[signal lotus]

maybe I will find someone better than this to help work on the mod with me

[vast night]

thx

[vast night]

what do you need help w

[signal lotus]

I have a ton of ideas but some are too hard to implement for me

esp these

[vast night]

theres already n2 in my mod and n1 also aint that hard

[signal lotus]

I knoq n2 is a common idea

but i cant imploement it on my own

[vast night]

you just divide G.GAME.blind.chips by 100, floor it and add it to conf

[signal lotus]

also not that hard for you is almost impossible for me

[signal lotus]

like I have no idea what this means

this is the most complicated thing ive made

[vast night]

you learn by doing

if you always do one thing a bit more complicated you learn much more than by just reading

[gilded blaze]

if context.before and context.main_eval then
    card.ability.extra.card_list = {}
    card.ability.extra.suit_list = {}
    local suits = {}
    for _, v in pairs(SMODS.Suits) do
        suits[#suits+1] = tostring(v.key)
    end
    for i = 1, #context.scoring_hand do
        for _, suit in ipairs(suits) do
            if context.scoring_hand[i]:is_suit(suit) and not card.ability.extra.suit_list[suit] then
                table.insert(card.ability.extra.card_list, context.scoring_hand[i])
                card.ability.extra.suit_list[suit] = true
                break
            end
        end
    end
end
if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
    for _, _card in ipairs(card.ability.extra.card_list) do
        if context.other_card == _card then
            return {
                x_mult = card.ability.extra.xmult
            }
        end
    end
end

[vast night]

and second

[signal lotus]

second what

[fallow breach]

could someone walk me through adding the chance effect towards the end

i'm copying gros michel's code for it but i'm not sure how i would make it effect every joker + consumables

[red flower]

SMODS.destroy_cards(G.jokers.cards)
SMODS.destroy_cards(G.consumeables.cards)

[tepid crow]

that's a thing??

[red flower]

yes

[fallow breach]

where would those go

[red flower]

instead of that whole event

[tepid crow]

oh it got added a month ago

actually does that account for eternals? 🤔

[red flower]

hmm i dont think so

[tepid crow]

yeah I don't think so either

[fallow breach]

like this?

[red flower]

yes

[gilded blaze]

the code suggests SMODS.destroy_cards mainly targets playing cards

[red flower]

nah it's for any card

it does extra stuff for playing cards

[gilded blaze]

I mean

the eternal thingy

[red flower]

there's no function that accounts for eternal afaik, everything checks before destruction so it follows what the game usually does

although i will pr an eternal check and see what eremel thinks

and also the ability to make it immediate instead of an event which i need

[gilded blaze]

lmao

[tight hull]

Nice! sorry I couldnt help you

[gilded blaze]

yea, calling SMODS.destroy_cards(G.jokers.cards) definitely crashes the game

[red flower]

weird

can you send the full log

[formal parrot]

Hello devs

[rancid flare]

Is there a way to do like SMODS and add thing to help do repetitive code like we do with SMODS.Joker an all the other ?

[red flower]

you mean make functions? yes

[gilded blaze]

this

should the for loop run from #cards to 1 instead

[rancid flare]

oh okay i understand how there made now

[red flower]

i dont see why, the destruction is done in an event

[fallow breach]

it's telling me that odds is a nil value even though i set in the config

[idle plaza]

What did you set it to and how did you use it?

[gilded blaze]

but that's the cause of the crash

reverting the direction fixes it

[red flower]

well who am i to disagree with results

[empty solstice]

No, you definitely did help. You may have not seen it through to the end, but you at least started me in the right direction, and that was honestly half the battle.

[idle plaza]

Could you show the whole context function? Everything here looks fine so the actual issue might be something else.

[idle plaza]

This is (presumably) a separate, unrelated issue, but your loc_vars function should use (G.GAME and G.GAME.probabilities.normal or 1) instead.

If this Joker is viewed in the collection from the main menu, G.GAME won't exist, and that'll cause its own crash.

[tight hull]

Glad to hear that, what was the problem if I may ask?

[red flower]

just tested it and it worked fine for me

might be some mod messing with it

[next timber]

why tf is the line Image depths = prophecy.z; in my shader giving me 4 entire errors?

ERROR 'z' : vector swizzle selection out of range
ERROR 'sampler2D' : sampler/image types can only be used in uniform variables or function parameters: depths
ERROR '=' :  cannot convert from ' temp float' to ' temp sampler2D'
ERROR: '' : compilation terminated

prophecy is the name of the shader, and i'm setting an image as the 3rd item in the ARGS.send_to_shader

so prophecy.z should be the image, correct?

[red flower]

G.GAME does exist

[gilded blaze]

I'm guessing Nopeus' fast forward

[polar parrot]

anyone know how the joker art thing works? like what code chooses where the joker is on the .png file

[red flower]

oh yeah if it does something with events it might be

[empty solstice]

I made a spelling error when I switched to your template, then I had to move everything around to get the correct cards to show in the correct areas

[red flower]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Atlas#applying-textures-to-cards

[idle plaza]

Okay, the cause is that your Joker is running the destruction check outside of a specified context, so it's running it in all contexts.

Merge that section, and the one above, into one end_of_round and game_over == false check. Within, have a single pseudorandom check with the destruction stuff, then put the upgrade stuff in an else.

As in (pseudocode because quicker to type):

if end of round and game over == false then
    if pseudorandom < probabiilties.normal / odds then
        destroy the stuff
    else
        upgrade
    end
end

Just cut/paste the actual code into the appropriate places.

[fallow breach]

thank you i did figure that out

there would also have to be and not context.blueprint and not context.repetition right

[tight hull]

not that bad of an error to be honest

but it would take me a long time to figure it out anyways

[gilded blaze]

alr PR opened

[faint yacht]

Besides, the new stable release will include changes to probability stuff. 😅

[next timber]

bu mp

[serene granite]

heyy quick question is there a way to detect if a card is not being scored, i want to make a simple joker that destroys all cards that are scored, not the ones that arent scored, any advice?

[next timber]

you can just loop through the scoring_hand

context.scoring_hand, i believe?

[idle plaza]

Yes.

[red flower]

context.destroying_cards only goes through scored cards iirc

[vast bough]

many ways to do this, could even do context individual

 if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
                return {
                    func = function()
                    context.other_card:start_dissolve()
                    return true
                end,
                    message = "Destroyed!"
                }
        end

[red flower]

no

dont destroy cards like that

use this during scoring

[serene granite]

ok i will try that, thank you !

[idle plaza]

The game will already run your function once for each card in hand when your code is within the destroy_card context.

context.destroy_card is also a card object, you can directly check its base.nominal.

[brittle tide]

That worked thank you so much!

[vast night]

This is more of a random questioon, because I wondered. What does stop_use() do?

And this is not such a random question: How can i make a text ui object be dynamic/changeable/always correspond to a variable

And the third one

how do i add that hover animation to text? (nvm i think i found it on the wiki)

thats all

[red flower]

afaik it stops the buttons from working while doing stuff like using a consumable

[vast night]

ok

[red flower]

ref_value and ref_table

[vast night]

i completely forgot abt that

does it updfate continuously

[red flower]

yes

[vast night]

btw tysm for helping us all with mmodding you are awesome

[modern kindle]

Good afternoon chat

N and smt my goats

[floral narwhal]

How can I add localization to cards? Like 2 of hearts : +2 chips. How can I add text to this?

[red flower]

what do you want to add specifically?

