[rocky plaza]

can i see what u are doing with multiple mod calculates

[broken rivet]

sure hold on

i feel like the scoring parameter text might also be an issue?

unsure

[rocky plaza]

maybe

i mean i dont really feel a need to optimize stuff unless it goes below 60 fps for me

[broken rivet]

fair i just noticed big lag spikes that felt kinda bad

[rocky plaza]

hmm well i notice them in the video when selecting cards and pressing play

[broken rivet]

yea

i did have handy and talisman i guess?

[rocky plaza]

i mean since i see expo chips i'd assume ur using talisman's exp chips

[broken rivet]

nope

[rocky plaza]

huh
ur own implementation?

[broken rivet]

mine works without talisman

although it switches to talisman's when it's installed

[rocky plaza]

i think theres a performance profiler in debug +

so you can maybe look there?

[broken rivet]

maybe

How do you manually set the rotation of a UIbox? I've tried changing the transform rotation but that doesn't appear to be doing anyting

[frosty rampart]

set up my dice mod to do the new text-on-cards stuff i figured out
i need to adjust the timing obviously, and i also need to figure out how to dynamically center the text if it ends up being 2 or 3 digits, but otherwise it's looking very nice

and now i don't need a 101-sprite-wide atlas lmao

[stone dagger]

hello when I leave the game and return to it my variable is filled with these values. What is this? I expected nulls I could do a if for do I make a val == "MANUAL_REPLACE"? xD

or how can I make a on_load function to reset this var to {}

[daring fern]

It means you put something with a metatable in a place that is saved.

Which includes cards.

[stone dagger]

indeed I had cards saved

[daring fern]

What is the goal?

[stone dagger]

I have a joker that destroys a hand and then recreates it

I save the destroyed cards

to recreate those cards

[daring fern]

Yes, you would have to use Card:save and Card:load

[stone dagger]

so I would save a card when adding it to the table, but then how would I load it?

[daring fern]

Card:load

[stone dagger]

fair enough, was talking about how to use the method but I've looked at the code now xD

[pseudo furnace]

How would I set a random rank to pick for a joker, but make it never change at end of round?

[plucky berry]

probably using a local set to false, make it select the rank only when it's false and then make it true in the same function

[pseudo furnace]

When do I run this?

[plucky berry]

can i see your code

[broken rivet]

ok i think the issue was this running literally every single frame

[pseudo furnace]

I did the other parts except for this cuz idk how

I'm trying to do smth like mail-in rebate but the rank never changes

Is there a context to run this like on buy or something?

[chrome widget]

Added minecraft splash screen quotes for funsies

[frosty rampart]

a separate add_to_deck function in your joker

[crystal perch]

I have an issue where if I have multiple copies of the same joker and that joker uses pseudorandom_element as part of its calc func, all copies will have the same outcome

is there a way i can make them all have different outcomes while still using seeded pseudorandom_element?

[daring fern]

Code?

[plucky berry]

local function reset_vremade_mail_rank()
    
    G.GAME.current_round.vremade_mail_card = { rank = 'Ace' }
    local valid_mail_cards = {}
    for _, playing_card in ipairs(G.playing_cards) do
        if not SMODS.has_no_rank(playing_card) then
            valid_mail_cards[#valid_mail_cards + 1] = playing_card
        end
    end
    local mail_card = pseudorandom_element(valid_mail_cards, 'vremade_mail' .. G.GAME.round_resets.ante)
    if mail_card and yourlocal = false then
        G.GAME.current_round.vremade_mail_card.rank = mail_card.base.value
        G.GAME.current_round.vremade_mail_card.id = mail_card.base.id
        yourlocal = true
    end
end

i think something like that should work

[crystal perch]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.before and next(context.poker_hands['Three of a Kind']) then
            local non_awakened_jokers = {}
            for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do -- Non-awakened jokers into a table
                if not G.jokers.cards[i].ability.chak_awakened then
                    non_awakened_jokers[#non_awakened_jokers + 1] = G.jokers.cards[i]
                end
            end
            if #non_awakened_jokers ~= 0 then
                local chosen_joker = pseudorandom_element(non_awakened_jokers, 'chak_trinity') -- Pick rand non-awakened
                CHAK_UTIL.use_consumable_animation(card, chosen_joker, function()
                        chosen_joker:add_sticker('chak_awakened', true)
                        play_sound('gold_seal', 1.2, 0.4)
                        return true
                    end
                )
                return {
                    message = 'Awaken, my love!',
                    colour = G.C.CHAK_STICKER_AWAKENED
                }
            end
        end
    end,

[plucky berry]

it's the code for mir

[crystal perch]

tl;dr apply a sticker to jokers without that sticker

[plucky berry]

lmk if you find out i have the same issue with an edition

[frosty rampart]

no what
don't do that
just put an add_to_deck function in the joker
the code in that function will run once upon obtaining the joker

[plucky berry]

yeah that's better

im tryna help but i started coding like two weeks ago just for balatro modding

my code is a mess

[frosty rampart]

although actually if you want it to have its value decided already in the shop, do set_ability instead (that runs once upon creating an instance of the joker)

[crystal perch]

any ideas?

[daring fern]

Have you tried adding card.sort_id to the seed?

[crystal perch]

how so?

[daring fern]

pseudorandom_element(non_awakened_jokers, 'chak_trinity'..card.sort_id)

[crystal perch]

ill try

[crystal perch]

that worked thank you

[crystal perch]

@plucky berry this solution worked

[feral tree]

is there literally ANY documentation on SMODS.JimboQuip by now?

[frosty rampart]

there's been some in the 0827 changelog since the feature released

[daring fern]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/discussions/919

[feral tree]

YES

is it possible to disable the base game quips?

[pseudo furnace]

Looking good, but for some reason it tells me my G.GAME... variable is nil, how do I fix this?

[plucky berry]

check for G.GAME existing i guess

if G.GAME and etx

[pseudo furnace]

wait actually it can't call global 'functionname' now

[fluid steppe]

so im trying to use SMODS.blueprint_effect() to copy a random playing card from the deck

it's uh. not returning anything

[daring fern]

Yes, SMODS.blueprint_effect is for jokers.

[fluid steppe]

well yeah but

here

local random_seed = (G.GAME and G.GAME.pseudorandom.seed or "") .. "." .. "hypr_junkdrawer"
local triggercard = G.deck.cards[math.ceil(pseudorandom(pseudoseed(random_seed))*#G.deck.cards)]
if not triggercard then return {message = "Empty Deck!"} end
local effect = SMODS.blueprint_effect(card, triggercard, {main_scoring = true, cardarea = G.play})
if not effect then return {message="Failsafe?!"} end
card:juice_up(0.3,0.4)
return effect
--returns {Message="Failsafe?!"}

i got it to work Once and i have no idea what i did

[daring fern]

local other_card = pseudorandom_element(G.deck.cards, "hypr_junkdrawer")
local eval = eval_card(other_card, {cardarea = G.play, main_scoring = true})
local effects = {}
if eval.playing_card then table.insert(effects, eval.playing_card) end
if eval.enhancement then table.insert(effects, eval.enhancement) end
if eval.end_of_round then table.insert(effects, eval.end_of_round) end
if next(effects) then
    return SMODS.merge_effects(effects)
end

[fluid steppe]

eval_card exists???

[daring fern]

Yes.

[wispy falcon]

How do I use eval to spawn a Joker with an edition?

[daring fern]

SMODS.add_card({set = "Joker", edition = 'e_modprefix_key'})

[wispy falcon]

Thank you :3

[muted trout]

trying to make the joker display Charm Tag! when it creates a charm tag but it's not doing so

[daring fern]

Yes, k_charm_tag_ex doesn't exist.

[muted trout]

is there a way to make it exist or is it just hardcoded

[tepid crow]

add a localization entry for it

[fluid steppe]

actually

hold on

i have a better idea

use the localization of the charm tag

one sec while i figure out how

do message = G.localization.descriptions.Tag['tag_charm'].name.."!"

