add next(SMODS.find_card("j_modprefix_jokerkey")) to the if statement
that'll make it only trigger if you have that joker
wispy falcon
that'll make it only trigger if you have that joker
And what would I need to add into the if statement to make it be both suits?
stiff locust
nothing
the card is still its original suit, and will pass is_suit checks for its original suit
all we are doing is, when the card is checked to be Spades, making it set to true regardless of the card's original suit
this won't get in the way of any other suit checks on the card
just don't do return false if your check fails
if you did that, it would override the original suit check
wispy falcon
Would I just use suit == "Spades" in my joker then to make that work?
stiff locust
nope
your joker doesn't have to do anything
the suit argument is what is passed into the is_suit function for which suit to check
is_suit("Spades") returns true if the card is spades
your joker could have zero calculate code and this would still work, it just has to exist to trigger the effect
wispy falcon
Kinda funny
stiff locust
yeah it works out that way sometimes
wispy falcon
Would other jokers trigger on the cards too? Like the one's that give mult if the card is spades, for example?
stiff locust
yep
it affects ALL suit checks
which includes scoring
it could score in a spades flush
unless the effect is coded to check card.base.suit specifically
(in this case they'd be actively trying to avoid things like smeared joker anyway, so it's fine)
but pretty much every modded effect should use is_suit
wispy falcon
Okay and if I wanted to make it be noticable on the card with like an effect/shader/info_queue I would do that in the joker or where?
And how?
slim ferry
Just say it in the description?
stiff locust
yeah the joker's description is good enough for vanilla standard
slim ferry
That should be enough to convey the information usually
stiff locust
smeared joker doesn't have any additional visuals
so your card doesn't need them either
stiff locust
alright
@wispy falcon i forgot something
you should add and not SMODS.has_no_suit(self) to the if check
so it doesn't trigger on cards with no suit i.e stone cards
unless you want it to do that?
up to you
wispy falcon
Gonna think about that but thank you for telling me
wispy falcon
so your card doesn't need them either
Okay, so with the following code it should make Wrathful Joker give mult even on a club, diamond or heart when I have my joker, right?
function Card:is_suit(suit, bypass_debuff, flush_calc)
-- Code before
print("Before :O")
local ret = card_is_suit_ref(self, suit, bypass_debuff, flush_calc)
-- Code after
if self.base.suit and suit == "Spades" and next(SMODS.find_card("j_cstorm_joker_the_riveter")) and not SMODS.has_no_suit(self) then
print("Check worked >W<")
end
return ret
end
SMODS.Joker {
key = "joker_the_riveter",
pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
rarity = "cstorm_chatter",
cost = 15,
blueprint_compat = false,
eternal_compat = true,
unlocked = true,
discovered = false,
--atlas = "chatters",
}```yep
wait
you need to return true if the check passes
that's what makes it actually work
wispy falcon
Damn, that's why it didn't do anything
stiff locust
👍
wispy falcon
Now I know how hooking works but I still don't get what suit == "Spades" does. In my eyes it would check if the suit is spades, which it isn't so it is wrong
Like, in my eyes I would need to make it suit ~= "Spades" to make it work
stiff locust
Now I know how hooking works but I still don't get what `suit == "Spades"` does....
suit is the argument put into the function is_suit when checking for a suit
card:is_suit("Spades") should be true if the card is spades suit
the "Spades" is a function argument
which is referred to as suit inside the function
suit == "Spades" makes it so you only override suit checks for Spades specfically
otherwise, it would override the suit checks for any suit
wispy falcon
Ohh, I think I understand it now
Damn, hooking and patching is so useful when modding this game
stiff locust
it really is
you can hook any context for anything apparently by the way
on top of these other functions
ive always found lovely patching to be more annoying to deal with anyway
ocean sinew
Guys It's not hooking
I'm saying this the 932903290130193th time 🤓
It's called making a upvalue of a lua function
wispy falcon
you can hook any context for anything apparently by the way
I don't know how I would use that for something but that seems nice to have
stiff locust
it might come up one day
frosty rampart
lovely patching is a lot of overhead, but it's still preferable when you just want to insert a line of code in the middle of a function or something. i do try to use hooks over patches whenever possible tho
ocean sinew
If you want to do hooking you need to do debug.sethook according to the 23.2 page of the official lua documentary https://www.lua.org/pil/23.2.html 🤓

