe starting with a language other than lua. Not that lua is a bad language but that I think there's less practice material for it. Something like python, which has a lot of similarities https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_exercises.asp

[lament agate]

here

[pale holly]

i think you added an extra 'end' at the end, just 3 ends instead of 4

[pale holly]

ah you don't use the loc_txt, not sure if i can help that way sorry

[timid parrot]

there's also the fact that lua is not a big name programming language, so any docs and tutorials you find are more likely to be geared towards people who already have programming skills in other languages

[tardy raven]

yeah

i know a tiny bit about c but like barely anything

i'm as raw meat to this as you can get

[timid parrot]

don't start with C

[lament agate]

ohhhh

[tardy raven]

joker boots but effect doesn't execute

[lament agate]

what about the localization

[pale holly]

that's already a step forward

[pale holly]

wait, use chip_mod instead of chip instead of chips

[lone dove]

hiii im new at modding and rlly wanna playtest my jokers, how could i get them easily to see if they work

[subtle merlin]

You have debug plus?

[pale holly]

Just put them in the mod folder and test them, Debug PLus is good

[lone dove]

i dont think so, how does it work/how could it help

[subtle merlin]

https://github.com/WilsontheWolf/DebugPlus

[pale holly]

allows you to spawn your jokers from the collections, in fact you could use also Too Many Jokers that make the work easier since you can search the precise jokers you want

[pale holly]

so did it work now or not ? :U

[tardy raven]

checking rn

like this?

[pale holly]

no, at the end
chip_mod = card.ability.extra.chips

wait

[copper thorn]

hey, for context, i made a card that retrigers stone cards and tranforms non scoring cards into stone card, but i wnt to make the code retrigger every queen twice , and transforms non-scoring cards into polychrome queen

what should i change ?

 config = { extra = { repetitions = 1 } },

    loc_vars = function(self,info_queue,center)
        info_queue[#info_queue+1] = G.P_CENTERS.m_stone
    end,

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.cardarea == G.play and context.repetition and not context.repetition_only then
            if context.other_card.config.center.key == 'm_stone' then
                return {
                    message = 'Again!',
                    repetitions = card.ability.extra.repetitions,
                    card = context.other_card
                }
            end
        end
        if context.before and not card.debuff then
            card.ability.extra.AddChips = 0
            for i=1, #context.full_hand do
                local card_is_scoring = false
                for j=1, #context.scoring_hand do
                    if context.full_hand[i] == context.scoring_hand[j] then
                        card_is_scoring = true
                    end
                end
                if card_is_scoring == false and not context.full_hand[i].debuff and not context.full_hand[i].clown_destroying then
                            context.full_hand[i]:flip();
                            context.full_hand[i]:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS.m_stone);
                            context.full_hand[i]:flip();
                end
            end
        end
    end
} ```

[tardy raven]

no change with this

[lone dove]

do u know the command for spawning one?

[pale holly]

iuse ctrl + c

[fluid burrow]

I have this code for a sticker, but I'd like it to move when the Joker is activated with the sticker. Does anyone know how?

[copper thorn]

with debugplus in collection, get your mouse on a card and press 3

should spawn it

[lone dove]

thank you so much

[tardy raven]

miss smth?

[pale holly]

wait i just realised but you don't have a loc_vars

[fluid burrow]

This code

[pale holly]

add

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

after config

something like this

[tardy raven]

no change

[pale holly]

reshare the screenshot of the current code again ?

[copper thorn]

damn, what are you using to code ?

[pale holly]

my text editor, it's just a new unsaved file so it doesn't show the colors effect

[copper thorn]

ohhhh

[copper thorn]

bump (bad timing, maybe if it is the case)

[pale holly]

rechange chip_mod to chips back (yes i know)

[tardy raven]

no change

[molten musk]

morning folks

[fluid burrow]

Can someone help me?

[molten musk]

what do u mean by move?

[fluid burrow]

shake

[molten musk]

G.RESET_JIGGLES```

is for shaking

dna shake for example

other than that i dont know 😅

[fluid burrow]

mmm that little move a Joker makes when it activates not sure if I’m making myself clear

[molten musk]

when exactly do u wanna shake the joker? all the time or when active or another condition?

[pale holly]

I FOUND IT !!

[tardy raven]

fr?

[pale holly]

it needs to be only context.joker_main

you can remove context are card

i just tested of my own and it worked

[tardy raven]

alright I’ll give that a shot

[fluid burrow]

The function of the sticker is to steal 10% of the base chips. I want it to shake when that theft happens

[molten musk]

oh i see

one sec let me think

[pale holly]

overal just this, i think the game couldn't process to be both for some reason

and i tested it without and with 3 6s

it does applies the effect only when there's 3 6s

[stiff quiver]

hey quick question, does the art for an edition have to be a shader or would a png work?

[fluid burrow]

shader

to adapt to the lights

[molten musk]

i dont know if im correct or not, but i think all u need is a return function when theft happens

[tardy raven]

works! tysm

[pale holly]

YES !!

glad i could help

[tardy raven]

i'm prolly gonna put this on the side since clearly I need to re-examine lua

[pale holly]

contexes is sometimes really not looked at too much lmao

[pale holly]

my best suggestion is to look at other mods, one usefull resource is Vanilla Remade

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade

it basically has jokers, enhancement, vouchers, etc

[molten musk]

@fluid burrow can u add a retrurn before the last end and see what happens

[pale holly]

it's the vanilla jokers codded in lua with smods in mind

so it's a good resource if you ever need to do something but don't know how

[tardy raven]

definitely been lookin’ at that a good amount yeah but

I’m more talking just an understanding of coding logic like the guy said earlier

so yeah ima try and re-examine

[copper thorn]

bump 2.0...

[fluid burrow]

inside the if?

[molten musk]

add this before the last end

    chips = card.ability.extra.chips
}```
and add this a the start 

config = { extra = {chips =0} }```

[molten musk]

outside

im 90% sure something is gonna go wrong but its a start ig

dont wanna go up and down to keep looking at it lol

@fluid burrow why is your code like this if u dont mind me asking?

i'm looking at other scaling jokers in game and they they scale is diff

[fluid burrow]

what are you talking about?

