[ocean sinew]

pseudorandom("Better Call Jimbo_Gus Fring_buff") <=card.ability.extra.chance
does this not allow me to manipulate the numerator and denominator easier?

and how I would replace it

or is it same thing

[manic rune]

if SMODS.pseudorandom_probability(card, "Better Call Jimbo_Gus Fring_buff", base_numerator, base_denominator) then

[ocean sinew]

can we get a lua ast parser into Steamodded?

[manic rune]

base numerator in question is the first number in 1 in 4, while base denominator is the latter

[ocean sinew]

for code manipulation

I NEED A LUA AST PARSER

Can someone give me tips to improve my code? It works right now but i also wanna learn how people can utilize stuff easier.

[manic rune]

shouldnt the delay in events already be accounting for G.SETTINGS.GAMESPEED

idk

i think this is fine

[frigid cargo]

No idea, the else i dont know anything about

[ocean sinew]

no I think

[faint yacht]

Still had to have that global. 😅

[manic rune]

huh

idk then

[ocean sinew]

don't use math.random()

use pseudorandom()

[faint yacht]

Sorry, math.random() is preferred here.

pseudorandom if I want to do some actual gameplay stuff.

[manic rune]

you can use math.random for stuff like random sounds, random events, whatever

pseudorandom only really matters for gameplay purposes, yeah

[ocean sinew]

I thought it was gameplay stuff

[ocean sinew]

https://github.com/fab13n/metalua-parser
how hard would be exporting this to balatro?

[faint yacht]

That function is used only by PCMCIA Card.

[solar eagle]

wat da hell my probability stuff stopped working

[frigid cargo]

[solar eagle]

it was working yesterday fine??

[frigid cargo]

Whats the problem? It just doesnt proc orrrr…?

[solar eagle]

wait

hold up

i might be soup

[ocean sinew]

did u mak an change in cod

[solar eagle]

Let me double check this .

Yeah im soup

To make sure blueprint wouldnt trigger i checked for

context.no_blueprint??????

instead of not context.blueprint

[ocean sinew]

no

[solar eagle]

I may be soup

lmaoo

[frigid cargo]

[solar eagle]

I really should not have been coding at like 1am

[frigid cargo]

I code better if its 1am or later

The problem is i shouldnt be up at 1am-5am

But i still do it anyways

[heavy frigate]

What is NFS?
VanillaRemade mentions NFS in NFS.getDirectoryItems but i cannot find anything about what NFS actually is

[wind steppe]

NFS is nativefs

tldr it helps you load files en masse

[solemn shuttle]

is there a way to easily figure out when a glass card specifically breaks or would i need to hook shatter() or smth

[heavy frigate]

Thanks, and yes i am as i decided to split everything into a separate lua file for my own sanity.
And until now i've been relying on a big table that specifies everything i need to load.

[wind steppe]

Breaks or is destroyed by any means

[daring fern]

You would check for card.glass_trigger

[solemn shuttle]

just breaks from the probability check i had meant

[solemn shuttle]

like if card.glass_trigger == true or

[wind steppe]

check glass joker in vanillaremade

[solemn shuttle]

oh wait yeah LOL

forgot that it checks for glass BROKEN not glass KEPT

[wind steppe]

you'd think glass joker triggers off any destruction but it doesn't

it's ONLY natural destruction and hanged man

[daring fern]

Yes, but you should just do if card.glass_trigger

[solemn shuttle]

oh ye tru

-# thank yall lol :3

[azure laurel]

im having trouble with this tarot, i copy paste the code from vanilla remade but on use the game crashes and i cant tell which is the problem here, someone can help me?

[sleek cliff]

bump?

[wind steppe]

you're missing a mod prefix

in mod_conv

[azure laurel]

what i should put?

[heavy frigate]

My mod now automatically loads every .lua file
So now i can make new stuff without ever touching main.lua again

[sturdy compass]

W

[daring fern]

Yes, it would be m_modprefix_balanced

[azure laurel]

litteray that?

[daring fern]

No, modprefix would be your mod prefix.

[azure laurel]

forget it, i think i got it

now works yipe

[modern kindle]

remove from deck supports from debuff as well right

[red flower]

yes

[modern kindle]

thanks bestie

[stiff locust]

what function could I hook to activate an effect when a run is won

[frigid cargo]

how do i check if a sprites soul pos is this specific y?

[daring fern]

win_game

[daring fern]

if card.children.floating_sprite.sprite_pos.y == number

[rapid stag]

if lose run, win run. if win run, lose run

[frigid cargo]

ok thanks

if Flopprobj and btct_Floppr_dt > 0.1 and Flopprobj.children.floating_sprite.sprite_pos.y == 4 then
        btct_Floppr_dt = btct_Floppr_dt - 0.1
        if Flopprobj.soul_pos.x > 10 then 
            Flopprobj.soul_pos.x = 0 
        else
            Flopprobj.soul_pos.x = Flopprobj.soul_pos.x + 1
        end
    elseif Flopprobj and btct_Floppr_dt > 0.1 and Flopprobj.children.floating_sprite.sprite_pos.y == 5 then
        btct_Floppr_dt = btct_Floppr_dt - 0.1
        if Flopprobj.soul_pos.x > 11 then 
            Flopprobj.soul_pos.x = 0 
        else
            Flopprobj.soul_pos.x = Flopprobj.soul_pos.x + 1
        end
    end

im tryna make the animations change if the sprite soul is a specific y, the problem is the game crashes cause children is nil, how can i fix this?

[daring fern]

Flopprobj is not a card.

It would be Flopprobj.soul_pos.y == number

[frigid cargo]

ahhhh i see

[stiff locust]

how do i check joker rarity again

[crystal perch]

having a bit of trouble getting my card to "soul replace" my other cards. the soul_set is set to the correct set, and soul rate is 100%, so i'm unsure why it's not working

[stiff locust]

is it card.config.center.rarity?

[crystal perch]

yup

[stiff locust]

cool great

[frigid cargo]

works now thanks, only problem now is the joker code not changing its sprite

if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and context.other_card:get_id() == 14 then
            card.children.floating_sprite:set_sprite_pos({ x = 0, y = 5 })
            return {
                xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
            }
        end

[daring fern]

Are you using a booster pack?

[crystal perch]

yes

and booster pack also opens ChakConsumableType

[daring fern]

Do the cards created have soulable = true?

[crystal perch]

is that not on by default?

[daring fern]

No.

[crystal perch]

then no let me do that

[frigid cargo]

did I change the sprite wrong? Or is it cause its animated that some stuff need to be added to actually change?

[stiff locust]

function for exiting shop?

[crystal perch]

context or function?

[stiff locust]

function

[crystal perch]

like, to force you to exit the shop?

[stiff locust]

no

a function that runs when you exit the shop

i need to hook it

[daring fern]

G.FUNCS.toggle_shop

[crystal perch]

also adding soulable = true changed nothing

it still does not appear

[stiff locust]

is that not going to hit when you enter the shop as well

[daring fern]

No, I don't think.

[stiff locust]

oh okay

[frigid cargo]

bump

[rapid stag]

math.round() doesn't exist?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[stiff locust]

math.floor(0.5 + value) does that iirc

[rapid stag]

ahhh

[frigid cargo]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and context.other_card:get_id() == 14 then
            card.children.floating_sprite:set_sprite_pos({ x = 0, y = 7 })
            return {
                xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
            }
        end
    end

[manic rune]

does nothing happen or the sprite is gone

[frigid cargo]

nothing happens

[manic rune]

mm

[frigid cargo]

want the function for anim?