I hate searching through the code to find the exact place of a function that I need to patch

how can I check if a pool exists
an smods.objecttype or whatever it's supposed to be called
if <key of objecttype> is returning nil
rotund sable
`if <key of objecttype>` is returning nil
Did you try SMODS.ObjectTypes[...]?
stiff locust
what
will that return true if it exists
alright i'm really close to the thing i wanna do
but something is going wrong
rotund sable
will that return true if it exists
It's a table of all the object types
stiff locust
cards["j_gros_michel"] = true would be the same as cards = { j_gros_michel = true }, right?
chrome widget
The former would error if cards wasn't already previously declared as a table
The latter is declaring a new table with the single key mapping in it
stiff locust
well yeah
assuming cards exists as an empty table
these would both result in the same outcome
wintry solar
sure
stiff locust
okay
yeah i'm lost then
i've got a table with a bunch of joker keys in it and I'm trying to convert that into an SMODS.ObjectType pool which contains all of those jokers
and I'm not sure if it is working or not
but when I try to have a booster pack use this pool, it crashes on opening the pack
which doesn't happen if I give the code an SMODS.ObjectType pool which is already set up with ["j_gros_michel"] = true inside its cards argument
so I assumed something was wrong with the pool? and if it's not that diifference then idk what it is

I think I figured it out for real this time
I was using ipairs instead of pairs
progress
got a different crash
it's because of
SMODS.ObjectTypes["cura_curated_pack_pool_" .. value.DisplayName]:inject_card(G.P_CENTERS[value2])
this line
DisplayName exists and value2 is the key of a joker
so I'm not really sure what's going wrong here
oh wait no I know what it is
stiff locust
it's because I changed the application method
but I didn't fully change it
new crash with information in it
i'm lost now
feels like i got closer but it's still not working
the pool isn't empty I'm defining it with splash as a default joker so it doesn't break anything
so I don't know why it's complaining about empty pool
red flower
i think the default is not actually inserted into the pool
stiff locust
well it is
for _, value in pairs(Curator.joker_table) do
if value.Jokers then
SMODS.ObjectType({
key = "cura_curated_pack_pool_" .. value.DisplayName,
default = "j_splash", ---I like splash way more than jimbo
cards = {
["j_splash"] = true
}
})
for index, value2 in pairs(value.Jokers) do
print("c")
SMODS.ObjectTypes["cura_curated_pack_pool_" .. value.DisplayName]:inject_card(G.P_CENTERS[value2])
end
end
end
current code block
OH RIGHT
it has to be = true
my mistake
red flower
yeah
red flower
i dont think that was the problem tho
stiff locust
yeah it did the same crash
red flower
a pool can be empty when you inject cards, that crash is usually because it cant find it
stiff locust
how would it not be able to find it
the concatenated keys should be the same for both instances here
🙃
red flower
i tried something similar and it just seems like it doesnt like creating and inserting into an objecttype at runtime
or at least not immediately
stiff locust
this code is being run when a run begins
in game:start_run hook
cause I thought it might miss some jokers if I did it during initialization unless my mod loads last
red flower
if you do it in a hook the load order doesnt matter
stiff locust
yeah thats the idea
and it doesn't miss any jokers that way but is that what's making it crash
red flower
no i mean in a hook on initialization, i think creating objecttypes at the start of the run is probably not good lol
stiff locust
oh
stiff locust
so how do I make it not crash
red flower
oh i found it i think
try doing SMODS.ObjectTypes["cura_curated_pack_pool_" .. value.DisplayName]:inject() before the last loop
stiff locust
mk
it seems to have worked
no crash starting a run
holy shit it works
this is amazing
thank you n the balatro game
I now have a pack that only contains jokers from a randomly selected mod
that is 2/3rds of the content
red flower
letsgo
stiff locust
now I need to make a text input
so I can make a pack where you can select a mod for it to pull from
ui code 😭
stiff locust
it shouldnt be too bad yeah
i also want it to recreate the text input if you put in an invalid mod ID
or one which is on the blacklist
but that's the easy part
stiff locust
alright
where can I find a UI popup text input
that isn't from cryptid's POINTER://
that's the only one I know
I want it to be like pointer but cryptid's code confuses and overwhelms me
hardy viper
i think you just do the
create_uibox_generic_definition() or whatever that function is called and call G.overlay_menu with that
or some Shit
hardy viper
oh
stiff locust
i got my config UI from somewhere and copy pasted it into all my mods that use config
stiff locust
i'll still look at the pointer code just in case it's somehow readable
hardy viper
i think it was fine
stiff locust
it doesn't look tooooooooo bad

