Now time for pain: pokermon, which loads billion years because of huge atlases

Oh my gosh, pokermon moment

We're hooking instances and not classes once again

[red flower]

pokermon is a cryptid-like

[dawn knoll]

does SMODS.gradient work for primary color in consumable type?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[crimson dune]

How should I shuffle played cards on play? I am currently trying to add a detrimental card effect for my mod that does an amber acorn effect on played cards
When I tried to do something like this: for context.before or context.press_play doesnt work becasue G.play.cards apparently isnt a proper cardarea before then
I tried adding my own context to shuffle the held area before playing cards, but apparently highlighted cards simply like resort themselves in the original arranged order before being played

Here's part of my code

if card.area == G.hand and context.on_select_play and card.facing ~= 'back' then
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    func = function()
                        if #G.jokers.cards > 0 then
                            print("suffle")
                            G.jokers:shuffle('NUTTY'); play_sound('cardSlide1', 0.85); return true
                        end
                        if #G.hand.cards > 0 then
                            print("suffle2")
                            G.hand:shuffle('NUTTY2'); play_sound('cardSlide1', 0.85); return true
                        end
                        G.hand:hard_set_T()
                    end
                }))
                 delay(0.1)

[dawn knoll]

i keep getting an error code saying there's no primary color for the consumable type

[daring fern]

It should be SMODS.Gradients.modprefix_gradientkey

[dawn knoll]

ohhhhhhhhhhhh

it says the 'Uber' is a nil value

uber is my mod prefix

oh

i used a period instead of an underscore

[dawn knoll]

i fixed it, but it still says its missing primary_colour

nvm

i was missing an s

[red flower]

did you try press_play and rearranging G.hand.highlighted

without events

[crimson dune]

I just realised that it was due to the premature return statements I made in the code from copying it from paperback's ouya board without moving the return statements
this works better now

if card.area == G.hand and context.press_play and card.facing ~= 'back' then
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    func = function()
                        if #G.jokers.cards > 0 then
                            print("suffle")
                            G.jokers:shuffle('NUTTY'); play_sound('cardSlide1', 0.85)
                        end
                        if #G.hand.cards > 0 then
                            print("suffle2")
                            G.hand:shuffle('NUTTY2'); play_sound('cardSlide1', 0.85)
                        end
                        if #G.play.cards > 0 then
                            print("suffle2")
                            G.play:shuffle('NUTTY3'); play_sound('cardSlide1', 0.85)
                        end
                        return true
                    end
                }))

[glossy dagger]

someone knows if there is a way to make a joker search in your deck and select a random enhancement from it?

something like idol, but for enhancements

[red flower]

you would need to manually iterate through the cards to find the enhancements and then pick one

[glossy dagger]

there is a G. or variable for enhancements?

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#how-do-i-get-if-a-card-has-a-specific-editionenhancementsealsticker

[primal robin]

I think I'm cooking

[red flower]

it does say there that to get an enhancement you use SMODS.get_enhancements but I do recommend in your case to not care about quantum enhancements and just use [playing card].config.center_key

[timid zinc]

is there a way to visually delay debuff showing on jokers? i have it in context.after and it shows as soon as you play a hand

[red flower]

you would need to hook/patch the debuff drawstep

someone else asked for that the other day i can see if i can add it as a feature tomorrow

wait if it's in context.after you can just use an event

[brazen rock]

how do i make a joker pool?
cant figure it out after trying for a little bit

my game keeps crashing because my jokers are trying to be put into an empty pool..?

nvm figured it out

[hard kayak]

For the love of god do not use quantum enhancements

[hard kayak]

Man I should learn UI stuff

I would like some tips on making a UI, for something like run info

Does Vanilla remade remaking creating the UIs?

That might be very useful actually

[fading rivet]

no, but you can look into smods and balatro to see the UI code

smods adds additional features but uses the same methods of making g ui

[hard kayak]

I see

[queen crescent]

wait how do you set a custom sell price

[daring fern]

You would have to hook Card:set_sell_value

[hard kayak]

You set the buy price to twice the value you want, or that

[queen crescent]

what if i want it to be negative

[hard kayak]

Twice the negative value?