[molten musk]

here 3 examples from game jokers

they all store how much they scaled and how much they scale each time in config

and then they add condition to when to scale

your code, i dont see where and how
it may just be me not understanding it correctly lol

[formal parrot]

Hello dev chat

[molten musk]

hi Heaven

hru?

[formal parrot]

Hello izz

[fluid burrow]

It could be because it's for a sticker and it's different from how jokers work

[formal parrot]

I just had the worst exam this semester 😭🙏

[molten musk]

oh

[formal parrot]

I’m good tho

Wbu :>

How’s modding

[molten musk]

good

[molten musk]

starting new joker today

[molten musk]

wait what?

[formal parrot]

Whats the effect

[stiff quiver]

im getting this crash and i dont know why ```lua
SMODS.Shader{
key = "filter_shader",
path = "filtered.fs"
}
SMODS.Edition{
key = "filtered",
loc_txt = {
name = "Filtered",
text = {
"nil"
},
label = "Filtered"
},
shader = "filter_shader",

[molten musk]

Gains 10 chips for each triggered played seal

[formal parrot]

Couldn’t locate your shader file

[fluid burrow]

yeah is sticker code

[formal parrot]

Thats nice

[molten musk]

@fluid burrow explain the joker function fully please

[formal parrot]

Oh

[molten musk]

it should be easy

[formal parrot]

You’re using the wrong key

Silly

Wait

I might be stupid let me think

[formal parrot]

Mhm should look for triggering seals at end of round and played hand

[stiff quiver]

yeah thats what the crash msg said but it is the right key i think

[formal parrot]

Check for typo

Shouldn’t you add mod prefix ?

[fluid burrow]

It’s not exactly a Joker it’s a sticker applied to a Joker, and it mainly adds downsides. For example, 'Eternal' makes the Joker unsellable and indestructible. In my case, the sticker steals chips from the hand that was played

[molten musk]

oh

[stiff quiver]

i havent added mod prefix for anything and everything else is working right

[molten musk]

now i see its a sticker ....
i thought it was a joker ahhhhhhh

[formal parrot]

Here’s an example

so confused why my game keeps crashing

[marble yoke]

1

[fluid burrow]

I think I’ve got an idea display a message when it activates, like (-10 chips) or something

[molten musk]

return {'message'} should work

[fluid burrow]

Now the problem is that they activate at the same time

[lone dove]

could someone help pretty pls

[molten musk]

send code

[floral narwhal]

how can i fix soul's scale too?

[molten musk]

somehow u need to make sticker trigger only for the joker its on

[lone dove]

can i send in dm, its long

[molten musk]

just screen shot line 2765 and around it a bit
like 10 lines up and down

[molten musk]

scale??

[floral narwhal]

yeah

[molten musk]

oh

[stiff quiver]

im thinking it might be that im missing something, im testing this with the foil shader just with a different file name, so maybe it needs something more

[molten musk]

sorry not in my limited skills list lol

[unborn bay]

either call set_sprites again like so

newcard:set_sprites(G.P_CENTERS.j_pal_parsi)

or just set the multiplication (right) on the width and height directly on card creation

G.CARD_W * 1.7675,
G.CARD_H * 1.7675,

[unborn bay]

the soul not scaling is caused by the scaling applied during card creation which doesn't apply when you actually manually edit the transform values

[floral narwhal]

ok

oh

[formal parrot]

I hate shader coding

Hard math

Shenanigans

[molten musk]

dude show line numbers pl ^^

[stiff quiver]

i hate it too, mainly cause i have no idea how to even do it lol, hence why i stole foil code

[formal parrot]

LMFAO SAME

[lone dove]

mb didnt realize they were cut

[stiff quiver]

well for now i'll just make the code for the edition and i'll just set the shader part of it to false

[molten musk]

i have no clue ...

[formal parrot]

Use a placeholder shader

I think

Keyword think

[lone dove]

well shit 😭

[formal parrot]

Balatro shaders are codded with f# and glsl

There’s no such resources for this

Only some examples

And the love 2d vlog on shaders

If you want i can send links

[stiff quiver]

i'll probably ask someone else to make the shader

i think i know someone who can

[formal parrot]

Great :>

I suggest looking to other people’s shaders

[thorn basin]

Question: how can I check for every joker if it has been destroyed by the custom joker itself?

Cuz I wanna check for every joker destroyed by this custom joker it gains +Mult

[formal parrot]

You can destroy and add value

[thorn basin]

oh shoot yes, I forgor

thx!

[formal parrot]

If its last index it will destroy 1
If its index =last index and first index (there’s only 1 joker ) so no destroy
If its first aswell it will add 1
If its neither last or first then it will destroy 2

Adding double value

[lone dove]

i think debugplus is crashing my game

[formal parrot]

How ?😂

Whats the crashlog

im so confused ive tried everything, the game only begn crashing when i installed it, maybe i installed it wrong? idk

[stiff quiver]

how do i enable joker retriggering?

[formal parrot]

You don’t 😂

The game takes care of it

You can disable blueprint compat

[stiff quiver]

oh its enabled by default? idk why i thought it wasnt

[molten musk]

ok so i have 2 issues with the code

• card in hand scaling triggers for all seals and in every played hand, i want it only when triggered
  like blue seal on last hand, or red seal on a steal card mid play
• discard doesnt scale

[formal parrot]

It is if your joker context isn’t add to deck and remove from deck or selling_self

Or selling_card

Any other context will retrigger

[formal parrot]

0 idea

[lone dove]

i’m cursed😭

[molten musk]

dont give up, u will find the issue if u keep trying

[stiff quiver]

so i just use context.repetition for it ?

