[slim ferry]

for changing sprites you can use #1300851004186820690 and make it a texture pack

[jolly shadow]

im not doing a texture pack !

i only need to change 2 blinds the rest is modded content lmao

[slim ferry]

yeah

you can just have a built in texture pack in the mod

or just look at how malverk changes the sprites and use that yourself

[jolly shadow]

just took ownership of small and big blind instead lmao

[bold sleet]

Will do lol

[ripe oak]

Anyone know if it's possible to change the score requirement (and reward) of a blind so it shows up on the 'Select your next blind' screen? I.e. without changing the base blinds themselves.

[bold sleet]

dunno sorry
Do you, or anyone knows how to make the game re-calculate the played hand?

For an effect similar to vampire, for example.

[ripe oak]

Maybe check the code for Vampire in here:

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

[ripe oak]

@bold sleet

[bold sleet]

mmmm

It doesn't recalculate, because it doesn't have to, I believe.

or it does..?

wtf

[high quartz]

if you ask it nicely

it might recalculate

[pseudo furnace]

Can someone help me with a sticker script? Nothing seems to be printing/happening

[plucky berry]

guys i'm tryina change blind requirements with G.GAME.blind.chips = G.GAME.blind.chips * amt and it works but the UI doens't update to show the change how can i do it

[umbral zodiac]

i believe you should also run G.GAME.blind.chip_text = number_format(G.GAME.blind.chips) afterwards

this is what i do in my code that does similar, idk if recalculating is necessary but you can try it

[plucky berry]

ok it works tnx, only problem is the timing the ui is updating way before the message and sound playing but i'll figure it out

[umbral zodiac]

you could try n put it all in an event

calculate all runs at once and then gets queued up to show its effects so if you do something like setting blind size and updating immediately it will update way before it "should"

[plucky berry]

i'm trying that

alright probably messed something up

[wintry swallow]

I got the code on that new joker to work but now this popped up after it finished triggering:

and i dont think it says "cards" in the code anywhere

[queen crescent]

this is fine

[wintry swallow]

Ok so its not realted to the joker its related to the Unkillable sticker

SMODS.Sticker {
    key = "unkillable",
    badge_colour = HEX("a86232"),
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    atlas = "unkillable",

    calculate = function(self, card, context)

        if inscrypt_unkillable_triggered then
            return
        end

        if not (context.destroy_card or context.selling_self) then
            return
        end

        inscrypt_unkillable_triggered = true
            
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            trigger = 'after',
            func = function()
                -- Re-run after Oroboros finishes upgrading
                local joker_key = card.config and card.config.center and card.config.center.key
                if not joker_key then 
                    return true
                end

                local new_card = SMODS.create_card {
                    set = "Joker",
                    key = joker_key,
                    area = G.shop_jokers
                }
                if not new_card then 
                    inscrypt_unkillable_triggered = false
                    return true
                end

                create_shop_card_ui(new_card, nil, G.shop_jokers)
                G.shop_jokers:emplace(new_card)

                -- Copy updated stats (after Oroboros upgraded)
                if card.ability and type(card.ability.extra) == "table" then
                    new_card.ability.extra = {}
                    for k, v in pairs(card.ability.extra) do
                        new_card.ability.extra[k] = v
                    end
                end

                new_card:start_materialize()
                new_card.states.visible = true
                new_card.ability.couponed = false
                new_card:set_cost()
                new_card:add_sticker("inscrypt_unkillable", true)

                inscrypt_unkillable_triggered = false
                return true
            end
        }))
    end```

heres the code if anyone can help

THAT WAS A LOT MORE THAN I THOUGH

[queen crescent]

literally absolute

[pseudo furnace]

Do stickers have a update function or equivalent?

[pale holly]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
            if context.retrigger_joker_check and not context.retrigger_joker and context.other_card ~= self then
                if context.other_card == G.jokers.cards[i] then
                    return {
                        message = localize("k_again_ex"),
                        repetitions = center.ability.extra.retriggers,
                    }
                end
            end
        end
    end

Hello, trying to make a joker that would retrigger all jokers once, took the code from cryptid and trying to adapt to it but i'm not how i can do it, help is appreciated !

[slim ferry]

remove the for loop

and also self should be card

[pale holly]

what exactly do i remove ?

[slim ferry]

for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do ... end

[solid salmon]

can someone give me the weird ''' thing

[pale holly]

oh i see, but in that case my context.other_card == G.jokers.cards[i] would become incorect then

[slim ferry]

remove that too

[solid salmon]

SMODS.Joker {
    key = 'joker?',
    loc_txt = {
      name = 'Joker?',
      text = {'{X:mult,C:white}X#1#{} mult, increases by {X:mult,C:white}X#2#{} per blind cleared',
              '{C:green}1/#4#{} chance to activate the {C:red}lose condition{} when playing a hand',
              'denumerator decreases by 2 every round'
            }
   },
   rarity = 3,
   pos = {
      x = 0,
      y = 0
   },
   config = { extra = {odds = 100, Xmult = 1.75, Xmult_mod = 0.1}},
   cost = 16,
   discovered = true,
   loc_vars = function(self,info_queue,card)
    local numerator, denominator = SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, 1, card.ability.extra.odds, 'joker?')
    return { vars = {card.ability.extra.Xmult, card.ability.extra.Xmult_gain,numerator,denominator}}
   end,
   calculate = function(self,card,context)
    if context.end_of_round and context.game_over == false and context.main_eval and not context.blueprint then
        card.ability.extra.Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult + card.ability.extra.Xmult_mod
        card.ability.extra.odds = card.ability.extra.odds - 2
    end
    if context.joker_main then
        if SMODS.pseudorandom_probability(card, 'joker?', 1, card.ability.extra.odds) then
            G.GAME.round_resets.hands = G.GAME.round_resets.hands - 5
            ease_hands_played(-5)
        end
        else
            return
            {
                Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult
            }
        end
    end,

yeah so uhhh

for some reason

this crashes the game

whenever i load in the blind

[pale holly]

you forgot a '}' at the end

[solid salmon]

oh wait

[pale holly]

and thanks, i will check that

[solid salmon]

}
SMODS.Atlas {
    key = "joker?",
    path = "JokerQ.png",
    px = 71,
    py = 95
}```

lemme clearly state what i wanted it to do

[pale holly]

what error you got ?

[solid salmon]

arithmetic mult

actually lemme just replicate it

[pale holly]

doesn't it need talisman or something for this ?

[solid salmon]

i dunno

[pale holly]

also if i'm right it' xmult and not Xmult

[slim ferry]

either works

[pale holly]

enable tralisman and then check, i feel like this could be that, might be wrong

[pale holly]

oh wait maybe not

[solid salmon]

can i say what i wanted it to do

i wanted it to give 1.75x mult that increases everytime you beat a round

but it also has a chance to activate the "lose condition"

which for now is -5 hands

[analog spoke]

fell asleep the other day lol, time to get back on my balalala stuff lol

[pale holly]

i think the problem is that with the if smods pseudore random you closed it too quickly, you should remove the end and keep else

[solid salmon]

huh?

oh

i think i get it

ok

lemme me try it now

[pale holly]

     if context.joker_main then
        if SMODS.pseudorandom_probability(card, 'joker?', 1, card.ability.extra.odds) then
            G.GAME.round_resets.hands = G.GAME.round_resets.hands - 5
            ease_hands_played(-5)
        else
            return
            {
                Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult
            }
        end
    end,

just remove the end and keep the else like this, now it should work

[pseudo furnace]

Do stickers have a update function or equivalent?

