I think this requires patches

[twilit tundra]

yeppp i think im gonna put that one off till later too

[cursive gazelle]

If you check four fingers the code is just an SMODS function

[twilit tundra]

the hard part in my head is keeping track of what cards you have and haven’t played

that part seems a lot harder than making it a straight flush

[cursive gazelle]

You can check it easily

For loop thro the hands played and if it’s played more than one time it’s been played before

[twilit tundra]

wait i can??

how 👀

[cursive gazelle]

And check for scoring cards table size

[twilit tundra]

through the cards played you mean?

[cursive gazelle]

If it’s 5 then it’s a 5 card hand that hasn’t been played before

[cursive gazelle]

Hands

[twilit tundra]

it checks for the cards played, not the hands played

its not

its like hiker

its checking for the individual card

[cursive gazelle]

Oh

Cards played

[red flower]

the cards store how many times they have been played iirc

so it's not very hard

[twilit tundra]

wait they already store that?

i thought it was just for the current ante for the pillar

[red flower]

im pretty sure

[cursive gazelle]

Local thunk is a genius

[twilit tundra]

or is the storage permanent

[cursive gazelle]

Local thunk knew all along

[red flower]

even if they dont it wouldn't be hard to implement

i think it's card.base.times_played

[split creek]

Trying to make a consumable that can only select a specific suit, what am I doing wrong?

        for key, value in pairs(G.hand.highlighted) do
            if value.suit ~= G.C.SUITS.Clubs then
                return false
            end
        end
        return #G.hand.highlighted <= 2
    end,```

[red flower]

value:is_suit("Clubs") or value.base.suit == "Clubs"

[warm umbra]

how do i set the amount of chips

while the hand is being calculated

[winter flower]

how do i make it so that a blind appears after defeating a specific blind

(i know in_pool exists but i cant for the life of me figure out why it wont spawn)

[frigid cargo]

Im tryna make an enhancement where if 3 of the same enhancement is played, then the played hand is upgraded, the problem is it upgrade the played hand per enhancement even though i only want it to activate once, how can i do this?

[warm umbra]

never mind figured it out

[rocky plaza]

so in context.before iterate over context.full_hand or context.scoring_hand (depending on intent) and keep a tally of all enhancements encountered in a table
then level up if an enhancement in the table has a tally count of 3 or more

[warm umbra]

never mind again

im using G.GAME.chips = 0

oh wait i think i know why

[urban wasp]

why does this crash upon the voucher appearing at all

...
    update = function(self, card, dt)
        for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do -- <- line 392
            local joker = G.jokers.cards[i]
            if joker.config and joker.config.center and joker.config.center.pools and joker.config.center.pools.Bulgoe then
                card.ability.extra.bulgoes = card.ability.extra.bulgoes + 1
            end
        end
    end,

                card.ability.extra.bulgoes = card.ability.extra.bulgoes + 1
            end
        end
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        G.GAME.current_round.free_rerolls = G.GAME.current_round.free_rerolls + (lenient_bignum(card.ability.extra.bulgoes) * lenient_bignum(card.ability.extra.bulgoes))
    end,
    crp_credits = {
        idea = { "Gudusername" },
        code = { "Rainstar" }
    }
}

[warm umbra]

the code

[gilded goblet]

Why did you shape it like that

[rocky plaza]

i think you need to do it with an event that sets G.GAME.chips to 0

[warm umbra]

oh ive never used events

[gilded goblet]

Try the global chips

[warm umbra]

freeform screenshots

[warm umbra]

so just

chips = 0

[gilded goblet]

Yeah exactly

Or maybe it's uhh

Hold on

[urban wasp]

hand_chips

[gilded goblet]

hand_chips yeah

Ty

[warm umbra]

alright

[gilded goblet]

Then mult is just mult

I think? I don't remember

[warm umbra]

i dont need to set mult but ty

[rocky plaza]

so this crashes in a run?

[urban wasp]

no in the collection

which is weird because it was working earlier

[rocky plaza]

you need to wrap the entire for loop in the update function inside of an if statement that checks if G.jokers exists

[urban wasp]

oh fair just like a nil check

[rocky plaza]

yeah

[warm umbra]

it works but how do i set the visual thingy on the side

this

[rocky plaza]

i think it was prob working earlier cuz u were in a run while viewing collection

[daring fern]

SMODS.Scoring_Parameters.chips:modify(-hand_chips)

[frigid cargo]

Yes, i have had that, the problem is the hand upgrading based on the amount of astral cards played (3 minimum) cause the upgrading doesnt activate unless theres 3 or more

[rocky plaza]

ooohhhhhh

hmm maybe have a flag to check if its the first astral card scored then do the upgrade

[split creek]

why is value.base.nominal returning a boolean value?

        for key, value in pairs(G.hand.highlighted) do
            if not value.base.nominal <= card.ability.extra.max_rank then
                return false
            end
        end```

[red flower]

because you're negating it

[split creek]

oh i did a lua oopsie

[near heart]

how can i get the rarity of a held joker?

[split creek]

one pair of parenthesis and lua is happy again

[red flower]

joker.config.center.rarity

[pastel kernel]

How does gateway destroy all jokers

[red flower]

idk but you can destroy all jokers by doing SMODS.destroy_cards(G.jokers.cards)

[pastel kernel]

Cryptid has a special gimmick where certain items can overflow even when the limit is reached. I wanna copy that effect but idk how.

[quick shore]

@digital valve this person pinged you 4 months ago

[pastel kernel]

This can be applied to a consumable?

[red flower]

yeah

[digital valve]

No it was in #🕹・game-discussion

[pastel kernel]

Will this also destroy the joker that the consumable spawns

[obtuse wraith]

Do any of your mods have this issue or is it just a smods glitch?

[cursive gazelle]

I mean clearly yeah

[cursive gazelle]

No

[obtuse wraith]

Report this issue if you don't mind.

[feral tree]

is it possible to have a joker destroy itself without making any noise?

[pastel kernel]

can_use = function(self, card)
        return G.jokers and #G.jokers.cards < G.jokers.config.card_limit
    end,

if i remove

and #G.jokers.cards < G.jokers.config.card_limit

can it still spawn the joker?

[cursive gazelle]

Yes

[charred widget]

Hey there! Just wanted a little tweak to this joker here. Rayquaza gains 0.1x mult for every stone card played. How can I show the current mult in the joker's description?

[cursive gazelle]

Return the value in loc_vars

And use #2# as an example to display it

Can i see a screenshot(i’m on phone )

[cursive gazelle]

This is so cooked

[charred widget]

it wAS MADE IN JOKERFORGE OK

[cursive gazelle]

I understand

Can you find the config and loc_vars ?

[charred widget]

i can find config but i don't see loc_vars

[cursive gazelle]

Make a loc_vars then and return said variables

You can find examples in any joker

In vanilla remade

[charred widget]

ok i'll take a look at that

[cursive gazelle]

Return variables by order
And place #1# in loc_txt do display first variable

#2# for second

And so on

Said variables are

Card.ability.extra.Something

In your config you can find all the (something )

[dreamy lodge]

Can jokers interact with a blinds chip requirement? If so how do

[cursive gazelle]

Yes

What do you want to do exactly

[charred widget]

omg i'm looking for that too!

[dreamy lodge]

divide the size of the blind by a number

like half it for example

[twilit tundra]

hey where are the smod docs i wanna see everything that context has as fields or functions

[cursive gazelle]

local current_score = G.GAME.chips
local current_requirements = G.GAME.blind.chips```

[cursive gazelle]

YOU NEED TO CHECK THAT YOU’RE IN A BLIND

or this will crash

local is_in_blind = G.GAME.blind.in_blind```

This is how to check

Ofc you want to change the direct variables not the local ones because that won’t do anything

[dreamy lodge]

And how does one do that

do you just replace local with direct

[pastel kernel]

This has a lot of your questions answered

Please read it

[dreamy lodge]

what part

[cursive gazelle]

What’s the crash

[cursive gazelle]

Read it all you’re not losing anything

[dreamy lodge]

thats a lot of reading

[cursive gazelle]

Put tiktok on the side

[dreamy lodge]

I dont use tiktok

[cursive gazelle]

At least refer to it when you want something

😭

[dreamy lodge]

I have been

[cursive gazelle]

Great !

