[cerulean aspen]

i still dont get it

[reef bobcat]

anyone know what i did wrong? the context individual seemed to have caused it to apply to each individual card, but idk how to make it trigger only once for the hand

[cerulean aspen]

wait do i put it here?

[winter flower]

you're doing it in context.individual
https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#how-do-i-get-if-the-player-has-a-certain-card

[cerulean aspen]

how many mistakes am i making?

[reef bobcat]

OK

NOW

it works as intended

[cerulean aspen]

[kindred niche]

This part crashes the game with the error "attempt to index local 'center' [a nil value]"
My assumption is I am doing the SMODS.add_card function incorrectly

[stuck ore]

I'm having some issues with pools, I'm trying to make a tarot that only spawns jokers from a pool of modded jokers but it isn't working and I'm not sure why SMODS.Consumable { set = "Tarot", key = "hamburger", loc_txt = { name = "Hamburger", text = { "Create a random {C:attention}Hamburger Joker{}", "{C:inactive}(Must have room){}", }, }, pos = { x = 0, y = 0 }, atlas = 'hamburger_1', use = function(self, card, area, copier) G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({ trigger = 'after', delay = 0.4, func = function() play_sound('timpani') SMODS.add_card{ set = "food_Hamburger", area = G.jokers } card:juice_up(0.3, 0.5) return true end })) delay(0.6) end, can_use = function(self, card) return G.jokers and #G.jokers.cards < G.jokers.config.card_limit end, }

    key = "food_Hamburger",
    default = "j_hamburger",
    cards = {
        j_hamburger = true,
    },
})```
Shouldn't this work?

[stuck ore]

I think the area isn't needed because set = Joker auto puts it in jokers but if not I think it may be that it should be 'G.jokers'?

[kindred niche]

Neither worked sadly

[stuck ore]

damn sorry

[kindred niche]

All good

[kindred niche]

I figured it out

The key it is asking for is the full key in the localization file and I was only using what I stored when creating the object

[stuck ore]

ah gotcha

[kindred niche]

Unironically you helped because your 2nd code snippet

[stuck ore]

oh, happy to help

[kindred niche]

Sadly I cannot help with you issue in return

[stuck ore]

no worries

[red flower]

should be j_[mod prefix]_hamburger

[stuck ore]

I feel, slightly moronic for such a simple solution but thank you a bunch

it worked perfectly, I just feel a bit dumb

[kindred niche]

How is the negative edition's effect calculated if not in the edition object

In vanilla remade it has no on_apply or calculate

My edition crashes when I enter the collection screen for editions so I am just wondering

[torpid flicker]

can you pause a animated atlas and set its frame?

[kindred niche]

I do not know much but if the atlas has the whole sprite sheet then you should be able to pick out specific ones. Not sure if I fully understand the question or am qualified to help at all though

[torpid flicker]

yeah it does

how do i do that though is the question

[kindred niche]

Oh

[daring fern]

It uses the config.

[kindred niche]

I am not qualified, I apologize

[kindred niche]

Is there a section in the SMODS wiki or vanilla remade that I could look at to understand

[kindred niche]

If you could count which frame the object is on then a solution (probably not the best one) could be to make a duplicate object that only uses the atlas at the location of that frame

And if the animation will only pause on a certain frame then you don't need to count the frame its on cause you know exactly where it will be

[torpid flicker]

im trying to make a photosensitvity mode for my mod

i just cant get two atlases to work

so i thought pausing might

[kindred niche]

So instead of being animated, its paused?

I was thinking you wanted it to pause based on some condition

Not exactly sure how to implement it, but the frames variable could be based on some global variable

Like maybe ```lua
photosens = true -- Based on the player's settings

SMODS.Atlas{
...
atlas_table = function()
if photosens then
return "ASSET_ATLAS"
else
return "ANIMATION_ATLAS"
end
end,
}

I am not very experienced with lua so that could be entirely improper

[torpid flicker]

ill figure something out

[kindred niche]

Indubitably

[urban wasp]

any reason this doesn't work when {V:1} is used?

loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
    return { vars = { colours = { HEX("2ecc71") } } }
end,

[wintry solar]

Changing the card limit in the way negative does it handled by the smods api automatically if you set certain properties in your objects config (you can do it on any game object). There’s some information about it here

[stuck ore]

I'm trying to make this joker to only retrigger other jokers in a specific pool but I can't get it to work, how do I detect the set of a joker?

    key = "hamburge",
    loc_txt = {
        name = "hamburge",
        text = {
            "Retriggers all {C:attention}Hamburger{} jokers",
        }
    },
    blueprint_compat = true,
    rarity = 3,
    cost = 8,
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    atlas = 'jokers_27',
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { } }
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.retrigger_joker_check and context.other_card.ability.set == "food_Hamburger" then
            return { repetitions = 1 }
        end
    end
}```

[kindred niche]

Thanks

[kindred niche]

context.other_card.ability.set is not checking the pool of the card

its checking its set

[stuck ore]

ah. what would be to check the pool?

[kindred niche]

local is_part_of_object_type = (card.config.center.pools or {}).modprefix_Food -- See "How do I create a `pool`/`set`?""

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#how-do-i-get-the-set-pool-or-key-of-a-specific-cardobject

Based on that I think

if context.retrigger_joker_check and context.other_card.config.center.pools.food_Hamburger then

Assuming food is the prefix of your mod

[stuck ore]

I'm not sure but it seems to crash claiming 'pools' [a nil value]

[shell condor]

trying to create a masochistic mod for myself where every blind is replaced with violet vessel. what would be the easiest way to go about this?

for clarity, i mean "every blind is violet vessel", not "every boss blind is violet vessel"

[daring fern]

if context.other_card.config.center.pools and context.other_card.config.center.pools.food_Hamburger

[kindred niche]

Yeah that makes sense

[stuck ore]

Thanks a bunch, was getting myself in loops looking at the VanillaRemade but now I know going forward

[daring fern]

local oldresetblinds = reset_blinds
function reset_blinds()
    local g = oldresetblinds()
    for k, v in pairs(G.GAME.round_resets.blind_choices) do
        G.GAME.round_resets.blind_choices[k] = 'bl_final_vessel'
    end
    return g
end

[kindred niche]

While youre at it make it so you can't skip for judgment and joker packs

Just to make it even harder if not impossible

I dont think without jokers you can even score high enough to win in the first few rounds so scratch my idea

Is there naming conventions for spectrals or is it just kinda misc compared to planets and tarots

[granite raptor]

is there a reason why the config doesn't change after a relaunch after changing config.lua? running eval print(SMODS.Mods.mod_id.config) doesn't show any change

[daring fern]

Because config.lua returns the default config values, and config values are saved in a file in Balatro/config

[granite raptor]

ah @_@ that makes enough sense

[shell condor]

ty

do i just make that my main.lua?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[shell condor]

alright

works as i expected, ty

[loud crescent]

Alright, thank you! Maybe im wrong, but i doubt that a native rust implementation exists for this particular algorithm they use, so either i write it myself (idk if im all to capable of that) or i just use lua for only the random number generation, which is definitly a lot easier, but requires a huge dependency. Unless you know of a smarter way of doing this i think ill go with the second option first and maybe implement it myself once everything else is done. And again, thank you and @red flower for the help!

(that was in reference to this)

[stoic void]

the joker on the right is meant to have a soul on

This is the spectrans.lua file

[shell condor]

gonna see if i can tweak it myself to make it so that you have to play every blind

[wintry solar]

Needs a soul_keys

[stoic void]

What do you mean?