@muted trout

[muted trout]

oh tysm

it's not showing still but i thinkk i'll just not have a message

[daring fern]

Yes, move it out of the event.

[muted trout]

trying to also show a message for this joker, im getting around to fixing it again

[true jasper]

<@&1133519078540185692>

[muted trout]

ykw nvm im keeping it messageless

[unkempt bronze]

bump 3

[fluid steppe]

suit has to be capitalized, like 'Spades' or 'bunc_Fleurons'

[unkempt bronze]

it's a local variable, meant to store a random suit

those, to my knowledge, need not capitalization

[fluid steppe]

how does it search for said random suit

[muted trout]

is someone able to tell me why a message wouldn't be displayed here??????

[unkempt bronze]

            print(suit)```
Like this!

And that part works

[fluid steppe]

that gives. a table

do pseudorandom_element(SMODS.Suits, 'aniceoutfit').key

[unkempt bronze]

Well, the suit's just giving one, but it's not applying it still

want the whole consumable code?

[fluid steppe]

no im good

[muted trout]

does the message have to be in the return?

[fluid steppe]

oh
yea

[unkempt bronze]

to change the rank, should I do a similar thing?

Like, swap out suit with rank?

[fluid steppe]

assert() is a function returns its given value(s), but throws an error and crashes balatro if said value is nil

[muted trout]

if was directed at me it doesnt work still

[unkempt bronze]

Ah. So, is that a yes I can swap suit with rank (mostly) or no?

[fluid steppe]

yeah but put it 3rd

[unkempt bronze]

I had it like this for some time

                trigger = 'after',
                func = function()
                    SMODS.change_base(card_to_change, suit)
                    return true
                end
               }))
        end```

that... should simplify it

[fluid steppe]

ok both of you im gonna be fr i have no idea why your code is failing and im tired as shit so. im gonna go do something else, probably sleep. sorry

[unkempt bronze]

well, gn!

Might make you a joker or smth

[fluid steppe]

i already have one in my mod dw

[unkempt bronze]

Well, one for mine if you wouldn't mind

[fluid steppe]

nah

[muted trout]

im just keeping this messageless and nonblueprintable atp this code gotta be cursed or smth

[unkempt bronze]

Say, what are you trying to do?

[muted trout]

make a joekr display a message when it produces it's tarot card

but it's not doing that

i may just completely redo the code

[unkempt bronze]

Hmm. I don't know how to help with that barring looking at the bananas in VanillaRemade

anything else?

[muted trout]

nothing else is an issue atm

[unkempt bronze]

Ah

well, gn to you too

[muted trout]

gn

[unkempt bronze]

Actually, I seem to have some details off

local xiferp_up_a_step = SMODS.poll_enhancement({guaranteed = true, type_key = 'shuffletheseed'}) and local xiferp_edition = poll_edition('xiferp_barium', nil, true, true, { 'e_polychrome', 'e_holo', 'e_foil' }) seem to not be pulling anything

[jolly shadow]

replace the fat return with this

return {
  func = function()
    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
      trigger = "after",
      delay = 0.4,
      func = function()
        play_sound('timpani');
        SMODS.add_card { set = 'Tarot' }
        card:juice_up(0.3, 0.5)
        G.GAME.consumeable_buffer = 0
        return true
      end
    }))
  end,
  message = localize('k_plus_tarot')
}

[muted trout]

already scrapped the joker srry

[jolly shadow]

lmao rip

[muted trout]

is there a way to make it so the copied card is glass???

[jolly shadow]

m_glass

common mistake w/ copying from vremade u gotta drop the vremade prefix

[muted trout]

ok ty

[serene granite]

does anyone have the link to the vanilla jokers done in steamodded, i lost that link

[daring fern]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/src/jokers.lua

[serene granite]

omg thank u

also does anyone have like a 2X version of the vanilla joker sprite sheet?

[jolly shadow]

its in the source bro

just extract the exe

[clever coral]

does anybody know how i could make a seal that makes a card trigger a certain amount of times based on how much money you have?

as in it triggers once for every e basically

so at 0 dollars the card is debuffed, at 1 it triggers once, at 10 it triggers twice, etc etc

[static dagger]

check out vanilla remade they have a reimplementation of every card

in this case you can probably look at the red seal implementation, going from something like this

SMODS.Seal {
    key = 'Red',
    pos = { x = 5, y = 4 },
    config = { extra = { retriggers = 1 } },
    badge_colour = G.C.RED,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.repetition then
            return {
                repetitions = card.ability.seal.extra.retriggers,
            }
        end
    end,
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { self.config.extra.retriggers } }
    end
}

to something more like this

SMODS.Seal {
    key = 'money_retrigger',
    pos = { x = 5, y = 4 },
    badge_colour = G.C.RED,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.repetition then
            return {
                -- change the /10 to be / (money per retrigger)
                repetitions = math.floor(G.GAME.dollars / 10),
            }
        end
    end,
}

I have not tested this code but it would probably work

[clever coral]

okok tysm

so the math.floor thing means it'll divide by 10, then do that again and again until it hits 1?

[slim ferry]

math.floor just rounds down

[clever coral]

oh ok, so how would i make it do it based on powers of ten rather than just a retrigger for every $10?

[slim ferry]

repetitions = math.floor(math.log10(G.GAME.dollars))

[clever coral]

ahh ok tyty

also to give the last used tarot card on discard for a seal would i be able to just replace the smods.add_card({ set = 'Tarot' }) line in purple seal with smods.add_card(G.Game.last_tarot) since the fool uses G.Game.Last_tarot_planet to determine the last tarot/planet card right

just this bit here

[daring fern]

No, G.GAME.last_tarot doesn't exist.

Also that's not how you use SMODS.add_card

[clever coral]

how does it work then?

and also what could i use to detect the last used tarot

[mystic river]

use your mod.calculate() in context.using_consumeable to check whether the used consumable was a tarot and if so save its key to G.GAME["a mod specific variable"]

[feral tree]

is it possible to do the opposite of this? making it so glass cards have a higher or lesser chance to shatter?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[feral tree]

how?

[daring fern]

context.mod_probability

[feral tree]

and how do i use context.mod_probability? new stuff i dont know anything about

(go up to that convo, should have some information. And also look at Oops all 6s in vremade, or Union Help in Paperback)

[chrome widget]

a challenge for the tgirls, as a treat

[vocal helm]

YEAHHHHHHH

[chrome widget]

For the record the deck is 6 jacks of the default suits

[vocal helm]

Does it explicitly check if the jacks were turned into queens or is the goal just to get a deck with the same number of queens of the same suits

[chrome widget]

Basically it bans everything that destroys cards, and you auto-lose if you have less than 24 cards or you have any rank except jack or queen

[granite jay]

I want to make a joker that allows Straight Flushes to be made with gaps of up to two ranks, how would I be able to do that?

[daring fern]

You would have to patch get_straight and check if the hand contains a flush, then use a recursive function to get the next ranks of each next rank.

[granite jay]

I mean like, how do I patch that? Ideally to add on the code rather than replace it?

[granite jay]

Thx, will see what I can do with this

[real crown]

Is there a context for after pack opening is concluded?

[granite jay]

I think so considering how red card works, recommend checking vanilla remade

[real crown]

Thank you, I completely forgot about Red Card!

Just checked and it has context.skipping_booster, so not the one

[daring fern]

You mean when the pack is opened or when the pack is closed?

[real crown]

When it's closed

[daring fern]

No, hook G.FUNCS.end_consumeable

[real crown]

Or alternatively a context that goes before setting_blind

[daring fern]

What do you mean?