[floral narwhal]

I wanna add new mechanic and new value so I've to show it like chips

[red flower]

look at how smods adds the perma bonus text https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/blob/b1179a49b8d230a147037bea848daca774f12f16/localization/en-us.lua#L68

[floral narwhal]

How can I call it in my code?

[red flower]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/blob/b1179a49b8d230a147037bea848daca774f12f16/src/game_object.lua#L3049

[floral narwhal]

K thanks

[frigid perch]

Is there a way to make the name of a Joker toggle-able?
I have 2 packs, but the same joker is named different things in each pack, and their textures are different. I wanna be able to turn one off so I can keep the other, without just disabling the pack with the name I don't want entirely

[red flower]

yes, in loc_vars return a key to a different localization entry

[modern kindle]

damn i was gonna be much dumber and use find_mod to disable

N is smarter

[red flower]

I was just answering the question directly but if they're two different mods disabling might just be easier

[vast night]

hi again!
can someone explain to me why the text is not centered?
(fixcrow is just a function that puts the item in a G.UIT.R node so it correctly displays)

                -- ui definition
                G.fates_wait_for_poll = UIBox {
                    definition = {
                        n = G.UIT.ROOT,
                        config = { r = 0.1, minw = 8, minh = 6, align = 'tm', padding = 0.2, colour = G.C.BLACK },
                        nodes = {
                            {
                                n = G.UIT.C,
                                config = { },
                                nodes = {
                                    fixcrow({ n = G.UIT.T, config = { text = 'Your fate is in their hands!', colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_LIGHT, scale = 0.5, padding = 0.15, align = 'cm' } }),
                                    fixcrow({ n = G.UIT.T, config = { text = '60s', colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_LIGHT, scale = 0.7, padding = 0.15, align = 'cm' } }),
                                    fixcrow({ n = G.UIT.C, config = { minw = 7.85, minh = 1, colour = G.C.UI.BACKGROUND_INACTIVE, padding = 0.15, align = 'tm', r = 0.1 }, nodes = {
                                        fixcrow({ n = G.UIT.T, config = { text = FATES.Options[1].text, colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_LIGHT, scale = 0.4 } }),
                                        fixcrow({ n = G.UIT.T, config = { text = FATES.Options[2].text, colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_LIGHT, scale = 0.4 } })
                                    } })
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    },
                    config = { align = 'bm', offset = { x = 0, y = G.ROOM.T.y + 19 }, major = G.hand, bond = 'Weak' }
                }

[red flower]

you might need the column and the row to also be cm-aligned

[vast night]

oooh that makes sense

while im at it: i forgot how to use ref_table and ref_value. could you help me 😭

[frigid perch]

And that's with Malverk?

[red flower]

ah if it's for a texture pack i have no idea

[frigid perch]

I can do the texture pack just fine, like, I know how to disable the texture on its own

It's just the name to go along with it is all

[red flower]

{ n = G.UIT.T, config = { ref_table = G.GAME, ref_value = "your_variable" } }

this will use the text in G.GAME.your_variable

[vast night]

do you know by any chance how i could make it a 60 second timer?

i would try elsewise

but if theres already a templatge for that im happy enough :)))

[red flower]

i think there's a love2d function for that
but you can use G.TIMERS.REAL and keep track of the initial time + 60

(i dont think its in seconds tho)

[vast night]

good point

lemme checfk

[tepid crow]

pretty sure it is in seconds is it not?

[vast night]

its float seconds

[vast night]

yea just not rounded

[red flower]

perfect then

[tight hull]

hi, is it possible to add buttons here? (I want user to have a choice between replacing tarot cards, planet cards, or both)

[red flower]

yes
https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/a2630a0a7873651ec8280a97ac8652988c2e3cc6/src/mod_info.lua#L14

i recommend doing a config tab for options tho

[tight hull]

what does that mean?

[red flower]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Mod-functions#modconfig_tab

[tight hull]

so instead of it being there its in another tab?

is it easier to do?

[red flower]

yeah, mostly for consistency with other mods

both are the same difficulty although you would need to use the config file described there for both

[tight hull]

I will try to do that then

[vale quarry]

Hello, how does one write a multiline pattern in a lovely patch ?

[red flower]

'''
line1
line2
'''

[vale quarry]

Thx !

[modern kindle]

alright there tough guy, how do you do 1 line or 3 lines then huh

[clever rose]

Is there a way to get this to only activate if I play a mercury card, as it currently activates on any planet card? and also is it possible to fix this visual bug when it activates or not?

[red flower]

'''
line1
line2
line3
'''

i dont know how to do 1

[red flower]

for the visual bug try returning return { level_up = 5, level_up_hand = 'Pair' } instead of level_up_hand()

for mercury context.consumeable.config.center.key == "c_mercury"

[wind steppe]

how would i check if the player has scored higher than vanilla naneinf in an unlock condition? (talisman is required)

[tight hull]

could you drop an example code? I understand a part of it but for example what do I put inside of these (bcs Im 87% sure that it wont work unless I put something there)

[clever rose]

Thanks!

[red flower]

it's in the link i sent earlier too

[tight hull]

oh ok

yea

sry

[red flower]

no worries

[brittle tide]

for enabling joker retriggers do you place it inside of the joker you want to be able to retrigger other jokers or do you place it at the bottom of the overall code?

[modern kindle]

freak youre so good

[red flower]

anywhere else in the overall code yeah

[brittle tide]

alr cool

[tight hull]

where can I find "Building a UI" page?

Im blind and cant find it anywhere

wait i think i found it

[uncut cloud]

alright yall im dealing with a few issues here while trying to code in a timer
talked about this a while ago, went with N's recommendation of a global table and TimerGuwbi.seconds seems to be working however not the display of the dynamic text
can anyone tell me if im doing something wrong here?

[next timber]

is there a way to make edition shaders stack on top of a joker's existing shaders instead of replacing them? for some reason foil seems to do this but holo, polychrome and negative all remove the custom shader

[red flower]

ref_value = "seconds"

[uncut cloud]

AH

i see

[next timber]

i'm applying the shader with

draw = function(self, card, layer)
  G.SHADERS["rendom_prophecy"]:send("mask_texture",REND.prophecy_image)
  card.children.center:draw_shader("rendom_prophecy",nil,card.ARGS.send_to_shader)

[tight hull]

Whats the problem? it doesnt do anythingSMODS.current_mod.config_tab = function() return {n = G.UIT.ROOT, config = { {n = G.UIT.C, config = {align = "cm", padding = 0.1}, nodes = { {n = G.UIT.T, config = {text = "Config", colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_LIGHT, scale = 0.5}} -- config values here, see 'Building a UI' page }} }, nodes = { -- work your UI wizardry here, see 'Building a UI' page }} end

[red flower]

the nodes need to be inside nodes not inside config

[tight hull]

so how do I make the config tab?

[red flower]

like you posted

[tight hull]

ohhh

[red flower]

i mean like this goes there

[tight hull]

    return {n = G.UIT.ROOT, config = {
        -- config values here, see 'Building a UI' page
    }}
    }, nodes = {
        {n = G.UIT.C, config = {align = "cm", padding = 0.1}, nodes = {
            {n = G.UIT.T, config = {text = "Config", colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_LIGHT, scale = 0.5}}
        -- work your UI wizardry here, see 'Building a UI' page
    }}
end```

like this?

[red flower]

yeah

[tight hull]

so in config I should put the config...

