@charred widget is it working or are you still crashing?

[modern kindle]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/2a7816a0f4719119ae1afac5516e4f92492d5cf9/src/jokers.lua#L4884

refer to this note regarding talisman

[ocean sinew]

how would I retransform it into tables values If talisman is enabled?

It works fine with Cryptid probably because Cryptid does something like that

but I want it to work without Cryptid installed too

[modern kindle]

that is what the note tells you

[ocean sinew]

oh got it

so the transform_operations should do return to_big(val) instead?

I'mma try that and give result

[clear ocean]

are these good

[charred widget]

yeah its working

[clear ocean]

not sure if the perishable should be included

[charred widget]

also @rocky plaza i'd love if you could help me code something

[rocky plaza]

sure, what do you want to code?

[charred widget]

so right now this joker creates 1 negative death card each time a hand is played

and i want it to gain +0.1x mult for every death card you have

[rocky plaza]

in extra, put x_mult = 1

in loc_txt["text"], put [3] = "Gains {X:mult,C:white}X0.1{} Mult for every"
and [4] = "{C:tarot}Death{} held in consumable slots"

hold on

so this code will count the number of deaths in consumable slots

local death_count = 0
  if G.consumeables then
      for _, c in ipairs(G.consumeables.cards) do
          if c.config.center.key == "c_death" then
              death_count = death_count + 1
          end
      end
  end

[charred widget]

alright thanks, where should i put it?

[rocky plaza]

gimme a moment

[long sun]

i'm back ^^; i still need to figure out how to save something to the profile

[rocky plaza]

lemme know if anything is confusing

[charred widget]

tysm!!!!

[clear ocean]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.before and context.main_eval then
            local text, _ = G.FUNCS.get_poker_hand_info(G.hand.highlighted)
            return {
                level_up = true,
                level_up_hand = text
            }
        end
    end,

[normal crest]

context.scoring_name

[clear ocean]

same error after adding it as additional argument in the if statement unless that's not what you meant

[normal crest]

context.scoring_name is the name of the scored hand

[clear ocean]

oh

[normal crest]

no card is highlighted in G.hand during context.before

[clear ocean]

so level_up_hand = context.scoring_name?

[normal crest]

try it, remove the call to get_poker_hand_info tho

[clear ocean]

yeah according to vscode it doesn't get used

[proven adder]

what could I put under a tarot's can_use that would check if the player has a certain joker?

[long sun]

next(SMODS.find_card('[YOUR JOKER'S KEY HERE]'))

[proven adder]

thanks

[long sun]

so for example, for Mail-In Rebate, it's:
next(SMODS.find_card('j_mail'))

and this value needs to be returned

[proven adder]

so something like this?

        return true```

[long sun]

you can just return that value directly, no need for the if statement

but ya

[proven adder]

oh ok ty

[long sun]

npnp!

[clear ocean]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.setting_blind then
            G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                func = function()
                    SMODS.add_card {
                        set = 'Joker',
                        rarity = {1, 2, 3},
                        edition = 'e_negative',
                        key_append = 'vremade_riff_raff'
                    }
                    return true
                end
            }))
            return {
                message = localize('k_plus_joker'),
                colour = G.C.BLUE,
            }
        end
    end

any way to have the rarity from one to three, as according to vscode rarity cannot be set by a table

[cursive gazelle]

Would really appreciate some help on this one

[clear ocean]

everything else works and currently, it gives me just rare jokers

[cursive gazelle]

You can use pseudorandom

Or math.random()

[normal crest]

If you just want a random one of the three do pseudorandom("seed", 1, 3), tho idk if it takes numbers

[cursive gazelle]

Tho it’s not recommended

[normal crest]

might have to do pseudorandom_element({"Common", "Uncommon", "Rare"}, "seed")

[clear ocean]

i'll try the numbers first

[normal crest]

It'll probably give you rare jokers every time

[clear ocean]

it still does

the element one works 👍

[distant junco]

yo, im trying to set up the lua lsp as seen here https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#how-do-i-start-making-balatro-mods

and i made the .luarc.json with this

{
  "workspace.library": ["C:\Users\osgha\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\Mods\smods-1.0.0-beta-0711a", "C:\Users\osgha\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\Mods\lovely\dump"]
}

and its giving me this error

[modern kindle]

hi srock

[clear ocean]

hi dilly

[normal crest]

hi dilly

[modern kindle]

hello ken

[cursive gazelle]

It will really take time to find someone sho know ui lol

[normal crest]

Whenever you put , make it \

Uh

Whenever you put \ make it \\

[distant junco]

oh ok

odd

like this?

[distant junco]

ok so you were kinda wrong i needed to make all the \ into /

[normal crest]

My bad

[distant junco]

its alright

mistakes happen

[copper thorn]

poeple ! i need help ! why isn't my code updating the sprite ? (actually it's ThunderEdges code)

[vestal magnet]

but i specified it in the loc_txt???

[rocky plaza]

for context, i put crash = 1/0 to see if update() would run

[copper thorn]

and it didn't

[cursive gazelle]

I can link some animation examples

If you want

[normal crest]

What's the warning when hovering over update

[copper thorn]

nothing

[copper thorn]

i wanna use Thunder's anilation code, but yeah sure

[normal crest]

What's your full code

[rocky plaza]

wait is it unicode shenanegans

[copper thorn]

like in the debug thing it didn't show anything am i right ?

or am i already lost

[rocky plaza]

... can u send me the mod in dms?

[cursive gazelle]

https://github.com/FloteWasTaken/oopsAllRalsei

@red flower can i get some help on this one

No one better to ask than the joyous spring

[modern kindle]

Can't just ping the guy when he ain't here
Gotta wait for him to be here

[wispy sparrow]

so i want my joker to play a sound effect once you obtain it, but it's not playing at all and i have no idea why

[cursive gazelle]

He’s online so i figured there’s no issue on pinging him

I tried not to

But i couldn’t find any help anywhere else sadly

[long sun]

i figured out saving things to the profile ^u^

[normal crest]

So what's the issue

[cursive gazelle]

Cards don’t flip + no button color

[primal robin]

Who is this people who don't use monospace font in programming, crazy

[normal crest]

Make the first ui element a root, not a row

For the color

[cursive gazelle]

And the flip

[cursive gazelle]

Make sure your path is correct and your folders aswell

And your SMODS.sound

[wispy sparrow]

the sound is already allocated and defined

[normal crest]

Dunno, does everything in the event happen except the flip

[cursive gazelle]

Play_sound() takes 3 arguments but idk if they’re optional or not

[cursive gazelle]

I’ll try printing

[ocean sinew]

they are

[ocean sinew]

did you put your mod prefix?

[wispy sparrow]

pretty sure that is the prefix

[normal crest]

Nevermind, do local card = ref.config.ref_table

[cursive gazelle]

Nope

I’ll try 1 sec

[normal crest]

add_to_deck shouldn't be inside calculate

[cursive gazelle]

Wait lmao

I didnt even notice the calculate

Tunnel vision

[wispy sparrow]

oh my god i just realized that after looking at supercell's code which i borrowed the add_to_deck part of it

[split saddle]

How do you pick a random Joker from your held ones?

like in the crimson heart boss

I saw that it has a crimson_heart_chosen function but couldn't find the origin, but that maybe has the answer

[cursive gazelle]

G.jokers.cards

Or G.jokers

[rocky plaza]

local selected_joker = nil
if G.jokers and G.jokers.cards and #G.jokers.cards >= 1 then
  selected_joker = G.jokers.cards[math.random(#G.jokers.cards)]
end

oops

[cursive gazelle]

Isn’t math.random inconvenient

[split saddle]

what about pseudorandom?