[solid salmon]

i did that

how do i fix the nil

[pale holly]

does it work now ?

[solid salmon]

it does

[pale holly]

in your vars you set Xmult_gain when it's Xmult_mod in your config

[solid salmon]

ah

wait

[pale holly]

Xmult_gain doesn't exist in the config so it renders nil

just replace gain by mod and you're good

[solid salmon]

ok

yep its perfect now

[queen crescent]

worded it better:
X1.75 Mult, increase by X? per cleared Blind
1 in 100 Chance to instantly lose the run
At the end of the round, decrease the denumerator by 2

[pale holly]

        config = {
        extra = { retriggers = 1}},
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, center)
        return { vars = { center.ability.extra.retriggers } }
    end,

    calculate = function(self, card, context)

            if context.retrigger_joker_check and not context.retrigger_joker and context.other_card ~= card then

                    return {
                        message = localize("k_again_ex"),
                        repetitions = center.ability.extra.retriggers,
                    }

        end
    end
    ```

Nope still won't  do anything, i did removed so

[spare wren]

hey is there a way to exclude a card from a table pool when using psuedorandom_element? i have a joker that picks two cards that are held in hand and i need it to be so it doesn't pick the same card twice

[pseudo furnace]

actually it's denominator 🥸

[queen crescent]

whatever

-# im skipping xStep next bdash gameplay update

[pseudo furnace]

what does that even mean

[queen crescent]

i will not elaborate
look it up

[spare wren]

wait since when does SMODS.psuedorandom_probability exist 😨 ive just been using the normal cursed balatro method of doing it

[pale holly]

recent smods, but if i'm right you even do like this anymore, i rarely udpate my smods so faced the same stuff lol

[solid salmon]

a while

ive been using it for all my consumables

[spare wren]

thats really useful though i wish i knew earlier lol

idk why its not in the

utility functions page of the github docs

[solid salmon]

i mean

they work the same

[spare wren]

unless im. literally just blind

[spare wren]

yeahhh but it makes stuff a lot simpler to read

and i like readability

[pale holly]

the smods wiki always feels blurry for me to read and understand how it works since there's not always everything your search on it yet and even so there's no proper exemple, Vanilla Remade in that case is a huge helper
But in general the best way to learn easier is also just by looking trough other mods

[solid salmon]

i looked at ortalab

[spare wren]

thats honestly fair

[solid salmon]

(im gonna fuse yellow with yellow deck joker eventually)

[wintry solar]

I just don’t update the wiki 😭

[spare wren]

local picked_cards = {}
picked_cards[1] = pseudorandom_element(G.hand.cards, pseudoseed('br_ilb'))
local new_pool = { table.unpack(G.hand.cards) }
table.remove(new_pool, table.find(new_pool, picked_cards[1]))
picked_cards[2] = psuedorandom_element(new_pool, psuedorandom('br_ilb'))

