Well it's an idea I thought maybe since the mod I'm currently doing with the unused content is made to be unlockable from vanilla.

That's kinda what I have thouht about though I know it really wasn't ideal but thought would be an interesting addition besides that unlock all exists in modern balatro

[wintry solar]

No because stakes can have branching paths so that terminology outside of the initial stake chain doesn’t make sense

[tired kestrel]

I see though I still want to like make a thing where basically it's more of a expansion.

[wintry solar]

Just let it tag as applied gold stake

It’s a tiny comprehension step to understand what that means

And if you’re using galdur (which you should) it is very obvious what is happening

[tired kestrel]

I'll try galdur

woah what the heck-!?

[mental isle]

foilgraphic? which mod is that?

[tired kestrel]

Yeah.. I have not considered about galdur since I wasn't aware of it's existence

[tired kestrel]

Balatro: Director's Cut / The Archives
That I'm amking

[mental isle]

that looks awesome

[tired kestrel]

....

Yeah. I probably need help with stakes like this:

[pale holly]

Is there way for a joker to change the stat of a different joker that are both from the same mod or do i need to do a take ownership kind of thing ?
tried to do something as dumb like

SMODS.Joker {
    key = "boostPower",
        loc_txt= {
        name = 'Indignation',
        text = {    "DreamBreaker'mult ",
        "increase by  {C:attention}#1#%{}  ",
    },},
    atlas = 'regaliadeck',
    pos = { x = 2, y = 2 },
    rarity = 1,
    cost = 5,
    pools = {["pseudoregamod"] = true},
    
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = false,
    blueprint_compat = false,
    eternal_compat = true,
    perishable_compat = true,
    
    --- the function
    config = { extra = {percent = 75}},
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = {card.ability.extra.percent }  }
    end,
    
       add_to_deck = function(self, card, from_debuff)
    
    if next(SMODS.find_card("j_cymbal_dbreaker")) then 
    j_cymbal_dbreaker.ability.extra.xmult = j_cymbal_dbreaker.ability.extra.xmult*1.75
    end
        end,
    remove_from_deck = function(self, card, from_debuff)
     
    if next(SMODS.find_card("j_cymbal_dbreaker")) then 
     j_cymbal_dbreaker.ability.extra.xmult =  j_cymbal_dbreaker.ability.extra.xmult*0.75
    end
    end,
}

but ovciouslydidn't work, so if anyone knows how i should do it, please let me know !

[slim ferry]

if its from the same mod then you already know what the value will be called

so you wont need take ownership

just for _, c in ipairs(SMODS.find_card("j_cymbal_dbreaker")) do c.ability.extra.xmult = c.ability.extra.xmult * 1.75 end

also you probably want to just divide by 1.75 in the remove_from_deck

[pale holly]

well the code for the concerned joker is :

SMODS.Joker {
    key = "dbreaker",
        loc_txt= {
        name = 'Dream Breaker',
        text = { "{X:mult,C:white}x15{} when there's",
        "{C:attention}3{} hands and",
        "{C:attention}3{} discard left or less"
    },},
    atlas = 'dbreaker',
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 15,
    pools = {["pseudoregamod"] = true},
    
            unlocked = true,
    discovered = false,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    eternal_compat = true,
    perishable_compat = true,
    
    config = {extra = { xmult = 15}},
    loc_vars = function(self,info_queue,center)
        return {vars = {center.ability.extra.xmult}}
    end,