[split saddle]

yeah

[rocky plaza]

oh does SMODS have a random func?

[cursive gazelle]

@normal crest thanks i got it working

Much love

[cursive gazelle]

Pseudorandom is the most commonly used

[rocky plaza]

oh

pseudorandom("selection", 1, 5) i think according to how the function is defined would do it?

i mean is there really any significant reason to use pseudorandom over math.random?

oh i guess maybe seeded runs?

ah

[split saddle]

wait, there's a little bit of a problem

what if the joker selects itself?

how do you exclude it from the random pool

i know about the hacky solution of looping over the rng but that is most certainly not it XD

[rocky plaza]

local selected_joker = nil
if G.jokers and G.jokers.cards and #G.jokers.cards >= 1 then
  local pool = {}
  for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
    if G.jokers.cards[i] ~= card then
      pool[#pool + 1] = i
    end
  end
  selected_joker = G.jokers.cards[pool[pseudorandom("insert description of source here", 1, #pool)]]
end

yeah just get a pool of all the indices of jokers that are not itself

then pick a random element from that pool of indices

avoids the hacky solution that is technically not guaranteed to terminate

[split saddle]

cool, thanks 👍

[frosty rampart]

yes, it's generally recommended to use pseudorandom instead of math.random for the sake of keeping seeds intact

[thorn furnace]

How would I go about testing out a certain stake

(Under the assumption I haven't unlocked it yet)

[rocky plaza]

so like testing the unlock condition?

[thorn furnace]

testing the stake itself to make sure it works

It's more I just don't wanna have to beat like 10 stakes

[frosty rampart]

switch to a second profile and unlock all

[thorn furnace]

o

how do i unlock all

[frosty rampart]

profiles are in the very bottom left of the main menu, switch to a fresh profile and there should be an "unlock all" button. if there isn't, you should reset that profile first

[shell timber]

its on the profile screen once you've made it

[thorn furnace]

oh wow it's the profile I was supposed to use for modding before forgetting I had it and using my main

[rocky plaza]

yeah dont ruin your main when u test modded unless ur fine with that

[thorn furnace]

this is bothersome

[rocky plaza]

ah yes invisible stake, my favorite stake to play on

[thorn furnace]

oh

I completely forgot there was supposed to be a stake there

[chrome widget]

Is there an easy way to turn a known reference to a table into its string key? I.E. I want to get a card's area, however, rather than getting the reference to G.jokers or G.consumables, I want to get the string 'jokers' or 'consumeables' which could be used to index the global table. Is there a simpler way to do that that doesn't involve just iterating through the global table and getting the key when the table reference matches?

[modern kindle]

hi winter

[chrome widget]

Hi Dilly!!

[modern kindle]

how are you

[chrome widget]

doing decent ish?

[modern kindle]

why the ish

[chrome widget]

ehh just not my best day I guess. Most days aren't my best days but I don't have any strong, significant feeling about today

[modern kindle]

well, i hope you know youre awesome and epic

[rocky plaza]

i did some looking online, it appears that there is not a convenient way to get "jokers" from G.jokers without iterating through the global table

[normal crest]

If you only care about vanilla areas then you can handle each one individually

[chrome widget]

Shucks, but that's kinda what I expected

[normal crest]

Otherwise, you can create a table when the run starts/loads that contains references to each existing cardarea, and loop through that table rather than G

Assuming no mod creates cardareas after a run starts

[chrome widget]

Too risky an assumption to make

I don't have to worry too much since this is something that seemingly will only ever need to run once when it needs to

(I'm doing an SMODS pr to update the save_with_action function that's kind of underbaked in vanilla)

[normal crest]

Actually maybe you can do something with metatables, using __newindex

Not worth the hassle if it's only ever gonna run once

[chrome widget]

Yeah

Anyway all of this is for a niche as fuck use case where I have a challenge that saves after you use any consumeable, which the base game actively avoids

[rocky plaza]

ok, quick question
is there a way to manipulate the on-screen position of a joker with code?

[plucky zenith]

Couldn't you do something like:

function findStringFromRef( ref )
    for k, v in pairs(G) do
        if ref == v then
            return k
        end
    end
end

[chrome widget]

so

....did you read the thing you replied to or.......

[plucky zenith]

Ahh, I guess I missed the last part of it, yes.

[chrome widget]

anyway

[distant junco]

is it possible to alter the amount of chips cards score?

without using the perma_bones

[chrome widget]

You can directly change card.base.nominal if you need, but it'll reset the next time Card:set_base() or related helper functions are called to the rank default

[faint yacht]

Or hook Card:get_chip_bonus().

[chrome widget]

I ended up doing both for a blind effect that makes chips score 0 base chips for the blind duration

[frosty rampart]

(yes, the d100 genuinely did roll a 9 with advantage there. i reloaded the save with some debug prints to check that, the other roll was a 6)

[distant junco]

basically i want cards to score a random amount of chips. i know how to do the random amount but i just dont know how to put it together.

[rocky plaza]

cataclysmically bad luck on that seed lol

[chrome widget]

function Card:get_chip_bonus()
    if (-- condition whenever this should apply vs default behavior) then
        local old_nom = self.base.nominal
        self.base.nominal = -- put whatever your random generation is here
        local ret = ref_card_bonus(self)
        self.base.nominal = old_nom
        return ret
    end

    return ref_card_bonus(self)
end```

That said the description you showed doesn't reflect this

It says earning chips before your hand scores, which wouldn't be per card. Is this something completely different?

[distant junco]

im guessing that goes in the calculate function, right

[chrome widget]

No, this is a function hook. It goes wherever it can be loaded for your mod

[distant junco]

yeah i want the cards themselves to score randomly. i guess i could just have every card cause the joker to score a random amount of chips if thats not possible

[chrome widget]

If that's what you want, make sure whatever causes this effect is phrased as each card scores +n base chips or w/e

[split saddle]

how do you make a random select joker start with a joker selected?

like how rebate does it but for jokers

the problem is that rebate's thing does it every round and mine should be every hand, so just copying the rebate function won't help

[split saddle]

the specific problem is that at the start of a run, the selected joker is nil, so it kinda crashes when doing logic with it. Ideally, it changes in the background so that when you find it, it doesn't have a default value

[rocky plaza]

what do u want to happen if u have no jokers and this joker appears?

unless this joker cant appear if u dont have a joker

[split saddle]

'none' or something like that

this is in the collection btw

[rare torrent]

how could i make this enchancement give money based on the amount of chips this card scored? ```local diamond = SMODS.Enhancement{
key = "diamond",

loc_txt = {
    name = "Diamond",
    text = {
        "Gives {C:money}Money{} equal to the",
        "amount of {C:chips}Chips{} this card scores"
    }
},

atlas = "diamond",

config = {
    p_dollars = 1,
}

}```

[sonic cedar]

@daring fern I pushed a commit with the current safe_set_ability setup and patch. Maybe it'll be easier to work through and figure out the problem if you can see it directly?

