oh thats a context? neat let me try

damn that works thank you very much

[final jewel]

It's pretty weird like I have this joker that do'es the same thing

[sturdy compass]

I also had no clue that was a context 😭

[red flower]

all the blind functions have contexts now basically

although it would be nice to have the docs for them :3

[umbral zodiac]

is there a function i can hook to change the cost of anything you have to buy

[red flower]

card:set_cost?

[umbral zodiac]

oh right i forgot lmao

ty

[wintry solar]

soonTM

[red flower]

no yeah that looks like something messing with set_ability

[final jewel]

yeah

[sturdy compass]

I mean, set_ability creates a new instance of the ability, does it not? Why would it copy values?

[red flower]

i dont recall if set_ability or copy_card but one of those keeps the values of the original

i mean, copy_card does but i dont remember if it's set_ability's doing

the problem is not that theyre being reset, its that they're being upgraded

[sturdy compass]

I wonder, does it carry over the ability table before or after the set_ability call?

[final jewel]

Its like they are being rounded but their is only 2 digits so thats make 0 sense

[sturdy compass]

If it’s before, that’s probably why and is a fundamental error in base code lmao

[final jewel]

yeah probably

[knotty orchid]

I want the buttons (and area) to draw above every other area so they don't collapse with consumables f.e.
I've tried increasing draw_layer but all it does is disappear

Pokerleven.create_UIBox_bench_area = function()
    local t = {
        n = G.UIT.ROOT,
        config = { align = 'cm', r = 0.1, colour = G.C.CLEAR, padding = 0.02 },
        nodes = {
            {
                n = G.UIT.O,
                config = {
                    object = Pokerleven.ina_bench_area,
                    draw_layer = 1
                }
            },
        }
    }
    return t
end

[red flower]

where are you defining the area?

[knotty orchid]

self.ina_bench_area = CardArea(
        0,
        0,
        self.CARD_W * 4.95,
        self.CARD_H * 0.95,
        {
            card_limit = 4,
            type = 'joker',
            highlight_limit = 1,
        }
    )
    Pokerleven.ina_bench_area = G.ina_bench_area

[red flower]

where

[knotty orchid]

hooked inside Game:start_run

[red flower]

before or after the reference call

[knotty orchid]

local game_start_run_ref = Game.start_run
function Game:start_run(args)
    self.ina_manager_area = CardArea(
        0,
        0,
        self.CARD_W * 1.9,
        self.CARD_H * 0.95,
        {
            card_limit = 1,
            type = 'joker',
            highlight_limit = 1,
        }
    )
    Pokerleven.ina_manager_area = G.ina_manager_area

    self.ina_bench_area = CardArea(
        0,
        0,
        self.CARD_W * 4.95,
        self.CARD_H * 0.95,
        {
            card_limit = 4,
            type = 'joker',
            highlight_limit = 1,
        }
    )
    Pokerleven.ina_bench_area = G.ina_bench_area

    game_start_run_ref(self, args)

[red flower]

is this the consumable area or the manager area

[knotty orchid]

The consumable

[red flower]

hmm

i think it should be working like that

[wispy falcon]

Is there something for changing the sprite of a joker, when a requirement is met?

[knotty orchid]

This is the hole code of start_run

local game_start_run_ref = Game.start_run
function Game:start_run(args)
    self.ina_manager_area = CardArea(
        0,
        0,
        self.CARD_W * 1.9,
        self.CARD_H * 0.95,
        {
            card_limit = 1,
            type = 'joker',
            highlight_limit = 1,
        }
    )
    Pokerleven.ina_manager_area = G.ina_manager_area

    self.ina_bench_area = CardArea(
        0,
        0,
        self.CARD_W * 4.95,
        self.CARD_H * 0.95,
        {
            card_limit = 4,
            type = 'joker',
            highlight_limit = 1,
        }
    )
    Pokerleven.ina_bench_area = G.ina_bench_area

    game_start_run_ref(self, args)

    Pokerleven.ina_manager_uibox = UIBox {
        definition = Pokerleven.create_UIBox_manager_area(),
        config = {
            align = 'cmi',
            offset = { x = 2.3, y = 3.5 },
            major = self.consumeables,
            bond = 'Weak'
        } }

    self.ina_bench = UIBox {
        definition = Pokerleven.create_UIBox_bench_area(),
        config = { align = 'cmi', offset = { x = 0, y = -5 }, major = self.jokers, bond = 'Weak' }
    }
end

[red flower]

card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({x = x, y = y})

[red flower]

i mean this is my exact same code haha

[wispy falcon]

But that isn't for putting a different sprite, is it?

[red flower]

not a different atlas if thats what you mean

for a different atlas it's more complicated

[sturdy compass]

I now feel like a moron for not making my cardarea init stuff a hook

Time to change that!

[knotty orchid]

Well it happens also with new buttons that I have created

They appear behind any area

[red flower]

i fixed that issue with the draw_layer = 1

[wispy falcon]

I want a joker to change it's sprite for a requirement met. Like for example if the player has only one hand left or the joker activates

[red flower]

so idk what the problem is

[red flower]

yeah

thats what i sent

you would put it in the same atlas and change the pos

[knotty orchid]

so sad

[wispy falcon]

That's all?

[red flower]

yes

[wispy falcon]

I'm gonna try it, thank you :)

[knotty orchid]

Maybe isn't the area itself and the buttons are the problem?

the sell custom button

[red flower]

maybe

[rocky plaza]

alright if i want to have a spectral card have a 0.3% chance to replace a playing card in a standard pack, what would be the best approach?

[pastel kernel]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play  then
            if context.other_card:get_id() == 14 then
                return {
                    x_mult = card.ability.extra.acemult,
                }
            end
            local chance = pseudorandom('susies_idea')
            if chance < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / card.ability.extra.aceodds then
                SMODS.add_card{ set = "Base", rank = "A", enhancement = "m_steel", edition = "e_polychrome", seal = "Red" }
            end
        end
    end```

why does this not give xmult

[rocky plaza]

are u using the latest SMODS version?

[fossil nebula]

i don't get pseudorandom

I want it to give me a number between 1 and 5

and then do something based on that

how can i do that

[rocky plaza]

pseudorandom("seed", 1, 5) i think

[fossil nebula]

yeah but then how do i get the number it generated

[frosty rampart]

it's a function call, and it returns the number it generated

[red flower]

local number_generated = pseudorandom("seed", 1, 5)

[knotty orchid]

Well I tried setting draw_layers to the button also but nope

[red flower]

it took me 3 months to find the solution myself so good luck

[rocky plaza]

^

[knotty orchid]

☠️

[umbral zodiac]

set the soul_rate to 0.3 and then set the soul_set to Standard(?)
not really sure of the soul_set variable exactly, but thats how you get it to generate in other packs

[knotty orchid]

I think i'm just gonna set the last card buttons on the left

fk it

[subtle merlin]

Bump

[red flower]

depends on the event
for preventing death i think you would need to patch the code that does that

[subtle merlin]

Uuuggggghhhhhhh yay, more patches

I'll try to see if I can figure out patching for this, ty

[knotty orchid]

Are there any examples of this config for UI?
instance_type: set the layer that the current node is drawn on, either:
NODE, MOVEABLE, UIBOX (w/o attention_text), CARDAREA, CARD, UI_BOX (w/ attention_text), ALERT, or POPUP
These are ordered from lowest to highest layer.

maybe thats what I need

[red flower]

you can just try them out

[pastel kernel]

Today I learn the difference between Xmult and x_mult

[red flower]

i did and it made stuff render over other stuff i didn't want

[red flower]

there's none?

[knotty orchid]

instance_type is a sub config parameter right?

[red flower]

it's a parameter for the uibox's config

[pastel kernel]

Today I learn I’m an idiot

Ok then why does playing a high card lose the xmult?

[knotty orchid]

So something like this right?
lua self.ina_bench = UIBox { definition = Pokerleven.create_UIBox_bench_area(), config = { align = 'cmi', offset = { x = 0, y = -5 }, major = self.jokers, bond = 'Weak', instance_type = "UI_BOX" }, }

[pastel kernel]

Photograph too??

[red flower]

yeah

[knotty orchid]

Okay

It does something

extrange

hahaha

I mean it works but...

[pastel kernel]

this does not work?lua calculate = function(self, card, context) if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then if context.other_card:get_id() == 14 then return { Xmult = card.ability.extra.acemult } end local chance = pseudorandom('susies_idea') if chance < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / card.ability.extra.aceodds then SMODS.add_card{ set = "Base", rank = "A", enhancement = "m_steel", edition = "e_polychrome", seal = "Red" } end end end

[red flower]

what's the goal and what's not working

[pastel kernel]

Gives acemult when an ace is scored

[knotty orchid]

Finally

[pastel kernel]

1 in 10 chance to also spawn random red seal steel polychrome ace during scoring any card

[red flower]

then you need to return at the end after you add the card

[red flower]

what did u do

[pastel kernel]

Wdym

[knotty orchid]

instance_type = "ALERT" },

Maybe you can use UI_BOX also as its above cardarea

[red flower]

when you return from a function it ends
so if the card is an ace it won't try to add

[pastel kernel]

So let me try to comprehend that

The only function I see in here is in calculate

When you return from a function it ends

So

Ok I got nothing

[red flower]

do you see the return keyword

when it reaches that calculate immediately ends

[pastel kernel]

So I also have to add a return end in the pseudorandom thing?

or do i try to fit it in?