for _, v in ipairs(picked_cards) do
    ...
end
``` yeah i feel like this is the most cursed way of possibly doing this i really dont know any other implementation though

[pale holly]

Yeah
-# seriously, i only learned at first the basics of balatro modding with the YahiMod, couldn't even do a xchips joker ffs

[pale holly]

well if it works..

[hushed field]

How would I get the key of the edition that's applied to a card? I'm sure I've done it in the past but I've forgotten how, it seems, haha

[spare wren]

yeah mfw i just realized table.find actually does not exist in lua and only exists in luau im going to throw several rocks

table.unpack is ALSO a luau thing

nvm

[pale holly]

is there even a juice_up ? i feel like it's missing

[solid salmon]

this is VERY old code

also

i was just testing it

[pale holly]

i just find it weird the game crash upon juice_up despite your code not even having any, and you're on the most recent version of smods too

[solid salmon]

oh wait

i based this joker of the ghost deck

imma just see its code

...

yeah

thats not right

[pale holly]

gotta remodernize it

[solid salmon]

yeah ik

just need to find out how

i will try using eightballs code

[pale holly]

        config = {
        extra = { retriggers = 1}},

JUst resending this
Trying to make my joker retrigger each joker but right now it does nothing at all, feel like i'm missing more, but not sure what exactly honestly

[wintry solar]

Have you turned on retriggers

[real crown]

Is something wrong with my check here?
I get the "AAAAAAAA" output but not the "BBBBBBB", even though the key to the pack IS p_pool_1

        local ref = args and args.config and args.config.ref_table
        local is_rrn_pool_pack = ref and ref.config and ref.config.center and ref.config.center.key == 'p_pool_1'
        local ret = _end_consumeable(args)
        print("AAAAAAAA")
        if is_rrn_pool_pack then
            print("BBBBBBBB")```

[pale holly]

retrigger = 1 ?
not sure what you mean by it

[wintry solar]

Joker retriggers is an optional feature, it’s not enabled by default

[rotund sable]

Maybe try printing the value you're checking

It could be slightly different or something

[real crown]

Tried, it crashes with it being a nil value

[rotund sable]

How is printing a value crashing?

[real crown]

Like this, in the line where I have the print

[rotund sable]

I meant copy the entire thing into the print or assign that to a variable

and then print

[solid salmon]

ok guys

i fixed the joker

[long sun]

hihi! why is this patch not being applied?

[nova sleet]

Want to start modding Balatro... What programs do I need to start?

[solid salmon]

you need something that works with lua

and also steammodded and lovely

[nova sleet]

I am familiar with Lua from modding another game

[solid salmon]

good

[hushed field]

#1349064230825103441 also has a good amount of starter guides and info

[jovial wave]

quick question, how do I create a joker of a specified type?

[hushed field]

What do you mean with specified type?

[solid salmon]

like this?

or do you mean like

straight up making a joker

[jovial wave]

like I'm making a spectral card and I want it to create a joker that I made

[solid salmon]

like only that

[hushed field]

Oh, a specific joker. You can just pass the specific key along!

okay i've solved my problem 😭 it was commented out

oh yeah guys

how do i make my mod

cross mod compatible with fusion

without it being dependent

[long sun]

oh one more question

i've tried this code with SMODS.Planet and SMODS.Consumable, but neither worked. G.Phanta.thetrick_supported_planets is a list of keys (eg. "c_pluto", "c_venus")

what am i doing wrong?

[jovial wave]

ahh thx I just forgot the j_

[slim ferry]

you can add a dependencies field to objects, which is a table of mod id's

makes it not load unless that mod is present

alternatively you could next(SMODS.find_mod("<id>")) to check for the mod to skip loading a file entirely or smth

[solid salmon]

Othermod = {}
Othermod_Mod = SMODS.current_mod
Othermod_Config = Othermod_Mod.config

if next(SMODS.find_mod("FusionJokers")) and Othermod_Config.OtherFusions == true then
    Othe_has_Fusion = true
else
    Othe_has_Fusion = false
end

SMODS.load_file("Others/Othermod_Jokers.lua")()

if Othermod_Config.OtherFusions then
SMODS.load_file("Others/Fusions.lua")()

[slim ferry]

yeah you arent checking if fusionjokers is installed

you just set a flag and then never use it

[solid salmon]

soo

how do i check

correctly

[slim ferry]

check the flag you set

and not Othermod_Config.OtherFusions

since youre already checking for that anyway

[solid salmon]

so i remove the config part

[slim ferry]

no

well

i assume its actually an existing config option

[slim ferry]

ok

well

you set this very useful flag Othe_has_Fusion if the config option and fusion jokers are both enabled

so you should

use that

to check if you should load the file

[solid salmon]

uhhh

oh

do you want me to use Othe_has_fusion for the loading instead of OtherFusions

[slim ferry]

yes

[solid salmon]

ok

[slim ferry]

because then it actually checks if fusionjokers exists

[solid salmon]

alright

[pale holly]

how do you even enable it ?

[solid salmon]

it works now

[slim ferry]

[nova sleet]

can I even mod my game? I play the Xbox PC version of Balatro

Don't really see many guides for that

[slim ferry]

nope

[nova sleet]

frick

[slim ferry]

xbox store version isnt supported yet

it might in the future maybe sometime

[pale holly]

Thanks

[analog spoke]

anyone know how I'd make an edition that makes vouchers cost less?
it's been a while since I've done edition stuff lol

I already have the shader btw, incase u were curious lol

[slim ferry]

i imagine you would hook Card:set_cost()

[cobalt iron]

How would I destroy all cards held in hand?

[lyric wadi]

what's the area for consumable again

[slim ferry]

G.consumeables

[slim ferry]

SMODS.destroy_cards(G.hand.cards)

[cobalt iron]

Ah, alright thanks

[lyric wadi]

and how do i check what type of consumable it is

[slim ferry]

in what situation

[lyric wadi]

i want to check if it's a planet, and then get what hand it correspond to

kinda like observatory

[slim ferry]

did you check vanillaremade observatory...

[lyric wadi]

yes and i must've fucked up something

hence why i come here

[slim ferry]

whats the code

[lyric wadi]

if context.other_consumeable and context.other_consumable.ability.set == 'Planet' and context.other_consumable.ability.consumeable.hand_type == context.scoring_name then
            return {
                x_mult = 2,
                message_card = context.other_consumable
            }
        end```

this is literally just from observatory

crash message was something about context.other_consumable being nil or something i didnt get screenshot

[slim ferry]

oh

yeah because

its other_consumeable

you spelled it correctly in 2 places

[lyric wadi]

OKAY

then it's vanillaremade that's wrong

[slim ferry]

oh

lmfao

[lyric wadi]

minor spelling mistake

[wind steppe]

minor spelling correction mistake

[slim ferry]

accidentally spelled consumable correctly

🥀

[red flower]

:p

[lyric wadi]

heck

130 is

if context.other_consumeable and context.other_consumeable.ability.set == 'Planet' and 32 < card.ability.extra.wordAdded < 36 then

[slim ferry]

yeah you cant do that

[lyric wadi]

heck

[long sun]

omg it works

[lyric wadi]

can you not do chained inequality in lua

if yes then genuinely the first actual Lua L

[long sun]

also hai kusane :3

[lyric wadi]

other stuff i can put up with

[slim ferry]

you cant

[lyric wadi]

hihi ghostie :3 :3

[slim ferry]

it calculates the first one seperately

[long sun]

:3 :3 :3

[slim ferry]

and then it becomes true/false < some number

[lyric wadi]

:3 :3 :3

[slim ferry]

first ever python w over lua

[lyric wadi]

real

[pseudo furnace]

Is there a way to check jokers being moved?

[wind steppe]

talisman if it was smaller

[red flower]

i think you need to hook Node:stop_drag

[slim ferry]

smallnum

[pseudo furnace]

Thanks, I'll check it out

[rare torrent]

why is this nothing working for checking if there is a specific consumable in one of the consumable slots?

    local required = {
        c_omega_vaccum_tube = 1
    }
    local found = {
        c_omega_vaccum_tube = 0
    }
    for _, consumable in ipairs(G.consumeables.cards) do
        if consumable.key == "c_omega_vaccum_tube" then
            found.c_omega_vaccum_tube = found.c_omega_vaccum_tube + 1
        end
    end
    return found.c_omega_vaccum_tube >= 1
    end

[slim ferry]

it would be consumable.config.center.key

[rare torrent]

where?

[slim ferry]

instead of consumable.key

[rare torrent]

ok yeah that was it thank youuu

[long sun]

how do you add something to a card's name?

so eg. Pluto+ or Venus+++

<@&1133519078540185692>

[lyric wadi]

wha

[cobalt iron]

After it destroys the last card, an error pops up

[slim ferry]

which is...?

[slim ferry]

when are you destroying the cards

[cobalt iron]

after the hand is played

I'm using a joker

[slim ferry]

what context