Get back to me when you can ofc

[split saddle]

maybe something with card.ability.nominal + card.ability.perma_bonus, but not exactly sure how

try p_dollars = card.ability.nominal + card.ability.perma_bonus although idk what is the pointer to the card inside of that context

[rocky plaza]

maybe look at vanillaremade and the code for ancient joker

oh

i guess mail in rebate is the same kinda reset

hm

fundamentally the random selection should work the same no matter where u put it

[split saddle]

idea: implement my own reset_game_globals() that is called every hand instead

that sounds like a chore though

[rocky plaza]

another lazy fix is to do the random selection when bought

as well

but u dont get foresight on which joker its copying

also u can do a check to see if the selected joker is nil and return "None"

[split saddle]

but that would only fix the display text issue and not the nil crash as a whole

[rocky plaza]

yeah

[split saddle]

i'm currently looking into this btw

[rocky plaza]

so does it crash when it appears in shop?

[split saddle]

haven't seen it in the shop, but presumably yes

it only crashes when trying to choose a joker for the first time, since it tries to get the name and all the other stuff but gets nil back

[rocky plaza]

does the crash involve trying to index a nil value?

hmm which line of code is causing the crash? is the crash-causing line in your mod?

[cursive gazelle]

How can i add an effect to every deck ingame ?

[split saddle]

attempt to index local 'selected_joker' (a nil value)

[rocky plaza]

huh

theres a bug in the selection code then

[split saddle]

it's kind of weird

because the actual variable gets updated the line before that

so i'm a little confused as to why it's throwing back nil

[rocky plaza]

were u able to access the info of the selected joker right after it was selected (printing the name of the copied joker or something)?

nvm

[normal crest]

hook one of the Back functions

[split saddle]

printing returns nil, unsurprisingly

[rocky plaza]

when u tested this, did you have another joker to copy?

[split saddle]

no, it always was only with no jokers

tested it with more jokers and it did work so that's most likely the culprit

[rocky plaza]

yeah u need to have a nil check then

[cursive gazelle]

I’ve added a flip and a flip all button based on how many cards highlighted, problem is i want to make it into an enhancement now and idk how to code it to update LOL

[split saddle]

or rather, don't run that part if there are no jokers

that sounds more efficient probably

[rocky plaza]

so like
get random joker
see if it is nil
if it is nil then return early
else
do everything else

Any ideas?

I was hoping that would turn into a text file, oof

[rapid stag]

bump

[cursive gazelle]

I think handy has plenty

[split saddle]

https://github.com/SleepyG11/HandyBalatro

[cursive gazelle]

Finally

I made it work

💔 it took one line

[rocky plaza]

can i see the place where the sound is defined?

[split saddle]

you wanna know something funny?

[rocky plaza]

hm?

[split saddle]

the solution was there the whole time

it was 1 before

[rocky plaza]

ah

well that would guarantee there is a joker to copy

[split saddle]

no more crashes now yes

[rocky plaza]

i think we would still need to account for when you have 2 of these and only two of these

[rocky plaza]

hold on show me a place where the sound is played

[snow breach]

We may have got it working

[rocky plaza]

oh

[snow breach]

Nope

[rocky plaza]

different crash message or the same one?

[snow breach]

randomHit() is a function that pulls a random hit sound effect from our files

[rocky plaza]

so ur sure that randomHit() returns a string like "strong1"

[rocky plaza]

also is that the only sound that doesnt work or do all custom sounds not work

[snow breach]

It works

[rocky plaza]

so its not crashing anymore?

[snow breach]

Yup

[rocky plaza]

huh

im curious as to what u changed

[rotund sable]

Hello chat o/

[split saddle]

idk i just linked to what @cursive gazelle said ||(sorry for ping xd)||

[rocky plaza]

real quick, what are you trying to do with the keybind?

[trail tide]

How do i destroy all played face cards after scoring? I'm new to modding balatro so I feel i will be asking a lot of questions here

[rocky plaza]

Card:is_face() checks if a card is a face card

SMODS.destroy_cards(cards) destroys the given cards

[split saddle]

How do you do a mod config option?

[cursive gazelle]

Pretty complicated

[split saddle]

is it like the UI stuff? oof

[normal crest]

very shrimple

create a config.lua file in which you return a table, like return { my_setting = true }

then you can access it in the code by doing SMODS.current_mod.config.my_setting (if during loading stage) or SMODS.Mods.your_mod_id.config.my_setting (outside of loading)

many people make a global variable that's just their mod id to access it more easily

like CardSleeves = SMODS.current_mod during loading

then you'd do CardSleeves.config.my_setting

for the ui you can do

SMODS.current_mod.config_tab = function()
  return {
    n = G.UIT.ROOT,
    nodes = {
      create_toggle {
        label = "hi",
        ref_table = YourGlobalVariable.config,
        ref_value = 'my_setting'
      }
    }
  }
end

assuming you went with the global variable way

[versed swan]

How do you make something run only immediately after the game finishes loading?

[split saddle]

i mean the UI code is scary (for me at least)

[normal crest]

ui looks scary cus there are a lot of config values to make it look good

the ui code I sent won't look good I imagine

but at least it's simple to understand

[split saddle]

what are the placeholder names here?

[normal crest]

label is the text that would be shown next to the toggle
YourGlobalVariable refers to doing YourGlobalVariable = SMODS.current_mod near the top of your main file
'my_setting' is the key of a setting returned from config.lua

also there are other ui elements for configs, not just toggles for booleans, i'm not familiar with the others tho

[rare torrent]

sorry for the late reply but putting that inside the config just straigth up crashes the game, and i tried doing ```config = {
p_dollars = 1,
},

calculate = function(self, card)
    p_dollars = card.ability.nominal
end``` but that does nothing

[split saddle]

idk then. i was kinda just guessing bc i haven't done anything with enhancements

[normal crest]

what do you want the enhancement to do

[rare torrent]

basically it's suposed to get the amount of chips the card scores, and give the amount of money based on that

[normal crest]

when the card with the enhancement scores?

[rare torrent]

yeah

[normal crest]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.main_scoring and context.cardarea == G.play and not SMODS.has_no_rank(card) then
        return { dollars = card.base.nominal } 
    end
end

should be smt like this, without your config

[rare torrent]

that works perfectly, thank you!

[split saddle]

you forgot to account for hiker !!!!

return {dollars = card.base.nominal + card.ability.perma_bonus}

[normal crest]

if you want that, replace card.base.nominal with card:get_chip_bonus()

[modern kindle]

i made a dastardly misread there which made me do a violent double take

[rocky plaza]

huh

oh no

[modern kindle]

lets walk through it together, what else could start with 'hi' and end with 'er' that someone who only glanced could see

[rocky plaza]

i just realized that 💀

[modern kindle]

i was just sitting ehre listening to music and playing and then glanced over cause i saw a message appear and saw that lmao

[cursive gazelle]

Higher ?

[modern kindle]

so true

[cursive gazelle]

Can you help me rephrase this

“This card can see beyond what you can see “

[slim ferry]

what is that even SUPPOSED to mean

[cursive gazelle]

Working on something

[rocky plaza]

??? is this supposed to be like an effect that lets you preview the next reroll or something?

