i was too lazy to change it from a consumable so take from this whatever you need, but it displayed the following for me

stiff locust
#

woah

modern kindle
#

and the card stats in question so theyre clearly correct

image.png
stiff locust
#

if your exact code doesn't work on mine i'm gonna drain

#

also your top 10 is

#

quite interesting

modern kindle
#

thanks lmao

stiff locust
#

gros michel and photograph huh

modern kindle
#

let me show you why photo is

#

playing kings and queens free repeated x2 mult

#

since i ahve a blackjack poker hand and you can just do ace and king, makes life a dream

#

hi smt

#

why you thinkin me am i not smart enough

stiff locust
#

that joker as a common

#

feels crazy

modern kindle
#

see it doesnt feel like its worth an uncommon because alone it isnt good at all

#

i need to eventually make a rarity between common and uncommon

stiff locust
#

name it ncommon

modern kindle
#

but debuffing every card besides your king or queen is a huge loss

#

means no other cards with editions, enhancements, etc work for you

stiff locust
#

hmmm

modern kindle
#

so its synergy relies pretty much on its retriggers and things that will mult with it

stiff locust
#

my top 10 probably won't have any surprises

modern kindle
#

has the code worked out for you or is your build somehow violently broken

modern kindle
stiff locust
#

i've been removing the code for spawning a random top10 joker cause i don't need to do that

modern kindle
#

ye sorry, i was just editing my spawn most used joker consumable

#

too lazy to make a whole new one

#

(it wouldve been 30 seconds more)

stiff locust
#

oh hey it worked

#

epic

stiff locust
#

I still don't know why it didn't work when I tried to do it

modern kindle
#

now say im co creator of all of your mods and i get 50% of all of your future earnings in this world

stiff locust
#

i credited you in the comments above the function that's what i usually do

#

would people consider that enough

modern kindle
#

i imagine so, i personally dont care if im credited or not but it makes me smile if i come across being credited

stiff locust
#

it's in there for you when i make a mod release in 3 weeks

modern kindle
#

huge

stiff locust
#

i have so much shit to do

modern kindle
#

one day ill release my mod when my artists are not sitting around staring at their screens

#

id be ready for a release by now if not for that

stiff locust
#

i'm just procrastinating because I need to do a huge bugfix to my most complex joker

modern kindle
#

ive fixed most of my issues but i have not met a lazier class of creator than that of the artist

#

ive even tried bribing them with food delivery and they accepted the food to only still not do art im going to explode

stiff locust
modern kindle
#

probably, but i can only speak on the artists i know which is like 5 or so

#

one can only ever speak on their own experience

crystal perch
#

anyone know why i keep crashing when i try to detect if the current highlighted joker(s) have eternal? i've tried pretty much every permutation i can think under the moon and i have no idea why i'm still getting crashes

image.png 📎 message.txt
stiff locust
#

why not just check card.ability.eternal

crystal perch
#

doesn't work

stiff locust
#

why not

crystal perch
#

i don't know

#

doing if card.ability.eternal then still does a crash

#

scratch that it doesn't crash but it doesn't work

#

even other_card.ability.eternal doesn't work

#

no idea why it was crashing earlier, probably because i still had or other_card.ability.perishable or other_card.ability.rental uncommented

subtle merlin
crystal perch
#

let me try iterating

that did it thank you

frigid cargo
#

bump

modern kindle
#

Im sorry I haven't worked with rarities yet they're one of my blind spots

frigid cargo
#

aw ok

#

actually you might be able to help, im just having struggle with localization

subtle merlin
#

in the code provided there isnt a loc_txt; if there is a localization file then it's done improperly

frigid cargo
#

oh should i send my localization of where i put it?

modern kindle
#

My best advice for localization is to use the localization file, and use the dump_loc in your metadata to make one easily
Just be sure to disable all other mods

frigid cargo
# subtle merlin i have, allow me: 
    misc = {
        challenge_name = {
            c_btct_PipisChallenge_1 = "Pipis",
        },
        dictionary = {
            k_shape_booster_group = "Geometric Pack",
            k_btct_booster_group = "Batrocities Pack",
            k_btct_Elite = "Elite",
        },
        labels = {
            k_btct_Elite = "Elite",
        }
    }

the boosters work but challenges and rarities dont...

frigid cargo
modern kindle
#

What do you mean

#

I said everything

frigid cargo
#

oh so it just removes localization after or smth?