[formal parrot]

No its

[lone dove]

that’s rlly sweet ty, ima sleep on it n try again tomorrow

[formal parrot]

Any joker with context different than those can be retriggered automatically

If you add repetitions

[molten musk]

dont forget me pl

[stiff quiver]

wdym adding repetitions, like ading them to the return?

[formal parrot]

Add context.end_of_round to cardarea==G.hand ?

Seal retriggers don’t work for discards

[molten musk]

but that will make it so i f i have a red seal trigger mid play in hand it wont work

[molten musk]

i know, just checking if the discarded seal did trigger, then add chips

[formal parrot]

You have to force trigger i think

[formal parrot]

Yes

Depends on if you want to retrigger same joker or other one

[molten musk]

what exactly are u planning?

[stiff quiver]

the same one, its for the edition

[molten musk]

oh i see

[stiff quiver]

so for now i have this```lua
if context.joker_main or (context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.play) then
if true then --pseudorandom("filtered",1,2) == 1 then
return{ repetitions = 1}
end
end

[formal parrot]

Return {repetitions=1}```

[formal parrot]

It should be and not or

[formal parrot]

This would work

[formal parrot]

Add and (your pseudorandom)

[stiff quiver]

would this work for it? ```lua
if (context.joker_main and context.repetition) or (context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.play) then

[formal parrot]

If you want it to be affected by game probabilities effect like ooops all sixes I won’t suggest that doing pseudorandom like that

This is fixed 1 in 2

[formal parrot]

No

No or

Its all and

[stiff quiver]

i dont, i want it to be a fixed 1 in 2

[formal parrot]

Use game probabilities instead of 1

Wait i’ll show you an example

[stiff quiver]

i want it to be a 50/50, cause it either retriggers it or debuffs it

[molten musk]

can i do this somehow?

[stiff quiver]

so this would work right? ```lua
if context.joker_main and context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.play then

[formal parrot]

pseudorandom('seed') < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / card.ability.extra.odds then

Add odds in your config

Set it to 2

[formal parrot]

Print(“something “)

If it triggers it would show in your console

In debugplus

[molten musk]

i see

[stiff quiver]

its not retriggering the jokers, only the playing cards

[formal parrot]

G.jokers

My bad :3

G.jokers.card==card

I think

[formal parrot]

Yeah this should work

silly me forgor

[molten musk]

for _, c in ipairs(G.discard.cards or {}) do
    if c.seal and G.P_SEALS[c.seal] and G.P_SEALS[c.seal].calculate then
        -- Build a context for the seal effect
        local seal_context = {
            cardarea = G.discard,
            main_scoring = true, -- or false if you don't want to score
            individual = true,
            other_card = c,
            discard = true,
        }
        G.P_SEALS[c.seal]:calculate(c, seal_context)
    end
end```

what do u think of this code

AI helped but not sure

[formal parrot]

I dunno

I didnt do advanced calculating for context before

[stiff quiver]

so this should work? lua if context.repetition and (context.cardarea == G.play or (context.cardarea == G.jokers and G.jokers.card == card)) then

[formal parrot]

Remove G.play

[stiff quiver]

would it retrigger regular cards without it still?

[formal parrot]

Whats your objective

So i can tell you exactly what to do

[stiff quiver]

an edition that has a 50/50 chance of retriggering the card or debuffing it

so it has to work on both jokers and playing cards

[formal parrot]

Oh okay i see

Try some stuff while i look for the needed context

[stiff quiver]

with this playing cards retrigger themselves but jokers retrigger playing cards

[formal parrot]

I just found thus and its so funny 😭

[stiff quiver]

lmao

how would you know the notes are there if you cant read

[formal parrot]

AHHHHHHHHHH

1 second i think i figured it out

SMODS.Edition({ key = "overexposed", loc_txt = { name = "Overexposed", label = "Overexposed", text = { "{C:green}Retrigger{} this card" } }, discovered = true, unlocked = true, shader = 'overexposed', config = { repetitions = 1 }, in_shop = true, weight = 8, extra_cost = 4, apply_to_float = true, loc_vars = function(self) return {} end })

This is full code for triggering card with this edition

😭please read resources i send

[modern kindle]

Reading is overrated

[molten musk]

context.other_card.ability.seal checks if card has a seal, correct?

[stiff quiver]

oh, thats, way easier lol, sorry

[modern kindle]

context.other_card.seal I think

[stiff quiver]

context.other_card.seal checks the key of the seal

[formal parrot]

Debatable 😭 even eremel doesn’t know

We asked eremel he was like

Yeah i have no idea 😭

[modern kindle]

If its any seal at all it might just be card.seal unless im just outdated as hell

Mentally speaking

[molten musk]

nah it worked

not outdated yet

[modern kindle]

Glad to be of service :)

That'll be 400 dollars and a mcdouble

[molten musk]

is there a context to check if i added planets or tarots

or a condition

[formal parrot]

I think so

I think cards added to deck but change cardarea

Maybe

Maybe i’m stupid

[modern kindle]

Might be context.using_consumable

[formal parrot]

Thats using not adding

[subtle merlin]

Granted: you get a $400 Arby's gift card and a plain, dry McDouble

[modern kindle]

Sorry I thought they meant adding as in using it to add x thing

[formal parrot]

There should be

A context for consumable added

[molten musk]

cant find it in smods docs

[modern kindle]

Maybe context.card_added?

I think that's for all cards added to deck

[formal parrot]

Nope

Its playing_card_added

[cobalt iron]

is there a way to change the displayed score requirement? Because the moment I change the score requirement for a blind it doesn't show any changes

[formal parrot]

I think your best alternative is consumable bought

[molten musk]

context.card_added is for any card added

[molten musk]

this is for only playing cards

[formal parrot]

Yes

Maybe you can add cardarea==G.consumeables

[pale holly]

bump

[modern kindle]

if context.card_added and context.card.ability.set == "Tarot"

Or similar? Maybe?

[onyx sonnet]

is the documentation for SMODS.Center completely gone?