[cursive gazelle]

I would say better

I’m not sure what effect i should associate with them

My ideas aren’t organized yet

[velvet verge]

Hi, today I installed the Balatro Mod Manager and it keeps loading mods all the time. Why could that be?

I've already reinstalled it 3 times

[cursive gazelle]

I wish i was good at art as i am in coding

[cursive gazelle]

Ask in #⚙・modding-general

[rocky plaza]

quick question, what do you mean by them?

[cursive gazelle]

The cards

[split saddle]

i was told a while ago that quantum enhancements are broken, is that still the case?

[rocky plaza]

joker cards, tarot cards, spectrals, or a new kind of consumable?

[normal crest]

in what way are they broken

[split saddle]

don't work

[cursive gazelle]

I can technically either make a shader and make it an enhancement or make it an enhancement (which i already did for testing )

[normal crest]

to my knowledge they work

[cursive gazelle]

I can apply it to any card currently

[normal crest]

where did you hear this

[modern kindle]

yea as far as ive known they havent been broken

[split saddle]

someone told me this here

[rocky plaza]

oh, an edition-like enhancement, hmmm

[split saddle]

but it was a bit long ago already

[cursive gazelle]

“This card perceives what lies beyond your vision.”

I feel like this is a little vague

[rocky plaza]

hmm ur gonna have to clarify what it can see

otherwise it feels like flavor text

[cursive gazelle]

Anyways i’ll post a video of the mechanics tomorrow since its mind night i might aswell post a documentation on how to add buttons to cards and hook functions to them

[split saddle]

what's wrong with this here then? it currently does nothing

[cursive gazelle]

Because people’s codes are kinda lacking

When it comes to comments

[rocky plaza]

use SMODS.has_enhancement(context.other_card, "m_stone"

[chrome widget]

Absolutely don't do that, it will cause an infinite loop and crash the game

[maiden phoenix]

Do you have the optional feature of quantum enhancements enabled?

[chrome widget]

It's likely you just never set it to be enabled yeah

[split saddle]

where do you do that?

[chrome widget]

SMODS.optional_features.quantum_enhancements = true

I just put it at the top of my main file

[rocky plaza]

hold on what exactly does quantum_enhancements do?

[split saddle]

it should be on by default....

[maiden phoenix]

It makes enhancements count as others

[maiden phoenix]

It's very ressource-heavy

The more cards you have the laggier it gets for some

[cursive gazelle]

I think they keep their value

[maiden phoenix]

(or that was fixed idk)

[split saddle]

two (or more) enhancements for the same card

in this case, gold and stone

[chrome widget]

Quantum enhancements are temporarily given enhancements for the duration of scoring steps and then returned to their original values, essentially. So it acts like having multiple enhancements that only exist at the time of scoring

[maiden phoenix]

That explains it better 😅

[rocky plaza]

so like if a steel face card was played and u had a midas' mask, it would be temporarily treated as having both?

[maiden phoenix]

You could make a Joker do that, but it doesn't impact vanilla Jokers

[chrome widget]

No

[rocky plaza]

what do u mean by temporary enhancements

[chrome widget]

That's how it works under the hood

[maiden phoenix]

It's mostly used for jokers that goes "Steel cards counts as Gold cards"

for example

[rocky plaza]

oooohhhhhh

ok i get it

[chrome widget]

With quantum enhancements enabled, whenever enhancements would score, it sends a context to all valid receivers (context.check_enhancement) which can then send back keys of enhancements for the current card to also be counted as. Then, during the scoring step, it saves the card's actual enhancement and values, then temporarily uses set_ability with each of the provided keys, scores it as that new enhancement, and then returns the original enhancement and values

So cards do not have permanent values set by their quantum enhancements. The others only exist as long as they're needed for scoring, then removed

[rocky plaza]

is there documentation available for quantum enhancements that i can read?

[split saddle]

it's really cool :D

[chrome widget]

It's on the wiki, in the current calculate functions page. It has a thing for check_enhancements though a better version of it is on the way

[split saddle]

why did it record like that :(

[rocky plaza]

real quick, how would i use context.check_enhancement to treat all played mult cards as bonus cards for instance?

[maiden phoenix]

Take this but swap the keys

[cursive gazelle]

Add +40 chips manually with context.individual

[rocky plaza]

ah

[maiden phoenix]

Don't forget to enable that feature too

[cursive gazelle]

Since you can’t have multiple enhancements

At the same time

[maiden phoenix]

You can tho

[slim ferry]

you can with quantum enhancements

[maiden phoenix]

It's what we've been talking about for the last 5 mins lol

[cursive gazelle]

You can do anything if you can spare the time and effort

[slim ferry]

what??

[hidden sable]

an actual doc?

[slim ferry]

its a built-in smods feature

[faint yacht]

Literally the backbone of this deck.

[cursive gazelle]

Really?

[slim ferry]

yeah??

[cursive gazelle]

Is it documented?

[slim ferry]

yeah that was JUST sent

[wintry solar]

what is reading

[slim ferry]

balatro fans cant read..

[primal robin]

who is reading

[wintry solar]

I wish I had eyes

[cursive gazelle]

[slim ferry]

ldksnjfkjihaew LMAOF 😭

[cursive gazelle]

I’m sorry i didn’t pay attention

[rocky plaza]

is this page accessible from the steamodded wiki? i cant find a link to the page in the imagr

[red flower]

it's eremels secret docs he doesn't want to share because he's hoarding all the information to himself

[red flower]

info_queue, it's in the localization docs

[modern kindle]

im surprised you beat it so soon, is it a short game?

[red flower]

there's an achievement for beating it in 2

[modern kindle]

zamn

[maiden phoenix]

Slowpoke

[red flower]

annapurna games are nice

i like when games are 6 hours at most

[maiden phoenix]

How do you consume someone in the friendly way?

[modern kindle]

[rocky plaza]

with consent

[maiden phoenix]

little nibbles

[modern kindle]

70 hours you say....

[rare torrent]

[red flower]

thank you for the birthday gift

[modern kindle]

u will get many more but u are welcome

[cursive gazelle]

Very wholesome modding chat

[modern kindle]

N has been a nice pal for awhile in here it feels like

at least since ive been in here
and i like seein him and consider us buddy pal friends so why not treat him

[verbal ermine]

sorry this is unrelated but how should i go about adding a standard card with an enhancement to any area?

i'm seeing alot of different ways so i'm a tad confused

[cursive gazelle]

Smods.add_card

Or create_card

Check wiki for details

[verbal ermine]

i'll see if i can find anything else on create card

[daring fern]

SMODS.add_card({set = "Base", enhancement = "m_modprefix_key", area = area})

[modern kindle]

hi smt

how are you my pal

[verbal ermine]

ah wait the documentation was in Booster pack

thank you regardless somethingcom

[maiden phoenix]

Happy birth

[modern kindle]

N reached a whole 4 years old today

[red flower]

i was going to repeat that as a funny haha but im worried about discord banning me

[modern kindle]

lmfao

thats my real gift, getting you banned

[maiden phoenix]

Free from discord hell

[verbal ermine]

in this context what does set mean? asking because when i last used this it was indexing nil for center and i'm usure if that has to do with the area or set

[maiden phoenix]

set is the category the card belongs to, like "Tarot" or "Planet"

[cursive gazelle]

How can i test if context.other_card has an enhancement?