[manic rune]

probably not the correct place to use :set_sprite_pos then, i assume

[frigid cargo]

prob

[manic rune]

if its the correct place then it should either change the sprite or completely disappear (choosing a blank spot on the spritesheet)

[frigid cargo]

it would go to checkmark cause y7 is the last one

maybe its cause the animation is always updating?

[manic rune]

oh wait, it is?

can you show me that update code

thats likely the case

yeah its def that update code, i just tried running the code on my end and it works

[frigid cargo]

just know its a big elseif thing cause idk how to code good and i still have to figure out changing variables inside a joker to outside the joker

[manic rune]

yeah the soul sprite is being force-set here

[heavy frigate]

Is there any expected colour to use for emult?

[frigid cargo]

ah, on which line tho? every?

[manic rune]

usually X:dark_edition,C:white

[daring fern]

G.C.DARK_EDITION

[heavy frigate]

Thanks

[manic rune]

v.children.floating_sprite:set_sprite_pos(Flopperobj.soul_pos)

[frigid cargo]

what would be my best option here to not force it?

[manic rune]

shrug

its ur code sob

[frigid cargo]

i tried removing the for k, v in pairs(G.I.CARD) do but all it does now is just put it on the proper position but its just on x=0 and not update

[manic rune]

...yes, thats the code that handles the animation

sob

[frigid cargo]

😭

do you think i can set a boolean variable on the joker and put an if before the for?

[manic rune]

set something in card.ability to tell the update code which y it is at, and animate accordingly

[manic rune]

this works too

[frigid cargo]

Ill try this cause it seems less complex than what i recommended

Also how do i access a local variable inside a joker code to outside the joker code? Can i make it global to check it from outside?

[manic rune]

add the variable to card.ability

[frigid cargo]

Then what? How do i call it?

[wind steppe]