[cobalt iron]

context.after

[slim ferry]

try putting the SMODS.destroy_cards in an event

[cobalt iron]

It crashed again with the same error

[slim ferry]

can you show line 2507 of SMODS/src/utils.lua in your lovely/dump

[cobalt iron]

This is what it shows

[slim ferry]

okay yeah i have no clue

[pseudo furnace]

This hook crashes so I think I'm doing smth wrong

[high quartz]

for some reason it's not recognizing my main.lua file

[slim ferry]

do you have a metadata file

[high quartz]

yeah haha

"main_file": "main.lua",

[slim ferry]

does it have all of the required fields entered

[red flower]

1. the ref variable is wrong, remove the (self) in the first line
2. stop_drag_update doesn't exist

[high quartz]

i just followed the documentation

[cobalt iron]

I think it has to do with the hand size that the joker adds? For some reason, if the joker increases hand size by 6 and then destroys the cards, it crashed the game. When I give the joker +5 hand size it doesn't crash at all.

[cobalt iron]

Even weirder, it crashes if I give it +6 hand size and play one card, if I play 2 cards, it doesn't crash.

[pseudo furnace]

So I should be doing this to an existing function in game?

[red flower]

that's what hooks are yes

[high quartz]

wait nvm

its just my visual studio thats restarded

[pseudo furnace]

So just to check, what a hook is is adding a certain script I want between two functions that are predetermined in game?

[warm gyro]

How can I get my voucher into a run?

[tranquil gull]

i think this art is good enough

not the best at drawing jimbo

[high quartz]

hahahhahahahaha

[tranquil gull]

by unique i mean like. if you score a card and then enhance it it's a different card. if you score two cards that have identical everything they're different cards still

might need a nerf tbh

[noble schooner]

yeah

[tranquil gull]

maybe +5

[noble schooner]

+2

[tranquil gull]

how about +3

[noble schooner]

especially since any modification to a card makes it considered a separate card iirc

so +2 seems good for a common like that to me

[tranquil gull]

well hang on

no i just realized thats not right based on how i implemented it

modifying cards doesn't count, the only way to get new unique cards is to add to the deck

[noble schooner]

unique cards makes me assume the same logic as The Pillar

[noble schooner]

that's

not how unique cards work in balatro

[tranquil gull]

it uses Card.unique_val :p

[noble schooner]

^
So any modification to a card considers it as a separate card

at least, I'm pretty sure

[tranquil gull]

i'm just like, how would i do it like how pillar does it
i. gotta look into that

or i could just do per unique rank/suit combination

[noble schooner]

that'd probably be better

keep it at +10 if you do that since it'll cap out at 52 scales anyways

assuming you aren't adding any ranks or suits

[tranquil gull]

stone cards make that 53 but yea

[noble schooner]

right

[tranquil gull]

either way, is that art passable?

for the joker i mean

[midnight trellis]

It looks good, I like it. I would make the glasses rectangular so that it leaves space in the corners that won't be covered by the orange eyelashes. You might also have to make the glasses a little bit bigger in such case. I would also make the shirt blue like Jimbo has, because orange and blue are complementary colors. If the shirt has to be orange in any case, make it a lighter/darker variation of the orange found in the eyelashes. The hair is spot on to me. Nice work.

[lavish elm]

how to do the calc_dollar_bonus without jokers?

[charred widget]

Hey folks. Today we're back with more work on my Balatro mod. This time, I'm attempting to program a voucher to allow Item consumables to show up in the shop when they normally aren't. Enjoy the video.

Anyways yeah I want to make a voucher allow a custom consumable type appear in the shops. any ideas how I could go about doing that?

[slim ferry]

what is the key of the consumable type

[frosty rampart]

the consumable's default shop rate should be 0, and then you can modify it when the voucher is redeemed

(documented here)

[charred widget]

just 'item'

[slim ferry]

ah well

it seems meta has already given the answer

[high quartz]

this might be slighty dumb, but do you just create the code in one long "main.lua" file with jokers blinds and so on?

havent coded in lua before

[slim ferry]

you can load other files by doing assert(SMODS.load_file("<path>"))()

[high quartz]

might have missed that in the documentation

[slim ferry]

im not even sure if it is in the documentation because i didnt know about it until i looked at vanillaremade using it

probably is because its rather important but ig its just very hidden then

[high quartz]

ahhhh I see

[red flower]

it's in the utility page

[high quartz]

ill kiss you

[slim ferry]

??

[high quartz]

thank you ❤️

Is there a way to remove the "Purcahse or use this card in an unseeded run to learn what it does"
so i can test the cards I have created

[frosty rampart]

unlock all

and if you want to spawn the card in, use debugplus

[high quartz]

ahhh alright

thanks 😛

guess I need to draw the cards before i insert them to test if its work

[wind steppe]

how do i stop a created card from coming with additional stickers?

i want to create a card with specific stickers and nothing else

[slim ferry]

Does the balatro font support the | character

try it and see

[slim ferry]

[solid salmon]

Can i have this

[signal plaza]

Ctrl + C to spawn
Ctrl + 2 to discover

[fossil ermine]

bump

[true jasper]

add an in pool function

[mystic river]

give them an in_pool function and have it use SMODS.find_card("joker key") to look for the joker you want

[fossil ermine]

kay :3

[mystic river]

it should return true if your desired conditions are met, and false if not
(it can also return true, {allow_duplicates = true } if you want the card able to show up multiple times without showman or equivalent, but that's a different story than what you're going for rn :v )

[slim ferry]

should be next(SMODS.find_card("joker key"))

[slim ferry]

since SMODS.find_card always returns at least an empty table

[mystic river]

right, right, next
because it returns a table of every found card

i always forget that

Barring my addition of the 'if then' line, it's all of Typograph from Grab Bag. How do I make it so that it looks at every joker held, and not just the one to it's right?

[fossil ermine]

so how do i test if it works

[bold sleet]

Hello. Is there a way to make so the atlas of say, a joker, does not include the mod's prefix?

[red flower]

yes, prefix_config

i think you do atlas = false

[bold sleet]

where do I define that?

In each joker?

[red flower]

yes

[granite jay]

Anyone know how to make it so you change which texture a joker uses when a config option is selected?

[bold sleet]

fuck

Well, I guess I now spend another hour of my life on that.

[crimson echo]

wsg chat

A friend of mine wanted me to gaslight you all into handing over your github usernames to help with a balatro mod we're working on

[bold sleet]

Further explain.

Also, is there a way to separate the atlas for the base part of the card and the soul part of the same card?

[crimson echo]

If i had to put it simply, Sonic 3 and Knuckles and Tails and John Minecraft Fishing Game of the Year Edition

[bold sleet]

So basically random bullshit go

[fossil ermine]

wait i forgot to specify this was for a legendary joker

[crimson echo]

in a way that's actually kind of cool yeah

[bold sleet]

What if I added whatever the fuck to balatro 36

[frosty rampart]

call card:set_sprite_pos in the joker's set_sprites function based on what the setting is set to

[bold sleet]

???

[crimson echo]

that i dont know, sadly

[bold sleet]

fucking dammit

[crimson echo]

wait, what do you mean by "soul" part?

[bold sleet]

You know the soul and legendary jokers, that they have part of their image as a separate part of the atlas.

[frosty rampart]

i don't think so
at least not easily

[bold sleet]

As if hovering over the normal card.

[red flower]

you would need a custom draw function/drawstep

[crimson echo]

I mean, if you wanted to, you could have them in seperate areas of the same atlas sprite and draw step them

[bold sleet]

I'll see what I can do.

[crimson echo]

elaborate

[bold sleet]

Basically the mod you described and want victims to help part-take in it.

[fossil ermine]

how do i make it so that a legendary joker can only appear from a soul once a specific joker is in the main joker slots

[crimson echo]

about, although not in such the scale as the r/balatro mod that some guy is already making

more like, add cool shit (and fishing)

[bold sleet]

...

Can I have a look at the mod?

[crimson echo]

sure, it's in a very unfinished state, we just started working on it

https://github.com/cole-mp3/jamod-web

i hope you have vscode-

[bold sleet]

good luck

I am currently juggling other mods and shit

[crimson echo]

oh that's fine then

if you decide to help out after you finish suffering, just- drop in unannounced-

good luck to you too