[daring fern]

A specific enhancement or any enhancement?

[mental nacelle]

is there a context for after a consumable is used?

[cursive gazelle]

Specific (modded)

[maiden phoenix]

context.using_consumeable

context.consumeable is the card used

[chrome widget]

Added a force save for consumables for the purposes of a challenge. Now it records consumables as an action the same way that opening booster packs does so you can't save scum them

[verbal ermine]

oh! so is "Base" referring to standard cards or is there a list of proper calls for them all

[modern kindle]

well now how do i break this

[mental nacelle]

i'm trying to rewrite jokers that debuff every card in a suit but the debuff doesn't appear to work after a consumable is used

[maiden phoenix]

Base is for default cards yes

[normal crest]

set can be any pool, also allows "Base", "Playing Card" or "Enhanced" for playing cards

[maiden phoenix]

You can find all set easily in game.lua

[daring fern]

SMODS.has_enhancement(context.other_card, "m_modprefix_key")

[slim ferry]

base is for unenhanced playing cards specifically

you can do enhanced to get one with a random enhancement or just "playing card" to roll an enhancement or not based on the default standard pack enhancement rate

[cursive gazelle]

Thanks , that’s what i was using i had the mod prefix and m flipped

[verbal ermine]

ahh alright tysm ! writing this down for future

i am recieving this error and i don't exactly understand why

[normal crest]

your enhancement key is wrong

should be m_modprefix_key

[thorn furnace]

I've noticed something a bit strange with one of my scripts
For some reason, when the context triggers for the Joker, it triggers the effects twice
The context is just skip_blind
Should i be adding a second context

[cursive gazelle]

Did not work

Sadly

[daring fern]

Code?

[maiden phoenix]

Print "context" see what's the other one triggered

[cursive gazelle]

        if context.individual and cardarea==G.play and SMODS.has_enhancement(context.other_card,"m_aao_p_flip_card") == true then
            return {
                xmult = 2
            }    
        end
    end,```

[thorn furnace]

oki

[normal crest]

context.cardarea, not just cardarea

[cursive gazelle]

i see

[normal crest]

also == true is unnecessary

[cursive gazelle]

I know i added it just because it didn’t work first time

[thorn furnace]

hm
Printing it only triggers once

[wintry solar]

what's your code?

[cursive gazelle]

Works

Thanks

[thorn furnace]

Very spaghetti
Hold on

It doesn't use context the way you normally do because it has specifics to it

for action_name, action_list in pairs(ALLOY.actions) do
  for _, entry in ipairs(action_list) do
    local ok = true
    for _, clause in ipairs(entry.context) do
      if type(clause) == "string" then
        if not context[clause] then
          ok = false
          break
        end
      elseif type(clause) == "table" then
        if context[clause.key] ~= clause.value then
          ok = false
          break
        end
      else
        print("[ALLOY] Invalid context clause:", tostring(clause))
      end
    end
                
    if not ok then
      goto continue_entry
    end
                
    if action_name == "health_drain" then ALLOY.ease_health(entry.value)
    elseif action_name == "shield_drain" then ALLOY.ease_shield(entry.value)
    elseif action_name == "dot" then ALLOY.ease_damage(entry.value)
    end
                
    print(context)
        
    ::continue_entry::
  end
end

[cursive gazelle]

Is there a way to remove the xmult display ?

[cursive gazelle]

I want to replace it with something else

[daring fern]

So you want it to say something other than Xnumber Mult?

[cursive gazelle]

Yes

[verbal ermine]

if the case how does stuff like this work in Vremade jokers?

[thorn furnace]

the context for this is just

ALLOY.set_action = function(action, context_tbl, val)
  table.insert(ALLOY.actions[action], { context = context_tbl, value = val })
end

[daring fern]

Then you would use xmult_message

How did you get it so fast

[cursive gazelle]

Too late

[cursive gazelle]

Mrbeast promo code

What a nice guy

[livid scroll]

mrbeast scam

[livid scroll]

slow

[keen karma]

What does can_repeat_soul mean?

[keen karma]

MrBeast crypto scam

[red flower]

it allows soul-type cards to repeat without showman iirc

[keen karma]

Ah

[modern kindle]

do we finally have gif perms again :o

[red flower]

no thats a webp

[modern kindle]

oh

[keen karma]

I don't check the GitHub page often.

[red flower]

well you should

[keen karma]

Yeah, I should.

[cursive gazelle]

Make a project and test everything in the wiki

[distant junco]

Is it possible to check if a card has a perma bonus

[keen karma]

Anyway, how would I go about giving a card a percent chance to appear in place of The Soul, and nowhere else?

[keen karma]

wili

[red flower]

yeah just check for card.ability.perma_whatever

[distant junco]

Make it legendary?

Wait no I read that wrong

Lol

[verbal ermine]

ahp figured out the issue , what am i doing wrong with this? i can call "m_stone" fine with add_card but i can't called m_bubble which means i'm missing something

[red flower]

if its in place of the soul then you would need to patch/hook create_card i think
i dont think the player will notice if you just make it a rarer the soul tho

[thorn furnace]

i think this might be too niche of a usage for me to get help :/
Uhh
Does context.skip_blind and context.cardarea = G.jokers work as a valid context do you think
like if I specify it

[slim ferry]

why would you need a cardarea check in skip_blind

[daring fern]

Yes, you're missing your mod prefix.

[thorn furnace]

because skip_blind triggers twice

idk

[slim ferry]

wierd

[verbal ermine]

oh shoot i really should stop taking reference from Vremade in that case i missed that part

[keen karma]

I suppose I could try that, at least until I get the intended way working.

[slim ferry]

i mean it is good reference still

its just that it doesnt use the vanillaremade card modifiers when applying modifiers

because apparently it confused people when trying to apply vanilla stuff to cards

[red flower]

yeah, i will clarify that on the wiki tho

[modern kindle]

gosh get the wiki done by yesterday already

[thorn furnace]

I figured it out
context.main_eval

didnt even kno u needed that here but it works

[red flower]

i was busy being a cat

[maiden phoenix]

I mean yea

[inner cobalt]

I read context.main_evil

[thorn furnace]

:3

my stakes are now even harder

[inner cobalt]

makes your code EVIL

(it doesn’t work anymore)

? https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/03e2109c3c7a8499c8bb3b7566ceb86e83f27879/src/card_ui.lua#L501

[rapid stag]

alright, so question

let's say i have a locked joker that appears in collections.
if i open up collections to the page where that joker is, if i do SMODS.find_card() with that joker's key, will that return the joker?

[red flower]

no, i dont think so

[rapid stag]

or does it only look at the run cardareas

[red flower]

im pretty sure its only cardareas

[rapid stag]

hmmm. so how can i tell if a specific locked card object is present either on the main menu or in collections

[red flower]

what's the goal

[rapid stag]

i want to have something that's unlocked by pressing alt + f4 with it onscreen (whether via it appearing on main menu or looking at it in collections)

i have capturing the alt + f4 worked out in theory, but i'm stumped on how to determine whether the object in question is present

[red flower]

you can do the unlock in that card's update function

that's always run if it's on screen

i dont know if it reaches there before the game closes tho

[cursive gazelle]

Isn’t closing the game an event

Its a bit tricky to find an easy solution

[rapid stag]

[verbal ermine]

what's proper syntax for setting prefix under an enhancement? i'm finding very little on it

[cursive gazelle]

m_?