[modern kindle]

Still there that I see

Oh

Center not back

[onyx sonnet]

yeah im a bit fried lol

[tawdry oriole]

can't really figure out why this doesn't work - i've been doing the same thing for loc_vars the entire time but it just won't work here

[zealous glen]

Yes

[modern kindle]

Hi vic

[zealous glen]

Hello dilly

How are you

[modern kindle]

Was i wrong :(

Im okay, tired but alive

I hope you are well

[molten musk]

my balatro is not opening

its not even lunching

[modern kindle]

Maybe it needs dinner

[molten musk]

hahaha a

[onyx sonnet]

no crash log?

[molten musk]

no

its just not opening

[onyx sonnet]

not sure we can do anything to help if we cant diagnose the problem

try reverting your changes and see when it opens

[zealous glen]

Better but not great

[zealous glen]

Good to hear you’re okay

[modern kindle]

So I was right and awesome and epic

[modern kindle]

Small victories my friend
They make the world go round

[molten musk]

restarted laptop

it works now

[thorn basin]

how can I make a joker set the current played hand's chips and mult to 0?
Basically like The Flint blind but instead of halving literally sets both to 0.

[final goblet]

guys...

can anyone help me with this crash log?

im SERIOUS!!!

THiS IS ALL IT SAYS!!!

one sec lemme emulate it

[fluid burrow]

Copy the Flint code, but multiply by 0

[copper thorn]

SMODS.Rarity{
    key = "Void",
    prefix_config = {key = false},
    badge_colour = G.C.DARK_EDITION,
    pools = {["Joker"] = true},
    get_weight = function(self, weight, object_type)
        return weight
    end,
}

i need help, it's my first rarity and im lost

what do need to add to make my joker appear only in souls and make it say not "common" but "Voidborn"

[native zinc]

what the hell happened here

what's the code

you're feeding an incorrect argument to a function

[thorn basin]

I tried doing that but it crashes and says that "blind" is a nil value.
Someone else from #⚙・modding-general said that I should't do that.

[final goblet]

i dont fucking know man

that triggered when the money window popped up

[molten musk]

how to i check if i used a specific consumable using context

[final goblet]

the one that says cash out at the end of it

[final goblet]

this is literally!!! the entire crash log

[red flower]

you shouldn't do that

[stuck vault]

I'm trying to make an enhancement which acts like the Glass Card so it has a chance to destroy itself. However, I cant seem to find a way to do this. I have looked into the source code and didn't really find where it supposedly destroys itself with that chance. I've looked at other projects but didn’t find anything I could understand there either. I'm pretty new to modding Balatro, so help would be appreciated :D
my current code:

[native zinc]

just set chips directly and update hand text

[fluid burrow]

you do not need to access the blind

[native zinc]

update_hand_text({}, {mult = mult, chips = hand_chips})

[thorn basin]

thank you so much!

[native zinc]

just set hand_chips and mult directly and update the text

[stiff quiver]

i just tested this and its not retriggering jokers for some reason

[stuck vault]

thank you i got it to work

[dire marlin]

how to make ability like pareidolia but considered as numbered card?

[red flower]

hook is_face and return false

[copper thorn]

...

[red flower]

how's the joker defined

to make it appear in the soul i think you need to take_ownership of it

[copper thorn]

wdym

[red flower]

which part of what i said

[copper thorn]

all of it (ima begginer in making mods i might get lost easily)

like how do i check how i defin,ed it ? if i even defined it

[red flower]

what's the code for the joker, i mean

take_ownership is a way to change what a card does

the soul specifically spawns legendaries so if you want it to spawn another rarity you need to change it

[fluid burrow]

Soulable should be used, right?

[copper thorn]

[copper thorn]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-

[red flower]

i don't think rarities have that attribute unless it's new

[copper thorn]

nevermind it, im not motivated enough

[red flower]

rarity should be "modprefix_Void" in quotes

modprefix being your mod's prefix

[copper thorn]

and where should i put it ?

[red flower]

where it says rarity = Void

the Void part is wrong

[fluid burrow]

Must be rarity = 4

[red flower]

no that's for legendary

[copper thorn]

like this ?

[red flower]

yes but replace modprefix for your mod's prefix

[copper thorn]

ah

ok it's done

[dire marlin]

like this?

[copper thorn]

uhhhh

[red flower]

no

[floral narwhal]

im still finding how to fix this but now with this problem. i made this for now but it makes no sense

[red flower]

if next(SMODS.find_card("j_modprefix_key")) then
    return false
end
return card_is_face_ref(self, from_boss) 

[red flower]

can i see the code again

[floral narwhal]

{n=G.UIT.C, config={align = "cm", padding = 0.05, colour = G.C.BLACK, r = 0.1}, nodes={
{n=G.UIT.C, config={align = "cr", padding = 0.01, r = 0.1, colour = G.C.CHIPS, minw = 1.1}, nodes={

enitre code ? with SMODS.rairity and the smods.joker and all ?

just the joker

[red flower]

two things:

1. in your rarity remove the whole prefix_config line
2. your mod's prefix is awak not Awake

[copper thorn]

better but no name

[hidden sable]

hey that's also what i did lol

[red flower]

you need a loc_txt in your rarity

or a localization file entry

[red flower]

can i see the code

[formal parrot]

Hello N

[copper thorn]

watching on steammoddeds first mod github i found this thingy misc.labels['k_'..key:lower()] what do i do with it ?

[red flower]

hii

[stiff quiver]

how can i change the game over/ win text that jimbo says?

[red flower]

do you have a localization file? if not ignore it

loc_txt = { name = "rarity name" }

is what you need

[copper thorn]

thnaks alot, it works now ! :)

and quick question now that i think of it, how do i cange the mod names color in the desc of the jokers ?

[red flower]

in your mod's metadata

[copper thorn]

makes sense

[red flower]

badge_colour
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Mod-Metadata

[copper thorn]

i search here first when i wanna make something without bothering poeple but thanks x)

what's the default_weight of rare cards ?

[snow vale]

can blinds have config?

[dire marlin]

is this right?