[midnight coyote]

how do i get the current chip val of a card

[red flower]

no, it's a bit confusing but in config you put the configuration of the root node, like the color or the size

[vast night]

Hey Im back with another dumb question. Why tf is random here always picking first 19 and then 29???? i just dont understand it

local function choice(array)
    local i = math.random(#array)
    print(#array)
    print(i)
    print(array[i])
    return array[i]
end

[tight hull]

...

[red flower]

:get_chip_bonus() iirc

[stiff locust]

what's the balatro lua version

[red flower]

5.1

[midnight coyote]

don’t use math.random

[stiff locust]

cool great thanks

[midnight coyote]

use pseudorandom instead

[stiff locust]

so the % should work

[vast night]

its not in a calculate function

[midnight coyote]

doesn’t matter

do not use math.random

[vast night]

lemme try

[tight hull]

what else do I need to put in the code for the node to show up?

[red flower]

there you're only building the UI, the changes to your mod's config are done through buttons and stuff

[red flower]

it should show up if it's written correctly, let me check

[tight hull]

thats what I ment, there are too many things named config lol

[vast night]

like dis

math.floor(pseudorandom() * #array)

i forgor to put the id

[vast night]

tysm

[next timber]

bump

[red flower]

like this

SMODS.current_mod.config_tab = function()

        nodes = {

                }
            }
        }
    }
end

[tight hull]

thnx

it still doesnt show up

shouldnt I put something in the main .lua file to register the config.lua?

or does it just work automaticly

[red flower]

idk works for me

[red flower]

config.lua is where the configuration table is, not the UI

[tight hull]

uh

[red flower]

like this

[tight hull]

this should show up here?

[red flower]

yes

[tight hull]

so in which file should i put this?

[red flower]

and this should be in main.lua or any file loaded through SMODS.load_file

oh wait i misread

ignore the first message :3

[tight hull]

sure

[tight hull]

makes sense now

[next timber]

bump 2 electric boogaloo

[tight hull]

so the code should look smth like this?

function SMODS.INIT.ReZeroTarot()

    local rezerotarot = SMODS.findModByID("ReZeroTarot")
    
    local sprite_trt = SMODS.Sprite:new("Tarot", rezerotarot.path, Filename, 71, 95, "asset_atli")

                }
            }
        }
    }
end

it still doesnt work but it doesnt crash

[red flower]

what version of smods do you have

[tight hull]

the newest one (i think)

I started moding balatro 2 days ago

idk if it got updated since then

[red flower]

are you making a texture pack?

[tight hull]

yes

[vast night]

i hope this is the last question: where in the fricking smods wiki can i find all colors in the g.c table

[red flower]

I recommend using Malverk then lol

[red flower]

text stylings

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Text-Styling#named-colours-dictionary-gargsloc_colours

[vast night]

so like always in the most ovbvious place i dont search

[red flower]

it's not all the G.C colors tho, only the ones in LOC_COLOURS

but should be most of them

[inner folio]

Why my card back texture always become like this ?

[vast night]

wrong dimesnions

[tight hull]

you put 1x in 2x?

[next timber]

bumppp

[tight hull]

this seems to be VERY useful, however I want to challenge myself a bit (even tho I ask for help in everything) because its fun

[tight hull]

I dont even think I will publish the mod bcs that was not the point of it, the point is that I just wanted to lern balatro modding becouse Im rly bored

[red flower]

more than challenging yourself the syntax you're using is very old

and it might be causing problems

[tight hull]

I will try to change it then

thnx

[final jewel]

Guys when I create the joker from the video with the joker from the code, I can freely move the joker idk why but how can I solve this issue ?

[tight hull]

is this better?

[red flower]

replace all of this for SMODS.add_card{key = "j_giga_tlei", edition = "e_negative"}

[final jewel]

okok

[chrome widget]

    key = miracle_center,
    front = pseudorandom_element(filtered_cards, pseudoseed('csau_miracle_card')),
    skip_materialize = true,
})```

Am I doing something wrong with trying to create an enhanced card here? the front seems to apply correctly, but passing in the gold key (`m_gold`) is still giving me unenhanced cards

[final jewel]

thx it work

[red flower]

set = "Base", enhancement = "m_gold"

or set = "Playing Card" or set = "Enhanced"

[chrome widget]

that's.... strange

Why would I not just be able to pass in the enhancement key as the center key?

[red flower]

because there was already an enhancement field so i didnt change that idk

[tight hull]

It works!

and looks a lot cleaner

thnx

[next timber]

bump.. please im getting desperate here ive been trying to make this joker look good all day i cant have it be ruined by editions..

[next timber]

shit replied to wrong message, heres a direct reply

[tight hull]

YOO!

[tight hull]

I have no idea how but you were right!

what does this star mean?

[glad osprey]

config tab
look inside
config

[red flower]

it's a cog, means that it has a config

[mild grove]

For some reason the Bonus cards aren't appearing in the deck

[tight hull]

what else did you expect?

[glad osprey]

photochad

[tight hull]

makes sense

[tight hull]

makes sense

[red flower]

G.playing_card = (G.playing_card and G.playing_card + 1) or 1
bonus_card.playing_card = G.playing_card
table.insert(G.playing_cards, bonus_card)

[tight hull]

it works, im going to sleep. Good Night everyone 👋

[mild grove]

Thank you

[next timber]

bumppppppppp

[wet chasm]

Are there any requirements to start coding, I assume steam modded

[red flower]

check the pinned thread in #⚙・modding-general

[red flower]

i would help if i knew anything about shaders sorry 😞

[wet chasm]

Thanks!

[vast night]

I lied. This wasnt my last question. Why tf is this event getting stuck and not printing "I'm on 4" and "I'm on 5" (code directly taken from the cash out button, just replacing the cash out screen with my custom screen

        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            trigger = 'immediate',
            func = function()
                print('I\'m on 4')
                if G.fates_wait_for_poll then
                    print('I\'m on 5')
                    G.fates_wait_for_poll:remove()
                    G.fates_wait_for_poll = nil
                end
                G.GAME.current_round.jokers_purchased = 0
                G.GAME.current_round.discards_left = math.max(0,
                    G.GAME.round_resets.discards + G.GAME.round_bonus.discards)
                G.GAME.current_round.hands_left = (math.max(1, G.GAME.round_resets.hands + G.GAME.round_bonus.next_hands))
                G.STATE = G.STATES.SHOP
                G.GAME.shop_free = nil
                G.GAME.shop_d6ed = nil
                G.STATE_COMPLETE = false
                return true
            end
        }))
    end

[red flower]

i dont see anything wrong there, is it not adding the event to the queue maybe?

[vast night]

no it just blocks the queue it seems (stays 9)

how do i see the event queue

[red flower]

no idea

[sonic cedar]

would i say if v:is_suit in a for loop if im checking for a suit?

[vast night]

card:is_suit

[red flower]

whatever you named the value in the pair

[mild fractal]

apologies if i'm being stupid i'm very new to this
i'm trying to check for a king being destroyed and thought
" if context.remove_playing_cards and not context.blueprint and
context.other_card:get_id() == 13 then"

would work but it isnt lmao

[vast night]

apparently this event is firing the whole time

        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            func = function()
                print('Event Dolla Dolla')
                G.GAME.previous_round.dollars = G.GAME.dollars
                return true
            end
        }))

[red flower]

weird, the return true should stop it

[vast night]

try doing print statements to see where it fails or maybe N' is smarter

[vast night]

imma remove the event and see

[red flower]

there's no context.other_card

[mild fractal]

ah okay ty

[vast night]

other events are also spamming

[mild fractal]

i just pulled it from vanillaremade's baron code so i thought it would work lmao

[vast night]

like this one in another function

                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    trigger = 'immediate',
                    func = function()
                        print('Event Alignment Offset')
                        if G.fates_wait_for_poll.alignment.offset.y ~= -7.8 then
                            G.fates_wait_for_poll.alignment.offset.y = -7.8
                        end
                    end
                }))

[vast bough]

does anybody have some good examples of jokers with variables or effects that happen at the end of each hand

[red flower]

for this context you need to loop through context.removed

[vast bough]

effects like suit changes, rank changes, etc.

