#

is SMODS.displaying_scoring the correct context to check anyway?

#

a better question, how do modders check current in-game values?

frosty dock
hushed stump
#

correct for checking when is the poker hand displayed

frosty rampart
#

debugplus has a console you can access at any time by pressing /
you can run eval any valid lua code in the console to run code

frosty dock
#

i'm not sure what exactly SMODS.displaying_scoring is used for, but i don't think it helps you if you're just evaling things?

hushed stump
frosty rampart
#

you can just eval it in the console on G.hand.highlighted instead

frosty dock
#

eval doesn't help you run code at any specific timing other than through hooks

#

checking for SMODS.displaying_scoring will check if it's true right now and doesn't care about what happens sometime else

hushed stump
#

okay...

frosty rampart
#

i feel like you're still missing the point that debugplus has a console where you can evaluate code at will

hushed stump
#

i'm testing that

#

but

frosty dock
#

if you want to constantly display the info while hand is being selected, you want UI for this like I said

idk if i should evaluate it with G.play.cards as an argument

#

it returned all possible hands

#

but not just with my cards, with all cards

frosty dock
#

it returned no hands, actually

#

all of these are empty

hushed stump
#

oh

frosty dock
#

you want G.hand.highlighted

frosty rampart
#

G.play.cards only exists while a hand is being scored, if you run the code any time else it's empty
like i and aure said, you should do it with G.hand.highlighted instead, and that will get the poker hand info based on the hand you currently have selected

frosty dock
#

cards only move to G.play once you play them, otherwise it's empty

#

how do i display the description for a custom edition?

#

this isnt working, but idk why

hushed stump

sleek valley
#

ah, thx

frosty rampart
#

^ editions have an e_ prefix, like jokers have a j_ prefix

hushed stump
#

Alr that's more reasonable but what do these values even mean

📎 table.txt
#

i see that the available poker hands have a table, and the other ones have an empty table

frosty dock
#

printing cards is usually unhelpful

#

as for what these are, each entry is an array of arrays of cards, each representing a possible instance of the hand

hushed stump
mystic river
#

all you did was put its returns into local variables
you need to return the variable you want in the eval

frosty dock
#

assigning things to local variables does return nil

#

also you messed that codeblock up pretty bad

hushed stump
hushed stump
frosty dock
#

it's because you have unescaped _ making italics

discord likes to be extremely funky with those

yeeeey
at least i got the hand it should be played. it's the first argument of the table. no surprise

#

seems like it's a table containing a very big bunch of tables. that's not good

does it not affect poker hand evaluation or am i just stupid

Hey guys. Do you know if I can make a deck give a tag at the beginning using the config like with vouchers?

I tried to use config = { tag = { 'tag_coupon' },, but it doesn't work. 😑

faint yacht
#

Add an event in apply function that gives a tag.

apply = function(self, back)
    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
        func = function()
            if G.playing_cards then
                add_tag(Tag('tag_coupon'))
                play_sound('generic1', 0.9 + math.random()*0.1, 0.8)
                play_sound('holo1', 0.4, 1)
                return true
            end
        end,
    }))
end,

for adding a Coupon Tag at start of run, as example.

can someone help me understand the booster pack background colour?
vremade uses G.STATES and i see cryptid using G.C but i dont know how to make either of those work for me
i have the custom colours i want to use, i just dont know how to write it properly

image.png image.png
frosty rampart
# sleek valley can someone help me understand the booster pack background colour? vremade uses ...

the G.STATES stuff only works with vanilla stuff, it will be of no use here
for custom colors, here's what you do

ease_background_colour = function(self)
  ease_colour(G.C.DYN_UI.MAIN, CUSTOM_COLOR_HERE)
  ease_background_colour { new_colour = CUSTOM_COLOR_HERE, special_colour = G.C.BLACK, contrast = 2 }
end

replace CUSTOM_COLOR_HERE with whatever color you want. for the simplest way to go about it, you can literally just use HEX("FF00FF") with any hex color code; cryptid saves them in G.C but that's not strictly necessary, it's only a time save for if you use the color in a lot of places and you end up wanting to change it

sleek valley
#

Ah okay, so does that just mean G.C is just another form of G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS?

daring fern
sleek valley
#

Well shit then

sleek valley
normal crest
#

you don't need to put them in G.C

#

if you're only going to use it for the booster you could define a local variable before the call to SMODS.Booster for example

faint yacht
#

Or just pass HEX('FFFFFF') directly.