[queen crescent]

no, set it to a specific value (incl. a negative value so it wont default to 1)

[hard kayak]

I didn't know you can just directly hook the sell price

[queen crescent]

this will default to 1 (sell price)

[hard kayak]

Well I think the hook thing said above might work instead

I think cryptid uses that hook

[queen crescent]

well i just added the hook

im so silly

-# forgot to add a - at the start but its there now

[amber turret]

Can someone please help? I'm trying to add two new ranks, 1's and 0's... its displaying as ERROR however.

just fixed the problem where one didnt use a sprite by just subtracting 1 from the xpos but

why is it displaying as error?

uhhhh

tried playing a straight using a 0, Ace, 2, 3, and 4 and this happened.

i give up on this

adding new ranks is too hard

[fading rivet]

How can I overlay UI akin to the skipped text in the blind UI

[red flower]

it's a uibox added as a child of the ui

[hard kayak]

I have not a clue where the smods stuff is for the UI

[red flower]

what are you looking for

[hard kayak]

Making another tab for run info

[red flower]

that's in G.UIDEF.run_info in the vanilla code

[tidal hemlock]

i want to do the flip animation that the enhance/convert tarots do, during context.other_card, but all the things i found were for highlighted cards

[fading rivet]

highlighted cards are still cards

you can do the same with context.other_card

[tidal hemlock]

G.hand.highlighted[i]:flip()

do you just replace highlighted[i] with other

[hard kayak]

Do I need a lovely patch for this?

[fading rivet]

context.other_card:flip()

[fading rivet]

yes

whats the thing to get rid of the card limit display in card areas again

[hard kayak]

I have not done a lovely patch before so it would be nice to see how to make one

[tidal hemlock]

currently hating lua rn, i keep forgetting the commas

[hard kayak]

More of a mild inconvenience

Since it typically tells you where you need to add something

[red flower]

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

[hard kayak]

I see

[fading rivet]

nvm I got it

[silk latch]

How would I get specifically the first 3 cards drawn?

And how would I keep them from being played or discarded?

[amber turret]

So, I'm trying to add new blinds, and currently I got "The 1", "The 10", "The 20", and "The 100", (The numerals of the Phoenician alphabet for the symbols on it) but I don't really know what to do for its functionality.

i got The 1 being debuffing all even cards and The 10 debuffing all odd cards tho

actually... what if i tried to make it more easier by just making them face down instead of a debuff

[silent sail]

what causes this in booster packs?

[queen meadow]

lack of localization on the booster packs

[frosty dock]

not having a valid group_name or group_key

[silent sail]

SMODS.Booster {
    key = "stellar_normal_1",

    loc_txt = {
        name = "Stellar Pack",

        text = {
            [1] = 'Choose {C:attention}#1#{} of',
            [2] = '{C:attention}#2#{} {C:tarot}Astrological{} cards'
        },

        group_name = "Stellar Pack"
    },

would this not be valid?

its identical to my other packs but with different names

[polar flint]

what is this asking for?

[primal robin]

install mod called Spectrallib

[queen meadow]

idk i just did this on the localization lua

sevendea_boosters being the group key

[primal robin]

Maybe this message should be rephrased so non-programmers can understand

[frosty dock]

looks fine unless you also have a group_key

[silent sail]

issue is i'm using the group key for a joker

[slim ferry]

group key is only for localization

what would you even be using that for

[silent sail]

for an astronmer style card, i setting it so anything with the key wasw $0

[frosty dock]

that's not controlled by group_key

at least it shouldn't be

you should use kind for that

[silent sail]

ah i can just change it its fine

everything is fixde this is so awesome

[amber turret]

i dont know what to do for functionallity

[distant junco]

weird thing ive noticed, when i set a variable using pseudorandom_element(G.handlist, 'SEED') its fine, but if its printed it has a number after like Flush 11 and i think its causing issues when i use it like SMODS.upgrade_poker_hands({hands = {pseudorandom_element(G.handlist, 'SEED')}, level_up = 1, from = card})

because ive been doing that and its been crashing

and im pretty sure it wasnt doing that before

[rigid solar]

Pseudorandom element returns the result and the result's key in that array

So you have to store it in a variable and then you can use it in your function, if you want to avoid issues

[frosty dock]

you can do select(1, pseudorandom_element(...))

[distant junco]

Awesome, thanks!