[vast night]

look at how castle does it

[red flower]

maybe its immediate that's not working

[primal robin]

-- Code to debug event queue
local callstep = 0
function printCallerInfo()
    -- Get debug info for the caller of the function that called printCallerInfo
    local info = debug.getinfo(3, "Sl")
    callstep = callstep + 1
    if info then
        print("[" .. callstep .. "] " .. (info.short_src or "???") .. ":" .. (info.currentline or "unknown"))
    else
        print("Caller information not available")
    end
end
local emae = EventManager.add_event
function EventManager:add_event(x, y, z)
    printCallerInfo()
    return emae(self, x, y, z)
end

[vast bough]

castle changes at the end of round, not hand

[mild fractal]

gahhh i still have to much to learn 😭

[vast night]

you can change context

[vast bough]

yeah but that is not the idea of why i would want it, i just would prefer specific examples

like if a mod has a joker that does something similar at the end of hands

[vast night]

it fixed itself 💀
the second problem was that that alignment offset event didnt return true

[mint kettle]

Hi, is it difficult to mod Balatro to change in-game sounds?

[pastel torrent]

method to detect if face card is played?

[vast night]

card:is_face()

[pastel torrent]

thx

[vast night]

probably not ig but i've never done that

[pastel torrent]

also I passed and got accepted into college

hooray

[chrome widget]

Not in the slightest

Declare an SMODS.Sound with no prefix settings and a key matching a vanilla sound

It'll overwrite it afaik

(you can do similar things with shaders)

[mint kettle]

I want to add the binding of isaac tarot narrator when you use a tarot card

[vast bough]

THE FOOOOL

[mint kettle]

WHEEL OF FORTUNEEEEEE

[paper elbow]

I followed the guide to install Lovely Injector and SMODS and it doesn't appear to be working. What do I need to look for troubleshootingwise?

[mint kettle]

And when wheel of fortune fails: wheel of...fortune?

[vast bough]

you could also add sound bites for all the aces because those are narrated too lol

[red flower]

does it open the console alongside the game?

[paper elbow]

Nope.

[vast bough]

like if you play flush five with only aces it would do the sound bite for the ace

[red flower]

can I see your balatro folder

[paper elbow]

One sec

[formal quest]

How can I check when any listed probability happens?

[mint kettle]

Ohh you are right, but,,,i don´t know anything about modding

[red flower]

You would need to wait for the next smods release and hook SMODS.pseudorandom_probability

[vast bough]

when is this planned to release and will it break existing probability stuff

[red flower]

i would guess tomorrow but depends on eremel's schedule

it shouldn't break anything but any mod using the new stuff won't be backwards compatible with any mod checking probability the old way

[paper elbow]

Hold, on, I'm just stupid.

[vast bough]

catch me NOT updating ANYTHING then

[paper elbow]

I put WINEDLLOVERRIDE not WINEDLLOVERRIDES

Okay, I'm all good.

[formal quest]

When that comes will I be able to check the outcome?

[red flower]

yes, that function returns if the chance succeeds or fails and has what card did it as an argument

[formal quest]

How do I get the contained hand types before a hand is played?

[chrome widget]

You mean when cards are highlighted?

[formal quest]

Yeah

[sullen brook]

Is there a prefix list in the source code somewhere? Looking for the prefixes for challenges to work on my localization file, can't seem to locate one and I think it's what's breaking things. I've found for most cards, but not one for challenges

[chrome widget]

You'd probably want to hook the CardArea:ParseHighlighted function and use what it sends to evaluate play

[red flower]

oops read something wrong

it's c
https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/a2630a0a7873651ec8280a97ac8652988c2e3cc6/localization/default/03Challenges.lua#L4

[sullen brook]

AH, ok, and looks like ch is used for the v_text used as the description

[primal robin]

You know, I never asked for my code review. Maybe I should?

[formal quest]

How do I hook that? Looking at lua guides on hooking but I can't figure out how to go from their generic example to balatro

[chrome widget]

In Lua, functions are variables, and functions not declared as being stored locally are automatically, implicitly placed in the global table. Hooking means storing the original version of the function locally, redeclaring the function with a new body, and then using the reference to the original as a limited type of inheritance

[modern kindle]

winterr!

[chrome widget]

Dilly!!!

[modern kindle]

hi my friend how are you

[formal quest]

That doesn't really help

It's not relevant to my question

[chrome widget]

👍 if you want to ignore fundamental information for applying it anywhere, up to you

[formal quest]

The question I asked was how Balatro's internals work with this. You giving me an irrelevant basic level answer is plain disrespectful.

[spice wadi]

i think the point that theyre making is hooking is hooking, it doesnt vary too much by function

[primal robin]

[modern kindle]

yea, winter gave a pretty solid answer without just giving the code for them

code is code and balatro doesnt magically treat hooks differently

[chrome widget]

When a woman gives an explanation about something: "that's just plain disrespectful"

Lmao

[formal quest]

That has nothing to do with this lmao

[spice wadi]

hmmm not sure if this is sexism here 😭

[dreamy thunder]

how does one make a card area

[spice wadi]

its basically the same
make sure that it takes the exact same arguments and feeds them into the original function so it works properly
and run smth afterwards so you can use the information elsewhere
if its because youre hooking a method, its the same as hooking any method so find the syntax for that

[modern kindle]

im not too knowledgeable but you should be able to check kino, joyouspring (i think), and balatro star rail for some examples

[formal quest]

I just can't figure out the syntax of CardArea:parse_highlighted. I copied https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/129557-tutorial-function-hooking-and-you/ this example to the best of my ability but the syntax doesn't match up.

[vast night]

Where is the display name of the joker card stored? (G.jokers.cards)

[vast night]

show

[spice wadi]

can you show the code

[spice wadi]

im guessing you have to get its localisation entry

[formal quest]

This is my attempt to figure out lua hooks

[spice wadi]

why is it so red
what are the errors

[modern kindle]

cant you just get it from center.key or ability.name or smth

[spice wadi]

maybe?
itd make sense actually

[formal quest]

Too many to count

[vast night]

its ability.name

[spice wadi]

i cant remember if cards store the localised text

[modern kindle]

i know i use ability.name but i coudlnt remember if that was an older way of doing it

[formal quest]

This isn't something where following the errors would actually fix it cause it's clearly so far off

[modern kindle]

so didnt wanna recommend poss bad prac

[spice wadi]

honestly it looks all fine so i think you may have messed up smth before it and should check the errors

[spice wadi]

you dont put hooks inside a card

[modern kindle]

hooks dont go inside

yea

[formal quest]

Still some red outside the card

[spice wadi]

i think the best way of accessing it from inside the card is SMODS.calculate_context

[spice wadi]

. not : first line

probably space between function and brackets next line is there is still an error

[primal robin]

There's more incorrect things than correct ones

[placid star]

so i have a joker that checks if a card is in hand, if not it draws it. but when i have two of this joker it just draws the card twice and makes a ghost card. i tried wrapping this in a function and it didnt work either

[formal quest]

Yes it's called learning a new language

[formal quest]

Removing the space makes no difference

[primal robin]

local cardarea_parse_highlighted_ref = CardArea.parse_highlighted
function CardArea:parse_highlighted(...)
  local result = cardarea_parse_highlighted_ref(self, ...)
  -- Your code
  return result
end

[formal quest]

Thanks

[rotund sable]

Are you calling the function and then assigning the result?