# 
ease_background_colour({ new_colour = HEX("515966"), special_colour = HEX("121417"), contrast = 1.25 })

also works.

rapid stag
#

...hm? i thought HEX() only took 8-digit hex codes

last time i did a 6-digit hex code, i got a crash

faint yacht
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

# 
function HEX(hex)
  if #hex <= 6 then hex = hex.."FF" end
  local _,_,r,g,b,a = hex:find('(%x%x)(%x%x)(%x%x)(%x%x)')
  local color = {tonumber(r,16)/255,tonumber(g,16)/255,tonumber(b,16)/255,tonumber(a,16)/255 or 255}
  return color
end

heya folks, was wondering if anyone knew how to check if a played poker hand contains a certain enhancement? i'm doing it with custom one but even just knowing if it has a stone card for example will do lol

#

the final goal is to check for a pair with at least one card having whatever enhancement

#

i've seen mods with poker hands having stone cards and stuff before so i know it should be possible

#

just not sure where to look

daring fern
# light tangle just not sure where to look 
if context.scoring_name == 'Pair' then
    local passed = false
    for k, v in pairs(context.scoring_hand) do
        if SMODS.has_enhancement(v, 'm_modprefix_key') then
            passed = true
        end
    end
    if passed then
    end

#

would this be in the evaluate for the poker hand?

        if next(parts._2) then
            print("SB -- is pair")
            local settebello = false

            local _pair = parts._2

            for _,v in ipairs(_pair) do
                print(#_pair)
                for i = 1, #v do
                    print("SB -- ", v[i].base.value)
                    print("SB -- ", v[i].config.center_key)
                    settebello = settebello or v[i].config.center_key == 'm_sb_settebello'
                end
            end

            if settebello then
                return parts._2

how to make the game update what poker hand you're making when you move cards instead of just selecting/deselecting

fading rivet
#

how can I tell if a card is generated in the collection

daring fern
fading rivet
#

thx

wary moth
#

Is there ways to manipulate the calculation process mid-calculation?
As two examples of what I mean:

  • A joker that changes the card scoring to happen upon the joker itself scoring instead (so that scoring starts at held-in-hand, then scores jokers until it reaches this joker, in which case it scores your cards, and then continues scoring the rest of the jokers to the right of this one)
  • A joker that skips scoring the joker to the right (different from a debuff since its only blocking the "context.cardarea == G.jokers and context.joker_main" context on the joker to the right)
daring fern
wary moth
# daring fern For the first one you would hook `SMODS.calculate_main_scoring` and end it early...

Oh wow, super cool that this is possible at all
What would hooking SMODS.calculate_main_scoring look like?
I know I can hook like this:

local old_main_scoring_func = SMODS.calculate_main_scoring
function SMODS.calulcate_main_scoring(context, scoring_hand)
   --Some Code here to do prior
   old_main_scoring_func(context, scoring_hand)
   --Some Code here to do after
end

But, it sounds like you're suggesting here to modify something mid-function, and I'm not sure where I would go about doing that

frosty dock
#

for mid-function modifications, you'd have to use a lovely patch

wary moth
#

ahh okay I'll have to look into that ty

#

#

For the first example, could I just hook eval_card, skip and cache anything where context.cardarea == G.play and then call the cache when the card is that joker?