[wintry solar]

To add a soul sprite you need to tell Malverk which cards should have one

[primal robin]

When I'm calling :take_owership on a card, does this mean I'm blocking it for using on a same card for other mods?

I'm using it to setup custom atlas & pos for cards and dont want break other mods

[daring fern]

No, it doesn't.

[primal robin]

Okay cool

[acoustic drum]

Is there a way to check the current scoring hand's final score (after every card is triggered and plasma deck has equalized it)?
I need to check if it's over a threshold of chips and I've already setup some code to run on context.after but I'm not sure where I could find the current hand's score at.

[wild patrol]

too much?

couldn't figure out how to deal with the jimbo infestation so I set default to copycat

copycat joker lets chat vote on what joker it turns into

[azure valley]

You can just reimplement it. The source code is there.

Oh sorry you mentioned that

Still waking up.

[primal robin]

@wintry solar latest Malverk, I guess something is wrong?

Example of AltTexture definition

[stoic void]

very late responce, so I am sorry
would It be like this?

oh

Ive looked at other mods and I know how

nvm

oh

It is fucked up

Im just gonna jumble up my spritesheet for this to work

It works now!

[cerulean aspen]

i got 2 questions, 1 is why this isnt showing its actual image or joker image, and 2 how would i make it so that niko who spawns a god can let niko who is a god spawn in shop?

heres niko who is a god

[rigid solar]

Is there some simple way to check when a card is added to the shop? Like via buying Overstock for example

[stoic void]

both of the atlasses have the same key

[cerulean aspen]

alr ill change that first, also the level up hand dosent work for some reason

[stoic void]

why is it hyperchips and hypermult

do hands have hyperchips and mult?

[cerulean aspen]

basically scalling ^4

[stoic void]

I dont know if that is how that works

[cerulean aspen]

when a card is scored increase the ^ by one

[stoic void]

it might be

[cerulean aspen]

so the next one its ^^

then the next is ^^^

and so on

[stoic void]

I know that bit

[cerulean aspen]

yes its made to be broken

and overpowered as hell

but im trying to make it really hard to get

[stoic void]

I mean to say why is it
not what is

[cerulean aspen]

oh bc its stupid overpowered

thats why hes a god

(ima change name to niko who is a god and transcends all of time and space)

[stoic void]

im not sure

about what is wrong

[cerulean aspen]

okay so

[stoic void]

-# im not the best at this

[cerulean aspen]

it dosent lvl up high card

ah makes sense

neither am i

i messed up like 20 times jsut trying to figure out how to do the thing where if you have another joker THEN this joker can spawn

so i may have messed up and now the game crashes on loading

[dapper sun]

how do i get what card you're hovering over?

[cerulean aspen]

how do i change the atlas without breaking the entire thing?

[stoic void]

lets change the atlas on this:
change:

SMODS.Atlas {
  key = "niko",
  path = "heisgod.png",
  px = 71,
  py = 95 
}

into:

SMODS.Atlas {
  key = "nikogod",
  path = "heisgod.png",
  px = 71,
  py = 95 
}

and then in the joker code

[cerulean aspen]

alr got that

[stoic void]

then change the atlas = "niko", into atlas = "nikogod",

[cerulean aspen]

okay ty

and then for the other one nikored?

[stoic void]

and is niko the person in this discord server?

[cerulean aspen]

oh no

its a seal

[stoic void]

ah ok

[cerulean aspen]

i luv niko the seal

[cerulean aspen]

https://medal.tv/games/balatro/clips/m7nMc3AIhXx8Ybsv5?invite=cr-MSxIWlQsMzk3MDgzMzY0&v=0

[stoic void]

k

[cerulean aspen]

the other one still dosent show the right icon :(

[cerulean aspen]

do i have to add a atlas to this?

[stoic void]

you should

[cerulean aspen]

would i add a loc_vars or smth else?

[stoic void]

you dont need to

[cerulean aspen]

would it be like this?

[stoic void]

that should work

[cerulean aspen]

oh wow

i actually hopefully did it right on my first try

nvm

it crashed

[gaunt folio]

trying to add a custom card to the title, much like how cryptid does? Something in this breaks, what can fix it

[red flower]

i would recommend waiting for the next smods version

it has this feature

it just looks like the key is wrong there however

[gaunt folio]

thats actually sick

[cerulean aspen]

anyone know the correct way to format this? atleast the atlas part

or what im doing wrong?

[red flower]

all looks fine to me

what's the issue

[cerulean aspen]

crashes on loading

[red flower]

what's the crash

[cerulean aspen]

this is the other joker if this is breaking it

[red flower]

ah it's missing a comma

before rarity

[cerulean aspen]

😭 i somehow always miss something

[cerulean aspen]

alr now that we have that how do i make it so that if you have niko who spawns a god lets niko who is a god and transcends all of time and space apear in shop

[red flower]

you need to abbreviate these names lmao

[cerulean aspen]

OKAY

[red flower]

i think they already posted the in_pool function you should use before?

[cerulean aspen]

sorry caps

so

[winter flower]

dyslexia final boss
i already said before, use an in_pool function in niko (WIAG)

[cerulean aspen]

hmmm yes

[cerulean aspen]

oh wait but then thats what happen i couldnt figure out were to place it

[cerulean aspen]

this the correct placement?

[red flower]

that looks like it's inside calculate it needs to be outside

[cerulean aspen]

thius better?

[red flower]

yeah

now you're missing a comma before in_pool

do you have the lua extension installed

[cerulean aspen]

what extension?

[red flower]

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=sumneko.lua

that one

you should install it and right click > format

[cerulean aspen]

now im installing it

[wintry crater]

how would i check if someone's scoring is 2x the blind requirement? i know its possible but i dont know how to go about it

[cerulean aspen]

format selection?

[red flower]

format document

[winter flower]

if G.GAME.chips >= G.GAME.blind.chips * 2 then

[cerulean aspen]

how did it just get so much shorter what the heck

[wintry crater]

thank you ^^

[red flower]

in one hand?

[wintry crater]

like after you win

[red flower]

ah then it's that

[wintry crater]

if the final score is 2x the required amount

[daring fern]

G.CONTROLLER.hovering.target

[wintry crater]

okay so i messed something up

[winter flower]

are you using an event to add the cards?

[wintry crater]

yes

[winter flower]

because if you are,
you forgot a return true in the func = function()

[wintry crater]

oh

[dapper sun]

ty

[winter flower]

holdo n

wait

[dapper sun]

is there a reason why you're doing 2 nested events?

[cerulean aspen]

to change sell value per round would i do like card.ablitiy.extra.sellvalue = card.ability.extra.sellvalue * card.ability.extra.change and then set a "sell value" thing in the table to card.ability.extra.sellvalue?

wait per hand not per round

[wintry crater]

i looked at the code for Cartomancer in vanilla remade and thats how it was done there

[daring fern]

No, you would add to card.ability.extra_value

[cerulean aspen]

hmm alr

[cerulean aspen]

if context.before and next(context.poker_hands['High Card']) then
card.ability.extra.hypermult = card.ability.extra.hypermult + card.ability.extra.change
card.ability.extra.hyperchips = card.ability.extra.hyperchips + card.ability.extra.change
return {
message = 'Upgraded!',
colour = G.C.RED,
would smth like this work? but instead of chips and mult extra value?

[dapper sun]

yes

[cerulean aspen]

wqould i have to add a calculate = function(self, card, context)

[dapper sun]

?

the code you sent is presumably already in the calculate, right?