[daring fern]

Firstly, you shouldn't be putting cards in other cards.

[placid star]

and secondly?

[modern kindle]

and secondly you have wonderful eyes or something idk

[paper elbow]

How do I override default assets in a mod?

[chrome widget]

How do you instantly trigger a game over?

I tried setting the state to game over but afaik that doesn't actually do everything it needs to

[red flower]

G.STATE = G.STATES.GAME_OVER
G.STATE_COMPLETE = false

[chrome widget]

AH! Forgot to set the state completion

[sonic cedar]

so this should work right

[daring fern]

No, because you're putting the counts on kard and not card

[sonic cedar]

i did not mean to change those actually

otherwise good?

[daring fern]

G.playing_cards doesn't always exist.

[sonic cedar]

right ik ik but like counter wise

will this count properly

[red flower]

if you're doing things in update you should probably also check if the card is in G.jokers

[sonic cedar]

ohhhhh true

[faint leaf]

how do i make a random number function for a '1 in whatever' thing

cause this just crashes when i click on the joker lmao

[sonic cedar]

pseudorandom('seed', min, max)

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/d409afd0211dc417e803bcb1311aaca691e557fe/src/jokers.lua#L910

[faint leaf]

still getting a crash but for a different reason now

[tepid crow]

cuz you didn't define odds

[faint leaf]

im lowk a little unknowledgeable can you give like a basic rundown on how to do that

[tepid crow]

also shouldn't we be telling people to use the new smods probability stuff

[red flower]

eremel said to not tell that to new modders yet so I'm just following orders o7

[tepid crow]

oh

fair enough

[red flower]

but here's an example of that
https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/706e55b80d361092129619baa8f387b4d8803e4b/src/jokers.lua#L912

[tepid crow]

"just following orders sir"

[tepid crow]

you've defined extra.dollar and extra.chance, you just haven't defined extra.odds

with defining I simply mean x = y

[faint leaf]

hmmmmm

[tepid crow]

change the .odds to .chance

[faint leaf]

okay it works now awesome sauce

[tepid crow]

and you understand why, right?

[faint leaf]

pretty sure

okay i lied

[tepid crow]

lmao

[faint leaf]

now whjen i start a round

[tepid crow]

so that was a fucking lie

[red flower]

that's because you need a strict context check

you need one of these (depending on what your effect is)

[sturdy compass]

Oh yeah N huge props for fully finishing vremade!

[red flower]

thank you

im sure there's a lot of broken stuff there tho

[sturdy compass]

Nothing is ever bug free

[faint leaf]

okay i THINK i

cutting that short

its best i did

what SYNBOLL

[red flower]

that then in line 130 should be an and

[faint leaf]

this WILL be the LAST CRASH

[sonic cedar]

sealed box of sulfuryl fluoride:

[sturdy compass]

WRONG

[faint leaf]

okay well its not crashing but shit is stiiiill broken

[red flower]

if it's sealed you don't know what's inside have you heard of Schrodinger

[faint leaf]

i WILL fix it myself though

[sonic cedar]

ate him

[sturdy compass]

Maximus reference

[sonic cedar]

maximus 1.0 is out guys btw

[sturdy compass]

1.1 soon

Probably as soon as SMODS stable updates

[sonic cedar]

1.1... TOMORROW!

blackpanther gif

[sturdy compass]

I hate that I know which one you're talking about cuz I saw the same one for Deltarune

[sonic cedar]

DELTARUUUUNE

TOMORROWWW 🗣️

god i need to play 3/4

[sturdy compass]

Toma please do

it's so good

[faint leaf]

i just finished 3/4 the other day it was so good

[supple crag]

i rly like the enhancement, seal and edition decks, but i dont want the rest of cryptid, so can someone pls turn that into a mod for me?

[faint leaf]

ohhh my god i fixed my error

im a GENIUS!

[sturdy compass]

[faint leaf]

honestly how i feel

it was a simple error of just.. not setting a value after something had been done

[subtle merlin]

What does G.GAME.dollar_buffer do, exactly?

[red flower]

Dollars get updated in an event (to display the small animation over the text) but during scoring some jokers (like bootstraps) need the total money immediately so effects update the dollar buffer temporarily to let them work before the event runs

[subtle merlin]

oohhh, oki, ty!

[faint leaf]

okay ONE LAST THING what am i missing here 😢

[red flower]

line 141 should be outside the return
also I recommend getting the lua extension to autoformat the file with correct indentation

[subtle merlin]

I am once again confused-

[sonic cedar]

so how can i use THESE (left) in HERE (right)
would i just add card to the function params and then do an
if card.blahblah then do wtv?

(both of these are in the same file)

[red flower]

what's the objective?

[sonic cedar]

effect triggers once all cards in a suit have turned to clubs
doesnt count if there arent any of that suit in the deck

[red flower]

but then why do you need to hook change_suit if you're already checking in update

[sonic cedar]

for the s-

gdi

[formal quest]

How do I get the contained hands of the highlighted cards?

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/d409afd0211dc417e803bcb1311aaca691e557fe/src/jokers.lua#L4628

like that

[sonic cedar]

no wait cause how would i check for if there's 0 left and it wasnt at 0 alr
(ofc if you get a card of a suit you didnt have before, now you can factor that suit in)

[formal quest]

Is this responding to me?

[red flower]

oh but you need the third return like local _, _, poker_hands = ...

[red flower]

yes

[formal quest]

This is 4800 lines of code

[red flower]

i linked to the specific line

you might need to let it load a bit

[formal quest]

It doesn't

[red flower]

line 4628 then

[red flower]

in update you just check if the value is different from the previous value

[sonic cedar]

yeah but thats what i mean how would i do that

[sonic cedar]

something like this yk (made sure to put this in update dw)

[red flower]

how are you counting rn

[subtle merlin]

i'm going to leave before i start growling at this

[red flower]

ok instead of doing that update a local variable like local spadecount and then do card.ability.spadecount ~= spadecount

(then update card.ability.spadecount to the new count)

[sonic cedar]

let me set that up rq

[faint leaf]

i got the joker working properly!! thakn u N for all ur help ❤️

[formal quest]

What can I do with the return value of get_poker_hand_info? I'm trying to get all the hands it contains, not just the "played" hand which is what Burnt Joker uses.

[inner folio]

What's the code to change the Texture of Enhancedments Texture and Jokers Texture game file ?

[red flower]

#💻・modding-dev message

[subtle merlin]

I'm stupid, i solved it tho

[red flower]

I recommend looking into Malverk

[sonic cedar]

keeps showing up as an unexpected expression

[red flower]

what's the full code

[red flower]

you need to put it here in the it wasnt zero already

local heartcount = 0

as well

[sonic cedar]

ohh

ok ok hold on

[brittle tide]

bump

[daring fern]

Yes.

[brittle tide]

would you mind telling me how?

[pastel kernel]

is it possible to make a joker switch the suit of played hand?

cause i don't know how to implement that.