I feel so dumb most the time lol, I feel like I barely know what I'm doing or whats going on
New to modding, and modding balatro, and new to some of the enviornments (like navigating github wikis), so I think I'm missing a lot of common knowledge

lyric wadi
#

to be fair the common knowledge is very badly documented

#

like github wiki is terrible at being a wiki

wary moth
#

I got a whole lot of C# programming experience, so, I'm working off of mostly JUST that (which is vastly different from lua), and skimming through examples and discord history
I really appreciate the people here, yall been like, very very helpful

lyric wadi
#

and most of the answers you'd want are lost in the logs of this chat

wary moth
lyric wadi
#

so honestly your best bet to find any answer is first check vanillaremade, then Ctrl+F in this chat

#

most of the time it worked for me

#

but then if something isnt there i just ask here, so it exist in this channel

#

not ideal but it's the best we have for now

wary moth
#

thats pretty much what I've been doing so far lol, sometimes the searching is hard to hit a balance between specific enough to address my problem instead of 100s of others, and un-specific enough to be something that people actually had help with before in the discord

#

Looking at this on the vanilla remade wiki and Yeahhhh I think I just need to start using VSCode instead of just Visual Studio, because it looks like all the setup is for that, and aside from some of the plugins that help me with C# programming, its basically just a fancy colored notepad without any context menus or anything lol

lyric wadi
#

well no

#

this is showing you how to set up the Lua environment IF you're using vscode or any vscode-based editor

#

but like you can very well use your preferred editor, ive seen some use notepad++ or heck even normal notepad

#

the lua environment setup is just to aid you with syntax autofil and basic debugging

wary moth
lyric wadi
#

i mean if you're gonna start now then get vscodium maybe

#

surely a lua plugin is avaiable

#

im still using vscode just because i dont want to setup everything anew

#

but like for all i know use atom that's a perfectly good ide

slim ferry
#

vscodium is just a vscode fork i think

#

But debloated

#

so most things should be similar

lyric wadi
#

yea, and that debloat helps a lot from what i know

#

like im doing fine but there are some noticable chugs as it's trying to present its copilot bullshit on me

#

Awesome ty for the suggestion I'll check it out

wary moth
#

Just a question
Do I need to worry about assigning anything to my mods global table mixing with other mods? Or are each mods given their own enviornment?

mystic river
#

mods are not given their own environment, no
but accidental overlap is rare. just give your table a reasonably unique name and not like, MyMod

gilded blaze
#

just set your mod object to a global table named with your mod id

#

example with mine: Sagatro = SMODS.current_mod
it's just that simple

wary moth
#

slim ferry
#

i usually just use my mod prefix in uppercase

#

since its shorter

#

tables and functions in lua are always references

if you know pointers in C, it's pretty much similar

#

If I wanted to make a Riff-Raff clone for modded Jokers, is there a parameter I could use for add_card to specify what mod it should pull from?

frosty rampart
#

if it's just for your own mod, you should just add an attribute to all your modded jokers and then use SMODS.poll_object to get the key of a random joker with that attribute

dapper sun
#

what if it's not

frosty rampart
vocal helm
#

woah

frosty rampart

something like this:

    local new_pool = {}
    for i, v in ipairs(pool) do
      if G.P_CENTERS[v.key].original_mod.id == whatever then
        new_pool[#new_pool + 1] = v

Okay now it's not crashing, but it doesn't do anything when used

sanity check: ```lua

#

i forget whether the smods suits/ranks classes are singular or plural

frosty rampart
#

plural, but you'll want to do pseudorandom_element(SMODS.Suits).key (and the same with ranks)

#

change_base takes just the key, while SMODS.Suits and SMODS.Ranks contain the whole suit and rank objects

I've gotten to here

calculate = function(self, card, context)
    if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play and context.other_card:get_id() == 12 then 
      print("SEX")
      card.ability.extra.death_card = pseudorandom_element(G.hand.cards)
      if card.ability.extra.death_card then
        G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
            func = function()
              SMODS.add_card{ set = "Base", rank = "Jack"}
              SMODS.destroy_cards(card.ability.extra.death_card, nil, true)
              return true
            end
          }))
      end
    end
  end

But if playing like 3 of a kind queens, they all destory the same card. Is there a way to make them each randomise what they destroy?

faint yacht
#

...you shouldn't destroy cards like such mid-scoring. Consider tagging the randomly selected card in your existing check.

local rndcard = pseudorandom_element(G.hand.cards)
rndcard.slayqueen = true

and then checking against context.destroy_card.

if context.destroy_card and context.destroy_card.slayqueen then return { remove = true } end
rapid stag
#

i'm planning out a showman-esque joker that also gives 1xmult for every duplicate held. what's the most efficient way to check how many duplicate jokers exist in G.jokers.cards? cirThink

e.g. if you have say, 2 blueprints and 2 brainstorms, that would be x3 mult (because 2 duplicates after x1 base)