how do I display a deck when you do an achievement? Similarly to how the vanilla game does it by displaying the deck you unlocked on the side. IIRC it replaces the trophy icon. Not sure if it was just a static image or a full on deck tho so i could be making shit up

how do I change a specific blind's size other than using G.GAME.blind.chips = G.GAME.blind.chips / 2?
stiff locust
yeah no i can't figure out UIbox
rotund sable
What's the thing you don't understand
stiff locust
yes
-# all of it
rotund sable
What do you want to use it for
stiff locust
I want it to allow you to input a mod ID when you click on my booster pack
the booster pack will then create jokers from the mod whose ID you put in
rotund sable
Oh so you want a general UI thing
stiff locust
I have all of the other code working I just need a UI box where you can type in a value
I can hook card:click() for a trigger to make the UI box appear so it's
just the UI box code
rotund sable
I'm not sure if a text input or just a few buttons would work better
stiff locust
the ideal solution would be to open a list of every mod that has jokers
and let the player click on a mod
rotund sable
Oh damn
stiff locust
but I don't know how to do that in a concise and readable way
and UI code confuses me in general
rotund sable
I don't know how to do that too
robust marsh
how do I change a specific blind's size other than using G.GAME.blind.chips = G....
Why are you looking for a different way to do it?
stiff locust
how do I change a specific blind's size other than using G.GAME.blind.chips = G....
G.GAME.blind.chips = math.floor(G.GAME.blind.chips - G.GAME.blind.chips * 0.5)
G.GAME.blind.chip_text = number_format(G.GAME.blind.chips)
idk what your problem is with that code but this is the code I use to change blind size mid-blind
math.floor +0.5 rounds it cause decimals are ugly
hushed field
The best thing you can do when figuring out UI is to figure out each step of the process separately. It's not complicated, but the way UI works is very obscured due to it being such a giant chain of functions

hushed field
Not really, there is definitely info out there, but it's not that great at helping with more complex UI
rotund sable
more complex no
hushed field
The issue with it, in my experience, is that most people that have made complicated UI things still don't feel comfortable enough with writing documentation, because there's so many asterixes to keep in mind.
Making UI pop up is a doable step, though
Making UI have you type in an entry is also doable
stiff locust

its fairly similar to html from what ive seen, theres a ton of very far nested things but thats about it. you just need to know how to read it to get started
stiff locust
I can do normalising and verifying the input later but I just
don't know where to start on the UI box
hushed field
I really recommend trying to find the minimal functionality that you can test, and just try and get that working first. That's how I've started with more complex UI stuff. What's the specific stuff with UIBox you're running into?
stiff locust
cryptid's pointer didn't really help, when I tried to use code in its format it gave me cryptid crashes as if it was running cryptid code
hushed field
As UIbox is basically just a container that gets drawn on the screen that you can stuff with UI nodes
stiff locust
I haven't gotten very far at all
rotund sable
making a popup is as simple as
G.FUNCS.overlay_menu({

})
attempted to repurpose pointer code and got startup crashes that were located inside cryptid's code.lua file
I don't even use cryptid in my mods
rotund sable
where the definition is the table crap
hushed field
Cryptid's generally a bad mod to base things off of. The newer code that's more conventional still really relies on older code that does stuff you don't need to do that's just there to make things more complicated, haha

frosty rampart

here's what i do, replace "expo_ecalc" with "add"

stiff locust
you can copy the examples and put it in the definition
nothing is happening still
I put the example node into the definition
function Curator.create_uibox_selector(card)