subtle merlin
#

at least from what i saw in my 10 seconds of looking (ive never used these before)

modern kindle
#

It creates a dumped file of all localization entries you'd use in a localization file
Which the localization file is used for ease of translating to other languages
But you'd have to remove your own loc_txt from each item that has it afterwards

frigid cargo
frigid cargo
modern kindle
#

It dumps all of them
So after it was dumped you'd just remove the loc_txt from whatever has it, if only jokers have it then you'd only remove it from jokers

frigid cargo

oh i see thanks

I have i have a joker that can be sold repeatedly and a hook that i want to limit the amount of times that joker can be sold per round. The issue I'm running into is that i can't access the variable that limits the sells in the hook as that variable is tied to the joker

I should really go to sleep, my sleep schedule is horrible

now i'm getting this error when playing a card

Screenshot_2025-08-08_at_6.21.16_pm.png
subtle merlin
#

how did i miss that- you're calling card.ability.extra.xmult without setting up a config

velvet ingot
#

where do I place that in my script?

subtle merlin
#

Anywhere above your calculate.
-# (technically above all functions but you only have the calculate so it's irrelevant)
Again: look at other mods for reference, i cannot stress how much it helps early on.

modern kindle
#

Look at other mods always
Tends to be a huge help
Most of the time something you want to do has been similarly done before

#

I sometimes still look at other mods, even if its not super often

subtle merlin

i do a lot but mainly bc i love to sanity-check myself :3

i'm back again and the joker is working now! I was just wondering how you add a "[currently ___ mult]" thingie at the bottom

Hello, I have a question. I’m making a joker that gives 50 chips for each queen played in the hand. I’ve read some mod code but I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong here.: config = {
extra = {
chip_gain = 50,

    }
},

calculate = function(self, card, context)
if context.main_scoring and context.cardarea == G.hand and not context.end_of_round and context.other_card:get_id() == 12 then

    card.ability.extra.chips = card.ability.extra.chips + card.ability.extra.chip_gain
    return {
        chips = card.ability.extra.chips
    }
end

end

frigid cargo

subtle merlin
daring fern
subtle merlin

oh shit yea it doesn't

daring fern
#

Also context.main_scoring isn't called for jokers.

wintry blade
wintry blade
foggy ginkgo
#

You only have chips_gain

#

Actually you don't need the adding thing either

#

If you're doing it how baron is you just need

    if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.hand and not context.end_of_round and context.other_card:get_id() == 12 then
        if context.other_card.debuff then
            return {
                message = localize('k_debuffed'),
                colour = G.C.RED
            }
        else
            return {
                chips = card.ability.extra.chips
            }
        end
    end
end,
#

Where each queen gives 50 chips

#

Wait played in hand as in hand area or the cards scored-

#

Sorry Violet I took over lmao

the card scored, i just realised im using the wrong joker for exampled

Actually Violet, later ofc, but could you explain the concept of the joker

#

I'm half getting it

velvet ingot
#

I know someone asked this like half an hour ago, but how would you make a joker always appear eternal? I tried stickers = {'eternal'} but that didn't seem to work

feral tree
#

speaking of eternals, How do i have a deck spawn a specific modded joker with the eternal sticker?

rotund sable
#

In the add_to_deck

feral tree
rotund sable
#

What's that if statement?

#

Otherwise if it works then it works

feral tree
#

It's eternal for a set amount of rounds before the eternal sticker is removed and it can be sold

rotund sable
#

add_to_deck is only called when buying the joker

#

Iirc

feral tree
#

No it's when the joker is obtained at all

rotund sable
#

Yeah I meant that

#

When jokers spawn overall

#

Collection, shop etc

feral tree
#

Think card:set_eternal(true) is for something adding a joker with an eternal sticker actually

#

yeah i think card: is used for modifying other jokers or the joker that is using card:

rotund sable
#

card in functions is generally the card that the function is in

feral tree
#

not always

#

you can use card: or some variation of it to modify other cards

feral tree
#

wait

#

oh damn i think the answers in that convo

#

that didn't work so im once again asking for help

rotund sable

how do I make a custom enhancement?

#

i looked at that site, and I am quite new to programming in any language other that gdscript so i'm a bit confused on how to actually create the enhancement, the whole thing looks a bit confusing

rotund sable

You can look at vanilla remade

To see how the vanilla ones are made

I'm confused on how the loc_txt works

pastel kernel
#

How do I make an epileptic gradient

#

Like tuahngents

paper elbow
#

Right now I'm just trying to do it in-line as part of the object:

Leaves = SMODS.Suit {
    key = 'Leaves',
    card_key = 'L',
    pos = { y = 3 },
    ui_pos = { x = 3, y = 1 },
    loc_txt = {
        ['en-us'] = {
            name = "Leaves",
            plural = "Leaves",
            singular = "Leaf"
        }
    },
    keep_base_colours = true,
    hc_colour = HEX('3EA055'),
    lc_colour = HEX('3EA055')
}