anyone else want to have a crack at this?

[elder rune]

Have never seen someone do something like this as a joker

[granite jay]

How do you get the value from the config?

like SMODS.current_mod.config_file.altsprinkle

[red flower]

config instead of config_file but yes

[granite jay]

Oh it's in jokers.lua not the main file

so current mod returns a nil value

wait i have an idea

nvm i just had to set a variable to SMODS.current_mod

[granite jay]

set_sprite_pos returned as a nil value

or like it attempted to call it when it was nil

[red flower]

it's card.children.center:set_sprite_pos

[high quartz]

this might be dumb, but do I have to draw the the jokers before I can test their functionality?

[frosty rampart]

no, you can just have a placeholder asset (or even just don't make the joker refer to a specific atlas, it'll point to the vanilla joker spritesheet)

[high quartz]

oh really? what would I use as the atlas reference?

i just took a random png

[frosty rampart]

Oops all 6s

[wintry swallow]

so earlier this morning i finally fixed the code for the unkillable sticker (which returns the attached card to the shop after sold or destroyed) and it works (at least for being sold, not sure about being destroyed yet) but after the joker it's attached to finishes triggering, i get the following crash error:

anyone mind helping me out?

[solid salmon]

Guys

I wanna make a pool

For cards and jokers that have no enhancements, seals and editions

How do i do that

[slim ferry]

you can force cards to generate without editions be adding no_edition = true to SMODS.add/create_card

[solid salmon]

Not generate

I want to make a group called "tainted"

[slim ferry]

okay but

[jolly shadow]

cards in the center pool do not have enhancements seals or editions by default

they only get them when u generate them

[slim ferry]

what does not having enhancements seals or editions have to do with this

[solid salmon]

Im trying to make a white deck

[slim ferry]

and what does it do

[solid salmon]

Non-tainted cards retrigger once (includes jokers)

[slim ferry]

so just cards without modifiers

[solid salmon]

Pretty much

(Also plan on making a joker based of said deck)

[slim ferry]

just use this but invert the checks to check if it doesnt have them https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#how-do-i-get-if-a-card-has-a-specific-editionenhancementsealsticker

for stickers you need to do a bit more if you want to include those but the others are simple enough

[solid salmon]

You mean stamps?

[slim ferry]

no

stickers like

eternal rental

that kinda stuff

[solid salmon]

Im not sure if i should include those

Oh wait

Yeah i should

[slim ferry]

a lot of modded modifiers are stickers under the hood

and for stickers youll have to do a loop across either SMODS.Stickers or SMODS.Sticker.obj_buffer since there isnt really a way to look for any sticker directly

so you need to check for every sticker key if a card has it

[solid salmon]

are there any truly symmetrical jokers

can someone link me to some information please, i am trying to import custom playing card textures for my mod, but it doesnt seem to be working

JooJ

Because of Joker text, I'm not sure any are truly symmetrical

[hardy viper]

oh true

[wispy falcon]

They look funny

almost

yeah i think they all have at least some text on them

and you dont do self.config.repetitions you do card.ability.extra.repetitions

does anyone know how i would make a seal retrigger the joker it's on

red seal no work it justt retriggers every card in hand if a joker exists with a red seal

[faint yacht]

That'd be context.retrigger_joker-related... as well as the optional feature of joker retriggers needing to be enabled.

[solid salmon]

Where do i add that?

[faint yacht]

SMODS.current_mod.optional_features = function()
    return { retrigger_joker = true }
end

for enabling said Joker retriggers... and for the Seal's calculate, you do

if context.retrigger_joker_check and context.other_card and context.other_card == card and card:get_seal() and card:get_seal() == 'your_seal' then
  return { repetitions = 1 }
end

I think?

[fluid steppe]

this is in SMODS.Seal:take_ownership('red_seal',{...})

god i hope this works

SMODS.Seal:take_ownership('red_seal',{
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.other_card==card then -- because there's no reason a red seal should be retriggering anything other than the card it's on.
            if context.repetition or context.retrigger_joker_check then
                return {
                    repetitions = card.ability.seal.extra.retriggers
                }
            end
        end
    end
    },
    true
)

and it doesnt.

oh my god

it's not even actually taking ownership

i swear to fucking god

[hardy viper]

is the key really red_seal

[fluid steppe]

if it's not i'm killing

ok i think it is

but then i have no idea wht the fucks happening

does take_ownership not work on seals or smth???

[red flower]

the key for red seal is "Red" im pretty sure

[fluid steppe]

why the fuck

[red flower]

red_seal is only for localization i think

[solemn shuttle]

eye of brainstorm

"i bought a property in balatro"

[fluid steppe]

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

ok so it's retriggering the joker but it's still retriggering played cards despite the card==context.other_card

[faint yacht]

context.cardarea == G.jokers?

'cause the card is the current card that's being checked, regardless if it's a playing card, Joker, Consumable, etc.

-# oops.

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1355819401198178455 also did a similiar thing, you can check how it implements.

[cunning valley]

Hello! Anyone happen to have the function that makes Idol choose a random card in your deck?

[true jasper]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/a670b00a4276d5f7982f5980453726e3cc7c8e28/src/jokers.lua#L3897

[feral tree]

how do i change g.sharedsoul

[red flower]

G.shared_soul = Sprite(<parameters>)

[cunning valley]

Splendid! Much appreciated!

However, for the description I want it to display them in the config. What values should I be placing in said config? since vremade doesn't use custom loc_txt

[feral tree]

i have not used sprite() before, mind showing me what those parameters are?

[red flower]

open sprite.lua

[true jasper]

look at the loc vars function above where the code is

[red flower]

the localization is in the localization/en-us.lua file which is the same as loc_txt btw

[fluid steppe]

check how it implements
how it implements it is completely redoing seals

ok what if i make it a brand new sticker that just looks like a red seal and just. lie

agh but then itll be compatible with other seals

wait why would that be a problem there shouldnt be a way for other seals to appear

[feral tree]

tried, fucked up and failed, can you just send me what works to change it?

[red flower]

change what

i dont have code ready for this

and im not going to do it for you

[quick prairie]

how do i manipulate values on a joker using another joker? I know I'm supposed to use Cryptlib or something but does anyone have an example

[true jasper]

look at how cryptid does it with oil lamp

[fluid steppe]

i got it fucking working aside from the visuals

i just need to a) make it not shiny and b) figure out how the fuck to make jokerdisplay work with this

neither of which i know how to do

[wanton wren]

wssp d ox

[elder rune]

Oops all immutable

[elder rune]

I had the same conundrum and someone sent me this https://github.com/Somethingcom515/SealsOnJokers/blob/main/main.lua#L3593-L3617

I got it working shortly after

[quick prairie]

i eventually figured it out, but getting it to work on specific jokers was annoying

[elder rune]

🔥

[red flower]

i can maybe help with c

whats the issue

[fluid steppe]

it's a sticker

how the fuck would you make a sticker add a retrigger to the joker its on

[red flower]

to a joker?

or a playing card?

[fluid steppe]

a joker

[elder rune]

context.retrigger_joker iirc

[fluid steppe]

this is for jokerdisplay

[red flower]

hook JokerDisplay.calculate_joker_triggers

[drifting topaz]

Im new to modding balatro how would I like detect when something happens like when a card is played/scored

I cant figure it out

😭

[red flower]

what's the objective?

[fluid steppe]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Calculate-Functions

oh i should prob explain before throwing a wiki page at you

uh

[drifting topaz]

I just want to test out stuff so I can come up with more ideas

[fluid steppe]

actually nevermind im too tired to

[drifting topaz]

But im trying to like make new stakes I guess

[red flower]

I need to know what kind of thing you want to do to help "detect when a card is played/scored" is too vague

[drifting topaz]

I dont really know how to explain it 😭

[fluid steppe]

well youre gonna have to if you want help

[frosty rampart]

^ try anyway
first, do you mean played or scored?
second, what do you want to do once you've detected it?

[fluid steppe]

btw this worked immediately which im not used to so. kudos

[drifting topaz]