[red flower]

it should be function Card:is_face
and the return should have self

also your joker's key should have the mod prefix

[stiff quiver]

how can i change the text that j_joker says when you lose/win a run?

[dire marlin]

oh yeah it worked

thanks

[next timber]

how come playing a straight with two specific jokers from my mod crashes the game? (sometimes?? there was one specific instance where it didnt that i cant recreate) im baffled i have no clue what im doing

images are the error, the line in smods thats throwing it, and the calculate functions of the 2 jokers

[hidden sable]

is there any way to make it so whenever a specific consumable is ever shown on screen/spawned it becomes negative?

[red flower]

you're setting value to a number when it's a key?

[red flower]

you need to do it in set_ability iirc

[snow vale]

is there any way to make blinds change what suit they're debuffing each hand?

[hidden sable]

wdym

by specific consumable i mean a consumable that changes

could also be consumableS

[red flower]

oh so not one of yours?

then that's more complicated

[hidden sable]

no it is one of mine

its just controlled by a different object

im making a partner

and i want their linked consumable

to always be negative

[red flower]

oh then you set it to negative in set_ability if the condition is true

[next timber]

huh? checking the value of a card always gives me either a number or "Ace", "King", "Jack" or "Queen" so i dont see why setting it to a number should cause a problem

[red flower]

idk just throwing ideas

it seems like you're setting the value to something wrong tho

[copper thorn]

whats the default wheight of rare cards ?

[next timber]

OHH it needs to be a string not an int

sorry meant to turn off ping

really werid that this bug only seems to show up if i play a straight with BOTH jokers though

or does it

yeah no the second joker had literally nothing to do with it

its just if the resulting average card was a face card or not

[summer furnace]

Hey! How could I add a seal to a played card with a boss blind?

I am trying to look into the Horse Boss Blind in the yahimod, but I cannot find the code to that :/ (It uses a function I cannot find for the life of me)
This is the Code I have for that:

    name = "bosscasual",
    key = "bosscasual",
    mult = 0.5,
    dollars = 0,
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Casual',
        text = {
            'Nur für Casuals!'
        }
    },
    boss = { min = 1 },
    boss_colour = HEX('3cc0c8'),

    debuff_hand = function(self)
        for i = 1, #G.play.cards do
            if G.play.cards[i].seal == nil then
                SMODS.juice_up_blind()
                G.play.cards[i].seal = "FinusHD_casualseal"
            end
        end
    end,
}```
The current Problem with that is, that the seal does not save :/

[hidden sable]

what is card_eval_status_text

[red flower]

it makes the text thing appear on cards like returning a message

you should use SMODS.calculate_effect instead tho

[red flower]

try G.play.cards[i]:set_seal("key")

[summer furnace]

That works!!! Thank you!!!

[copper thorn]

seems good enough

[formal parrot]

We aren’t seeing this in shop 🙏

[manic rune]

doe:

[formal parrot]

Get a lot of this guy ⬆️

[lament agate]

@manic rune

heko

help

HELP

[manic rune]

sup

what is it

[lament agate]

pimp my code

[manic rune]

ship it

[lament agate]

it gives out ERROR in descbox

[manic rune]

that means whatever you are putting in localize is wrong

[lament agate]

fuck

what do

[manic rune]

can you give me an example of what this usually prints

[lament agate]

a random planet cards

[manic rune]

the planet card's key?

[lament agate]

yes

[red flower]

is localize(key, 'planets') a thing?

[manic rune]

mm

pretty sure not

[lament agate]

is it

ah god damnit

what do then

i thought it does

[manic rune]

and even if it is, it should return a table with both the name and the description of that card

[red flower]

localize{ type = "name_text", set = "Planet", key = key }

[manic rune]

yeah what N' said
-# im still trying to boot up vsc to check localize's code 😭

oh yeah

please dont use :lower() lol

[lament agate]

whats the matter

[manic rune]

some mods might have keys with uppercase characters in them

[lament agate]

ohhhh

i see

[lament agate]

what do i put in key?

[red flower]

the key

like "c_pluto" or whatever

[lament agate]

sure

now its nil

@manic rune @red flower

[manic rune]

huh

[red flower]

i mean i don't know what you want me to tell you without code

[manic rune]

same

[lament agate]

i just sent it tho

hold on

test

what the fuck

hold on

i got automodded

[red flower]

just send a screenshot

[manic rune]

aiko(?) sent an explanation about that before

[manic rune]

uhh your message with ``` being added with more characters when sent (color code or something) which causes it to go past the word limit

so it refuses to be sent

smt like that

[lament agate]

ah that fucking blows

[manic rune]

wrong type.........

N' said name_text, not Planet Cards 😭

but also

the key is wrong

[red flower]

yeah it should be a string

[manic rune]

why is it c_mercury instead of planet_name
-# its not even a string too

[lament agate]

im so confused

HOLD ON

[lament agate]

oh ok

[lament agate]

keep it name_text?

[manic rune]

yeah, type = "name_text" tells localize to grab the name only

[lament agate]

OH

fuck

im

stupid

hold on

[normal crest]

planet_name is also wrong since it removes the c_

[lament agate]

so which one is right

[manic rune]

right, didnt notice that

[red flower]

thats my code!

[lament agate]

so what do i put

[manic rune]

oh sh it is?

[manic rune]

name_text

[lament agate]

no

[red flower]

try "c_mercury" for now to see if it works, go step by step

[lament agate]

thekey

syre

[manic rune]

oh

[lament agate]

with ""

?

[manic rune]

yes

[red flower]

yeah i changed it for multi line names

[manic rune]

without the "" you are getting c_mercury the variable

[lament agate]

still nil

[manic rune]

which is always nil unless some mods have c_mercury as a global variable for some reason

🤔 whats the code now

just the loc_vars code

[manic rune]

o damn

[lament agate]

loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
            local planet_name = string.gsub(card.ability.extra.desired_planet, "c_", "")
            return { vars = { localize{ type = "text_name", set = "Planet", key = "c_mercury" } } }
        end,

[manic rune]

you are everywhere now 😭

[normal crest]

name_text

[red flower]

text_name???