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.joker_main and G.GAME.current_round.hands_left <= 3  and G.GAME.current_round.discards_left <= 3 then
            return {
        xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
        }
    end
end
```l

[pale holly]

oh i see, i can try that thanks

So basically since it's in the same mod, i only need to make my joker find the concerned one to modify it without taking ownership ?

[pale holly]

Thanks btw it does work now, is there just a way to change the loc_vars to display the new mult the joker would give or not ?

[slim ferry]

it will already do that

well

it would if you used #1# in the description

for the xmult

since you already have the loc_vars

[pale holly]

oh wait i see why, dreambreaker's loc vars has center instead of card

my bad

[slim ferry]

thats

not the issue here

the description just has plain "15" in it

instead of #1#

[pale holly]

OOPS

my bad

i forgot to change to the #1#

thanks for letting me know

[brittle matrix]

I have been having an issue with vscode and functions. When I hover over a function, no tooltip appears. I have set up the LSP with a luarc.json file. Is there anything that could be causing this and how I could fix this?

[dapper sun]

how would i make a uibox button with multiline text

[loud summit]

hi uhh i tried to make a generic lockup-prevention function

its not working

-- returns true if we're in a potential lockup
G.nflame_lockup_prevention = function(frame_tolarance, trigger_tolarance)
    frame_tolarance = frame_tolarance or 150
    trigger_tolarance = trigger_tolarance or 10
    G.NFLAME_IDRFIRE = G.NFLAME_IDRFIRE or G.FRAMES.DRAW
    G.NFLAME_IDRCOUNT = G.NFLAME_IDRCOUNT or 0

    if G.NFLAME_IDRFIRE + math.floor(frame_tolarance / 2) < G.FRAMES.DRAW then G.NFLAME_IDRCOUNT = 0 end
    G.NFLAME_IDRCOUNT = G.NFLAME_IDRCOUNT + 1


    if G.NFLAME_IDRFIRE + frame_tolarance > G.FRAMES.DRAW  -- this triggered less than x frames ago
        or G.NFLAME_IDRCOUNT > trigger_tolarance           -- this triggered more than x times
        then
            print("LOCKUP POTENTIALLY HAPPENINGG")
            return true
        end

[dapper sun]

..since the uibox_update function only takes a config table

[dapper sun]

where would i find the ui table for the shop?

nvmd i found it

[ashen drift]

G.UIDEF.shop?

fuck

[dapper sun]

[pale holly]

in_pool = function(self, args)

tried to make my joker only appear if a certain joker is owned but it crashes instantly and does this

got the same error

[candid acorn]

whats the prefix for using :setAbility for enhancments? im trying to set an enchancement for a card idk what im doing wrong i literally dont remember changing anything in some tarots code but now it doesnt enchance cards for some reason

_card:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS['m_tws_mystical'])

its literally that

key = 'tws_mystical',

the key of the enhancement

[daring fern]

13 is not a rarity.

[pale holly]

Crap didn't properly replaced it my bad

[pale holly]

what's the prefix of your mod ?

[candid acorn]

tws

[pale holly]

well in that case if the key of your enhancement is 'tws_mystical', the ability set will be something like 'm_tws_tws_mystical'

[candid acorn]

i remember trying that already wait maybe im dumb and didint save the file or smth

[pale holly]

you could also just remove the tws_ from your enhancement key, that way it should work too

[candid acorn]

burh

bruh

the prefix should be good

idk why its a nil value

[vale crow]

I want to display a +mult effect above the played hand, not on a card but the same position some boss blinds use to tell you their effect( Like the Psychic's "Not Allowed"). What should I put in message_card?

[daring fern]

G.play?

[candid acorn]

can anyone help?

[pale holly]

can you show the code

[faint yacht]

play_area_status_text(string)

[pale holly]

also i think somewhere whatever thing you set as 'center' wasn't defined and should be replaced by card, but first we ened to see your code

[daring fern]

No, that crash usually means that they used the wrong key.

[pale holly]

Yeah, most probably, i just know there's sometimes center being used and the card, the problem being if it wasn't defined then it'll simply render nil

should be an easy fix anyway

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.selling_card or context.joker_type_destroyed and not context.blueprint then
    if not next(SMODS.find_card("j_cymbal_dbreaker"))  then
     SMODS.destroy_cards(card, nil, nil, true)
    end
    end
    end,

last help for the night i promise, just trying to make so my joker removes itself if the other joker gets removed (destroyed or sold), tried to do a check to see if it can find the card but apparently that isn't working

[daring fern]

if (context.selling_card or context.joker_type_destroyed) and not context.blueprint

[granite jay]

function SMODS.current_mod.calculate(self, context)
    if context.reroll_shop or context.buying_card or context.open_booster then
        G.GAME.current_round.twistedDandyOdds = -1
    end
    if context.ending_shop then
        G.GAME.current_round.twistedDandyOdds = G.GAME.current_round.twistedDandyOdds + 1
    end

    if 
        context.end_of_round and context.game_over == false and context.main_eval and context.beat_boss and 
        G.GAME.current_round.twistedDandyOdds >= 2 and 
        (G.GAME.current_round.twistedDandyOdds >= 10 or SMODS.pseudorandom_probability(self, 'dw_twisted_dandy', G.GAME.current_round.twistedDandyOdds, G.GAME.current_round.twistedDandyChance))
    then
        G.FORCE_BOSS('bl_dandy_dandy')
    end
end

Anyone know how I can change the store text from "Improve your run" to something like "Don't ignore me" if G.GAME.current_round.twistedDandyOdds is greater than or equal to 2?

[daring fern]

Hook localize

[pale holly]

i think the problem comes from checking if j_cymbal_dbreaker is still there since rn my joker won't disaper when Dream Breaker is sold

[daring fern]

if context.card.config.center.key == 'j_cymbal_dbreaker'

[dapper sun]

idk why it gets stuck like that, when i'm using vanilla code as reference (which doesn't do this)

-- Reroll shop func callback, copied from vanilla callbacks
function G.FUNCS.elle_rebecca_can_reroll(e)
    if ((G.GAME.dollars-G.GAME.bankrupt_at) - becca_menu_card.ability.extra.cost.reroll < 0) and becca_menu_card.ability.extra.cost.reroll ~= 0 then 
        e.config.colour = G.C.UI.BACKGROUND_INACTIVE
        e.config.button = nil
        --e.children[1].children[1].config.shadow = false
        --e.children[2].children[1].config.shadow = false
        --e.children[2].children[2].config.shadow = false
    else
        e.config.colour = G.C.GREEN
        e.config.button = 'elle_rebecca_reroll'
        --e.children[1].children[1].config.shadow = true
        --e.children[2].children[1].config.shadow = true
        --e.children[2].children[2].config.shadow = true
    end
end

    ease_dollars(-becca_menu_card.ability.extra.cost.reroll)
    becca_menu_card.ability.extra.cost.reroll = becca_menu_card.ability.extra.cost.reroll + 5
    becca_reroll(becca_menu_card, true)
end```

[pale holly]

Once again, thanks to you, my joker properly works now

[vale crow]

Sorry for not responding, something came up.
G.play puts the mult message bellow the scoring cards, not above.

[granite jay]

Where do you find the arguments for it?

[daring fern]

functions/misc_functions.lua

[granite jay]

Ah thx

[granite jay]

How do you make it so a calculate function only triggers when buying booster packs

like only the boosters from shop

[white hull]

hey y'all, how could i disable and reenable the play/discard buttons? at least visually

[dapper sun]

bump

[vale crow]

can someone explain to me message_card? I'm having trouble understanding it.

[dapper sun]

which card the message appears on

[vale crow]

Then there's no way to change the location of score messages arbitrarily, it needs to be tied to a card?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[slim ferry]

it can be tied to CardAreas as well

but it will always appear below the given object

if you want a message to appear in any arbitrary position then attention_text function can do that i think

[vale crow]

attention_text? wait I'll search the docs

[daring fern]

No, it's not on the documentation.

[vale crow]

then how does it work?

[summer gorge]

I've been wracking my brain on what should be easy.
SMODS.has_enhancement(card, key) -> bool

I was thinking of some custom Jokers that do funny things based on card enhancements; specifically one that reacts when you play a gold card (since those normally trip when held in hand).

But I can't seem to find out what the value of key should be for a gold card.

[daring fern]

'm_gold'

[summer gorge]

Right 😮 Should it be in quotes?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[summer gorge]

Right, I'll try that, thanks. Is there a comprehensive list for these? I feel like an idiot, but I couldn't find that specific one anywhere.

The Joker was ideally going to react to steel cards and glass cards being played as well; maybe cards with a gold seal too.

Is it just m_steel, m_glass, etc?

[daring fern]

Yes, and gold seal would be if card:get_seal() == 'Gold'

[upbeat bronze]

this is a dev sided question as someone whos not a dev

would it be possible to have aces dynamically rank as both 1 or 11 depending on a case by case basis when scoring for rank

aka for example like a blackjack mode where 4+ace+6=21 (where ace is 1)
or ace + ace + 9 (where one of the aces is considered a 1 while the other is an 11)

[modern kindle]

Yes

I actually did this for my blackjack, I just made it so if an ace is detected and would breach 21 it is considered 1 and applies for multiple aces, 1 ace can also count as 1 while another counts as 11 in the same hand

[upbeat bronze]

Alright thank you for confirming it is possible

[summer gorge]

Thanks 😄 😄

[dapper sun]

[summer gorge]

Another potentially silly question, is there an easy way to track X amount of cards in the player's deck? For example, a joker that gets stronger the more gold cards are in the deck rather than when they're played/scored.

[daring fern]

local count = 0
for k, v in pairs(G.playing_cards) do
    if SMODS.has_enhancement(v, 'm_gold') then
        count = count + 1
    end
end

[summer gorge]

G.playing_cards, right. Thanks. 😮

