[slim ferry]

you just didnt close the SMODS.Joker

[viscid talon]

LOL

oke

[native bone]

This code is supposed to trigger when 5 seals are scored in the same hand. But it does not trigger at all. And I do not understand why, I've been tinkering with the code and yet it doesnt work.

[viscid talon]

oh i got another error

[slim ferry]

code?

[viscid talon]

this is the code for "night vision" (reworked)

    key = "nightvision",
    config = {
        extra = {
            amogus = 0,
            index = 0
        }
    },}
    loc_txt = {
        ['name'] = 'Night Vision',
        ['text'] = {
            [1] = 'Copies ability of',
            [2] = 'a random {C:attention}Joker{}',
            [3] = 'every round',
            [4] = '{C:inactive}(Currently #1#){}'
        },
        ['unlock'] = {
            [1] = ''
        }
    },
    pos = {
        x = 0,
        y = 0
    },
    display_size = {
        w = 71 * 1, 
        h = 95 * 1
    },
    cost = 4,
    rarity = 3,
    blueprint_compat = false,
    eternal_compat = true,
    perishable_compat = true,
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = true,
    atlas = 'Joker',

    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        
        return {vars = {card.ability.extra.amogus}}
    end,

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if (context.selling_card and context.card.sort_id == card.ability.extra.target or context.setting_blind) and not context.blueprint then
        local compatible = {}
        for _, c in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
            if c.config.center.blueprint_compat then
                compatible[#compatible+1] = c
            end
        end
        local new_target = pseudorandom_element(compatible, "seed")
        if new_target then card.ability.extra.target = c.sort_id end
    end
    for _, c in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
        if c.sort_id == card.ability.extra.target then
            return SMODS.blueprint_effect(c, context)
        end
    end
end

[slim ferry]

probably this

that doesnt look right at least

[viscid talon]

oh hm

should it be smth like

}```

[slim ferry]

no that bracket just shouldnt be there

[viscid talon]

oh odd

[elder rune]

the lua does not care about spaces

[slim ferry]

also SMODS.Joker is still not being closed

unless that just wasnt in the copy paste

[viscid talon]

it goes green whenever i close it

[slim ferry]

wdym green

[viscid talon]

guessing its because --Night Vision is a text thing?

wait no it would be orange

[slim ferry]

its a comment

[viscid talon]

i must be getting mixed up with javascript i think

[slim ferry]

but also

youre supposed to close the joker like. after all of the joker stuff

put the closing bracket after the end of calculate

[viscid talon]

done!!!!!

thank youuu

lets test

did it after alias joker

NOOO ITS STILL BROKEN

[slim ferry]

what happens now

[viscid talon]

idk, but i think i know how to fix it

ok the code rn is ```SMODS.Joker{ --Night Vision
key = "nightvision",
config = {
extra = {
}
},
loc_txt = {
['name'] = 'Night Vision',
['text'] = {
[1] = 'Copies ability of',
[2] = 'a random {C:attention}Joker{}',
[3] = 'every round',
[4] = '{C:inactive}(Currently #1#){}'
},
['unlock'] = {
[1] = ''
}
},
pos = {
x = 0,
y = 0
},
display_size = {
w = 71 * 1,
h = 95 * 1
},
cost = 4,
rarity = 3,
blueprint_compat = false,
eternal_compat = true,
perishable_compat = true,
unlocked = true,
discovered = true,
atlas = 'Joker',

loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
    
    return {vars = {}}
end

calculate = function(self, card, context)
if (context.selling_card and context.card.sort_id == card.ability.extra.target or context.setting_blind) and not context.blueprint then
    local compatible = {}
    for _, c in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
        if c.config.center.blueprint_compat then
            compatible[#compatible+1] = c
        end
    end
    local new_target = pseudorandom_element(compatible, "seed")
    if new_target then card.ability.extra.target = c.sort_id end
end
for _, c in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
    if c.sort_id == card.ability.extra.target then
        return SMODS.blueprint_effect(c, context)
    end
end

end
}```

[slim ferry]

missing , after the loc_vars

[viscid talon]

the error is

oh oke

[slim ferry]

oh

well u thunk

[viscid talon]

hmm

[slim ferry]

i think

since that crash is not on the same line idk

[viscid talon]

me thunk>??????

unexpected = on line 36

oh it opens now

i just got rid of loc vars

time for more testing

[slim ferry]

you probably will need loc_vars if you want the joker to be displayed in the description

eventually

[viscid talon]

yeah ur right

i dont want it displayed, that was just for testing

[slim ferry]

anyway im doing a wild guess that the loc_vars is line 36 and you did not put the comma after the end of loc vars

[viscid talon]

attempted to index field "atlas" (a null value)

oh i did that and it had the same error

[slim ferry]

okay this means the atlas doesnt exist (for some reason)

idk how that happens but uhhhhh

[viscid talon]

maybe the atlas should be customjokers

thats the case for dawn, dakimakura, etc

[slim ferry]

look for an SMODS.Atlas

or all of them idk where jf puts them

[viscid talon]

i launched it and for some reason "Night Vision" had the same art as another joker

[slim ferry]

okay then open the image file and correct the pos in the joker

the top-left sprite being { x= 0, y = 0 }

[split acorn]

Hello everyone

Is anyone able to explain why

When I enable or disable pixel art smoothing, the changes caused by this code are reverted?

I'm trying to change the color of the cards from white to black

[slim ferry]

do you have both a 1x and 2x image

in the assets

[elder rune]

comment

[split acorn]

yes, i thought that was the problem but not rly

[slim ferry]

odd

[split acorn]

if im inside a game with 1x texture and click on "pixel art smoothing" the texture goes white

but if i leave run and go to the main menu, i'll se the 2x texture being applied

does my explanation make sense?

[slim ferry]

thats really wierd

idk what could cause that tbh

[split acorn]

it is! thanks anyways

[viscid talon]

new error

attempt to globalise c, im guessing c is meant to be local

do i wrote "local c"

for local c in ipairs?

[slim ferry]

no

[viscid talon]

oh hm

line 47: if new_target then card.ability.extra.target = c.sort_id end

[slim ferry]

oh wait

[viscid talon]

it presumes c is a null value

[slim ferry]

it should be

new_target.sort_id

mb

[viscid talon]

what does . mean btw?

is it like "new target" matches "sort id" ?

[slim ferry]

. indexes a table

[viscid talon]

whats a table?

index im guessing is a set value

[slim ferry]

variable that has a bunch of other values in it

new_target.sort_id gets the value sort_id in table new_target

[viscid talon]

i see

so a variable with a group of values..

[slim ferry]

they are also a bit funny in how they work

[viscid talon]

same error

hrmb

[slim ferry]

no i meant

c.sort_id should be new_target.sort_id instead

[viscid talon]