#

off the top of my head, i think

# 
local existing_joker_keys = {}
local dupeCount = 0
for _, jkr in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
  if existing_joker_keys[jkr.config.center.key] then
    dupeCount = dupeCount + 1
  else
    existing_joker_keys[jkr.config.center.key] = true
  end
end
#

and i can't help but wonder if that feels stupid or if that's the correct way to do that

#

or at least, there's no better way to do that

via code i patch into generate_card_ui just before the recursion loop at the end, that passes info_queue among other things into a mod function

are you creating ui elements directly

or using one of the balatro functions like create_something

no, i'm just adding { key = 'key', set = 'Other' } to the info queue

hi people

#

i'm trying to make some individual assets for my jokers

#

however, they look blurry, especially the 1x version (which you can see by disabling pixel art smoothing). I exported with GIMP, with compression set to 0

SuspiciousJoker.png FunnyJoker.png
#

why does that happen?
even discord renders them blurry. in GIMP they look sharp, since they're just pixels

#

these are the 2x versions, which i scaled down to get the previous ones

SuspiciousJoker.png FunnyJoker.png
# 
SMODS.Atlas{
    key = 'SuspiciousJoker',
    path = 'SuspiciousJoker.png',
    px = 71, 
    py = 95
}
SMODS.Atlas{
    key = 'FunnyJoker',
    path = 'FunnyJoker.png',
    px = 71, 
    py = 95
}

These are my atlases

#

if i start the game with pixel art smoothing disabled but with malverk enabled, they show fine anyways

#

@frosty dock i'm on latest DEV smods. can this be affecting how malverk works?

frosty dock
hushed stump
#

this would explain why vanilla jokers aren't blurred much and mine is, since my atlas has a lower resolution

wintry solar
#

Malverk shouldn’t touch any atlas stuff that isn’t run through its system either

hushed stump
#

@frosty dock i downgraded smods to 1501a, and that """fixed""" it

#

so i think it's an smods issue?

frosty dock
hushed stump
#

with malverk enabled, but downgrading smods fixed it

frosty dock
#

then it might be caused by a smods change but is still a malverk issue

hushed stump
#

the issue only happens when i have latest smods an malverk at the same time

hushed stump
#

should i, for the moment, make an sprite of the same res as vanilla jokers so at least they look in line with the game?

frosty dock
#

I don't see how that affects things

hushed stump
hushed stump
frosty dock
#

the difference is probably that vanilla sprites aren't loaded through SMODS.Atlas

hushed stump
frosty dock
#

Just speculating though, I'd have to look closer into this to say more

hushed stump
wintry solar
#

1501a still works with Malverk enabled?

hushed stump
wintry solar
#

That it did what you expect with the sprites

hushed stump
#

oh no, actually i'm wrong

#

i did a bit more of testing

#

1501a doesn't change anything

#

i also notice that it doesn't even apply pixel art smoothing ON sometimes

#

you can tell it's still 1x, specially cause the atlases inject insanely fast

hushed stump
#

it's definitely a malverk issue, but idk why

wary moth
#

is there a way to add lines to loc_txt.text during the game?

hushed stump

it might imply reloading tho

#

This depends on how SMODS handles it

how would you make a custom rank show different text

chat quick sanity check for an idea about interactions between two jokers

#

imagine two idols like jokers

#

one pick a card completely randomly, like idol does

#

the other goes through a predetermined sequence of card

#

would it be possible to make it so that if you have both of these jokers together, the random one stops being random and also starts going down the same sequence

#

and would you be able to make this effects the vanilla jokers, like idol, castle, etc

#

uh

#

how does one make blinds

lyric wadi

have you checked vanillaremade

slate turtle
#

..no?