I still have a lot of figuring out to do, but you've helped a ton. 😄

[mystic river]

do you want in the full deck or the not-yet-drawn deck?

[spiral mural]

how do i get this to behave correctly????

localization file: lua misc = { labels = { MDJ_corrupted = "Corrupted", k_MDJ_veryrare = "Very Rare", } }

[formal quest]

How do I get Rider working with my mod's project files?

This is in my luarc.json

[warm solar]

is there a way to put "#" in a jokers description without it counting as a variable?

[daring fern]

Yes, return '#' as a variable in loc_vars

[warm solar]

ohh thats smart

thank you

[spice scroll]

wheres the docs that say what the different variables do in create_playing_card?

[final jewel]

What are the parameters for this ?

[daring fern]

t

[daring fern]

Is there a reason you're using create_playing_card instead of SMODS.create_card or SMODS.add_card?

[final jewel]

but how do I get the type that wants to be create and the key too

[spice scroll]

its what certificate does lol

do i just use that instead and dont add anything else?

[frosty rampart]

reference vanillaremade, not the actual vanilla code
https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/src/jokers.lua

[daring fern]

You should be hooking create_card not SMODS.create_card

[spice scroll]

well damn i wish i knew this existed like a year ago lol

wait why is it generating in G.discard?

[frosty rampart]

for animation purposes

it spawns in G.discard and then the event makes it do the drawing animation when it moves to the player's hand

[spice scroll]

ahh

does poll_edition exist?

[dusk cargo]

Im trying to make a joker play background music on loop replacing the music, does anyone know the error?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[daring fern]

You need music in the key.

[spice scroll]

why isnt it on the wiki smh

[dusk cargo]

I did that and this happened

Wait nvm

[spice scroll]

what am i doing wrong here?

[daring fern]

It would be G.GAME.blind not context.blind

[spice scroll]

gotcha

okay it appears the cards im generating are showing up as face down next blind

nvm lemme try some stuff

[ivory citrus]

Hello

anyone nows how can i do a card cannot be moved?

is for a seal

[daring fern]

card.states.drag.can = false

[spice scroll]

okay hmmmmm. i thought this would work, but im trying to have the joker description update along with the 'level' its at, anyone know why its not working

[ivory citrus]

cool

and how can i do to the card retrigger adjacent cards?

[daring fern]

Use the mod calculate and:

if context.repetition then
    local retriggers, my_pos, full_hand = {}, 0, CardArea.is(context.cardarea, CardArea) and context.cardarea.cards or context.full_hand or G.play.cards
    for k, v in pairs(full_hand) do
        if v == context.other_card then
            my_pos = k
        end
        if v:get_seal() == 'modprefix_key' then
            if k > 1 then
                retriggers[k-1] = {repetitions = (retriggers[k-1] and retriggers[k-1][1] or 0) + 1, card = v}
            end
            if k < #full_hand then
                retriggers[k+1] = {repetitions = (retriggers[k+1] and retriggers[k+1][1] or 0) + 1, card = v}
            end
        end
    end
    if retriggers[my_pos] then
        return {repetitions = retriggers[my_pos].repetitions, message_card = retriggers[my_pos].card}
    end
end

[ivory citrus]

not work

do nothing

wait i didnt read right

[ivory citrus]

explodes after finish scoring

[spice scroll]

i fixed it by manually updating it inside the code each time it changes

[pale holly]

SMODS.Joker {
    key = "mus_theory", 
        loc_txt= {
        name = "Musical Theory", 
        text = {
            "Negative cards can now appears",
            "#1# more",
    },},
    atlas = 'locations',
    pos = { x = 2, y = 3 },
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 10,
    pools = {["pseudoregamod"] = true, ["cymbal_books"] = true},
    
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = false,
    blueprint_compat = false,
    eternal_compat = true,
    perishable_compat = true,
    
    config = { negative_rate = 300000, extra = {}},
        loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return {  vars = {self.config.negative_rate }  }
    end, 
    
    add_to_deck = function(self, card, from_debuff)
        SMODS.Edition:take_ownership("negative", {
            get_weight = function(self)
                return self.weight * (self.config.negative_rate or 1)
            end,
        }, true)
      end,

    remove_from_deck = function(self, card, from_debuff)
        SMODS.Edition:take_ownership("negative", {
            get_weight = function(self)
                return self.weight / (self.config.negative_rate or 1)
            end,
        }, true)
      end,
    
}```

the weight change for negative spawnrate won't change at all (using 300000 just to test), i did do the take ownership, but not sure what exactly is wrong

AH

i think i get it

the or 1 made that, i changed to 300000 and now it does work

...though now i do wonder why the self.config.negative_rate won't work

    add_to_deck = function(self, card, from_debuff)
            G.GAME.modifiers.cymbal_negative_rate = self.config.negative_rate
        SMODS.Edition:take_ownership("negative", {
            get_weight = function(self)
                return self.weight * (G.GAME.modifiers.cymbal_negative_rate or 1)
            end,
        }, true)
      end,

    remove_from_deck = function(self, card, from_debuff)
        G.GAME.modifiers.cymbal_negative_rate = self.config.negative_rate
        SMODS.Edition:take_ownership("negative", {
            get_weight = function(self)
                return self.weight / (G.GAME.modifiers.cymbal_negative_rate or 1)
            end,
        }, true)
      end,
    ```

OKay i managed to find how to fix, just creating `G.GAME.modifiers.cymbal_negative_rate` and it works now
Just would like to know if there's a different and better way to do it or that works  as it is ?

[daring fern]

Yes, move the take_ownership out of the joker.

[pale holly]

I see but if i do wouldn't that be a problem to then change it if the joker is added/sold ?
like, how should i do ? just taking the smod edition take ownership outside ? but what i do for add/remove to deck ?

[daring fern]

local oldenegativegetweight = G.P_CENTERS.e_negative.get_weight
SMODS.Edition:take_ownership('e_negative', {
    get_weight = function(self)
        local weight = oldenegativegetweight(self)
        for k, v in pairs(SMODS.find_card('j_modprefix_key')) do
            weight = weight * v.ability.negative_rate
        end
        return weight
    end
}, true)

[pale holly]

So i then use oldenegativegetweight as way to restore the old negative rate in remove_from deck for exemple while for add to deck i just my regular code ?

oh wait

[daring fern]

No, you don't need add_to_deck or remove_from_deck

[pale holly]

Ah i see, i think i get it, all i do need to do is just replaced the j_modprefix_key by my joker key and then it will do the work by itself right ?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[pale holly]

Alright thanks !

[umbral zodiac]

does anyone know where the relevant code is to make the blind select button not clickable when it is not the current blind

nvm found it i just overlooked it earlier

[loud citrus]

so my acrobat rework, currently gives Xmult every hand instead of the final hand or after final discard, but the juice_card_until WORKS EXACTLY HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO!
i don't understand why the independent part works but the dependent doesn't, but i'm hoping someone can spot what i missed

[pale holly]

if your Consumable is meant to enahnce you can simply just place mod_conv = 'm_tws_tws_mystical' in your config instead of the whole use function part

[candid acorn]

yes but theres also a joker whose meant to enchance all played cards into an enchancement

thats the main issue

[pale holly]

Isn't your issue the consumable right now ?

What do you mean with the joker exactly

[candid acorn]

its an issue with enchancing overall

[pale holly]

Like, the fact the joker can do the enhancement when you want only the consumable to do it ?

[candid acorn]

i get the same error every time

[pale holly]

For now, your consumable on itself can be simplified with mod_conv = 'm_tws_tws_mystical', instead of the whole use part, but keep it, just inactive with --[[ ]]
as for your enhancement, replaced card:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS.c_base) by card:set_ability(Default)

wait

actually

replace by card:set_ability(Default) instead

[candid acorn]

what does the 'Default' do?

[pale holly]

your enhancement remove itself right ? Default simply does that, the 'default' enhancement

[candid acorn]

aaaaaaaaaaaa

alr lets try that

[pale holly]

Hold on

wait

i think i got it wrong for default, you should try
card:set_ability('c_base', nil, true)

c_base is the key for default card

[candid acorn]

still when i try to enchance a card into the 'mystical' enchancement the game says that the pool is nil

[pale holly]

do you have the error message ?

[candid acorn]

yes

ill send

this is for the tarot i sent earlier

[pale holly]

so same error message ?

[pale holly]

wait, did you did the mod_conv i told you about

and disabled the use function ?

[candid acorn]

well it doesnt crash but still wont enchance

the cards just stay the same

[pale holly]

wait i think i know why

[candid acorn]

???

[pale holly]

you need to add effect = "Enhance"

i'm sharing my own tarot for exemple but i noticed yours didn't had an effect on

[candid acorn]

it seems that whenever anything tries to interact with the enhancement the game crashes

ill try to enchance into something from the base game to see if the mod is an issue

[pale holly]

you could try replacing your custom enhancement by m_stone for exemple

that way you'll see if it's the tarot or the enhancement iself

[candid acorn]

yea i did it

it works if i change the enhancement to steel for example

so the modded enhancement is the problem

but the key should be fine so idk why it isnt in the enhancement center

[pale holly]

try replacing your ```lua
local edition = poll_edition("modprefix_seed", nil, true, true)
card:set_edition(edition)

`card:set_edition(poll_edition("tws_mystical", nil, true, true))`

i also noticed you never modified your modprefix_seed

[candid acorn]