        G.gacha = G.gacha or UIBox{
            definition = G.UIDEF.gacha(),
            config = {align='tm', offset = {x=0,y=G.ROOM.T.y+11},major = G.hand, bond = 'Weak'}
        }
``` is there anything wrong with this UIBox or is the issue with the definition function

[sleek cliff]

bump? (idk what order to put these in and have them not crash my game

[wind steppe]

move the random joker thing to after the for loop

[sleek cliff]

alrighty

[drowsy heath]

Okay so my mod went from okay to cryptid level very fast

[sleek cliff]

now how do I tie this to a table that I have?

[drowsy heath]

I added a card called David, it's legendary but if you get it then the game is over, as it retriggers every card twice

I think ik why people don't retrigger jokers now

But it's a nice op card the rest of my jokers are tame....

[stiff locust]

how do I get an achievement to unlock itself once its conditions are satisfied

[wind steppe]

are there any issues with this definition function i'm missing?

[stiff locust]

returning true doesn't seem to be working?

[wind steppe]

what conditions

[stiff locust]

i have all the conditions already done

i've done everything and i know it's reaching the achievement code

the achievement just isn't getting unlocked for some reason

[wind steppe]

you're sure check_for_unlock is being called?

[stiff locust]

yep

i put a print inside the checks in the achievement and it gets there

can I not do something like
unga = true
return unga

[wind steppe]

did you unlock all

[stiff locust]

do I need to do return true directly

[wind steppe]

no that should be fine

by default achievements wont earn if youve unlocked all

[stiff locust]

bypass_all_unlocked is- waaait

I need to set that to true don't I

not false.

I thought what that did was make it so the unlock all button would or would not unlock your achievement

[wind steppe]

unlock all doesn't unlock achievements it unlocks like. jokers

[stiff locust]

had no idea

[wind steppe]

not much of an achievement if you get it by pressing one button

[stiff locust]

the sprite isn't aligned properly

but other than that part I did it

it worked

achievement sprites are

66 x 66 right

[drowsy heath]

is it possible to make a joker buff another of the same pool

like say i set something like popcorn with mult loss to say that the mult itself is "cyberwear" then can i have a joker that buffs all jokers that use "cyberwear" as context by 2x

so instead of popcorn doing 20+ whenever i had this other joker it would be 40+ at base instead

if thats possible....

or should i just leave that as a consumable

How do I check for a joker being in a pool

Like as a check for the calculate

Context.other_joker.object_type == ? Would that work

Ima try that

[heavy frigate]

Is there any way to change the order of a mod's items in the collection screen outside of load order?

[sleek cliff]

this is new

[drowsy heath]

okay so im just adding a custom rarity but would it automatically st itself to be rarity 5 ? or do i need to define that, the remade doesnt really show that

[wind steppe]

it'd be your mod prefix then an underscore then the key

[drowsy heath]

huh

wait

like localisation

[subtle merlin]

?

[wind steppe]

what part don't you get

[wind steppe]

G.UIDEF.gacha_button = function()
    local t = {n=G.UIT.ROOT, config = {align = 'cl', colour = G.C.CLEAR}, nodes={
        UIBox_button({ button = "hpot_open_gacha", label = { "Gamble" }, minw = 5 })
    }}
    return t
end

chat i'm going insane why does this crash on load

[subtle merlin]

that

hot potato so i cant look despite wanting to, sorry

[wind steppe]

just tell me i'm not crazy

[frigid cargo]

how do i access an ability.extra on a function for a joker outside of the joker code?

[wind steppe]

vanilla balatro has a G.UIDEF right

[drowsy heath]

it comes up with yellow lines underneath like something is wrong

[wind steppe]

send screenshot

[subtle merlin]

example for you

[drowsy heath]

ok thank you

[subtle merlin]

specify a bit more, please

[drowsy heath]

wait no weight ?

doesnt it need that so it knows how common to come up

[wind steppe]

the weight's in the rarity usually

defaults to 0 afaik

the specific rarity here doesn't appear normally

[vast bough]

hmm I wonder what this is for

[subtle merlin]

that's smth you'd do yourself, i did no weight for my own reasons

[drowsy heath]

oh ok so just add that if i want

[wind steppe]

at least you can help me

[drowsy heath]

ok thats fine thank you

[wind steppe]

G.UIDEF is real right

i feel like i'm going insane

[frigid cargo]

so im making an animation, and i want to set a variable to the current y then tell update which y it is at

[vast bough]

I am not smart enough to help, my knowledge is limited to what jokerforge knows lol

[frigid cargo]

like here

[subtle merlin]

...

[daring fern]

ability.extra would be at card.ability.extra

[subtle merlin]

didnt bepis

answer you there

[frigid cargo]

i not very smart and get confused

[sleek cliff]

bump, this is an error ive never seen before

[wind steppe]

have the gods simply cursed me

[sleek cliff]

real

[drowsy heath]

it still says common in game i dont get what i did wrongggg

[wind steppe]

what do you think random_joker.T.r is doing

[daring fern]

random_joker is a table with a joker in it.

[drowsy heath]

nevermind i was dumb

[sleek cliff]

I'm not entirely sure, but I don't think I entirely need it lol oopsies

[sage crater]

Crazy win more machine

[sleek cliff]

I'll remove it ande see what it does

[daring fern]

No, the problem is random_joker is a table with a joker in it, not the joker inside the table.

Remove the {} around pseudorandom_element

[sleek cliff]

Oh, Iwas told to replace all instances of card to that

[drowsy heath]

so would " if context.other_card.config.rarity == 'mm_cyber' then "work

[subtle merlin]

to get this you need to beat a blind that has 3-7x (i forget exactly) multiplier, i felt it balanced out

[sleek cliff]

where should I move it to?

[daring fern]

No, you would remove it.

[sleek cliff]

oh alrighty

I read move not remove lol

[daring fern]

Also object_type == "DoctorPool" == true will always be false

[sage crater]

So basically just beating a wall/vv

[subtle merlin]

yeah, on ante 4

[daring fern]

You would want if v.config.center.pools and v.config.center.pools.DoctorPool

[drowsy heath]

is enhancing jokers from a different joker even possible ?

[subtle merlin]

ive done it with editions before

[sleek cliff]

thank you, I probably wouldn't have gotten that lol

[subtle merlin]

it should be

[daring fern]

Yes.

[drowsy heath]

like multiplying the base value by 2, i used popcorn as an example but instead of it being +20 it would be +40 if it used instead of mult but a seperate term in he config like cyber

im just struggling with it

[daring fern]

Yes.

[drowsy heath]

not something very simple i figured

but im trying

i just get a crash from a nil context

no matter what i do

[daring fern]

Like Cryptids Gemini?

[drowsy heath]

wait thats a thing

[frigid cargo]

ok now im confused on how to do this, wdym tell the update code which y it is at?

[sleek cliff]

here we go again

[drowsy heath]

let me check their code hold on u might have saved me

i cant find it

[daring fern]

Is the key for the SMODS.ObjectType DoctorPool?

[drowsy heath]

used ctrl+f and typed it in but no results

[daring fern]

Yes, it's called gemino in the code.

[drowsy heath]

in the misc_joker file yeah ?

[daring fern]

No, it's an exotic.

[sleek cliff]

The DoctorPoll is the object type, but I'll change that to the set key

[drowsy heath]

this looks complex as all hell is this worth it... god needs to shine light on me because i will die from this

[daring fern]

I have a much simpler function for this though.

[sleek cliff]

should I be able to change the object_type = "ObjectType"

[drowsy heath]

you do

[daring fern]

function SEALS.modify_joker_values(card, modifytbl, exclusions, ignoreimmutable, nodeckeffects)
    if not card or not modifytbl then return nil end
    if card.config.center.immutable and not ignoreimmutable then return nil end
    local cardwasindeck = card.added_to_deck
    if not nodeckeffects and cardwasindeck then card:remove_from_deck(true) end
    exclusions = exclusions or {}
    local ops = {"=", "+", "-", "*", "/", "%", "^"}
    local function modify_value(ref_table, ref_value, isdirectlyinability)
        if type(ref_table[ref_value]) == 'table' and (ignoreimmutable or ref_value ~= "immutable") then
            for k, v in pairs(ref_table[ref_value]) do
                modify_value(ref_table[ref_value], k, false)
            end
        elseif type(ref_table[ref_value]) == 'number' and ((not (exclusions[ref_value] == true or exclusions[ref_value] == ref_table[ref_value])) or not isdirectlyinability) then
            for i, v in ipairs(ops) do
                if modifytbl[v] then
                    ref_table[ref_value] = SEALS.perform_operations(ref_table[ref_value], v, modifytbl[v])
                end
            end
        end
    end
    for k, v in pairs(card.ability) do
        modify_value(card.ability, k, true)
    end
    if not nodeckeffects and cardwasindeck then card:add_to_deck(true) end
end

[drowsy heath]

where do i add the config in which it changes

the ref table

and ref value is the value im multiplying by im guessing

[daring fern]

In your case it would be modify_joker_values(card, {["*"] = 2}, {x_mult = 1, x_chips = 1})

[drowsy heath]

i dont understand any of this and vs code is saying everything about this is wrong what is going on

[daring fern]

Code?

Did you put it outside of the joker?

[drowsy heath]

wait i need it outside

mb

okay i put it outside and change u said after and now its still crying at me

[daring fern]

What is it saying?

[frigid cargo]

bump

[drowsy heath]

everything

feel like ive just been given a newborn that cries all the time

[daring fern]

No, I meant that when you call the function you would do modify_joker_values(card, {["*"] = 2}, {x_mult = 1, x_chips = 1})

[drowsy heath]

oh

[sleek cliff]

yellow is usually just an undefined global but still works (in my experience), red is what needs attention

[daring fern]

You need to keep everything the same except remove the SEALS

[drowsy heath]

ok

the line SEALS.perform_operations(ref_table[ref_value], v, modifytbl[v]) when seals is removed it shows yellow under

undefined global

[daring fern]

local function perform_operations(val1, op, val2)
    if op == "=" then return val2 end
    if op == "+" then return val1 + val2 end
    if op == "-" then return val1 - val2 end
    if op == "*" then return val1 * val2 end
    if op == "/" then return val1 / val2 end
    if op == "%" then return val1 % val2 end
    if op == "^" then return val1 ^ val2 end
end

local function modify_joker_values(card, modifytbl, exclusions, ignoreimmutable, nodeckeffects)
    if not card or not modifytbl then return nil end
    if card.config.center.immutable and not ignoreimmutable then return nil end
    local cardwasindeck = card.added_to_deck
    if not nodeckeffects and cardwasindeck then card:remove_from_deck(true) end
    exclusions = exclusions or {}
    local ops = {"=", "+", "-", "*", "/", "%", "^"}
    local function modify_value(ref_table, ref_value, isdirectlyinability)
        if type(ref_table[ref_value]) == 'table' and (ignoreimmutable or ref_value ~= "immutable") then
            for k, v in pairs(ref_table[ref_value]) do
                modify_value(ref_table[ref_value], k, false)
            end
        elseif type(ref_table[ref_value]) == 'number' and ((not (exclusions[ref_value] == true or exclusions[ref_value] == ref_table[ref_value])) or not isdirectlyinability) then
            for i, v in ipairs(ops) do
                if modifytbl[v] then
                    ref_table[ref_value] = perform_operations(ref_table[ref_value], v, modifytbl[v])
                end
            end
        end
    end
    for k, v in pairs(card.ability) do
        modify_value(card.ability, k, true)
    end
    if not nodeckeffects and cardwasindeck then card:add_to_deck(true) end
end
```?

Replace everything with that.

[drowsy heath]

it has been tamed

[sleek cliff]

able to help me with this?

[drowsy heath]

i still have a problem with my context being nil on the joker itself

im just using the line if context.other_card.config.rarity == 'mm_cyber' then and it isnt working

[daring fern]

Code?

[drowsy heath]

its mainly just unfinished but its saying the context is nil i havnt been able to play with the actual return or anything

or do i need to define that this joker is not involved

wait no im already doing that nvm

should i do it for the start of a round

[daring fern]

Yes, it would be calculate = function(self, card, context)

[drowsy heath]

oh woops

it normally autofills right

dk why it di that

other card has a nil value

eh but it doesnt

[daring fern]

Yes, context.other_card doesn't always exist.

[drowsy heath]

does it not here

it also is only crashing when i add another card to my hand

well joker

so am i not giving it the context

and then for some reason after it tells me that the context it nil

[frigid cargo]

bepis said i could just set a boolean and put the if before the for but i def didnt do it right

[subtle merlin]

what are you animating it by

[frigid cargo]

by the conditions?

oh by the y on the spritesheet

[subtle merlin]

im too tired to read through your code, what events do you want it to animate by? You said "we're playing different animations based on different conditions"

[drowsy heath]

if i wanna check context.other_card but that doesnt exist what should else i put to not cause a nil crash

[subtle merlin]

only a few contexts have context.other_card

[frigid cargo]

so the main problem is not being able to change the y because the for loop locks it.
in the joker code i change the soul sprite to x = 0 and y = 7 but because of the for loop it locks me from changing it.