[frosty dock]

putting the result of a function call directly into a table unpacks it to use all results

[distant junco]

Ohh that makes sense

[frosty dock]

though iirc you can also just do hands = ... without the table

[dusk stream]

im currently trying to make a blind that destroys cards in deck after 5 seconds, but im not sure how to get it to do that
i assume it's something with SMODS.destroy_cards(card) but i dont know if that affects all cards including cards in hand

    key = "blackhole",
    loc_txt = {
        name = "Black Hole",
        text = {"Slowly destroys all cards in deck"}
    },
    dollars = 5,
    mult = 5,
    atlas = 'bwaaablind',
    pos = {x = 0, y = 4}, -- change later
    boss = {min = 2, max = 6}, -- change later
    boss_colour = HEX("f600ff") -- change later
    set_blind = function(self)
        SMODS.destroy_cards(card)
}

i also don't know how to get psuedorandomized things (ex: a 1/5 chance to do bwaaa or bwuhhh)

[wanton jolt]

if you want it to affect all cards you might want to go through every cardarea containing cards and add them to the list

and then pick a random card from that table

and destroy it

local list = { }
local areas = { } -- list your areas in there
--loop areas
  --loop every card in areas.cards
  list[#list+1] = the_card_you_want_to_add
  --end loop every card
--end loop aread
local random_card = pseudorandom_element(list, "modprefix_seed".. G.GAME.round_resets.ante)
SMODS.destroy_cards(random_card,nil,nil,nil) -- change the first nil to true if you want it to remove eternals

[dusk stream]

you can make playing cards eternal?

or is that for jokers

[wanton jolt]

any

its a sticker

[dusk stream]

ah

where would i be able to find a list of all areas?

nvm

[wanton jolt]

you can use G.playing_cards but remember this not an area and therefore does not have a .cards table in it, you have to list through it directly

so you can like loop through G.jokers.cards, G.consumeables.cards and G.playing_cards

[dusk stream]

what does the_card_you_want_to_add do

[glass crown]

sorry for late reply, but is there any rough idea of when this will be being released?

[red flower]

nope

from me at least

[wanton jolt]

its the current card when you're looping through

for example

  for _, playing_card in G.playing_cards do -- For each card in the scoring hand
    list[#list+1] = playing_card
  end

[dusk stream]

ah

[wanton jolt]

local list = {}
local areas = {G.playing_cards, G.jokers.cards, G.consumeables.cards } -- list your areas in there
if #list >= 1 then
  for _, area in areas do
    for _a, _card in area do -- For each card in the scoring hand
      list[#list+1] = _card
    end
  end
end
local random_card = pseudorandom_element(list, "modprefix_seed".. G.GAME.round_resets.ante)
SMODS.destroy_cards(random_card,nil,nil,nil)

i think this should be the code

[viscid talon]

how do i have it so that all cards in the first hand change their ability to m_hatch_salt

im guessing the assert is wrong

[wanton jolt]

in first hand played or first hand drawn

[viscid talon]

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main and G.GAME.current_round.hands_played == 0  then
            for i = 1, #context.full_hand do
                local percent = 1.15 - (i - 0.999) / (#G.hand.cards - 0.998) * 0.3
                local target = context.full_hand[i]
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    trigger = "after",
                    delay = 0.15,
                    func = function()
                        target:flip()
                        play_sound("card1", percent)
                        target:juice_up(0.3, 0.3)
                        return true
                    end,
                }))
            end
            for i = 1, #context.full_hand do
                local target = context.full_hand[i]
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    func = function()
                        assert(card:set_ability("m_hatch_salt"))
                        return true
                    end,
                }))
            end
            for i = 1, #context.full_hand do
                local percent = 1.15 - (i - 0.999) / (#G.hand.cards - 0.998) * 0.3
                local target = context.full_hand[i]
                G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    trigger = "after",
                    delay = 0.15,
                    func = function()
                        target:flip()
                        play_sound("card1", percent)
                        target:juice_up(0.3, 0.3)
                        return true
                    end,
                }))
            end
        end

[viscid talon]

no i mean like

how do i make every single card played the salt enhancement

[wanton jolt]

i think you dont have to assert for this

also it should be target:set_ability("m_hatch_salt")

[dawn knoll]

can someone help me make a planet card?

[viscid talon]

gotcha

[amber turret]

how would i make a blind that debuffs all cards that have a rank lower than the lowest ranked card in the last played hand?

nevermind, that would probally be too complicated for me to code.