[twilit tundra]

re: this

where do i find all this

[pastel kernel]

I cannot copy the crash log but it's something about utils.lua

[cursive gazelle]

Read the source code from smods

[cursive gazelle]

What does it say 😭

[twilit tundra]

... ah fuck context is from vanilla isn't it

[cursive gazelle]

There are couple of contexts in vanilla remade and smods docs

Everything you need actually

Some contexts can be skipped or replaced with flags

[twilit tundra]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Calculate-Functions#contexts lets goo

[charred widget]

@cursive gazelle hey just wanted to follow up on the thing i was working on

am i at least getting somewhere

[cursive gazelle]

Somewhere yes

Please don’t modify your variables in loc_vars

Tho

Just return card.ability.extra.xmultvar

And place #1# somewhere in your description

[charred widget]

question

[cursive gazelle]

And it will be replaced with it

[charred widget]

how will the game know that #1# is card.ability.extra.xmultvar

[cursive gazelle]

You return it the first value in loc_vars

If you return (5,card.ability.extra.xmultvar)

Then #1# will be 5 and #2# will be the mult value

[cursive gazelle]

😭i’m on phone

[charred widget]

that makes so much sense

alright imma see how it works

[cursive gazelle]

I hope i helped

Does your joker work btw ?

[pastel kernel]

src/utils.lua:2531: attempt to index a a nil value

[cursive gazelle]

nil checks again

[charred widget]

probably just a syntax error i could fix very quickly

[cursive gazelle]

Missing

,

[charred widget]

yeah that checks out

[cursive gazelle]

Some variables aren’t always available like G.hand being nil aka not existing in shop

You have to take an account for that

And nil check it

[pastel kernel]

But this is a spectral card that spawns a joker.

[cursive gazelle]

Replaces a joker ?

Or just spawns one

[pastel kernel]

Spawns one

It should work like gateway

Removes all held jokers then spawns a new one

New one of a high rarity

[cursive gazelle]

What rarity

Custom ?

Or legendary

[pastel kernel]

Custom

[cursive gazelle]

I mean i can give you the code 😭 it’s not that hard man

You can figure it out

[pastel kernel]

I just copied the code of another spectral card I made, used the thing for destroying all jokers, then ran it

[cursive gazelle]

It doesn’t destroy all jokers tho

[pastel kernel]

Wdym

[cursive gazelle]

Istg i hate coding in note app

lmao not really though
its uh
only replacing the hand *before* you play it, once it actually gets scored it swaps the hand back to what it actually is

how do i get it to actually... be a straight flush

[pastel kernel]

Thanks, i’m using this.

[cursive gazelle]

If you played it then it check if it was played and it’s played

So it goes back

Goodnight modders

[twilit tundra]

what

thats a new one

[frigid cargo]

how can i check if first card in played hand is a specific rank?

[twilit tundra]

ok its getting late im gonna go to bed

[vernal path]

G.play.cards[1]:get_id() i think

[daring fern]

if context.full_hand[1]:get_id() == number

[frigid cargo]

yes thanks

how do i make a for loop that puts specific ranks in?

[chrome widget]

makin' more joker arts

[dreamy lodge]

How does context.selling_card work? I turned "selling_self = <>" to false yet its still triggers when it gets sold? Am I misunderstanding it somehow?

Anti Joker - Rare - Played cards have a 1 in 4 chance to be given a random enhancement
How do I make it so that played cards gain a random enhancement?

[thorny ether]

Hey, so my custom Joker doesn't seem to work with blueprint and I'm at a loss. Can someone point me to the right way? I'm terrible at coding.

[icy depot]

is there a good guide to start with making a mod

[sturdy compass]

2nd pin in #⚙・modding-general

[sturdy compass]

This looks extremely overcomplicated I cannot lie

A lot of this also does not follow typical standards for joker coding. Have you taken a look at VanillaRemade? That may help you with your structure and potentially solve your issue as well

[thorny ether]

So the idea is making the guy copy the first consumable used when the 'first' value is 0, after he copied it, I set the value to 1 to block future copies, and reset it back to 0 as the round ends

[vernal path]

I'm doing something wrong, I'm not sure how check_for_unlock works as I've never used it before:

  check_for_unlock = function(self, args)
    if args.type == 'modify_jokers' and G.jokers then
      for _, joker in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
        if joker.ability.set == 'Joker' and joker.key == 'j_cavendish' then
          return true
        end
      end
      return false
    end
  end```
It's supposed to unlock if you obtain a cavendish, but I'm not sure how that works here

[sturdy compass]

I can tell what it's trying to do

[thorny ether]

Currently he works even with multiple copies but I couldn't get Blueprint/Brainstorm to play nice with it

[sturdy compass]

Instead of doing that loop, try doing if next(SMODS.find_card('j_cavendish')) then

[vernal path]

right, yeah
i was honestly just copying some code from bootstraps, and obviously i dunno what i was doing

:P

[sturdy compass]

I'm not 100% sure but I think you stuffing all of your code in a func return may be part of the cause

Also the elseifs between contexts aren't very standard

You could also simplify it to two checks by changing your first value from a number to a boolean and tacking on a if not card.ability.extra.first to your conditional (or whatever syntax you wanna go with)

[dreamy lodge]

For the life of me I cannot figure out how to check if the sold card was a joker and for it not to trigger on self sell I’m going insane, ive looked on the wiki and vanilla remade but its not helping me at all..

I already know its gonna be the most simple thing and im gonna look stupid

[sturdy compass]

Can you show the conditional?

[thorny ether]

Yeah, I'll totally try that out thanks

Also do you think Blueprint doesn't play nice because it doesn't look at my first value? When I remove the value check it works

Been looking for a workaround for like an hour now 🙁

[dreamy lodge]

Which part is the conditional? is it the "If" statement?

[sturdy compass]

yes

[dreamy lodge]

"if context.selling_card and G.GAME.blind.in_blind then"

[sturdy compass]

And what is the intended function?

[sturdy compass]

That could be a possibility but frankly I'm not 100% on that. I would just work on moving stuff out of that return func first and see where that leaves you

Lowkey I would rewrite it myself right now but it is late asf for me

[thorny ether]

Yeah I'll try that and see how it goes, thanks for the advice

[dreamy lodge]

Here I'll just give you the whole function (without all the previous stuff I tried to make so it wouldnt trigger on self sell and only work on jokers)

[sturdy compass]

I genuinely don't even know what to make of this mess of code 😭

[dreamy lodge]

?

is it that bad

[sturdy compass]

I have never seen balatro code look like this

take that how you will

[slim ferry]

why returning the cardarea............... 😭

[sturdy compass]

Anyways to solve the problem you're trying to fix is simply replace context.selling_card with context.selling_self

[dreamy lodge]

no I want it NOT to trigger when selling self

[sturdy compass]

So only when selling another joker

[dreamy lodge]

yes

[sturdy compass]

if context.selling_card and not context.selling_self and context.card.ability.set == 'Joker' and G.GAME.blind.in_blind then is your conditional then

[umbral zodiac]

holy context

[sturdy compass]

yeah

[dreamy lodge]

that doesnt work

its still triggering on self sell

I tried that exact line of code earlier I cant get this to work i dont understand

[sturdy compass]

then try replacing the not context.selling_self with not context.card == card

context.card ~= card should also work and is probably better for brevity's sake

[dreamy lodge]

now its not triggering at all for anything

[slim ferry]

not context.card == card parses as (not context.card) == card

so you have to use context.card ~= card

[sturdy compass]

Yeahh I forgot about that

I hate Lua sometimes

and it's late

:)

[high verge]

Where does one put localization text for a custom seal?

[sturdy compass]

Under Other

omg thank you so much its working finally I have been trying to do this for over an hour

[high verge]

            hbp_belphegor_seal={

[sturdy compass]

yep

[dreamy lodge]

@sturdy compass thx also

[sturdy compass]

np

[high verge]

        localize = "hbp_belphegor_seal"}```

I have this in the seal but it doesn't seem to work

[sturdy compass]

You shouldn't need that if you're using a localization file

[thorny ether]

Okay this is so weird, I got it to work by setting
local thisdamncard = context.blueprint_card or card

Yep tested a few times and nothing went wrong for now, thanks for giving me ideas Astra!