[drowsy heath]

im using config.rarity but no matter what i do i always crash when adding another joker

even one with a matching rarity

[frigid cargo]

bepis said to "set something in card.ability to tell the update code which y it is at, and animate accordingly" but my idea also works too but i cant figure out how to do either 😭

[drowsy heath]

this is my last project of the night i js need the pain to be over 🤣

[subtle merlin]

That'd be because it doesn't exist

[sleek cliff]

real

[drowsy heath]

i mean the way im using it , it does

[sleek cliff]

I've put off this mod project for a while because of this stupid Spectral

[drowsy heath]

if context.other_card.config.rarity == 'mm_cyber' then

[subtle merlin]

you aren't getting my question: what are the events that you want the card to animate for

[subtle merlin]

again: that doesn't exist.

[drowsy heath]

its fine for me tho

and i am seeing ur using vs code like i am

so whats different and why is mine fine

[subtle merlin]

the red line was unrelated look at the big box above it

[drowsy heath]

its because u havent defined a rarity thats why its red

idk then but it has worked before

[subtle merlin]

i feel bad for the people that live here

[drowsy heath]

i used it in a different mod to retrigger specific raritys

hold on let me just whack up a retrigger joker with it and check if im going insane

[sleek cliff]

I live in a wonderful society...

[subtle merlin]

also, you're using other_card which is not the same as other_joker

one is for playing cards

one is for jokers

[drowsy heath]

maybe thats why im cooked

other joker is what i should be using

[subtle merlin]

nvm that didnt work either

[drowsy heath]

i mean still worth trying with my joker ig

no it wasnt

how else can i check the rarity of jokers

[frigid cargo]

so theres 7 animations, anim 1 is booting up so anim 3 4 6 7 will all resort to it after its animation is finished, once anim 1 is finished it resorts to just 1 sigular sprite.
anim 3 4 will be activated after a certain amount of time
anim 2 will be activated cause i change y to their y anim on the sprite sheet but they will go to whatever i change a variable to
anim 5 will be activated cause i change y to their y anim on the sprite sheet but wont stop doing the anim till the round is over
anim 6 7 will be also be activated cause i change y to their y anim on the sprite sheet but they go to anim 1 directly
5.) activated for current score being less than half the blind score and have only one hand
6.) activated for not having an ace in the played hand
7.) activated for having an ace in the played hand
-# (srry theres alot)

[subtle merlin]

that is... very complex

[frigid cargo]

indeed

[subtle merlin]

a lot of for loops and a lot of if statements

[frigid cargo]

real

im just tryna figure out how to change y and the anim changes to that one

i can do the rest
-# (probably not but eh)

[sleek cliff]

good luck with that, you'll need it

[frigid cargo]

😭

[sleek cliff]

now is there anyone able to help me with this?

[subtle merlin]

im going to do a lot of testing, if somethingcom comes back then ignore me and take their advice but if not ill update you and @drowsy heath

[drowsy heath]

thank you

[frigid cargo]

thank you

[frigid cargo]

also i dont think somethingcom knows about my problem

[subtle merlin]

this exists

[frigid cargo]

ill try putting in joker code

[subtle merlin]

Just use that when you want to change it's y

[frigid cargo]

i think it works now thanks so much, now to just figure out how to NOT make is do the animation for like half a second. Any idea as to why this happens?
-# sorry for asking so much

[subtle merlin]

...
Ever hear of game event manager?

[frigid cargo]

fun fact:

[subtle merlin]

i apologize but i can't find anything, you'll need to wait for someone smarter than me to come along (which happens a lot in this channel)

[subtle merlin]

fun fact: https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Guide-‐-Event-Manager

[frigid cargo]

maybe N can help
-# if he was here

[frigid cargo]

fun fact: thanks!

[subtle merlin]

N needs to sleep, too

[frigid cargo]

yes

[drowsy heath]

thats ok ill just head to bed now anyway its just reached 10 to 8 in the morning and i dont feel like working on it rn ive lost hope on ts

[subtle merlin]

ask when you wake up, there should be someone smarter avalible to help

[drowsy heath]

probably will do

actually shi i cant go to sleep

i have to meet with people in a couple hours

i have made a mistake well im off anyway

[frigid cargo]

thank you my goat creature

[subtle merlin]

@drowsy heath update:

[drowsy heath]

How does printing help tho

[sleek cliff]

it tells you if the rarity is working

[drowsy heath]

Idk how that works or how it checks for that specific rarity

Ik it's working tho bcoz it shows seperate in the game with the cyber title

[subtle merlin]

this should work on context.other_joker (testing now) but context.other_joker only exists in context.other_joker (i dont get why that is either)

[sleek cliff]

it tells the rarity of that joker when its played (as long as you have debugplus)

[drowsy heath]

Ofc

[subtle merlin]

...

[drowsy heath]

Debug plus my goat when it comes to modding

And testing

[subtle merlin]

i used the print to see if config.center.rarity exists...

[sleek cliff]

oh

[drowsy heath]

And I'm guessing not

It just dies

Bleh

[subtle merlin]

did i or did i not just say it printed properly.

[drowsy heath]

Oh

I didn't read it properly

[subtle merlin]

this exists and is probably what you're looking for, it can only be used in context.other_joker

im leaving before i lose it, im sorry i was unable to help you @sleek cliff

[sleek cliff]

I think I'll wait til more people are on tmr to ask for help since theres not a lot of people on rn (at least thats what I see)

[drowsy heath]

Wait but how do I define the rarity

[sleek cliff]

ur fine lol

[drowsy heath]

This just says rarity not defining which one

I'll figure it out

[subtle merlin]

-# must i spell it out for you with blocks
Give me a minute

[drowsy heath]

I took a 2 month break from coding and came back yesterday I forgot a few things

Been busy so I feel like I'm back at square one

[candid elbow]

It all starts with E4

[subtle merlin]

I'm sorry for taking out some anger on you there, it was misdirected and i shouldn't have. You don't need to define config.center.rarity as it already exists, its what you put in the rarity part of a joker (see image 2). Image 1 is what you're looking for if i understood everything correctly

[drowsy heath]

Thanks I'll put it to use now and honestly I'm fine with people taking it out on me we all know how infuriating this can get

[frigid cargo]

real

[subtle merlin]

Yes but I shouldn't have taken it out on you, so the right thing is to apologize

[drowsy heath]

also it says context has a nil value so im just gunna try find something to fix it later coz its rlly starting to get on my nerves coz ik ts possible

[subtle merlin]

Are you in context.other_joker when using that if statement?

[drowsy heath]

yeah same way u wrote it

[subtle merlin]

No, I mean what context is that if statement in?