config = { align = "cm", padding = 0.1 },
nodes = {
{ n = G.UIT.T, config = { text = "Hello, world!", colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_LIGHT, scale = 0.5 } }
}
}
}
})
end
the screen shakes again but it doesn't come up with anything
i assume it's either closing instantly or not opening at all but it's trying to do something
keen atlas
most of the time i use create_UIBox_generic_options to deal with popup-related stuff. it might not fit what you need, but it works. here's an example
G.FUNCS.overlay_menu({
definition = create_UIBox_generic_options({
contents = {
{ n = G.UIT.R, config = { minw = 1, minh = 1, colour = G.C.WHITE } } --- Creates a white box
}
})
})
from this i can conclude I was using definition wrong
keen atlas
```lua
function Curator.create_uibox_selector(card)
G.FUNCS.overlay_menu({

there is text on the screen
the documentation has an example for buttons they don't seem so bad
question is how do I detect when a button is pressed
red flower
<@&1133519078540185692>
keen atlas
question is how do I detect when a button is pressed
make a G.FUNCS.my_function function. in your ui node / UIBox_button, add button = 'my_function'
stiff locust
ahh
so that function runs when you press the button named that
UI code really wasn't as bad as I thought lol
wintry solar
it just looks daunting but it's not too bad to make simple things with
keen atlas
yes
stiff locust
mk
the hard part is making it look like an actual balatro menu
new thing
i want those boxes to be centered
keen atlas
try adding an align = 'cm' in your dark node
wintry solar
you should also add r = 0.1, emboss = true to them if they're buttons iirc
stiff locust
what do those values do
keen atlas
you can see what the values does in the documentation https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/UI-Guide#node-configuration
keen atlas
yep
stiff locust
well
slim ferry
what does contrast do in ease_background_colour?
lost spruce
is this balanced enough
keen atlas
but they are missing a few things
what's missing?
stiff locust
the buttons don't look like buttons (that can wait) and I want them to close the UI when pressed
also there's no text appearing on them but I did put text nodes there
keen atlas
to close the overlay, call G.FUNCS.exit_overlay_menu()
keen atlas
also there's no text appearing on them but I did put text nodes there
can you show part of the ui code?
stiff locust
{
n = G.UIT.R,

config = { minw = 1, minh = 1, colour = HEX("3a5055"), padding = 0.15 },
nodes = {
{
n = G.UIT.C,
config = { button = "cura_confirm", r = 0.1, emboss = 0.05 },
nodes = {
{ n = G.UIT.T, config = { text = localize("k_cura_confirm"), color = HEX("FFFFFF") } }
}

nodes = {
{ n = G.UIT.T, config = { text = localize("k_cura_last_confirm"), color = HEX("FFFFFF") } }
}
}
}
}
}
}
these are the button nodes right now
keen atlas
text nodes need a scale attribute
stiff locust
oh right
the text is now appearing
and I want the text to be centered
it's too high up right now
keen atlas
add align = 'cm' again. in this case try adding it in the node with colour = HEX("3a5055")
keen atlas
cm means center middle, it does both
stiff locust
gotcha
frosty rampart
as per the smods ui guide:
stiff locust
this is getting somewhere
the buttons work and close the UI as they should, issue is you can press esc to close the menu without putting anything in
I'm not exactly against that but I'd want it to unhighlight everything if you do
because this is a UI box that will activate when you click on a pack, and said pack requires this input or it'll crash when obtained
I know how to unhighlight, but how do I figure out if they closed the UI box with esc?
if it unhighlights on exit, then you can't buy the pack (or pick it from a MultiPack or such) without putting anything in
which solves the crash
but I can't have it unhighlight on exit for everything, because then it'll do that on the buttons and you can never buy the pack
does esc just call G.FUNCS.exit_overlay_menu()
keen atlas
yeah

why does this keep saying "attempt to compare number with table" on the line with "if discriminant >= 0 then" ```calculate = function(self, card, context)
if context.joker_main then
local a = G.GAME.current_round.hands_left or 0
local b = G.GAME.current_round.discards_left or 0
local c = G.GAME.dollars or 0
local sol1, sol2 = 1, 1
if a ~= 0 then
local discriminant = b*b - 4*a*c
print(string.format("[Quadratic Joker] a=%d, b=%d, c=%d, discriminant=%d", a, b, c, discriminant))
if discriminant >= 0 then``` and it's because of G.GAME.dollars, when doing eval G.GAME.dollars in the console it prints the number just fine but when trying to use it to calculate it breaks everything, and if i do tonumber(G.GAME.dollars) it returns 0 for some reason