[high verge]

Okay so the only problem remaining now with the sigil is that the description isn't updating.

                name="Belphegor",
                label="Helluva Boss",
                text={
                    'This Seal gains {X:red,C:white}X1{} Mult',
                    'if in hand at end of each round',
                    'and applies it when played hand scores',
                    '{C:inactive}(Currently {X:red,C:white}X#1# {}{C:inactive} Mult){}',
                    '{C:inactive}(Resets if played)'
                }

I'm trying to get the description to properly show how much of a mult it is giving but it's remaining at the default value

And apparently the label isn't working anymore

🫓

Yeah that's completely the reaction I wanted

[sturdy compass]

Instead of indexing self.config in loc_vars, you should index card.ability.seal like you would in your x_mult return

[high verge]

Oh lovely that fixed the description!

[sturdy compass]

It’s as 🦐le as that

[high verge]

Is it as shrimple fixing the error on the label? xD

I put in text= and label= but neither seems to be fixing it

Coding errors at my level are hilarious since most of the times I'm just using a wrong word or it's a syntax error of a missing damned comma or bracket

Ignore the ugly seals I'm still figuring out how they should look

[tall wharf]

this is way too verbose methinks

[high verge]

I know I hate it but I can't figure out how to phrase it smaller

[sturdy compass]

In your localization under misc/labels do seal_key = ‘text’

[high verge]

Ah interesting that it's in a different area.

[sturdy compass]

This is outside of descriptions btw

[high verge]

Mhm

            seal_hbp_belphegor = 'Helluva Boss'
        },```

I appear to be doing it wrong?

I have it in the misc outside of descriptions

Fixed it putting seal at the end insteada

Thank you very much

Now I just need to make sure the strengthening is working correctly then this seal is ready to go

And hopefully rewording the description smaller

[jolly pivot]

Does the xmult only apply when you play the card

Or does it always apply when held in hand like a steel

[high verge]

So what it currently does is while it's in your hand and not being used it'll add the xmult when your hand is scored. At the end of a round this value gets larger if in hand but if you use the card in a played hand the value resets.

Or that's what it's supposed to do, it seems the adding value at end of each round it's held isn't working

[robust marsh]

gem

thank you, I needed help w creating one

[high verge]

It's a little smaller?

How do I multibox this?

[faint yacht]

text = {
  { 'aeiou' },
  { 'aeiou2' }
}

[high verge]

Hmm that's giving me an error

            hbp_belphegor_seal={
                name="Belphegor",
                text={
                    {'{X:red,C:white}X#1#{} Mult',
                    'while this card',
                    'stays in hand',},
                    {
                    'Gains {X:red,C:white}X1{} if in hand',
                    'at end of round',
                    '{C:inactive}(Resets if played)'},
                },
            }
        }```

[faint yacht]

-# ...ah, seal... not sure.

[high verge]

xD

Do multiboxes not function in seals?

[faint yacht]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[high verge]

Okay neat it's not upgrading at the end of the rounds like it's supposed to

🫓

Muscle memory is gonna kill me with this emote xD

[frigid cargo]

how do i make a for loop that puts specific ranks in a list or smth from played cards?

[vernal path]

What do you mean? Puts ranks where?

[stiff locust]

you can do that??????????

[faint yacht]

Multibox descriptions.

[high verge]

Sadly not seal descriptions

Currently Belphegor for some reason is giving +2 instead of +1 at the end of each round 🫓

I'm also getting an error about repitition tables that is likely 100% related

[stiff locust]

can I get the player's steam ID

[vernal path]

I'm not sure that even the C code has that information, let alone love

[stiff locust]

if steam stores it locally in any way then surely I can filesystem it?

I think I can actually

[vernal path]

uhhhh I'm not sure there'd be a consistent way to get that information
or at the very least, it would make whatever you were doing instantly break on linux

It'd also be super invasive and unsafe

[stiff locust]

it's behind an opt-in feature on my mod's config along with the rest of my filesystem content

so I'd like to say that it's okay since you yourself enable these features

I'm only really looking into it as a more robust way of checking if a person is a person over profile name or profile folder name

[vernal path]

still not amazing
Anyway the steam id3 is in Steam/userdata

i dunno if lua can check the name of a folder

[stiff locust]

it can

i'm already well versed in that regard

before I do that I want to do one other thing

which is to make the filesystem config reset to false when you update the mod

as an extra layer of "you opted in so it's your fault"

[vernal path]

you could have it create a file named the mod version, and check if that file is present

and then if you enable it, you create that file

(or like, log it in a file)

(thats probably better)

[stiff locust]

🤔

yeah I can probably do that

<@&1133519078540185692>

I can read the metadata.json file to get the current version

thanks mods

I'll see if I can figure that out after the next content batch

[vernal path]

So like
they turn on filesystems last update, so it created a folder called ver_log or something
and then it put the version number into it
and then when they update, you check if that file is there (if its not disable the config)
and if that file contains the current version (if it doesnt, disable the config)
and then if they enable it, create the file or append to it the current version

[stiff locust]

indeed

[vernal path]

oh, and you should probably make it accessible to input a specified steam directory
so if they are on linux or are using a non standard file system they can still play along

[stiff locust]

i don't know exactly how to do that ingame, but I put comments in the files that say you can do that and outlined where to do it

[vernal path]

i think thats probably the best thing

maybe in the config page tell them about it

[stiff locust]

if I can make a text input in the config I'll do that

that would be my preferred method

i mostly want to use the steam ID as a way of checking that someone is someone

that lets me make person specific effects which sounds good for jokebox

[vernal path]

lmao?

checking to see if they are roffle
so you can cause photochad to always spawn

[stiff locust]

I wanna make a joker that gives X1 mult for each character you've beaten me with in a full match of guilty gear strive

[vernal path]

lmaooooo

[stiff locust]

i've been doing stuff like this lately to try to manipulate the minmaxxers

if someone wants to get the most out of jokebox they will challenge me to strive and I get to play more strive and they get more xmult and we both win

[frigid cargo]

Sorry for the LATE reply, i forgot to specify a list or smth just to check if 2s 3s 4s or 5s are a part of the played scoring hand

[stiff locust]

yes I know they can just change the file to do it, but that will always be a problem regardless of what I do, the steam ID is the best I can do at verifying it in a way that is difficult for somebody to decode without coding knowledge

[vernal path]

it would probably be better to check the steam console log then

[stiff locust]

I don't know what that is

[vernal path]

oh wait no im stupid asf

its in steam/logs

[modern kindle]

the nefarious sha 256 lua hashing in case they change it:

[stiff locust]

i don't know what that is either

[frigid cargo]

Hi dilly

[modern kindle]

hi

[stiff locust]

if there is some way I can stop people from changing the filesystem lua files it would be cool

[vernal path]

ah i found the best place to check i think

[stiff locust]

while I do attribute going into the mod and changing the xmult values to be the same as using debugplus to press "win the blind" not everyone shares that point of view

[vernal path]

C:\Program Files (x86) (or whatever, its been a minute since ive been on windows)\Steam\config\config.vdf

its got a key "Accounts" which has their name and steam id

i have no idea how to read this in lua, but im sure you can figure out how to parse a massive file

(its really probably too large lmao, make your ram usage skyrocket for no raisin)

its such a big file kate didnt like me loading itt

[stiff locust]

i think i will just check the userdata folder to avoid a massive amount of ram usage whenever I access the value

[vernal path]

thats fair

[stiff locust]

iirc love.filesystem goes line by line on reading files

[vernal path]

i was looking for steam64 id which is the one you use for profiles, usually

[stiff locust]

that would take ages

[vernal path]

but if you are just comparing it to one value it doesnt matter lmao

[stiff locust]

yeah it should be fine

[vernal path]

mine was at line 500, imagine

[dreamy lodge]

Is there a way to make a joker show up more often without using a custom rarity?

[stiff locust]

yes

[dreamy lodge]

how so?