[drowsy heath]

i think my brain has melted from being awake too long but i should understand what u said yet i dont, ive managed to code over 34 jokers and still get lost when people say things and ive been up too long

[subtle merlin]

that if statement (that i showed earlier) needs to be in this if statement

also that's fair, tiredness affects us all

[drowsy heath]

still under the function yeah

[subtle merlin]

yes, but it needs to be in a context if statement, specifically the one in this image

example

[drowsy heath]

ahhh okok

it didnt crash when i added another joker but when i tried to play a hand and still the same error

hold on let me check something tho

its the second if statement which causes the crash of nil

im officially lost again, well ill leave you to your freedom ill try have a proper crack at this for a few minutes before i get annoyed

[subtle merlin]

idk why it wouldn't, i have checked multiple times and every time it's worked for me

[frigid cargo]

elseif Flopprobj and btct_Floppr_dt > 0.1 and Flopprobj.soul_pos.y == 7 then
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            trigger = "immediate", 
            delay = 0.1, 
            func = function() 
                btct_Floppr_dt = btct_Floppr_dt - 0.1
                if Flopprobj.soul_pos.x > 16 then 
                    Flopprobj.soul_pos.x = 0 
                    Flopprobj.soul_pos.y = 1 
                else
                    Flopprobj.soul_pos.x = Flopprobj.soul_pos.x + 1
                end
                return true 
            end
        }))
    end

so uh... my stupidity led me to this. It works! problem is it doesnt stop the elseif (i think) soooo... this event just keeps happening and since it puts it to a different sprite, its just going through the wrong sprites again and again after the proper animation works.
(actually right now its wierd, it goes to doing smth wierd then i replenish cards then it goes to normal...?)

[subtle merlin]

wait now im being dumb

[frigid cargo]

i saw that but i couldnt reply cause i was editing the thing

[subtle merlin]

-# oh thank fuck someone smart is here

hai dilly!
(i saw u typing)

[frigid cargo]

hi dilly

i think i might just do smth else than code 😭 animating is pain

[drowsy heath]

i got it to work in the end, i was tired and anywhere i was supposed to put a word beggining in c i put context

beginning

idk what the right spelling is rn

but its not multiplying itself and idk why

so ima just quickly fix that

[frigid cargo]

this is the right spelling

i think

[drowsy heath]

at least im not the only one doubting myself

[bold sleet]

Hello. Does anyone that knows UI wizardy know how to get this card area element thing?

[subtle merlin]

the day i learn ui is the day i...
idk what day it'd be, but good luck with it!

[frigid cargo]

The day i learn ui will happen after i die

[drowsy heath]

the day you realise ur dreaming

[buoyant thorn]

hi
does anyone know how to check what the first card drawn to hand is gonna be for any given seed before the first blind is started?
i tried checking misprint and its code but it just showed me the default 11c in game so i dunno

[drowsy heath]

i tried to do that once

i gave up

[crisp coral]

the deck is shuffled when round starts

[drowsy heath]

Yep

That's why I cut my losses

Well I tried just always viewing the next card drawn and failed that too but that's bcoz I'm stupid

[fossil nebula]

how would i make a timer in boss blind?

[placid star]

you need to check G.deck.cards[#G.deck.cards]

the deck draws in reverse order

[rotund sable]

Don't forget to check if G.deck exists

[placid star]

i always forget to check if my cardareas exist before doing arithmetic on them ngl

[slim ferry]

does SMODS.add_card/create_card support an options field like poll_enhancement and poll_seal do

[placid star]

you can assign those functions to a local var before hand then do edition = edition

[slim ferry]

why edition?

[placid star]

idk that's just what I call my variables, for example when I do main ends I just call them local main end =

you can call it whatever you like tho ^^

in fact you don't even have to assign them to local variables you can call poll eiditon in the add_card

[slim ferry]

?

i never said anything about an edition?

[placid star]

ohhh

my apologies

[daring fern]

No.

[slim ferry]

is there an equivalent for it in those functions

[placid star]

i don't think there's poll enhancement or seal functions unless you create them

[slim ferry]

there are

[bold sleet]

bump idk help

[slim ferry]

SMODS.poll_enhancement/seal

they exist

[placid star]

qhat isn't working?

im assuming you want to put cards in it

when I did that I created and assigned the card area out of the nodes with local ca = CardArea... then used ca:emplace()

[red flower]

no, you need to make an ObjectType

(a list with pseudorandom_element works too of course)

[bold sleet]

You declare the card area elsewhere and them add the card area to the node or..?

[placid star]

the only example I have of it is in a main end where i declared it above my local main_end = if that makes sense

[modern kindle]

Crazy thing, I was sleeping
I woke up and saw my phone was still unlocked lmao

[modern kindle]

Also delayed hello to you also

[bold sleet]

ok, i got the target the card area thing to work. Now uh... am I doing this right?

The card area does say that a card is being added, but there is like, no card.

where tf is my card

[primal robin]

Position 20 20 is very out of screen

[bold sleet]

I tried 0 0

I do not know how those values work for creating cards

And 3 3

Nothin'

[red flower]

what's the cardarea code

[slim ferry]

are the pools in G.P_CENTER_POOLS just lists of keys?

[red flower]

you need to hook more functions for a type to work correctly

[bold sleet]

ah

[primal robin]

you missed return in can_highlight btw

[red flower]

they're lists of centers

[primal robin]

Also will be better to totally override functions for specific card area rather add even more type checks

[bold sleet]

?

I have like -15 experience in function hooking.

[primal robin]

You have card area instance, instead hook them, write own ones

[bold sleet]

How would I get my card area to do that huh what?

[slim ferry]

are they indexed by keys like in P_CENTERS or do i need to grab the config.center.key of a center in the pool to get the key?

[red flower]

the second option but it's just .key because it's already the center

[onyx sonnet]

is there a consumable equivalent for context.joker_main?

[daring fern]

No, because it's still context.joker_main

[onyx sonnet]

thanks

[willow scroll]

i dont think I get drawstep order, or my method of applying an overlay is fucked? I have a drawstep that draws a transparent overlay sprite over the base card, but ive tried every order, and seals still get drawn under the overlay, when i want seals to go over them

seals have drawstep order 30, right? well seals look like this with order 29 and 31

self.children.sand_overlay = Sprite(self.T.x, self.T.y, self.T.w, self.T.h,
                G.ASSET_ATLAS['maxboism_CustomEnhancements'], { x = 0, y = 0 })
            [...]
self.children.sand_overlay:set_role({ major = self, role_type = 'Glued', draw_major = self })

this is my method for applying the overlay sprite

the [...] is the standard hover/click/drag/can collide stuff

[cursive gazelle]

i’m not sure i thought the order was 80 or something for seals

[willow scroll]

then smods source code is lying to me

lemme check

[cursive gazelle]

https://github.com/nassymdev/flipside/blob/b18443c45ecedd1fedd89742f24679b25232f354/src/drawsteps.lua#L31

this is how i do it for shader + png

But on the back of the card

i remember it drawing under the seal when i had 80 order

or something idk

[willow scroll]

i just tried 81 and 79 and its still the same

its def the way i render the overlay sprite

or its a case where alt + f5 doesnt reload everything properly

one moment

ok no its not that

[manic rune]

ret is something like

mult = 5,
attack_type = {"attack"}

what it does is its supposed to convert a certain percentage of mult into chips, but for some reason its being triggered twice, so if the percentage in question is 25%, its actually giving 5 chips instead

help

[candid elbow]

Hehe sis is typing

[manic rune]

i checked and its not running the function twice

its something with the logic here and i cant figure it out

[cursive gazelle]

twice ?

[manic rune]

yeah, i assumed its, doubling the percentage because its running the function twice, but its not

but also, when im running the function outside the joker it works, so idk??

[modern kindle]

hi bepis

[manic rune]

hi dilly

[red flower]

effect_type = {"attack"}, right?