o oke

``` ?

[slim ferry]

yes

[viscid talon]

new error

[slim ferry]

buh

that shouldnt happen i dont think

idk how it would happen

[pure salmon]

how would i check if a card has retriggered during a hand

[wind steppe]

i’d implement a retrigger context (unless that’s in newest smods idk) and set a value on the card when it retriggers

[slim ferry]

set a flag in context.individual

[wind steppe]

or that

[slim ferry]

and if its already set when it triggers then set a different flag to destroy it

[wind steppe]

yeah nvm thats better

[stiff locust]

how do I hide an entire consumable set in the collection

I don't want it to have a button in the consumables section

[slim ferry]

SMODS.ConsumableType can have a no_collection

[stiff locust]

oh

cool

[sweet pelican]

Is it possible to have multiple sounds play sequentially in a joker return? I want to use multiple of the "voice" sound files that jimbo uses to imitate the joker talking during scoring

a single voice file is like one syllable

first time using sound and I couldnt find anything on multiple files on the smods github* unless I missed something

[sage crater]

Bump

[long sun]

is there a way to check if a card isn't already in existence, or is able to exist multiple times?

this is for a call to create_card

or if there's a way to let SMODS select a card from a table to create, that'd work too

[stiff locust]

if I set a card to be hidden can it still be spawned by effect like "creates a spectral card"

[long sun]

no

[stiff locust]

ok

[long sun]

if in_pool is false then no

[reef bobcat]

hi, how do I make a joker apply debuffs to certain cards? I've been using jokerforge so far to create my mod but the program can't do everything, so I'm trying to get better at actually coding (tho im very beginner)

[charred widget]

Hi lads, I'm trying to import a deck into my mod, but it's giving me this error. Would anyone know what the problem might be?

[crystal perch]

how do i get the # of chips a playing card scores for, including things like enhancements & perm bonuses (like from hiker)

[slim ferry]

Card:get_chip_bonus()

[viscid talon]

trying to make a joker that tracks retriggers

i made a retrigger counting flag but idk how to like

acc implement it LOL

the random joker night vision thing isnt working so i changed its effect to something more simple

maybe that wont work either

hmmm

i need to give night vision a good effect 😭

[plucky berry]

how do you make custom shop slots?

[vocal helm]

For a SMODS.DeckSkin, how would I use the table-style pos_style? I'm not sure how the using-rank-as-key thing works
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.DeckSkin

[tight pumice]

Is there a way to go about having a joker make a card count for more than one enhancement?

[vocal helm]

quantum enhancements

[granite jay]

Anyone know how to make a joker trigger other playing cards if a certain playing card is triggered?

[slim ferry]

SMODS.score_card(card, contex) scores a card with the given context table

I assume thats what youre looking for

[sweet pelican]

I'm getting this error on boot, any clue how to fix this? I assume something is wrong with my atlas in my main .lua file but I can't seem to find it.

my assets are in mod>assets>x2 (and x1)> WebsJokers.PNG

nvm fixed it

I was missing
atlas_table = "ASSET_ATLAS"

[mystic river]

create_card() has a soulable parameter; hidden cards can only be created if it's true

[stiff locust]

right

[frosty rampart]

hidden cards still count as hidden even for the set they actually count as

[mystic river]

yes

[frosty rampart]

(that's why the soul and black hole are still rarer than other spectral cards in spectral packs)

[mystic river]

i guess they can also be created if their key is passed directly but that's not what anyone was asking about :v

[solid salmon]

Is there a method or context that can change rarity weights

[frosty rampart]

i think it's just a variable in G or G.GAME that you can change

like one variable for each rarity

lemme check in-game real quick

[sweet pelican]

Trying to play a sound in joker scoring, any help would be extremely appreciated 😭

[jolly shadow]

its just bigmoney.ogg you dont need to add assets/sounds/

[sweet pelican]

okay I'll give that a try, thank you

you're my fucking goat thank you king

🙏

[frosty rampart]

by altering the value of G.GAME.raritykey_mod, where raritykey is the full key of the rarity (common/uncommon/rare for vanilla rarities), it changes the rates that that rarity will spawn at. all the rarity_mod values start at 1 for the default value i think, increasing it above one makes them more common and decreasing it below one makes them less common

[jolly shadow]

🫡

[solid salmon]

So if i wanted to increase higher rarities chances to appear id have to add +1?

[frosty rampart]

or more if you're still not satisfied with how much the chance increases, but yes that's the idea

[crystal perch]

here's the wiki link explaining how to do that
https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#quantum_enhancements

though keep in mind that quantum enhancements can be a bit laggy at times

[solid salmon]

Is there a context for entering the shop

[jolly shadow]

starting_shop

[gilded narwhal]

hey so for scale_card on context.individual, I don't like how it shows the message before the card scores, is there a way to do it so the message shows afteR?

[native bone]

How do you score a card in hand? Not like Steel cards that do something when held in hand but like score them?

[sweet pelican]

is there a context I can check for to make sure a consumable can only be used in a blind? like not during a shop or something similar?

oh would it be hand_drawn?

that makes sense nvm lol

[red flower]

there's no context in can_use but for this you can return G.GAME.blind.in_blind

[sweet pelican]

ohhhhh wonderful, thank you very much :)

[azure valley]

@jolly shadow I figured out the issue. It has to do with the order that events were entered into the event queue. To get the ordering properly, you actually need to nest events. This was, eventually, the completely correct code.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkhVr0IWNfY

Thank you for your help. 😄

[umbral zodiac]

oh my god

[azure valley]

yeah, it's pretty cursed

[hardy viper]

?????????????

at least it's commented ..

[vale zinc]

@umbral zodiac, here's the basic structure of what I'm doing:

-- the variable
local active_message = localize {
    type = 'variable',
    key = 'k_lapsems_when_ready',
    vars = {
        localize('k_active_ex')
    }
}

-- the localization file
return {
    misc {
        dictionary {
            k_lapsems_when_ready = "Displays \"#1#\" when ready",
        }
    }
}

[umbral zodiac]

ya try putting the loc entry into descriptions.Other rather than misc.dictionary

[umbral zodiac]

descriptions.Other not misc.descriptions

like this example from another mod

[umbral zodiac]

what does your localization file look like

[umbral zodiac]

yeah im just gonna say sorry i completely misunderstood the problem from the beginning because i was heavy multitasking and only half reading

[gilded narwhal]

is it just me or did smods change the animation on wee joker

[unkempt bronze]

The timing for stuff like Gros Michel is also a touch off, now that you bring it up.

[gilded narwhal]

i'm not a fan

PLEASE smods fix it 🙏

[sage crater]

third bump for the night 😔

it's been 7 hours 😩

[azure valley]

Did you make sure that the function add_to_deck is running as you expect?

because I'm not seeing where it explicitly gets run

and I don't think it's implicitly getting run from the emplace though I could be wrong

@sage crater

[sage crater]

it was at one point

it's probably not any more, since iirc I swapped where the parentB and parentA were-- or something like that-- but yeah, I don't see why it wouldn't work

but then again, it mustn't be working, because the pseudorandom isn't triggering properly

oh also, I fixed the mult issue

that was because I put a var2 instead of mult var in the calculate's return

[sage crater]

would this work?

[azure valley]

you're initializing parentA with parentA?

no that wouldn't work

[sage crater]

what?

[azure valley]

oh, that's not one line

[sage crater]

yes, sorry

[azure valley]

that should work yeah.

[sage crater]

ok cool, just checking

[azure valley]

but when does add_to_deck get called?

[sage crater]

so given there's no random changes to the numbers and also all the numbers are exactly the same, I'm inclined to believe it must be that the add_to_deck is not being properly called

[sage crater]

it should be when the joker is emplaced

... I think

[azure valley]

the lovely patched emplace method reads as follows:

function CardArea:emplace(card, location, stay_flipped)
if self == G.jokers then
    Cartomancer.handle_joker_added(card)
end
    self:handle_card_limit(card.ability.card_limit, card.ability.extra_slots_used)
    if location == 'front' or self.config.type == 'deck' then 
        table.insert(self.cards, 1, card)
    else
        self.cards[#self.cards+1] = card
    end
    if card.facing == 'back' and self.config.type ~= 'discard' and self.config.type ~= 'deck' and not stay_flipped then
        card:flip()
    end
    if self == G.hand and stay_flipped then 
        card.ability.wheel_flipped = true
    end

    if #self.cards > self.config.card_limit then
        if self == G.deck then
            self.config.card_limit = #self.cards
        end
    end
    
    card:set_card_area(self)
    self:set_ranks()
    self:align_cards()

    if self == G.jokers then
        local joker_tally = 0
        for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
          if G.jokers.cards[i].ability.set == 'Joker' then joker_tally = joker_tally + 1 end
        end
        if joker_tally > G.GAME.max_jokers then G.GAME.max_jokers = joker_tally end
        check_for_unlock({type = 'modify_jokers'}) 
    end
    if self == G.deck then check_for_unlock({type = 'modify_deck', deck = self}) end
end

[frosty rampart]

it is not called during emplacement

you have to call it manually

[azure valley]

add to deck is not called automatically from this function

[frosty rampart]

or just use SMODS.add_card, but i imagine you're not using that for a specific reason

[sage crater]

oh, wacky

[sage crater]

not intentionally. Might be beneficial, but idk what the benefits would be

[umbral zodiac]

if you dont know the benefits then you wouldn't benefit from not using it

at least i have to imagine

[azure valley]

function SMODS.add_card(t)
    local card = SMODS.create_card(t)
    if t.set == "Base" or t.set == "Enhanced" then
        G.playing_card = (G.playing_card and G.playing_card + 1) or 1
        card.playing_card = G.playing_card
        table.insert(G.playing_cards, card)
    end
    card:add_to_deck()
    local area = t.area or G.jokers
    area:emplace(card)
    return card
end

[frosty rampart]

add_card is literally just a wrapper that calls create_card, calls the card's add_to_deck, adds the card to G.playing_cards if it's a playing card, and then emplaces the card where it should go

[azure valley]

it's probably what you wanted to do

[frosty rampart]

the only reason you need to be using something else is in very special cases (e.g. putting a joker on the title screen, where not even create_card works properly and you need to manually create a new Card object)

[red flower]

i just use create_card for the title screen

[frosty rampart]

oh right maybe it does work properly and it just didn't work in my use case because i was trying to create a random joker from a pool

and either the random part or the pool part didn't work on the title screen

[lucid owl]

currently trying to modify played cards before they're calculated/scored but context.before doesn't seem to be right for that, any other applicable contexts?

[red flower]

context.press_play?

[umbral zodiac]

press play works for me it should work for you

[frosty rampart]

to be clear, do you want this modification to happen once before the hand scores, or once every time an individual card scores
and is this coming from the card being scored or an external source

[lucid owl]

oh i tried that before, there wasn't context.scoring_hand in that context but that should be easy to replace

[sage crater]

is it gonna be like SMODS.add_card(parentA) within the event?

[lucid owl]

essentially i have a joker that has a chance to modify cards before they're calculated, it can randomly change the rank, suit, enhancement, or seal

[sage crater]

like this?

[red flower]

it should be G.hand.highlighted

[red flower]

no, for copy_card you need to emplace and add to deck yourself manually

[lucid owl]

works perfectly, thanks

[red flower]

add_card creates a new card

[sage crater]

ah ok

[peak coral]

okay i feel like a complete dope for asking this but is there any particular reason this displays as nil? i don't know what i'm doing wrong in particular, but i know i'm missing something big here

    key = "jumptime",
    pos = { x = 1, y = 0 },
    rarity = 2,
    blueprint_compat = false,
    cost = 6,
    discovered = true,
    config = { extra = { h_size = 2, }, { every = 2, }, {jump_remaining = 2 } },
    loc_txt = {
        name = "Ourgughrgggh",
        text = {
            "{C:attention}#1#{} hand size every {C:attention}#2#{} rounds",
            "{C:inactive}(#3# hands remaining)",
        },```

[sage crater]

is this looking correct?

[frosty rampart]

1. you need a loc_vars function
2. why are your variables in 3 separate tables, it should just all be in one big table

[peak coral]

1. oh true
2. i initially had it in one table but changed it because i didnt know what i was doing wrong 😭

[frosty rampart]

yea put it back to one table, and then check the loc_vars section of this documentation https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Localization (you don't need to bother with any info_queue stuff, you just need to look at the return)

[peak coral]

OH WAIT i had one but i didnt include it in the snippet i sent . my mistake

after what i sent prior:

        return {
            vars = {
                card.ability.extra.h_size,
                card.ability.extra.every + 1,
                localize { type = 'variable', key = (card.ability.extra.jump_remaining == 0 and 'jump_active' or 'jump_inactive'), vars = { card.ability.extra.jump_remaining } }
            }
        }
    end,```

ill read the localisation documentation and come back to this

lowkey i just took it from loyalty card but i Know i fucked up LOL

[frosty rampart]

hm that seems fine

[peak coral]

but alas...

[rocky plaza]

this should be the solution

SMODS.Joker {
    key = "jumptime",
    pos = { x = 1, y = 0 },
    rarity = 2,
    blueprint_compat = false,
    cost = 6,
    discovered = true,
    config = { extra = { h_size = 2, every = 2, jump_remaining = 2 } }, -- copy this line
    loc_txt = {
        name = "Ourgughrgggh",
        text = {
            "{C:attention}#1#{} hand size every {C:attention}#2#{} rounds",
            "{C:inactive}(#3# hands remaining)",
        },

[rocky plaza]

ur config table as u showed would have been

{
    extra = {h_size = 2},
    [1] = {every = 2},
    [2] = {jump_remaining = 2}
}

[peak coral]

bless your soul

[rocky plaza]

which is wrong

[peak coral]

still new to this (obviously) so i appreciate it a ton

that makes a lot of sense

okay im convinced they just hate me LOL

WAIT I FIGURED IT OUT NVM

i put loc_txt after loc_vars and it works now

...oh, wait

[rocky plaza]

huh
i dont think the order is supposed to matter

ur loc vars is screwed up

[frosty rampart]

this one is due to the localize call you make inside the loc_vars function, i figure since you're using loc_txt you don't have a central localization file and therefore you never defined jump_active or jump_inactive

[peak coral]

OH true

entirely just my own laziness jdfgjfsdhg

[sage crater]

will this work?
I'm getting an error and I'm kinda thinking it's either this or another thing in my code

[frosty rampart]

what's the error say

that's generally helpful

[sage crater]

true

[sage crater]

bad argument #1 to 'lg' (number expected, got nil)

[peak coral]

so where exactly would i define these in a localisation file? by this i imagine you mean files such as en-us.lua, correct me if i'm wrong

[sage crater]

I think I figured it out

[peak coral]

i also think a big issue is how i worded this

not necessarily in how its programmed but i just realised i worded it COMPLETELY wrong LOL

[loud summit]

is it possible to have an effect on "scoring" a debuffed card

[azure valley]

@loud summit does the following work?

if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and context.other_card.debuff and not context.end_of_round then

[obsidian spear]

how do I check if any jokers had gone off in joker_main, in a joker that will add effects (based on used jokers amount) with post_joker

[elder rune]

so are you checking if a card is debuffed?

[plucky berry]

i've failed to do that without any patch and opted to store played debuffed cards and then give the effect on context.joker_main but if you figure it out lmk

[plucky berry]

sadly the game doesn't count debuffed cards as scoring so no

[vast tusk]

is there a way to detect a card being selected? as in just hovered over or clicked on without playing

cause this code is currently triggering nada...

[daring fern]

Hook Card:click

[vast tusk]

thx once more!

[vast tusk]