[red flower]

you need to move that if condition to the end

[pastel kernel]

Ah

So

Checking ace snippet is instead moved right under polychrome ace snippet

[red flower]

yes

[pastel kernel]

Now I have a different problem, why does multiplying 1 by xmult stay at 1?

This happened with susie

Spinel

And even photograph

[red flower]

i dont get what you mean

[pastel kernel]

Why does xmult not affect a poker hand with the base mult of 1?

[red flower]

no idea

[pastel kernel]

Photograph is a vanilla joker, it should work

[red flower]

that seems like a mod messing with calculation

[pastel kernel]

Also uh

Chance is unriggable

Tried seeding it

[red flower]

i would ask ruby

[pastel kernel]

oops all 6s works

[wind steppe]

you're using old probability

[chrome widget]

Wdym by unriggable?

[wind steppe]

use the new probability system

[red flower]

oh rigged probably uses the new system yeah

[chrome widget]

Oh yeah you can probably just replace it with the fix_probability context

[pastel kernel]

Seed is a code card that rigs jokers

Which is?

[red flower]

the cryptid sticker

[chrome widget]

Oh if it's cryptid idk if it's updated to use it yet

[pastel kernel]

Rigged sticker makes all probabilities guaranteed

[red flower]

yeah you should update to the new probability method

[pastel kernel]

I don’t remember what it is

[wind steppe]

don't test with rigged sticker it might not work yet

[wind steppe]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/releases/tag/1.0.0-beta-0711a

[chrome widget]

I'm aware old cryptid probability rigging was jank as all fuck

[wind steppe]

tutorial there

[pastel kernel]

Oops all 6s works tho

[chrome widget]

Oops is hardcoded

[wind steppe]

are you on the latest smods

[red flower]

oops all 6s is hardcoded to work for back compat

[pastel kernel]

Yes

[chrome widget]

Ough not looking forward to doing Cryptid compatibility tbh

[red flower]

my mod is just not compatible :3

[chrome widget]

Bone to pick with cryptid and talisman for being so popular and getting in early, making other mod compatibility expected

[wind steppe]

If Cryptid (not talisman) isn't compatible with your mod it's cryptid's fault

[pastel kernel]

local new_numerator, new_denominator = SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, numerator, demoninator, 'identifier')

what do i write in place of identifier

also do i keep numerator and denominator as such?

demoninator

demon-inator

[red flower]

identifier should probably be the seed string you are using

[wind steppe]

your numerator and denominator respectively should be there

[red flower]

yes

[willow scroll]

im having trouble finding how function SMODS.debuff_card(card, debuff, source) works. can someone explain how to usedebuff and source?

[wind steppe]

so probably 1 and card.ability.extra.odds

[pastel kernel]

return {vars = {G.GAME.probabilities.normal, card.ability.extra.aceodds, card.ability.extra.acemult}}

[wind steppe]

no

[willow scroll]

am i blind as hell where is this

[wind steppe]

new_numerator, new_denominator, and card.ability.extra.acemult

[pastel kernel]

so in this case, card, numerator, denonimator, 'susies_idea'

[wind steppe]

utility functions in smods wiki

[wind steppe]

probably add your mod prefix to that

not required but it is good practice

[pastel kernel]

busterb_susies_idea omfg i'm gonna bang my head against the wall that is a mouthful

[red flower]

numerator and denominator there should be 1 and card.ability.extra.aceodds if that wasn't clear

[willow scroll]

i may be blind, thank you

[pastel kernel]

wait wtf

[wind steppe]

you should shorten your mod prefix

seven characters is far too much

[crystal perch]

anybody know why SMODS.load_file isn't working?
it doesn't throw any errors when loading but the jokers can't seem to find the atlases despite me calling for it to load

[wind steppe]

wrap it in assert

[pastel kernel]

this

loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
  local new_numerator, new_denominator = SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, 1, demoninator, 'busterb_susies_idea')
  return {vars = {new_numerator, new_denominator, card.ability.extra.acemult}}
  end,
  calculate = function(self, card, context)
      if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and not context.blueprint then
          local chance = pseudorandom('busterb_susies_idea')
          if chance < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / card.ability.extra.aceodds then
              SMODS.add_card{ set = "Base", rank = "A", enhancement = "m_steel", edition = "e_polychrome", seal = "Red" }
end
        ```

[red flower]

it returns a function you need to call by adding () at the end

[wind steppe]

you still need to fix the actual chance

[crystal perch]

when i do that it crashes

[wind steppe]

but the loc_vars is good

[crystal perch]

at least last time i tried

i'll update smods and try again

[red flower]

then your atlas file is wrong

[crystal perch]

no there's definitely a file there and the code worked previously when it was just in main

[pastel kernel]

pseudorandom('busterb_susies_idea',2)?

[red flower]

well I'm sorry but something is wrong on your end

post the crashlog

[crystal perch]

it's attempting to call a nil value

[wind steppe]

assert(SMODS.load_file("content/atlases.lua"))()

[subtle merlin]

Is there a guide on patches I can read?

[crystal perch]

line 21 is the load_file btw

[wind steppe]

read the guide please

[red flower]

that looks like it cant find the file

[wind steppe]

https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector?tab=readme-ov-file#patches

[crystal perch]

ther just returns that

it looks like it cant read it

[red flower]

yeah the path is wrong

[wind steppe]

does this file actually exist as a readable lua file in the right place

[crystal perch]

oh wait one moment

i may have been editing it in the wrong place 💀

nope i moved it to roaming and it still errors out

let me do something

okay i figured it out

[pastel kernel]

i made the seed an identifier...

[crystal perch]

my VSC was open in the wrong filepath so i was unknowingly editing the incorrect files

looks like i gotta change my workspace preset

[pastel kernel]

the pseudorandom seed was susies_idea

the identifier is busterb_susies_idea

[wind steppe]

seed should also be busterb_susies_idea

[wind steppe]

oh wait no the loc_vars is still wrong

demoninator should be your denominator for the probability

[pastel kernel]

which is aceodds

right?

[wind steppe]

so then replace demoninator with card.ability.extra.aceodds

[pastel kernel]

like in here?
return {vars = {acechance, aceodds, card.ability.extra.acemult}}
replace aceodds with card.ability.extra.aceodds?

[wind steppe]

no in the probability vars thing

[pastel kernel]

SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, 1, card.extra.ability.aceodds, 'busterb_susies_idea')

[wind steppe]

yup

[pastel kernel]

local chance = pseudorandom('susies_idea')
if SMODS.pseudorandom_probability(card, 'susies_idea', 1, card.extra.ability.aceodds, 'busterb_susies_idea') then

[wind steppe]

and then your return should be return {vars = {new_numerator, new_denominator, card.ability.extra.acemult}}

[pastel kernel]

how about this?

[wispy falcon]

Why does this happen?

    
    if context.before and context.cardarea == G.jokers then
        card.ability.extra.card_amount = 0

        for _, c in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
            if context.other_card.edition and context.other_card.edition.key == "e_foil" then
                card.ability.extra.card_amount = card.ability.extra.card_amount + 1
            end
        end
    end

    if context.joker_main and context.cardarea == G.jokers and card.ability.extra.card_amount > 0 then
        return{
            chips = card.ability.extra.chips * card.ability.extra.card_amount
        }
    end
end,```

[pastel kernel]

changed it to acechance and aceodds in the local

[wind steppe]

replace susies_idea with busterb_susies_idea

[red flower]

there's no other_card in context.before

[wind steppe]

is the new_numerator and new_denominator also acechance and aceodds

[pastel kernel]

yes

[wind steppe]

replace context.other_card with c and card with c in context.before

[wispy falcon]

It didn't work in joker_main either though

[wind steppe]

yeah thats fine then

[pastel kernel]

seed and identifier use the same key 💔

[red flower]

other_card is also not in joker_main
this info is in the documentation

[wind steppe]

hold on a moment

what are you trying to do

because it looks like permabonuses might be the answer to your problem

[wind steppe]

thats intended

[pastel kernel]

what do i do here now
local chance = pseudorandom('busterb_susies_idea')

[wind steppe]

get rid of that

the age of pseudorandom is dead

[pastel kernel]

final

    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
    local acechance, aceodds = SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, 1, card.extra.ability.aceodds, 'busterb_susies_idea')    return {vars = {acechance, aceodds, card.ability.extra.acemult}}
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and not context.blueprint then

            end```

[wispy falcon]

No, I want the Joker to give 15 chips per foil card played/scored

[wind steppe]

this is for every card played?