[real crown]

I want a pack that adds jokers to a pool, the way I have it now is that opening the pack gives eternal negative copies, and setting blind will kill those jokers and add them to the pool
The issue is, if you choose a joker that does stuff at the start of turn or when setting blind, they might trigger even though they're being destroyed, and I want them solely for the reason of having reference jokers to add to the pool

So I meant that when setting blind, it would trigger before anything else that triggers on setting blind, and kill them before they would trigger

[daring fern]

Hook SMODS.calculate_context

[real crown]

Thank you!
I really feel like I should finally learn how hooks work as that seems to be the answer to most stuff, instead of trying everything to have a workaround that doesn't need hooks

[clever coral]

ok that makes sense

[granite jay]

Gonna be honest, I have no idea how to use this as I am still pretty new to modding, sorry.

nevermind, solved the problem

[wispy falcon]

Have you tried using ' instead of "? Sometimes that makes a difference iirc

[unkempt bronze]

First one is error, second is code. I dodn't solve it

Wait, fixed it it seems

[wispy falcon]

Maybe try putting print() at different places in the code to see when it crashes

[unkempt bronze]

Well, I fixed it, so it's fine now

[wispy falcon]

Okay

[unkempt bronze]

(at least it's working as I want it to)

[oak shard]

I just tried using single quotes instead of double quotes, but I still get the same error. As I understand it, the error message says there’s no atlas field for SMODS.Back, but the Steamodded API docs suggest that it should exist.

[wispy falcon]

It says that it can't find the atlas you set, meaning there is no atlas named "Joker"

Oh yeah, I had assumed it wrong. Thanks for the explanation, I needed that since I’m new to Lua.

Ah.

How do I do that?

[daring fern]

No, remove the calculate function.

[unkempt bronze]

And put it all in use or...

[daring fern]

No, put it in your mod calculate

Also you should be doing what Odd Todd does.

[unkempt bronze]

so, put all of the stuff that was in the calculate and put it elsewhere. I- that- That's probably smart...

(I was trying to calculate it in the card itself)

[unkempt bronze]

        local id = context.other_card.get_id()```
like this?

[daring fern]

No, it's context.other_card:get_id()

[faint yacht]

And you can shorten the check to just if context.other_card then.

[unkempt bronze]

How did I miss that typo

: and .

And it doesn't even work as I thought it would

(no +mult per odd card)

[daring fern]

Code?

[unkempt bronze]

SMODS.Consumable {
    key = "cerium",
    set = "xiferp_Element",
    atlas = "Golden_Brick_Road",
    cost = 3,
    pos = { x = 1, y = 7 },
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = true,   
    config = { extra = { yes_is_no = false } },
    keep_on_use = function(self, card)
       return true
    end,
    can_use = function(self, card)   
      if card.ability.extra.yes_is_no == false then
        return true
      end
    end,
    use = function(self, card, area)
       card.ability.extra.yes_is_no = true
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.other_card then
            local id = context.other_card:get_id()
        end
        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
            if (context.other_card:get_id() <= 10 and
                    context.other_card:get_id() >= 0 and
                    context.other_card:get_id() % 2 == 1) or
                (context.other_card:get_id() == 14) then
            if card.ability.extra.yes_is_no == true and (lanthanide_mult or 0) > 0 then
                  lanthanide_mult = (lanthanide_mult or 0) + 20
                local give_mult = lanthanide_mult or 0
                SMODS.destroy_cards(card, nil, nil, true)
                return { mult = give_mult }
            end
        end
    end,
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Cerium',
                text = {
                    'Adds +20 mult per odd card for',
                    'the hand after this is used',
                },
            },
}```
        
I used someone's guide to have it use then destroy after giving mult

(and set up to copy it for more with other cards)

[daring fern]

lanthanide_mult doesn't exist so it will never be greater than 0

[unkempt bronze]

this one.

[unkempt bronze]

I set it to 0 at the start.

it exists

local lanthanide_mult = 0
This is the code for it

[daring fern]

No, local variables aren't saved.

[unkempt bronze]

Well, how else do I set that up so that it does get saved?

[daring fern]

Put it in G.GAME

[unkempt bronze]

ah. so.. local G.GAME.lanthanide_mult = 0

[daring fern]

No, remove local

[unkempt bronze]

G.GAME.lanthanide_mult = 0?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[unkempt bronze]

Any place to put it in the file? (guide says to put it outside of consumables, but inside the file)

[daring fern]

No, it would be inside the consumables.

G.GAME.lanthanide_mult = (G.GAME.lanthanide_mult or 0) + 20

[unkempt bronze]

lemme see

SMODS.Consumable {
    key = "cerium",

            }

 Like this?

[unkempt bronze]

so like that code?

not like that code, it's not giving any mult or destroying itself

Hey friends, I'm working on a joker right now, and I want it to take you back an ante after a boss blind, but only when it's in the leftmost position. How would I get it started?

[daring fern]

if context.modify_ante and context.ante_end and card == G.jokers.cards[1] then
    return {modify = 0}
end

[charred widget]

and that's in the calculate function?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[charred widget]

wait is that it? or is that just how I would start the function

[daring fern]

No, that is everything.

[charred widget]

wow that is a lot more simple than I expected. last time I tried to work it out with y'all we were talking about hooks and all sorts of complicated stuff

Also, is there a way I can make a specific function not copyable by blueprint?

Because I was testing out Arceus and it created TWO copies of Ultra Necrozma when I fused Dawn Wings with Solgaleo

[daring fern]

if not context.blueprint

[charred widget]

ok cool thank you!

[cobalt iron]

I want to make a joker that decreases blind size, when it decreases the blind size though, it isn't displayed. How do I change that?

[charred widget]

Ooh ooh! I think I can help you!

[cobalt iron]

Could you explain to me how, please?

[daring fern]

G.GAME.blind.chip_text = number_format(G.GAME.blind.chips)

[cobalt iron]

Let me test it

[charred widget]

yeah i was about to say

you're gonna have to use number_format

[cobalt iron]

Thanks a lot

[pastel torrent]

did I miss out on something? (custom boosters)

[pastel torrent]

nvm

found out

[unkempt bronze]

That's a common error I've noticed, and I wanna know how to fix it myself

[pastel torrent]

wait actually no

[pastel torrent]

ohhh

alr

[frosty rampart]

documentation sure is cool
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Booster

[stoic void]

How do I make deck have certain cards in

[pastel torrent]

I did enter smth in group_name

asking context sure is cool

[frosty rampart]

it's not actually literally group_key, you set a specific group key in the booster and then localize that key

[pastel torrent]

well that makes sense now

[unkempt bronze]

        name = 'Element Pack',
                text = {
                    'Pick 2 of 8 Element Cards to use later',
                },
        group_name = {
                'Elements'
            },
}```

Like this?

[frosty rampart]

not a table, just group_name = 'Elements'

[queen crescent]

you may want to use a table if you plan on having more than one group appear

Hey does anyone know why when I make a custom enhancement or seal and try to make my custom joker create cards with that new enhancement/seal the game crashes like it isnt registered properly?

[unkempt bronze]

Are you sure it actually is?

[true jasper]

send the code

[jovial wave]

when I try any other enhancement it works correctly

[daring fern]

It's m_modprefix_key

[frosty rampart]

1. you should use SMODS.add_card instead of SMODS.create_card, it handles the emplacing (and iirc the context calculate?) for you automatically
2. your key is entirely wrong, in the create_card or add_card call it should have enhancement = "m_modprefix_radiantqueen" (where modprefix is replaced with your mod's prefix)

[daring fern]

No, it does not call the context.

[frosty rampart]

ah ok

[jovial wave]

ohh now it works tysm you're amazing

[chrome widget]

Clearly I'm appealing to the right audience lmaooo

[fluid steppe]

anyone know how i add +1 hand during joker scoring

[lavish elm]

try
ease_hands_played(number of hands)
inside your context

[fluid steppe]

oki

[atomic edge]

can someone give me an example of ^X formatting in text

like what is the standard color etc. of that

[true jasper]

for exponents dark_edition is usually used

[wind steppe]

since it's not vanilla there's no "correct" answer but yeah dark_edition

that being said if you use the basic mult or chips colors for exponents i will find you

[atomic edge]

ahahahha

[hushed field]

Trying to alter values on consumables from the outside. I've got it working, insofar that it actually changes what a tarot card would do, but I'm not entirely sure how I'd be able to consistently make the loc_vars actually reflect the internal values of a card. I suspect I'd need to change the values stored in card.config.center.config to reflect the values in card.ability.consumable, but that seems to still not get through

[tepid crow]

Is this change at creation or when the consumable already exists?