soooo, why is this still not doing anything? i have tried 3 variations of the activation hook and it's returns...

[daring fern]

on_activate doesn't exist.

[vast tusk]

bruh, then i have been gaslit by my friend... should it just be a calculate function then?

[slim sundial]

Is there a simple guide to getting started with balatro modding?

[slim sundial]

Oh thanks

[solid salmon]

How do i make custom variables

[elder rune]

what do you mean

[solid salmon]

Like if i made a present variable

That

If i get 5 makes a jonkler

[elder rune]

present variable?

[plucky berry]

what do i call instaed of assert(SMODS.enhance_card(v, 'm_napoli_garbage')) to add an enhancement

[slim ferry]

v:set_ability('m_napoli_garbage')

[slim ferry]

whats the code

[plucky berry]

    key = "carta",
    dollars = 5,
    mult = 2,
    atlas = "blinds",
    pos = { y = 0 },
    boss = { min = 1 },
    boss_colour = HEX("2d5b4f"),
    calculate = function (self, blind, context)
        if blind.disabled then
      return
    end

    if context.before then
        use_consumable_animation(nil, context.scoring_hand[1], function()
        for k, v in pairs(context.scoring_hand[1]) do
          v:set_ability('m_napoli_garbage')
        end
      end)
    end
  end  
}```

[slim ferry]

yeah thats because context.scoring_hand[1] is a single card

not a table of cards

[plucky berry]

yeah i want just the first card to transform

[slim ferry]

then

why a for loop

if its just one card

[plucky berry]

i'm lazy and i copied from another blind i made that converts all cards

thought it'd still work

it works without the for loop

[solid salmon]

Present points

[plucky berry]

ofc

[solid salmon]

If i get 5

It makes a joker

[slim ferry]

you can just set any value in G.GAME if you want it to be saved with the run

[slim ferry]

asterisk

?

[hardy viper]

not aaaany value

[slim ferry]

well yeah but

most values

[slim ferry]

*excludes functions and gameobjects

they get hit with the MANUAL_REPLACE special

[hardy viper]

it doesn't let you save functions? weird

[plucky berry]

when i enhance the card in context.before it doesn't act like that enhancement, do i need to recalc?

[slim ferry]

functions arent serializable

so they cant be saved

[hardy viper]

yes they are

string.dump

[slim ferry]

i guess but the game doesnt do that

functions on their own cant be saved

[hardy viper]

blehg

[slim ferry]

you need to do stuff

[hardy viper]

i don't think the upvalues are guaranteed to still be there

[faint yacht]

Not really, but depends on what the enhancement is intended to do - Midas Mask converts cards to Gold before scoring...

[slim ferry]

like you can also save cards if you do :save_card

[hardy viper]

so idk how it'd work

regardless you don't ever need to save a function in G.GAME so it's understandable that thunk didn't implement the behavior for it

[plucky berry]

how do i refresh the card for the game?

[slim ferry]

it should act like the enhancement immediately

midas mask in vanilla works like that

[daring fern]

No, you need to do it outside of an event.

[faint yacht]

But it also depends on the enhancement itself if it does anything specific.

[plucky berry]

like not having chips

also it's not inside an event

    key = "cazzimma",
    dollars = 5,
    mult = 2,
    atlas = "blinds",
    pos = { y = 1 },
    boss = { min = 2 },
    boss_colour = HEX("73231e"),
    calculate = function(self, blind, context)
    if blind.disabled then
      return
    end

    if context.before then
      use_consumable_animation(nil, context.full_hand, function()
        for k, v in pairs(context.full_hand) do
          v:set_ability('m_napoli_cazzimma')
          SMODS.recalc_debuff(v)
        end
      end)
    end
  end
}```

[daring fern]

What is use_consumable_animation?

[daring fern]

No, it is in an event.

[plucky berry]

so? how would i make it work

[daring fern]

Do it outside of an event.

[plucky berry]

i need the event to flip the card

[daring fern]

Yes, you keep that in an event but change the card outside of an event.

[plucky berry]

oh so i put end before the enh change not after

[daring fern]

No, you move it out of the function() you're inputting.

[plucky berry]

        end)
        for k, v in pairs(context.full_hand) do
          v:set_ability('m_napoli_cazzimma')
          SMODS.recalc_debuff(v)
        end```

this triggers the change before the animations

[daring fern]

Add nil, true to the inputs of set_ability

[plucky berry]

before the enhancement key?

[slim ferry]

after

[slim ferry]

why is this crashing? it crashes with could not find enhancement "Red", and printing enh_options reveals that its a list of seals instead of enhancements for some reason

[solid salmon]

Wait so i just use G.GAME.present_points for the custom variable?

[slim ferry]

yeah

thought usually if you add custom variables in G.GAME you should add your mod prefix or smth to them

[solid salmon]

Where do i put it

[slim ferry]

wdym where do you put it

you can set it anywhere that isnt during load

[solid salmon]

Like where do i declare/initialize it

[lean whale]

does anybody know how to code a boss blind in the game? I've just started my modding journey and am quite inexperienced

[red flower]

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

[final jewel]

Why do some of my things arent discover even if I play with them several time

[slim ferry]

discovery doesnt really exist for decks, enhancements and seals

the mod additions tab still shows discovered total for them for some reason though

[final jewel]

so how do I correct that so its showing the right way

[slim ferry]

i dont think you can

it should look normal in the regular collection though

[final jewel]

but like I want to show like this in my repo so people see how much stuff my mod have

[slim ferry]

hm

try opening the tabs ig

that might fix it

[red flower]

just add discovered = true

[maiden phoenix]

Rate the ui

Keyboard players in shambles

[final jewel]

oh I think I just have unlocked = true

it was just discoverd omg

[clear ocean]

working on my mod again and on stakes but not sure what i did wrong but it crashes

[tepid crow]

galdur error implies you don't have any localization

that's weird

your key says sliver, not silver

that's how they get ya

What's the easiest way to make Legendary Jokers appear in the normal joker pool?

[umbral spire]

that's neat

[umbral spire]

no responses ;-;

[lean whale]

haha are u italian

[plucky berry]

sto mettendo le carte napoletane in balatro

[lean whale]

hahahah

I need help implementing blinds, I've never done it

[plucky berry]

i'm doing it right now

[umbral spire]

You could just use a debug mod or something to start with it

like ZokersModMenu

press c to open the menu thingy

[slim ferry]

does zokersmodmenu even work

[umbral spire]

works for me

[slim ferry]

also i assume this is for an actual effect and not just testing

[umbral spire]

prol

[slim ferry]

since otherwise the debugplus console always works

[umbral spire]

that has joker spawning stuff?

[slim ferry]

yes?

[umbral spire]

oh

[plucky berry]

what do i do to remove enhancements from cards?

[umbral spire]

i frgot;-;

[slim ferry]

press 3 on a joker in the collection to spawn

2 to discover, 1 to unlock

[umbral spire]

o cool

[slim ferry]

Card:set_ability("c_base")

[slim ferry]

works for any card except boosters iirc, and also works with boss blinds and tags iirc

[real crown]

You mean download the debug mod and see how it's handled in that code? I'm a bit confused

[umbral spire]

bro anyone ?🥀

[daring fern]

No, you just have to be in the shop.

[slim ferry]

ive tried it in the shop and it said that there is no area for the booster

so i just eval SMODS.add_booster_to_shop

[daring fern]

No, you press 3 instead of CTRL+C

[slim ferry]

i did it with 3

oh it works now

huh

[clear ocean]

not sure if i word it right

[umbral spire]

idrk man

[umbral spire]

maybs 'negates' instead of 'costs'?

[slim ferry]

why negates

[wind steppe]

that's worse

[clear ocean]

negates?

[wind steppe]

this is understandable

that being said this stake sucks

[slim ferry]

what does negating $1 even mean

[wind steppe]

nobody skips blinds anyways

[umbral spire]

its the verb of 'negative' isn't it?

[clear ocean]

yeah i dont have much ideas for stakes

[unkempt bronze]

removes a dollar

[slim ferry]

i know but

[wind steppe]

it means it cancels something out by doing the opposite usually

[slim ferry]

it cancels out one of your dollars by giving you -$1

[clear ocean]

[umbral spire]

well ig

[umbral spire]

"costs" is prol fine then

[clear ocean]

maybe ill come back to stakes later but i think ruby is fine

[umbral spire]