[cerulean aspen]

well that codes for another one but yes it is alr in the calculate

[dapper sun]

well yes

most joker behaviour would go in the calculate function

[cerulean aspen]

would smth like this work? or would i have i have to define extra_value early up

[dapper sun]

you missed an end after the calculate function

[cerulean aspen]

no comma right?

[dapper sun]

no

[cerulean aspen]

wait so yes comma or no comma?

[dapper sun]

no comma

but you can if you want, since it doesn't rly matter at the end of a table

[cerulean aspen]

okzy

ohhh okay

[dapper sun]

you should probably try to learn some lua fundamentals

[cerulean aspen]

yeah

welp new problem

[cerulean aspen]

when i play a card with niko who can summon a god this shows up

[dapper sun]

you forgot to add a config table

[cerulean aspen]

wait whats that

oh

like this?

wait

i need to change the variables

[dapper sun]

it only needs to contain change

also

[cerulean aspen]

oh peak

[dapper sun]

it's just card.ability.extra_value

since it's an existing value in the joker

[cerulean aspen]

i changed it to this and it still crashes :(

[dapper sun]

^

[cerulean aspen]

oh

[cerulean aspen]

so it says upgraded sell value but it stays at 2

[dapper sun]

show code

[wintry crater]

how do i make a challenge have the base blind size be larger than normal?

[cerulean aspen]

this?

[dapper sun]

are you playing a high card

wait you said it gives the msg

unselect and reselect the card

idk

[cerulean aspen]

i did

and it still dosent add mult

[dapper sun]

mult??

you wanted mult???

[cerulean aspen]

oh no

😭

[dapper sun]

you said you wanted sell value

[cerulean aspen]

mistpye mb

[dapper sun]

ah

[cerulean aspen]

yeah sell value not mult

https://medal.tv/games/balatro/clips/m7oHvTt9vLWJwltdn?invite=cr-MSxyMUMsMzk3MDgzMzY0

[dapper sun]

well your code should make your sell value increase

hover over the card rq and type value get into the debugplus console

[dapper sun]

i don't see extra_value

[cerulean aspen]

wait do i put that also in the config?

[dapper sun]

no

that's why i'm confused

oh!

i just looked at egg's code

[cerulean aspen]

idek what i did

[cerulean aspen]

how

[dapper sun]

add card:set_cost() on the line after you set extra_value

[cerulean aspen]

like this?

[dapper sun]

no

empty brackets

[cerulean aspen]

huh

ohhh

[cerulean aspen]

yeah still is just sell value 2

and still dosent have extra_value

[dreamy thunder]

extra_value doesn't exist beforehand iirc ?

[dapper sun]

u sure?

[dreamy thunder]

i might be wrong

[dapper sun]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/453a39ee6694ff82bcf0378da37a6c77b702dbfa/src/jokers.lua#L1135

[dreamy thunder]

idk

cause im pretty sure i had an issue with extra_value being nonexistant

[wintry crater]

only did it 7 times now but its only supposed to trigger once?

[dapper sun]

in that case

[dreamy thunder]

card.ability.extra_value = card.ability.exra_value or 0

something something

[cerulean aspen]

uh

what have i done wrong

[dapper sun]

?

just replace ur config table with this config = { extra = { change = 1 }, extra_value = 0 }

and don't forget the comma after

[cerulean aspen]

alr

[dreamy thunder]

oh yeah i forgot this 😔

[cerulean aspen]

uh

the entire thing is yellow

[daring fern]

You need to check for context.main_eval

[dapper sun]

you forgot to remove the extra } }

which was from the old config table

[dreamy thunder]

i just tested the extra_value being nonexistant

i was wrong

it does exist

[cerulean aspen]

ohhh okay

[dreamy thunder]

wait are you multiplying it

[cerulean aspen]

yeah

and its still not working :(

[dreamy thunder]

that makes sense

you're setting it to 0

card.ability.extra_value is not the sell cost, rather its the value to add on the sell cost

so its always 0

if nothing has been done to change that

[wintry crater]

thank you!

[dreamy thunder]

so you're doing card.ability.extra_value = 0 * 1

[cerulean aspen]

hmmm

im trying to think

but im not able to think of a solution

[dreamy thunder]

what are you trying to do?

[cerulean aspen]

multiply sell value

[dreamy thunder]

like double it or something?

[cerulean aspen]

and give the sell value of this card at the end of the ante

[dreamy thunder]

i mean you can make the extra_value 1 before doing anything but like

[cerulean aspen]

its suppose to be broken

and overpowered

bc for some reason it is REALLY hard to find niko who is a god

[dreamy thunder]

no the sell value would only incrase by 1 and then never again

if you do that

you are till multiplying by 1 so idk

[lusty marten]

how can i draw a wiper in run info?

[cerulean aspen]

i have it so

when you play a highcard change increases

i hope

this is code for it @dreamy thunder

[dreamy thunder]

oh so the change increases then multiplies the sell cost by the increased change

[cerulean aspen]

how would i do that

[dreamy thunder]

  card.ability.extra.change = card.ability.extra.change + 1
  card.ability.extra_value = card.ability.extra_value * card.ability.extra.change

probably

and change the extra_value = 0 in config to 1

[cerulean aspen]

alr

YES IT WORKS

[dreamy thunder]

nice

[cerulean aspen]

thank you

[dreamy thunder]

np

[cerulean aspen]

how would i make it give 1/2 of its sell value (or extra value) when beating the boss blind?

[dreamy thunder]

if context.end_of_round and context.main_eval and context.beat_boss then
    return{
        dollars = card.sell_cost/2
    }
end

[cerulean aspen]

ah okay ty

[cerulean aspen]

im guessing i misplaceced it

[dreamy thunder]

you placed it outside of calculate

should be before the underlined end

[cerulean aspen]

idek how i mess up so bad so many times 😭

[dreamy thunder]

dw i sucked when i first started

probably worse than you

[wintry solar]

What’s going on here?

[cerulean aspen]

ah okay

[cerulean aspen]

ty tho :)

[dreamy thunder]

no worries

[cerulean aspen]

is there any way that i can "sacrifice" jokers to let one joker actually work?

[dreamy thunder]

wdym?

[cerulean aspen]

like

lets say for niko who is a god

you need to sacrifice 2 jokers to let him actually do anything

like before you sacrifice 2 jokers, hyperoperator dosent increase

and he dosent addmult or chip

but once u do sacrifice he does all that

i might be making this a little more complicated then i should

[dreamy thunder]

do you need to use the joker to sacrifice other jokers or can any destruction increase it

[cerulean aspen]

use niko who is god to sacrifice other joker, when sacrificing it give 0 sell value

[dreamy thunder]

you could add a button to it if you want it to destroy cards anytime

then increase a value like "change" you used for extra_value to keep track of how many were destroyed

[cerulean aspen]

hmmm okay

[dreamy thunder]

and add an idk if card.ability.extra.value >= 2 before the joker's effects

[cerulean aspen]

hmmm okay

ill make it so you can either sacrifice like 15 rare, or reroll of hell to get it

, and 2 legendary

[dreamy thunder]

here's the guide for joker buttons

-# and ofc it requires some UI knowledge

[cerulean aspen]

thisis very confusing

[short fulcrum]

how would I change the types of playing cards that can appear in the shop and standard packs? I've been trying to make a Joker that makes it so only Aces can appear, but I've been unable to so far

[wild patrol]