[daring fern]

Yes.

[daring fern]

Perhaps hooking add_round_eval_row?

[subtle merlin]

return {dollars = G.GAME.dollars * 2} would work, no?

oh it's cash earned

nvm

[sonic cedar]

all good?

[formal quest]

How do I get the chips and mult of a hand type?

[red flower]

you need to set card.ability.***count = ***count after the last if

[hasty mist]

why does this becomes an infinite loop

[red flower]

G.GAME.hands[key].mult and .chips iirc

[idle plaza]

Your event needs to return true

[hasty mist]

ah

[sonic cedar]

so just before outside of the if G.jokers check

[hasty mist]

does anyone know where the code is that's responsible for adding the hand's total score to the round score

[red flower]

after this end i mean

[red flower]

state_events in G.FUNCS.evaluate_play

look for hand_chips*mult > 0

[hasty mist]

ty

[fallow breach]

is there a way to change whether chips or mult triggers first on a card with both

i mean i know it doesn't change anything but i think it looks nicer when mult goes then chips

[inner folio]

don't know why i always try add new Enhancedments Texture, the texture always become like in the game

[red flower]

return {
    mult = value,
    extra = { chips = value }
}

[fallow breach]

that's what i have and it still was procing wrong

[red flower]

yes

that's not what i wrote tho

[fallow breach]

oh i see

[sonic cedar]

yeah thats where i put it dw

[random sleet]

does anyone more knowledgable on UI know how to "refresh" a displayed UI box? e.g. while a card is being hovered

[red flower]

what I do and what I've seen others do is to unhover and hover a card in code

idk if there's a better way

[random sleet]

dang

[fallow breach]

would this go under context.joker_main?

[flat mist]

Hmm ok what about a joker
Played hand is duplicated or destroyed

[red flower]

yeah just replace your return with that

[flat mist]

Is this idea good

Played hand is duplicated or destroyed

[fallow breach]

based on what

a chance or first hand played, or what

[flat mist]

First played hand

[fallow breach]

i mean wouldn't that just be dna but better

[flat mist]

Yes 50 50 chance

[fallow breach]

okay

[flat mist]

But there will be risk for destroying

[fallow breach]

that would be weird to implement but you could do it

[hasty mist]

can i not use if statements in this scenario??? (lovely patch)

[fallow breach]

"1 in 2 chance to create a copy of each played card in first hand of round, otherwise each card is destroyed" or something like that

[flat mist]

Hmm ok

[manic rune]

no, that's a table

[hasty mist]

hm

what should i do instead

[manic rune]

if statement outside the event?

[hasty mist]

can i just put the if statement outside the add

okay yeah

[bold gyro]

Hey y'all, I'm trying to replicate those speech bubbles that Jimbo uses, based on vanilla code and code from the Partner mod. I seem to be very close to getting it to work, but for some reason no text is showing up.

function G.UIDEF.tf_speech_bubble(input_key)
    local text = {}
    localize{type = "quips", key = input_key, nodes=text}
    local row = {}
    for k, v in ipairs(text) do
        row[#row+1] = {n=G.UIT.R, config={align = "cl"}, nodes=v}
        -- print("a")

[formal quest]

So this is my attempt at adding chips/mult of contained hands while selecting cards. It doesn't work

[red flower]

like, as a preview?

[formal quest]

Yeah

Update: Doesn't crash but doesn't do anything either

[red flower]

you would need to use update_hand_text probably

[formal quest]

How do I use that method? Running it empty gives a nil value crash

[red flower]

I would check how the game uses it, it's not very straightforward

[sour garden]

why does having the loc_var info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = {key = 'perishable', set = 'Other'} crash the game when i hover over it? when it's an error, it works just fine, but perishable crashes

oh wait, i have an idea as to why

[formal quest]

I guess I gotta decompile my game

[red flower]

you can check the folder under lovely/dump too

[faint yacht]

if next(SMODS.find_card('j_modprefix_key', true)) then ?

[formal quest]

Oh it's just right there, nice

[formal quest]

What is this line for?

[faint yacht]

That's the recommended way to "check" for a Joker instead of find_joker.

[formal quest]

Thanks. How do I use prefix with that?

[faint yacht]

Your modprefix.

[formal quest]

Do I include the j_x_

[faint yacht]

SMODS.find_card uses full keys, so yes.

[sour garden]

is there an easy way to add a custom info_queue to a joker, or do i need to add something to a localization file

[red flower]

you do need to add it to a localization file

[pastel kernel]

so it conflicts with cryptid?

[sonic cedar]

how do i check if the scoring hand is the lowest ranked one?
like, say i play a two pair of 2|2|5|5

i want it to focus on the pair of twos
cause that's the lowest ranked hand in scoring
(will only focus high card if you play a pair or a high card)

[unborn bay]

Note that you can individually go through the poker hands in the scored hand via context.poker_hands[poker_hand_name]

that includes pairs

its a table of tables

[sonic cedar]

so if i did it through next it's already focusing it*?

*the lowest ranked in terms of... well... ranks

or will it sometimes pick the 5s over the 2s

[formal quest]

I found this:
update_hand_text({immediate = true, nopulse = nil, delay = 0}, {handname=disp_text, level=G.GAME.hands[text].level, mult = G.GAME.hands[text].mult, chips = G.GAME.hands[text].chips})

I have a feeling these variables won't be the same for me though, so I'm trying to figure out what to replace them with

[frigid cargo]

SMODS.current_mod.set_debuff = function(card)
    if card and card.ability and card.ability.fainted == G.GAME.round then
      return G.STATE == G.STATES.SELECTING_HAND or G.STATE == G.STATES.HAND_PLAYED or G.STATE == G.STATES.DRAW_TO_HAND
    end

    if card.ability.name == "Wild Card" and next(find_joker('Natures Touch')) then return 'prevent_debuff' end

   return false
end

is this all i need for wild cards to not be debuffed? cause its not working

[serene granite]

how can you make the text of a card dynamically update for a card that uses Xmult. like for a scaling joker, i guess a good example is vampire. the text isnt updating 😭

[sonic cedar]

This Joker is supposed to destroy part of or all of the cards in your scoring hand, depending or not whether it contains a poker hand stored in type (in this case Pair) is this how that would work?

[midnight coyote]

how do i check if a blind is a boss blind

[sonic cedar]

if G.GAME.blind.boss
(replace G.GAME with context if it needs to be a context)

[bold gyro]

does anyone have experience making those speech bubbles from Jimbo (for example in the tutorial)? i can't get text to show up for some reason

[sonic cedar]

make sure your quip keys match

id help more but im dead tired

[bold gyro]

understandable

[ripe nova]

I'm trying to build a text-based interface for balatro e.g. for blind people / to let LLMs interact with balatro.
Things I'm currently working on but need help with -

1. Getting the current state of the game
   1a. I'd love to be able to spit out all the cards that are in the hand, and which of them are currently selected
   1b. I'd love to be able to read where the game is, in the menus
   1c. Currently I'm exploiting the Balatro save system, reading the save data and converting it to Json - but this doesn't work in menus and can't tell me which cards are currently selected.
   1d. I'm thinking of using cheat engine to directly extract the game state by reading the game's memory.

2. Being able to interact with the game from a command line
   2a. I've tried using the Typist mod; but I note that this only lets you interact with a limited number of cards (11, one for each key on the home row of your keyboard - probably not an issue for most players, but could prevent some power users from fully engaging with cryptid card shenannegans)
   2b. I've also toyed with emusating a gamepad but this wouldn't work unless I can read the current game state, including which cards are currently selected.