#

i'll try

lyric wadi
#

👍

slate turtle
#

i'll probably add blinds based off ts

#

also i'll use my current jokerforge mod as the template

lyric wadi
#

oh

slate turtle
#

but the blinds i will add myself

lyric wadi
#

you're using jokerforge

#

uhhh then yea i have no answer for that

slate turtle
#

since jokerforge has no support for blinds

lyric wadi
#

you're just gotta start actually coding for those

slate turtle
#

i will

#

👍

lyric wadi
#

unfortunately or fortunately, whichever one applies

slate turtle
#

nvm found it

lyric wadi
#

oh ok

#

like if you need the basics of making something of a particular object type i would honestly just yoink one from here and modify it

slate turtle
#

do i make a new lua file for blinds

#

or do i just start from scratch

lyric wadi
#

technically everything in a mod can be in one file

#

but also it's going to be a pain to find things if your mod gets particularly big

slate turtle
#

ig i'm not using jokerforge anymore

lyric wadi
#

i would recommend start separating code files out earlier than later but it's not required

slate turtle
#

the main "mod" folder has separate folders for enhancements, seals n whatnot

#

do i just make a blind folder orrr

lyric wadi
#

anything you're comfortable with

#

because ideally it will be the structure you want to work with for the rest of the development

#

some people including me personally goes as far as making one file per one card so everything is fully modular but again there's upsides and downsides

slate turtle
#

what do you reccomend i use for editing .lua files

lyric wadi
#

i personally use vscode so i'd say vscodium

#

but generally any IDE would do

slate turtle
#

k

lyric wadi
#

really it is just a fancy text file that has a bit that tells your pc to read it as code

its going to be a bit weird working without jf

#

eh it's fine i can deal without removing the voucher

rapid stag
#

so if you have multiple jokers that have the same unlock condition, are they unlocked in the same order they're loaded?

i.e., you do ```lua
SMODS.Joker{ key = 'one', ... }
SMODS.Joker{ key = 'two', ... }

viscid talon
#

if i had to take a guess, i think the first joker that appears in a list is unlocked first

#

but i could be wrong

# 
-- Green Card
SMODS.Joker({
    key = "greencard",
    loc_txt = {
        ["name"] = "Green Card",
        ["text"] = {
            {
                "Create a {C:green}Sephirot{} card",
                "when {C:attention}Blind{} is skipped"
            }
        },
    },
    pos = { x = 5, y = 8 },
    cost = 9,
    rarity = 3,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    eternal_compat = true,
    perishable_compat = true,
    unlocked = true,
    discovered = false,
    atlas = "CustomJokers",

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.skip_blind and not context.blueprint then
            return {
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    func = function()
                        SMODS.add_card {
                            set = 'Sephirot',
                        }
                        G.GAME.consumeable_buffer = 0
                        return true
                    end
                }))}
        end
    end
})```
got an undefined ipairs error
#

nvm its a bad argument

#

i still dunno how to solve it

hushed stump
#

@frosty dock is unlock_condition undocumented? I see it commented on vanilla remade as being an equivalent for check_for_unlock function

teal grotto
#

it's what vanilla uses

#

that's all i know

hushed stump
#

okay, but how is it used? which arguments should be passed into it?
in my case, i only want the joker to be able to be purchased only if five of a kind is visible.
i'm already using SMODS.is_poker_hand_visible('Five of a Kind') but I can't do it for the entire SMODS.Joker function since the game hasn't been initialized yet

slim ferry
#

use in_pool

#

You should just be able to return that in there

hushed stump
#

what is in_pool, and how should it be used?

slim ferry
#

in_pool = function(self, args) in the joker

#

It returns true if the joker should be able to spawn

hushed stump
#

ah alr

hushed stump
slim ferry
#

It is

how can i make a blind destroy cards}

#

what is it anyway?

i assume you do it w/ context.destroy_card

yes i have seen tutorials?

it just takes me so long to actually figure out

#

how to do stuff

slate turtle

#

whats the intended effect here?