[pastel kernel]

for every card scored but sure

[wind steppe]

oh yeah mb

then thats perfect

[wind steppe]

played or scored

pick one

[wispy falcon]

scored

[pastel kernel]

guess i'll have to change my other chance joker peacock

[wind steppe]

in context.individual check if the cards foil and increase card.ability.extra.card_amount (like youre doing in the for loop)

[hallow slate]

Is putting vouchers and boosters in consumable slots possible

[wind steppe]

i believe you can just emplace them there

[hallow slate]

Oh shit really?

[wind steppe]

also make sure to use not context.blueprint for context.individual

[wispy falcon]

Why?

[pastel kernel]

like this too?```lua
loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
local polychance, polyodds = SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, 1, card.extra.ability.odds, 'busterb_peacock_polychrome')

            else
            end```

[wind steppe]

blueprint doesnt have those values to scale

[wind steppe]

yup

[wind steppe]

your joker_main is fine just remove the extra conditions

[split saddle]

how would one go about retriggering jokers? i'd check cryptid's code but i was advised against it xd

[wind steppe]

first you have to enable it

    retrigger_joker = true,

Our crossmod joker 🥀

[wind steppe]

put that at the top of your main file

[wind steppe]

the background is a little too bright

[pastel kernel]

Will fix later

[knotty orchid]

How do I know if I'm inside a blind?

[pastel kernel]

the only rare joker i've made atm is susie's idea

[wintry solar]

That’s not how blueprint works

[wind steppe]

in calculate?

[wind steppe]

oh shit rlly?

[knotty orchid]

Nop. In a can_use. I want to disable a button inside blinds

[pastel kernel]

and the line in question is

     local acechance, aceodds = SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, 1, card.extra.ability.aceodds, 'busterb_susies_idea')

[wintry solar]

Yeah, blueprint basically just makes the other joker calculate again and display its messages on blueprint

[pastel kernel]

apparently it's attempting to index field 'extra'

[wind steppe]

G.hand and G.GAME.blind.in_blind returns true if and only if youre in a blind

[knotty orchid]

That's nice to know

thanks

[wind steppe]

card.ability.extra not card.extra.ability

[pastel kernel]

am i dyslexic

[wispy falcon]

I think I did it wrong... Now the Joker does nothing at all

    
    if context.before and context.cardarea == G.jokers then
        card.ability.extra.card_amount = 0
    end

    if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.jokers then
        for _, c in ipairs(context.scoring_hand) do
            if context.other_card.edition and context.other_card.edition.key == "e_foil" then
                card.ability.extra.card_amount = card.ability.extra.card_amount + 1
            end
        end
    end

    if context.joker_main then
        return{
            chips = card.ability.extra.chips * card.ability.extra.card_amount
        }
    end
end,```

[split saddle]

and for actual joker repetition?

i assume it would be something like context.joker_main and context.repetition but idk

[wintry solar]

Okay, cardarea checks are only for when you are trying to find a different card to evaluate, like a played card, so delete the one with the context.before and change the one with individual to G.play

However

[wind steppe]

depends on what jokers you're trying to retrigger

[wintry solar]

For this joker I wouldn’t use context.individual at all

You just need to iterate over context.scoring_hand within your joker main check and keep a local count of the number of foil cards

[split saddle]

another joker from this one

[wind steppe]

you gotta be more specific

[wispy falcon]

So what now?

[wind steppe]

shits undocumented so i have to go off of cryptid and only cryptid

[split saddle]

lmao ok

[wind steppe]

they said they wanted it to be scored not scoring though

[split saddle]

jokers next to this one

[wind steppe]

that implies retrigger synergy

[red flower]

#💻・modding-dev message

[wintry solar]

N do you have all my new doc screenshots saved or something

[knotty orchid]

Doesn't seem to work. I can still use the button inside a blind

G.FUNCS.can_toggle_bench_card = function(e, area, button_name, active_colour)
    if area.config.card_count >= area.config.card_limit and G.GAME.blind.in_blind then
        e.config.colour = G.C.UI.BACKGROUND_INACTIVE
        e.config.button = nil
        return false
    else
        e.config.colour = active_colour
        e.config.button = button_name
        return true
    end
end```

[split saddle]

why isn't that in the wiki page? /genq

[wintry solar]

Those are the same thing?

[wind steppe]

G.hand and

[red flower]

eremel hasnt finished the page yet

[knotty orchid]

yeah I tried that too

[wind steppe]

to me that implies retrigger synergy?

[knotty orchid]

doesn't work either

[wind steppe]

vague wording ig

[pastel kernel]

THE PROBABILITY WORKS

[wind steppe]

hm. hold on let me test something

[modern kindle]

holy shmoly is that eremel hi eremel

[wintry solar]

Hello dilly

[modern kindle]

i hope you fare well this day

[pastel kernel]

i just got talismogged 😭

[wintry solar]

I do fare well I hope you also fair well

[wispy falcon]

So what should I try now? context.individual or something else?

[modern kindle]

im doing alright, because people were hating on my codebreakers checksum i have now implemented sha-256 to it so it should be alot less possible to break it

[red flower]

joker_main, like eremel said and use c instead of context.scoring_card like unusedparadox said

[wintry solar]

What’s the actual desired effect

[wind steppe]

huh. works for me

update smods?

[wispy falcon]

I want the Joker to give 15 chips per counted foil card from the scoring cards of the played hand

[wind steppe]

so no retrigger synergy?

[wispy falcon]

What does that mean? I'm so confused right now

[wintry solar]

Then use joker main

[wind steppe]

retriggers. like the vanilla balatro feature that retriggers playing cards. like hanging chad.

those retriggers

if a foil card is retriggered, should it add +15 chips again

[knotty orchid]

Wasn't the problem

[hardy ibex]

did you find a way to do it?

[knotty orchid]

still doesn't work 🙁

[wispy falcon]

if a card gets triggered twice, it should count twice imo

[wind steppe]

can you use it outside of blinds

[wind steppe]

yeah use context.individual then

[thorn furnace]

Probably best to make a custom cardarea and do it that way
Not really a good way to do it as far as i can tell

[wind steppe]

also do you want this to reset or not

[knotty orchid]

Yep

i can use it anywhere

[hardy ibex]

im currently trying to create a consumable that spawns the last sold joker

[wind steppe]

does this function actually check if you can press the button

[knotty orchid]

Man I'm an Idiot. It was area.config.card_count >= area.config.card_limit **OR ** (G.hand and G.GAME.blind.in_blind) not AND

[crystal perch]

getting a problem where one of my functions for registering items errors out at line 7 where it's attempting to call a nil value. all the files & paths exist and are named properly and are loaded into main, so i don't understand the issue

[wispy falcon]

It should reset every blind

[knotty orchid]

It now works, thanks

[crystal perch]

also i would like to mention that i stole some of this code from Paperback mod, which it works in

[wind steppe]

keep the last sold joker's key somewhere and create it when the consumable is used

[red flower]

where's counterfeit joker

[wind steppe]

G.GAME should do?

[crystal perch]

i forgor

commenting out counterfeit joker made it work

i may be an idiot

[red flower]

it says it in the log btw

[willow scroll]

wait is card.rank from G.playing_cards not the same as the rank?

[hardy ibex]

i have to create a function that checks what happens each frame?

[red flower]

the rank is card.base.value

[crystal perch]

i should really get better at reading the error logs 😔

[wind steppe]

no????

[willow scroll]

i see, thank you

[wind steppe]

just hook whatevers called when you sell a joker

idk the exact function

[chrome widget]

Hey Dilly, you interested in being a mod playtester?

[knotty orchid]

If I want to add an uibox to the right of the deck, what is the major? G.deck?

[hardy ibex]

This was the idea but i dont get how to create the function

[wind steppe]

do you know what a hook is

[hardy ibex]

Im not really familiar with the lang

Ill check it

[wind steppe]

does anyone here want to explain hooks?

https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/129557-tutorial-function-hooking-and-you/ this guide is not great but its better than nothing

[hardy ibex]

Ty, appreciate 🙏

[rocky plaza]

essentially hooking is just storing a function as a variable under a different name, then overriding it by creating a new function with the exact same name
then in your new function somewhere call (and return if necessary) the original function with the new name and the original arguments
And now you have the power to do stuff before and after the function is called

[hardy ibex]

Ty man

[rocky plaza]

i.e

local start_run_hook = Game.start_run
function Game:start_run(args)
    start_run_hook(self, args)
    G.GAME.glass_broken = G.GAME.glass_broken or {}
end

[violet oasis]

If I set up two music tracks with SMODS.Sound, where Music 1 has conditions A and B and Music 2 has conditions A, B and C, and I have conditions A, B and C currently fulfilled (making Music 2 play), does that actively stop Music1 or does it keep "playing" in the background? If condition C goes away and Music 1 comes back, will it start from the beginning or will it be midway through as if it was playing the whole time?