ok so i used debug ++ right

so if you press ctr + W it changes the enhancement

and

the custom one wasnt there

so it isn't in the pool/center for some reason

ok i realised it IM SOO DUMB

SORRY FOR WASTING YOUR TIME

OMFG

assert(SMODS.load_file("Jokers.lua"))()
assert(SMODS.load_file("Empowered.lua"))()
assert(SMODS.load_file("Tarot.lua"))()
assert(SMODS.load_file("Spectral.lua"))()```

\

i think you can see whats wrong in this part

IM SO DUMBNBBBB

i lost all hope for this mod

[pale holly]

wait so basically the mod enhancement you made simply didn't load ?

[candid acorn]

i would actually want so say this

but

[pale holly]

i feel like from the way you explained to me and from i get, you either didn't saved your enhancement n the good folder, ooor forget to save it as lua

[candid acorn]

what is lua arent the mods written in javascript??????

nah ill try to figure it out

by myself

at least the cards now start the enhancing animation before the game crashed

fixing one frame at a time

[pale holly]

i'm being honest, i don't have much more knowledge in modding, i still fight for my life sometimes to do some simple sounding jokers

just shared what i knew from my own modding experience sooo

maybe what i did shared will still make things easier

[candid acorn]

yea i also dont know that much

and sometimes the wiki

is

just

not helpful

well it is but sometimes its hard to get what you want

[pale holly]

have you checked vanillaremade ?

[candid acorn]

yes thats mainly where i get resources from

[pale holly]

oh okay

the smods wiki kinda sucks for lacking documentation and exemples on what to do and how you can do it, which vanillaremade really does better at the job

[candid acorn]

also it has a mod example for everything EXCEPT the enhancements

[pale holly]

best thing you can do right now ist just check arounds

[candid acorn]

the enhancements are such a pain

[pale holly]

you could try to use G.E manager, a bit tricky but once you get it ti should maybe help

[candid acorn]

like for edition its card:set_edition for seals its card:set_seal but for enhancement you have to use set_ability and get it from a pool

[candid acorn]

wait no thats SMODS example mods

ill se vanilla remade

[pale holly]

yeah

well not much i can do rn outside for asking help later or looking other mods that does an enhancement similar to yours

[candid acorn]

ok i got it to work

[lament agate]

is it possible to make clearance sale percents go negative

[golden field]

question: how do i make all cards count as a single rank

[umbral zodiac]

you would be best to hook Card.get_id

and make it return a different value if you own whatever card makes things count as another rank

[golden field]

to what now

[umbral zodiac]

a hook is when you override a function with itself plus additional functionality that you add

a simple example would be

local original_function = do_something
function do_something(arguments)
  print("this runs before the original")
  local return_value = original_function(arguments)
  print("this runs after")
  return return_value --important! some functions return values and you may want to preserve their original values or alter them in some way
end

so for example a simple hook that does nothing other than printing when you get the id of a card would look like this

local get_id_hook = Card.get_id
function Card:get_id() --note the colon, this is important, otherwise you would have to specify "self" as an argument
  print("getting id of a card")
  return get_id_hook(self) --self is implied by using : in the function def, instead of ".", it refers to the table calling the function, so the card itself
end

[golden field]

ah

hmm

would this work

local insanity = Card:get_id() == 14
function Card:get_id()
    return insanity(self, from_boss) or (self:get_id() and next(SMODS.find_card("j_tcg_insanity")))
end

[umbral zodiac]

the == 14 in the first line is making it a boolean which you then attempt to call as a function afterwards

[golden field]

or do i have to make it return the 14 instead

[umbral zodiac]

yes

also note to set insanity to Card.get_id, the difference between . and : is important
. is used to refer to the function itself and may be used to call it, but for objects like cards, : is always used for calling the function and can not refer to it as a variable

[lusty pasture]

Why the hell is my game stuck on this screen

[maiden phoenix]

Someone has the link to the invisible pixel remover script?

[dapper sun]

how would i go about syncing this custom store's contents with a joker?

[primal robin]

Manually, unfortunate

Is it requied to make shop in menu?

[dapper sun]

well yea, but

would i save() and load() the cards every time something changes?

[primal robin]

Yea, but you need to keep trank changes in a first place

Not easiest task

[dapper sun]

and how would i track when cards are bought?

i'm already able to track when i reroll since that's got a button callback

[primal robin]

Theres other problems

Probably rn when you open a shop game is paused

Which means selling a jonkler in your shop will not be replicated in slots

And even if do, effects will not

In other words a lot of caveats so consider how utilize real joker slots

[dense fulcrum]

How do I keep track of when a song ends so I can swap it with a different one?

[wintry solar]

I don't think you need to, you can just keep the areas around

[dapper sun]

wouldn't that mean that the shop is shared between multiple copies of the joker?

actually i think i like that more than what i was doing before

[solid salmon]

is there a way to do like

if the chosen card for a spectral is a specific type

then it turns into something else

[dense fulcrum]

?

[pale holly]

local dessert = {j_ice_cream, j_cavendish, j_gros_michel}
local appetitizer = {j_turtle_bean,j_egg}
local meal = {j_popcorn, j_ramen}
local drink = {j_diet, j_diet_cola}

if i want to have 4 result for each local, do i need to 4 pseudorandom_element for each or is it possible to make it in one like like this ?

pseudorandom_element(appetitizer, meal, drink, dessert, "cymbal_restaurant_book")

I want to make my joker create 4 different joker based of each local but with a random result

[normal crest]

you have to make 4 pseudorandom_element calls

[hallow slate]

Is there a way to make an explosion effect when a card is dissolved

[shell timber]

why do you have j_diet and j_diet_cola

also those should probably be strings

[dapper sun]

do you mean an actual procedural explosion effect or just smtn like

as for how, i'd suggest maybe hooking the Card.dissolve function

[pale holly]

oops, wanted to use j_selzer

[pale holly]

ah alright thanks

[dapper sun]

if i'm gonna be separating things from the joker, then where would i store values like reroll cost, and how would i make the shop reroll between antes (which i would've just put in the joker's calculate)

i've never added stuff like this before so i'd like to know where to start lol

[wintry solar]

you can still store them in the joker

[dapper sun]

what if i have 2 of the same joker

if the cards in the shop are handled separately from the joker then i'd rather everything else be too

also that still isn't an answer for where i'd actually store them

[dense fulcrum]

How do I keep track of when a song ends so I can swap it with a different one?

[hallow slate]

Procedural, with particles

Though that explosion would be cooler tbh

[dapper sun]

well the would just be an animation, which could be done with an atlas and texture drawing

[dense fulcrum]

Screw it I'm just gonna do janky stuff with timers

[pale holly]

local dessert = {j_ice_cream, j_cavendish, j_gros_michel}

well my joker will crash upon selling it

And the full error message

[frosty dock]

your lists at the top have identifiers instead of strings

assuming you don't define those variables anywhere, that's like having a list of nothings

[pale holly]

oh wait you mean the locals before the joker ? i was thinking i could set them up early

[frosty dock]

j_ice_cream refers to a variable named j_ice_cream

not the string containing that

that's "j_ice_cream"

[pale holly]

AH yeah i think i get what you mean

should have put the " "

[frosty dock]

yep

otherwise you just have a bunch of variables there that don't contain anything, making these lists empty

and you can't pick a random element from an empty list

[pale holly]

Oh yeah, i should have went instead like local dessert = {"j_ice_cream", "j_cavendish", "j_gros_michel"}

[dapper sun]

anyone know why my hook isn't working? it says G.GAME.elle_rebecca_reroll is nil

-- Init game hook
local game_hook = Game.init
function Game:init()
    local g = game_hook(self)
    
    G.GAME.elle_rebecca_reroll = 5
    
    return g
end```

[pale holly]

what is this hook meant to do btw ?

[dapper sun]

dw i was told what i did wrong

it should be init_game_object

[dapper sun]

add a custom value to G.GAME

[frosty rampart]

ya exactly lol
and you can't assign it to anything in G.GAME because G.GAME doesn't exist yet in init_game_object, you add it to the table that's being returned which is what becomes G.GAME

[dapper sun]

at the start of the run

and how do i do that in the hook

wait would i uhhh

g.elle_rebecca_reroll

[frosty rampart]

no hang on lemme grab a good reference

[dapper sun]

okii

[frosty rampart]

oh wait actually yea, i missed that you use g as the return value

[dapper sun]

i did say g not G lol

[frosty rampart]

yea it'd literally just be

local igo_hook = Game.init_game_object
function Game:init_game_object()
  local g = igo_hook(self)

  g.elle_rebecca_reroll = 5

  return g
end

[dapper sun]

ty

it has picked the keys

[pale holly]

well it did picked the keys, but then i guess it couldn't just use them ?

[dapper sun]

OH

e_negative needs to be a string

[pale holly]

ah

okay thanks i'll try that

"e_negative" it is then

[dapper sun]

yea

[pale holly]

Same error somehow

[normal crest]

uhm, this should be unnecessary, but can you try adding set = "Joker" to each add_card call

[pale holly]

hmmm`

worth to try

maybe cuz of a local it doesn't use the string

well correctly i mean

because from what i read in the error, it can get one string first, but seems to crash from there

seems like it work, gotta see if it is random or not now

[normal crest]

I think another one of your mods is messing with the process

[pale holly]

yep, yep it is

[normal crest]