[normal crest]

Not text_name

[lament agate]

fuck

fuck

FUCK

hold on

[manic rune]

😭

nxkoo calm down

[lament agate]

GHGEWHRGRDWICGUIYEGI

[red flower]

just copy the code i sent is not that hard

[lament agate]

I DID

😭

[manic rune]

how did you get name_text to text_name

🥀

[lament agate]

im

stupid

21

how to make joker that give every joker from my mod give +mult?

[manic rune]

wha

wdym...

[red flower]

like baseball card?

but for your jokers?

[dire marlin]

yea but the effect affected my mod jokers

[manic rune]

am i dumb for not understanding that

[lament agate]

imagine the modded joker gives xchips from morefluff

he's asking that

[manic rune]

oh so im actually dumb

gghh

[dire marlin]

sorry im not asking the question completely

[normal crest]

every joker has a reference to its mod

[lament agate]

this?

[red flower]

yes

[manic rune]

anyways, use context.other_joker

[normal crest]

It's either joker.mod or joker.config.center.mod to access it

[manic rune]

lemme go to balatro and check

[lament agate]

srock sold me fent

[red flower]

sounds like a hero to me

[manic rune]

yeah so

check for context.other_joker.config.center.mod.id

it should print out the mod id the joker came from

do note that vanilla jokers wont have this, so add nil checks too

[dire marlin]

so i need to put my mod prefix to it?

[manic rune]

if context.other_joker.config.center.mod and context.other_joker.config.center.mod.id == "your mod id" then
   --stuff
end

[manic rune]

nope, your mod id

[normal crest]

the id is the id you put in your metadata json

[normal crest]

[lament agate]

only that?

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[manic rune]

yes

[lament agate]

okay so

it didnt work

[lament agate]

[normal crest]

okay maybe that's too much

[red flower]

why does it include all of them

[lament agate]

a mod named cryptid

a mod named talisman

a mod named

yeah it didnt work

[manic rune]

add "Hold T to expand tool tips" like joyous

[lament agate]

im stealing the code

[manic rune]

doesnt your code

mean you have to use a planet card

[lament agate]

...

[manic rune]

its context.using_consumeable

[red flower]

that's victin's mod

[lament agate]

i should quit being a modder

i did mean them to use it

how the fuck did i forget about that

[manic rune]

i didnt know victin made joyousspring...

[lament agate]

OH WAIT, BESIDES MY STUPIDITY

[red flower]

i dont have an expand tooltips keybind

[manic rune]

wait really

[lament agate]

it didnt change when i get to Ante 2

[manic rune]

🤔

[red flower]

you can hide tooltips in the config

[manic rune]

we should have a context like context.end_of_ante...

[red flower]

i have a switch pages keybind and a related cards keybind

[manic rune]

oh

[summer furnace]

How could I make it, that if you have a certain joker, one single song plays the entire time, unless you sell it or remove it in some way?