[rocky plaza]

this will create a new variable saved to G.GAME after the run is started

[hardy ibex]

So if i have to get the last joker sold ill have to create a hook and create a new variable (for example G.GAME.last_joker_sold) that stores the id of the last sold joker?

[rocky plaza]

yeah

[hardy ibex]

And then i can use this new variable when in the consumable code

[rocky plaza]

yep

[hardy ibex]

I understand it now

Ill try, ty so much

[rocky plaza]

gotta do a nil check tho to make sure that a joker has been sold before

[hardy ibex]

Ye ofc

[faint yacht]

Funny, but scrapped.

[rocky plaza]

yeah, had to do something similar where i stored all broken glass cards
that was painful to figure out tho

[violet oasis]

I've been having trouble with this setup. If I activate the enable_fast_music setting it switches to the 2nd track, but when I deactivate it and it goes back to the 1st track it doesn't start at the beginning. It's like if it's just muting one and unmuting the other instead of restarting the tracks. I also tried setting different priority values, but it didn't do much. Am I missing something?

    vol = 0.6,
    pitch = 0.8,
    key = "music_middle_normal",
    path = "middleNormal.ogg",
    select_music_track = function()
        return (G.GAME.selected_back.name == 'The Middle Deck' and G.GAME.blind and not G.GAME.blind.boss and not G.shop and not ProjectMoonMusic.config.enable_fast_music) and 0 or false
    end,
})

SMODS.Sound({
    vol = 0.6,
    pitch = 1.0,
    key = "music_middle_normal_f",
    path = "middleNormal.ogg",
    select_music_track = function()
        return (G.GAME.selected_back.name == 'The Middle Deck' and G.GAME.blind and not G.GAME.blind.boss and not G.shop and ProjectMoonMusic.config.enable_fast_music) and 0 or false
    end,
})```

[hardy ibex]

Ty for the helpful advices

[rocky plaza]

are the two tracks supposed to sync with each other? if not, set sync = false

[brittle yacht]

OK

oops caps loc

[knotty orchid]

If I want to create a new Sprite for a G.UIT.O. Should I use SMODS.Sprite? And how does it work?

[brittle yacht]

how do i create a joker that does something when a glass card is clicked

[wintry solar]

No, you use the normal Sprite() object

[knotty orchid]

And how does that work? Can I reference an atlas from it?

[wispy falcon]

How do you use card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({x = x, y = y})? Like when and what for?

[violet oasis]

Oh my God, I missed that in the wiki. Thank you!

[wintry solar]

Yes, just look for uses of it in the vanilla code, it’s pretty straightforward

[distant junco]

how do i do the effect of a legendary joker and have the art seperate from the back

[slim ferry]

just add a soul_pos parameter in the joker that points to the floating sprite location in the atlas

[distant junco]

alright

[knotty orchid]

local px = G.ASSET_ATLAS["barrier"].px
local py = G.ASSET_ATLAS["barrier"].py
local atlas = G.ASSET_ATLAS["barrier"]

local sprite = Sprite(0, 0, px, py, atlas, { x = 0, y = 0 })```
something like this?
Idk why i'm getting a nil exception from barrier atlas if I do create it

[brittle yacht]

how do i make a joker do something when a glass card is clicked

[distant junco]

idk if thats a checkable function icl

[slim ferry]

what actually is G.I.CARD? i see it a lot in the files, is it just all cards currently in play?

[unkempt thicket]

How do i make a joker animated?

[knotty orchid]

With the update function updating his sprite manually

[sturdy compass]

Do discovery bypasses just not take the card name into account???

[distant junco]

is there no discovered = true for consumeables?

[wispy falcon]

How do I change the sprite of a Joker mid-game?

[sturdy compass]

There is but that alone was being weird (I tried it before adding these clauses). Imma try try it with

Still nope

[rocky plaza]

update function
I have a solution for it but I heard SMODS is planning on adding animation support for other types of cards

[brittle yacht]

bump

[wispy falcon]

What is the update function?

[rocky plaza]

at the bottom of the screenshot

is called every frame

[wispy falcon]

And can I put requirements there? Like if I want it to change after activating, for example

[distant junco]

https://discordapp.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1233186615086813277/1402361670617141331

[distant junco]

yeah

[brittle yacht]

mb

[dreamy thunder]

there is this

[slim ferry]

you should be able to do something with the function that highlights/unhighlights cards when you click on them. id imagine you have to do fancy hook stuff and then make a context for it in SMODS.calculate_context

[frosty rampart]

yea that's not even super fancy, all you'd do in the hook is calculate the custom context and then pass it off to the old version of the function

[dreamy thunder]

^

[wispy falcon]

Does someone have a guide or video that explains the update function?

[dreamy thunder]

update function triggers every frame

[frosty rampart]

it's literally just a function that runs every frame

[dreamy thunder]

thats the only thing about it

[frosty rampart]

you can do whatever you want in it, it's just a quick way to have something happen if you need to be checking the condition constantly

[wispy falcon]

Ohhh, okay. Thank you :3

And what do I need to write in it to change sprites?

[frosty rampart]

that set_sprite_pos function you were asking about earlier will change the sprite

[wispy falcon]

How?

[frosty rampart]

you put in the { x = [something], y = [something] }, and it changes the card's sprite to whatever that position is in its atlas

[split saddle]

i'm having trouble making jokers retrigger :(

[wispy falcon]

And how do I set it in the atlas? I've never did that, I just used path = "something.png"

[split saddle]

getting error "Found effect table with no assigned repetitions during repetition check"
I understand what it means, but I don't know what am I doing wrong

[sturdy compass]

Ok bruh I should not have had to patch that in myself 😭

[frosty rampart]

i don't think that's something you can do? your joker code has atlas = 'something', does it not?

[brittle yacht]

im changing it to a blind, is it easier to do with a blind?

if a glass card is selected/clicked, it game overs you

[wispy falcon]

Yes. Is there a difference or why?

[slim ferry]

youd have to hook the click function regardless to detect clicks i think

[brittle yacht]

i havent worked with hooks before

[slim ferry]

okay simple explanation

[frosty rampart]

so your joker has an atlas then. the set_sprite_pos will select a card from the image that your joker started taking its art from

[wispy falcon]

I'm confused. What does that mean?

[frosty rampart]

show me your joker code

[slim ferry]

basically what you do is you make a copy of the function that you want to hook in another variable,
then, you can edit the function you want to hook as long as you call the original function within it (youre basically just adding code into the original function)
for example this hook that i made once:

[brittle yacht]

what

[slim ferry]

first line is copying SMODS.poll_enhancement (the original one)

and then everything after is just

[wispy falcon]

    key = "final_push",
    path = "j_SPACEHOLDER.png",
    px = 71,
    py = 95
})

SMODS.Joker{
    key = "final_push",
    config = { extra = { xchips = 2 } },
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 8,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    eternal_compat = true,
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = true,
    effect = nil,
    atlas = 'final_push',
    soul_pos = nil,

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main and G.GAME.current_round.hands_left == 0 then
            return {
                xchips = card.ability.extra.xchips
            }
        end
    end,

    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.xchips }, key = self.key }
    end,
}```

[slim ferry]

the actual code of the hook

where eventually the old function gets called

so the original stuff still happens

here im using it to modify the arguments that get put into the function

[frosty rampart]

your atlas is final_push, which uses the image j_SPACEHOLDER.png. if you call the set_sprite_pos function in the update function of your final_push joker, then you can set final_push's sprite to any card that you have in the j_SPACEHOLDER.png image

[slim ferry]

but you can do basically anything

[brittle yacht]

im so confuzzled 😭🙏

[slim ferry]

uhhhhh,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[brittle yacht]

im sorry 😭

[slim ferry]

idk im not a hook expert lmao

im definitely not the best at explaining this

[brittle yacht]

D:

[slim ferry]

but ill just give an example see if that helps

[bold sleet]

Hey, does anyone happen to know how to make a custom voucher that does the same shit as tarot/planet merchant/tycoon?

I checked the source code and it seems it is reading from a hardcoded table I cannot modify.

(because it is locally stored in the function)

[wispy falcon]

But I want to change it from j_SPACEHOLDER.png to something else, like j_something.png. Is that possible?

[slim ferry]

examplefunction_old = examplefunction
function examplefunction(argument1, argument2) --example hook!
    --everything you want to do BEFORE the original function goes here
    local ret = examplefunction_old(argument1, argument2)
    --everything you want to do AFTER the original function goes here
    return ret
end

does this help at all?

[frosty rampart]

not as far as i'm aware. if the card images are related, they should be in the same atlas for organizational purposes anyway (e.g. have all your jokers in one single atlas)

[brittle yacht]

nah i reworked it ur good

its fine

[slim ferry]

okay

[wispy falcon]

So I can't change the image mid-game in any way?

[frosty rampart]

no. but you shouldn't need to, because you can just pick a different part of the image to display

the game is designed for an atlas to contain a bunch of sprites in one image

[wispy falcon]

So I could make a bigger image (with both images in it) and just position it differently?