I'd try testing with only your mod installed

[normal crest]

cus adding this should not be needed

[pale holly]

well if you can i can just share the code

it's just one joker so

[normal crest]

I know for a fact this should've worked fine

[pale holly]

oh wait yeah you would need my full mod

i mean sure let me export it rq

[normal crest]

no you don't need to, I'm not going to test your mod in my pc

just saying there's something going on that's not supposed to happen with all the mods you have

[pale holly]

probably, i'm on the last version of SMODS so i don't think it's that, and yeah here's the code, feelfree to tell me what's wrong

maybe it is because it's local upon local, would be weird tho i do agree

[hard needle]

how do you add autocomplete to vscode for steamodded again?

[pale holly]

I don't really know actually, only started using vscode just two days ago

you could just edit the prefix of the mod (cymbal) to something else, using a different mod or something

or i can make an export build

[frosty rampart]

follow step 3 here (should jump directly to it)
https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#3-set-up-the-lua-lsp

[dapper sun]

what's the set for consumables?

(instead of a specific type)

[frosty dock]

sounds silly but iirc it's "Consumeables"

[dapper sun]

ty

-# i love how localthunk has consistently spelt it that way internally

[frosty rampart]

caino moment

[dapper sun]

-# i genuinely have to correct myself every time i write consumable bc i keep adding the extra e

[frosty rampart]

can't wait for 1.1 to fix all the internal spelling errors and watch a bunch of mods just implode

[frosty dock]

surely not

[sturdy compass]

selzer moment

[frosty dock]

thunk has no reason to do that

[hallow slate]

Selzer

[frosty rampart]

yea i doubt it'll actually happen lol
but it would be funny

[frosty dock]

if thunk wanted to correct them, that would have long happened already

[dapper sun]

and the set for booster packs?

wait

it's probably "Booster"

[sturdy compass]

I think that’s right

[frosty dock]

yeah that's right

[hard needle]

i haven't done balatro modding in a while is this what having dementia feesls like

[pale holly]

oh yeah the lua extentsion, kinda got this by myself lol
-# forgot the smods tutorial for that

[dapper sun]

tho rerolling makes the game stop taking mouse inputs outside of the pause menu

idk why

it didn't before

[pale holly]

custom store ui let's goo

[frosty dock]

:cat_owl:

[dapper sun]

also the shop contents don't seem to save

[frosty dock]

yeah they don't do that naturally

[dapper sun]

it seems to be getting stuck on the reroll function i made

[frosty dock]

sounds like it might have to do with a missing return?

[dapper sun]

wait i think i see my mistake

nope i changed a value in a copied over for loop without thinking about the consequences

nvmd

that wasn't it

[pale holly]

no worries if you can't figure out why, i'm just happy my joker just works lmao

srly, i feel like everytime i want to do something simple it'll screw me over

[dapper sun]

ok idk what it is bc i've not missed a return

also it's exiting the reroll function fine

and the print("done :3") is right before the return true in the event

[frosty rampart]

state or lock issue maybe?

[dapper sun]

hmm

lemme try uhhh

commenting out the save_run() event afterwards

nope that wasn't it

also the cards don't have the buy buttons under then despite the cardareas being type="shop"

debugplus event queue tells me that it's not getting stuck on an event or anything

uploading a vid rn

[pale holly]

info_queue[#info_queue+1] = G.P_CENTERS.negative_menu_desc

tried to make a custom info queue bubble but it won't appear, how should i fix it please ?

[candid acorn]

wdym the thing i thought would be the hardest to implement into the game just worked on the 2nd try 😭

[pale holly]

booster voucher

[candid acorn]

yes

i modified the SMODS.add_voucher_to_shop

now i have to make it appear along with the voucher each ante with a patch probably and make it stay between rouds

and make it so that if you buy the pack the voucher gets sent to the shadow realm

[dapper sun]

i figured out that the reason the cardareas were being emptied upon closing the shop was bc the cardareas get initialized every time you open the shop... but when i put the cardarea init stuff in the first open check it crashes upon reopening the shop instead

[pale holly]

so basically opening the shop would do a soft reset and make it useless to reroll

isn't there a way to store the info of the current store items and change every reroll action?

[dapper sun]

what

wdym

[dapper sun]

i'm talking about this, not the vanilla shop

[pale holly]

oh wait yeah i misswatched the video sorry

[candid acorn]

isnt there a way to save the shop items and load the same ones every time you reopen it

[dapper sun]

that's what i've been asking

earlier

but then i was told to not bother bc they'd stay in the cardareas

[candid acorn]

oh ok

[dapper sun]

so the problem seemed to be that the cardareas were getting reset every time i opened the shop but

when i fixed that it now crashes when i reopen the shop

[candid acorn]

im kinda new to modding so idk

[pale holly]

what's the error that happens ?

[toxic cave]

is there a way to modify which cards get drawn?

[pale holly]

good ol nil error

i don't really know either how to fix this, maybe you should make a different way to store the cards of your own joker's store

[dapper sun]

_ _

well that's helpful

[candid acorn]

does anyone know where the function that spawns the voucher at the beggining of each ante is located? i cant find it and i want to patch it

or like any function that handles the ante voucher basically

[dapper sun]

i swear to god

i left in one of the controller lock functions from vanilla's restock code

[dapper sun]

how do i make the cardareas persist when i close the custom shop ui

[toxic cave]

like a way to put it at th top of the draw pile before it gets drawn or sth, just any way to rig it, othrwise do i just discard then draw?

[pale holly]

also i found from crytpid you just need to use a custom key like this :
info_queue[#info_queue+1] = { key = "negative_menu_desc", set = "Other", specific_vars = { aaa, bbb } }

[hallow slate]

How do I layer the sprites udner the menu?

[brittle yacht]

why

and where

[frosty rampart]

how can i position a UIBox in the center of the screen?

[frosty dock]

show code and file structure

[normal crest]

in the config field do

config = {
  major = G.ROOM_ATTACH,
  type = 'cm'
}

[frosty rampart]

ooh thank you

[brittle yacht]

nah i found it nvm

[loud citrus]

how would i do an effect where a joker gives chips equal to the difference between rank and 15

[daring fern]

return {chips = 15-card:get_id()}

[loud citrus]

produces a crash
ask if full log is needed
(yes, my context is that general, and that part dose work lol)

[daring fern]

It's context.other_card not card

[dense fulcrum]

anyone here happen to know of a qr generator that can generate a qr that fits in a joker texture

[frosty rampart]

turns out this doesn't work because it centers it according to the actual screen, which is way out of bounds of the canvas i'm rendering to lmao

[loud citrus]

YES!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
this is gonna get silly >:0

[final jewel]

hmmm doesnt seems to work ? Can anyone help me

[daring fern]

You should be hooking Card:set_ability

[final jewel]

Why this I want to have 5% chance to replace mercury by my planet, its just a question, I want to understand what Im doing so its easier next time

[daring fern]

So that when a card is created, you can change the center from mercury to your planet.

[final jewel]

ooooh ok I understand

thx

[quick scarab]

trying to find a way to make a volume slider but can't find documentation of create_slider anywhere so any help

local config = SMODS.current_mod.config
SMODS.current_mod.config_tab = function()

[...]

    local voice_slider = create_slider({
        label = localize('fnaf_va_volumeslider'),
        ref_table = FNAF.config,
        ref_value = 'volumes', -- what var does this button match
        callback = function()
            FNAF:save_config()
        end
    })

    return {
        n = G.UIT.ROOT, 
        config = {
            r = 0.15 , 
            minw = 8 , 
            minh = 6 , 
            align = "cm", 
            padding = 0.1 , 
            colour = G.C.BLACK 
        }, 
        nodes = {
            voice_toggle, 
            voice_slider,
        }
    }

end

also config.lua

return {
    voices = true,
    volumes = 100,
}

[toxic cave]

btw you should use pseudorandom instead of math.random

[final jewel]

yeah I know its just for testing

[toxic cave]

alr mb

[final jewel]

no worries

but yeah Its not working

[faint yacht]

Card:set_ability

[final jewel]

oh yeah mb

Its not working to but Im getting this crash

[normal crest]

What is the issue?

[quick scarab]

crash

[normal crest]

So what's the crash log

[normal crest]

when do you define FNAF.config

[quick scarab]

didn't defined yet, but I used FNAF.config for a toggle

[normal crest]

okay, remove the callback from the slider, and just replace FNAF.config with config on every ref_table of the ui elements

[quick scarab]

FNAF.config is just the prefix that I use to keep track of the config

but I gonna try anyway

[normal crest]

the value in ref_table can be the config of your mod directly, so since you have local config = SMODS.current_mod.config there you can just use that

and the callbacks are not needed cus it updates it automatically

[quick scarab]

ok sure but how do I use this to make a volume slider for voicelines, like I have fuction to play voicelines and I want to my mod to have the option to change the volume seperate

Voicelines = function(audio)
    volume = FNAF.config.volumes
    if FNAF.config.voices then
        play_sound(audio[math.random(#audio)], 0, volume )
    end
end

[normal crest]

FNAF = {}
FNAF.config = SMODS.current_mod.config

if you have something like this as the first thing in your main file, you can just access the values anywhere using FNAF.config.volumes for example

[quick scarab]

yeah I know, I kinda already did this

[normal crest]

you said you didn't define FNAF.config earlier tho

[quick scarab]

that's how I got the FNAF.config.voices working

[normal crest]