slim ferry
#

You can indeed do this

viscid talon
#

i have a boss blind that does smth similar

# 
-- The Axe
SMODS.Blind {
    key = "hatch_axe",
    dollars = 5,
    mult = 2,
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    boss = { min = 2 },
    boss_colour = HEX("b6315e"),
    atlas = 'CustomBlinds',

    loc_txt = {
        ['name'] = 'The Axe',
        ['text'] = {
            [1] = 'Destroy first played card',
            [2] = 'after every played hand',
        },
    },

    calculate = function(self, blind, context)
    if not blind.disabled then
        if context.destroy_card and context.destroy_card.should_destroy  then
            return { remove = true }
        end
        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play  then
            context.other_card.should_destroy = false
            if context.other_card == context.scoring_hand[1] then
                context.other_card.should_destroy = true
                return {
                    message = "Destroyed!"
                }
            end
        end
    end
end
}```
#

this may help

slim ferry
#

Blinds have access to most contexts

#

This is lowkey kinda janky of a solution

#

Because you can just check if its the first in the destroy_card check

#

Rather than setting a flag

viscid talon
#

ig but it works

#

a nyways i still need help figuring out the error with green card

rigid solar
#

How would I got about adding a tooltip about a deck? I tried info_queue[#info_queue+1] = {type = "descriptions", set = "Back", key = "b_tboj_judas", vars = {"+1","-1"}} but it doesn't show the description, just the name

image.png
slim ferry
#

try G.P_CENTERS.b_tboj_judas instead maybe

#

Instead of that whole table

rigid solar
#

yeah but what about the variables

slim ferry
#

Doing it via the center will actually call the center's loc_vars for this

#

Thats like the whole point of using the center

rigid solar
#

oh ok

#

lol ok thanks

slate turtle
#

question

#

is there a context for a hand played

frosty rampart
#

that's a very broad description
you can use context.before, which is when space joker triggers
if you want to do any scoring, you should use context.initial_scoring_step, which is immediately after space joker triggers
or you can use context.press_play, which is the instant you click the play button

slate turtle
#

what i was referring to

#

is a context that has the cards played

frosty rampart
slate turtle
#

thx

silk latch
frosty rampart
#

your for loops should use G.jokers.cards and G.hand.cards, not just G.jokers and G.hand

#

both of the for loops are just entirely getting skipped over

viscid talon
#

need a fresh pair of eyes

#

in response to this code

#

im unsure what i did wrong here

all the others seem to be fine

omg, thanks for answering.

wintry solar
rigid solar
#

sure

#

it just felt weird to me because as far as i knew _mod keys were to replace the message with whatever you want your message to be, didn't think it'd ignore the colour

#

ig it took blue instead of red because mult happens before chips and chips override the mult's red?

#

the weird thing was when i added remove_default_message and it still didn't work with _mod lol

#

but eh whatev, i found the thing that works that's all i care about lul

#

Wait no nvm I am getting myself confused you are correct

#

I have no idea why it’s blue lol

Oh I know what it is

#

The function that actually displays messages adds colours and sounds based on certain keys being present

rigid solar

and completely ignores the "colour" key? 😭

Basically, don’t use the mod keys they are stupid

newWeapon = SMODS.Consumable:extend{

this allows you to call newWeapon like you would SMODS.Consumable but with the set new default parameters

you can also add a cost and other stuff you want to be consistent across all the consumables

if its an attribute you forgot card.ability.extra. in the SMODS.get_proability_vars

how possible is it to like. give a certain rarity of cards a shader
i know nothing about shaders so i might not go this route but

wintry solar
#

very possible

median veldt
#

how Easy

wintry solar
#

you just need a custom drawstep that checks for the rarity of the card and then draws the shader

#

you could copy the edition drawstep and change a few things around very simply

median veldt

i see

#

i might not do that purely because i have zero idea how to create a shader

actually, follow up to this -

with modify_rank, if i want something to move one rank at a time towards a specific rank, i can lay out the ids 2 to 14 - and check both the id's value and half-2 if the amount should go down rather than up

but how do i quantify that with suits, while potentially accounting for modded suits? how do i find the shortest direction from suit A to suit B?

rapid stag
#

well i is your first loop's iterating value and i2 is your second loop's. is that intentional for your effect or

silk latch
#

Yeah, because I'm specifically looking for Jokers without an Edition

gilded blaze
#

you're using i instead of i2 for the second loop

silk latch
#

Ah,

rapid stag
# silk latch new crash just dropped

if i'm reading this correctly,
(5) Lua field 'func' at file 'src/mannpower/PowerPlay.lua:33' (from mod with id mannpower)
which if i'm reading your code right, should be local editionless_cards = SMODS.Edition:get_edition_cards(G.hand, true)
...which doesn't make sense to me as i don't get why card_area would be nil in that case

gilded blaze
#

wait

#

huh

#

why are you using 2 loops in the first place

silk latch
#

To find the (jokers/cards in hand) first and then go through specifically those without an Edition

rapid stag
#

that's not what that's doing, though
you're just looking for all editionless jokers and cards in hand as many times as there are total jokers and total cards in hand respectively