[frosty rampart]

yes. that is exactly what i've been saying

[wispy falcon]

I didn't know that, sorry

[wet crag]

what do i need to do to have an effect activate on the first scoring card of the first hand of the round if the hand matches a rotating hand type variable (as with to-do list)?
im trying to use

if context.cardarea == G.jokers and context.joker_main then
            if context.scoring_name == G.GAME.current_round.pokervar_hand and (G.GAME.current_round.hands_played == 0) and context.other_card == context.scoring_hand[1] then

as well as :

if context.cardarea == G.jokers and context.joker_main then
  if context.scoring_name == G.GAME.current_round.pokervar_hand then
    if (G.GAME.current_round.hands_played == 0) then
      if context.other_card == context.scoring_hand[1] then

but it isnt working

[frosty rampart]

context.other_card doesn't exist in context.joker_main,
but you don't need that check at all, you can just use context.scoring_hand[1] directly

[wet crag]

oh shoot

[slim ferry]

is there a table that contains all the rarities?

[wispy falcon]

Another quick question regarding card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({x = x, y = y}) How do I know what x and y?

[slim ferry]

look at your atlas image

the top-left sprite in it is x = 0, y = 0

from there its just a grid of coordinates

[wispy falcon]

So I just take a guess till I get it right?

[slim ferry]

you can look at the spritesheet for the coordinates

down 1 sprite is +1 y and right 1 sprite is +1 x

[wispy falcon]

What spritesheet?

[frosty rampart]

the image that contains the sprites

whatever image you set the atlas to

[wispy falcon]

Oh, I'm stupid... I didn't know it's called that

[wind steppe]

isn’t it literally SMODS.Atlas

[wispy falcon]

I meant that it's called a sprite sheet

[ivory widget]

How would a joker destroy the cards between the cards selected for Hanged Man?

[split saddle]

is there a context for creating consumables?

[wind steppe]

do you mean obtaining them

[split saddle]

obtaining in every form except buying

but I guess i can exclude buying from shop and it'd be the same

[wind steppe]

hm. no idea

you could hook create_card maybe?

[split saddle]

what is the cardarea for consumables

i think i can use card_added maybe

[wind steppe]

G.consumeables afaik

not misspelled

[split saddle]

when a consumable is added, it does call context.card_added, but not cardarea = G.consumeables

but I think I can work with that

[frosty rampart]

yes. but it's consumeables in the game code

[wild escarp]

How could I track and level up unplayed hands each round?

[wispy falcon]

I feel stupid asking this but why is my joker getting invisible when I set the sprite pos to something other than x = 0, y = 0?

[frosty rampart]

the documentation may not be perfect, but in this case you can see that context.before gets the name of the scoring hand in context.scoring_hand. https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Calculate-Functions
so you can track the scored hands in a subtable in card.ability.extra, then iterate through SMODS.PokerHands at the end of the round and level up all the hands that you didn't track. and then reset the table of scored hands afterwards so that the next round starts fresh

[frosty rampart]

how is your image set up, what are you changing the sprite pos to, and did you change the px or py settings in the SMODS.Atlas (you shouldn't have)

[split saddle]

how do you do card.type = consumeable?

like, the correct way to do it in code

[agile path]

good evening chat

[wispy falcon]

This is my image (I left space underneath for the other 2 Sprites I'm still working on). I'm changing the sprite pos to the top left corner of the right card (x = 72, y = 0) and I didn't change anything in atlas except for the path to this image

[frosty rampart]

sprite pos isn't the pixel position, it's the sprite position. you should set it to (x = 1, y = 0)

[wispy falcon]

But how does it know what of it a sprite is?

[errant talon]

Hello, there is no example regarding the use of assert
calculate = function(self, card, context) if context.cardarea == G.scored then if context.other_card:get_id() == 13 or context.other_card:get_id() == 11 then message = 'Queen!' and assert(SMODS.change_base(played_card, "12"))

Whenever i try to get this joker to work, i get either error of context other_card being not recognised, or error about change_base lacking cards

[wispy falcon]

It works now, thank you again

[daring fern]

G.scored doesn't exist.

[errant talon]

The issue is nil value in "'other_card" as of right now

[frosty rampart]

to answer this, that's what the px and py in the atlas definition do. by setting px = 71, py = 95, the game knows that that atlas contains sprites that are 71x95 pixels

[agile path]

woah, what does this do, if i may ask

[wispy falcon]

Makes sense

[errant talon]

This was recommended to me here, I try to make a joker that changed jacks and kings into queens

assert should function like strenght in this regard

[agile path]

yoooo, i'm trying to do that

queens into kings and kings into queens

[split saddle]

How do you change the edition of a card?

[wet crag]

holy shit. jestrogen

if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and (context.other_card:get_id() == 13 or context.other_card:get_id() == 11) then
    assert(SMODS.change_base(context.other_card, nil, "Queen"))
end

[frosty rampart]

^ your issue wasn't the assert, but the context checks beforehand

[frosty rampart]

paperback has both lmao

[wet crag]

great minds think alike

[agile path]

hehehe

[errant talon]

so it was checking the hand value before hand was played

what is the fix to that for the future?

[daring fern]

No, it was trying to get the id of a card that doesn't exist.

[frosty rampart]

read up on the contexts in here (a non-exhaustive list is at the bottom)
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Calculate-Functions
your issue was, more specifically, that if context.cardarea == G.scored is meaningless

[daring fern]

And it was doing that every time a context was called.

[agile path]

i might... copy this ngl

[wintry solar]

It shouldn’t ever have reached that line though if the copied code is correct

[chrome widget]

My Shark Army (Sharmy) approves

[errant talon]

I was looking for this for past 2 hours, thank you

[split saddle]

bump

[modern kindle]

You've got too many. Limit of 1 per entity

[worthy stirrup]

can i borrow one

[agile path]

okay so, i was looking at the contexts at the bottom of the page. how do you use these exactly?

{
    cardarea = G.jokers, -- G.hand, (G.deck and G.discard optionally enabled)
    skip_blind = true,
}```

say i want to use this. what do i follow up with? do i add anything else inside the brackets?

[frosty rampart]

the brackets aren't actual code, it's showing what other context values will be set to if context.skip_blind is true. in that case you don't really get much of anything, you just get to know that you're currently skipping a blind

[slim ferry]

inside the brackets is just the additional information that exists in the context

yeha that

[agile path]

ah, so if i do an if context.skip_blind, that cardarea and skip_blind activate by default?

[wind steppe]

SMODS.Consumeable

[split saddle]

that i already figured out

now I want to know how to set the edition

[wind steppe]

when?

[split saddle]

apparently you use card:set_edition but it's not working for me

[wind steppe]

what exactly are you doing

[split saddle]

when the context is called

[split saddle]

turn your consumables into negatives

when acquired and not bought

[split saddle]

all i'm missing rn is this

[errant talon]

This still causes the other_card to be nil

[wind steppe]

no like the code

[buoyant thorn]

how do i make a deck that starts with a joker that has a custom edition?

[daring fern]

Code?

[buoyant thorn]

also hi wow cute ralsei pfp

[wind steppe]

look at my mod’s code for naneinf deck

[split saddle]

i figured it out :p

you need to pass a table and i wasn't doing that

[buoyant thorn]

i must not have that mod

like
polychrome jimbo for example

[wind steppe]

https://github.com/unusedparadox/paradox-stupid-ideas/blob/main/content/backs/naneinfdeck.lua

apply contains everything you need

[errant talon]

The same one you gave me

[daring fern]

Log?

[errant talon]

now it is a change_base

[errant talon]

other_card "Queen" does not seem to define for smods.change_base what value it should be changed to

[void sparrow]

anyone knows why my messages don't trigger but the event does?

[daring fern]

No, did you save the file?

[errant talon]

Yes, i have saved the file, I am telling you that assert(SMODS.change_base(context.other_card, "Queen")) is not a valid way to define card suit

[wind steppe]

Try Q

[agile path]

since i'm also trying to do something similar, what is this doing exactly? i'm reading it and seeing if i understand it

[daring fern]

Yes, and I have fixed the code.