[rapid stag]

hm? enhancement prefix is m_
modded enhancements are m_<mod prefix>_

i feel like we need a bit more context for this

[verbal ermine]

sure! i think just saying m_ or m_prefix confuses me quite abit because like how do write that with something is it m-('name') or is there something before it,
just trying to set prefix to this

[rapid stag]

oh, when you use SMODS.Enhancement, the prefixes are automatically added

[cursive gazelle]

For none modded
m_prefix
For modded
m_mod prefix_enhencementkey

Prefixes are automatically done you don’t need to set them up

[rapid stag]

so as written there, the item's prefix in-game will be m_<your mod prefix>_bubble

[daring fern]

No, it's your mod prefix.

[verbal ermine]

i was just going to say, should be calling it like that?

[rapid stag]

oop

[cursive gazelle]

This is what you should be calling it

[slim ferry]

when referring to it yes

[cursive gazelle]

Make sure its a string tho

[slim ferry]

the prefixes are automatically added in the enhancement def though

[verbal ermine]

i'll report back in that case, tysm for ya'lls help

srry for the confusion

[cursive gazelle]

Np

[rapid stag]

if you have debugplus, you can check this for yourself - with what you've shown, you could launch balatro and do eval G.P_CENTERS.m_<your mod prefix>_bubble and it should return your enhancement

[rapid stag]

i found this in button_callbacks

idk if alt f4 calls it though

[cursive gazelle]

I think love has it

Event.quit() should have alt+f4 integrated not just the “X” in window ui and quit button

[vast bough]

what is the default pixel size for boosters because mine look blurry, is it just the standard card size (91x75)

[rapid stag]

although even if i hook quit, how do i distinguish between alt f4 and quitting any other way

[cursive gazelle]

I think its bigger

[rapid stag]

would that be where the keybind comes in

[normal crest]

71x95

[vast bough]

also how would i go about generating boosters mid game, idk if debug plus can do this but it seems like it cant and i need to spawn them in

[normal crest]

it's made bigger ingame

[vast bough]

same difference haha

[slim ferry]

wdym

[cursive gazelle]

There should be and event for clicked keys

Look for
key down alt
Key down f4

[rapid stag]

love.keyboard.isDown()?

[verbal ermine]

i see where i all went wrong it's the fact my json file was updating WRONG! it was updating to a seperate folder when i updated the prefix

[cursive gazelle]

I’m not sure i haven’t used love

Check for keyboard input capturing in love 2d documentation

[rapid stag]

yeah, i'm looking at it

[cursive gazelle]

Good luck

Problem is will it even be saved ?

[red flower]

i hooked love.event.quit and it got called when quitting from the menu but not alt+f4

[cursive gazelle]

Strange
Since the game closes when you press alt f4

[red flower]

it might be some other OS api stuff

[rapid stag]

now, my thoughts are at doing something likelua love.keyboard.isDown{ 'lalt', 'ralt' } and love.keyboard.isDown{ 'f4' }in the card's update func

[red flower]

love.quit does get called

[vast bough]

does anyone know

[modern kindle]

you could prob prevent it by returning true on it as well cant you

[red flower]

:3

[red flower]

it can in the shop

[rapid stag]

oh, this was with the card in collections/on the main menu?

[red flower]

no, in-game

[rapid stag]

ah

[red flower]

but it means it can find the card at least so you should be able to do what you want

[vast bough]

you can just spawn them in when youre in the shop?

[red flower]

ye

[red flower]

idk how safe it is to save when the game is quitting tho

[cursive gazelle]

Would their achievement be saved tho

[modern kindle]

cant you just delay the quit to save

[red flower]

it would need to save manually in the hook

[cursive gazelle]

I see

[red flower]

i think so

[cursive gazelle]

I don’t think that would work of be efficient

[rapid stag]

i can't just set a var in mod config inside the quit hook and hope it saves that way?

[red flower]

let us know how it goes :3

[rapid stag]

[maiden phoenix]

I hate UI

I have a joker mechanism, but the description crashes on the second hover

[red flower]

why the second one 😭

[maiden phoenix]

I get this

[red flower]

are you showing a card

or something like that

[maiden phoenix]

I think it's because I'm not saving the metadata, but if I do save it, continuing the run will remove the mechanism

[maiden phoenix]

Hovering it

[red flower]

i mean in the description

[maiden phoenix]

No

I'm trying to get a joker's desc into a multibox

I think generate_UIBox is adding something the game doesn't like after the first exec

[red flower]

oh then it might be what i thought

i think the uibox gets destroyed after unhovering

you need to recreate it every time

[maiden phoenix]

Interesting, how do I tie it to a card tho? Since I do all the generating during a consumable use

[red flower]

cant you save the key on the card or something

thats what i do for my transfer ability mechanic

[maiden phoenix]

true maybe, I'll try 👍

Wait you can generate an UIBox from the key alone?

Or like do you want me to do it from G.P_CENTERS? (if it exists but I doubt)

[red flower]

you would probably need to make a new card to do it like you're doing

[maiden phoenix]

Creating a card just to show a desc then remove it?

[red flower]

yeah

i dont know enough about what you're doing haha
let me show you how i do mine which might be better

something like this, basically I generate the description box from the center

i did some changes because i dont actually use the main joker description

[rapid stag]

doesn't work, i need to force a mod config save before actually calling the quit function

[red flower]

it looks like this

[verbal ermine]

it allll turned out nicely

[rapid stag]

anyone know how to force the mod config to save

wait

what if i put the quit call in an event

[manic rune]

p sure theres a function to save mod config

[sturdy compass]

Anybody know of any examples of custom card areas implementing negative edition functionality?

[cursive gazelle]

I don’t think there’s room to add more Cardareas

[manic rune]

yeah its SMOODS.save_mod_config(mod)

[sturdy compass]

I have the card area made, I'm just trying to make it work properly with negatives

[manic rune]

odd, i had the opposite issue lmfao

wanted negative editions to not increase the area's card limit

[sturdy compass]

Huh

[plain ember]

WHAT THE FUCK, A YUGIOH MOD?

[cursive gazelle]

You got fans N

[sturdy compass]

[maiden phoenix]

Can I use localize instead of desc_from_rows for multiboxes?

[red flower]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1338302514616995892

[sturdy compass]

Ok shit just got weird
It's incrementing G.consumeables instead

Just now noticed that

[red flower]

yeah, it's missing a bit just after the screenshot where I save the nodes after the first one in full_UI.table.multi_box

[manic rune]

you might want to make sure card.area(?) is not G.consumeables lol

[red flower]

i would link you to what i do but it's in a lot of hooks and patches lol

[manic rune]

oh does negative edition not just increase card limit of card.area??