can you show how you defined FNAF.config then

[quick scarab]

I didn't "define" for the slider

[quick scarab]

FNAF = SMODS.current_mod
FNAF.save_config = function(self)
    SMODS.save_mod_config(self)
end

local config = SMODS.current_mod.config
SMODS.current_mod.config_tab = function()

    local voice_toggle = create_toggle({
        label = localize('fnaf_va'),
        ref_table = FNAF.config,
        ref_value = 'voices', -- what var does this button match
        callback = function()
            FNAF:save_config()
        end
    })

    local voice_slider = create_slider({
        label = localize('fnaf_va_volumeslider'),
        ref_table = FNAF.config,
        ref_value = 'volumes', -- what var does this button match
        callback = function()
            FNAF:save_config()
        end
    })

    return {
        n = G.UIT.ROOT, 
        config = {
            r = 0.15 , 
            minw = 8 , 
            minh = 6 , 
            align = "cm", 
            padding = 0.1 , 
            colour = G.C.BLACK  -- this will define the background of the menu
        }, 
        nodes = {
            voice_toggle, -- the option itself
            voice_slider,
        }
    }

end

[toxic cave]

how do you add a modded joker via add card?
i do this in a deck after making a smods.joker whose key is openingact and the mod.json prefix is Dapper

error btw

[daring fern]

j_modprefix_key

[toxic cave]

oh i thought modprefix replaced the j part not added onto it, mb

[normal crest]

and with this code you're still getting the crash?

[quick scarab]

yes

I think its because of my create_slider but I don't know how to config it

[normal crest]

The crash is cus for some reason FNAF.config.volumes doesn't exist

Can you go to AppData/Roaming/Balatro/config/yourmodid.jkr and see what it has

[toxic cave]

okay well i might be fucked because my unreasonably complicated joker isnt doing anything and isnt erroring 💔

lemme rq put ts up on github

[quick scarab]

Yeah, I found it and "fixed" it

I think I just brute force to the config rather than fixing it

like

[final jewel]

bump, I am getting a crash on line 71

[quick scarab]

does anyone know how to use the create_slider(arg)

[normal crest]

you are using it right

[quick scarab]

It doesn't look like it

and when I click it it crashed too

I think I didn't define a limit or something

[toxic cave]

yeah i might be fried
https://github.com/dervorce/Dapper-s-Opening-Act

[normal crest]

Try setting the max value of the slider to 100, (the default is 1) I suspect this is why it looks long

Also if you're getting a crash and are looking for help you should send it

[humble pawn]

Okay if I had to guess you'll need to change 'center' to 'card' and also change line 69 to be Card:set_ability like the function name

[toxic cave]

changed some stuff, now i get this error

im now trying to discard cards equal to whats needed for most played hand then draw that many cards but it aint goin well

[daring fern]

No, center is a center, not a card.

[toxic cave]

im not sure if i even know how to draw cards from deck to hand properly this is what i do for it

[short girder]

highkey don't know what's making this trigger twice

[short girder]

should probably post the whole thing

[toxic cave]

also the thingy doesnt update it always says high card regardless of the hand i actually played most,

[daring fern]

local oldcardsetability = Card.set_ability
function Card:set_ability(center, initial, delay_sprites)
    if not center then
        return nil
    end
    if type(center) == "string" then
        assert(G.P_CENTERS[center], ('Could not find center "%s"'):format(center))
        center = G.P_CENTERS[center]
    end
    if center.set == 'Planet' and center == G.P_CENTERS['c_mercury'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astmercury'] end
    return oldcardsetability(self, center, initial, delay_sprites)
end

[daring fern]

context.repetitions doesn't exist.

[short girder]

ohhokay :)

[final jewel]

You're litteraly the goat

[modern kindle]

He do be the goat

[short girder]

it still triggers twice

[daring fern]

Code?

[short girder]

over here @daring fern

[daring fern]

No, the full code.

[quick scarab]

Fixed it, but it doesn't seems to crash whenever I touch it

[normal crest]

callback is not meant to be a function, it's meant to be the name of a function located in G.FUNCS

apparently

i don't think you need a callback to save the config btw, I believe it automatically saves

[frosty rampart]

lol
lmao
hooking love.resize to address an issue that most people will probably never see (rebuilding UI when the game window changes dimensions so the UI stays the same size and position in terms of absolute pixels)

is there more i have to do to my pull request (https://github.com/skyline69/balatro-mod-index/pull/497)? ive seen like two other mods be posted and accepted to the index but mine hasnt been approved yet

which is weird bc its just a deckskins mod so im not sure why its taking so long

or like did i submit it right?

i thought after i opened the pull request thats all i have to do

[plucky berry]

guys how do i make a joker retrigger consumables that have a calculate effect (not a use effect)

these consumables basically act like jokers

[daring fern]

context.retrigger_joker_check

[plucky berry]

it works on consumables?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[hallow slate]

When drawing with LOVE, how can I make it draw under the pause menu

[daring fern]

Patch Game:draw

[quick scarab]

still haven't found a way to fix it, does anyone know?

I can't seem to be able to use my "volume slider"

evertime I touch it it crashes

remove the callbacks

[quick scarab]

Fixed

thx

[spiral mural]

is there like

a real-time mult

that gets adjusted as calcuations come in

G.GAME.current_round.current_hand.mult doesn't update after every calc

[normal crest]

I think either the global variable mult or SMODS.Scoring_Parameters.mult.current if that's what you're asking

[hallow slate]

How do I remove a card from deck before deleting it, to avoid that gap glitch?

[daring fern]

No, that means you tried to destroy a played card without using SMODS.destroy_cards or context.destroy_card

[hallow slate]

So SMOD.destroy_cards({ card })?

[daring fern]

No, SMODS.destroy_cards(card)

[frosty rampart]

both work

[daring fern]

No, SMOD.destroy_cards doesn't exist.

[hallow slate]

Good news, I fixed the bug. Now I just need to try and get them to not disappear at the same time I think

Added a delay function, it all works smoothly

Tyvm for the help!

[normal crest]

you're so funny

[quasi comet]

So I have a question; I'm transforming a joker through set_ability into a different joker; how would I go about keeping its config (for context, the joker starts as a weaker form of the other joker; so they have the same configs; I just want to transfer the values)

[daring fern]

You would save card.ability before you call Card:set_ability

[quasi comet]

in like a global variable (?)

temporarily anyways

[daring fern]

No, in a local variable using copy_table, then change it back after you call Card:set_ability.

[quasi comet]

i've never used copy_table so im not sure how to change it back

[daring fern]

local ability = copy_table(card.ability)
card:set_ability('j_modprefix_key')
card.ability = ability

[quasi comet]

ohh. thank you

works perfect for what i wanted to do

[golden field]

really late update: i tried this and the game crashed

local insanity = Card:get_id()
function Card:get_id()
    if next(SMODS.find_card("j_tcg_insanity")) then
        return 14
    end
end

update 2: nvm FIXED

it works now 💀

[plucky berry]

              if context.other_card == G.consumeables.cards[1] then
            return {
                repetitions = card.ability.extra.repetitions,
                message = "N'ata vota!",
                colour = HEX("12a0d7")
            }
        end
      end```
this is not working

basically copied the code of chad from cryptid but replaced the area with consumeables

[daring fern]

Do you have retriggers enabled?

[plucky berry]

uhm no how do you do that?

[daring fern]

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

oh thanks i just couldnt find it then lol

[normal crest]

Make sure you're looking at Mods/lovely/dump/game.lua for it. Also can you send your patch?

[toxic cave]

bump + explanation
so currently, i suffer from:
G.GAME.current_round.most_played_poker_hand not actually being the most played poker hand due to it not updating at all for some reason so its always high card at the time of getting it (which is the beginning since i made a testing deck that starts with it) so even after playing like 20 pairs it doesnt show pair in either localization text or in its effect
speaking off, currently it selects amount of cards equal to whats needed to play the most played hand, discards them, and then tries to draw a specific poker hand, that poker hand being the most played hand, but from what i see, while it does discard 1 card (because it thinks its high card) it fails to properly draw 1 random card from deck

holy yap fest i made

this is what i do for drawing btw, i copied it from dna joker from vr since its the only time i see something get drawn to hand

[solid salmon]

heres the code

[normal crest]

No no, the target should be 'game.lua' as you had before

What I meant is, when looking at the source code look in Mods/lovely/dump

If you weren't already

[candid acorn]

upsi

yeaaa

[dapper sun]

how do i make a patch replace the target pattern

[normal crest]

position = 'at'

[dapper sun]

ty

peak lovely patch,,

# Fix Card:load()
[[patches]]
[patches.pattern]
target = "card.lua"
pattern = '''self.VT.h = self.T.H'''
position = "at"
payload = '''self.VT.h = self.T.h'''
match_indent = true```

[candid acorn]

peak

[candid acorn]

yea so it does crash the game

but in like a way that the game stops so i dont see the crashlog

[normal crest]

Did you change the target?

Or do you mean the game crashes after the patch applies

[candid acorn]

yeyea i read the logs i have to slightly change the position

the patch is inside a for loop and it turns out it makes it go forever

for _, key in ipairs(G.GAME.current_round.voucher or {}) do and it adds a new card to the voucher slot

[dapper sun]

made a smods pr

[toxic cave]

hi, so am i missing anything here??

[toxic cave]