[errant talon]

let me check then

that what @daring fern , it just, they updated the code in previous comment and edited it so i did not notice it

[errant talon]

the idea is
if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and (context.other_card:get_id() == 13 or context.other_card:get_id() == 11) then assert(SMODS.change_base(context.other_card, nil, "Queen")) end
After playing a card that is a jack or kings into queens

before it is scored

[agile path]

        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play  then
            if context.other_card:get_id() == 12 then
                assert(SMODS.change_base(context.other_card, nil, "King"))
                return {
                    message = "Card Modified!"
                }
            end
        end
    end

would this work?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[wind steppe]

be grateful they didn’t start 🤔 reacting you

https://jokerforge.jaydchw.com

for me that i'm starting, this tool is helping

@errant talon

i don't remember who showed me this today, but i have been looking into it

[wet crag]

what am i doing wrong here? probably a lot. but im trying to make it so that if the first hand scored coincides with a randomly selected hand (as per to-do list), the first scored card modifies the poker hand's base chips and mult based on its scoring values. the joker seems to activate but the hand's values don't actually change

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.scoring_name == G.GAME.current_round.pokervar_hand then
            if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
                if (G.GAME.current_round.hands_played == 0) then
                    if context.other_card == context.scoring_hand[1] then
                        context.other_card.should_destroy = true
                        local chips = card_chips
                        local mult = card_mult
                        local x_mult = card_xmult or 0
                        local text = G.FUNCS.get_poker_hand_info(G.play.cards)
                        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                            func = function()
                                G.GAME.hands[text].chips = G.GAME.hands[text].chips + chips
                                G.GAME.hands[text].mult = G.GAME.hands[text].mult + mult
                                if x_mult > 0 then
                                    G.GAME.hands[text].mult = G.GAME.hands[text].mult * x_mult
                                end
                                return true
                           end
                        }))
                        return {
                            message = "AUGMENT!"
                        }
                        end

jokerforge is limited

[agile path]

yeah, i figured

[wet crag]

what do you mean?

[agile path]

i feel like it's still a great tool, specifically for me lol

[frosty rampart]

uhhhhhh i think you aren't getting card_chips, card_mult, and card_xmult properly, so they're just becoming nil and therefore 0

[wind steppe]

Jokerforge is limited

[agile path]

oh, another iris

hi iris

hi kimi or iris 2

[daring fern]

Remove the second table from the return.

Also move the event out of the return.

[modern kindle]

Hi smt

[ivory widget]

bump

[daring fern]

You would take ownership of The Hanged Man.

[agile path]

if i were to add a context.before, would this happen before the cards score?

[ivory widget]

To have it function differently when you have the joker?

[daring fern]

No.

[daring fern]

Yes.

[void sparrow]

so i remove everything from the return?

[daring fern]

No, you move the event out of the return.

And you would remove the } below the r in return and you would remove the };

[void sparrow]

okay thank oyu!!

[wet crag]

i think this is probably the case; what variable refers to the scoring attributes of a playing card? is it not card_chips, card_mult, card_xmult, card_xchips, etc?

i could just take the raw value of the score after the card is played but that won't properly multiply the base values when xMult is involved

[ivory widget]

I think I understand taking ownership, but still don't understand how to detect the cards between the selected ones

[frosty rampart]

it is i think, but you can't just say "card_chips" or whatever. you have to get it from within context.other_card

gimme a second to find the exact syntax

[wet crag]

thank you, and sorry for asking so many questions! :D

[daring fern]

You would go through G.hand.highlighted find the positions of them, and see which cards are between.

[daring fern]

context.other_card:get_chip_bonus(), context.other_card:get_chip_mult(), context.other_card:get_chip_x_mult(), context.other_card:get_chip_x_bonus()

[wet crag]

you're a godsend

[frosty rampart]

yes that's it

[wet crag]

i cry everytime

it seems that get_chip_bonus() and get_chip_mult() exist, but not for the xmult and xchips. so I may need to make those myself

[frosty rampart]

it's get_chip_x_mult() lmao

and it should be get_chip_x_bonus() for the xchips one

[ivory widget]

I'm still new to this, how do i get the positions from that?

[daring fern]

for k, v in pairs(G.hand.highlighted) do
    local my_pos
    for i=1, #G.hand.cards do
        if G.hand.cards[i] == v then
            my_pos = i
        end
    end
end

[void sparrow]

is there a scaling method for messages?

[split saddle]

this is what i've been up to (for the ppl that helped me (thanks guys))

I want to turn every consumable that is obtained through other than shopping to be turned negative. Right now, all consumables, regardless of origin, are converted. I would do something with buying_card, but it's called after card_added; I implemented a hack in the meantime.
There must be a way to do this in a more organized manner, but idk how to. Someone suggested doing a hook, but that's a little bit above what I can do (last time I tried to do something similar, I spent an hour to fruitless results). Any better ideas?

[wet crag]

this works perfectly!! thank you so much!
one last thing, if you know; this works for the card itself and its enhancements but it isnt adding any bonuses from the card's edition. i tried to use context.other_card.edition:get_chip_bonus() etc. but that didn't work, likewise with using context.scoring_hand[1]:get_chip_bonus()

[ebon shell]

i copied the code to juice up the joker from invisible joker, so why is it visibly different from invisible joker's juice up animation?

[daring fern]

Just add ((context.other_card.edition or {}).chips or 0) if it has an edition for all of the bonuses.

[red flower]

it might be getting applied multiple times

[proven belfry]

what's the size for mod icons in the mod menu

[wet crag]

you have all genuinely been so incredibly helpful i can't thank you enough. i apologize for the very frequent questions but sincerely appreciate the assistance!!

[ebon shell]

that was in fact the case, fixed it now so thx

[formal quest]

How possible is it for me to make contained hands count as played hands? It seems like the "played" hand is controlled by context.scoring_name, is there anything I can do with that?

I've already implemented contained hands adding score, that's just some manual addition

[red flower]

seems very hard

at least if you plan to support mods

[knotty orchid]

What is the function that loads a game?

Like the one to continue an started game

[formal quest]

Well I do so looks like I'm leaving this out.

Definitely not worth rewriting a bunch of stuff for one joker

[red flower]

Game:start_run I'm pretty sure, it runs the load function in all the objects

[charred widget]

Hello friends! I have a problem with one of my jokers

This is Ho-oh, and it's mechanic is that whenever three cards are discarded, it destroys them and replaces them with three randomly enhanced face cards.

But today while I was playing with it, I noticed that it only destroys the first card, not all three cards

[knotty orchid]

is there any reason this doesn't work when loading a game but it works perfectly if you start a new run?

[patches.pattern]
target = 'functions/state_events.lua'
pattern = "delay(0.4); ease_ante(1); delay(0.4); check_for_unlock({type = 'ante_up', ante = G.GAME.round_resets.ante + 1})"
position = 'at'
match_indent = true
override = true
payload = '''
if not G.GAME.blind.small and not G.GAME.blind.big then
    delay(0.4)
    ease_ante(1)
    delay(0.4)
    check_for_unlock({type = 'ante_up', ante = G.GAME.round_resets.ante + 1})
end```

I've defined two new properties for blinds, small and big

so I can create custom small and big blinds

[slim ferry]

because after the first card is discarded, card.ability.extra.added gets set to false and therefore the check wont pass after the first card

[charred widget]

can you fix this for me? i'd really appreciate it

[slim ferry]

just remove and card.ability.extra.added from the context.discard check

and just add another check for discarding exactly three cards instead

also use SMODS.add_card instead of that entire thing you have to add a face card

oh wait

no youre using SMODS.add_card() like create_card(), you can just do SMODS.add_card on its own and itll add the card to the area it should be in

also dont know if its intentional, but currently its making specifically a jack, queen and king

[charred widget]

I knew it was doing that but I haven't bothered anyone to make the ranks random yet

[slim ferry]

also i'd imagine its easier to just convert the cards directly instead of adding and destroying but i would have to look up how to do that

[charred widget]

yeah you're probably right

[void sparrow]

i'm trying to make a joker that copies the joker to its right but has a 1/4 chance to destroy it
my issue is that its never copying it

[slim ferry]

first issue is old probability system

well not an issue but you should switch to the new one

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/VanillaRemade.lua use vanillaremade as reference because it doesnt have shitty outdated stuff

[void sparrow]

yeah i heard that they changed it, i was waiting to finish all my planned jokers then change it

[slim ferry]

you shouldnt use context.post_trigger for blueprinting effects

it shouldnt need a context check at all

vanillaremade blueprint is just this

[void sparrow]

so just, directly after calculate

[slim ferry]

it is still in the calculate, just without any context check

[void sparrow]

aaaaaaaah, i'll try

[slim ferry]

also you should set the joker buffer back to 0 after the destroying event by the way

oh wait

nvm im blind lMAO

you shouldnt need any arguments for start_dissolve though i think

[void sparrow]

game crashed

[slim ferry]

uh probably the random closing curly bracket?

unless thats closing something i cant see

[void sparrow]

-50IQ, i closed the joker

[slim ferry]

😭

wonderful

[knotty orchid]

When you go to the main_menu from a run, what is the function that stores the info from that run?

[daring fern]

save_run?