[modern kindle]

N ♥

[red flower]

hi dilly and wepis

[cursive gazelle]

do i not get a shatout

[manic rune]

a yea, effect_type

[red flower]

hi s

[manic rune]

what Stacked.ismult, Stacked.ischips does is just, checking the index to see if its mult, mult_mod, chips, chips_mod, etc etc

the ischips check is just in case theres chips_mod so i can change the message

[cursive gazelle]

Rewrite the whole thing with c#

should fix it

[red flower]

is it maybe because youre adding stuff to the table in the middle of an iteration

it might work depending on the order pairs goes through it

[candid elbow]

Umm actuwally you can’t because balatro uses the framework smods which is made by lua 🤓

[manic rune]

LOOK

BUT IN GAME ITS FUCKING 5, IDK WHY 😭

[cursive gazelle]

kee observation , solution ? Just make balatro with c# and include modding support without lovely

[candid elbow]

Kee

[manic rune]

i ran the code inside debugplus' console too, so idfk

[red flower]

i think it might have to do with what i said

[manic rune]

mm

[red flower]

if it inserts chips before mult it might be running mult again

[manic rune]

uh

the problem seems to be that its seeing effect_type twice somehow

i think ur onto something, maybe i should add the stuff after the for loop?

probably something like this

OH MY GOD IT FINALLY WORKS

thanks N' 3:

[modern kindle]

if im increasing values in a cards ability or ability extra is there a way i can see what value is applied to the denominator argument for the probability vars? im trying to catch cases where odds are in extra in order to not modify those

like for example if i have

SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, 1, card.ability.extra.eternal_odds, 'eternifier_eternal')

instead of

SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, 1, 2, 'eternifier_eternal')

does context.denominator still pull the ability in this case?

why does this crash when the ui element is loaded

[ivory widget]

(unsure if this is the right place to ask)
would it be more readable/understandable to have the base mult in the parentheses, or the temporary mult?

[jolly shadow]

I feel like itd be easier to understand if you color-coded the temporary mult

and maybe have it like +(20 + 29) Mult

the +s and the () would be red, along with the permanent mult, and maybe have the temporary mult just be orange?

🤔

I'm having an issue with running Balatro under Linux
Specifically; when using a Linux version of Love2D, using the latest Github engine version, with a patch to change save directory to /home/reabs/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/2379780/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/Balatro (To match what Windows does)

The issue is that it isn't loading saves

Or settings

[ivory widget]

think i'll need to learn custom colors bc Diamonds aren't cutting it
like this for the formatting, though?

The plus on the inside should also be red I think

just do what you want

if you have a lot of disorganized ideas id recommend kitchen sink

I'm just undecided right now, i was originally on kitchen sink.
But talking with my girlfriend have made me question if i should steer it back into being more animal themed (and in parts focused around a new poker hand)

[knotty orchid]

how do I know if a hand is exactly a pair for example

is there any context for that?

[red flower]

context.scoring_name*

(you need to pair it with a context that has it)

[knotty orchid]

mmm

i don't really understand

[red flower]

what part

[sturdy compass]

Wouldn’t you check scoring_name?

[red flower]

yes

oops

[knotty orchid]

this is what I was doing

but

for some reason it also triggers with three of a kinds

if context.destroying_card and not context.blueprint then
            if context.scoring_name == "Pair"
                and context.scoring_hand[1]:get_id() == 2
                and not context._wildtag_triggered then
                context._wildtag_triggered = true
                card.ability.extra.triggered = true
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({

                        play_sound('generic1', 0.9 + math.random() * 0.1, 0.8)
                        play_sound('holo1', 1.2 + math.random() * 0.1, 0.4)
                        return true
                    end)
                }))
            end
            return true```

[lusty glade]

well, looking at the Vanilla remade mod, it doesn't seem like they added any loc_txt so I am a bit confused

[red flower]

it's in the localization file in localization/en-us.lua

[lusty glade]

oooh I see imma look in there then

thank you!

[red flower]

whats the goal

[knotty orchid]

to destroy both cards if 2 2s are played

[red flower]

and give one tag?

try this

if context.joker_main and context.scoring_name == "Pair" and context.scoring_hand[1]:get_id() == 2 then
    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
        func = (function()
            add_tag(Tag('tag_ina_wild_tag'))
            play_sound('generic1', 0.9 + math.random() * 0.1, 0.8)
            play_sound('holo1', 1.2 + math.random() * 0.1, 0.4)
            return true
        end)
    }))
end
if context.destroying_card and not context.blueprint then
    if context.scoring_name == "Pair" and context.scoring_hand[1]:get_id() == 2 then
        return { remove = true }
    end
end

[knotty orchid]

it actually worked just by changing the order of the if

for this, why doesn't this work

i think I got it form vanilla remade

                text = {
                    'Balances {C:attention}#1#%{} of chips and mult'
                },
            }
        }

why is the label not showing up? (sepia is a placeholder until I learn how to shader)

the name and description show up fine

[surreal knot]

You need to write the labels in the different one

misc = {labels = {

[knotty orchid]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.scoring_hand and context.cardarea == G.play
        and context.other_card == context.scoring_hand[#context.scoring_hand] then
      return {
        chips = context.other_card:get_chip_bonus() * 2,
        card = context.other_card
      }
    end
  end,```
why does this logs a warning about repetition tables?

[willow scroll]

ah, thank you

[surreal knot]

Not in discriptions also

[subtle merlin]

does anyone here have experience writing new pages in galdur?

[willow scroll]

i got it to work

[lusty glade]

so if I understand correctly, #"number"# will show up the number of the designated returned variable in order?

so like #1# will show the first variable?

[rocky plaza]

correct
so if u return {vars = {1,2,3}}
then in loc files
#1# will get 1

[red flower]

yes

[lusty glade]

oooh alr

[red flower]

larswijn?

[lusty glade]

and i;m guessing that if it's not a number it will give 'nil' :0

[rocky plaza]

return {vars = {"Hello", "Hearts"}}
works as well
#1# would get "Hello"

[lusty glade]

nice alr alr

big thx!

[rocky plaza]

so basically if you access #3# in loc files but ur return {vars = {...}} only has 2 things then #3# will be nil

    return {rank = highest_played_val, id = highest_played_id}
    
end

could somebody assist me in debugging this function? it just does not return the right thing

[surreal knot]

There's ways to return not only numbers

[lusty glade]

so if I get nil its either that its not detecting the variable or its not there?

[red flower]

what does it do

[midnight coyote]

gets the highest played rank in the deck

but it just completely does not work

[midnight coyote]

this is what it does

[rocky plaza]

yeah
or the variable itself is nil

[subtle merlin]

oh, maybe, going to be interesting to use cardsleeves as a base as it's far from what i want to do but its a start

[rocky plaza]

return {vars = {"not_nil", nil, "not_nil"}} works
and #2# will indeed be nil
so yeah either its not there or the value itself is nil

[frigid cargo]

Bump

[lusty glade]

kk i'll try to work with that then

because my current code is giving me nil but then its maybe just a typo error lol

[rocky plaza]

hmm can i see your code then?
might be a quick fix

[long sun]

need a wee bit of help

i'd like to change a card's suit, but keep what it used to be in a variable attached to it

how can i do that? (specifically, obtaining its suit)

[lusty glade]

(don't mind my SMODS.poll_seal not being finished making everything yellow lmao-)

[midnight coyote]

if thats it istg

okay

this is false

i played 2 sevens prior to running this

[red flower]

should probably have made the arrow the other way around

[rocky plaza]

its loc_vars not loc_var

[lusty glade]

god dammit ;w;

ty lol

[midnight coyote]

oh wait

its this fucking line

[red flower]

oh its the same error lol

[midnight coyote]

gah

it still does the same thing

wait what

it just randomly switched to 2s

the id is the same

??