to add onto this image, this is High Card btw (simplest one) and the one that is being tested and breaking

i assume G.playing_cards is the deck and whats shown in the previous image is how to draw so why dont this work

[kindred zephyr]

art :3

[dapper sun]

how do i add the buy button stuff to my shop cardareas

[toxic cave]

is there something in particular im doing wrong? are the cards in G.playing_cards not the same type as the ones in G.hand? or am i just using the wrong functions? what am i supposed to do here to properly draw a random card from the deck into the hand

[vale crow]

How do you evaluate Two Pairs?

[cyan nymph]

I love this idea, what a comical coin

[slim ferry]

when should/shouldnt i use nested events for creating cards? i see vanillaremade doing an event inside of an event to create the card for cartomancer, but doesnt do this for sixth sense

[stoic void]

Look at vanilla remade

[gusty compass]

What am I doing wrong to get such outcome? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1433872564610007201/1450188511377363036/image.png?ex=6941a0cc&is=69404f4c&hm=52b0df9cb92dd80135cfa85930f80b9181419ff2659477b079d21f89745a341e&

[slim ferry]

did you forget to return true in an event

[gusty compass]

No, I checked

It seems to be within apply

[vale zinc]

How come the Russian and Korean translations of Balatro use a different font?

[dapper sun]

probably bc they use different symbols

[vale zinc]

How do they do it? I'm making a localization file that uses characters that don't show up in the normal font.

[dapper sun]

well i think you kinda answered your own question

they use different fonts

[vale zinc]

But how do I get mine to use that different font, that's the question!

[gusty compass]

Pretty sure you can use SMODS.language

[toxic cave]

bump

[gusty compass]

Not sure if SMODS.font specifically exists

G.hand is your current hand, G.playing_cards is all cards in a deck

Also idk about drawing yet

Maybe ask the others

[vale zinc]

I used an auto-searching Python file to look for any instances of SMODS.language in the smods folder; didn't find anything.

[gusty compass]

Also it's SMODS.Language so mb

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

[daring fern]

SMODS.Font

[vale zinc]

Thanks to the both of you, though I'm sure to not figure it all out by tonight.

[vale zinc]

How do I iterate over a table of more tables? Trying this produced a crash.

for _, area in {G.deck.cards, G.hand.cards} do
    --
end

[normal crest]

do for _, area in ipairs({G.deck.cards, G.hand.cards}) do

or do you want to concatenate the tables

[vale zinc]

Not necessarily.

[toxic cave]

guys does ANYONE know how to draw a card from G.deck.cards to G.hand

the loop thing just bricks with this:

[daring fern]

SMODS.draw_cards(1)

[wintry solar]

Alternatively, SMODS.draw_cards(1)

[hardy viper]

this is a thing? i heard someone complaining in vc the other day about SMODS.draw_card not existing

[slim ferry]

its pretty new

but i have heard about it before

[toxic cave]

uhh what does up and 90 here do

wrong reply mb

i meant to the one above

[wintry solar]

Draw cards isn’t that new

Looking at where it is in the file it seems to be as old as changing the play limit

[toxic cave]

cant use the smods one because i need to draw a specific card and im noticing only the draw_card() one has the parameter for card

[hardy viper]

git blame is calling

[toxic cave]

yeah uh thats a lot

do i gotta fill ALL of these?

[wintry solar]

The code you shared selects a random card though

[toxic cave]

thats just for high card

[distant junco]

what the flip wheres me text

[toxic cave]

well

[dusk cargo]

I've seen a whole bunch of mods include an extra button under the sell button but looking in the code, i do not understand it. Does anyone know a clear example I can look at?

[cinder elk]

ok so say i want a joker that scans every card on the field for a suit. (i.e, look in scored and unscored hand for Hearts); how would i do so
i attempted to do this myself, with this code

    key = 'careful_fool',
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Careful Fool',
        text = {
            '{C:mult}+#1#{} Mult for each {C:hearts}Heart{} on the field'
        }
    },
    atlas = 'Jokers',
    rarity = 1,
    cost = 6,
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = true,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    eternal_compat = true,
    perishable_compat = true,
    pos = { x = 2, y = 0 },

    config = {
        extra = {
            mult = 4
        }
    },

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            local diamond_count = 0
            for _, c in ipairs(G.play) do
                if c and c:is_suit('Diamonds') then
                    diamond_count = diamond_count + 1
                end
            end

            return {
                card = card,
                mult = card.ability.extra.mult * diamond_count,
                message = '+' .. (card.ability.extra.mult * diamond_count),
                colour = G.C.MULT
            }
        end
    end
}

but it didnt work

any ideas on how i can actually make it work?

[toxic cave]

so now what

[daring fern]

pseudorandom_element returns two values.

[toxic cave]

oh shit, which one is the actual selected element?

[wintry solar]

the first

[toxic cave]

the .key? so like this?

[wintry solar]

drop the .key and that line is fine

[faint yacht]

Or local c = (pseudorandom_element(candidates, 'openingact') or {}).key would work?

[toxic cave]

i see the first one would go to the variable but it doesnt work for my high card because it just drops it in a list immediately

[wintry solar]

it's because you wrap it in a table

so it keeps both return values

[toxic cave]

AND IT WORKS gg

[wintry solar]

you can just do card = pseudo...; cards = {card}

[toxic cave]

just had to do this

[wintry solar]

yeah that

[toxic cave]

now for the last issue, most played hand aint most played hand'ing

so regardless of what hands i play, it always says High card, and always acts like it, and im using G.GAME.current_round.most_played_poker_hand

[wintry solar]

that only updates at certain points, it's not fully dynamic

[toxic cave]

oof

gotta count it manually then

[hardy vessel]

Is it possible to put enhancements in a pool like you can Jokers and Consumables, or does that require some other workaround?

[slim ferry]

it is possible, as an SMODS.ObjectType can contain any kind of centers

though it wont work as a pool for poll_enhancement if thats what youre trying to do, just for create_card/add_card. poll_enhancement already has an options field that allows defining a specific pool of enhancements

[viscid talon]

hi guys i am currently trying to redo the code for "soul of hatchet" and i have no idea what im doing

"soul of hatchet" is a consumable that upgrades the base joker "hatchet" into a new joker known as "divine hatchet" and said new joker has the divine edition

SMODS.Consumable {
    key = 'soul_of_hatchet',
    set = 'divine',
    pos = { x = 1, y = 1 },
    config = { 
        extra = {
            destroy_count = 1   
        } 
    },
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Soul of Hatchet',
        text = {
            [1] = 'A mysterious card with',
            [2] = 'a {C:enhanced}unique effect{}',
            [3] = '{C:inactive}(Cannot be used on',
            [4] = '{C:inactive}stickered Jokers){}'
        }
    },
    cost = 3,
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = false,
    hidden = false,
    can_repeat_soul = false,
    atlas = 'CustomConsumables',

    use = function(self, card, area, copier)
        local editionless_jokers = SMODS.Edition:get_edition_cards(G.jokers, true)
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            trigger = 'after',
            delay = 0.4,
            func = function()
                play_sound('mega')
                SMODS.add_card = create_card("Joker", G.jokers, nil, nil, nil, nil, "j_hatch_divinehatchet")
                card:juice_up(0.3,0.5)

        local _first_dissolve = nil
        for _, joker in pairs(G.jokers.cards) do
            if joker == 'j_hatch_hatchet' and not SMODS.is_eternal(joker,card) then
                joker:start_dissolve(nil, _first_dissolve)
                _first_dissolve = true
            end
        end
        card:juice_up(0.3,0.5)
        return true
    end
}))
end,
    can_use = function(self, card)
        return true
    end
}```

this is the code as of current but i can tell theres all sorts wrong

i genuinely have no idea what i m doing

[rocky plaza]

um
maybe dont redefine SMODS.add_card for starters
every other mod that uses SMODS.add_card will blow up if you do

[viscid talon]

😰 i was following the vanillaremade documentation on hex

you're talking to someone who isnt educated in code in the slightest - i can barely make a simple joker

[rocky plaza]

what is the key of hatchet

oh

[viscid talon]

j_hatch_hatchet

[rocky plaza]

nvm

lmao its right there

anyways

[viscid talon]

oh i got the key for divine hatchet wrong

[rocky plaza]

that would be a good catch

[viscid talon]

its supposed to be j_hatch_divine_hatchet

the error i got specifically was an undefined center

which tends to normally mean ive added a variable that isnt defined

[rocky plaza]

first of all i would suggest making it so that this cannot be used if you do not own a valid target for this card

[viscid talon]

yes - in a previous version of this consumable, it was sorta working but it blew up a random joker held in hand rather than the hatchet itself

idk how valid targets work

again, complegtely new here

ok not completely new but i didnt start modding until october

[kindred zephyr]

I have four others I have yet to make art for

[viscid talon]

this was the old code

it mostly worked, the only real issue was the fact it would evolve a random joker held in hand rather than the joker i wanted

this error i got in v1.4.3

not what i want

[rocky plaza]

so

local has_target = false
for i, joker in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
    if not SMODS.is_eternal(joker, card) and joker.config.center.key == "j_hatch_hatchet" then
        has_target = true
        break
    end
end

will check for a valid target

[viscid talon]

oke

[rocky plaza]

you can modify the conditions as you need

so if there are further restrictions on the hatchet that can be transformed, add them i the if statement

[viscid talon]