[long sun]

how do i check if a round is being played?

[tranquil cypress]

G.GAME.blind.in_blind is true when you're in a blind

[long sun]

thanks ^^

[wanton jolt]

did it work

[viscid talon]

i havent tested it yet sorry

[distant junco]

Thst would not be that difficult at all!

Im sure you could figure it out

[glass crown]

whats the best way to get the ante number? making a joker that only appears ante 2 and before

[dusk stream]

not sure if i have to continue building up on it but

    key = "blackhole",
    loc_txt = {
        name = "Black Hole",
        text = {"Slowly destroys all cards in deck"}
    },
    dollars = 5,
    mult = 5,
    atlas = 'bwaaablind',
    pos = {x = 0, y = 4}, -- change later
    boss = {min = 2, max = 6}, -- change later
    boss_colour = HEX("f600ff"), -- change later
    set_blind = function(self)
        local list = {}
        local area = {
            G.deck,
            G.hand
        }
        if #list >= 1 then
        for _, area in areas do
            for _a, _card in area do -- For each card in the scoring hand
            list[#list+1] = _card
            end
        end
        end
        local random_card = pseudorandom_element(list, "bwaaa_seed".. G.GAME.round_resets.ante)
        SMODS.destroy_cards(random_card, nil, nil, nil)
    end
}

[distant junco]

G.GAME.round_resets.ante

[amber turret]

oh. I already gave it a different function already.

[distant junco]

fair enough

[wanton jolt]

your listed areas dont have cards in them

[viscid talon]

yeaa it works c:

[wanton jolt]

you need to go through G.deck.cards or G.hand.cards

but you can simply go through G.playing_cards, its a list of the full deck@dusk stream

code would be

SMODS.Blind {
    key = "blackhole",
    loc_txt = {
        name = "Black Hole",
        text = {"Slowly destroys all cards in deck"}
    },
    dollars = 5,
    mult = 5,
    atlas = 'bwaaablind',
    pos = {x = 0, y = 4}, -- change later
    boss = {min = 2, max = 6}, -- change later
    boss_colour = HEX("f600ff"), -- change later
    set_blind = function(self)

        local random_card = pseudorandom_element(G.playing_cards, "bwaaa_seed".. G.GAME.round_resets.ante)
        SMODS.destroy_cards(random_card, nil, nil, nil)
    end
}

and you wouldnt need to list every card in every area

since you only delete playing cards

i gave you the double loop incase you wanted to delete jokers too

but the code how it is right now would destroy one single card when you set the blind

[weak grove]

wait what lua interpeter should i use?

[slim ferry]

you do not use an interpeter, testing is done ingame

[weak grove]

?

[slim ferry]

what is there to explain?

you dont need something to run code when the game already does so

[weak grove]

well whats this?

[slim ferry]

?

whats what

[weak grove]

srry

is that in notepad?

[slim ferry]

thats just discord code block

[iron oxide]

the formatting is done thru grave accents

[slim ferry]

i assume you mean an editor and not an interpeter

[iron oxide]

it’s just showing how the Code Is

[slim ferry]

which is up to preference

[iron oxide]

many ppl use vscode for Editing tho

[weak grove]

i meant editor lol

?

[slim ferry]

but probably dont use base notepad at least

[iron oxide]

-# myself included

[slim ferry]

vscode is what most people use

[red flower]

if only there was a resource that answered these kinds of questions..

[fading rivet]

if only...

[slim ferry]

yeah that would be crazy

[weak grove]

?????

[iron oxide]

like some king of modding-resources…

[weak grove]

im asking a question

please dont make fun of me

[red flower]

https://github.nh6574.com/vanillaremade/wiki

[weak grove]

im kinda new to modding

[iron oxide]

i wasn’t trying to mb but there is a lot of info about it there

both in the above link and the respective forum

[fading rivet]

a single Google search or quick look into modding resources should answer most qeustions

[iron oxide]

at least in regards to the simpler starting questions anyway I’d think

idk

🤔

but ya VSCode is definitely the recommended starting editor for that

[fading rivet]

where could I find the code that makes all the scoring animations happen faster

I need to make it not accelerate while a specific event is occueing

[wanton jolt]

yea i uploaded notepad into discord

but i use both n++ and vscode

[versed swan]

Is there a context for when a rental sticker deducts money?