[lusty glade]

lmao it works now ty

[red flower]

try

oops

[red flower]

cards_played_bleh[cards[k].base.value] = (cards[k].base.times_played > 0 and cards_played_bleh[cards[k].base.value] + cards[k].base.times_played) or cards_played_bleh[cards[k].base.value]

[midnight coyote]

oh wait

i got it

[wind steppe]

how would i render an image in a uibox?

[midnight coyote]

im not updating highest_played_num

[red flower]

oh yeah

[red flower]

i think this will also be an issue tho

[midnight coyote]

alright

should i do something similar for the ID check or should that stay as is

[red flower]

yes

[wind steppe]

how do i use this to render a sprite in a uibox

[red flower]

object = Sprite(x,y,w,h,...)

like this

[sonic quail]

hey, could i perhaps ask for a little help? i have made a joker like blueprint but i cant find the thing that blueprint has with it showing "compatible" and "incompatible" and i cant really figure out how to get it to work.

[red flower]

[midnight coyote]

okay new problem

so now the ID is constantly 1

the rank updates just fine now

but the ID is always 1

which is it's inital value

nvm found a fix

Why does this logs a warning about retriggers? And my retrigger jokers crash with this

[midnight coyote]

is joker retriggering enabled?

SMODS.current_mod.optional_features.retrigger_joker must be true

[knotty orchid]

yes

[midnight coyote]

hmm okay

[knotty orchid]

other jokers work perfectly

[midnight coyote]

oh wait this isnt even relevant nvm

[knotty orchid]

but this one logs a warning

and crashes

[red flower]

you need a stricter context check

[knotty orchid]

mmm

[frigid cargo]

Bump

[knotty orchid]

how does that work

[red flower]

you know the calculate docs?

you should have one of the contexts that are at the top of each code box

like context.individual in this case

i will make a vremade wiki entry about this

[knotty orchid]

okay

thanks mate

[willow scroll]

is there a function to get the poker hand of a given a list of cards? something like SMODS.evaluate but without the hand part?

[frigid cargo]

elseif Flopprobj and btct_Floppr_dt > 0.1 and Flopprobj.soul_pos.y == 7 then
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            trigger = "immediate", 
            delay = 0.1, 
            func = function() 
                btct_Floppr_dt = btct_Floppr_dt - 0.1
                if Flopprobj.soul_pos.x > 16 then 
                    Flopprobj.soul_pos.x = 0 
                    Flopprobj.soul_pos.y = 1 
                else
                    Flopprobj.soul_pos.x = Flopprobj.soul_pos.x + 1
                end
                return true 
            end
        }))
    end

so uh... my stupidity led me to this. It works! problem is it doesnt stop the elseif (i think) soooo... this event just keeps happening and since it puts it to a different sprite, its just going through the wrong sprites again and again after the proper animation works.
(actually right now its wierd, it goes to doing smth wierd then i replenish cards then it goes to normal...?)

Did i do the event manager wrong or smth?

[red flower]

G.FUNCS.get_poker_hand_info

[frigid cargo]

N’ have you tried putting an event on an animation before?

[red flower]

i dont do animations

i barely do return messages

[frigid cargo]

Dang

[red flower]

i am working on one now tho but i still dont know much

[frigid cargo]

I think the main problem on mine is the event changes the sprite after the animation which is what i want, but it continues to change it after like 5 seconds it stops on 1 of 3 options…

[lusty glade]

in the vanilla remade mod, I am searching for the type_key of the Certificate joker named "vremade_certificate_seal" but I can;t seem to find it using ctrl_F (outside of the jokers folder I mean)

anyone knows where I could find it?

[red flower]

what do you mean

oh that's a seed for the seal randomization

[lusty glade]

yeee

[wind steppe]