[hushed field]

When it already exists

[tepid crow]

Hmm yeah that's rough. Cardsleeves does something similar but is restricted to creation so it works out

[wind steppe]

youd need to change the values in card.ability.consumeable, card.ability.extra, and card.ability

[hushed field]

nah, that's not the issue

[wind steppe]

is this on vanilla consumables?

might just be card.config instead of card.config.center.config

[tepid crow]

going through the code I want to say it's reading from card.config.center.config for the loc_vars like Ice said originally, but I didn't double check that in-game

[wind steppe]

where are you seeing that?

looks like its reading card.ability to me

[tepid crow]

ah shit I was looking at the unpatched code

didn't realize steamodded got in there

[hushed field]

I tried reading directly from the ability table and had that not work either, but maybe I set that up incorrectly in some way 🤔

[fluid steppe]

god it is so frustrating how balatro automatically truncates ANY numbers you give to its loc_vars to remove the decimal point

how do i/can i disable that

[wind steppe]

i dont think it does that

might be one of your mods

because like. hologram
and lucky cat

and others

[fluid steppe]

no hold on

(it's like that because of the sheer amount of workaround i'm trying)

[true jasper]

how tf did you even

[sturdy compass]

[fluid steppe]

in loc_vars
return { vars = {G.hypr['trickcoindesc']}}

in update 
G.hypr['trickcoindesc']= '{C:green}'..pct1..dot..pct2..'{}'..G.localization.misc.dictionary['k_hypr_workaround']..G.localization.descriptions.Back.b_blue.text[1]

[wind steppe]

huh

[sturdy compass]

Ok so wait, are you trying to change the dictionary text on the fly?

[fluid steppe]

yes

[wind steppe]

can you escape the color codes?

[fluid steppe]

that part's working

[sturdy compass]

If so there's a very easy way to do that

[wind steppe]

like with a backslash

[sturdy compass]

and keep the colors

in the loc_vars return, you can specify key = and then a string pointing towards the dictionary key

[fluid steppe]

what i'm trying to do is make it say 12.5% chance instead of 12% chance

changing the dict text on the fly was an attempted workaround

which didn't work

[sturdy compass]

👆

[granite jay]

Ok so I patched in the code and managed to make my joker just be a shortcut clone
How would I be able to make it so the code checks if the hand is a straight flush and if true, the skip value is 2?

local smods_shortcut_ref  = SMODS.shortcut
function SMODS.shortcut()
    if next(SMODS.find_card('j_grasslanders_emmie')) and next() then
        return true
    end
    return smods_shortcut_ref()
end```

[daring fern]

2 instead of true

[granite jay]

Thx

Now about checking if the hand contains a flush...

Ik I can't just do context.poker_hand('Straight Flush') because this function is very out of context.

[daring fern]

if next(get_flush(hand)) in the patch?

[granite jay]

I'm not sure if I'd like to implement that into the patch as it could interfere with other jokers I would want to make.
Could it be called from the SMODS.shortcut() function by any chance?

[daring fern]

No.

[granite jay]

ah dang it, ah well

at least it'll work for now

[stoic void]

This isnt working :(

[daring fern]

What is not working about it?

whoops

[daring fern]

perma_bonus doesn't exist in your config.

can you not use ^ in lua for exponents?

[vocal helm]

Less of a specific Balatro modding question and more of a Love2D shader question, but how would I draw an image in a shader? I've got the basic uniforms properly working (an image and its width/height as a vec2) but the texture itself only shows up as one solid color

// This is what actually changes the look of card
vec4 effect( vec4 colour, Image texture, vec2 texture_coords, vec2 screen_coords )
{

    // Take pixel color (rgba) from `texture` at `texture_coords`, equivalent of texture2D in GLSL
    vec4 tex = Texel(texture, texture_coords);
    // Position of a pixel within the sprite
    vec2 uv = (((texture_coords)*(image_details)) - texture_details.xy*texture_details.ba)/texture_details.ba;
    
    vec4 depths_tex = Texel(depths_texture, vec2(prophecy.y/prophecy.y)/depths_dimensions);
    if (tex.rgb == vec3(1.0)){
        tex.rgb = depths_tex.rgb;
    }

    // required
    return dissolve_mask(tex*colour, texture_coords, uv);
}

[vocal helm]

isn't it math.pow

[frosty rampart]

you should be able to, why?

[atomic edge]

it says unknown character

and crashes

maybe i did it wrong

[frosty rampart]

show the line where you use it

[atomic edge]

im stupid it was an extra ) sry

but thanks

[tepid crow]

are you directly calling Card:start_dissolve?

yes

it has a silent argument, does setting that to true not skip the dissolve sound?

not sure how to actually set them is the thing

@royal seal hey are you the person who made the pokermon mod? and if so is this the mod not working correctly or are not all of the cards been given art yet? its fine if not just not sure if its not working right for me

[royal seal]

Yeah as far as I'm aware its working, that's very odded. Perhaps its an issue with steamodded

[simple vault]

Theres like some cards that dont hsve this issue tho like I think all the mega and a handful of regular pokemon and also all the item amd energy cards are fine

So idk

[royal seal]

Yeah I'm not sure, that exact issue hasn't been reported before

[simple vault]

I think the other mods I had on were cartomancer, talisman, deck sleeves, malverk and thats it

Same issue when also adding the 2 pokermon mods that are on the mod manager

Other modded cards work fine though

[muted trout]

the game crashed when i destroyed a card (which gives a chance to create a spectral with this joker)

yes

I would love to

Can you infoqueue stickers?

[frosty rampart]

i would imagine you can, considering that they automatically infoqueue themselves on cards that have the stickers

hold on, lemme check if paperback does it for ultra rare (that joker spawns other jokers with the Temporary sticker)

[frosty rampart]

ok yea you can
info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = { set = "Other", key = "modprefix_stickerkey" }

[chrome widget]

Thanks!!!

[frosty rampart]

anyway i'm gonna throw this over here bc it didn't really catch any traction in the smods server, and i'm a little stupid so i'd really appreciate feedback on if this feature seems hard to use/what utility functions (if any) might make it better :3

this is a potential new SMODS feature that makes it possible to draw a Love2D Canvas object as a card sprite in-game, allowing you to modify it on the fly and e.g. render text as if it was printed on the card (normally, UI objects can't follow the 3D effects on cards because they don't get rendered through any shaders like cards do). i initially put this together for the blockbuster counters api but it could definitely be super useful in other places (i have at least two unrelated concepts i'm personally planning to use this for)
right now the state of it is essentially "you have to put love.graphics calls in the DrawStep where you render the CanvasSprite so you can actually put stuff on the canvas", and that might not necessarily be a bad thing! it's a fairly advanced feature, but i feel like it's at least a little bit barebones
i'd also like to see if anyone has any use cases beyond "drawing indeterminate text on a card", because right now the drawing code is hardcoded to assume the canvas will have an aspect ratio of 71:95 and idk if anyone has plans to use it on something other than a playing-card-shaped object
(note that you can just use set_sprites() or vanilla/smods animation systems for most cases, this is primarily useful if you have potentially dozens or hundreds of possible unique graphics you want to display on a card object and you can generate the graphic itself from just a single value or whatever)
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/pull/1020
an example use case is demonstrated and linked in the PR's description

@tepid crow I think I figured out that crash btw

for _, v in ipairs(G.P_JOKER_RARITY_POOLS[4]) do
    G.GAME.banned_keys[v] = true
end```

Entirely unrelated to sleeves but if you're interested. I had code banning all Legendaries because of a sleeve giving a guaranteed Legendary at Ante 6 in exchange. It seems like the crash is related to the game not knowing how to handle no available legendaries in the pool, possibly because of the code for guaranteeing the first legendary each run not being gold stickered, and it ends up saving bad data about the seed

[hybrid iris]

is there a way to get a random key from an Objecttype?

im trying to make a booster pack that, when opened, creates cards of a specific enhancement type but im getting kind of lost figuring out some of the finer details

[daring fern]

Yes, pseudorandom_element

[hybrid iris]

gotcha

do you just insert the key of the objecttype or is there a specific thing you need to start it with

[daring fern]

pseudorandom_element(G.P_CENTER_POOLS.objecttypekey, 'seed')

[hybrid iris]

coolio

hm, okay weird thing, it seems to be outputting the entire table? kjdhfksdfhj

[daring fern]

Code?