It's confusing because a lot of words

Promise you it's not as confusing as u think

[cerulean aspen]

very many words and numbers and letters and stuff i do not understand

[wild patrol]

That's coding baby

Even I don't understand half of it

It just works

[cerulean aspen]

i dont even know how the site i made works 😭😭

[cerulean aspen]

THERES CHILDREN????

dawg this is too confusing

[wild patrol]

if my dumbass can do it so can you

still trying figure out how to remove the damn sell button

[lusty marten]

hey, how can i make a wipe in run info

[daring fern]

local oldcardinit = Card.init
function Card:init(X, Y, W, H, card, center, params)
    local g = oldcardinit(self, X, Y, W, H, card, center, params)
    if next(SMODS.find_card('j_modprefix_key')) and card then
        SMODS.change_base(self, nil, 'Ace')
    end
    return g
end

[short fulcrum]

oh awesome, I'll try this out

[gilded narwhal]

how do i make a card debuff itself permanently

when i use just set_debuff it only lasts until the end of round

[short fulcrum]

seems to work well, thanks

[daring fern]

card.ability.perma_debuff

[gilded narwhal]

thats convenient

[dreamy thunder]

you need to remove the already existing buttons by

if self.children.use_button then
    self.children.use_button:remove()
    self.children.use_button = nil
end

iirc

before making any new ones

[wild patrol]

I tried didn't work

Plus the defuse button has basically been added to the keypad

so seems redundant to keep both

[dreamy thunder]

i see

[wild patrol]

plus we agreed on a joke the first bomb to spawn can be sold

then the rest are eternal

as a small troll

[quick scarab]

Update, I kinda went back to the code and tried doing step by step until I encountered a crash that seems to be related to the re_value of the slider in the config, I don't now what it's causing it

[spiral mural]

i thought that dynatext wasn't supposed to scale 🤔
(translation: dynatext if it was good)

ignore the fact it's like that

how do i upgrade a hand before its scored

chud

[tranquil cypress]

in context.before you can do
SMODS.smart_level_up_hand(card, "High Card", nil, amount)

amount being the amount you want to level it by

[daring fern]

‎

[wintry crater]

since G.GAME.last_tarot_planet only works for vanilla consumables how would i make something similar for my added consumables?

[red flower]

use SMODS.current_mod.calculate and context.using_consumeable

and save it to G.GAME.modprefix_something

[loud crescent]

how is the sort_id of card determined, or specifically in what way is G.P_CARDS sorted in pseudorandom_element(G.P_CARDS, pseudoseed('erratic'))?

[dapper sun]

how do i change the blind requirements?

[primal robin]

It's global counter which starts at 0 on game start and increases by 1 when new card instance is created.

[loud crescent]

oh, and in what order are the cards created at the start of the game? i just assumed that it would be something like the combination of all suits x all ranks, (like 2 of Spades, 3 of Spades, ..., Ace of Diamonds or something like that) but that doesnt seem to be the case as just that gives me a deck of all Aces of Diamonds instead of all 10s of Spades on the bugged eratic deck seeds

[quick scarab]

bump

[primal robin]

cards are created in order determined by content of G.P_CARDS. Since it's dictionary and not an array, order may wary depends on how lua feels today, but probably it does: from 2 to ace, hearts -> clubs -> diamonds -> spades

i.e. it creates all hearts, then all clubs, etc

[loud crescent]

oh right, i shouldve just looked it up before asking, sorry 😅

[primal robin]

After that, they're sorted

function used for sorting is kinda meh

But, in case of erratic deck, it works differently

[loud crescent]

do you mean this?

[primal robin]

Instead of processing cards in order, erratic polls random card, and repeats for every card

So basically order is random

I mean just check Game:start_run function and scroll down a bit

You'll find how they're sorted, and how erratic deck works

[loud crescent]

and how exactly is G.P_CARDS sorted inside of pseudorandom_element(...)? it doesnt have a v.sort_id, right? (sorry if im being an idiot 😭)

[primal robin]

pair of { k = k, v = v } is created, and sorted by a.k < b.k

After that, seeded math.random(#entries) is called which returns index we rolled

you did that in your code above

Or rather literally copy-pasted it

[loud crescent]

im rewriting it in a different language, that is just the games source

and the indexing is trivial, rn im just trying to figure out how to sort the list in an intelligent way because the way the game does it seems kind of... odd, but i still want it to return exactly the same thing as the games function would

[primal robin]

Wdym it's odd

it gets entries of table and sort it by key basically

[loud crescent]

yeah its more about the whole sort_id thing and such

anyways

you helped very much, thanks a lot!

[primal robin]

sort_id used only for cards specifically

I.e. if it's card in already existed deck or in hand, in joker slots

It's used to make sure hits like wheel is based on joker itself rather than joker's position

So it always hit same card regardless of position

You're not dealing with cards, only with regular tables of data

[loud crescent]

ohhh yeah that makes sense

[sleek valley]

currently trying to make my card spawn a single tarot card when most played hand is scored
but right now it spawns for every played hand and, if the hand isnt the most played, it spawns two

i followed the instructions in the vanilla remade wiki, but it's still messing up

[primal robin]

You're creating a tarot in loop; instead you should make it after the loop, after you calculate most played hand

Then do check is hand played is most played and if yes, create card

[sleek valley]

but i cant use hand.played outside the for loop, that just crashes instantly

unless you mean smth else?

[next timber]

how do i get a list of all jokers in a certain pool?

[daring fern]

G.P_CENTER_POOLS.poolkey

[next timber]

sick thx

and will that be returning the keys of jokers or the actual joker objects

[frosty rampart]

actual joker objects iirc

[next timber]

ok neat

[idle plaza]

You need context.scoring_name to check the name of the hand currently being played.

Move the event that creates the Tarots outside of your for loop, and instead, place it in an if check afterwards, that checks if context.scoring_name == most_played then, and thus only creates the tarot in that one case.

[sleek valley]

Yup, that did it! Thank youuuuu!!!

[idle plaza]

👍

[rapid stag]

do jokers not unlock & discover properly when you create them via set_ability?

because i've had two jokers now in my collection fail to properly unlock & discover when obtained this way

[wild patrol]

is there a smod feature for custom card skins?

or themes

[rapid stag]

use malverk

oh wait

do you mean playing cards or other cards

if you mean the actual cards themselves, https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.DeckSkin

[wild patrol]

yeah that's it thanks

might add some deck skins based on streamers

just for extra fluff

[quick scarab]

I need help, I'm trying to make a config where if it is disabled, the mult of a certain card is overrided with a custom value by the player, but it keeps crashing when I simply open the game. I got as fair in the coding having issues and attempt reworking it to try to see if it works at any way

right now I already have a toggle button and a funtion that uses it but it keeps saying its a nill value despite having it

if FNAF.config.freddyimport then
    Freddy_Mult = 63
end    

Config file

return {
    voices = true,
    volumes = 100,
    freddyimport = false,
}

UI file

    local freddy_toggle = create_toggle({
        label = localize('fnaf_save_freddy'),
        ref_table = FNAF.config,
        juice = true,
        ref_value = 'freddyimport', -- what var does this button match
        callback = function()
            FNAF:save_config()
        end
    })

    return {
        n = G.UIT.ROOT, config = { r = 0.15, minw = 15, minh = 7, align = "cm", padding = 0.01, colour = G.C.BLACK },
        nodes = {
            { n = G.UIT.R, config = { align = "tm" },
                nodes = {
                    voice_toggle, -- the option itself
                    voice_slider,
                }
            },

            { n = G.UIT.R, config = { align = "cm" }, nodes = { 
                { n = G.UIT.B, config = { w = 0.5 , h = 0.5 , align = "cm", }}}
            },

            { n = G.UIT.R, config = { align = "cm", padding = 0.1 }, nodes = {
                    {n=G.UIT.T, config={text = localize('fnaf_save'), colour = G.C.UI.TEXT_LIGHT, scale = 0.5}},
                }
            },

            { n = G.UIT.R, config = { align = "cm" },nodes = {
                    { n = G.UIT.C, config = { align = "cl" },
                        nodes = {
                            freddy_toggle,
                        }
                    },
                }
            }
        
        }
    }

[red flower]

where is FNAF defined

[quick scarab]

in the config?