ah
okay it works now
wonderful
the buttons need one more functionality thing
okay well
the text misaligned itself I can align it I know how to do that
but now clicking the buttons works anywhere in the box instead of just on the text
keen atlas
is everything working?
stiff locust
not quite
there is 1 functionality thing I have left to do
which is to turn the white box in the center into a text input
(i also need to center the text on the buttons and the title)
(putting align = "cm" in the text nodes didn't work, but I needed to resize the buttons to fill the boxes to make them easier to click, and that broke the alignment)
i'm guessing I have to put an additional empty node
which is centered inside the button
and then put the text inside that?
keen atlas
which is to turn the white box in the center into a text input
use a create_text_input function. provide a ref_table and ref_value where the value will go to.
you can see more options for that function here https://github.com/frostice482/balatro-lsp/blob/master/functions/UI_definitions.lua#L244
keen atlas
replace the white input box node with the create_text_input one
keen atlas
yes, its a function, you call it
stiff locust
where in the node do I call it
keen atlas

carmine osprey
thx
stiff locust
use a `create_text_input` function. provide a `ref_table` and `ref_value` where ...
so what is ref_table supposed to be
ref_value is the place where the value goes after it has been entered I can get that much
red flower
because of the way lua works the functions need to get a value from a table by doing ref_table[ref_value]
keen atlas
so what is `ref_table` supposed to be
its a table where the value will go to. ref_value is the attribute name.
example:
local data = {}
create_text_input({ ref_table = data, ref_value = 'input' })
you then access it later with data.input
stiff locust
```lua
{ ..., nodes = { create_text_input(...) } }
```
and what's hooked_colour for
the rest I can get the idea of
keen atlas
its the background color to set when typing
stiff locust
mk
keen atlas
you might not need it, its not required
stiff locust
i'll put one in and see if I like the way it looks
new crash
current UI code
I put both buttons inside an extra node to try to center their text but also added the text input
keen atlas
i got that crash too when trying.
so you'll need to provide initial string value for your ref_table, an empty string will work
stiff locust
okay
keen atlas
its a table where the value will go to. ref_value is the attribute name.
example...
in this case, local data = { input = '' }
stiff locust
well the text didn't center on the two buttons but the input works now
and I want the enter mod ID text to also be centered but it's not doing that either
functionally speaking this is all working now
and this is amazing

Set the align of the button
stiff locust
I did
it has align = "cm"
wait no it doesn't
you're so right
that aligned the text

and this is amazing
i'd recommend making your button uis a function so you can maintain it easier
stiff locust
now I gotta make the buttons looks like balatro buttons
stiff locust
i'd recommend making your button uis a function so you can maintain it easier
how do I go about that
wintry solar
now I gotta make the buttons looks like balatro buttons
Just put a colour on that column node that is your button
stiff locust
oh also the Enter Mod ID text doesn't appear until you click into the text input box?
keen atlas
how do I go about that
i would take out these button structure and put it in a function, since mostly it is a repeated structure. the only difference is the button and the button text. you can make it as a function parameter
its up to you
stiff locust
I should really do that in case I want to use buttons in the future again (I do)
do I just copy that code block into a function and swap out the button key and text for function inputs?
wintry solar
I hate expanded UI code so much lol
stiff locust
is it that easy
i wanted to condense it, but vscode keeps expanding it every time I click format document
so I just kinda let it be
wintry solar
smh using auto formatting instead of just formatting correctly yourself
keen atlas
is it that easy
im not sure about that one
stiff locust
auto formatting saves me so much time
keen atlas
but, it would look something like:
stiff locust
I see
keen atlas
this is just advice from someone who doesn't like nesting while also maintained big ui code 😅
stiff locust
it's really nice to have them in functions
this mod probably won't use any other buttons but I will use my satanic user interface manifesting abilities for other shenanigans later
yeah that made the code I have to look at way smaller
maiden phoenix
What are you cooking Marie?