I have made a localization file and copied the blank skeleton structure from SMODS docs, but I don't want to have to populate it yet. I would like to just be able to see the "Rank of Suit" description in-game, as it were.

then do something if they are wild cards

dreamy thunder
# 
for k, v in pairs(G.play.cards) do
    if SMODS.has_enhancement(v,"enhancement_goes_here") then

        -- do something here
            
    end
end
#

oh wait

#

you can probably do it easier by looping through context.individual

# 

if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
    if SMODS.has_enhancement(context.other_card,"m_wild") then
    end
end
gaunt coral
#

since im using similar logic in other jokers that act upon cards being scored

dreamy thunder

what do you want to happen to the wild cards found in G.play

#

sorry im a little slow in the head 😭

What is 'i' in this case? Is your code inside a for loop of some kind? I don't see any kind of for loop, but using '[i]' implies the contents of your func (except the return) should be in one.

It gets set to 1 when this consumable is used and after one hand gets played it get's reverted to the original. And the hand select size SMODS.change_play_limit

something like this i think

and just get rid of everything else in the calculate section?

whatkind of an event handler might i put to just changed the loc_txt if unlocked = false?

wispy falcon

Maybe you have a life system and it makes you lose a live? Or reduces your score

nah idea

#

discards => folds

and it just redraws everything from a reshuffled deck

what does this mean

i'm trying to set a value to either what it already is, or 1, because i'm transferring values from a fusion material joker to the fused joker, but I don't want it to break if you obtain it without fusing it (mostly by spanwing it in with debug or cryptid's DoE)

#

if I don't do that the values won't exist if you didn't fuse it, but now it's giving me this error
even though card.ability.extra does exist

slim ferry

#

so, like this?

SMODS.Consumeable:take_ownership('c_strength',
    {
    config = {max_highlighted = 3}
    },
    true
)```
stiff locust
#

wait i'm fuckin stupid nevermind

#

i was setting card.ability.extra = function but the function doesn't return anything

so it was being set to nil

though idk if that matters since strength has no other variables afaik

other cards do have more variables i think so i'm gonna do that

red flower
#

yes

stiff locust
#

then why the fuck isn't this working

#

i feel like i'm going insane I've got code here in my joker

#

for context i'm transferring a LOT of values from 1 joker to another

#

because fusionjokers can't transfer tables when fusing jokers I have to do it myself

#

everything works except actually putting the table of values into the joker as the last step

#

but when I do the last step manually with debugplus, it just works

wintry solar
#

why can't you transfer tables?

stiff locust
#

the joker can't do it itself for some reason and I don't know why

stiff locust
#

I don't know what to tell you

wintry solar
#

what method are you using?

stiff locust
#

on the material's remove_from_deck, i set a global table to be equal to its card.ability.extra
on the fused joker's set_ability, I set its card.ability.extra to be equal to that global table or a list of dummy values for card.ability.extra so it doesn't crash if you look at it in the collection

#

i can't use a local table because i'm moving the table between files, I put the legendary and gold fusion jokers in different files

#

but the table starts with my mod name so it shouldn't clash with anything ever

#

the fused joker just simply isn't doing this part

on the fused joker's set_ability, I set its card.ability.extra to be equal to that global table or a list of dummy values
it always uses everything after the or even though the value before does exist

#

and it works if I do that final step manually using debugplus eval

#

the other code in its set_ability also runs perfectly fine

wintry solar
#

are you handling all your fusion stuff within remove from deck and set_ability?

latent perch
stiff locust
#

not all of it, just for this one joker

#

because this one joker has way too many values that I need to transfer and no other method worked so far

#

the fusion API handles actually fusing the joker as usual

I am not a fan of reading through multiple git messages

wintry solar
wintry solar
stiff locust
#

I think fusionjokers got edited to allow you to transfer 2 values at once and you can add them together if you want

#

nobody else really makes fusions anymore though, and I've only run into this once on this joker right now

wintry solar
#

are you transferring everything from one table to the other?

stiff locust
#

everything yes

wintry solar
#

are there any repeats across the two?

stiff locust
#

i separated the other values of the fused joker so nothing clashes

wintry solar
#

have you tried using SMODS.merge_defaults?

stiff locust
#

there are no repeats because the fused joker doesn't have any values in that table at default

daring fern
stiff locust
wintry solar
stiff locust
#

I can try that

clear ocean
#

the jokers aren't being added in

image.png
stiff locust
#

the main issue is that if I use a function to merge the values, I still need to use an or somewhere