ill give this a shot

[rocky plaza]

put this in the can_use function and return has_target

[viscid talon]

oke

i think im sticking to the old code since it mostly worked the way i want to, and ill add ur additions to it

here we go

[final jewel]

                    end

                    end
                }
            end
        end
end
}```

note: it's meant to appear in ante 4 at minimum, but i set it to 1 here for testing purposes

uh

i thought this would be easy but my pareidolia clone isnt working at all

the idea is that it converts face cards into 2s

but even as i use the default vanillaremade code without altering it, it still doesnt work

the default pareidolia code

function Card:is_face(from_boss)
    return card_is_face_ref(self, from_boss) or (self:get_id() and next(SMODS.find_card("j_vremade_pareidolia")))
end```

hm

if what eris says is correct, lemme remove the "vremade pareidolia" part thingy

ok that works

so ive got this

function Card:is_face(from_boss)
    return card_is_face_ref(self, from_boss) or (self:get_id())
end```

how do i make it so that every face card plays returns a 2

I've seen a whole bunch of mods include an extra button under the sell button but looking in the code, i do not understand it. Does anyone know a clear example I can look at?

[subtle hawk]

I think that happens when it tries to draw a same card more than once

[subtle hawk]

SMODS.draw_cards(hand_space) btw

Unless I miss something that's the function you need

hand_space is amount of cards to draw

So you don't need to do a for loop

How can i make a consumable permanently give hands and discards, everytime a blind is reset it doesn't keep the added resources

[toxic cave]

so i have a weird problem, for some reason, one of the cards this draws is some wierd ass nothing card? deck has 6 aces of hearts btw

doesnt happen with any other thing btw, its specifically with the flush five

[daring fern]

Modify G.GAME.round_resets.hands and G.GAME.round_resets.discards

[wheat jewel]

as in like set those variables equal to the config vars?

figured it out

[wheat jewel]

like this?

[final jewel]

How do I make this work if not G.SETTINGS.paused and center.set == 'Planet' and math.random(25) <= 2 then local astrals = { c_mercury = 'c_giga_astralMercury', c_jupiter = 'c_giga_astralJupiter', c_pluto = 'c_giga_astralPluto', c_eris = 'c_giga_astralEris', c_planet_x = 'c_giga_astralPlanetX', c_saturn = 'c_giga_astralSaturn', c_earth = 'c_giga_astralEarth', c_mars = 'c_giga_astralMars', c_ceres = 'c_giga_astralCeres', c_venus = 'c_giga_astralVenus', c_uranus = 'c_giga_astralUranus', c_neptune = 'c_giga_astralNeptune' } if astrals[center] then center = G.P_CENTERS[astrals[center]] end end

[daring fern]

Yes.

[wheat jewel]

it didn't change the amount when i use the consumable

[final jewel]

Cause it was like that before if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_mercury'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralMercury'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_jupiter'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralJupiter'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_pluto'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralPluto'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_eris'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralEris'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_planet_x'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralPlanetX'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_saturn'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralSaturn'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_earth'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralEarth'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_mars'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralMars'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_ceres'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralCeres'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_venus'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralVenus'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_uranus'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralUranus'] end if center == G.P_CENTERS['c_neptune'] then center = G.P_CENTERS['c_giga_astralNeptune'] end

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.drawing_cards and G.GAME.current_round.hands_left == 1 then
            SMODS.draw_cards(card.ability.extra.cards)
        end
    end,
}

[daring fern]

You're drawing cards in context.drawing_cards

[subtle hawk]

Oh right

[quick scarab]

so how do I fix this? do I just remove it, like, I want to draw more 3 card once

[daring fern]

Use context.hand_drawn instead.

[subtle hawk]

Yeah context.drawing_cards happens for every drawn card if I remember correctly

[quick scarab]

it worked to well, I need to implement a condition

[subtle hawk]

Why did it do that

[wheat jewel]

trying to index a selected joker but i assume since the game only allows one to be selected at once then it should be only the G.jokers.highlighted var, but doing that causes a crash

[normal crest]

it's cus you're taking the length of it, remove the # from the chosen_joker line

[wheat jewel]

i did that

and it causes the crash in the comment_events lua

[quick scarab]

it detects that the hand is being draw and that it's one the last hand, so its gonna keep drawing until the deck runs out

[subtle hawk]

A!

[wheat jewel]

that causes errors for some reason

[normal crest]

can you send the full crash log

[wheat jewel]

ok

[quick scarab]

also I'm trying to make something to prevent it from retriggering it but it doesn't work, let me try a bit more asking for help

[subtle hawk]

Shouldn't like a boolean work

[quick scarab]

I already tried but it didn't work

[daring fern]

if context.hand_drawn and G.GAME.current_round.hands_left == 1 and not card.ability.extra.triggered then
    card.ability.extra.triggered = true
    return {func = function() SMODS.draw_cards(card.ability.extra.cards) end}
end
if context.end_of_round and context.main_eval then
    card.ability.extra.triggered = false
end

[quick scarab]

thanks

[normal crest]

dunno

[quick scarab]

I was trying to make a check where the joker doesn't drawn more cards if the number of cards holding was higher that the limit, but this might be better

[wheat jewel]

The error seems to be coming from trying to make a copy of the highlighted joker?

[daring fern]

Yes, it would be G.jokers.highlighted[1]

[feral tree]

is there a list of all the possible g.states somewhere? i can't find it on the wiki

[wheat jewel]

Thanks!!

it works!

[daring fern]

lovely/dump/globals.lua and search for self.STATES = {

[feral tree]

how would i change the backround color?

[loud citrus]

would if P_STAKES == stake_gold then work?

[daring fern]

You mean you want to check if the current stake is gold stake?

[subtle hawk]

Current stake is G.GAME.stake

I think you'll need to use a number for that instead of a key

[feral tree]

is there a way for me to change the background swirl's color anytime?

[loud citrus]

something about the number isn't right, everything else is fine if i remove the stake part

[daring fern]

‎

[wheat jewel]

i'm getting an error where i increment the destroy count because it says i'm trying to perform artihmetic on a nil value

[loud citrus]

well this won't matter anymore because i changed my mind on how i want things to work :)

[daring fern]

Did you start a new run?

[wheat jewel]

let me try that rq

[wheat jewel]

it worked but the consumable isn't deleting cards of a random suit like it should

[daring fern]

Yes, it would be G.hand.cards[i]:is_suit(_suit.key)

[feral tree]

bump

[wheat jewel]

is this how you check a card's rank properly in a loop?

[candid acorn]

You should do
for i, _card in ipairs(G.hand.cards)

I think

That way you check every element in G.hand.cards

And _card is each element

So the first time _card will be the first element etc.

At least i think maybe i dont remember correctly

[daring fern]

if G.hand.cards[i]:get_id() % 2 == 1

[candid acorn]

Oh yea maybe its that i didint read the problem correctly nvm xd

[wheat jewel]

Thanks!

[toxic cave]

bump

[toxic cave]

nvm i figured it out

[toxic cave]

is there any way to change which card gets drawn? like rigging the deck and putting some cards on top of it? i would much rather do that than having to discard then draw cards

[covert estuary]

I wonder if it's possible for the game to check for a specific joker in your joker slots,

If I can explain it a bit better, this is the description of my card (I don't intend on balancing this, it's for fun anyway, I mean I have a joker which has a 1/10000 chance of giving a straight up game over)

[dapper sun]

yea that's kinda easy to add

[safe saddle]

-# uhhh how do I make my own mod

[dapper sun]

read smods documentation

[covert estuary]

got it

[covert estuary]

good way to start is Joker Forge I'd say. It's similar to Scratch.

[safe saddle]

Ooo ok

[dapper sun]

or learn lua

[wraith jolt]

If a Joker were to gain x1 mult for each different editions in playing card, like let say you score a negative polychrome stone card, it give x3 mult but those nothing for vanilla. Would would code read like

[dapper sun]

negative polychrome?

what

you can only have 1 edition and 1 enhancement on a card

[wraith jolt]

Some mod allow for 2 or 3

[dapper sun]

❌

that's not how that works

[wraith jolt]

Ok, can you explain

[dapper sun]

cards can literally only have 1 of each

[toxic cave]

bumping part 29

[wraith jolt]

What about card that glass polychrome or lucky polychrome

[dapper sun]

glass and lucky are enhancements not editions

polychrome is an edition

[dapper sun]

<cardarea>.cards is a table, just move the cards

[toxic cave]

does it draw from last to first or from first to last?

[dapper sun]

i don't remember

nothing wrong with experimenting a bit

[tall wharf]

not really

[wraith jolt]

That negative polychrome there

[wicked leaf]

ok well thats probably not the 2 being stacked

thats probably its own edition

[wraith jolt]

There polychrome wild and

[wicked leaf]

also balatro app store images are from back in the beta

you. should really play vanilla cuz its sounds like you havent played

[dapper sun]

once again, wild is an enhancement

please look at the collection

[wraith jolt]

Ya I haven't play vanilla in ages