[stiff locust]

i don't remember

but there is a way

[vernal path]

> refuses to elaborate further

[stiff locust]

genuinely I don't remember how

but I know for a fact that there is a way to do it

I'm pretty sure uhhh

[vernal path]

maybe wait until N' is awake, lmao

[stiff locust]

saukhonghudecks

does it

i mightve spelled that wrong

but they have a tsaunami deck which makes splash more likely to appear

[vernal path]

lmao???

[stiff locust]

it does other things

retriggers every played card 1 time for each splash you have

it has crossmod with tsunami (splash sleeve makes it work with splash fusions too)

so check there yeah

[stiff locust]

obligatory jokebox plug
-# you seem impressionable and subject to shock value humor which jokebox is good for

[vernal path]

i mean i find it mildly funny
i dont necessarily want to play it

[stiff locust]

damn

[dreamy lodge]

does it make it show up more often or does it just make it be able to get dupes?

[stiff locust]

it does both

go go go

[vernal path]

i mean the two would be separable, so it shouldnt be a problem

[dreamy lodge]

I guess I just have to search through all of the code now to look for it

[stiff locust]

you're looking for a take_ownership

i would asume

[dreamy lodge]

dis?

[vernal path]

yeah, thats what i figured
its probably a part of the deck code instead

[stiff locust]

this is the allow dupes code, so yeah check for the deck code

[dreamy lodge]

this one?

[vernal path]

uhhhhhh

maybe its a lovely patch??

[stiff locust]

idk where the code is for it

[cursive gazelle]

hello modders

[dreamy lodge]

ello

[dreamy lodge]

do you happen to know how to make a joker show up more often without using a custom rarity?

[cursive gazelle]

shop weight

i don't think it's an argument to jokers tho

SMODS.Rarity{
    key = "supercommon",
    default_weight = 0,
    badge_colour = HEX('8c94a3'),
    pools = {
        ["Joker"] = true
    },

}```

[stiff locust]

supercommon

[cursive gazelle]

extracommon some might say

@stiff locust how do i rotate sprites again

[stiff locust]

hell if I know

I never got it to work the way I wanted it to

scrapped the code and the idea

[cursive gazelle]

[stiff locust]

i wanted to make a beyblade joker that would play the beyblade song and spin for its duration and give benefits until it stopped spinning

the duration being in real world seconds

[cursive gazelle]

just stopped ?

[stiff locust]

it never spun

that's like, half of the joke

[cursive gazelle]

damn

[stiff locust]

I didn't wanna do it if it wouldn't spin

[cursive gazelle]

did it at least rotare

rotate*

[stiff locust]

kind of?

ask n' about it, joyousspring has better rotating code for defense position stuff

[cursive gazelle]

i just want a 45deg rotating

[stiff locust]

i rotate for fun and n' rotates for glory

[dreamy lodge]

Oh so it wont do anything in a joker then? so then is it impossible to show up more often without using custom rarity?

Well rip my joker idea

[cursive gazelle]

you can but it's weird to implement

this is simpler

[dreamy lodge]

Well for my joker idea a custom rarity wouldnt really work

I wanted the joker itself when you have it to increase the chances of you getting another

Maybe I thought of a workaround, is it possible to make a joker appear in the shop via a jokers effect

cus if so I could just make in a 1 in 10 chance or somethin then boom it shows up more often

[cursive gazelle]

you can spawn it in shop

[primal robin]

[cursive gazelle]

like tags do

[dreamy lodge]

yeah that should work right?

[cursive gazelle]

yes

[dreamy lodge]

so how does that work exactly? I tried copying some of the stuff from the tags in vanilla remade but it wasnt working

Is it formatted different since its a joker not a tag

[cursive gazelle]

you have to check for entering a shop

how are you doing this exactly ?

[dreamy lodge]

Is that a context?

in the wiki I only see reroll and leaving shop not enter shop

[cursive gazelle]

i think it's a state but there's a context for leaving a shope

surely there's a one for entering

[cursive gazelle]

just make it appear after one reroll

sounds reasonable to me

you could also add a chance to spawn for every reroll

[dreamy lodge]

great idea

so now how do I make it appear?

just the same way they do in tags?

[cursive gazelle]

rip the code from rare tag

not all of it

local card = SMODS.create_card {
                set = "Joker",
                area = context.area,
                key_append = "v"
            }
            create_shop_card_ui(card, 'Joker', context.area)
            card.states.visible = false
            tag:yep('+', G.C.GREEN, function()
                card:start_materialize()
                card.ability.couponed = true
                return true
            end)
            return card```

woops

add key="j_modprefix_jkey",

and your usual proba in context

[dreamy lodge]

it crashed

[cursive gazelle]

oh this may crash because of tag:yep

i think you can get rid of it

[dreamy lodge]

It crashed again even after removing that

[cursive gazelle]

what's the crash ?

[wispy falcon]

Is there a reason why it's config = { extra = { something = "something" } } instead of config = { something = "something" } in Jokers?

[dreamy lodge]

it crashed on the reroll

[cursive gazelle]

it just works in extra some other game objects don't have an extra field like tags

[wispy falcon]

Okay, got it

[cursive gazelle]

can i see your full code

[cursive gazelle]

why are you using your joker key as a set

set means a set of cards

like jokers tarots spectrals etc

[dreamy lodge]

I thought you said to swap them with the key?

[cursive gazelle]

no i sad add the key=

lol

[dreamy lodge]

oh

oops

so like this?

[wispy falcon]

What is the table with all planet cards again?

[cursive gazelle]

also fix your syntax it's cooked a little

[dreamy lodge]

wdym?

[cursive gazelle]

brother you question doesn't make any sense

[cursive gazelle]

align the elements better

[dreamy lodge]

are they not aligned already?

[wispy falcon]

Is there no table with planet cards?

[cursive gazelle]

there's a set

[daring fern]

All planet cards or owned planet cards?

[cursive gazelle]

yes

[dreamy lodge]

is this better

[wispy falcon]

All planet cards

[cursive gazelle]

check vanilla remade wiki to see how you can fetch them

[daring fern]

G.P_CENTER_POOLS.Planet

[daring fern]

Right click > Format document

[dreamy lodge]

I see

[dreamy lodge]

Also this still isn't working

[gaunt phoenix]

I'm trying to code a joker who enhances all cards on the last hand of the round (triggering as the same time as dusk)

Does someone sees a problem here ? It just.. don't work. It's not crashing, it's just doing absolutely nothing :c (pls ping me)

[dreamy lodge]

its not crashing anymore but its no doing anything

[dreamy lodge]

dusk triggers at hands left 0 no?

[daring fern]

Yes, remove the return card and remove the card.states.visible = false

[gaunt phoenix]

Hmm maybe idk honestly :/ but my joker would trigger anyway, just a hand too early, and now that's doing nothing

[daring fern]

It's G.GAME.current_round.hands_left and it's 0

[daring fern]

Also context.area doesn't exist.

It would be G.shop_jokers

[dreamy lodge]

ummmm

[wispy falcon]

So if I want to spawn all planet cards it would be SMODS.add_card(G.P_CENTER_POOLS.Planet)?

[gaunt phoenix]

it's working, thx

[daring fern]

No, you would have to loop over it and do SMODS.add_card({key = v.key})

[wispy falcon]

Oh, okay

[dreamy lodge]

its still not working

[daring fern]

Use SMODS.add_card instead of SMODS.create_card

[dreamy lodge]

Okay its working now but its just adding a third card to the shop now? shouldnt it be replacing one of the other ones like the rare tag

[daring fern]

No, it shouldn't because you're telling it to add the card to the shop slots.

[dreamy lodge]

I ripped all of the stuff from the rare tag so I thought it would

well how do I replace one of the slots then

[dreamy lodge]

Also why would something that doesnt exist be in vanilla remade?

[daring fern]

Because it's a tag.

[wispy falcon]

How would I make them not all spawn instantaneous but rather one after each other? Using delay() in the for loop doesn't work...

      SMODS.add_card(planets)
end```

[gaunt phoenix]

is it possible to make a joker impossible to debuff ?

[daring fern]

Put it in an event.

[daring fern]

Yes.