[red flower]

you need to define the variable somewhere as FNAF = SMODS.current_mod

[quick scarab]

I have

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()

[red flower]

is that before or after you load the files

[quick scarab]

it's one the same file along the ui and stuff

let me switch the load order

[red flower]

make sure it exists before you load this top file

[umbral zodiac]

how would you properly make an editioned playing card remove itself at end of round
i tried context.end_of_round, didn't trigger
same with context.playing_card_end_of_round

wait oh i realize is it possibly because its in the discard pile

[quick scarab]

ok it loaded but it didn't seem to change anything

I gonna check if the code that I did works or if I messed something up

[umbral zodiac]

ya ok that was the issue lmao

[random basin]

how do I get the effect of the back button UI where it is disabled and then has a fill effect until it's enabled?

[oblique lotus]

Is there an easy way to add permanent chips to a Joker in a similar way that the Hiker does to a playing card?

I imagine that smods doesn't support that functionality but I thought I'd ask

[rapid stag]

bump

[grizzled tide]

is there a global function which i can run based on time? i have an ability i want to activate every second

[idle plaza]

If the ability belongs to a Joker, you can give it the function update(self, card, dt), where dt is the time since the last update call, in seconds.

[grizzled tide]

mm, it is for a joker, but i do need all copies of the joker to sync up an ability (which is why i asked for a global update function)

[idle plaza]

It is possible to hook Game:update(dt), but that'll run extra every frame, all the time. Even when you have none of that joker, some extra code would need to be ran to check if the jokers exist or not.

Alternatively, can track the passage of time using using os.time() instead of the provided dt within the Joker's update function. os.time() will always be the same number each time it's called at the exact time.

[fading rivet]

How could I increase the amount of mult individual glass cards give?

[grizzled tide]

o, the second option works for me, thanks so much

[fading rivet]

I tried changing card.ability.Xmult, but that only seems to change the display

[grizzled tide]

do you happen to know how to get milliseconds?

[idle plaza]

Looked it up, forgot os.clock() existed, that one has milliseconds (as decimals, so 1 full unit still equals 1 second)

[grizzled tide]

sick, once again thank you

[near coral]

I forgor is this channel mainly for coding questions or can practical things be asked here too

Like if a joker effect is good or not

[granite apex]

I think that'd be better fit for modding general yeah

[near coral]

That's just an example

My real question is how to better word something

[granite apex]

Would still say general but I guess I didn't make the channel and I dont think it's that important either way

dev is mostly coding oriented though

[near coral]

Darn

Dagnabbit even

[granite apex]

Looking to reevalute cards in hand from a get_straight hook override, but at the moment, only the hand type changes and it still plays a single card. Anyone got an idea of what's missing with the way I return the hand here? Do I actually need to change another hook to for scoring effects?

[random basin]

is there a way to force a UIbox to close? calling G.FUNCS.exit_overlay_menu() this way doesn't work

        if initialized_frame and not has_voted then
            video_file:play()
            has_voted = true
        end
    end

    local old_update = love.update
    function love.update(dt)
        if old_update then old_update(dt) end

        if not initialized_frame and video_file:tell() >= pausetime then
            video_file:pause()
            initialized_frame = true
        end

        if has_voted and not video_file then
            G.FUNCS.exit_overlay_menu()
        end
    end```

or is there a way to disable a button on a boolean instead of a timer

[quick scarab]

Ok it worked, however now I tried to implement sliders so that the player can choose the value amount for those cards to use, and it seems to be causing a different crash

local freddy_slider = create_slider({
        min = 0,
        max = 63,
        step = 1,
        w = 5,
        ref_table = FNAF.config,
        ref_value = 'completion',
    })

 return {
        n = G.UIT.ROOT, config = { r = 0.15, minw = 15, minh = 7, align = "cm", padding = 0.01, colour = G.C.BLACK },
        nodes = {
            { n = G.UIT.R, config = { align = "tm" },
                nodes = {
                    voice_toggle, -- the option itself
                    voice_slider,

Is there a way to make things lose sell value without affecting their prices in the shops

For bizarro to the moon (called Market Crash)

I originally came up with the effect before I learned that shop prices and sell values are connected

[lusty marten]

hey , what is the id of Run Info?

[rapid stag]

bump

[keen atlas]

you need to set completion value initially

[near coral]

Is it possible to make this happen

Or are sell values hardcoded to shop prices

[random basin]

how do I center align text in custom UI?

[cerulean aspen]

how do i make a joker that multiplies the value of the card to the left of it by ^2

like gemini but better

[elder rune]

Nope, it's possible

But idk how

[timid zinc]

My blind has a "halo-like" effect around it. In the atlas file it looks normal

[near coral]

So you can reduce a cost value and have the sell value stay the same
And you can reduce a sell value and keep the cost value the same

[cerulean aspen]

anyone know how to make a joker that multiplies the value of the joker to the left by ^2?

[elder rune]

Yeah, Balatro has 2 functions that each calculate cost and sell cost on their own

[near coral]

Oh

[elder rune]

Probably just hook them ig

[elder rune]

Just check how cryptid does it

[cerulean aspen]

what do i look for

[elder rune]

Gemini's code

[cerulean aspen]

do i just copy paste?

[elder rune]

Not really, Cryptid is sometimes pretty weird but just so you can see how they manipulate Joker values

[cerulean aspen]

alr

[cerulean aspen]

can u help me with it or atleast understanding it? cause from what i have tried it just crashes

[elder rune]

Cryptid has a function called "Cryptid.Manipulate" that well, manipulates joker values. So have you found yet how that function works

[cerulean aspen]

all i know is that it changes values of a joker but idk how it decides that joker

[cerulean aspen]

but yes i have found it

[elder rune]

This

[cerulean aspen]

yes ive found that

[elder rune]

So it first takes the left most joker (position 1 of the table), then checks if that joker has "immutable" as true (immutable meaning unchanging). Then it just does the manipulation

[cerulean aspen]

ah okay, how would i change it to ^2?

[elder rune]

Don't think calling Cryptid.manipulate would be the way. So probably just whatever it calls

[cerulean aspen]

so call it joker.manipulate?

[cerulean aspen]

wait what do you mean by that\

[elder rune]

Gimme a sec

[cerulean aspen]

alr

[elder rune]

Oh

Lowkey thought that cryptid called the Smods functions

[cerulean aspen]

heh?

[cerulean aspen]

wdym by that

[elder rune]

Holdob

[random basin]

create_slider crashes my game with no crash log

[elder rune]

I swear I know Smods also has a manipulate function

[still hedge]

bombler scare jump

[cerulean aspen]

it might

[cerulean aspen]

AHH BIG BOMB

[cerulean aspen]

i may have found it

[elder rune]

Yay

[cerulean aspen]

wait

wrong thing

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/0827#smodsscale_card

@elder rune is this it?