[knotty orchid]

It seems so yea

[void sparrow]

but if i remove it the game still crashes

[slim ferry]

i assume now you arent closing the joker at all

which is pretty important

[frosty rampart]

you're ending the whole calculate function after the first blueprint_effect, adding the whole check_for_unlock function, and then continuing to write more code that i assume wants to be in the calculate function

[void sparrow]

no no i am

it just want to close it here

[slim ferry]

oh yeah why is check_for_unlock in the calculate

that should be its own thing

if you even want it

[frosty rampart]

check_for_unlock isn't in the calculate

the calculate ends right before it

and then there's more calculate code outside of any function

[slim ferry]

oh yeah

the calc ends early

also please right click and do format document this indentation isnt great

[void sparrow]

ok hold on, im trying to format bc its not in my right click menu

[slim ferry]

if you right click anywhere on the document it should have a format document option

and if not you can just select everything and do format selection instead

[wet crag]

hi all. back again because i break everything constantly lmao.
this works when the card has an edition, but when it doesnt, i get an error stating that im trying to index edition which is nil. so the "or 0" and "or 1" don't kick in and the game crashes when i attempt to score an uneditioned card with the joker

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.scoring_name == G.GAME.current_round.pokervar_hand then
            if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
                if (G.GAME.current_round.hands_played == 0) then
                    if context.other_card == context.scoring_hand[1] then
                        context.other_card.should_destroy = true
                        local chips = context.other_card:get_chip_bonus()
                        local edition_chips = context.other_card.edition.chips or 0
                        local mult = context.other_card:get_chip_mult()
                        local edition_mult = context.other_card.edition.mult or 0
                        local x_mult = context.other_card:get_chip_x_mult() or 1
                        local edition_x_mult = context.other_card.edition.x_mult or 1
                        local x_chips = context.other_card:get_chip_x_bonus() or 1
                        local edition_x_chips = context.other_card.edition.x_chips or 1
                        local e_mult = context.other_card:get_chip_e_mult() or 1
                        local edition_e_mult = context.other_card.edition.e_mult or 1
                        local e_chips = context.other_card:get_chip_e_bonus() or 1
                        local edition_e_chips = context.other_card.edition.e_chips or 1
                        local text = G.FUNCS.get_poker_hand_info(G.play.cards)
                        ...

[void sparrow]

formating did nothing, the code didn't change lmao

[slim ferry]

because context.other_card.edition doesnt exist if the card doesnt have an edition i think

[slim ferry]

code doesnt change but indentation should change

makes it better readable

[wet crag]

so should i add like,
if context.other_card.edition =! nil then to all of the edition parts?

[frosty rampart]

you can just say "if context.other_card.edition", nil is treated as false and nearly anything else as true

[daring fern]

No, it should be ((context.other_card.edition or {}).chips or 0)

[void sparrow]

I can't see the diffrence, and i tried those two buttons

[slim ferry]

well doesnt really matter

this code looks like it should work though

[void sparrow]

it refused, my IQ is lowering after each crash

[frosty rampart]

you're always returning no matter what at the blueprint effect, so i think the game doesn't like that you have more code after it

[void sparrow]

but if i add an end it closes the calculate

[slim ferry]

just put the blueprint effect after probably

that should work just fine

[void sparrow]

blueprint doesn't wrk,,,

[wet crag]

placeholder art but it finally works as intended !!!

[wild escarp]

I've got this to add all played poker hands to a table, so how can I cycle through and upgrade all poker hands not in the table?

if context.before and context.main_eval and not context.blueprint then
    card.ability.extra.scored_hands[#card.ability.extra.scored_hands+1] = context.scoring_hand
end

[clear ocean]

Ngl placeholder goes hard

[subtle merlin]

how can i tell how many cards are being destroyed in context.destroy_cards (or context.destroying_cards if that's the right context)?

[red flower]

destroy_card is to destroy, remove_playing_cards is when they're destroyed

#context.removed would be the number

[split saddle]

Is there a way to make the enhancement appear after the cards are raised in a way that scores the enhancement?

left is scoring, right is unscoring

[subtle merlin]

in that case can i also check context.scoring_hand to see whether or not it was a discard?

[red flower]

yes

i think

[wet crag]

his name is jacques and he is a delightful little (big) rat

[subtle merlin]

Oki, ty! (I'll try it and if it doesn't work I'll be back later)

[unborn bay]

note that having any card state change on an event, like enhancements or editions, will not apply it retroactively to the scoring
that being said what's your call to card:set_edition looking like

[split saddle]

I did a fix already, but thanks

[unborn bay]

ah good

[split saddle]

instead of doing v:set_edition() inside of the event, i just v:juice_up() and it worked out fine

[ivory widget]

apologies for the late reply, got caught up in something
how do i use the my_pos from here? this is what i made so far, but it doesn't work

[wind steppe]

how do i get a poker hand's name from its key?

[mild night]

can someone explain to me what 'G.SHADERS['CRT']:send('noise_fac',0.001*G.SETTINGS.GRAPHICS.crt/100)' does exactly in game.lua

[short girder]

this dude is iterating through every card in the deck for count for some reason, which i dont want it to do

config = { extra = { count = 0 }},
...
--in the calculate function
  if context.end_of_round and not context.repetition and context.individual then
    card.ability.extra.count = card.ability.extra.count + 1
  end

[normal crest]

localize(key, 'poker_hands')

[normal crest]

what is the goal

[wind steppe]

it's the crt shader i think

it applies the crt effect based on your settings

[short girder]

i want to check later if count == 'certain value'

i want it to happen after idk 3 rounds lets say

however since it iterates over all the 52 cards in the deck the goal is met instantly

[normal crest]

this line specifically sends a variable called noise_fac to the CRT shader (you can find the shader from extracting the balatro exe file and going to resources/shaders/CRT.fs)

[normal crest]

do if context.end_of_round and context.main_eval and not context.blueprint

[short girder]

gotcha

[cursive gazelle]

@chrome widget , hey . do you have any idea how can i replace / draw on top of the existing background shader ?

[jolly summit]

any idea how to fix it

[wind steppe]