[sturdy compass]

I think it boils down to my emplace hook but I'm not sure why

[red flower]

no, it's hardcoded i think

[manic rune]

sob

can we have a patch for this one :3

[nimble gyro]

question for yall: making a joker that gains XMult when a king of spades or clubs is played. Weird bug where if blueprint/brainstorm is copying it, it gains twice the mult its supposed to. Wrote a bit to check if the xmult increase has already been applied but that'll stop it gaining with retriggers like hanging chad or if more than one was played in that hand, anyone have any other ideas to solve?

[red flower]

if not context.blueprint

[normal crest]

that is certainly one of the codes of all time

you don't need to check that context exists, within context.repetition context.other_card always exists too

and it will always be a Card object, so you don't need to check that it's a table, or has the get_id function or has a suit

[nimble gyro]

ok thanks. first mod so still figuring stuff out

[red flower]

card = self is not crashing?

[normal crest]

cus context.previously_triggered is not a thing

nvm

[red flower]

oh yeah

[normal crest]

it says not, didn't see that

still, that's just always true

[maiden phoenix]

What does the colour crash mean again in UI?

[faint yacht]

local is_clubs_or_spades = card:is_suit('Clubs') or card:is_suit('Spades') to simplify and not need local is_wild_card_effect.

[unborn bay]

your node layout is wrong i think

[red flower]

too nested

[unborn bay]

context.blueprint vs context.blueprint_card who's winning the twerk off

someone should update the calccontext lsp docs

[red flower]

i dont use either because i disable blueprint:3

[floral flame]

Hey thank you so much for your help. I figured out the issue and it was totally my fault.
I neglected to test the parts piece-by-piece and it turns out that Malverk wasn't installed correctly. I fixed that up and all of a sudden, everything started working as expected.

[maiden phoenix]

Huh lmfao

[normal crest]

funny alignment

[maiden phoenix]

I'm trying stuff up but I should look at desc_from_rows again

Never made my own UI nodes before

[sturdy compass]

Oh thats why it's HARDCODED 😭

[red flower]

yeah

[oak meadow]

is there a way to check how many cards discarded when you do something on context.discard

[red flower]

#context.full_hand

[manic rune]

should i make a patch/hook pr to have it increase the card limit of its actual cardarea instead...

[oak meadow]

do i have to have a return with card = card in it to save a value into the card

[plain ember]

Evening evening, Is there a way to make a joker spin like when a card gets affected by a tarot card? please

[manic rune]

-# actually anyone can do it, it just sounds annoying for it to not do that

[manic rune]

:flip() twice

[plain ember]

thx! but does it has any arguments?

[red flower]

no

[manic rune]

what does this mean

sob

[plain ember]

And there's a way to make it spin faster?

[oak meadow]

some of the examples in smods have
return
{
(stuff for the message thing below the joker)
card = card
}

[red flower]

it's done through events, i would recommend looking at the tarot code

[normal crest]

old examples

[red flower]

you never need card = whatever

[manic rune]

you dont need card = card brav

[oak meadow]

ok ty

[normal crest]

the smods examples of jokers should just be changed to point towards vanilla remade at this point

[plain ember]

I'll do, thanks!

[sturdy compass]

That would be fantastic

[nimble gyro]

does this apply for brainstorm or do i need a separate check

[red flower]

it does

[nimble gyro]

sweet thanks

[red flower]

or any other blueprint like

[red flower]

i dont say this because i would be biased : )

[oak meadow]

its True... though

[maiden phoenix]

I'm not, play VanillaRemade 🫡

[sturdy compass]

Ugh I hate making invasive patches like that
At least it works now

[sonic musk]

hi, how do you guys do glass visuals?

[daring fern]

What do you mean?

[sonic musk]

im trynna understand how to make this visual

the

see through

[junior loom]

Search the SMODS document

[daring fern]

I'm pretty sure the sprite just has to be transparent.

[plucky zenith]

I'm trying to track and understand the functionality of Boosters when they're opened through close. I see the UI being created using something like G.booster_pack = UIBox {...} The cards are put into a cardArea of G.pack_cards. And I see how if you skip the booster then G.FUNCS.skip_booster runs a calculate context that you can hook into and then calls G.FUNCS.end_consumeable(e) which seems to remove the UI - G.booster_pack:remove()

What I can't seem to find is how the UI is removed if cards are actually chosen? I'm trying to do something when a booster closes.

[oak meadow]

if my_pos and G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1] and not SMODS.is_eternal(G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1], card) and not G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1].getting_sliced then
                local sliced_card = G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1]
                sliced_card.getting_sliced = true -- Make sure to do this on destruction effects
                G.GAME.joker_buffer = G.GAME.joker_buffer - 1
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    func = function()
                        G.GAME.joker_buffer = 0
                        card.ability.extra.mult = card.ability.extra.mult + sliced_card.sell_cost * 2
                        card:juice_up(0.8, 0.8)
                        sliced_card:start_dissolve({ HEX("57ecab") }, nil, 1.6)
                        play_sound('slice1', 0.96 + math.random() * 0.08)
                        return true
                    end
                }))
end

would inserting this into my code cause it to work like ceremonial dagger (im just confused because i dont know how add_event works and i wanna make sure (assuming we have all the variables required and stuffszsd))

[red flower]

if this is just the code from vremade then yes

[oak meadow]

ok yeah it pretty much is but i changed the position of the end to not make the message happen

ty

[versed swan]

How do you change blind to a specified one in DebugPlus?

[red flower]

Press 3 over the blind in the collection while in the blind select screen

[versed swan]

oh, sweet, thanks

[rocky plaza]

hey, is there a way to directly manipulate the onscreen position of a joker?

[oak meadow]

return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xchips, card.ability.extra.xmult, card.ability.extra.xmultup, card.ability.extra.route, ((card.ability.extra.route == 0 and 'Neutral') or card.ability.extra.route == 1 and 'Pacifist') or card.ability.extra.route == 2 and 'Genocide' } }
this line is in my local vars
what is casuing this crash

[rocky plaza]

you're sure it's that joker specifically?

[oak meadow]

yes

that line is 388

error happens when i hover over joker

[normal crest]

what's the entire loc_vars function

[oak meadow]

ok specifically: it happens on card.ability.extra.xchips
i think it happens on all of them tbh but thats the first one

loc_vars = function(self, card, contexts)
return {
vars = {
card.ability.extra.xchips,
card.ability.extra.xmult,
card.ability.extra.xmultup,
card.ability.extra.route,
((card.ability.extra.route == 0 and 'Neutral') or card.ability.extra.route == 1 and 'Pacifist') or
card.ability.extra.route == 2 and 'Genocide'
}
}
end

[rocky plaza]

oh

[oak meadow]

wait

[normal crest]

(self, info_queue, card)

[oak meadow]

i used calculate

[normal crest]

are the parameters

[oak meadow]

common instance of me being stupid and thats the problem:

i have no idea what im doing wrong
idk man
if context.discard and card.ability.extra.route == 0 then -- gets here print('in genocide set') if my_pos and G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1] and not SMODS.is_eternal(G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1], card) and not G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1].getting_sliced then print('in kill script') local sliced_card = G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1] sliced_card.getting_sliced = true -- Make sure to do this on destruction effects print('route:') card.ability.extra.route = 2 print(card.ability.extra.route) G.GAME.joker_buffer = G.GAME.joker_buffer - 1 G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({ func = function() print('in xmult edit') G.GAME.joker_buffer = 0 card.ability.extra.xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult + #context.full_hand * card.ability.extra.xmultup print('xmult:') print(card.ability.extra.xmult) card:juice_up(0.8, 0.8) sliced_card:start_dissolve({ HEX("57ecab") }, nil, 1.6) play_sound('slice1', 0.96 + math.random() * 0.08) return true end })) end end
why doesnt it go into the card killing script (there is a card to the right of it which can be killed)

[normal crest]

where'd you define my_pos

[oak meadow]

ah

just another thing i need to STEEL HEHEHEHE from ceremonial dagger

[turbid maple]

There's no easy way to modify the return table of another Joker from a Joker effect right

This is lovely territory

[daring fern]

No, there is an easy way.