stiff locust
a mod that has packs which contain jokers from specific mods
maiden phoenix
Ooh neat
stiff locust
it has some packs which choose random mods and I'm making a UI where you can input a chosen mod for a more expensive pack
maiden phoenix
How do you know which mod the booster has?
stiff locust
gotta do a bit more polish and then actually make pack art
stiff locust
How do you know which mod the booster has?
it says so on its info_queue
maiden phoenix
Neat
stiff locust
it's selected during set_ability if it's random
otherwise it is selected in the UI box when you click on the selector pack
the hardest part about this mod is going to be the pack art
maiden phoenix
Making every pack SDM_0's Stuff one 💪 🔥
stiff locust
tbch
I still need to normalise the entered value and check it against the blacklist
but that's not so bad
I also need to exclude legendaries
-# putting that in a config
right now I gotta figure out why the top text node won't show up until you click into the text entry field
keen atlas
the enter mod id one?
stiff locust
yeah
keen atlas
oh thats weird
stiff locust
i just made the buttons look a million times better
the space for the text is still there
but the text doesn't appear until I click the text box
maiden phoenix
Mystery mod
keen atlas
the space for the text is still there
you can remove minw and minh
keen atlas
nevermind, i thought you meant the spacing was too large
stiff locust
the spacing is fine
it's just that the Enter Mod ID text does not appear until you click the text entry field
keen atlas
i have no clue currently
stiff locust
🤔
keen atlas
try adding G.OVERLAY_MENU:recalculate() after G.FUNCS.overlay_menu(...)
stiff locust
here?
keen atlas
no, at the bottom
G.FUNCS.overlay_menu({
-- stuff
})
G.OVERLAY_MENU:recalculate()
keen atlas
trust
stiff locust
mk
that worked
I think that's everything then
I might change the button colors or give them an outline I'll mess with the styling
functiionality wise it's all good
I appreciate all the help on the UI
it really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be though
stiff locust
it looked bad in code
keen atlas
yeah
carmine chasm
this just makes ankh not delete any joker's instead of any other joker type can someone tell me why for k, v in pairs(deletable_jokers) do if v ~= chosen_joker and v.config.center.id ~= chosen_joker.config.center.id then v:start_dissolve(nil, _first_dissolve) _first_dissolve = true end end
red flower
it's v.config.center.key
carmine chasm
thanks
carmine chasm
it's `v.config.center.key`
now it's just vanilla ankh
red flower
what's the code
carmine chasm
the entire ankh code or this snippet?
red flower
this snippet with what you changed
carmine chasm
it's ``` for k, v in pairs(deletable_jokers) do
if v ~= chosen_joker and v.config.center.key ~= chosen_joker.config.center.id then
v:start_dissolve(nil, _first_dissolve)
_first_dissolve = true
end
end
did you also change chosen_joker.config.center.id to chosen_joker.config.center.key
red flower
the other id should be key too

other_card is usually for scoring related effects

You can use play_sound to play the glass sound during it's destruction ig

it was easiest to just make it splash for every pool

Should be G.P_CENTERS["key"].rarity which should give the rarity as a number value.

thank you

wild berry
how should i make my psuedorandom seeds work
because i want the jokers' effects to remain consistent along one seed
but still be able to spit out a "random" value on new seeds
frosty dock
that's... usually how things work
stiff locust
pseudorandom is made to respect seeds yeah
wild berry
no like
stiff locust
you don't need to do anything fancy with the seed
the seed entered into pseudorandom is for the pseudorandom function to use
stiff locust
it shouldn't be doing that
idle plaza
ive entered just one seed and it always gave one value
What does your code look like right now? Or at least the part where you use pseudorandom.
frosty dock
you should use a string as seed
wild berry
oh
frosty dock
it gets converted to a number but also accepts numbers directly
stiff locust
how would I make a card:click() hook activate only when you select something and not when you deselect it
i already have it activating when you click on a specific thing

How would I make a consumable that does +50% on a selected joker's chips?
frosty rampart
i feel like we've explained something similar to this to you before
joker value manipulation is not an easy task, especially if you want to edit a specific config variable. you can make assumptions about where the joker's +Chips is stored, but someone could come along and have a joker where they store the chips in card.ability.extra.obnoxious and you can't do shit about that