[hybrid iris]

one sec

okay

I feel like it has something to do with my objecttype but im not Entirely Sure

AHA
OKAY

ive located the issue

IM A GENIUS

thanks for the help!!!!

[red river]

how can i force the game to save?

[shell timber]

for the run? try save_run()

[wintry swallow]

i haven't come across an error like this yet so im curious what i need to do

[red river]

it worked, thanks!

[red river]

i've seen this error while coding in custom boss blinds and it's not actually related to images (in my case, at least)

i... don't remember/know the exact thing that needs to be done for this error to be fixed (or show up in the first place) but i stopped seeing it eventually

[wintry swallow]

i found the corrupted png and exported a new version over

all good

now as for the ACTUAL reason im here

                    for k, v in pairs(card.ability.extra) do
                        new_card.ability.extra[k] = v
                    end
                end

                new_card:set_cost()
                new_card:add_sticker("inscrypt_unkillable", true)

                inscrypt_unkillable_triggered = false

                return
            end
        }))
    end
}```

This code is meant to make it so that the card attached to the sticker reappears in the shop

it works.... but infinitley. all at once.

i spent like five hours yesterday redoing the code over and over again and fine tuning it

[red river]

infinitely as in it clogs all slots in the shop?

[wintry swallow]

i learned so much about lua just to end up with no results TvT

[wintry swallow]

no as in it creates itself infintly

beyond the shop slots

not even ChatGPT can give me an answer as to what's wrong

[red river]

you could... create a local variable somewhere when you add the joker to the shop, and next time you try to add it, check if the variable already exists

and reset said variable when exiting or rerolling the shop

[wintry swallow]

already did that with local inscrypt_unkillable_triggered and it doesn't seem to work no mater the combination i use

either it creates itself infinitley or the code stops itself in its tracks and doesnt create a new version in the shop

[red river]

maybe you should create it elsewhere..? i don't really know where though

[wintry swallow]

it's a global value that exists outside of the sticker code

[plucky berry]

guys what do i need to make +score and xscore work (like astronomica or mayhem)

i don't think it's in talisman and it's def not in smodded

[wispy falcon]

Why are the numbers the wrong way around when leveling up the mult? I want it to say 16 + 3, not 3 + 16

[lavish elm]

bump2

[high quartz]

you can either disable the function, by creating a mod that essentially just removs the skip function whenever you are in a booster pack or you can (im not 100% sure) remove the toggle

[lavish elm]

I want to make a specific kind of booster packs unskippable not all of them

[high quartz]

i assume still can do it tho

[lavish elm]

I imagine that this requires some sort of patching right?

[high quartz]

wdym?

[lavish elm]

I mean making a lovely patch

[solid salmon]

Hey guys

What mod has fusions that has code i can borrow

[high quartz]

I assume that he’s

Yes

[lavish elm]

ok I will try patching

[high quartz]

I could try looking at ur code, but I’m not 100% sure.

I honestly haven’t modded Balatro, just got into it but i have modded other games

[pastel kernel]

Crossmod functions for making certain jokers appear when you have a mod on

[solid salmon]

oh wait

i guess it is outdated

[mystic river]

your event doesn't appear to ever return true
which means it will keep running every frame forever

also I'm not sure you're using that triggered variable correctly, there's only going to be one of them and it will be set to true any time the sticker is calculated anywhere?

[mystic river]

generally, if chatgpt has no clue what's going on, the problem is something to do with how the game works and not a lua issue
just be careful, because it will never ever tell you when it doesn't know what's wrong

[wispy falcon]

How do I keep a Card from getting debuffed?

And how do I use a gradient as a badge color?

[pastel kernel]

how do you spawn two cards of a modded enhancement using a held in hand card?

[lyric wadi]

chat weird question

i think

how can i make a joker permanently remember how many runs it has been used in

if that's possible

[crisp coral]

save it to your profile or mod config

[flat mountain]

guys how can I check if the jokers have been moved ?

[frosty rampart]

let's break it down
first, i assume "using a held in hand card" means "copy all attributes of the given card, but give it the new enhancement"

step 1: copy the card
local card1 = copy_card(G.hand.cards[i]) (where i is the position of the card in hand).
step 2: apply the new enhancement
card1:set_ability("m_modprefix_enhancementkey")
step 3: do it again for a second card
step 4: calculate the playing_card_added context so that e.g. hologram counts the new cards
playing_card_joker_effects( { card1, card2 } )

[pastel kernel]

#1398928339992973375 message

it's an enhancement

[frosty rampart]

yes
that's what step 2 handles

[pastel kernel]

no, the enhancement creates 2 cards with 900n1's "blankcard" enhancement.

[frosty rampart]

ok
you can still do this in the enhancement's calculate function

[pastel kernel]

silenced gives 2 blank cards when held in hand then self destructs

[frosty rampart]

to be clear, do you want it to copy a card or not?

[pastel kernel]

not really no

candycane suggested i use the same snippet twice

since i'm basically making the same card

a blank ace

[frosty rampart]

ok
then what you have already seems fine? do you still need help

[frosty rampart]

do you still need help or not

[pastel kernel]

yea

[frosty rampart]

ok
with what exactly
you need to describe what's not working if you're still trying to do the enhancement, or you need to explain what this new problem is if it's related to whatever's in crk.lua

[pastel kernel]

Give me a sec

This thing is taking a while, fuck my shitty ass laptop.

[stoic void]

how can i make it so vscode doesn't think SMODS is a warning

as in, its given a yellow underline, the code works 100% i just dont know if i can make it dissapear

[pastel kernel]

Install lua extension

[stoic void]

I thought I did

I have

[pastel kernel]

THIS FUCKING CARD ENHANCEMENT

I HATE YOU SO MUCH

[frosty rampart]

i can't help you if you don't fucking explain what's wrong

[pastel kernel]

the card does not do what it says it does

[frosty rampart]

what is it doing then

[pastel kernel]

it does not self destruct

nor does it give 2 blanked cards

it does nothing

[frosty rampart]

oh wait
you need to use context.main_scoring for enhancements, not context.individual

[pastel kernel]

Maybe it)s my fault for making always_scores = false

[frosty rampart]

that. might also be an issue

actually no it's not

it's just the context thing

always_scores is false by default

[fluid steppe]

does anyone know how to make a ui badge not marquee-scroll and instead just. get wider

[pastel kernel]

Because no rank and no suit?

[frosty rampart]

no
just in general
always_scores makes it behave like stone cards in that it'll score even though it's not part of the poker hand

just change context.individual to context.main_scoring and see if that fixes it

[red flower]

if you dont mean mod badges then those should work like that by default

[simple vault]

@royal seal any idea how to fix this? or if theres a mod i have on that could be causing this?

[warm gyro]

I just had a quick question, if I have lovely installed do I also need steam modded?

[pastel kernel]

This breaks for some reason```lua
SMODS.destroy_card(card, nil, nil, nil, true)

This is how the card self destructs

[simple vault]

Right well this is completely broken screen recording apparently 😮‍💨

[elder rune]

dont think so, but steam modded is used by like every mod ever

[simple vault]

Nvrm

these mods and most pokermon cards just white like i mentioned yesterday

[warm gyro]

So is steam modded the framework and lovely the injector?

[frosty rampart]

when will you understand that just saying "this breaks" is incredibly unhelpful

you need to explain how it breaks. if it's crashing, show the crash log. if it's not crashing, describe the current behavior and how it differs from the desired behavior

[elder rune]

I guess

[frosty rampart]

yes
lovely makes modding possible, SMODS makes modding a lot easier

[warm gyro]

alright thank you

[pastel kernel]

I can’t copy the crash log anymore.