    {
        key= 'totk_music', 
        path = 'totkmusic.ogg', 
        volume = 2, 
        select_music_track = function()
            if (totkjoker == true) then
                return true
            else return false
            end
        end,
        sync = {
            totk_ost_music = true
        }
    })```This is the code for the music, that I made with the docs and

```calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then        
            totkJoker = true,    
            return {
                chip_mod = card.ability.extra.chips,
                mult_mod = card.ability.extra.mult, 
                message = 'Willkommen zu den Tears of the Kingdom Highlights, mit mir FinusHD!',
                sound = 'FinusHD_totksfx'
            }
        end
    end,```this is the calculate code for the joker, I made. It seems to crash after the if statment for some reason :/

[red flower]

the reason it crashes is because you have an extra comma in that line

for your question i would check how jimball does it in cryptid

[summer furnace]

Oh okay, never played cryptid so I'll download it real quick lmao

[primal robin]

I do believe cryptid checks every frame is jimball present

[normal crest]

select music track is meant to return a number

higher number = higher priority

[summer furnace]

ooooh, okay that makes sense

[normal crest]

Also the totkjoker variable is not needed

[summer furnace]

Why?

[normal crest]

Inside select_music_track you can check if next(SMODS.find_card('j_prefix_key')) then return 10000 end

10000 is just an arbitrary number I picked

[summer furnace]

ooooh, okay thx!

Will I then need to play that music, or will it play automaticly?

[lament agate]

how do you word this better

[normal crest]

It'll play automatically if the priority returned is higher than every other music

[summer furnace]

oooh, okay I get it now! Thank you!

[dire marlin]

my game crashed when i add vanilla joker, any help?

[normal crest]

Cus vanilla jokers don't have mod defined in them

[dire marlin]

how to fix it?

[normal crest]

(context.other_joker.config.center.mod or {}).id

[summer furnace]

So I have this code here: SMODS.Sound( { key= 'totk_music', path = 'totkmusic.ogg', volume = 2, select_music_track = function() if next(SMODS.find_card(j_FinusHD_totk)) then return 10000000 end end })

But the Balatro music still plays :/

[red flower]

"j_FinusHD_totk" in quotes

[summer furnace]

Ooooh yeah right 💀

now it is in quotes, but still does not work? Do I need to wait until the balatro music stops, and if yes how could I stop it from playing?

[normal crest]

you shouldn't need to wait, it's likely smt else is wrong

[normal crest]

this should make it so it plays when you have the joker

[dire marlin]

like this?

[pastel remnant]

anyone know a good way to get the number of unique cards in the deck?

[summer furnace]

Huh, interesting

[normal crest]

try making the key music_totk

[summer furnace]

now it works thanks!!!!

[red flower]

wdym by unique

[pastel remnant]

like either different suit or rank

[dire marlin]

it won't work

[normal crest]

What's the issue

[dire marlin]

the joker didnt giving the mult

[red flower]

you would have to iterate through the deck and count each suit and rank combination and then check all the ones that are at 1

[normal crest]

Hmm, maybe wrong context

[pastel remnant]

well I think not at 0 is more like what I want maybe I need to reword it then

uh how would i get the cards in the deck?

[normal crest]

Check what context baseball card uses

Not at my pc rn

[red flower]

G.playing_cards is the full deck G.deck.cards are the ones still in deck and not in hand/discard

[dire marlin]

SMODS.Joker {
    key = "baseball",
    blueprint_compat = true,
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 8,
    pos = { x = 6, y = 14 },
    config = { extra = { xmult = 1.5 } },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xmult } }
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.other_joker and (context.other_joker.config.center.rarity == 2 or context.other_joker.config.center.rarity == "Uncommon") then
            return {
                xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
            }
        end
    end,
}```

[red flower]

it is context.other_joker

[normal crest]

theeeen maybe you put the mod id wrong?

Or bepis lied and it's not config.center.mod

But I trust bepis with my life

[pastel remnant]

thank you do you know what way the info gets given when I use that so I can work out how to loop through it?

[dire marlin]

it is my mod id

[red flower]

they're an array of cards

[dire marlin]

this one worked but crashed my game when adding vanilla joker

[normal crest]

can you send your metadata json file

[red flower]

one uses - and the other _

the one that worked used - in the mod id

[normal crest]

Oh yeah you put different mod ids

[dire marlin]

oh yeah another typo

mb

oh yeah it worked

love yall

[twin kayak]

I need help with this code

it should make a joker gain 1.1x mult when a hand is played

[manic rune]

seems like a partner thing, which i dont know about rn

sorri

[stiff quiver]

why are the played cards getting losing the debuff texture?

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.before then
      if pseudorandom("filter",1,2) == 1 then
        card:set_debuff(true)
        return {message = "Filtered!"}
      end
    end
    if context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.play and context.other_card == card then
      return {repetitions = 1}
    end
    if context.retrigger_joker_check and not context.retrigger_joker and context.other_card == card then
        return {repetitions = 1, message = "Again!"}
    end
  end

[normal crest]

should use SMODS.debuff_card instead

[stiff quiver]

i'll try that

[normal crest]

it's in the utility functions section of the wiki

[twin kayak]

why isn't the joker scoring the x_mult

SMODS.Joker {
key = 'happi',
loc_txt = {
name = '{E:1}happi boi',
text = {
"Gains {C:white,X:chips}X#2#{} Chips",
"per played hand",
"{C:inactive}(Currently {C:white,X:chips}X#1#{C:inactive} Chips)"
}
},
config = { extra = { x_chips = 1, x_chips_gain = .1 } },
rarity = 2,
atlas = 'jester',
pos = { x = 1, y = 0 },
cost = 5,
loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
return { vars = { card.ability.extra.x_chips, card.ability.extra.x_chips_gain } }
end,
calculate = function(self, card, context)
if context.joker_main then
return {
x_chips_mod = card.ability.extra.x_chips,
message = localize { type = 'variable', key = 'x_chips', vars = { card.ability.extra.x_chips } }
}
end
if context.before and not context.blueprint then
card.ability.extra.x_chips = card.ability.extra.x_chips + card.ability.extra.x_chips_gain
return {
message = 'Upgraded!',
colour = G.C.CHIPS,
card = card
}
end
end
}

[normal crest]

inside the first return only put x_chips = card.ability.extra.x_chips

[manic rune]

SMODS.Joker {
    key = 'happi',
    loc_txt = {
        name = '{E:1}happi boi',
        text = {
            "Gains {C:white,X:chips}X#2#{} Chips",
            "per played hand",

        }
    },
    config = { extra = { x_chips = 1, x_chips_gain = .1 } },
    rarity = 2,
    atlas = 'jester',
    pos = { x = 1, y = 0 },
    cost = 5,
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)

    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            return {
                xchips = card.ability.extra.x_chips
            }
        end
        if context.before and not context.blueprint then
            card.ability.extra.x_chips = card.ability.extra.x_chips + card.ability.extra.x_chips_gain

                colour = G.C.CHIPS,
                card = card
            }
        end
    end
} 

[twin kayak]

ok

[manic rune]

try this instead, maybe the problem is that x_chips_mod doesnt exist

[twin kayak]

oh

one sec

[normal crest]

also card = card is not needed

[twin kayak]

still not working

[manic rune]

whats your smods version

it should work, weird

[stiff quiver]

now the cards stay debuff after round, would adding this fix that?

if context.end_of_round then
   SMODS.debuff_card(card,false,"filter")
end

[manic rune]

...does that even run when the card is debuffed

[normal crest]

yeah it won't run if it's debuffed

[manic rune]

id suggest hooking to end_round() instead

[hidden sable]

i just want to know where in the localization is it looking

[normal crest]

Look where it is in the vanilla localization files

[hidden sable]

true

[stiff quiver]

could i get help with that, im not 100% sure what i have to do to do that

[manic rune]

local er_ref = end_round
function end_round()
   er_ref()
   for _,v in ipairs(G.playing_cards) do
   SMODS.debuff_card(v,false,"fliter")
   end
   --do the same for G.jokers.cards
end

[snow vale]

how can i make a blind that changes the suit it debuffs every hand?

[stiff quiver]

it worked and i think i now understand better hooks

[stiff quiver]

im not completely sure but my guess is something like the base game ones but with a calculate that changes its suit. you can see the base game ones here https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/fbfeb4d2e14111c9c47706f71cc25c7b50e021c9/src/blinds.lua

[split sleet]

I am currently making a mod which adds new face cards to the game. I have one here, the Fool, which goes above a ten, and behind another new face card. Outside of this, what else should I do to enforce the new order of cards?

    hc_atlas = 'RF_Cards_hc',
    lc_atlas = 'RF_Cards',
    
    
    hidden = true,

    key = 'Fool',
    card_key = 'F',
    face_nominal = 0.1
    face = true
    pos = { x = 0 },
    nominal = 1,
    strength_effect = {
            fixed = 1,
            random = false,
            ignore = false
        },
    next = {'P', 'Tr', 'M' },
    
    RF_prev= { '10' },
    
    shorthand = 'F',
    
    in_pool = RF_rankCheck,
} ```
```function init_prev_rank_data()
    print("Initialize Remaining Previous Rank Data")
    for _, rank in pairs(SMODS.Ranks) do
        