[gaunt phoenix]

How ? ;; can't find anything about that

[daring fern]

SMODS.current_mod.set_debuff = function(card)
    if card.config.center.key == 'j_modprefix_key' then
        return 'prevent_debuff'
    end
end

[gaunt phoenix]

and where am I supposed to put this ? In my joker code ? Or another place ?

[daring fern]

Outside the joker.

[gaunt phoenix]

okay, will try that

thanks for the help ✨

[daring fern]

You would hook Tag:apply_to_run

[dreamy lodge]

Oh can you only replace shop slots via tags?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[wispy falcon]

Like this?

                        SMODS.add_card(planets)
                        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                            func = function()
                                delay(1)
                                return true
                            end
                        }))
                    end```

[dreamy lodge]

are custom tags hard to make?

[daring fern]

No, put the SMODS.add_card in the event, and remove the delay.

[cursive gazelle]

no

i made 10 yesterday lol

[daring fern]

No, what I meant was, it's possible with a joker, if you hook Tag:apply_to_run

[dreamy lodge]

?

yeah but I'd have to make a custom tag for that to matter hence why I asked

[wispy falcon]

Okay, it's still a bit fast then though...

[daring fern]

Do you not know what hooking is?

[dreamy lodge]

no

[daring fern]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#whats-a-hook

[dreamy lodge]

that seems confusing

so its just a way to do extra stuff?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[dreamy lodge]

so how would I do this then if it does work?

[daring fern]

You would check if context.type = 'store_joker_create' and next(SMODS.find_card('j_modprefix_key')) then return the created card.

[stiff locust]

what's the weight of the uncommon rarity

[red flower]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Rarity

[rotund sable]

Is there any documentation/example code about creating a custom CardArea and displaying it in UI?

[manic rune]

create a cardarea, save it in a global variable then put it in object in config of G.UIT.O

[rotund sable]

Well I overcomplicated it in my head then

Ty

Also is there a function that creates the entire deck or do I have to create one myself

[errant arrow]

i am very confused now, didn't have this issue with Nature's Assistence, but now im having trouble with a new mod.
The new mod "The Brutal City" is in the mod list, but isnt being detected by balatro

[red flower]

Is it in the mod list in-game?

[errant arrow]

no, i have it in the files but it's not being detected

this is the meta data for it

[red flower]

author has to be an array iirc

[errant arrow]

well... i know it's being detected now. got a game crash and from the looks of it, it's talisman

[red flower]

that looks like a card description has the wrong format

[errant arrow]

yeah i see the issue now

-# good thing i have another mod to look at to figure out what happened-

alright, it works now, thank you

[wispy falcon]

Does anyone know, why this results in the sprites x to immediatley jump to 9 before just doing what it should do (0, 1, 2 etc.)?

        if card.ability.extra.animation == true then
            print(card.children.center.sprite_pos.x)
            card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({ x = math.floor(G.TIMERS.REAL * 1) % 10, y = 1 })
        end
    end,

[red flower]

it's based on the time so it will do whatever sprite time % 10 gives you first

if you need to start at the beginning then you would need to keep a separate counter probably

[wispy falcon]

How?

Because this just sprints through because update gets called every frame

        if card.ability.extra.animation == true then
            if card.ability.extra.frame > 9 then

[red flower]

you need to only increment when some amount of time passes

[wispy falcon]

And how would I keep track of that?

[red flower]

either with G.TIMERS.REAL or dt

[wispy falcon]

What was the difference again?

[rotund sable]

Surely delay() would be the solution 🫣

[wispy falcon]

But delay doesn't work there, does it?

[red flower]

i dont think its a good idea to delay for animations

it will delay everything else all the time

[rotund sable]

I gave the worst idea that I could think of

I recall seeing that delay is just a blocking event or something

[red flower]

timers.real is a timer while dt is delta time, so for the first you would have to keep track of the initial value while for the second you need to accumulate it until it reaches the time you want (also dt respects game speed)

[red flower]

yeah

[wispy falcon]

Hey, this works :D

            local frame_duration = 0.25

            -- dt is the time since last frame (comes from engine)
            card.ability.extra.timer = (card.ability.extra.timer or 0) + dt

            if card.ability.extra.timer >= frame_duration then
                card.ability.extra.frame = card.ability.extra.frame + 1
                card.ability.extra.timer = card.ability.extra.timer - frame_duration
            end```

I have a different problem TwT. Why does this sometimes result in an error?

                        delay(0.15)
                        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                            func = function()
                                SMODS.add_card(planets)
                                return true
                            end
                        }))
                    end```

[stiff locust]

how could I remove all stickers from a joker

[wispy falcon]

I just realized that I don't want it to respect game speed, can I change that easily or not?

[red flower]

you can use G.real_dt

[gilded goblet]

ik you can do things like G.jokers.cards[i].ability.name_of_sticker = false

prolly not the best

[stiff locust]

this doesn't really help with modded stickers unfortunately

[gilded goblet]

yeah...

[wispy falcon]

Now my system doesn't work anymore...

[manic rune]

how do i make the box's outline or something not stretched
fixed

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[wispy falcon]

Fixed it and all it took was some math >0<

[primal robin]

What was fix?

[manic rune]

:p

[primal robin]

makes sense

Still dont know whats the deal with this full ui table

[manic rune]

im p sure main is for names and descriptions, while info refers to the info_queue boxes

[primal robin]

I was not working with card iu this much, so every time I see this table it feels bad

[manic rune]

same, same, but recently ive been working with card ui a lot so im getting used to it 3:
-# most notably the multi line, formatted info queue name shit, that took at least 5 years from my life span

[rotund sable]

well this is a first (i had vscode running with one dump file open)

[primal robin]

Multi lines when you don't have access for smods kinda problematic

You have 2 options: use localize with type like 'descriptions', 'unlock', or literally copypaste part where localize function construct lines

[manic rune]

iirc for the pr i added a flag for when info queues are created, then instead of using G.UIT.T in the name node it uses G.UIT.O instead 🤔

i had to manually tweak the DynaText's scale until it looks pretty much identical to how the old G.UIT.T looked like lol

[primal robin]

A lot of patching yay

[manic rune]

true...

[primal robin]

I have in my plans make a collection of UI components

Whih you can copy-paste and they will work

With room for customization, and docs

[manic rune]

mmmm very interested in how that would turn out

[primal robin]

Tbf I found this much more interesting than developing content or waste time try to position card area properly

[thorn basin]

I made a boss blind that debuffs a random rank avaiable in the full deck and changes every hand but for some reason it doesn't debuff anything, how can I fix this?

_ _

[mystic river]

here's how i did it

[thorn basin]

Wait, maybe I know

[glossy sky]

how do you make a Joker that triggers on individual context not trigger on retriggers?

[mystic river]

though Card:remove_sticker() is a function that exists and probably works better

[gaunt phoenix]

I was wondering : would it be possible to make a deck where only my modded jokers can spawn ? if yes, how could I do that ? (pls ping me)

[rotund sable]

for k, v in pairs(G.P_CENTERS) do
    if v.set == 'Joker' then
        if (not v.mod) then
            G.GAME.banned_keys[k] = true
        end
    end
end

would this work?

[frosty dock]

not what they asked for, this allows all modded jokers (as well as vanilla jokers modified by mods)

[rotund sable]

yes i know

it would be (v.mod or {}).id == "id"

[frosty dock]

-# also this goes in apply

[thorn basin]

nvm it still doesn't work

why it doesn't debuff the cards from a random selected rank of the full deck?

[distant junco]

How does updating the loc_text work in the update function

Would I be able to update specific lines by themselves?

[gilded goblet]

now i need to figure out how to make the stickers not be applied in stakes its not supposed to... send help

i have a silly idea

[hardy viper]

reading the documentation :

[rotund sable]

uhh

CardAreas are in fact not easy

[gilded goblet]

yeah that worked ty

[frosty dock]

somehow the sticker gets blocked? idk why

[errant arrow]

What was the code to load a file?
I remember it being something like

assert(load_file:

from there I get lost

[rotund sable]

assert(SMODS.load_file("file.lua"))()

[errant arrow]

Thank you!