How can I use this like globally

For like anything that happens

[frosty rampart]

do you actually want it globally, or for a specific stake

[fluid steppe]

you know thats actually something i wanna know too

[drifting topaz]

Specific stake

[red flower]

stakes have calculate functions

[elder rune]

Is this joker description understandable

[drifting topaz]

Oh 😭

[red flower]

(thanks to me)

[drifting topaz]

I couldnt tell

[fluid steppe]

oh neat

[drifting topaz]

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

It didnt have a thing for calculate

[red flower]

its very recent

[drifting topaz]

So I was confused

Thanks

[fluid steppe]

im goin to bed

awa

[frosty rampart]

i'd say something along the lines of "Every time Mult is earned, this Joker gains X1 Mult"
(assuming i interpreted it correctly)

[elder rune]

Nah

[fluid steppe]

hold on

[elder rune]

It's that every joker that gives mult. Will give a little more

+15 mult -> +16 mult
X5 -> X6

[red flower]

oh are those 2 different effects

[elder rune]

Yea

But it affects itself too

[red flower]

i would recommend capitalization at least, and a line break or multibox

[elder rune]

alr

And I guess it's also not gaining mult repetitively

[serene granite]

hey im trying to make an enhancement that makes it so cards cant get debuffed, is that possible with steamodded, i cant find how to do it in the guide

[frosty rampart]

SMODS.current_mod.set_debuff = function(card)
  if card.ability and card.ability.name == "m_modprefix_enhancementkey" then
    return "prevent_debuff"
  end
end

current_mod is literally "current_mod", but replace modprefix with your mod's actual prefix and enhancementkey with the key of your enhancement
put this in your main file, not in any enhancement definitions or whatever

[serene granite]

so i just put that in my main file, and replace the words and it will work ?

[true jasper]

yes

[serene granite]

ok lets tr y

[faint yacht]

SMODS.current_mod.set_debuff = function(card)
    if SMODS.has_enhancement(card, 'm_mod_key') then return 'prevent_debuff' end
end

?

[serene granite]

its still debuffed

[serene granite]

i can try this.. is is m_mod_key or enhancement, also should i make it captial letters in the text or no

[faint yacht]

togabalatro.set_debuff = function(card)
    if SMODS.has_enhancement(card, 'm_toga_nickel') then return 'prevent_debuff' end
end

is mine.

Where toga is my mod prefix and nickel is the key for my Nickel enhancement.

[serene granite]

ohhh ok

so i could use that? if i replace the first togabalatro with mymodkeybalatro.set_debuff?

[faint yacht]

togabalatro = SMODS.current_mod

[serene granite]

ohhh

sorry im so noobish to this haha

[faint yacht]

So was I back when I started.

[serene granite]

i understand

aw didnt work..

@faint yacht see

is that right or wrong

do i have to put it somewhere special

[frosty rampart]

that should be correct
is your mod prefix actually enchiridion? and is the enhancement's key actually slime?

[serene granite]

yeah i am pretty sure

oh wait

it wasnt

does capital letters matter

[frosty rampart]

it might yea

[serene granite]

omg it worked ! thank u so much

ok another question, sorry for asking a lot, but is it possible to make it so the same enhancement also makes the card count as a face card

i was reading the pereidolia example but i cant get it to fit into an enhancement the same way

[frosty rampart]

the vremade code for pareidolia is actually a bit hard to read, but you'd essentially just replace the snippet of next(SMODS.find_card("j_vremade_pareidolia")) with SMODS.has_enhancement(self, "full_enhancement_key") (where "full_enhancement_key" is the same string that you used in the set_debuff function earlier)

[serene granite]

ooo ok let me give it a shot

it freaking worked you genius !

[frosty rampart]

happy to help

[chrome widget]

Ui scaling is making me want to die but

weird inconsistent scaling between different text items based on the scaling of other text items and I haven't figured how best to clamp it

[copper perch]

So, I was testing a joker of mine in multiplayer and it crashed the game. I got the crash log and have the code, any help would be greatly appreciated! Trying to make it so a card deletes after a blind. It can do that in vanilla but I'd like it to work in multiplayer too if possible

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.remove_playing_cards and not context.blueprint then
            local destroyed_cards = 0
            for _, removed_card in ipairs(context.removed) do
                destroyed_cards = destroyed_cards + 1
            end
            if destroyed_cards > 0 then
                card.ability.extra.xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult + destroyed_cards * card.ability.extra.xmult_gain
                    return {
                        message = localize {
                        type = 'variable',
                        key = 'a_xmult',
                        vars = {
                            card.ability.extra.xmult
                        }
                    },
                }
            end
        end
        if context.joker_main then
            return {
            xmult = card.ability.xmult
            }
        end
        if context.end_of_round and not context.game_over and context.main_eval and not context.blueprint then
            local card_ = pseudorandom_element(G.hand.cards, 'seed')
            SMODS.destroy_cards(card_, nil, true)
        end
    end

[red flower]

unless it just updated, multiplayer requires an earlier smods

[copper perch]

Really?? Its been working just fine without my mod so thats weird, but thank you! What version would I need?

[red flower]

711

[copper perch]

and with the code above would any of it need to be changed going back to that older version?

[red flower]

i dont think so

[copper perch]

Alright, thank you for the help! I'll try that out tomorrow

[serene granite]

what do i use to make it so a card has the same glass destroy effect

like my enhancements

[faint yacht]

Hook SMODS.shatters(card).

[serene granite]

oohh ok

[faint yacht]

...actually, wait, the shatters could be defined in the Enhancement definition, I think.

As it checks for G.P_CENTERS[key].shatters...

[serene granite]

hmm

i think ill try to fix it tomorrow.. ill move on for now

[frosty rampart]

yea lol https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Enhancement

[serene granite]

why is my joker appering in the shop multiple times without show man

[frosty rampart]

if you spawned it in with debugplus, it doesn't get taken out of the pool for some reason

it should be fine in normal gameplay

[serene granite]

ohh ok

good to know

[faint yacht]

Probably had been updated since last time I actually did stuff with enhancements--
ItsFlowwey edited this page 2 weeks ago That'd explain it.

[red flower]

that one was a bit older

[serene granite]

ok last question i will ask tonight !
i want to make a joker that scales with hand size

so like if u have the juggler lets say then you get more mult, is it possible to track hand size like that? or like each additional hand size gained

i guess for more info, it gives 15 mult for every additional hand size the player has

[daring fern]

G.hand.config.card_limit-8?

[faint yacht]

...and I was mainly referencing what I already had for my enhancements since 1.2.0.

[serene granite]

oo ok, so this will be able to tell every additonal hand after the default?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[serene granite]

how would i impliment that, like where?

[daring fern]

card.ability.extra.mult*(G.hand.config.card_limit-8)

[serene granite]

oooo

okok

[high quartz]

whoever told me how to fix the assets is a fucking g

sorry my language

[red river]

what in-game function or tidbit of code is responsible for displaying boss blind's ability text in the middle of the screen? i'm trying to change boss blind ability mid-round and the text doesn't seem to be affected

[daring fern]

Game:update?

[red river]

that seems too broad... which specific part of it displays boss blind text?

nevermind, i think i found it(?)

anyway, thanks

[prisma loom]

Folks, Im trying to add a +1 card choice in packs as a passive effect for the deck but can't understand why it's not working

any ideas?

[daring fern]

Yes, it's G.GAME.modifiers.booster_choice_mod also it would go in apply

[prisma loom]

👌

[long sun]

what contexts run when my Joker is selected or deselected?

also, i've heard that you can play a sound when returning a message, how do you do that?

[daring fern]

sound = 'modprefix_key'

[prisma loom]

It says error is now here

[long sun]

thanks ^^

[prisma loom]

14

[long sun]

i'm gonna look at yahimod to see how it handles the selection thing, so dw about answering that

[daring fern]

G.GAME.modifiers.booster_choice_mod = (G.GAME.modifiers.booster_choice_mod or 0) + 1

[prisma loom]

👌

[slim ferry]

can i reuse the operator used for scaling in calc_scaling when its a function or will whatever extra local variables it uses no longer exist?