        --Initialize
        --In case the rank table does not have prev existed
        --Base rank and ROYAL FAM one has them defined manually by default
        if not rank.RF_prev then
            rank.RF_prev= {}
        end
        
        next_rank_list = rank.next
        
        for i=1, #next_rank_list do
            local next_rank = SMODS.Ranks[next_rank_list[i]]
            local RF_prev = next_rank.RF_prev or {}
            
            if not table_has_value(RF_prev, rank.key) then
                table.insert(RF_prev, rank.key)
                next_rank.RF_prev = RF_prev
            end
        end
    end
end

function getPoolRankFlagEnable(rank)
    return (G.GAME and G.GAME.pool_flags[rank] or false)
end




local function RF_rankCheck(self, args)
    if args and args.initial_deck then
        return false
    end
    
    return getPoolRankFlagEnable(self.key)
end



SMODS.Ranks['T'].strength_effect = {
            fixed = T,
            random = false,
            ignore = false
        }
SMODS.Ranks['T'].next = {'F', 'P', 'Tr'}```

This is what I have so far, but do I need some type of override as well?

[red flower]

this doesnt seem correct

[gilded blaze]

[red flower]

it doesnt lag too much so that seems good

at least not more than normal i mean

[gilded blaze]

there's a temporary backward compat I think

already commited

does that not work on the display

[red flower]

im trying to use the new function, i just put the wrong value there i think

[gilded blaze]

oof

[red flower]

ok its fine now and it doesnt lag too much

so im just pushing this

someone else with a worse pc can optimize jokerdisplay

[gilded blaze]

my Mac was never meant to handle JokerDisplay in the first place

3 fps

probably going down to 1

should there be an option

to only update the display when necessary instead of the standard 10 fps

[snow vale]

yeah, but how can i change the debuffed suit every hand?

[daring fern]

local suit = pseudorandom_element(SMODS.Suits, "seed")

[snow vale]

and how do i update it?

[red flower]

i mean, the problem is that i cant get a "when necessary" that's why i dont use that lmao

[snow vale]

i mean, that's just a variable, right?

[stiff quiver]

i dont know how the variable for the blind thing is called, but it would be what somethingcom said in a context, probably context.after i think

[hidden sable]

how can i check how many discards the player had at the end of the round

[snow vale]

this is what i have

[gilded blaze]

there are multiple options so you could make a cycle
Update display: 10fps, when clicking, when hand is played, 1fps

[stiff quiver]

local suit would have to be changed to blind.debuffed.suit i think

[snow vale]

oh ok

[red flower]

yeah maybe when i get the motivation to work on it again

[gilded blaze]

it's ok, no rush

[wind steppe]

how do i make the game ignore if you have enough money to buy something?

[red flower]

hook G.FUNCS.can_buy

[wind steppe]

id assume that returns a boolean?

[red flower]

you'd assume wrong

it changes the button itself

[wind steppe]

wait what do i do then

cant find the function in the code

[gilded blaze]

it's in functions/button_callbacks.lua

e.config.button is the callback function pressing the button would do

setting it to nil is the same as making the button do nothing

[hidden sable]

how would a make a thing where theres a 1 in 8 chance to make an item in the shop free

any item can be a voucher, joker, booster

actually scratch vouchers

seems too op

[stiff quiver]

try blind.ability.debuffed.suit? if not no idea what the name of the variable is

[snow vale]

ok ill try

[hidden sable]

anyone?

isnt there a coupon thing

for boosters and jokers

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hidden sable]

how can i activate it for a random card in shop

like boosters plus top region

[snow vale]

neither

[daring fern]

Try self.debuff.suit

[snow vale]

ok

[stiff quiver]

oh yeah, i forget self is a thing

[snow vale]

it wont crash now, but the debuffed suit doesnt changes

[stiff quiver]

try making it print the suit to see if it changes?

[snow vale]

ok

[daring fern]

if context.starting_shop then
    for k, area in pairs({G.shop_jokers, G.shop_booster}) do
        for k, v in pairs(area.cards) do
            if pseudorandom("seed") < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 8 then
                v.ability.couponed = true
            end
        end
    end
end
```?

[snow vale]

this is what it prints :|

[tawdry oriole]

the overlay menu is used for full-screen ui but is there anything i could use for a smaller portion of the screen?

i used this

imma try smthing

[stiff quiver]

print self.debuff.suit instead cause i dont think thats what you want to see

[red flower]

i dont think so, you need to make it yourself

[tawdry oriole]

alright

[snow vale]

the print works fine, but the debuffed wont change

[hidden sable]

doesnt seem to be working (ignore the partner stuff)

[stiff quiver]

no idea then, sorry

[snow vale]

wait

if i restart run

the debuffed does change

[daring fern]

Is this in context.starting_shop?

[hidden sable]

yes

[pure salmon]

how do i modify a custom consumables spawn rate in the shop (this is for a voucher)

[stiff quiver]

then maybe use SMODS.recalc_debuff(card) on all cards

[gilded blaze]

you forgot to do v:set_cost()

[hidden sable]

couponed should work tho

[snow vale]

in the calculate?

[stiff quiver]

yeah, after changing the suit

[snow vale]

but what card am i gonna refer?

[hidden sable]

ill try this, how does it work

?

[gilded blaze]

call v:set_cost() after setting v.ability.couponed to true

[stiff quiver]

would be something like this i think ```lua
for _,playing_card in ipairs(G.deck) do
SMODS.recalc_debuff(playing_card)
end

[snow vale]

not working 😔

[stiff quiver]

can someone smarter than me help?

[snow vale]

wait, maybe using the api method for recalc_debuff?