[gilded goblet]

wdym

[rotund sable]

uhh, where's the node.lua file? (this is the dump)

[red flower]

here

if its not patched then theres no dump

[rotund sable]

how would CardArea.FRAME be nil if it's defined in the Node:init then

[red flower]

dunno

[rotund sable]

ok wth??

still crashes

im confused

EF.CARDAREAS.blackjack_dealer = CardArea(
  0, 0,
  G.CARD_W * 8, G.CARD_H,
  {
      card_limit = 8,
      type = 'title',
      highlight_limit = 0,
  }
)

{n = G.UIT.T, config = { text="Dealers Cards", scale = 0.75, colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_DARK}, nodes = {}},
{n = G.UIT.O, config = { object = EF.CARDAREAS.blackjack_dealer }},

[red flower]

when does it crash

[rotund sable]

when i call the ui function

function EF.FUNCS.UIDEF.blackjack_game(bet)
  if not bet then error("where the hell is the bet") end
  if not EF.vars.minigames.main_menu then ease_dollars(-bet, true) end

  return {
    n=G.UIT.ROOT,
    config = {r = 0.1, minw = 15, minh = 8, align = "cm", colour = G.C.BLACK, padding = 0.5},
    nodes = {
      {n=G.UIT.R, nodes={
        {n = G.UIT.T, config = { text="Dealers Cards", scale = 0.75, colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_DARK}, nodes = {}},
        {n = G.UIT.O, config = { object = EF.CARDAREAS.blackjack_dealer }},
      }}
    }
  }
end

this one

[red flower]

do you have that in a uibox

[rotund sable]

i in fact dont

damn

i have no idea what im doing

[vocal helm]

I might be missing something incredibly simple despite staring at the docs for roughly an hour, but my modded joker isn't showing up and I have a feeling it has to do with my localization files
for context, this is my en-us.lua file:

return {
    descriptions = {
        Joker={
            j_j8mod_prophecy = {
                name = "Prophecy",
                text = {
                    "After {C:attention}#1#{} rounds,",
                    "sell this card to",
                    "create a {C:spectral}Spectral{} card",
                    "{C:inactive}(Currently {C:attention}#2#{C:inactive}/#1#)"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

and this is the one Joker (doesn't do anything yet) I have in my jokers.lua file:

-- Prophecy
SMODS.Joker = {
    key = "prophecy",
    atlas = "j8-jokers",
    unlocked = true,
    blueprint_compat = false,
    discovered = true,
    eternal_compat = false,
    rarity = 2,
    cost = 6,
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    -- add draw function later
    config = { extra = { prophecy_rounds = 0, total_rounds = 3 } },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        local main_end
        return { vars = {card.ability.extra.total_rounds, card.ability.extra.prophecy_rounds }, main_end = main_end }
    end
}```
My mod `id` is "J8Mod" and my mod `prefix` is "j8mod"; idk if I'm meant to format the variables in the localization in a specific way

[slim ferry]

jokers still show up even without any localization text

youre probably just not loading the file its in

[vocal helm]