[lavish elm]

how do I modify the amount of dollars given at the cashout screen?

[slim ferry]

if youre just adding new rows (like gold joker), then use calc_dollar_bonus while checking gold joker or some other joker like that in vanillaremade for reference

[lavish elm]

I am trying to do it with a consumable

[solid salmon]

    key = "white",
    loc_txt = {
      name = 'White Deck',
      text = {'{C:attention}retriggers{} unmodified cards'}
   },
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    config = {repetitions = 1},
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return {vars = {self.config.repetitions}}
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.cardarea == G.play and context.repetition then
            if card.seal == nil then
                return {
                repetitions = self.config.repetitions,
                }
            end
        if context.retrigger_joker_check then
            return{

}
SMODS.Atlas {
    key = "white",
    path = "White_Deck.png",
    px = 71,
    py = 95
}```
guys i need help, this code works BUT not in the contexts i want it to

like i said yesterday its supposed to retrigger non-modified cards

but right now

it retriggers ALL CARDS

excluding jonklers

wait

why do i even have a config for the repetitions if its only one?

[daring fern]

if (context.repetition and context.cardarea == G.play) or context.retrigger_joker_check then
    if not (context.other_card.edition or next(SMODS.get_enhancements(context.other_card)) or context.other_card:get_seal()) then
        return {repetitions = card.effect.config.repetitions}
    end
end

[solid salmon]

thx

[vast night]

Hey everyone. I just had a quick curiosity question: What does dq_1 do in localization? I've never seen this in game

dq_1={
  "Yikes! I hope you",
  "have a few tricks",
  "up your sleeve for",
  "this final challenge!",
},

[slim ferry]

unused text for jimbo when entering ante 8 if i had to assume

its not actually used or referenced anywhere afaik so its hard to have more than a guess

[solid salmon]

uhhh

the code works but crashes at the joker part

i know i need the optional features but where do i implement it?

[daring fern]

Log?

[solid salmon]

also do i need to make a variable for something that only happens once?

like only 1 retrigger

[wintry swallow]

hey yall :3

[daring fern]

I fixed the code.

[wintry swallow]

how do i get into balala modding this shi confusing asf 😭

[solid salmon]

ik that

but this context.retrigger_joker_check

needs me to add optional features

[daring fern]

SMODS.current_mod.optional_features = function()
    return {
        retrigger_joker = true,
    }
end

[solid salmon]

where do i add that

[daring fern]

#1349064230825103441 message

[wintry swallow]

ty my legendary joker <3

[lavish elm]

in your main file

[solid salmon]

ok

[red river]

how can i get a list of all existing boss blinds in the game as objects? neither G.P_BLINDS or SMODS.Blinds seem to return expected results

G.P_BLINDS is the closest bet but it doesn't take modded boss blinds into account. and SMODS.Blinds returns only 10 boss blinds in a... random manner(?)

[daring fern]

No, G.P_BLINDS should have every blind.

[red river]

so i have to... add that manually with a patch. do other mods do that too?

[slim ferry]

no

G.P_BLINDS already has every blind

youre either doing something wierdly or breaking it and its probably the former since otherwise some blinds just wouldnt exist

[red river]

ok, lemme triple check that...

[slim ferry]

if youre just looking at what vscode shows when hovering it then that wont have everything

fyi

[red river]

okay it works, i forgot to put quotation marks around bl_jd_snecko in local blindcopy = G.P_BLINDS["bl_jd_snecko"]

thanks!

[solid salmon]

ok

yeah i added the optional stuff

but the code you sent kept crashing

[red river]

actually i code everything in notepad. i only occasionally look at my code in vscode to see the number of the string

[solid salmon]

(also it cant be card.effect because the deck will crash)

also

context.retrigger_joker_check

[daring fern]

Log?

[solid salmon]

i used the "fixed" code

but i changed the card.effect to self

because if i keep it as card then it crashes

...

[solid salmon]

heck this

for now it'll just retrigger playing cards

oh wait

ortalab has retrigged jokers

[hybrid iris]

im really irritated by this one thing im working on but I have no idea how to fix it
for some reason, the game refuses to display things in my custom collection in load order and i cant figure out Why

[lavish pine]

I have a lot of textures I've drawn for a high quality texture pack im making but i've got no idea how to import them, could someone help me?

[spare wren]

how would i create a specific joker using this function? like this?

local card = create_card('Joker', G.jokers, nil, 0, nil, nil, "customjoker", 'chr')

because even with the prefix included (mod_customjoker) this seems to give a center not found error (which is basically telling me it couldnt find a card to generate)

[spare wren]

G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
    func = function() 
        local card = create_card('Joker', G.jokers, nil, 0, nil, nil, "customjoker", 'chr')
        card:add_to_deck()
        G.jokers:emplace(card)
        card:start_materialize()
        G.GAME.joker_buffer = 0
        return true
    end}))   

in full

[daring fern]

SMODS.add_card({key = 'j_modprefix_key'})

[spare wren]

local card = SMODS.add_card(...) ... G.GAME.joker_buffer = 0; return true or just this function by itself?

does the function handle the adding to deck and such part by itself or

[daring fern]

Yes.

[spare wren]

do i still have to wrap it in an event?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[spare wren]

okay thank you

[spare wren]

G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
    func = function() 
        SMODS.add_card({key = 'j_blr_observatorium'})
        return true
    end}))   

this still seems to give the same error unfortunately, my mod prefix is blr and my joker key is observatorium

[daring fern]

Did you save the file?

[spare wren]

yup

ill try again

just in case

yup

[daring fern]

If you remove that does it not crash?

[spare wren]

nope its still crashing

this is my full code if it changes anything

if context.end_of_round and not context.individual and not context.repetition and not context.blueprint then
    card.ability.extra.rounds_remaining = card.ability.extra.rounds_remaining - 1
    if card.ability.extra.rounds_remaining == 0 then
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            func = function()
                card.T.r = -0.2
                card:juice_up(0.3, 0.4)
                card.states.drag.is = true
                card.children.center.pinch.x = true
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({trigger = 'after', delay = 0.3, blockable = false,
                    func = function()
                        G.jokers:remove_card(card)
                        card:remove()
                        card = nil
                    return true; end})) 
                return true
            end
        }))
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            func = function() 
                SMODS.add_card({key = 'j_blr_epinephrine'})
                return true
            end}))   
        return {
            message = "UNBOUND",
            colour = G.C.GREEN
        }
    end
end

first event was just stolen from gros michel, the second is what you said to do

i replaced observatorium with another joker from my mod (which also exists, i definitely know that)

[solid salmon]

    key = "white",
    loc_txt = {
      name = 'White Deck',

    config = {repetitions = 1},
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)

my deck is pissing me of

it works perfectly well WITHOUT the context.retrigger_joker_check

but if i try implementing it

before you say anything about the vars

card.extra.ability.repetitions will crash the game

i kept it as self.config.repetitions cause thats the only one that works for the deck

also for no reason this is what it looks like

[red flower]

jokers dont have enhancements

[solid salmon]

ok

but hypothetically

[red flower]

wdym hypothetically, thats the issue

[solid salmon]

what if someone uses one of those mods that does make it like that

[red flower]

theres no mod that does that

and they would require its own functions if there was

[solid salmon]

okie dokie

[red flower]

because enhancements and jokers are the same thing in code basically

[solid salmon]

also

in terms of balance

how op is anything that can retrigger non-modified jokers

[red flower]

very

[solid salmon]

as in no stickers, editions, enhancements etc

[red flower]

very

i dont think balance matters for a deck tho

[solid salmon]

ok

seems balanced

not installing cryptid

...

oh no

now theres a new unintentional error.

[peak coral]

"they stop when cryptid works"

[solid salmon]

playing cards NOW RETRIGGERS TWICE

also i am going to make a joker based of this deck