Why does the foil enhancement apply to the card before it even says (on the joker) "Foiled!"?

                }
            end
        end
    end
}

[wind steppe]

needs to be in an event

[umbral spire]

what?

[wind steppe]

check vanillaremade wiki for events

im not the most qualified to explain it

[umbral spire]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade ?

[wind steppe]

yeah

[burnt tide]

What's wrong ? It crashes the game

it's in SMODS.Back, I want to show a tooltip of my custom tag

[daring fern]

You don't use info_queue on decks.

You use T: in the description.

Also it would've been G.P_TAGS

[burnt tide]

oh okay

thanks

[lean whale]

code to make blind debuff enhanced cards?

[daring fern]

if context.debuff_card and next(SMODS.get_enhancements(context.debuff_card)) then
    return {debuff = true}
end

[plucky berry]

is it possible to make a joker that sets all boss blinds to be a specific one?

[lean whale]

thanks a lot

[slim ferry]

hook get_new_boss to always return a specific key while you have the joker

[thorn basin]

I'm trying to make a joker that makes 3oak's appear more often but I'm unsure about how should I make this joker that whenever you draw cards, draw 3 cards of the selected randomRank...

[daring fern]

You need a context check.

[thorn basin]

a context check?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[thorn basin]

What type of context check I need and for what purpose?

[daring fern]

context.hand_drawn

You always need a context check.

[thorn basin]

but how can I draw 3 cards with selected randomRank?

(also I should check if there are exactly 3 or more cards in the full deck, if not then it selects the randomRank again)

[plucky berry]

Honestly i'm lost do i have to do this?

            return {"bl_napoli_allerta"}
        end```

[slim ferry]

no

one moment

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

also you should just return a string, not put it in a table

[lean whale]

how does the mod prefix work and how do I use it correctly

[slim ferry]

the mod prefix automatically gets added to all objects you create, resulting in <class prefix>_<mod prefix>_<key>

[daring fern]

local cards = {}
for k, v in pairs(G.deck.cards) do
    if v:get_id() == randomRank then
        table.insert(cards, v)
    end
end
for i=1, 3 do
    local card_to_draw, ii = pseudorandom_element(cards, 'seed')
    table.remove(cards, ii)
    draw_card(G.deck,G.hand, i*100/3,'up', true, card_to_draw)
end

[slim ferry]

so whenever you're referencing the object outside of the initial creation you use this full key, excluding atlases

[plucky berry]

i didn't really understand what to do tbh

[hidden notch]

Have you maybe figured it out yet?

-# Ope sorry for the Ping xwx

[daring fern]

No, it would also exclude consumable types and object types.

[thorn basin]

so the first "for" makes it so whenever it finds a card of said "randomRank", it puts it in a table and in the second "for" it makes it that it draws 3 random cards of said rank and removes them from the table, right?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[slim ferry]

local new_boss_ref = get_new_boss --save original function
function get_new_boss()
    if next(SMODS.find_card("j_modprefix_key")) then --check for the joker
        return "<boss key>"
    end
    return new_boss_ref() --use original function if you dont have the joker
end

tnx

[languid canopy]

Hey, what sort of code do i have to use to change the main menu logo?

[daring fern]

SMODS.Atlas{
    key = 'balatro',
    raw_key = true,
    path = 'newlogo.png',
    px = 333,
    py = 216
}

[languid canopy]

Thx

[astral sleet]

tried avoiding this but i've got a joker that's meant to cost $1, but due to applying an edition to itself it ends up costing $6, not sure how to fix this

i've tried manually setting its cost in a few areas but i think i'm missing something

[daring fern]

Hook Card:set_cost()

[thorn basin]

ok I just tested it and for some reason... the base queue starts to... increase? that at some point I cannot play hands or discards

[daring fern]

You're missing return true

[thorn basin]

oh 😅

[thorn basin]

ok now it works.... kinda
it bypasses the hand limit

[daring fern]

Yes.

[lean whale]

I'm getting an Error: attempt to index field 'atlas' (a nil value), but I have no clue how to interpret that
I'm trying to code a blind

[daring fern]

The atlas needs to be an ANIMATION_ATLAS

[lean whale]

oh

[thorn basin]

thx!

[lean whale]

now it says
attempt to perform arithmetic on field "frames" (a nil value)

[red flower]

you need to add the frames

[astral sleet]

can i ask why (other than making things easier for myself later down the line)? i just changed :set_cost() to .set_cost() and this seems to work (i will need to fix the sell value but that's relatively easy)

if i were to hook all i'd really write in the hook would be to .set_cost and some other shit so it's just globalising the solution that i only really needed here

[red flower]

what does this mean

[lean whale]

best result I've had all day, thanks everybody for your help! (it's my own boss, just need to actually customise it)

[astral sleet]

i'm not sure!

i just found .set_cost used somewhere else

and it works?

i can't explain why

[red flower]

sorry i dont have the entire context, what are you changing

[wicked leaf]

can I just use strings for add_card's rarity or does it have to be numbers

[red flower]

you can use strings

[wicked leaf]

that makes me happy

[astral sleet]

the cost of a card that forces itself to have an edition
originally it was forcing itself to be like $6 even though it listed itself as $1 in the shop, even allowing money to go into the negatives
it's fixed i think but i'm just really confused on if i'm doing something weird

[red flower]

no, i read that part
i mean where in the code are you changing : to .

[astral sleet]

oh

card:set_cost(1)

it's when it

adds to deck

[red flower]

thats not how the function works

[astral sleet]

        card:set_edition('e_negative', true, true)
        card.set_cost(1)
    end,```

[red flower]

that should crash

[astral sleet]

it doesn't!

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i'm really confused

[red flower]

i can assure you it will

[astral sleet]

it hasn't

[red flower]

so if it doesnt then its not running

[astral sleet]

it's working

hm

but it's turning negative

[wicked leaf]

Also is it "Three Of A Kind" or "Three of a Kind"

[red flower]

maybe you didnt save?

[red flower]

latter

[astral sleet]

no.. it's doing both

it's fixing the cost

and

originally it would always cost $6

[red flower]

well idk maybe you did some other change

[astral sleet]

what

hold on

yeah it did just crash what the fuck

how did i fix this

what

uuhhhh hold on

hold on

OH

[lean whale]

what do I need for jokers? the blind is displaying correctly now, but my joker (which worked up until now) crashes the game If I try to access the page to display it)

[astral sleet]

IM STUPID

[red flower]

card:set_cost() is just a function that calculates the cost, it only takes the card and no other value. card:set_cost(1) will ignore the 1. card.set_cost(1) will treat 1 as the card and crash

[daring fern]

Log?

[astral sleet]

NO I KNOW I FIGURED IT OUT sorry uhh

i had it saved

as card.cost=1

which works

but for some reason

i rewrote it

to be card.set_cost=1

and i was reading that

[red flower]

that will work but only until another card calls set_cost on it

[astral sleet]

i'm really not sure how i forgot what i did

oh really

hm

[red flower]

so not permanently

[lean whale]

as soon as i click on the jokers section of my mod's additions

I had the same issue with the blind

but now it's fixed

[red flower]

redeeming clearance sale will reset the cost for example iirc

[lean whale]

If I don't include the blind in the game the joker works

[stiff locust]

anyone know why i'm getting this crash when using SMODS.destroy_cards on some cards

[red flower]

full crash?

[stiff locust]

i would like to not show that if I can help it but I'm mostly concerned because I'm using the vanillaremade hanged man code for this

[astral sleet]

it seems fine? i'm mainly doing this just to patch the cost increase from it turning negative

[stiff locust]

it's identical except I changed the max destroyed cards (but no value makes it not crash)

[astral sleet]

hm

[red flower]

do you know what line 2538 is at least

[astral sleet]

oh also the vanilla remade is very useful for figuring things out just wanted to thank you while you're here

[red flower]

❤️

[stiff locust]

it's the return true at the end of the SMODS.destroy_cards function

function SMODS.destroy_cards(cards, bypass_eternal, immediate)

[red flower]

are you checking the lovely dump