if G.gacha_button then
  G.gacha_button:remove()
  G.gacha_button = nil
end
if G.gacha_machine then
  G.gacha_machine:remove()
  G.gacha_machine = nil
end
``` why doesn't this remove the ui elements G.gacha_button and G.gacha_machine?

[lusty glade]

wait so that's the seed it ain't referencing anything? ;-;

[red flower]

no it's an optional unique string to be used as a seed for the seal

[wind steppe]

yup

it doesn't reference anything beyond the seal randomization

[red flower]

well and in_pool but yeah

[lusty glade]

Oooh alr so I don’t see to use it?

[red flower]

no

[lusty glade]

trully epic then

[pure salmon]

trying to make a deck that doesn't spawn commons. bunco has a patch for this but is there an easier way to do this nowadays?

[wind steppe]

take ownership of common and use

[red flower]

G.GAME.common_mod = 0?
maybe i don't remember if that was multiplicative or not

[midnight coyote]

how do i get the end of round bonus

[wind steppe]

bump

[midnight coyote]

for money

[pure salmon]

i've never needed to take ownship or work with pools how do i do any of that

vanilla seems to do it on the fly

[knotty orchid]

calculate = function(self, blind, context)

                end
            end
        end
    end```
Why is this crashing at this line:   if G.GAME.hands[context.scoring_name].level > 1 then?

[willow scroll]

i might be stupid what from the returned is the poker hand

[red flower]

i dont have the code with me rn but it returns multiple values

search for it in the vanilla code

[wind steppe]

if G.gacha_button then
  G.gacha_button:remove()
  G.gacha_button = nil
end
if G.gacha_machine then
  G.gacha_machine:remove()
  G.gacha_machine = nil
end

chat why wont these ui elements get removed

[wind steppe]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/API-Documentation#taking-ownership

[knotty orchid]

how do I access the level of played hand?

[pure salmon]

ok i did it but now it won't change back to normal behaviour when i switch decks

[red flower]

like in your code

[knotty orchid]

so why does it crash?

[red flower]

take_ownership is universal so you need to make the function account for normal decks and your deck

also don't do it in apply it's bad practice to take_ownweship during a game

[red flower]

what's the crash

[red flower]

oh uninstall talisman

and never install it again

[knotty orchid]

wha

JAAJJAA

[long sun]

i have an override for Card:is_suit() that will never return the suit phanta_unknown, however, for displaying the deck, i need this to return that value, so that the cards won't be placed in the row corresponding to their actual suit

[knotty orchid]

I need it for some pows**

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#why-do-i-get-attempt-to-compare-number-with-table-when-talisman-is-installed

[long sun]

what do i need to patch to fix this?

[pure salmon]

can i not just hook or something instead of taking ownership

[red flower]

you can use take ownership as a hook

[pure salmon]

okay how

the api documentation page says basically nothing

[red flower]

you would save the original get_weight in a reference variable

like local ref = SMODS.Rarities["Common"].get_weight

dunno if it has one by default tho

[modern kindle]

I awaken from my slumber

why doesnt this patch do anything

it wont remove any uiboxes

                            level_up = -to_big(G.GAME.hands[context.scoring_name].level) + to_big(1)
                        }
                    end```
Why does this levels up by 1 the hand instead of decreasing it to 1?

[red flower]

try removing the to_big there

it's only for comparisons

[knotty orchid]

I did

same thing

[red flower]

hmm

[pure salmon]

uh oh i think this is not the way to do this

[red flower]

it has to be outside the function lol

before take_ownership

[knotty orchid]

maybe the level_up can only go by 1?

[rotund sable]

i think its the bug where you return a big_num

[knotty orchid]

I tried without to_big

and it didn't work either

[rotund sable]

G.GAME.hands[...].level is a bignum with talisman

big_num + int = bignum

my workaround for it is wrapping every big_num i return in lenient_bignum()

[wintry solar]

can you show the full function?

[knotty orchid]

calculate = function(self, blind, context)
        if not blind.disabled then
            if context.debuff_hand then
                blind.triggered = false
                if G.GAME.hands[context.scoring_name].level > to_big(1) then
                    blind.triggered = true
                    if not context.check then
                        local level_down = -G.GAME.hands[context.scoring_name].level + 1
                        return {
                            level_up = level_down
                        }
                    end
                end
            end
        end
    end```

so with the lenient_bignum i should do lenient_bignum(level_down)

?

[rotund sable]

what in the nesting

[knotty orchid]

I got it from vanilla remade

HAHAHA

[rotund sable]

if my memory isn't lacking yes

i hate talisman so much

[knotty orchid]

I'm starting to

[rotund sable]

9 commits just for talisman fixes so far ( in "my" "side" project)

[red flower]

no

[red flower]

it can go up more at least, and im sure it can go negative too

[wintry solar]

it can

does doing -bigNum just not work or something?

[red flower]

oh wow this got sent super late

[rotund sable]

recently had a crash with talisman where it was returning the big_num

[red flower]

yeah i think it got fixed now?

[rotund sable]

fixed it by wrapping it in the function i mentioned so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[rotund sable]

oh my god i bet im outdated as fuck

[red flower]

not sure tho i dont test with talisman

[rotund sable]

how old is this

[wintry solar]

old enough to be jank af

[rotund sable]

~month

[wintry solar]

-# they're all jank af shhhh

[rotund sable]

the wizard said so

in my experience users don't update talisman ever

[solar eagle]

question, why would the soul egg thingy still be displaying on this - i've take_ownership the soul spectral and overwritten the atlas, pos, and soul_pos

(also how do I get it to dance like that)

[rapid stag]

because the soul uses a thing called G.shared_soul which is basically the floating sprite... but it's a global variable.

your solution here is not to set the soul_pos in the soul and instead overwrite G.shared_soul with your soul sprite

and/or make a malverk texture pack instead which does all of this and in a way that's more compatible with other mods

[solar eagle]

interesting

why did localthunk do this 😭

[tropic carbon]

well do you specifically want the delta rune to shake like the Soul does or do you just want the floating sprite like a Legendary Joker

oh no wait i'm. i might be stupid

[solar eagle]

if floating sprite i could just G.shared_soul = nil i believe

unfortunately that is not my goal

[tropic carbon]

wack

[wintry solar]

there is a lot of hardcoded stuff that has been made easily modable by different apis

is there a reason you're hard coding texture replacements?

[tropic carbon]

when concepting modded cards/items, do i just have to care about the name and its effect?

like is there some bullshit i'm forgetting that i should list

not counting category-specific things like joker rarity

[red flower]

price?

[tropic carbon]

that is true

i just thought to check the official wiki page for a random card and look at it that way

[solar eagle]

cause i'm also adjusting other features of the cards, and it's not too difficult to just tack on atlas = whatever, pos = { x = 1, y = 2 }

[heavy frigate]

How do i check how many challenges have been completed?
I thought i found it with G.PROFILES[G.SETTINGS.profile].challenges.tally but just got nil

[tropic carbon]

so it'd be name, effect, rarity (if joker), unlock req, buy price (i assume sell price is pre-calculated rather than having to be coded in manually every time), and then compatibility with blueprint/brainstorm, perishable and eternal stickers

[solar eagle]

sell price is half the buy price

there's ways to manually set one, but you don't have to

[tropic carbon]

gotcha, thanks

now there shouldn't be anything i missed, right

[frigid cargo]

ok

[rapid stag]

is there a context or function on a joker that's called when the joker is initially created? for example, when it spawns into the shop or booster pack.

[solar eagle]

i think you could use set_sprites for its not intended purpose maybe?

[solar eagle]

or mayb set_ability

[red flower]

set_ability yeah

[rapid stag]

bump

[wintry solar]

how on earth can you soft lock and still have the event queue running, what does that even mean

[tropic carbon]

honestly if you want to force a run reset just manually game over

[frigid cargo]

[tropic carbon]

that is a thing right

like

when blind is won:
  if score // blindReq => 3:
    kill the run lmfao```

[frigid cargo]

"kill the run lmfao" so wise

[modern kindle]

i mean you can force gameover regardless but thats not what they want to do

[tropic carbon]

i try my hardest

[tropic carbon]

forcing a softlock doesn't. entirely sound like a good idea if i'm being honest :/

[modern kindle]

id assume you could just infinite loop event

[tropic carbon]

that is one way

[modern kindle]

yea i think its poor design to punisht he player for performing well

but people have had all sorts of concepts

[tropic carbon]

i mean sure if you want to punish the player for overkill then by all means but maybe don't softlock the run so you have to manually start a new one

[modern kindle]

i mean i dont personally feel like that changes much

its not hard to manually start a new run

i guess it's understandable if you expect to be able to still pause the game while it's "softlocked"

my concern comes from if you have to alt+f4 the game just to reopen it and keep playing

[modern kindle]

im pretty sure you can still restart through menu and through holding r
times where ive fucked up and the event queue was launching high i was able to

unless it was some wacky fluke

[tropic carbon]

oh cool

if you do that though you should probably tell the player you can still manually restart in this failstate

someone's gonna be stupid enough to think you can only alt+f4 out of it (me being a good example)

[modern kindle]

id assume the player would notice something has gone awry after nothing has happened for awhile
but you are right it should notify them
maybe once its triggered in the desc it can refresh and say that you need to restart your run

if to_base then
                Flopprobj.soul_pos.x = 0
                Flopprobj.soul_pos.y = 7 
                to_base = false
            end

can i still do this inside a function out of the joker even though to_base is set inside the joker code?

[red flower]

imo if the effect soflocks you should only be able to alt+f4 out of it

anything else and you're a coward

[modern kindle]

im gonna soft lock you buddy

[red flower]

u can hardlock me

[modern kindle]

😳

[red flower]

if to_base is a global, yes
but i dont recommend having globals with generic names

[modern kindle]

throw in your modprefix modprefix_to_base

[frigid cargo]

omg my fanfiction is being brought to life

[modern kindle]

or call it modprefix_what_the_fuck

[frigid cargo]

its in card.ability.extra... how do i access that?

[modern kindle]

something

lmao

[tropic carbon]

anyone got the hex codes for joker rarity? just google sheet housekeeping

[red flower]

then you would need access to that card

[tropic carbon]

nvm i remembered imagecolorpicker exists

[old epoch]

Common: 009dff
Uncommon: 4BC292
Rare: fe5f55
Legendary: b26cbb

that sould be it

[frigid cargo]

i have local Flopprobj = G.P_CENTERS.j_btct_Floppr so would i just do Flopprobj.ability.extra.to_base?

[heavy frigate]

Is card.ability only available after fully loading into a game?
Because i'm getting crashes trying to access it from the set_sprites function

[red flower]

card.ability exists after the card is created

[frigid cargo]

omg its flopprobj

[red flower]

the card object itself

You're gonna be kurakuobj here in a second