#

the loop reads as "first joker. let's look for all editionless jokers and give them the edition. done. second joker. let's look for all editionless jokers and give them the edition. done. third joker..."

#

i don't know the exact effect you want for this consumable, but based on the code you've shown, don't you want something more like

use = function(self, card, area, copier)
        for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
            if not G.jokers.cards[i].edition then

you could add them to G.GAME.banned_keys

Im trying to make a joker that when you sell it, the joker to its right scores a +30 chip bonus every hand kinda like the foil edition, I think there is something wrong with the hook because i cannot get it to score the bonus but i can see that the chip bonus variable gets stored in the target joker

#

calculate_joker is a method of the Card class, SMODS has nothing to do with it

#

also the hook is far from being correct in the first place

how should i do it or what resources should i take a look at, first time doing hooks

SMODS.Joker{

            -- get target joker
            local other_joker = nil
            for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
                if G.jokers.cards[i] == card then
                    other_joker = G.jokers.cards[i + 1]
                    break
                end
            end
            -- nil check in case this joker is sold while at rightmost
            if other_joker then
                -- use a unique key here, extra is not recommended as for some vanilla jokers this is a number, not a table
                other_joker.ability.soy_chips = (other_joker.ability.soy_chips or 0) + card.ability.extra.chips_add
            end
        end
    end,
}

local calculate_joker_ref = Card.calculate_joker
function Card:calculate_joker(context)
    local o, t = calculate_joker_ref(self, context)
    if context.joker_main and self.ability.soy_chips then
        o = SMODS.merge_effects{o or {}, {chips = self.ability.soy_chips}}
    end
    return o, t
end
#

when doing hooks, be careful about the return values as you may discard all values starting from the second one onwards
e.g. Card.calculate_joker returns 2 values

hearty lagoon
#

omg, thank you so much

#

this is just the backend tho

#

it's recommended that you add a tooltip to the joker that gained chips

i'm mainly just confused because like
there's no defined "order" for suits

primal robin
rigid solar
#

when you sort your hand by suit it's always the same order

frosty dock
#

suit order in vanilla code actually is inconsistent

rigid solar
#

😭

frosty dock
#

it's reverse order in RNG or whatever

rapid stag
#

when using debugplus with vanilla suits, when you go "right" one rank through the full lot, it's always hearts -> diamonds -> spades -> clubs

#

or is it "left"

#

either way, the principle's still the same

primal robin
#

In hand diamonds always last

median veldt
#

is there like. something i can crossreference to make a drawstep that draws a shader over every joker of a specific rarity

frosty dock
#

"cycling" suits inherently doesn't make much sense

frosty rampart
#

agreed

rapid stag
#

well the deck also displays an order for suits. from top to bottom, it always seems to be hearts, clubs, diamonds, spades

primal robin
frosty rampart
#

especially when you add modded suits to the mix (what if the modded suit isn't in the pool? what if it's supposed to be a rare suit, like optics in oblivion? what about that one mod that adds mixed suits?)

primal robin
#

Suit have nominal which used for sorting

rapid stag
#

hmmm

frosty rampart
#

and even if there was a consistent ordering internally, i'd still be against "cycling" suits in-game
that's just not how it works in vanilla, whenever you change a card's suit you're just directly assigning it

#

it's not intuitive to players or to coders imo

primal robin
#

assuming mod have seals on jokers, well, does it matter that much?

frosty rampart
#

huh

frosty dock
#

it's still not something I'd want to encourage

primal robin
#

hm, maybe

#

btw did you seen my recent development towards ui thing?

#

I managed to make it work with Object:extend() and it extends properly

#

Not in cleanest way but whatever

#

haven't looked at it but that sounds cool