[stiff locust]

the lovely dump only has balatro's files in it

this is an smods file that crashed

[stiff locust]

wait no

it has smods too???

didn't know that

[red flower]

anything that gets patched

[stiff locust]

okay now it's this

I still don't get it

[astral sleet]

aah. bad for sell_cost
i don't think i need help with this but i see what you're on about now

i'll go figure out how to do it properly

[stiff locust]

adding SMODS.destroy_cards to my enemy functions list

[red flower]

does your card have card[1] for some reason

[stiff locust]

cards is the list of cards put into SMODS.destroy_cards

[wicked leaf]

what's the variable for blind scaling?

[stiff locust]

which is 4 highlighted cards right now (crashes with any number of highlighted cards though)

[red flower]

i would need to see the log

[stiff locust]

so it's trying to access a card that doesn't exist which makes no sense

[stiff locust]

grumble grumble

[umbral spire]

using this tarot card crashes the game? something like card.lua:607 : attempt to index nil value

dw bout the names

[slim ferry]

fart

[red flower]

hmm what i think may be happening is that you're using a value in an event that gets cleared before for some reason

[umbral spire]

fart

[lean whale]

What’s a good way to create the 1x and 2x for icons (like a joker or a blind tag), I usually create the 1x but when I try to upscale to 2x it’s all blurred, and I have not found a way to do this reliably

[umbral spire]

what app do you use for art

[stiff locust]

i'm using the vanillaremade hanged man code :( i thought it would be easy

use = function(self, card, area, copier)
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            trigger = 'after',
            delay = 0.4,
            func = function()
                play_sound('tarot1')
                card:juice_up(0.3, 0.5)
                return true
            end
        }))
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            trigger = 'after',
            delay = 0.2,
            func = function()
                SMODS.destroy_cards(G.hand.highlighted)
                return true
            end
        }))
        delay(0.3)
    end,

why would this not be working

[lean whale]

Krita

[red flower]

i mean.. i might have messed up

[stiff locust]

gifs are blocked

just know i wanted to send one

[red flower]

hmm no works fine for me

[umbral spire]

iirc -- try to go to Image > Select Image to New Size . . . and in the scaling dialog thing set "Filter" to "Nearest Neighbour" and 200% new size.

[stiff locust]

well fuck me I guess

i'll just destroy the cards manually

[lean whale]

I’ll try thx

[stiff locust]

there's so much shit wrong with my modpack bro

I can't save runs anymore and I thought everyone else also had this problem

[umbral spire]

relatable

[stiff locust]

now you're telling me SMODS.destroy_cards doesn't work

its going in the bucket with SMODS.change_base and SMODS.add_card

[red flower]

i think you have a virus

[stiff locust]

no

it's probably deluxe consumables

but that mod is so cool

it's just not updated for newer smods

half the things are broken

but I want it so bad

[umbral spire]

bro i just want to add a seal to a card from a tarot, how is it this hard 😭

[stiff locust]

your set_seal needs your mod prefix before the seal key

thats all i can see

[umbral spire]

o right

still got this error 🥀

[lean whale]

Thanks. Now the problem is that it displayes a quarter of it and not all of it. Maybe I made it too big, is there a way to know how big blid icons are in balatro?

[umbral spire]

ill check for you

[lean whale]

Thank u

[umbral spire]

32x32, 100% scale.

[lean whale]

Fuck I did 64 haha

Thanks

[umbral spire]

np lol

and i think everything else is 71x95

mostly

[dapper sun]

didn't even need to ping mods for them to get purged,, ,

[sturdy compass]

Cuz it was posted in modding-chat too lol

[dapper sun]

ah lol

that'd do it lol

[wild pine]

is there a way to use contexts in the use function for consumables?

like if i wanted a consumable that permanently increases probabilities when used

[slim ferry]

there isnt

[wintry solar]

I have no idea what this old conversation was about 😭

[wild pine]

oof

[slim ferry]

though you can increase a global variable

and then use that in a mod calculate

SMODS.current_mod.calculate

[wild pine]

what like G.GAME.probabilities.normal?

oh

but would that affect odds on vanilla cards

[slim ferry]

wdym

if you use mod calculate you can just make it affect whatever you want

[wild pine]

oh fr

[slim ferry]

its just a calculate function but global and not attached to a specific game object

[shell timber]

do mod calculates trigger before or after jokers

[slim ferry]

idk

[sturdy compass]

mod calculate was such a sneaky good addition and I feel like nobody talks about it lmao

[slim ferry]

when do we get mod calc_dollar_bonus

and mod calc_scaling

fr

[umbral spire]

why doesn't my seal work? , no crash or anything, it just does nothing on a card

after

[red flower]

❤️

[umbral spire]

anyone?

[slim ferry]

it has to be context.main_scoring

instead of context.individual

also card.ability.seal isnt a table

you need to use self.config.extra

[umbral spire]

like?

SMODS.Seal{
    key = 'Doodoo',
    atlas = 'DoodooSeal',
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    badge_colour = G.C.BROWN,

            "{X:mult,C:white}x#1#{} Mult, {X:chips,C:white}x#2#{} Chips,",
            "{C:chips}+#3# Chips{}, {C:mult}+#4# Mult{}."
        }
    },

    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        local e = self.config.extra
        return { vars = { e.x_mult, e.x_chips, e.flat_chips, e.flat_mult } }
    end,

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.main_scoring and context.cardarea == G.play then
            local e = self.config.extra

            return {
                x_mult = e.x_mult,
                x_chips = e.x_chips,
                mult = e.flat_mult,
                chips = e.flat_chips,
                card = card
            }
        end
    end
}

?

[slim ferry]

yes

[daring fern]

No, it is.

[slim ferry]

what

how long has that been a thing

i thought it was a string at some point

[red flower]

thats card.seal

[umbral spire]

yes lets go, it works; thanks.

[slim ferry]

oh

oops

i wonder why so many mods use self.config for seals then

[wild pine]

wow yeah thats goated ty

[slim ferry]

btw

you can do if not G.GAME.voidextraodds instead of == nil

[wild pine]

oh true

[slim ferry]

not sure if theres a difference i think using not is usually better

[wild pine]

ill take your word for it thx

first time making a mod so lmao dont know much about that stuff

my code is probably Not That Great

[slim ferry]

oh ive seen way worse things in this chat

dw

this doesnt look that bad at all from what ive seen

[daring fern]

The difference is not will be true if the value is nil or false

[charred widget]

Hi friends! I've been trying to implement a deck into my mod, but it's just been giving me this crash. anyone have any ideas as to how we can fix this?

[daring fern]

Code?

[unkempt bronze]

Is greater than or equal >= or =>?

[lean whale]

=

[unkempt bronze]

I had a suspicion, just wanted to check. Thank you, Romeo.

[daring fern]

The = is always last.

[lean whale]

I need help with localisation, I want to make a file to store names and descriptions of whatever I add, but I have no clue on how to actually "link" it to the files containing jokers n shi

[glass scaffold]

This hooked code only returns Polychrome when I redeem the Hallucination voucher and I have no idea why.

[slim ferry]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Localization, as long as the files have the correct names your stuff will use them automatically

[lean whale]

the prefix is the one specified in the json file right?

[daring fern]

deckIndexList doesn't exist.

[violet oasis]

Oh lol

Nobody saw it

[daring fern]

Why aren't you using poll_edition?

[charred widget]

nevermind

[glass scaffold]

This is hooked code from an already existing function

[lean whale]

I don't see anything wrong with what I did but it doesn't seem to be working

[slim ferry]

what does your localization file look like

[glass scaffold]

Could I, in theory, make this use poll_edition?

[daring fern]

card:set_edition(poll_edition('illusion', nil, true, true))

[daring fern]

It's bl_ for blinds.

[glass scaffold]

Just replace all this with that?

[lean whale]

ok fixed that, either way neither works

[final monolith]

are there resources for making music replacement mods?

[lean whale]

Oh shit I spelled it localisation not localization

ok now it works :>

[vale grove]

anyone have any clue why this wouldnt work?