[elder rune]

Uhhh

[cerulean aspen]

or u got any ideas on how to do it?

[elder rune]

Seems like its correct

[elder rune]

I've done it before

[cerulean aspen]

oo nice i have like 0 knowledge of modding or atleast some knowledge

[elder rune]

https://github.com/BBreuhh/Oscilllate/blob/main/Oscillate/items/Legendary.lua

Scroll down to the joker with the "dadproud" key

This function changes the values, the green highlighted is what actually changes them

[cerulean aspen]

happy dad

[cerulean aspen]

do i copy and paste that into my code?

or how do i implement it

[elder rune]

You can copy paste it idc

[cerulean aspen]

where would i put it?

wait

it prob dosent have verything so nvm

[cerulean aspen]

thank you this helped lots

[cerulean aspen]

wait quick question how do i set a thing in the table (like in the config = {extra = { ... ) to the title / display?

like the text

[elder rune]

?

[cerulean aspen]

so for this i alr have the #1# setup but i want to change the 4 to whatever hyperside value is

[cerulean aspen]

but i kinda forgot how to set display

[elder rune]

Loc_vars

You literally have that function in there so just make it also return hyperside

Then do #2#

[cerulean aspen]

do i do after hypermult {...}, {card.ability.extra.hyperside}

?

[elder rune]

in loc_vars:
return { vars = { card.ability.extra.hypermult, card.ability.extra.hyperside } }

[cerulean aspen]

ah okay

thank u

[elder rune]

Also pretty sure the notation for hyper operations is {n} and not [n]

[winter flower]

it’s a “replacement” considering “{}” is used for formatting

[cerulean aspen]

is there a glitch or bug or smth that affects the rarity of something apearing in shop? niko who is a god is only a rare, yet it hasnt apeared once

[elder rune]

Unlucky

[elder rune]

\

[cerulean aspen]

i mean idk if its just unlucky, cause ussually on average i dont even find a niko who can summon a god within about the first 300-400 rerolls

[elder rune]

Why don't you just spawn it in

[cerulean aspen]

i do

[cerulean aspen]

but im just testing it and messing around

[cerulean aspen]

also im seeing chances and wether it even works cause its so hard to get niko that i cant even test it properly

I'll just run the final ease_dollars through math_floor ig

[sage crater]

how do I check how long a joker instance has existed for?

I’m trying to do joker combining shenanigans, and I want the oldest joker to always be the one to create the new card so the two jokers don’t both create a copy

Is there an ease_(thing) function for Boss Blind chips?

[subtle merlin]

Pinging a message from last year is... bold...

[granite jay]

I found that when tryna find a different answer

But yeah that's smth I tend to do >:3

[glass scaffold]

Now it's my turn

[subtle merlin]

I understand that, but please do not do that to us again.

[granite jay]

Fair, will do

[granite apex]

Finally feeling like I'm near a solution here: I'm sending my G.Play cards to my get_straights hook, which calculates which played cards will be played under new rules and count them as a straight. I'm then trying to score each of the cards I'm getting sent back manually, which should, in theory, only count my custom straight cards. However, I'm getting a crash on play. Anybody know what's wrong with my call to score_card?

[subtle merlin]

We have not even been here since... December?

Scared us to get a ping here

[granite jay]

Can you make cards larger through enhancements?

Or at least if the rank/suit is not shown?

Cos I'm tryna make an enhancement where the card has no rank or suit and the enhancement sprite is larger than normal bounds.

o wait nvm u just use display_size in smods.enhancement

[granite jay]

no that aint workin

[kindred niche]

Whats the best way to achieve the effect that the plasma deck has on its art

Assuming it is not just meticulus detail ofc

[thorn ingot]

Hey guys. do you know how to make a joker not trigger itself while triggering others?

I've been able to make it trigger others but it's also triggering itself, with the same ability.

[gilded blaze]

if context.retrigger_joker_check and not context.retrigger_joker then

[daring fern]

Code?

[granite jay]

Anyone know how to make this card larger to fit? It's an enhancement btw
The size of the card sprite has a greater height than 95 but fsr the game squishes the sprite and display_size does not work

[limber aspen]

Try adding pixel_size if you didn't

[thorn ingot]

Here you go. Thanks for replying.
It's a Joker from a mod I wanted to tinker with, usually I just play around with values and lines of code, but this time I wanted to do more and turns out I'm not there yet, haha.

[thorn ingot]

uum. That didn't seem to work, but it's quite possible I'm messing it up.
Thanks for answering.

[hidden aspen]

how to start with a particular jocker so i can test it?

do i need to make a custom deck?

[kindred niche]

Follow the setup on the SMODS wiki and then download DebugPlus to spawn the joker on any deck

[hidden aspen]

ty

[kindred niche]

np

[lusty marten]

hey , how to draw wipe in Run Info?

[hidden aspen]

i downloaded debug plus but i dont get which command to run to spawn my joker? or do i have to write my own command

i figured out you can spawn jokers by hovering over them in the collection and pressing 3

[frail parcel]

why doesnt this work
im trying to make a deck that adds chips
it adds the chips then gets instantly reverted

[wintry solar]

You can’t do any mult or chip changes in context before

[hidden aspen]

i figured out how to spawn through the collection using the [3] htokey

[frail parcel]

bruh

[shell timber]

you want initial_scoring_step probably

[granite jay]

That didn’t work

[primal robin]

Unfortunately to make UI things work properly I need just copy SMODS patches for them.
I guess I really should consider license

[pale holly]

⁨```lua
calculate = function(self, card, context)
local my_pos = nil
for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
if G.jokers.cards[i] == card then
my_pos = i
break
end
end
if (context.end_of_round or context.ending_shop) and (G.jokers.cards[my_pos - 1] == "j_mii_DSTcactus") or (G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1] == "j_mii_DSTcactus") then
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
trigger = 'after',
delay = 0.0,
func = function()
SMODS.destroy_cards({card}, nil, nil, true)
anhilated = true
message = "FUUC-"
return true
end
}))

        return true
    end

end,
⁨```

trying to make my joker detect a specific joker if it's either on its left or right but doesn't work, any help please ?

[mystic river]

you're comparing a card object directly to a key

that won't work

you can get the key out of the card object for a proper comparison, it's in card.config.center.key (and also card.config.center_key for some reason)

[normal crest]

one less table index, yay

[ocean remnant]

I'm pretty new to modding so I hope that this isn't a stupid question, but how can I change the x/y position of a joker?

[mystic river]

which x/y position? the location on screen, the atlas?

[daring fern]

‎

[pale holly]

so basically i should do something like
⁨```lua
local right_card = {}
local left_card = {}
if (context.end_of_round or context.ending_shop) then
right_card = card.config.center.key[my_pos + 1]
left_card = card.config.center.key[my_pos - 1]

if right_card == "j_mii_DSTcactus" or left_card == "j_mii_DSTcactus" then
⁨```

probably the code on itself is wrong but the rough idea is this right ?

[mystic river]

that's super unnecessary

G.jokers.cards[my_pos ± 1] is already a card, you can just get the key out of there

(after first confirming that it's not nil, of course)

[pale holly]

⁨lua if (context.end_of_round or context.ending_shop) and (G.jokers.cards[my_pos - 1].config.center.key == "j_mii_DSTcactus") or (G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1].config.center.key == "j_mii_DSTcactus") then ⁨

so like this then ?