#

because otherwise the joker will crash in the collection

modern kindle
stiff locust
#

if I have the fused joker already have the values nothing will get merged because they're all dupes so it crashes on hover in collection

clear ocean
stiff locust
#

I made a table merge function myself and tried to do it that way and crashing on hover in the collection is kind of a bad thing

# wintry solar can you show the big that isnt working

the other code in here works fine (it gets the win sticker for another one of my jokers, the gimmick of the gold legendary fusions is that they gain additional effects scaling based on the stake you've won with another joker on)

Tsunami_Rise_Transfer is the global table I'm using to transfer them, and if I set the fused joker's card.ability.extra to Tsunami_Rise_Transfer using debugplus after fusing the joker it works, so I don't think it's anything to do with this table in itself

this or and any or i put here as a matter of fact simply doesn't work and I don't get why when Tsunami_Rise_Transfer clearly exists and I can access it

have you tried printing it on the line above to make sure it's actually got stuff in

stiff locust

i've printed it out with debugplus after fusing it and it does indeed have the right things in it

as mentioned if I set its card.ability.extra table to Tsunami_Rise_Transfer after fusing it with debugplus, everything works

I tried doing if Tsunami_Rise_Transfer instead of the or to check it exists, but that didn't work either and I also don't know why

#

the fusion happens all at the same time
the transfer table doesn't exist until after the joker has been fused

#

and that's too late to do it

#

I either have to save the transfer table sooner or merge it later and I don't think I can do either of those in an efficient manner that won't break

#

I could have the transfer table save as a lazy update in every context on the original joker

#

assuming that's not too resource intensive

#

yeah that's probably the only way I can do this

you could just build it into the api

I mean it seems like something that it should cover

being limited to only merging two values seems strange

I can't really understand how its code works even if I wanted to change it myself and I fear that if I did it would cause a crash when you fuse anything that would require every other fusion joker to make a change to its API call

try the one from the lovely dump

#

but also it's not a good idea to replace functions lol

split saddle
#

i'm trying to make a voucher that increases the effects of all consumables. i tried some things and even went into cryptid code (ew). in the end i decided to modify the function with the cards (or the cards themselves, but i haven't gone there yet)

also i was told that :take_ownership is what i want but i don't know where to put it so that it will work

can i see what youre doing

split saddle
#

there's nothing to see right now

#

aside from what i told you about copy-pasting

red flower
#

send a screenshot i mean

#

sometimes it's something dumb that you dont realize

#

i also tried patching it in but now that you mention the lovely dump that was probably the reason it didn't work
also i'm still trying to find a way of doing it with :take_ownership if you have any ideas :>

its this and the part that crashes is the part to unlock the deck

isnt your calculate missing an end

#

vscode tells you if youre missing something like that, its underlined red

mighty kiln
modern kindle
#

then it means youre missing something else

#

more than 1 thing can be wrong

#

but you are definitely missing an end

#

i would recommend reading more on lua, smods docs, and learn from other mods

Is there a way to add a set chip amount to the next hand played and then reset back to original values for the hand and play limit afterwards? I need it for my consumable

quick question is there a context for using a consumable from a booster pack?

wow this time I only asked 1 question, I'm getting better chat

rapid stag
#

i wanna make a joker that can softlock the game and forces a run reset if the blind was beaten by at least 3x the required score emberuSip
i know how to check against the score now, but what are some ways i can softlock the game in this way? ideally, i would like the event queue to still be running

frigid birch
#

brilliant idea and way to nerf me lol

split saddle
#

how can you check if a consumable has been discovered?

rapid stag
#

try G.P_CENTERS.<consumable key>.discovered

frigid birch
#

is it necessary to have different atlases if they have the same png?

#

probably stupid question

red flower
#

no

frigid birch
#

k

you can use the same one

#

is there a way to check the blind score and how much youve scored currently?

i could make it for discarding and hand or just discarding

on default you can select up to five but theres an api call to lower or increase the number

subtle merlin

#

oh i got an idea for a voucher, increase the chances of an uncommon or rare joker card

keen atlas
#

ah

clear ocean
#

can either make one just for uncommon cards and then rare cards or do something like hone/glow up

try this (might need some debugging xd)

I give up asking questions since it seems like nobody knows it

#

also that question is a little hard in general

#

and the wording is a little confusing

punctuation and wording

i think you can be more concise in what you want

name is inspired by baseball joker but maybe the latter is too long

maybe something like "double fine" or "third base"

N', context.eremel, Eris, etc

#

very smart and cool people imo

clear ocean
#

what do you yall think for the voucher names

wispy falcon
#

If you want the one shorter, maybe call it 'Out the Park'?

clear ocean
#

or Park Out?

By the way, what could I do, while I wait for my question to be answered?