}
``` i am

[slim ferry]

hmmm

[vocal helm]

(this is j8mod.lua)

[rotund sable]

is j8mod.lua defined as the main file in the json?

[vocal helm]

}

[frosty dock]

I tried to send the "I love undocumented functions" image as a sticker

but it got blocked

so I had to send it has an emoji

[errant arrow]

How does rarity creation work? Trying to make something between Rare and Legendary

I've looked at the smods wiki and it's hieroglyphics to me

[slim ferry]

it has like a key

thats like half of the rarity

and the other half is the weight and colour

[gilded goblet]

oh that sticker lmao

[frosty dock]

lol I guess out of context, what I said doesn't make any sense

[gilded goblet]

i think the server has stickers and gifs blocked

well i mean, gifs from tenor and perhaps giphy

[frosty dock]

I knew about gifs

[gilded goblet]

or whatever the hell it is called

[frosty dock]

Just didn't know it also blocks stickers

[gilded goblet]

yeah thats silly (kinda)

i can see why but idk

[gilded goblet]

okay, im a bit confused about how i should go about telling my sticker "if card has eternal, then do not apply our sticker"
how can i go about that? and perhaps this is rlly simple but i just cant wrap my head around it atm lol

[vocal helm]

still no luck with this, I'm gonna try starting over, but I'm still not 100% clear on how I should name the keys for my localization file

[red flower]

the mod loads but the joker doesnt show up at all?

[vocal helm]

correct

[red flower]

can you take screenshots of your file structure?

[red flower]

did you change this to point to that main file

[vocal helm]

yeah I changed it to forager_nonessentials.lua

[red flower]

weird

i think the joker should load but crash

[vocal helm]

trying something simpler to start helped i think

tried a different simpler joker idea and I think it works

well. some things worked, some things didn't

looks like i gotta fix the card offsets too

[exotic hedge]

it looks nice

ok i got it working

j_j8mod_69_joke was misspelled as "j_jmod_69_joke"

what would go into the UIBox? if feel like i tried everything that made sense but it just doesn't work

[red flower]

G.box = UIBox {definition = EF.FUNCS.UIDEF.blackjack_game(bet), config = {}}
something like that

[rotund sable]

i swear the last time it didn't work

im just coping at this point

ty N <3

[robust marsh]

creating a custom card area is proving to be quite torturous

[red flower]

whats the problem

[queen meadow]

is there a check or a context for when a seal is triggered?

[robust marsh]

i kinda realized that i have no clue what i'm doing when it comes to UI, feels like I'm walking on eggshells because I break the area whenever I try to tamper with it

[primal robin]

Ha, true

[queen meadow]

wanted to do something about this

made it better

[robust marsh]

getting there

[rotund sable]

found out why the original crash happened to my card area, i tried to render it in main menu

wait that's not entirely true

it was this line....

why the hell did i pass 0 in the place of an element

there goes a few hours for stupid crap

[gilded goblet]

-# bump

[robust marsh]

I mostly got my card area to work but when i try to emplace a card it just shifts the card area and it stays in this position forever no matter which deck i am trying to use

yup one moment

Try this

[robust marsh]

oki

[cursive gazelle]

I’ll definitely nuke your game with this one

[robust marsh]

yeah i figured 😭

i removed set_pos, everything works properly

thank you ❤️

[cursive gazelle]

Ah

No worries i did nothing

[red flower]

make the type jokers

[robust marsh]

I wouldn't figure this out on my own so

[robust marsh]

even if it's meant for consumables?

[red flower]

yes

[robust marsh]

alright

[red flower]

that one doesnt exist i dont think

[robust marsh]

ah

[cursive gazelle]

[robust marsh]

I thought it does

[cursive gazelle]

Don’t argue with the boss

[robust marsh]

😭

hm this is weird.. my consumable is acting odd when in the new card area. Normally it's supposed to gain a "charge" at the end of a round but for some reason that functionality is just absent and I can't see why this would affect that segment

[distant junco]

is there any guide/documentations for how to update text like the description of a joker?

[rotund sable]

"i wonder why it crashes"
my Object Node

[cursive gazelle]

    local chars = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"

    for i = 1, 5 do
        local rand = math.random(#chars)
        res = res .. string.sub(chars, rand, rand)
    end```

Return res in your loc_vars

[distant junco]

what

[frosty rampart]

loc_vars lets you pass variables to the localization function that can be substituted into your description
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Localization#loc_vars

what s gave you is a code snippet that generates a random string of 5 alphanumeric characters, which if it was in your loc_vars function and then you returned res as one of the variables, would create a new random string every frame and result in a constantly shifting gibberish description similar to misprint's

[robust marsh]

mmm huh.. I guess cards can't recognize end of round in the new card area

holy pain

[gilded goblet]

im so fucking close to making my sticker work, img onna take a break for now since i literally cant think of anything else to try

[red flower]

are you using main_eval

[robust marsh]

yes

[red flower]

try not using it

[robust marsh]

Alright, I was using it primarily to avoid repeating actions

[red flower]

yeah if it works without it you can do not context.individual and not context.repetition

[robust marsh]

yeah it doesn't work regardless, for some reason

[red flower]

weird

[robust marsh]

if you want I can share the consumable's code, it's pretty messy so i'd guess things would break quite easily

[red flower]

yeah i can take a look

[robust marsh]

okih

[robust marsh]

figured it out

[urban wasp]

how am i able to create an infobox/queue like this?

[slim ferry]

just add it in descriptions.other

in your localization

and then you can do info_queue{#info_queue+1] = { set = "Other", key = <key> }

[urban wasp]

i see

[robust marsh]

the only remaining issue is the use button being longer than usual but besides that everything works just fine :)

if anyone knows the fix for this please do reach out

[glad osprey]

how do I modify SMODS.Back's call function

hook it rather

[dim maple]

hey so im trying to fix my balatro and this crash keeps happening, anyone know how to fix this? I've tried reinstalling the version.dll file and it doesn't work, thought it was the mods i have installed and its not it. I dont know

[glad osprey]

no thats a mod

lovely doesnt do anything on its own so its definitely some mod

[dim maple]

do you see like any mod that would conflict? because i dont

[frosty rampart]

the crash is just happening before steamodded can put together its mod list

[dim maple]

so i need to reinstall smods?

[frosty rampart]

no

the crash is coming from the process of loading one of your mods

[glad osprey]

also pro tip everyone dont click on this person's server badge

for your own sake

[dim maple]

honestly i should prolly remove it

it was for a different game leaking server

[languid aurora]

I've been getting that same error any time I launch with steamodded beta 827c

if I launch with 810a instead it works fine, aside from aikoyori's shenanigans not working

[slim ferry]

yeah because 810a is old

one of your mods just doesnt work with latest smods

for some reason

i presume

[languid aurora]

oh, apparently it was cryptid

[slim ferry]

cryptid should work with latest smods

you probably have a mix of latest releases and latest commits which can cause issues

[languid aurora]

so cryptid 0.5.11 is a bad version then?

[slim ferry]

cryptid 0.5.11 is just old

latest is 0.5.12a

so you should probably just go and update all your mods first

[languid aurora]

ok that actually fixed it, thanks

[distant junco]

if i have a table within a table do i access it like table[1,3]

[slim ferry]

table.<key>.<key>

or table[...].<key>

or table[...][...]

[distant junco]

table[1][3]

ok thank you

[harsh belfry]

what is the alternative to modulo in shader code because it dont work lmfao

other than like a while loop imp but that seems slow

i'll probably do that for now i just hope that someone knows a faster way

[latent perch]

couldn't you just

uint a = 24;
uint b = 7
float modu = fract(a / b) * b 

but also why is modulo not working?!?! I don't know shader code well :)

[gilded goblet]

why is riff raff creating jokers with stickers bro 😭 i cant wait to be done with this shit

[slim ferry]

bwuh

why the fuck is it doing that

[gilded goblet]

i have no idea

[harsh belfry]

amazing
i have no idea what i am doing for shader code so thank you

[latent perch]

might need to use number though !!

[harsh belfry]

i'll do that if it explodes

[latent perch]

or maybe look at other shaders!!

https://github.com/Steamodded/examples/blob/master/Mods/EditionExamples/EditionExamples.lua#L126

this helped me

[gilded goblet]

alright i have officially given up, if someone knows how to make stickers that actually work please @ me because id love to learn a thing or two

[urban wasp]

why does the game hate me (this is a voucher)

...
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context and context.buying_card and context.card and context.card.config and context.card.config.center and context.card.config.center.key == "j_crp_bulgoe" then
            G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                trigger = 'after',
                delay = 0.1,
                func = function()
                    if context.card and context.card.config and context.card.config.center and context.card.config.center.key == "j_crp_bulgoe" then
                        context.card:set_edition("e_crp_really_negative")
                    end
                end
            }))
        end
    end,
...

[slim ferry]

looks like an edition issue and not a voucher issue

[urban wasp]

SMODS.Edition {
    key = "really_negative",
    weight = 0.3,
    shader = false,
    in_shop = true,
    extra_cost = 5,
    get_weight = function(self)
        return G.GAME.edition_rate * self.weight
    end,
    config = { card_limit = 3 },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue)
        return { vars = { self.config.card_limit } }
    end,
    crp_credits = {
        idea = { "PurplePickle" },
        code = { "wilfredlam0418" }
    }
}

[slim ferry]

do you have a label for it in misc.labels in your localization

[urban wasp]

...
misc = {
  ...
  labels = {
    ...
    crp_really_negative = "Really Negative",
    ...
  }
}

(yes)

[slim ferry]

youre missing the class prefix there

should be e_crp_really_negative

[urban wasp]

these all work fine

...
        labels = {
            crp_overloaded = "Overloaded",
            ["crp_four-dimensional"] = "Four-Dimensional",
            crp_zany = "Zany",
            crp_mad = "Mad",
            crp_crazy = "Crazy",
...

i'll try it nonetheless

still borked

...
            e_crp_really_negative = "Really Negative",
            e_crp_super_negative = "Super Negative",
            e_crp_photon_readings_negative = "Photon Readings Negative",
            e_crp_photon_readings_really_negative = "Photon Readings are REALLY FUCKING NEGATIVE",
            e_crp_photon_readings_gone = "Photon Readings are Gone.",

why does the game hate me 😭

i need an expert to help me out here i probably missed something super small

[chrome widget]

If no one else answered this, it's a function mod()

[urban wasp]

on another note, this crashes the game for some reason and i don't know why i just want my shader to use the same shader as the regular negative shader

SMODS.Edition {
    key = "really_negative",
    weight = 0.3,
    shader = "negative",
    in_shop = true,
    extra_cost = 5,
    get_weight = function(self)
        return G.GAME.edition_rate * self.weight
    end,
    config = { card_limit = 3 },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue)
        return { vars = { self.config.card_limit } }
    end,
    crp_credits = {
        idea = { "PurplePickle" },
        code = { "wilfredlam0418" }
    }
}

should it be like e_negative or something

[chrome widget]

What's the log look like?

[urban wasp]

(this is when i tried "e_negative", but "negative" has the same outcome)

[chrome widget]

says the value being sent is 'crp_e_negative'

[urban wasp]

don't know why it's try to start it with crp

any way to... not do that?

i could obviously make a new file in my mod that is just a copy of the negative shader and use that, but i would really rather not

unless it's the only way

[chrome widget]

Have you declared it as a new shader?

[urban wasp]

no, since i'm attempting to use a (presumably) pre-established vanilla shader

oh wait i'm stupid

it just occured to me what to do lol

wait no that wouldn't work nevermind

😭

[chrome widget]

Otherwise I'm not really sure? The shader field on vanilla negative is just "negative" as you have

[urban wasp]

yeah i think smods or something is automatically putting my prefix in front and nothing would really be able to change that

[chrome widget]

I have a theory, lemme finish cooking dinner

[urban wasp]

okay

[harsh belfry]

aint prefix config a thing

[urban wasp]

on another another note, would this work? i forget what the function for finding if a joker exists or not is

extra_cost = SMODS.find_card("j_crp_statically_charged") and 0 or 13,

[chrome widget]

Prefix config is usually for the actual item key, I thought

[harsh belfry]

like

prefix_config = {
  shader = false
}

[harsh belfry]

why do you think its a table

[chrome widget]

Strangely backhanded and passive aggressive statement. Try not to do that

[urban wasp]

okay hold on i just tested this and the extra price of overloaded (an edition) cards didn't go down to 0 when the joker was owned... why is that

...
extra_cost = next(SMODS.find_card("j_crp_statically_charged")) and 0 or 13,
...

[high verge]

That looks so cool

[indigo bloom]

Hey! So a Joker in a mod I'm helping with has the functionality of when it's sold, it'll skip the current blind, provided it's not a boss blind. However, when one of this joker is sold, and two or more are held, every single blind will be skipped, including boss blinds. This is an issue if players in the run get the Showman Joker, since with it, they'll be able to replicate this and just win the game without really playing.
Any idea why this is happening?
This is the code

[high verge]

Where do localization for config tooltips go?

[urban wasp]

config tooltips? wdym exactly

[high verge]

That

[urban wasp]

oh i'm not sure

[high verge]

I currently have it under dictionary with the config item name

But when I try to call it it gives an error

[harsh belfry]

sorry i didn't think it was backhanded but i will try not to do that

[chrome widget]

Thank you, apology accepted

[high verge]

Pain

[bold sleet]

dot

[high verge]

                                tooltip = {set = 'Other', key = 'helluvajokers_tooltip'},
                            },```