Anyone got any better advice for me re reading the state of the game and interacting with it from a text only interface?

[median veldt]

a few questions

• what exactly does next() do
• is there a relatively easy way to make a blind picture like i can code one but idk what to do to make the image
• how do i change the icon of the mod, like the one that shows up in the mod menu it kinda looks like a tag
  sorry if that last one is in the docs, it sounds like it would be but idk i didnt see anything

gosh i wrote this like 5 hours ago but i forgot to hit enter 😭

[gilded blaze]

to animate blinds, use https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1343897196927647754
you just need the first frame

[median veldt]

i apologise for the probably very simple questions

thanksmuch

thats the big one the other two are jhust out of curisoity

[gilded blaze]

SMODS.Atlas{key = "modicon", path = "icon.png", px = 34, py = 34}

[median veldt]

thanks much x2

nevermind about the next thing for some reason i didnt piece together that its just a lua thing

[stoic void]

Is this what i do for the rank names?

[hasty mist]

is there a way to round numbers to the nearest hundred

math.floor and math.ceiling only seem to round to the nearest integer

[stoic void]

Divide the number by 100, round then multuiply by 100

50/100 = 0.5 rnd 0.5 = 1
1100 = 100
49/100 = 0.5 rnd 0.49 = 0
0100 = 0

[tall wharf]

also yes do that if you just want to round numbers

[hasty mist]

that seems to do nothing

[stoic void]

oh

[hasty mist]

still not rounded

[stoic void]

round it after dividing

silly

[hasty mist]

oh

[stoic void]

1x2/2 = 1

[stoic void]

Now, i need help

[median veldt]

depends on what you're doing with them

[stoic void]

Making this

I just want to know if that is what i put for the numbers

The face cards are sorted ofc

[median veldt]

i mean if you're talking the cards' internal numbers you don't put them in strings and it's just
2 thru 14 (ace)

the numbers

[stoic void]

Oh

[median veldt]

what exactly are you doing with them tho

[stoic void]

so "2", "3" ..... "13", "14"

no jack queen king ace

[median veldt]

cuz this js looks like balatro with a deckskin

[median veldt]

remove the quotes

[stoic void]

really? ok

[median veldt]

so that they are numbers

[stoic void]

Its like friends of jimbo yeah

[median veldt]

and not text

[stoic void]

ok

[median veldt]

ok granted i dont know how to make a deck skin

but im just going off of my knowledge of card IDs

[stoic void]

Ok

Ill come back in a sec

thx

[median veldt]

hold up

wait

i'm looking at the code of a deck skin i have

you were right

so long as something like this is going on i think

i do not know

lemme look at the example

[stoic void]

So i do add quotes

ok

[median veldt]

https://github.com/Steamodded/examples/blob/master/Mods/DeckSkinTemplate/DeckSkinTemplate.lua

look at this

you should find your answers

[stoic void]

ok

[median veldt]

yes and put the names of the ranks back sorry i misled you, i didn't know what you were asking initially

[stoic void]

"2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "Jack", "Queen", "King", "Ace"
?

[median veldt]

yeppers

are you actually replacing all of those cards tho

or just the face cards

[stoic void]

Im making all of them

[median veldt]

alrigh

[median veldt]

i love this a lot actually

[stoic void]

thx

I have some things in my folder

These are high res ofc

[gilded blaze]

Lusty Pareidolia: All cards with Hearts suit are considered face cards

[median veldt]

I could totaly make that

Can I steal that and put it in my big balatro mod because I have zero ideas for jokers and that would actually be pretty decent

i can credit u if u want

[gilded blaze]

you don't have to

it was just a faint idea of mine based on the texture

since they all look like face cards

[median veldt]

hell yeah

[stoic void]

Ok

[wet chasm]

Anyone know if steam modded works on Xbox game pass balatro, last time I heard it was in progress

[wet chasm]

Got my ass

[stoic void]

I dont think so

[gilded blaze]

gamepass got hands

you see

[stoic void]

Piss

[wet chasm]

My bad, it probably gets asked a lot.

[molten musk]

hello chat

[vast night]

hi

[flat mist]

during testing how to make a joker to always appear in the first shop

[shell timber]

you can just use debugplus to spawn it

[molten musk]

so i tried reading and saving seals in a table and then printed the output
its gave me 0 every time even tho i have seals
whats the issue?

[daring fern]

found_seal is not a table, also card is the card.

[molten musk]

what do i use then?

i just want to be able to read seals and call them back, similar to how "The idol" calls cards

[daring fern]

playing_card

[molten musk]

now it prints out "nil" instead of 0

@daring fern still here?

[daring fern]

Yes, playing_card doesn't exist outside of the loop, and I was referring to using playing_card.seal

[molten musk]

oh

ok let me try that then

it worked

now i need to make it choose one of the seals in the table randomly, count how many are there, and give money based on that number

[stoic void]

Why cant i code D:

[molten musk]

oh, hi lusty

[stoic void]

hi

[molten musk]

skill issue, lol

[molten musk]

joking, u can learn

[stoic void]

What is wrong with thiss

[molten musk]

whats the issue? does it crash? not work?

[stoic void]

No, it's this

This is the png used

Ive got the 4 files correctly named

[molten musk]

so whats the issue?

is it repeating the 2s?

[stoic void]

yeah

[molten musk]

hmm...

let me look it up real quick

[stoic void]

https://github.com/Gud-username/Lusty-hearts Is the mod

[formal parrot]

Heyy devs

[stoic void]

Hi

[molten musk]

hello heaven

[molten musk]

trying to help lusty here

[stoic void]

My deck sskin is broken

[molten musk]

and thinking about this too...

[formal parrot]

Oh hello

[formal parrot]

What’s the problem?

[molten musk]

repeats 2s after 4

[stoic void]

This

Also

The 2,4,3,2 is meant to be ace,king,queen, jack

[molten musk]

and flips 4 and 3 pos

[formal parrot]

Mhm

You can use aiko’s mod and change some files , some stuff on the deck skin is outdated as I remember

[molten musk]

some how i feel there is something wrong with the code

dont know where

[stoic void]

I should flip the order of the cards

Ill do that later because it isnt going to crash my game, i tested it already

[molten musk]

...

do it now

[flat mist]

So I install debug plus how to spawn any jokers during a run

[molten musk]

yes

[formal parrot]

Press 3 when hovering in the collection

[stoic void]

Done

[molten musk]

press tab to see every thing

[molten musk]

try now

[stoic void]

I did

I flipped it after testing

[molten musk]

oh i see

so the issue is something else

[formal parrot]

hc_atlas = hc_registered and atlas_key..'_hc' or atlas_key..'_lc',

Try this

In the last one

[stoic void]

Ok

[frigid cargo]

what does card.abillity.fainted do?

[formal parrot]

Sounds easy enough

[frigid cargo]

nvm

[formal parrot]

Whats that😭

[formal parrot]

You can do the random with pseudorandom element

[molten musk]

"sounds" easy

[formal parrot]

Put it in a variable and

Do a for

To count how many are they

[molten musk]

hmm, i thought of pseudorandom

[stoic void]

It did nothing :(

[molten musk]

ig that code is not yours...

[formal parrot]

Lusty i think i have an easier and working solution for you 😭

[stoic void]

If not, it made it so i cant use low/high contrasrt

[stoic void]

Yeah?