[frosty rampart]

you can screenshot

[hardy viper]

back in my day we had an obfuscated demo and a dream (wasn't my day)

back in wilsons day

[frosty rampart]

you can also just find the log in mods/lovely/log, open it in notepad, and scroll to the bottom

[pastel kernel]

attempts to call field 'destroy_card' (a nil value)

[frosty rampart]

the top of the crash is a lot more helpful than the stack traceback
anyway it's destroy_cards, plural

[wispy falcon]

What variable for shaders is the current sprite of the card it is on?

[royal seal]

I'm unfortunately not sure as I can't reproduce that specific problem youre seeing. Maybe double check that the image files are all there in the folder, and you could also try using a different release or version of steamodded just to double check. Sometimes there's errors with the latest steamodded code that get fixed quickly

[faint yacht]

context.destroy_card and SMODS.destroy_cards

[frosty rampart]

yep

[pastel kernel]

Oh

[simple vault]

thanks ill see what i can do

[pastel kernel]

this might be wrong in so many levels```lua
calculate = function(self, card, context)
if context.cardarea == G.hand and context.main_scoring then
SMODS.add_card{ set = "Base", rank = "A", enhancement = "m_ninehund_blankcard" }
SMODS.add_card{ set = "Base", rank = "A", enhancement = "m_ninehund_blankcard" }
if context.destroy_card then
SMODS.destroy_cards(card, nil, nil, nil, true)
end
end
end,

Ok it works

[wispy falcon]

bump

[frosty rampart]

this is literally some of the most normal code I've ever seen

[pastel kernel]

I’m gonna see if Silent Salt Cookie also works.

His last issue is not destroying glass cards.

Blank cards*

[faint yacht]

if context.destroy_card should be outside of the context.main_scoring check, anyway.

[pastel kernel]

i wonder if i did this correctly (Silent Salt Cookie Joker)lua if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.hand then if context.destroy_card and SMODS.has_enhancement(context.other_card, 'm_ninehund_blankcard') then card.ability.extra.emult = (card.ability.extra.emult) + card.ability.extra.gainwiped SMODS.calculate_effect({ message = "+^"..card.ability.extra.gain.." Mult", colour = G.C.FILTER, instant = true}, card) return {remove = true} end end

[tranquil gull]

is this too op

and if so would removing the money balance it

[wispy falcon]

bump2

[azure valley]

That doesn't sound OP at all. Getting to return to the shop is great, but it's still super situational. I would generally prefer being able to dig during a blind to use my tarots, etc. There's a lot of value you can get out of a blind, from (for instance) interest, gold cards, blind rewards, joker scaling, and so on, that you're missing from this. I would only consider taking this if I'm in ante 1 or 2, on a small blind not on white stake, and I don't have much I can do in the blind.

and even then it's pretty marginal

[wind steppe]

no this is pretty balanced

[azure valley]

but most tags are, so it's fine

[wind steppe]

it’s stronger than most other tags but most other tags are fucking ass

finally a reason to skip

[frosty rampart]

the money gain is probably less than the money you'd gain from playing the blind anyway (although it gains more relative value if it shows up on a small blind at red stake or above)

[tranquil gull]

so it's about the same level as other tags?

[flat mountain]

how would this work with double tag ? lol

[tranquil gull]

lemme. test that lmao

[flat mountain]

leave shop an,d get immediatly back to it

[azure valley]

oh interesting idea, I'll bet it triggers again when you leave shop, so you get +$10 and get to shop twice

[tranquil gull]

nope it just

goes to shop once

but triggers the money twice

[wind steppe]

it should do this imo

[azure valley]

sounds like a bug you should fix

it should give $5 and take you to the shop, then when you exit the shop give you another $5 and take you back to the shop

[tranquil gull]

true bc that does reset rerolls

[wind steppe]

it’s pretty similar to investment tag in terms of when it’s good

is better on red stake thougj

[azure valley]

and refreshes boosters

The interaction between this and double tag makes this actually quite powerful

[tranquil gull]

good on anaglyph

[pastel kernel]

Ok so basically Silent Salt is a self sustaining Deck Fixing joker…

Evil

I like it

[flat mountain]

anyway to hot reload mods or do I have to restart the game every changes ?

[wind steppe]

restart the game

hold alt f5

also restart runs when you change things

[tranquil gull]

@flat mountain @wind steppe the DebugPlus mod has save states - save with z+1/2/3, load with x+1/2/3

incredibly useful for mod testing

[flat mountain]

yeah already using it to easily spawn my joker

[lavish elm]

how to check if a specific kind of booster pack is opened?

[wind steppe]

i know

if you change the code though

save states don’t help

[tranquil gull]

is this too strong of a spectral
(you pull it from the spectral pack instead of using it immediately a la cryptid code cards)

[wind steppe]

no seems fine

[wispy falcon]

Anyone know why my shader only works on cards of the first column from their spritesheets?

[tranquil gull]

try doing something with modulus on the texture coordinates or uv or something?

[wispy falcon]

What?

[tranquil gull]

jkshkjfsd idk i was just

talking on intuition

[wispy falcon]

It's fine, I just don't know what you mean by that

[tranquil gull]

do you know what modulus does?

[wispy falcon]

No

[tranquil gull]

here 1s

it basically just wraps it

it's formally defined as mod(x, b) = ((x/b) - floor(x/b))*b

[wispy falcon]

Okay, how would I implement that the best way?

[tranquil gull]

just use mod()

it's a builtin

or it might be modf() or fmod() i forget

are these too strong

[wind steppe]

how do decimal antes work

[tranquil gull]

they interpolate the blind size log-linearly

[wind steppe]

seems fine then

[tranquil gull]

local orig_get_blind_amount = get_blind_amount

function get_blind_amount(ante)
    local fract_ante = math.fmod(ante, 1.0)
    if fract_ante == 0 or fract_ante ~= fract_ante or not (fract_ante > -math.huge and fract_ante < math.huge) then
        return orig_get_blind_amount(ante)
    end
    -- Log-linear interpolation
    return
        (
            orig_get_blind_amount(math.floor(ante))
            ^ (1 - fract_ante)
        ) * (
            orig_get_blind_amount(math.floor(ante + 1))
            ^ fract_ante
        )
end

[wind steppe]

easy button actually looks a bit weak tbh

[tranquil gull]

fair

[wind steppe]

0.8?

[tranquil gull]

yea

[wind steppe]

wimpmode is also slightly weak considering its t2

0.75

[tranquil gull]

that's fair

[wind steppe]

can i ask why you aren’t using math.ceiling btw

[wispy falcon]

I don't get where I implement mod() in my code

[tranquil gull]

you don't

it's built in

[tranquil gull]

it's floor(ante + 1) not ceil(ante)

it doesn't actually matter but

for correctness

all of the things in my mod are implemented 🎉 now i just need to draw the assets

[flat mountain]

huh, when starting a blind the event queue just keeps piling up, how can I debug what cause that ?

[tranquil gull]

btw why does this just not grow to the width of the mod name, only wrapping when it hits the edges of the gray box

i mean

[wispy falcon]

No, I mean like using it. Or do you mean that it does that for everything by itself?

[tranquil gull]

i know why, it's parented under the same thing the voucher label is

i mean like

mod() is a builtin function in glsl

like mix() or dot()

[wispy falcon]

Okay, I don't know where to use it in my code, like on what variables and stuff. That's what I was trying to say there

[tranquil gull]

ohh okay

it's just

you could probably use it to wrap the x and y coordinates of the texture atlas when plugging it into the relevant parts that aren't fetching the actual card texture

[wispy falcon]

Could you explain that to me on my code, please?