    local _hand, _tally = "Straight Flush", to_big(-1) -- ty vanillaremade for giving me all this code
    for _, handname in ipairs(G.handlist) do
        if SMODS.is_poker_hand_visible(_hand) and to_big(G.GAME.hands[handname].played) > to_big(_tally) then
            _hand = handname
            _tally = to_big(G.GAME.hands[handname].played)
        end
    end
``` why does this crash with custom poker hands (aikoshen)

[chrome widget]

Depends on what you need to do, though it's probably possible to patch the general drawing behavior in game.lua. for example I have a shader that I draw overtop the CRT shader for the entire screen. Depending on where you patch that should be easy enough?

[short girder]

try disabling talisman

[subtle merlin]

I don't understand why this is crashing, by my understanding it should make a playing card with a random suit, rank and have the chance at a random enhancement

ask in the joker forge thread then in #1209506514763522108

[jolly summit]

ok ty

[wind steppe]

bump

[normal crest]

what is the crash

[wind steppe]

this one was from a slightly older version that passed the localized name into SMODS.is_poker_hand_visible

they both crash though

[normal crest]

send the latest crash

not an old one

[red flower]

why would is_poker_hand_visible not take the localized name who designed this

[wind steppe]

it just decided to randomly fix itself never mind

[normal crest]

glad to hear

[wind steppe]

most balanced cryptid joker

[normal crest]

also in your code you want to pass handname instead of _hand to is_poker_hand_visible

[subtle merlin]

Updated and the error changed

[normal crest]

you want only the key, so do pseudorandom_element(what you have).key for both rank and suit

[vast night]

hey quick question: how do i use pseudorandom_probability? I've used the exact same setup as all my other jokers but for some reason im either really lucky hitting literally a 1 in 625 or somethings wrong.

SMODS.pseudorandom_probability(card, 'j_mod_myjoker', card.ability.extra.chance_min, card.ability.extra.chance_max) (chance_min and max are defined and showing up in loc_vars)

[daring fern]

Have you tried printing those values?

[tiny hemlock]

hello, anyone knows how to play music like when the custom joker is (on the jokers area) and enterin a round the music / theme plays and when the round ends it stops?

[subtle merlin]

It works now, tysm!

[keen sleet]

Should I let the mult be a decimal or round it to be more vanilla?

[rocky plaza]

if u want it to feel more vanilla then round it
i'd suggest rounding up

or down, do whatever

[keen sleet]

Rounding up is a good idea

[true sky]

is there a way to modify the cards in a booster pack after they're already generated? like, adding a specific seal to all the cards that didn't already have a seal, for instance

[red flower]

if anyone finds this info useful

i will add it to the vremade wiki later

[subtle merlin]

what's 'Tarot_Planet'?
-# can't belive i don't know this after 4 months-

[red flower]

it picks a tarot or planet

[subtle merlin]

oh, that makes sense

[red flower]

i will add a note

[gusty compass]

would anyone happen to know if removing cards can work when a hand is played?

[short girder]

how do i fetch a joker name from a key?

[red flower]

#💻・modding-dev message

[short girder]

gotcha

[red flower]

before it's scored?

[gusty compass]

yea

do you need the code by any chance?

[red flower]

you can destroy the card in context.press_play

[short girder]

do i keep type = "name_text" or do i have to change it

[red flower]

i actually didnt know this, this is a kinda cool effect

[red flower]

keep it

[short girder]

gotcha

[gusty compass]

so context.press_play might be interfering with next(context.poker_hands["Three of a Kind"])

[red flower]

yeah poker hands are not calculated until after

what's the intended effect?

[gusty compass]

when you play a three of a kind, with the first card (scoring or not) being a 7

gain $7 and destroy that card

[red flower]

oh, so you dont need the card to be destroyed before scoring then?

[gusty compass]

i suppose

[red flower]

use context.destroy_card and return { remove = true }

[gusty compass]

maybe after the money is given but im not sure if that works

i tried

[red flower]

and?

[gusty compass]

earlier a few times and it did nothing as far as i remember

[red flower]

show me the code then

[gusty compass]

only worked with context.discard

fyi i did make a few changes before i did the context.destroy_card thing

idk if it made a difference

calculate = function(self, card, context)
local condition = false

    if context.before and next(context.poker_hands["Three of a Kind"]) then
        for i = 1, #G.play.cards do
            if i == 1 and G.play.cards[i].base.id == 7 then
                condition = true
            end
        end

        if condition then
            ease_dollars(7)

            return {
                message = localize("$").."7",
                colour = G.C.MONEY,
                remove = true
            }
        end
    end
end

[red flower]

let me write how it would be for you

[gusty compass]

alr

[red flower]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.destroy_card and next(context.poker_hands["Three of a Kind"])
    and context.destroy_card == context.full_hand[1] and context.destroy_card:get_id() == 7 then
        return {
            dollars = 7,
            remove = true
        }
    end
end,

[gusty compass]

should i paste that in and see what happens with it?

[red flower]

yes

[wild escarp]

Bump

[gusty compass]

i dont think it did anything

[red flower]

how did you test it

and whats the current code looking like

[gusty compass]

SMODS.Joker {
key = "GG_777",
atlas = "atlasholders",
pos = {x = 1, y = 0},

rarity = 2,
cost = 7,

loc_txt = {
    name = "777",
    text = {
        "If the played hand is a {C:attention}Three Of A Kind{},",
        "and the first card is a {C:attention}7{} {C:inactive}(Scored or not){},",
        "destroy that card and gain {C:money}$7{}."
    }
},

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.destroy_card and context.cardarea == G.play and next(context.poker_hands["Three of a Kind"])
    and context.destroy_card == context.full_hand[1] and context.destroy_card:get_id() == 7 then
        return {
            dollars = 7,
            remove = true
        }
    end
end,

--[[calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.before and next(context.poker_hands["Three of a Kind"]) then
        for i = 1, #G.play.cards do
            if i == 1 and G.play.cards[i].base.id == 7 then
                ease_dollars(7)

                return {
                    message = localize("$").."7",
                    colour = G.C.MONEY,
                    remove = true
                }
            end
        end
    end
end]]

}

i commented out my old one and used your one instead

[red flower]

oh oops i see the problem haha

[gusty compass]

its alright

[red flower]

there, edited it

it wasnt working with unscored cards

[gusty compass]

it works which is a plus

just curious if i can move it before scoring?

like when it happens

[red flower]

yeah but its a bit more complicated because you need to evaluate the poker hand manually, also it will change the poker hand so it might be a bit punishing (if a flush with a 3oak is played and the 7 is destroyed it wont count as a flush anymore)

[gusty compass]

oh, well i guess you win some and you lose some

thanks for the help though

[subtle merlin]

I understand some parts of patching now, but how can I find the target and pattern I want to patch?

[red flower]

the target is the line(s) in the code you want to patch before/at/after and the pattern is what you want to add to/replace it for

[subtle merlin]

Aahhhh, oki

[ivory citrus]

Hello, I am trying to make it so that for each blind selected, this moss card creates another moss card.

[wild escarp]

bump

[subtle merlin]

in calculate make it so that in context.setting_blind you use SMODS.add_card() to create a new card with the same enhancement
-# i am pretty sure this is correct, if someone smarter comes along then take their advice instead

[lament agate]

is there a way to affect the joker's scaling

looking at the scalae code, brain hurt

[manic rune]

hook to Game:update, check for value changes and multiply the difference

thats how i did it for stacked

[lament agate]

it will only affect jokers right

[manic rune]

mhm

[lament agate]

got it

thanks bepis

mwah

[manic rune]

:3

[lament agate]

your mod blows btw

[manic rune]

like, 99182 crashes specifically?

[lament agate]

mhm

[manic rune]

fire

check stacked's code in hooks.lua if u cant figure it out :3

[red flower]

hi bepis

[manic rune]

hi N'

how its going

[red flower]

im tired

going to zzzzzzz

[manic rune]

ic

[red flower]

just did 3 smods prs tho

[manic rune]

go to sleep then!

common W's W

[lament agate]

dont worry

im used to hooking

i love hookers

[manic rune]

im giving you the silent treatment nxkoo

[wild escarp]

bump

[manic rune]

wish i could help but im away from my pc for a few days sob

sorry

[oak meadow]

how do i get a random number, being 1 or 2
im trying to look at the info thing for math.random() but its confusing

[faint yacht]

pseudorandom(pseudoseed('farts'), 1, 2)

[oak meadow]

best seed

[plain ember]

Hello guys, im really losing it with this, idk why is stack overflowing, and its not the getjokerid, its the "if G.jokers" line, can someone illuminate me please?

[oak meadow]

ty

[plain ember]

Error screen if it helps

[manic rune]

whats getJokerID??

[manic rune]

to this

[plain ember]

function getJokerID(card) --Stolen from Yahiamice Mod
    if G.jokers then
        local _selfid = 0
        for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
            if G.jokers.cards[i] == card then _selfid = i end
        end
        return _selfid
    end
end

[manic rune]

mm

dont save cards into your card.ability

its a bad idea

[plain ember]

I'm very new at modding balatro, so im just making a bunch of random stuff to learn how does the enviroment work

Should i store it in locals then?

[manic rune]

nop

mark the joker with a flag

whats the effect

[plain ember]

Its supposed to force trigger a joker from its sides

[manic rune]

why do you need to store jokers then?

[plain ember]

Force trigger

not like, retriggering

[manic rune]

does force trigger need to do that

[plain ember]

but now that you say it

[manic rune]

that sounds weird

[oak meadow]

can you not just get the placement of the joker and toss that in there

[manic rune]

-# for context, ive never checked how cryptid's force trigger works

[sturdy compass]

[oak meadow]

itd make sense

[plain ember]

Exactly, that's what i was about to say ahahaha

[sturdy compass]

I have broken that thrice now lmfao

[manic rune]

u hate me because im right!

[plain ember]

I could save the placement instead of the card itself

[manic rune]

:3

you also dont need to save the placement

how are jokers force triggered?

[plain ember]

According to cryptid, just card and context as args

[oak meadow]

pretty sure you could just replace card with the location

[manic rune]

mhm

[oak meadow]

or use that as i mean

[plain ember]

I dont want to touch the og cryptid code, so ill just store the number placement and call it with G.jokers.cards[id]

instead of saving it

[manic rune]

does Cryptid.forcetrigger return a table?

[oak meadow]

no like
dont touch the cryptid code

just use the location of the card as card

[manic rune]

if so, you want to use SMODS.merge_effects too

[plain ember]

I think it does but its related to vanilla compatibility effects

what's merge effects?

[manic rune]

local id = getJokerID(card)
if id then
   local ret1 = G.jokers and G.jokers.cards[id+1] and Cryptid.forcetrigger(G.jokers.cards[id+1], context) or {}
   local ret2 =  G.jokers and G.jokers.cards[id-1] and Cryptid.forcetrigger(G.jokers.cards[id-1], context) or {}
   return SMODS.merge_effects({ret1, ret2})
end

either that or

just Cryptid.force_trigger on the adjacent jokers without returning anything

idk

[lament agate]

@manic rune this is just for you

[manic rune]

good job nxkoo

[lament agate]

ghh

[manic rune]

if theres 2 or more return tables then u want to use SMODS.merge_effects to combine them

[manic rune]

rq can u copy the whole code of the function over here

[plain ember]

I think imma test it tomorrow, its quite late here, i'll do some tests with it tho

[manic rune]

mhm

do note this is assuming that it works like SMODS.blueprint_effect

[oak meadow]

if i do G.money = G.money - 5
will it just do what i think
because i dont remember if thats how that works it probably is but i feel like i have to ask sry

[manic rune]

ease_dollars(-5)

[plain ember]

Not really since its not a retrigger

[manic rune]

and its G.GAME.dollars for the value

-# changing it directly wont give you the animation

[oak meadow]

ty

[wild escarp]

Is there an example of a modded joker that upgrades multiple hands at once somewhere?

[plain ember]

Think it like
a card that forces a perkeo at its side without fulfilling its context requirements

[oak meadow]

i can call ease_dollars() outside of a return riht

[manic rune]

mhm

[oak meadow]

ok just making sure

[plain ember]

Cryptid mod, theres planet cards that does that

[manic rune]

shrug

[oak meadow]

how do i get a random poker hand