[formal parrot]

Aiko had a mod that added deck skin and its up to date you can change the asset files and some optional stuff and it will work

They don’t mind

[molten musk]

yeah do that

[formal parrot]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1328621901496713328

Here

[stoic void]

Ok

What do i put for the key?

Is it the name of the deck skin?

[formal parrot]

Anything to identify it

Make sure to rename it in other instances of appearance in code

[stoic void]

Ok

[formal parrot]

If you’re using vscode just click it and it’ll show you

[frigid cargo]

im tryna do a function to check for a wild card, can i use if card.ability.name == "Wild Card" is that even a thing?

[stoic void]

Im coding on github

[daring fern]

SMODS.has_enhancement(card, "m_wild")

[formal parrot]

😭you might wanna use vscode

Its free

[frigid cargo]

ok thanks

how can i make it so the function checks for a specific joker

[formal parrot]

Where exactly

[molten musk]

lazy to think of how to even write it lol

[daring fern]

next(SMODS.find_card("j_modprefix_key")?

[subtle merlin]

llllllooooooooonnnnnnngggggggg sigh if i had a penny every time i've fixed and then forgot how to fix this issue i'd be rich enough to cure transphobia-

[frigid cargo]

i think this one works thanks

[formal parrot]

local card1 = pseudorandom_element(table, 'something')

I think

I might be stupid

[daring fern]

You seem to be inputting a table that isn't a card into a SMODS function.

[molten musk]

love u

heaven

[molten musk]

all hail teacher

[formal parrot]

You know your code isn’t fucked up when you don’t get a ⁉️‼️ as a reaction

[molten musk]

your "😭 " are tears of joy right?

[formal parrot]

Yeah😂

[molten musk]

just making sure haha

[stoic void]

tee hee

[formal parrot]

Tell me if you have any other troubles

:>

[stoic void]

<3

My mod crashed the game

[subtle merlin]

That was it, i was using context.scoring_hand when i needed G.play.cards

[stoic void]

i forgot a bracket

It says line 10 and im like

oh yeah

no closed bracket

Now it is as brocken as last time

What did i do?

[formal parrot]

They mean

,

When they said expected }

[stoic void]

https://github.com/Gud-username/Lusty-hearts/blob/main/Lusty.lua

What did i do man

Git hub dosent like me

[inner folio]

can we moding the joker card in the intro

[formal parrot]

Yes

[stoic void]

We can modding the joker

[formal parrot]

Don’t be mean some people don’t have the greatest english skills :>

[molten musk]

what do i change to?

[formal parrot]

Table is

The table that contains the seals

Your local table 😂

[stoic void]

How on earth have i got someone elses code wrong

[molten musk]

crashes, tells me context is ...

i think i know, it needs calculate, right?

[formal parrot]

Context.end of shop should work

Probably

[frigid cargo]

if SMODS.has_enhancement(card, "m_wild") and next(SMODS.find_card('j_batrocities_NaturesTouch')) then 
            return {
                'prevent_debuff'
            }
        end

will this work if i just slap it on calculate of the joker (highly doubt) (idek if the code is proper)

[stoic void]

atlas_table = 'ASSET_ATLAS',
what do i do for atlas_table

[molten musk]

calculate is not calculating lol

[stoic void]

Would i say atlas_table = 'ASSET_ATLAS',
or do i do something for atlas_table
like atlas_table = "lemon"

[frigid cargo]

whats the difference between SMODS.add_card(t) and SMODS.create_card(t)?, and when would i use either?

[crisp coral]

add_card automatically emplaces the card to the area and runs add_to_deck

[frigid cargo]

ah i see thanks

but what about create_card?

[crisp coral]

SMODS.create_card is the same as base create_card

[frigid cargo]

ah without the add_to_deck i see thanks

[stoic void]

https://github.com/Gud-username/Lusty-hearts/blob/main/Lusty.lua
And what would i do with this to stop the image from happening

[subtle merlin]

I keep trying to return a card to the hand from scoring but it always comes back flipped...

[tight hull]

what does that mean?

[stoic void]

DUDE

[primal robin]

syntax error

[stoic void]

How do i fix it

[tight hull]

im guessing that eof is end of function?

[tight hull]

what did you do?

[stoic void]

https://github.com/Gud-username/Lusty-hearts

Im trying to make more than the face cards work

[stoic void]

I dont even know

[tight hull]

    hc_atlas = "vocalatro_hearts_2",```

try using your keys instead of that?

i dont know much abt deck skins

[tight hull]

    hc_atlas = "hearts_2",```
It should look smth like this (I think? Im not sure)

could you send what mod did you copy from?

[stoic void]

https://github.com/Aikoyori/Vocalatro/tree/main

[tight hull]

then this is bad

dont mind this

[tight hull]

your mod worked?

and then it stopped?

[stoic void]

Not quite

It worked with fac cards only

the i added more ranks and it broke for no reason

[tight hull]

ok

[stoic void]

Also your code crashed my game

hc_atlas = "hearts_2",

[shell timber]

...why does your deckskin reference vocalatro

[tight hull]

yeah

[shell timber]

also the commas

get rid of the commas

in the main scope

[stoic void]

like this?

[shell timber]

yeah

...are you editing in github

[stoic void]

yes

[shell timber]

,,,,,

[stoic void]

where

[shell timber]

,

[tight hull]

at least we can see his work 🤷‍♂️

[stoic void]

I havent commied it yet

Done

[shell timber]

install an actual code editor ,,,,,,

[stoic void]

no

[shell timber]

your loss

[stoic void]

I have parental controls

[shell timber]

the ever-reliable notepad:

[stoic void]

I use that to edit my code occasionally

If its small i do

actaually

yeah sure

Still have a problem

[tight hull]

does someone know how to make those check boxes?

[snow vale]

why wont this destroy?

(enhancement)

[stoic void]

How is my code broken

[polar parrot]

how do i change this so it shows the correct joker

[snow vale]

what atlas do you ahve?

have

you have to set the correct position so it transforms into the joker for that position

in your atlas

like

[stiff locust]

X = 0 and Y = 0 is the top left corner of your spritesheet

[snow vale]

rn, x=0 y=0 here is the first card

[stiff locust]

increase X by 1 to go right by 1, increase Y by 1 to go down by 1

[snow vale]

x=1, y= 0 is the second card

x is the row and y the column

[polar parrot]

and which corner do i have to put in of my joker

[snow vale]

depends on your atlas

can we see the spritesheet you're using?

[snow vale]

which one do you want your joker to show?

[polar parrot]

the flower

[snow vale]

then use {x=1, y=0}

[polar parrot]

my games loading fine, but my mod isnt appearing on my mod list nor is the joker appearing in the collection

[snow vale]

can you show us your mods folder?

[tight hull]

why does it show error?

[snow vale]

please switch to json file

header is a bit bad

[tight hull]

you mean to put the header in json?

[snow vale]

no

i mean

[tight hull]

the whole file?

[snow vale]

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

this

[tight hull]

like this

[snow vale]

yeah

[tight hull]

this is an temporary mod so I didnt want to do that but sure

[snow vale]

tho it's way better to use that

[tight hull]

ok

[snow vale]

is fractural your mod?

[polar parrot]

yes

[snow vale]

enter it

[tight hull]

is this better?

[snow vale]

yeah ig i never added an extra button so

[stoic void]

help

[snow vale]

now enter the main

[tight hull]

shouldnt the lua file be named the same as the folder?

[snow vale]

nah

the json must

i think

[tight hull]

no