[tranquil gull]

idk where your code is doing what so i probably wouldn't be able to

idk if that's the problem but it should be Game.main_menu = function(self, change_context) and oldfunc(self, change_context)

Hello friends! I recently added a voucher to my mod (admittedly with the help of jokerforge) and it's not showing up in the collection, and I don't think it's loaded into the game at all. i tried modifying the main.lua file to include it, but it's still not showing up. How can we fix this?

[maiden phoenix]

Does your mod shows up in balatro's mod menu?

[charred widget]

yes it does.

[maiden phoenix]

And the voucher is inside when you click on it?

[charred widget]

no, the voucher isn't loaded in the game. the files are there, but the game just doesn't want to load them.

[maiden phoenix]

Can you show the voucher code?

[maiden phoenix]

Sorry can you send a screenshot? Im on phone

[charred widget]

oh sure

[maiden phoenix]

Is vouchers/legend_aura.lua get loaded in main.lua?

[charred widget]

i don't know, but here's main.lua's voucher code

Does load_vouchers_folder get called? Meaning is it written somewhere else?

wait

no nvm

Its trying the load the folder instead of the files inside, did you modify the function?

[charred widget]

ohhhhhhhhhhh

ok i got it working

but in a slightly spaghetti-code way

it's looking for vouchers.lua in the main folder for the mod

but I don't have one there

so i just copied legend_aura.lua from the vouchers folder and put it in the main folder

but it's working now

[maiden phoenix]

Well I mean if it works

[robust falcon]

Hey guys I've got a question. How do yall make those seamless gradients for your cards (like the background of bean joker, Oops all 6s, etc...) ?

[lavish elm]

How to fix problem with smods take ownership on vanilla jokers where the lovely file card.lua still tries to apply the original effect?

[robust shuttle]

is it possible to halve an individually scored card's chips with a joker? but like only if the joker is in the deck, otherwise its normally scored

[wispy falcon]

Does anyone here understand shader?

[wintry solar]

can you show a code example of when this is happening?

[hardy viper]

?

oh its up there

i gotchu

[wispy falcon]

Are you able to help me with that?

[hardy viper]

yeah i have no idea sounds like love2d jank

ill ping someone who

knows shaders

uh

[wispy falcon]

Okay, thank you

[hardy viper]

fuck i was gonna ping ruby

forgor

[wispy falcon]

What?

[fossil ermine]

how do i make it so that a group of jokers can only appear in the shop once a specific joker is in the main joker slots

[lavish elm]

SMODS.Joker:take_ownership("j_matador",{
    loc_txt = {
        name = "Matador",

    config = { extra = { dollars = 4, extra_blind_size = 2 } },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.dollars, card.ability.extra.extra_blind_size } }
    end,
    calculate = function (self, card, context)
        if context.setting_blind and G.GAME.blind.boss then
            G.GAME.blind.chips = G.GAME.blind.chips * card.ability.extra.extra_blind_size
            G.GAME.blind.chip_text = number_format(G.GAME.blind.chips)
        end
        if G.GAME.blind.boss and context.cardarea == G.play and context.individual then
            return{
                dollars = card.ability.extra.dollars,
                func = function()
                        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                            func = function()
                                G.GAME.dollar_buffer = 0
                                return true
                            end
                        }))
                    end
            }
        end
    end
}, true)

here is a matedor rework

[chrome widget]

Hmmm trying to come up with the easiest way to mark that a joker has been "triggered" in a run. I believe I need to hook SMODS.calculate_individual_effect?

or just SMODS.calculate_effect if ret.calculated = true?

[wintry solar]

you could try throwing a return nil, true at the bottom of the calc function

[wispy falcon]

You could make a global

[chrome widget]

that's kind of assumed yeah

[fossil ermine]

bump

[wispy falcon]

By the way, are you able to help me with my shader problem? It's doing weird stuff and I don't know why or how I could change it

[chrome widget]

I might be able to, but no guarantees

Shaders are unfortunately hard for me too

[lavish elm]

It works now thanks

[wispy falcon]

Okay, that's fine. So, my shader should mirror the left side of the joker it is on onto the right side. It does that but only for the first Column of the sprite sheet (left of blue line). The others it just does nothing (it triggers my debug lower, to be correct). Do you know why this might be or how I could achieve that shader on a different way that might work?

-# That was the wrong file, oops

[chrome widget]

Just means your original UV coordinates are incorrect afaik

If they can't scale past the first column

[wispy falcon]

How do I change that?

[wintry solar]

your local coordinates are wrong

[chrome widget]

yeah

[wintry solar]

I think

[chrome widget]

the standard uv calc the game does is
MY_HIGHP_OR_MEDIUMP vec2 uv = (((tex_coords)*(image_details)) - texture_details.xy*texture_details.ba)/texture_details.ba;

[wintry solar]

the entire sprite sheet is sent to the shader, so your local.x is likely only < 0.5 for the first column

[chrome widget]

I've sometimes needed to modify this, specifically for transforming one texture coord to that of another:

MY_HIGHP_OR_MEDIUMP float width_mod = texture_details.b / image_details.x;
MY_HIGHP_OR_MEDIUMP float height_mod = texture_details.a / image_details.y;
MY_HIGHP_OR_MEDIUMP float x_pos = (uv.x + texture_details.x) * width_mod;
MY_HIGHP_OR_MEDIUMP float y_pos = (uv.y + texture_details.y) * height_mod;```

(I honestly don't remember why the original didn't work here)

[wispy falcon]

Okay and how would I change my shader to work?

[chrome widget]

Okay okay right I see now

The conversion I just did here was for a mask shader of a different atlas size than the base card, so it correctly scales the pixel coordinates for one "unit" of the larger atlas to the smaller single image atlas used by the mask

the x_pos and y_pos I showed you will give you the local position within the single sprite (0-1), rather than along the whole atlas

[chrome widget]

replace your local with

float width_mod = texture_details.b / image_details.x;
local = vec2((uv.x + texture_details.x) * width_mod, uv.y);```

This'll give you the correct local x coordinate for each sprite in the atlas

[wispy falcon]

And then it should work?

[chrome widget]

assuming the rest of your math is good, it should?

But I haven't looked into it deeper

[wispy falcon]

I think my math needs adjusting XD

[chrome widget]

WOA

[wispy falcon]

Jimbo everywhere

[pseudo furnace]

That's actually cool what

[chrome widget]

Might make this a feature in my mod

Wide Jokers

[chrome widget]

it is wide witch checks watch Thursday

[pseudo furnace]

Lol intervention
I wanted to ask about stickers and after buying a Joker with it nothing is printing

[hardy vessel]

I'm having an issue with a blind disabling cards. This is for even rank cards. When the blind starts, the card do debuff (cards in my hand are visibly so), but when the I check the deck... the game crashes. Any help would be appreciated

calculate = function(self, blind, context)
        if context.debuff_card and context.debuff_card.area ~= G.jokers and not G.GAME.blind.disabled then
            if not SMODS.has_no_rank(context.debuff_card) and 
            (context.debuff_card:get_id() <= 10 and context.debuff_card:get_id() >= 0 and context.debuff_card:get_id()% 2 == 0) then
                return {debuff = true}
            end
        end
    end,

[wispy falcon]

Back to where I was a few hours ago...

[pseudo furnace]

Trypophobia mod lol

[wispy falcon]

We getting there

[wispy falcon]

May I request your help again? I can't make it work

[chrome widget]

The code I gave you from earlier only squashed to the local x coordinates so you can repeat it with the y coords too

replace your local with

float width_mod = texture_details.b / image_details.x;
float height_mod = texture_details.a / image_details.y;
local = vec2((uv.x + texture_details.x) * width_mod, (uv.y + texture_details.y) * height_mod);```

[wispy falcon]

But how do I mirror it?

        local.x = 1.0 - local.x;
    }``` doesn't work

[chrome widget]

logically that should work assuming it's squashed into local space

[frosty rampart]

hi i missed the start of this conversation can you send me the details of whatever this is thank u (i have plans to write up some shader guides, and this seems helpful/relevant i think?)

[wispy falcon]

Then why isn't it working...?