[mystic river]

almost
G.jokers.cards[my_pos - 1] will be nil and crash if my_pos is 1

so put in a check for that

[pale holly]

⁨lua if (context.end_of_round or context.ending_shop) and (my_pos ~= 1 and G.jokers.cards[my_pos - 1].config.center.key == "j_mii_DSTcactus") or (G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1].config.center.key == "j_mii_DSTcactus") then ⁨

i think this should do it

set a check so my_pos has to verify it isn't 1 first

[tidal hemlock]

hey devs, how possible would be to program this:
Joker X isnt able to spawn if you have Joker Y, and vice versa, all except if you have Showman

[mystic river]

make x and y's in_pool functions return false if the other exists and showman doesn't

use SMODS.showman if you want that to be compatible with any modded showman-alike effects

[tidal hemlock]

ok what if one of them is vanilla
or does that not matter, sorry not very experienced (meaning having 0 experience at all)

[mystic river]

if one of them is vanilla, take ownership of it and give it an in_pool

(no vanilla jokers have that function already, so don't worry about accidentally stomping it)

(but if you want to be absolutely sure you're not stomping an in_pool added by some other mod, check whether SMODS.Joker[key].in_pool is a function and if so incorporate its return value however you like)

actually strike that i don't think that works the way i thought it did

[daring fern]

No, it's G.P_CENTERS['j_key'].in_pool

[mystic river]

i don't think it'll have been injected yet at this point in the code

okay, after some digging, SMODS.Centers is the correct table

[daring fern]

No, G.P_CENTERS still works for vanilla jokers.

[mystic river]

would taking ownership have been reflected by this point in the loading process?

[daring fern]

Yes, if the other mod loaded before the current one.

[mystic river]

after testing it looks like both of them work as i expected them to, for vanilla jokers at least (modded jokers not tested yet)
i don't know if there's any meaningful difference between looking in one table or the other in that case

[pale holly]

⁨lua if (context.end_of_round or context.ending_shop) and (my_pos ~= 1 and G.jokers.cards[my_pos - 1].config.center.key == "j_mii_DSTcactus") or (G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1].config.center.key == "j_mii_DSTcactus") then ⁨

well i'm not sure what i did wrong

unlless

oh

shouldn't have just use "my_pos" right ?

[pale holly]

nvm fixed it

[mystic river]

oh, it'll also crash if it's the rightmost joker. silly oversight

my_pos ~= #G.jokers.cards

[pale holly]

yeah i just made so a check if the there's a joker left or right to itself, that way it won't crash

[mystic river]

yeah

[pale holly]

⁨```lua
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
trigger = 'after',
delay = 0.0,
func = function()
card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({ x = 0, y = 1 })
SMODS.destroy_cards({card}, nil, nil, true)
anhilated = true
message = "FUUC-"
return true
end
}))

        return true
    end

⁨```

one thing tho, i tried to make my joker have a message like how gros michel goes extinct but it does nothing, the rest yet does work

[white hull]

use SMODS.calculate_effect() to use return table values like message outside of a return table

[pale holly]

How so exactly ? Just SMODS.calculate_effect(message = "FUUC-") ?

[daring fern]

No, it would be: ```lua
return {func = function()
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
func = function()
card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({ x = 0, y = 1 })
SMODS.destroy_cards({card}, nil, nil, true)
anhilated = true
SMODS.calculate_effect({message = 'message', instant = true}, card)
return true
end
}))
delay(0.9375)
end}

[pale holly]

alrighty then, but what about the delay ?

[daring fern]

That's so it doesn't instantly go to the next event.

[pale holly]

so like this, it should go all at once no?

[pale holly]

is SMODS.calculate_message something from the recent Smods ?

actually i'll update my smods and see

[idle plaza]

The suggestestion was calculate_effect, not calculate_message, so I think they just mistyped it. If updating doesn't work, try calculate_effect instead

[pale holly]

well i didn't saw any calculate_message in the smods release, so i'll probably try calculate_effect instead

well i used calculate effect but now

⁨```lua
calculate = function(self, card, context)
local my_pos = nil
for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
if G.jokers.cards[i] == card then
my_pos = i
break
end
end
if (context.end_of_round or context.ending_shop) and ((G.jokers.cards[my_pos - 1] and G.jokers.cards[my_pos - 1].config.center.key == "j_mii_DSTcactus") or
(G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1] and G.jokers.cards[my_pos + 1].config.center.key == "j_mii_DSTcactus")) then
return {func = function()
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
trigger = 'after',
delay = 0.0,
func = function()
card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({ x = 0, y = 1 })
SMODS.destroy_cards({card}, nil, nil, true)
anhilated = true
SMODS.calculate_effect({message = 'message', instant = true})
return true
end
}))
delay(0.9375)
end}

    end

end,
⁨```

[idle plaza]

Oh I see. Looked up calculate_effect usage and it should be SMODS.calculate_effect({message = 'message', instant = true}, card)

Basically it just needs to know which card is making the message.

[pale holly]

Noted, thanks

[cerulean aspen]

so i have done something it somehow makes it so if it isnt a specific joker it does nothing and just says upgraded

[elder rune]

just specify a joker smh

[cerulean aspen]

well

uh

[cerulean aspen]

is baron considered "immutatable"?

[elder rune]

oh that, just that Balatro handles Joker values differently compared to mods

[cerulean aspen]

ohhh

[elder rune]

idk fix

[cerulean aspen]

ah okay

cause uh

anything with xmult

dosent work

but anything without xmult (lust joker lets say) does work

cause its + mult

[elder rune]

idk either

[cerulean aspen]

or anything iwth money idk this is confusing

[pale holly]

well now it works but for some reason it'll retrigger a few times before stopping

[daring fern]

https://github.com/Somethingcom515/SealsOnJokers/blob/dev/main.lua#L4140-L4182

[cerulean aspen]

?

[daring fern]

Yes, you need to check context.main_eval

[cerulean aspen]

whats this for?

[daring fern]

You should use this function instead.

[cerulean aspen]

alr

[cerulean aspen]

now it just crashes

wait

yeah when i get the joker that ncan manipulate values and another joker it just crashes and gives me this message

@daring fern :)

[daring fern]

Yes, remove the SEALS.

[cerulean aspen]

ah okay

[cerulean aspen]

uh it does nothing

[daring fern]

Code?

[cerulean aspen]

dont mind the ` at the start and end

thats just in that msg not in the code

@daring fern theres the code

[daring fern]

Move the functions out of the joker definition, also your not using the function.

[bright crane]

Hi, I'm pretty new to modding - I'm trying to record the last joker sold for a specific consumable that would create a copy of that joker (kinda similar to fool creating a consumable for G.GAME.last_tarot_planet). I hooked Game.start_run to initialize a variable to house that joker key, but I don't know to get it to update when a joker gets sold

[cerulean aspen]

i am using the function tho?

[cerulean aspen]

also wdym joker definition

[daring fern]

Where?

[daring fern]

No, you're defining it, not using it.

[cerulean aspen]

?????? im so confused

[cerulean aspen]

how would i use it then

@daring fern how would i use it?????

[daring fern]

modify_joker_values(card, {['^'] = 2})

[cerulean aspen]

in the return section?