[turbid maple]

Do I just modify other_ret

[daring fern]

Yes.

[turbid maple]

yippee it works

was there a change the last time I asked someone said no

[manic rune]

its always been like that afaik

[turbid maple]

I do end up needing to patch because I have to interact with shit triggering at the cashout screen

gaah!

[manic rune]

:3

[oak meadow]

i have a joker that changes a value (doesnt let blueprint do it) then uses it in the very same if statement as the next if statement (its weird)
i also have another if statement
my problem is that blueprint isn't working if i havent already set that value outside
if i swap the two if statements, will that fix it? or do i need to do smth else

this is probably very confusing im gonna send some code for it

            if card.ability.extra.route == 0 and not context.blueprint then
                card.ability.extra.route = 1
            end
            if card.ability.extra.route == 1 then
                return {
                    xchips = 2,
                    xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
                }
            end
            if card.ability.extra.route == 2 then
                return {
                    xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
                }
            end
        end

[neat leaf]

Can I have a text input in my Config section? I'm working on a debugging mod and I want to allow the user to customize the filename pattern.

If so, does anyone know of any mods that do this?

[oak meadow]

just brute forced it lol

[iron burrow]

Hey does anyone know how to run balatro programatically with proton on linux?

#!/usr/bin/env bash

export STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH="$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/2379780"
export STEAM_COMPAT_CLIENT_INSTALL_PATH="$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata"

"$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Proton 9.0 (Beta)/proton" run "$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/2379780/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/Balatro"

I am trying to start it up from the terminal with proton but it fails to start. I assume the balatro.exe directory is incorrect?

[short girder]

folks, is there a context for using a certain consumable type?

[rocky plaza]

if context.using_consumeable and context.consumeable.ability.set == "consumable type here" then

[short girder]

gotcha

one last thing: is it possible to manage arrays inside SMODS.(type) using dot syntax? (like creating a table and referencing a specific field of it in calculate later)

[rocky plaza]

You would do card.config.center.(insert field to get here)

so like card.config.center.pos would get the table for its position in the atlas

[short girder]

oh gotcha

[ivory citrus]

Hello, how i can do a sprite of a legendary joker

[lament agate]

i was trying my best to not use that word in my mod and here it is 😭

[rough furnace]

soul_pos

[modern kindle]

woah is that john debug

[rough furnace]

no

[ivory citrus]

Like this?

[rough furnace]

no on the joker

like pos

[glad osprey]

what the fuck is that key

[ivory citrus]

The background does not appear

[glad osprey]

did you do soul_pos

[manic rune]

soul sprite is on the same atlas, you dont need to define anything else except for key, path, px and py

[ivory citrus]

It's for a Chilean YouTuber

[glad osprey]

also ngl you should really rename the joker

[clear ocean]

Said John Debug with a funny face mask (googly eyes and all)

[manic rune]

questionable

but anyways, your joker should have both pos and soul_pos

[glad osprey]

pos for the bg, soul for the fg

[high sinew]

Not sure if modify_hand function is the one for blinds if you want after scoring for cards/jokers is there a diff function?

[manic rune]

what r u trying to do

[manic rune]

why are there two paths

😭

why r there two atlases

you only need one

[glad osprey]

also really change the jokers name

[ivory citrus]

Sorry

[true jasper]

I second this

[ivory citrus]

But if there are two images

[manic rune]

i third that

[high sinew]

I just want the boss blind to be after everything scoring

[ivory citrus]

How will you recognize the two?

[loud pewter]

i forth it

[manic rune]

the sprites are all in the same image file, no?

[ivory citrus]

No

[glad osprey]

omg do tou have every joker in a different image

[ivory citrus]

Yes

[manic rune]

:3 make them into one image file like an atlas then

[glad osprey]

you are beyond saving

[true jasper]

😶

[true jasper]

true

[ivory citrus]

What do you mean by that emoji?

[glad osprey]

you misunderstand the purpose of an atlas

its meant to be a big image of alot of different smaller images

[true jasper]

Blank of emotions, you're beyond cooked 🔥

[ivory citrus]

ahhh

like this?

[manic rune]

yes

[true jasper]

YES

[glad osprey]

yes 😭

[manic rune]

hi dil

[ivory citrus]

but if I need to put in a new joker

[modern kindle]

hi bepper the bepser

[glad osprey]

THEN ADD IT TO THE IMAGE

[manic rune]

or do what nxkoo is doing and have like, a gazillion small atlases

[ivory citrus]

Don't yell at me, I know I'm stupid.

[manic rune]

super inefficient but kind of works

[true jasper]

Don't do that 🙁

[modern kindle]

i mean not even kinda works, it does work

[manic rune]

shrug

[modern kindle]

its just not as smooth

[glad osprey]

it does

but like

don't do it

[manic rune]

yeah, no reason to do that at all

asides from you being lazy as hell

to bother compiling all the sprites into one image

which should only take like 30s top

[glad osprey]

really the only reason to have separate atlas is if they have different sprite sizes or if its like jokers compared to tarots

[modern kindle]

time is money, we save all the time we can

[glad osprey]

no we spend it all the second we get it

[ivory citrus]

Ah

i hate this sistem

i hate coding

[glad osprey]

then dont do it

[manic rune]

we all hate coding sometimes

[modern kindle]

it isnt so bad, you grow use to it

[manic rune]

:3

[ivory citrus]

thanks

[modern kindle]

i think discouraging someone isnt the way to go here really

everyone starts somewhere

[ivory citrus]

I don't mean it, I'm just venting.

[lament agate]

dont do this btw

[glad osprey]

even the twink agrees

[manic rune]

twinkoo

[lament agate]

im a living example of the broken condom and went hell on the documentation

[manic rune]

i wholly agree

[glad osprey]

I Holy agree

[true jasper]

I‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ agree

[faint yacht]

I e

[manic rune]

ë

[lament agate]

also dont call me this

[manic rune]

we collecting every somethingcom's letter reactions with this one

[glad osprey]

like fr or part of the bit

[manic rune]

fuck em pokedex, gotta find them all™

[rough furnace]

false

[manic rune]

you are one of the rare exceptions wilson

:3

[glad osprey]

as am i

I hate coding all the time

[rough furnace]

there are 2 types of people

[manic rune]

those who know how to shader and those who dont

[faint yacht]

-# there are people

[true jasper]

the people with too many decks and the people without

[lament agate]

la passion

[high sinew]

Can modify hand for blinds only apps before jokers and cards calculation?