```Other={
            -- Config
            hbp_helluvajokers_tooltip = {
                name = "Why.",
                text = {
                    "Adds new jokers."
                }
            },}```

Okay got it working I guess I just had the wrong brackets earlier

[urban wasp]

how would i make it so that this creates a joker from the bulgoe pool instead of j_crp_bulgoe

SMODS.Voucher {
    key = "bulgscension",
    name = "Bulgscension",
    atlas = "crp_placeholder",
    pos = { x = 7, y = 2 },
    config = { extra = { } },
    requires = { "v_crp_bulgcrowd" },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = { set = "Other", key = "bulgoe-themed_joker" }
        return { vars = { } }
    end,
    redeem = function(self, card)
        local card = create_card('Joker', G.shop_jokers, nil, 1, nil, nil, "j_crp_bulgoe", 'bulgoverstock')
        create_shop_card_ui(card, "Joker", G.shop_jokers)
        card:set_cost()
        card:start_materialize()
        G.shop_jokers:emplace(card)
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.reroll_shop then
            local card = create_card('Joker', G.shop_jokers, nil, 1, nil, nil, "j_crp_bulgoe", 'bulgoverstock')
            create_shop_card_ui(card, "Joker", G.shop_jokers)
            card:set_cost()
            card:start_materialize()
            G.shop_jokers:emplace(card)
        end
    end,
    crp_credits = {
        idea = { "ScarredOut" },
        code = { "Rainstar" }
    }
}

also is there a context for when the shop is entered

[red flower]

starting_shop

for the other thing use SMODS.add_card{set = "bulgoe"}

[urban wasp]

that puts the card in the player's joker slots

[red flower]

then SMODS.create_card

[urban wasp]

okay then

what would i replace with that btw

[high verge]

How do I add a localization line that has a second line?

helluvacustomsuits_tooltip = "Changes suit names.","Clubs = Moons, Diamonds = Mammons, Spades = Crowns.", Doing this only shows the first line and gives an error for everything else. Putting brackets around it gives a "UI error" on the tooltip.

[red flower]

the create_card call

[urban wasp]

ok

[red flower]

what's this for

[high verge]

Config tooltip

[red flower]

how are you localizing it now

[high verge]

That's the current localization code

Which only pulls the first line.

[red flower]

i mean what's the code you use that in

[high verge]

config = { tooltip = {text = {localize('helluvacustomsuits_tooltip')}},},

[urban wasp]

uhh bump since n' is online now and he would be smart enough to know why this is happening (hopefully) 😭

[red flower]

never used this but it seems like text takes a table, you could add a second call to localize
like text = { localize('key1'), localize('key2') }

[high verge]

I'll try that

No change

config = { tooltip = {text = {localize('helluvacustomsuits_tooltip')},{localize('helluvacustomsuits_tooltip2')}},},``````helluvacustomsuits_tooltip = "Changes suit names.", helluvacustomsuits_tooltip2 = "Clubs = Moons, Diamonds = Mammons, Spades = Crowns.",

[urban wasp]

goddammit i'm cooked

[red flower]

that's not the format i said

[high verge]

Wait

Yeah I just noticed the difference

Now it works, thanks N!

Is it possible to have the tooltip show when hovering over the actual toggle button as well?

[urban wasp]

i'll just like repost again in case there's a wizard that can solve this
some and only some of my editions' labels are fucked and just have a red background with "ERROR" on them
here's one of the editions maybe i did something wrong

SMODS.Edition {
    key = "really_negative",
    weight = 0.3,
    shader = false,
    in_shop = true,
    extra_cost = 5,
    get_weight = function(self)
        return G.GAME.edition_rate * self.weight
    end,
    config = { card_limit = 3 },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue)
        return { vars = { self.config.card_limit } }
    end,
    crp_credits = {
        idea = { "PurplePickle" },
        code = { "wilfredlam0418" }
    }
}

...
    misc = {
        ...
        labels = {
            ...
            crp_really_negative = "Really Negative",
            ...
        }
    }
...

[high verge]

    key = 'tarotsHELLUVA',
    set = 'Tarot',
    path = 'helluvatarots.png',
    loc_txt = { name = 'Helluva Tarot Cards',},
    display_pos = 'c_star',
    original_sheet = true,
    localization = true
})``` ```descriptions = {
        alt_texture = {
            alt_tex_hbp_tarotsHELLUVA = {
                c_chariot={
                    name="Stella",
                    text={
                        "This {C:attention}bitch{} enhances",
                        "{C:attention}#1#{} selected card",
                        "into a {C:attention}#2#",
                    },},},},}```

I'm trying to set up alt text for a malverk texture so it only shows when the texture is actually on but for some reason it's not working.

[high verge]

I know for seals I had to add _seal at the end so maybe you need to add _edition to it

[daring fern]

No.

That's for seals only.

[high verge]

Seals have to be special

Does anything stand out to you as wrong for my malverk alt texture localization?

It was the loc_txt disabling it

[vocal helm]

Another quick thing; I'm trying to make all the cards in shop reduce in value and do the little "juice" animation, and while they go down in value correctly, they're not playing the animation correctly. I don't know if the return value of my function is correct since I'm mostly copying this over from another Joker of mine, but what would I do to get that effect?

-- jokers
            for index, shop_card in ipairs(G.shop_jokers.cards) do
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    trigger = 'after',
                    delay = 0.1,
                    func = function()
                        shop_card.cost = math.max(0, shop_card.cost - card.ability.extra.price_reduction)
                        return {
                            message = "Reduced!",
                            colour = G.C.EDITION,
                            message_card = shop_card
                        }
                    end
                }))
            end

[red flower]

returns like that dont work inside an event

[urban wasp]

idhushdishdh i was about to be like “yay my solution was solved” and then its just

[red flower]

try using SMODS.calculate_effect({message = "Reduced!", colour = G.C.EDITION,}, shop_card)

[vocal helm]

Alrighty, thanks!
Should I just return true in that case or do I not need to return anything at all

[red flower]

yes return true or the event will keep repeating

[vocal helm]

alright, thanks!

-# also real quick is there a handy place I can find all the vanilla sound names

[daring fern]

Yes, resources/sounds in the extracted exe

[keen atlas]

sup, is it possible to have the hello text to be anchored to the bottom of the column?
(the code is what i tried)

[urban saddle]

Heyo - I'm sure you all get this all the time and sorry, I tried searching around.

I'm just trying to make a silly little surprise texture pack for my SO - I'm not good at programming (just a graphic designer here 😐 ), so sorry in advance!

Using emihead's template.

It's been working great for me so far, but now that I'm on to "Enhancers" and they refuse to load. I tried to search here and the internet and can't find out why. It's likely because I'm, uh, not the smartest cookie.

This is the line from emiheads lua

local sprite_enhancers = SMODS.Sprite:new("centers", tpt_mod.path, "Enhancers.png", 71, 95, "asset_atli")

Thanks for any help, and sorry again!

[daring fern]

SMODS.Sprite doesn't exist.

[urban saddle]

That is a bit confusing. The other textures are working and seem to use the same structure. Bleh.

[faint yacht]

Did you mean just Sprite(...)?
Alternatively, use the SMODS.Atlas registration with raw_key set to true?

[daring fern]

SMODS.Sprite existed in an extremely old version though.

[urban saddle]

I'm sorry, I'm really not sure. I'm just trying to make a texture pack for their birthday and I thought it was simple enough when it just seemed to work until I got here.

Is there an updated template I can use? I'm just trying to replace the textures, literally nothing fancy.

[daring fern]

Yes, Malverk

[urban saddle]

I was looking at that and... well, maybe I'm stupid but that seems complex and I have all the images placed and ready to go this was the last step. Thanks for the help, I'll try to figure it out.

[high verge]

I don't suppose there's an easy way to mass rename all suits in the game?

I'm manually changing them in my localization for a mod but it doesn't currently cover ones that are variables in cards.

[daring fern]

No, there isn't.

[high verge]

So, no there isn't.

👍

[wild escarp]

How would I check when a joker destroys itself? I'm guessing a hook into Card:remove(), but I don't know what I'd do in there.