[cerulean aspen]

i did this for it but when i beat the blind then modify the joker but it just crashes with this error

@daring fern

or if anyone can help me with it

[dapper sun]

how would i re-enable ui on a menu_cards card

[umbral zodiac]

could be wrong but probably just set card.no_ui to false

[dapper sun]

i'm doing this and it isn't working

ellejokers.mod_data.menu_cards = function()
    return {
        key = "j_elle_elle",
        no_edition = true,
        no_ui = false
    }
end```

[umbral zodiac]

oh idk if create_card takes it as a parameter

[white hull]

why isn't my achievement unlocking? i don't see what the problem is at all

EDIT: unlock_achievement() doesn't do the thing if you're in a challenge, so I had to patch it

[cerulean aspen]

anyone know why this crashes my game when the blind ends?

[umbral zodiac]

you might need to manually set no_ui on the card to false somehow

[daring fern]

func = function()
    for k, v in pairs(G.title_top.cards) do
        if v.config.center.key == 'j_elle_elle' then
            v.no_ui = false
        end
    end
end

[wild patrol]

what do you think

[cerulean aspen]

if anyone knows how to fix this?????

[cerulean aspen]

w

[wild patrol]

what's the crash say

[unkempt badge]

so like im literally completely new to this, but i want to make a custom language pack, so.. how could i even do that?

[daring fern]

Log? Also move the function definitions out of the SMODS.Joker definition.

[cerulean aspen]

?

[wild patrol]

what does line 96 in your main file show

[daring fern]

It's context.main_eval not context.main.eval

[wild patrol]

^

[cerulean aspen]

i found it

[daring fern]

The functions are being defined in the calculate function of the SMODS.Joker definition, move them out of both of those.

[cerulean aspen]

\ohh okay

[pale holly]

If i want to use a custom color for the message of my joker, i know i gotta use loc_colour but should do something like

loc_colour()
G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS.mii_JJ = HEX('50a96')

outside of my joker and then

SMODS.calculate_effect({message = 'message', colour = G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS.mii_JJ}, card)

or do i need i need to do differently ?

[cerulean aspen]

wait before or after the calculate function? cause now it just crashes with this

[dapper sun]

ty

[daring fern]

No, you don't, just do colour = HEX('50a96')

[pale holly]

ah alright thanks

[cerulean aspen]

@wild patrol do u know how to fix this??

or @daring fern

[daring fern]

No, outside of the SMODS.Joker definition.

[cerulean aspen]

outside of the joker completely????

[cerulean aspen]

wdym out of the smods.joker definition???????

@daring fern wdym like outside of the entire joker or like where????

[dapper sun]

now how do i fix this,,?

[cerulean aspen]

i dont understand 😭

[white hull]

yes, outside of the joker

[cerulean aspen]

before or after

[white hull]

before, so the code that comes after your functions can use the functions

[cerulean aspen]

ohhh

that makes more sense

[umbral zodiac]

small note

for lsp recognizing your code it should go before

but for the purposes of just using the function it can go anywhere

since by the time the joker's functions are called, it's already long ago ran through the rest of the file and defined those functions

[dapper sun]

anyone know,,?

[cerulean aspen]

not me sorry

[dapper sun]

ik dw

[umbral zodiac]

is this just a demo card that is only used for the main mennu

[primal robin]

card.no_ui or smth

[cerulean aspen]

hmmm okay, also do you know why this dosent level up highcard?

[dapper sun]

i meant the locked description, i want the desc

[umbral zodiac]

if so add discovered = true, unlocked = true to its definition

[primal robin]

bypass_discovery_ui

[dapper sun]

ty

[dapper sun]

no

[umbral zodiac]

then do the other thing

[cerulean aspen]

now it just crashes on loading :(

[umbral zodiac]

ive never touched anything level up hand related from cards sorry

[dapper sun]

it's still doing it

[cerulean aspen]

alr

[primal robin]

how you create a card

[dapper sun]

menu_cards

ellejokers.mod_data.menu_cards = function()
    return {
        -- Elle on title card
        {key = "j_elle_elle",
        no_edition = true},
        
        -- Let it have a description
        -- ty @somethingcom515 for this lol
        func = function()
            for k, v in pairs(G.title_top.cards) do
                if v.config.center.key == 'j_elle_elle' then
                    v.no_ui = false
                    v.bypass_discovery_ui = true
                end
            end
        end
    }
end```

[primal robin]

Im not sure can you define it like this

[dapper sun]

yes

the no_ui works

wdym

[primal robin]

You probably should move bypass_discovery_ui to definition object rather than function

[dapper sun]

ok

[cerulean aspen]

okay so this code i have, yet neither of the jokers which multiply values actually multiply the values

[dapper sun]

still doing it

[white hull]

If there are multiple pattern matches for a lovely patch, does it patch all of them? Or does it not work at all?

[cerulean aspen]

@umbral zodiac do u know wh this isnt working or no?

[umbral zodiac]

without a crashlog i would have no clue

[cerulean aspen]

it dosent crash thats the thing

[slim ferry]

It also needs level_up = true

[primal robin]

By default patch all, but you can specify amount of matches to process

[slim ferry]

Alongside the ahnd

[cerulean aspen]

it just

dosent multiply values of anything

[white hull]

Oh lovely lovely

I thought it would crash lol

[cerulean aspen]

where would i put that?

[slim ferry]

Also in the return

[dapper sun]

it's ✨still not working✨

[cerulean aspen]

like this?

[slim ferry]

Yes

[cerulean aspen]

also can u help me with the multiplying values issue where it dosent actually change the values of anything?

[primal robin]

Cant check rn, if you can wait a bit I'll take a look

[slim ferry]

No i have never actually done anything like that

[cerulean aspen]

ah okay

[daring fern]

It's because your modifying the values of card, instead of the joker you want to modify the values of.

[cerulean aspen]

how would i change that

[cerulean aspen]

or how would i fix that???

[slim ferry]

Bu

By

Putting a different card into the function?

[cerulean aspen]

huh

wait do i just change card to joker?

[slim ferry]

Wdym huh

No

No

[cerulean aspen]

I dont understan

[slim ferry]

you need to

[cerulean aspen]

understand

[slim ferry]

like

[daring fern]

local other_joker = {}
for k, v in pairs(G.jokers.cards) do
    if v == card then other_joker = G.jokers.cards[k-1] end
end
return {func = function() modify_joker_values(other_joker, {['^'] = 2}) end}

[slim ferry]

Actually get another card object as a variable

It isnt going to magically do every joker you want

[cerulean aspen]

im guessing i put that in the calculate function?

[cerulean aspen]

makes sense

[daring fern]

Yes, it would replace the: ```lua
return {
modify_joker_values(card, { ['^'] = 2 })
}

[cerulean aspen]

ah oaky

ty

[cerulean aspen]

is this the correct format to say at end of round then multiply values?

cause it dosent actually multiply anything when i beat the blind

@daring fern

or if anyone knows how it works

[cerulean aspen]

what would i do to fix it if it still dosent multiply the values of other jokers ? herres the code

@daring fern if u can help

[dapper sun]

bypass_lock

[primal robin]

Oh yea right its locked

I missed it with is card discovered

My bad

[cerulean aspen]

anyone know how to make this actually work

[cloud thistle]

how do i set unlocked to false on every joker and consumable (and booster packs if thats possible) of a mod (specifically cryptid) without doing it manually

do i have to write a program to generate the code?

[daring fern]

The first return should be:

return {
    message = 'Upgraded sell value!',
    colour = G.C.YELLOW,
    func = function() modify_joker_values(other_joker, {['^'] = 2}) end
}

[cerulean aspen]

ohh okay

[cerulean aspen]

also keep the other one with the local other_joker...

[cloud thistle]

or remove everything from cryptid from the game except when i want to

[slim ferry]

Why dont you just

Disable the mod