it says something about atlas being a nil value when i hover over the page of the blind

which i find strange because i feel like it shouldnt do that?

[lean whale]

do u have other things referencing the same atlas

as in do u have other cases where u have called the atlas "Ode" and referenced it with another object

[red flower]

blinds should have animated atlas

[slim ferry]

it needs to have atlas_table = "ANIMATION_ATLAS", iirc

[slim ferry]

oh

atlas_table then

[vale grove]

animated?

[red flower]

see

[slim ferry]

also doesnt it need a frames field or is that on the blind

[red flower]

yes

this should probably be in the blind wiki but nobody reads it so

[daring fern]

Yes.

[unkempt bronze]

In {set = 'whatever'}, is set intended to be a table?

Because I have a precise set of cards I want a making card to pull from, and I don't want to cut up those cards to their own group.

[slim ferry]

set is meant to be the key of an objecttype as a string

[frosty rampart]

cards can be in multiple groups

[lean whale]

when I create a 32x32 file and insert the icon, it only shows one quarter of it, as In the image seems to be 4 times as big

[unkempt bronze]

SMODS.Consumable {
    key = "lanthanides",
    set = "xiferp_Element",
    atlas = "Golden_Brick_Road",
    cost = 3,
    pos = { x = 0, y = 5 },
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = true,    
    can_use = function(self, card)
        return (card.area == G.consumeables)
    end,
    use = function(self, card, area, copier)
            G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                trigger = 'after',
                func = function()
                        SMODS.add_card({ set = 'xiferp_Element' })
                    return true
                end
            }))
        end,    
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Lanthanides',
                text = {
                    'Creates a random Lanthanide card',
                },
            }

}```

Here's the code of it, and I want it to pull from a list of 15 cards. What do I place in ``SMODS.add_card()``?

[slim ferry]

you need to create an SMODS.ObjectType with that set of cards

and then put the key of that in there

[unkempt bronze]

Can those be inside of other types?

[slim ferry]

what do you mean "inside" other types

its just a list of centers

[unkempt bronze]

Hmm, will pseudorandom_element{list of keys for the cards} work?

[slim ferry]

that can also work

[unkempt bronze]

I'll go with that, it's easier on my brain. (I love this bit of coding, like a road trip.)

[stone dagger]

Hello, is there any way for an event to access context? I wanted to create a consumable that on use makes it so next shop has an uncommon joker. But since the consumable is destroyed on use. I can't use calculate()

[unkempt bronze]

Have it add an uncommon tag?

[daring fern]

Yes, set a flag then hook create_card

[unkempt bronze]

(best idea I had)

[stone dagger]

How would I do that?

[daring fern]

G.GAME.modprefix_next_shop_uncommon_joker = true and:

local oldcreatecard = create_card
function create_card(_type, area, legendary, _rarity, skip_materialize, soulable, forced_key, key_append)
    if G.GAME.modprefix_next_shop_uncommon_joker and key_append == 'sho' then
        _type, _rarity = 'Joker', 'Uncommon'
        G.GAME.modprefix_next_shop_uncommon_joker = nil
    end
    return oldcreatecard(_type, area, legendary, _rarity, skip_materialize, soulable, forced_key, key_append)
end

[unkempt bronze]

{ pseudorandom_element({'xiferp_lanthanum', 'xiferp_cerium', 'xiferp_praseodymium', 'xiferp_neodymium', 'xiferp_promethium', 'xiferp_samarium', 'xiferp_europium', 'xiferp_gadolinium', 'xiferp_terbium', 'xiferp_dysprosium', 'xiferp_holmium', 'xiferp_erbium', 'xiferp_thulium', 'xiferp_ytterbium', 'xiferp_lutetium' }, 'Lanthanide_pull' )}
Is this what I should go for?

[slim ferry]

yes

[unkempt bronze]

table with the lanthanides first, then the seed.

I'm getting better at this whole coding thing

On an unrelated note, one line in my code has breached 375 characters long.

[stone dagger]

But when would I set the flag to true? Wouldn't I need context to know when context.type == 'store_joker_create' and set it to true then?

[daring fern]

No, in use

[stone dagger]

Ok. Sorry Im kinda lost cause I haven't overriden functions yet.

So the key_append = 'sho' means it is for when the jokers are created for the shop?

When/Where in the code would I override this function? Can I place it just in my file outside any class so when the mod is loaded it overrides?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[stone dagger]

Nice, thank you

though this seems like the kind of solution I wouldn't be able to come up on my own xD

[vale grove]

okay so currently it displays the flash but it also moves

this is what it looks like rn

It's 34 not 35

i want this to lower the present points whenever a wrapped card is discarded

[queen meadow]

how does one properly implement a malverk skin to a modded card?
when the skin is enabled via mod menu but not in use via the malverk ui, it defaults to using the default balatro sprite
I copied the way Celestial Funk implemented a modded skin (it skinning Asteroid of Multiplayer (?)) Is there any other way to implement modded skinning that doesn't have this happen?

[unkempt bronze]

These kinds of cards snap the game upon buying from the shop. I think it has something to do with the ``can_use`` part, saying you can use it even in the shop.

Should I change it to something like context.blind?

[stone dagger]

Just for curiosity (and future reference) how did you unearth this knowledge?

[daring fern]

if context.discard and context.other_card == card

[red flower]

return G.GAME.blind.in_blind

[unkempt bronze]

thank you.

Also, is there any way to put a card into the shop with debug plus?

[daring fern]

Yes, for vouchers and boosters.

[unkempt bronze]

but not standard consumable?

[daring fern]

Not without doing it manually.

[unkempt bronze]

Welp, better make good use of that $10 button

[daring fern]

eval local card = SMODS.add_card({key = 'c_modprefix_key', area = G.shop_jokers}); create_shop_card_ui(card)

[unkempt bronze]

Still doesn't help with the fact that the code is still breaking the game it seems

[daring fern]

Yes, you need a context check.

Like this?

[daring fern]

No, context.blind doesn't always exist.

[unkempt bronze]

then what does that has the same effect?

[daring fern]

No, you put it in use

[unkempt bronze]

put the stuff in calculate in use?

[daring fern]

Yes.

what should be in place of [???]

[nova sleet]

Is there a dedicated color palette restriction for Balatro?

or can you use any colors

[unkempt bronze]

not to my knowledge

there is a palette for jokers if you'd like to follow it, but you don't need to

[maiden phoenix]

Most common rule is avoid using pure black

[unkempt bronze]

see my recent code

[solid salmon]

Hey

[unkempt bronze]

Hey!

[nova sleet]

I assume color masking shenanigans

[unkempt bronze]

Not really

[maiden phoenix]

None of the art uses it, also it looks kinda bad if it has a negative edition on top

[daring fern]

No, remove the if

[gilded goblet]

#000000 looks really dark in-game and i assume it's something to do w saturation
its not to say you cant use it, u just need to figure out a way to not make it seem odd

[unkempt bronze]

it's fixed now

not just that, but the pack's good too

Well, actually...

this doesn't work, doesn't add seals.

No, remove the calculate function.

(The cards just like it are perfectly fine)

    py = 95
}``` 
is there a way to make all the wrapped cards share the same present points?

like this works

BUT the points stuck to individual cards

[daring fern]

Yes, put it in a global variable.

[solid salmon]

how do i make it global?

[unkempt bronze]

Nevermind, somehow seemed to fix it

[unkempt bronze]

G.GAME.(variable)

[solid salmon]

so G.GAME.present_points

[unkempt bronze]

yeag

[daring fern]

No, G.GAME.modprefix_present_points

[solid salmon]

do i declare that in the enhancement?

[unkempt bronze]

I have similar variables thanks to that

[unkempt bronze]

yes

[solid salmon]

like this?

[unkempt bronze]

what's you mod prefix?

[solid salmon]

othe

[daring fern]

No, you replace modprefix with your mod prefix.

[unkempt bronze]

then swap modprefix with othe

[solid salmon]

so like this

[unkempt bronze]

yep!

[solid salmon]

neat

now i can make a variable called splunksplosioncore and no one can stop me now

[final jewel]

I crash when I start the game

[solid salmon]

i fixed the issue

but the only small error left is

before discarding any of them it shows nil cards

instead of 5

fixed it

i just put or 5

[daring fern]