imma nerf white deck alil

it will retrigger non playing cards

and have a 1 in 3 chance to retrigger non modified jokers

[elder rune]

im trying to add a new consumable set but it just looks like this in the game

[slim ferry]

Content Set is not a thing, its just something that cryptid adds for its gamesets.

[elder rune]

ah

then what do I use

[slim ferry]

under misc.dictionary you should have k_<key> for the label on the card and b_<key>_cards for the name in the collection

[elder rune]

k_br_ops?

[slim ferry]

just k_ops, consumabletypes dont use a mod prefix

[solid salmon]

k i fixed it

[elder rune]

like this?

Okay yeah the name shows up but not the color

[cunning valley]

I'm trying to make a poker hand type that has an Ace and two 6s (A55)! How would I go about detecting if two fives are played?

[frosty rampart]

in the poker hand's evaluate function, parts._2 is a list containing every pair in the played hand (as their own lists). you'd loop over that to check if it contains a list of cards that are all 5s

[cunning valley]

i see! not sure how to do that, but i think this info will be useful

(first time with poker hands btw)

[frosty rampart]

yea it's a little hard to explain lol

[cunning valley]

havent tested it but i'm 100% sure it'll fail cuz i've never done this before

nonetheless, i think i have a bit of a sketch of how I want things to work

[elder rune]

[vast night]

Hey i just had a random thought and searching it on google didn't help. Are you able to define a mod, inside a mod? Because some mods like hot potato, did do that or something similar

[red flower]

i dont think hot potato does that

[vast night]

could be that i just looked at the files for a too short time

[red flower]

i dont think you can

[pseudo furnace]

Is there a function yo update loc_vars without hovering over it?

[red flower]

well maybe multiple jsons works

[red flower]

why

[frosty rampart]

hotpot defines global tables that contain relevant functions/definitions/etc from each team, usually mods only have to do that once but because of the nature of hotpot development I imagine multiple teams did it

[solid salmon]

GUYS

oh wait

im a hecking moron

[vast night]

ok hi again. this time it's a real question being: how are notifications (a bit like the achievments popup). i couldn't even find a reference to that. also while i'm asking are there also ways to overlay an image/gui component over an arbitrary position on the screen

[azure valley]

The way that the achievements popup works is given in functions/common_events.lua line 1772, notify_alert

maybe you can adapt that code for your purposes.

[solid salmon]

guys

[elder rune]

spit on that thang

[solid salmon]

this code keeps making playing cards retrigger twice

(pretend the repetitions = 0 is actually repetitions = self.config.repetitions)

[elder rune]

no I dont want to

[slim ferry]

why is odds even there you dont use probabilities anywhere

[solid salmon]

i forgot

[slim ferry]

also

idk how its retriggering twice because it just shouldnt do that

[azure valley]

Is there a built in way to split a pool into multiple weighted pools? For instance, let's say I added a bunch of powerful planet cards, but I'd like them to show up at a lower rate than regular planet cards. Is there a way to do this?

[solid salmon]

idk either

[azure valley]

using 'hidden' isn't ideal because that restricts it to the packs, and due to the sequential nature of the 'hidden' items drawing it means that early items are more likely than later ones.

[elder rune]

pretty sure Mayhem does that

[daring fern]

Yes, make them their own consumable type.

[elder rune]

im retriggering my problem

[elder rune]

[solid salmon]

i fixed it

by nerfing it

i gave the joker retrigger and the card retrigger a 1/2 chance to activate

[elder rune]

crazy

[slim ferry]

oh wait

i know the issue

with the first thing

[elder rune]

Why wont the damn color show up

[slim ferry]

i know it now

just remembered that

decks can be retriggered with retrigger_joker_check

just check that the thing being retriggered isnt itself

[solid salmon]

huh

thats literally what i used

[slim ferry]

try adding context.other_card ~= card to the retrigger joker thing

[elder rune]

deck totally being a card 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥

[azure valley]

Can you get a weighted pool inside of another pack though?

[solid salmon]

YAY

[fossil ermine]

^

[elder rune]

I mean you could just make the joker destroy itself and create another from the same pool but it'd probably look weird

[slim ferry]

?

[daring fern]

in_pool = function() return next(SMODS.find_card('j_modprefix_key')) end

[red river]

add in_pool function to the joker (similiarly to how caven- jinx

[fossil ermine]

legendary-

[slim ferry]

yes

?

what about it being legendary

[red river]

that should work for legendary jokers aswell..?

[slim ferry]

in_pool still works

[fossil ermine]

whuh

[slim ferry]

i dont see why the soul would ignore in_pool

nothing else does

[elder rune]

I have such visionary solutions but of course there's just a SMODS function

When will Apple Store modded release

[slim ferry]

what

[slim ferry]

what smods function

in_pool is a vanilla thing

[elder rune]

Oh

Tomato tomato

[slim ferry]

and also what you said doesnt even do the same thing

[red river]

how do i display boss blind ability text above player's hand manually? doing this for a boss blind that changes its ability each hand and needs to display it every hand

i tried modifying base-game code but trying to re-use it looks like this

[slim ferry]

look at how plasma deck displays its "balanced" text

[fossil ermine]

[slim ferry]

thats probably somewhat like what you want

[slim ferry]

what does the in_pool look like?

[red river]

i'll look into that...

[solid salmon]

GOOD NEWS

MY DECK AND JONKLER WORKS

[slim ferry]

no like

the code

[fossil ermine]

12 end

[slim ferry]

yeah you shouldnt return a table

remove the brackets

[fossil ermine]

oh wait

the {}

[slim ferry]

tables are truthy so what you had before didnt do anything because of that

[red river]

that's it, yep! i was looking at the wrong thing the enitre time. thank you!

the same method used by plasma deck is used in blind.lua

[fossil ermine]

moment

( 1st one is not joker im tryna delete from soul pool )

does legendary jokers automatically force itself out of shop pool

[slim ferry]

yeah legendary rarity cant be rolled

[fossil ermine]

kay

so this should work

[slim ferry]

yeah

[fossil ermine]

works yay :3

thx

[chrome widget]

More UI scaling hell today

[gilded goblet]

may god have mercy on your soul

[fossil ermine]

the xmult comes before the message here i wannya it to come after but usin extra = { Xmult = card.ability.extra.xmultvar } at the end of the return no worky even thos its worked to put it last for others

[copper perch]

I return from last night with the same bugs, I'm wanting this card to work in multiplayer (it deletes a card in hand at end of the round). If you win 1st in a PvP blind though, it crashes (I'm like 80% sure thats the source anyways). My code is below, any help is greatly appreciated :)

calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.remove_playing_cards and not context.blueprint then
            local destroyed_cards = 0
            for _, removed_card in ipairs(context.removed) do
                destroyed_cards = destroyed_cards + 1
            end
            if destroyed_cards > 0 then
                card.ability.extra.xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult + destroyed_cards * card.ability.extra.xmult_gain
                    return {
                        message = localize {
                        type = 'variable',
                        key = 'a_xmult',
                        vars = {
                            card.ability.extra.xmult
                        }
                    },
                }
            end
        end
        if context.joker_main then
            return {
            xmult = card.ability.xmult
            }
        end
        if context.end_of_round and not context.game_over and context.main_eval and not context.blueprint then
            local card_ = pseudorandom_element(G.hand.cards, 'seed')
            SMODS.destroy_cards(card_, nil, true)
        end
    end

[rocky plaza]

I am having a really strange bug
the print statement is showing 5 but only the lowest ranked card is being scored when i play the hand

[daring fern]

return {returned_hand}

[rocky plaza]

oh lmao

missed the extra curly braces when looking at another example custom hand impl

[fluid steppe]

how would/could i access the badge that's erroring so i know how to fix it
can you get to it through G.jokers.cards[1]?
-# given it's in the first joker slot ofc

notably this is actually a sticker that just looks like a red seal

putting actual red seal on a joker instead retriggers every card that's held in hand

[lone oyster]

my joker is working perfectly

[fluid steppe]

lmao

[slim ferry]

h

how

😨

[lone oyster]

multiplying instead of adding

for the lols