[wispy falcon]

Shader guides would be very nice

[chrome widget]

Oh yeah it's just a simple scaling for texture coordinates between atlases of different sizes. In this context, I need to get the "local" coordinate of an individual sprite in a larger sprite atlas to map onto a single mask texture that's only 71x95

Because the actual coordinates fed directly into texture_coords are respective to the full atlas dimensions

[frosty rampart]

cool, thanks

[wispy falcon]

There is nothing wrong with this, is there?

    
    vec2 local = (((texture_coords)*(image_details)) - texture_details.xy*texture_details.ba)/texture_details.ba;
    float width_mod = texture_details.b / image_details.x;
    float height_mod = texture_details.a / image_details.y;
    local = vec2((uv.x + texture_details.x) * width_mod, (uv.y + texture_details.y) * height_mod);

    if (local.x > 0.5) {
        local.x = 1.0 - local.x;
    }

    vec2 mirroredUV = (local + texture_details.ba + texture_details.xy) / image_details ;

    vec4 tex = Texel(texture, mirroredUV);```

[chrome widget]

you don't need to convert back to that mirrored UV

you shoud just be able to do Texel(texture, local)

[wispy falcon]

Now it just mirrors the atlas

Those are Greedy Joker, Lusty Joker, Wrathful Joker and Gluttonous Joker

[jolly shadow]

yo how would i remove vanilla content when my mod is enabled

[chrome widget]

mmm yeah that implies that the local is still scaled to the whole texture for whatever reason

[wispy falcon]

Any idea why?

[chrome widget]

Looks like you do gotta scale back, but I'll give you a different calc that's the reverse of what I did

[wispy falcon]

The first half of the atlas is not affected, only the second

[frosty rampart]

well yes that's because of the if local.x > 0.5 part

[wispy falcon]

That's what I thought

[frosty rampart]

you're only mirroring the right half of what you assumed was the individual card, but what's actually the whole atlas

[chrome widget]

    
vec2 local = (((texture_coords)*(image_details)) - texture_details.xy*texture_details.ba)/texture_details.ba;
float width_mod = texture_details.b / image_details.x;
float height_mod = texture_details.a / image_details.y;
local = vec2((uv.x + texture_details.x) * width_mod, (uv.y + texture_details.y) * height_mod);

if (local.x > 0.5) {
    local.x = 1.0 - local.x;
}

local = vec2(local.x/width_mod - texture_details.x, local.y/height_mod - texture_details.y)
vec2 scaled_tex_coords = (local * texture_details.ba + texture_details.xy*texture_details.ba)/image_details

vec4 tex = Texel(texture, local);```

That converts back to the original full uv coordinates, though that's typically used for the dissolve effect

    
vec2 local = (((texture_coords)*(image_details)) - texture_details.xy*texture_details.ba)/texture_details.ba;
float width_mod = texture_details.b / image_details.x;
float height_mod = texture_details.a / image_details.y;
local = vec2((uv.x + texture_details.x) * width_mod, (uv.y + texture_details.y) * height_mod);

if (local.x > 0.5) {
    local.x = 1.0 - local.x;
}

local = vec2(local.x/width_mod - texture_details.x, local.y/height_mod - texture_details.y)
vec2 scaled_tex_coords = (local * texture_details.ba + texture_details.xy*texture_details.ba)/image_details

vec4 tex = Texel(texture, scaled_tex_coords);```

And this should be back to base texture coords

[wispy falcon]

Which one do I use?

[chrome widget]

The latter is more likely to work

[wispy falcon]

This are the results, both don't work

All have the shader applied to them

I don't get why it's not working

[chrome widget]

Neither me, but unfortunately that's a consequence of dictating through someone else rather than experimenting with it myself. Chances are I did some math wrong somewhere

[wispy falcon]

I mean, you could experiment with it yourself, if you'd like to

[chrome widget]

That involves pulling myself away from the thing I'm currently working on

[wispy falcon]

You don't have to experiment on it now, I can wait. If it means that in the end it might work, then I'm happy

[chrome widget]

Sure

You'll just have to give me some time to wrap this up

[wispy falcon]

That's fine

And thank you for helping me in the first place, I really appreciate it :D

how do i add something to the end of another card's name?

this is for upgraded planet cards, i'd like to add +s to their names

[muted trout]

im new to making new decks, is there a way to make initial face cards be glass cards?

[chrome widget]

In the process of reworking the Achievement Tab so that it's more in line with descriptions elsewhere and supports text formatting

[wispy falcon]

Looks nice :3

[muted trout]

forgive the solution looking obvious

[red flower]

loc_txt

the way that you do the glass card thing is to have an event that changes the cards in G.playing_cards

[muted trout]

what would the event have to contain?

[red flower]

a for loop, an is_face check and a set_ability call

im not in the mood to write it out, sorry

[elder rune]

Im trying to make a joker that will do an effect when a playing card in hand gets triggered (e.g. steel card doing its thing). but I cant get the joker to trigger

[muted trout]

it is done

how do i change G.shared_soul

[analog spoke]

I have some ideas for possible effects for editions I have that I wasn't sure on before, so, if u know, please tell me if these are possible and if so, how I might be able to go about coding them, thanks! :3

• Vouchers in shop cost $1 less
• x2 mult before scoring hand (basically doubling your base hand mult)

I just know that back when I was trying to make editions before there was some trouble with making passive effects work w them lol

is it possible to get the poker hand without context.scoring_name? I am trying to get the number of planet cards for the current poker hand without actually playing it, for something with JokerDisplay

jokerdisplay has functions for it

john joker display

[quick prairie]

how does something like red seal count toward the trigger count? if i make an enhancement that can retrigger how can i make a joker pick up on that?

[red flower]

it's basically hardcoded, you would need to hook this
https://github.com/nh6574/JokerDisplay/blob/73c707e86bd289be62f942fd0b4b3507185b54fe/src/api_helper_functions.lua#L209

[quick prairie]

whelp, an attempt was made

[jolly shadow]

how would i go about changing the sprites of the small and big blinds

[elder rune]

[round lion]

i donnot know how to make a joker usable

[bold sleet]

idk, I just checked baron's code and the conditionals are context.individual and context.cardarea == G.hand.

[round lion]

so now i will use that same method i used for the blind because im clueless on how to make a active ability for a joker.

MAKING IT ENTIRELY IN LOVELY.

[elder rune]

Because it checks for kings in hand

[bold sleet]

Does anyone happen to know how to trigger a joker whenever any card gets destroyed (not discarded or sold)?

[elder rune]

checks

[bold sleet]

ik

So I don't know why your joker shouldn't work.

Unless you are doing additional checks.

Then I don't know.

[elder rune]

I'm not rn

[bold sleet]

Then try printing messages to the console idk

For more debugging?

[elder rune]

Wait I think I just got an idea

[bold sleet]

"You used F5"

[elder rune]

It gave me a whole new perspective

And I was able to see a chest I couldn't have seen before

But whatever I thought of checking for context.repetition

[bold sleet]

and right on top of that chest there was a locked hopper, and if you bothered checking it, you would find the solution for coding problem!

[bold sleet]

See if printing stuff yields any results.

[elder rune]

Can't do stuff rn (school in 30min)

[bold sleet]

Ah.

Then I am afraid I cannot help you further.

[bold sleet]

Which prompts me to this

[elder rune]

How tf would you help me? End school earlier?

[bold sleet]

idk

[elder rune]

Isn't there a check for that in context

[bold sleet]

if you can test stuff we can figure out and find out

[bold sleet]

idk

Last time I did any joker wizardy was like 2 months ago.

I forgor my contexts and how the fuck they work.

[jolly shadow]

^ this

also how would i go abt removing the vanilla blinds when my mod is enabled

[elder rune]

Ortalab does change those sprites right

[jolly shadow]

i dont think so?

[elder rune]

Nope they do

[jolly shadow]

p sure they just replace small and big blinds

from what im seeing in the source

[elder rune]

Yeah they do that

But can still be a step in the right direction

[jolly shadow]

no its not 😭

im trying to replace a sprite not patch a whole feature 😭