Do you have the image in both 1x and 2x?

[final jewel]

yeah

[unkempt bronze]

    key = 'radi',
    shader = 'radi',

        local numerator, denominator = SMODS.get_probability_vars(card, 1, card.edition.prob, 'e_xiferp_radi')
        return { vars = { card.edition.x_mult, numerator, denominator } }
    end,
    get_weight = function(self)

        if context.post_joker or (context.main_scoring and context.cardarea == G.play) then
            if SMODS.pseudorandom_probability(card, 'e_xiferp_radi', 1, card.edition.prob) then
                SMODS.destroy_cards(card, nil, nil, true)
            end,
            return {
                x_mult = card.edition.x_mult
            }
        end
    end
}```
Where do I put the visual for this, and will this do as I think it will?

(i.e. destroy itself if the odds hit)

[daring fern]

Yes, but it will still give xmult after it is destroyed.

[unkempt bronze]

The card or the edition?

[daring fern]

The edition.

You need to put return nil after SMODS.destroy_cards

[unkempt bronze]

so where do I put the visual of the card?

[final jewel]

so the game launch now but when the blind want to appear I get

[daring fern]

What do you mean?

[unkempt bronze]

Like the backing for the cards, like with polychrome and the such.

[final jewel]

SMODS.Blind {
    key = "selfish",
    dollars = 5,
    mult = 2,

    boss = {min = 1},
    calculate = function(self, blind, context)
        if not blind.disabled then
            if context.discard and not context.blueprint and #context.full_hand == 5 then
                return {
                    function ()
                        ease_dollars(-5)
                        delay(0.2)
                    end
                }
            end
        end
    end,
    boss_colour = HEX("03fcb6"),
}`

[daring fern]

Put func = before function ()

[final jewel]

oh yeah oups

[final jewel]

func = function ()
ease_dollars(-5)
delay(0.2)
return true
end

it crash again

[unkempt bronze]

where do I set the shaders for new editions?

[final jewel]

nevermind I made it work somehow

[native bone]

I got this error when I played a card with the irken seal. It just says I cant index extra, but the line it points to as an error is an else condition, so that is confusing me.

[daring fern]

It's card.ability.seal.extra

[native bone]

I replaced it

[final jewel]

func = function ()
   for i = 1, #G.discard.cards do
       G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
             func = function()
                   G.discard.cards[i]:juice_up()
                   return true
              end
       }))
       ease_dollars(-1)
       delay(0.2)
       return true
    end
end

why does it work only after the first discard

[daring fern]

Because there are no cards in G.discard until the first discard has been used.

[final jewel]

but what is the global for the cards that you discard

[daring fern]

context.full_hand

[final jewel]

oh yeah

[stone dagger]

Why am I being able to use my consumable when in the shop?

can_use = function (self, card)
        if G.GAME.blind and G.hand and G.GAME.dollars >= G.GAME.bankrupt_at + card.ability.extra.amount then
            return true
        end
        return false
    end

[sharp arch]

wsg chat

[stone dagger]

The goal is to see if I'm inside a blind. I should only be able to use the consumable if Im inside a round

[sharp arch]

yall my localiztion file isn't workin and i KNOW i fucked up so can yall help me

[wicked leaf]

my deck is crashing when I hover over it

wait I think I see the issue

why isnt the text separate.

[copper perch]

try {X:red, C:white} is all I could think

[wicked leaf]

X: removes spaces apparently

[copper perch]

ahhh

[chrome widget]

Winter mods release in ETA whenever an artist gets me one more joker. So probably tomorrow

[maiden phoenix]

No way another Sandbox Deck

[copper perch]

Would anyone know how to make a playing card in a specific position (like left-most for instance) be destroyed? I know how to do random, but unsure how to do a specific one. My current code below, which is for random

local card_ = pseudorandom_element(G.hand.cards, 'seed')
            SMODS.destroy_cards(card_, nil, true)

[slim ferry]

G.hand.cards[i] is the card in position i from the left

[copper perch]

assuming 1 would be leftmost and up from there, or start at 0?

[slim ferry]

yes, starts at 1 as leftmost

[copper perch]

thank you :)

[clear ocean]

is there a way to ban the blue seal?

should i ban the arm and or flint for balancing or should they not be banned

[slim ferry]

i mean the arm does nothing

so might as well

[clear ocean]

well you can still level up with i was thinking a space joker and maybe oops

[slim ferry]

also you can ban blue seal but idk if itll work if you put it into banned_keys, you can ban it in apply instead though

[clear ocean]

doesnt look like it will work the normal way

does the spectral cards that create cards spawn with seals?

[sweet pelican]

First time making consumables, how would I get this to force draw 3 cards (beyond hand limit)? I saw a similar mod use this "assert" but I haven't used it. Any advice would be great appreciated!

(also just realised even if this did work it would draw nine cards but I can fix that lol)

[copper perch]

Confused whats going on here...was working just fine before, but now its not. It has to compare to the number of cards in hand, but saying it cant for some reason-

if context.end_of_round and not context.game_over and context.main_eval and SMODS.find_card("j_DRY_Wyfole") > 0 and #G.hand.cards > 1 then
            local nullcard1_ = G.hand.cards[2]
            if #G.hand.cards > 2 then
                local nullcard2_ = G.hand.cards[3]
                SMODS.destroy_cards(nullcard2_, nil, true)
            end
            SMODS.destroy_cards(nullcard1_, nil, true)

[sweet pelican]

fixed it, used "G.FUNCS.draw_from_deck_to_hand(amount)" instead

[wild pine]

this is gonna sound real stupid but is there a way to have a booster pack not return SMODS.create_card
im making an alternate set of tarots with the hidden property so they have a chance of showing up in tarot packs, but you can also open a pack of just those alternate ones
issue is since theyre all hidden the alt pack gives nothing but the default card, since the cards still count as hidden even for their own set

so when i run this i get a variety of 5 cards from the upper bit and then 5 default cards from the lower bit

but removing that return statement just causes a crash

^

[native bone]

Is there a code example of a Red Seal by any chance?

[frosty rampart]

the humble vanillaremade:

[wind steppe]

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

me when the vanilla is remade

[sweet pelican]

the vanilla remade in question:

[native bone]

I forgor that existed lol

[sweet pelican]

as a new modder myself this shit is like the bible dawg

[native bone]

All hail the mighty Vanilla Remade

Wait, can I post images?

[sweet pelican]

yeah

like screencaps

[copper perch]

So I figured out its because I'm looking for a Joker on the table with a number...which seems to be impossible?? Even though it worked for a while?

[sweet pelican]

This consumable is supposed to discard 3 cards, everything works pretty much as intended but it just doesnt discard the selected cards at all, am I using "G.FUNCS.discard_cards_from_highlighted(nil, true)" in the correct way?

NVM FIXED IT

I didnt need the check for selected

istg I should just type this into a personal text document I always post here then fix it 5 minutes later somehow

[native bone]

This current function to check if I have Zim doesnt work when I tested it.

It is Jokerforge generated code, so there is probably a smarter way to do it lol

[frosty rampart]

what is jokerforge on
you don't need a whole-ass function when smods already has a function for it
next(SMODS.find_card("j_modprefix_zim")) is true if you have at least one Zim joker
(replace "modprefix" with your mod's actual prefix ofc)

[native bone]

lol

So does the find card return true or false depending on if it actually found it?

[frosty rampart]

SMODS.find_card returns a table that contains every instance of the card you're looking for. if you don't have the card, it returns an empty table
putting it in next() means that it ends up returning the first card object in the table, or nil if the table is empty. nil counts as false, and pretty much anything else (including a card object) counts as true

[clear ocean]

should i add an oops for balancing?

[frosty rampart]

curious why you ban standard packs
anyway another option for balancing would be to give the player a rocket for some bonus econ, it's thematic too

[clear ocean]

idk how to make sure blue seals not appear in the challange