[wanton jolt]

do which ever fits you best

[wanton jolt]

context.money_altered -- flag to identify this context, always TRUE
context.amount -- the amount that money has changed by
context.from_shop -- true if the money changed while in the shop
context.from_tarot -- true if the money changed from using a consumeable
context.from_scoring -- true if the money changed while scoring

i dont think so

[fading rivet]

thetes context.money_altered

[wanton jolt]

you could track the amount though

[fading rivet]

hmm there's no way from that to figurenit out

[wanton jolt]

i think if you do if context.money_altered and context.amount == -1

[fading rivet]

you'll need to modify the rental stick to give a custom context

[versed swan]

yeah I considered money_altered but I don't think it can exclusively regard rental

[fading rivet]

its -3

[wanton jolt]

right

[fading rivet]

and that would also consider purchasing jimbo

[wanton jolt]

then do and context.from_shop == false

[fading rivet]

that should work for pure vanilla, but any extra mods may break it

[wanton jolt]

i dont see how

unless they change the rental mod

[versed swan]

I'll play it safe and just patch rental

[fading rivet]

if a mod adds an enhancement that takes $3

oh wait, ox and wraith would break

if you have 3 dollars

[wanton jolt]

wait

rental doesnt remove the dollars during scoring

right

so i think if you set everything else to false you'd be good

[fading rivet]

its better to make your own custom context

[wanton jolt]

yeah

[fading rivet]

bump

oh wait I figured it out

wait maybe not

[glass crown]

whats the best way to make packs bigger / have more choices? of a specific type too?

[red flower]

idk about specific types https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/0827#new-modifiers

[slim ferry]

for specific types you could probably look at cardsleeves

[fading rivet]

G.GAME.round_resets.booster_pack_choices or something similar is a thing

nvm its G.GAME.modifiers.booster_size_mod

therss another one for choices

[red flower]

that's what i linked 💔

[glass crown]

what would be the best way to go about doubling the levels you recieve from level ups?

[red flower]

hooking level_up_hand probably

[viscid talon]

quick question does other_card.ability.perma_bonus also apply to xchips

[frosty dock]

perma xchips is perma_x_chips

[viscid talon]

thank you

i fucking love divine hiker

[brazen rock]

how would i make a seal grant a spectral card when it is played and scores?

i've got the function and stuff for it
i just dont know how to make it choose a random spectral card

[red flower]

SMODS.add_card { set = "Spectral" }

[brazen rock]

thanks

@faint yacht @fading rivet

[amber turret]

does anyone know how to make a blind only appear on ante 0?

[wintry solar]

you can mess around with in_pool currently, soon the max value of your blind definition will be functional though so it's probably easier to wait for that

[amber turret]

oh

my idea was a way to get to ante -1 without voucher shenanigans, a blind that when defeated would instead take you back an ante, and maybe it has a chance of appearing on ante 1, and guaranteed on ante 0.

[fading rivet]

check aikoshen

[viscid talon]

lore accurate you are an idiot

[wanton jolt]

check aikoyori's shenanigans and its "forgotten blinds"

[silk latch]

Bump

[wanton jolt]

in what context

on the first ever hand drawn?

[fading rivet]

likely need to hook one of the draw_cards

wait

context.stay_flipped with to_area being G.hand

first 3 calls

[amber turret]

does anyone know why this isnt working? It's only debuffing the Diamond suit...

[weak grove]

hey whats the varible for the base blind size?

[wanton jolt]

1

[slim ferry]

youre defining the same suit field three times, which overrides the previous each time

[weak grove]

The NAME?

[slim ferry]

to debuff multiple suits you should use i think the debuff_card function

and check if its not clubs

[wanton jolt]

mult

[slim ferry]

base for each ante is calculated in get_blind_amount, it doesnt get stored

and the multiplier is G.GAME.starting_params.ante_scaling which is used by plasma

[weak grove]

in a string of code how do i update it?

[amber turret]

how would i go about doing this?

[fading rivet]

update what

[wanton jolt]

update how and when

[fading rivet]

update who

[wanton jolt]

blind galore coming soon?

[weak grove]

probs not...

[slim ferry]

recalc_debuff = function(self, card, from_blind)
    if card.area ~= G.jokers and card.is_suit and not card:is_suit("Clubs") then return true end
end,

[wanton jolt]

why are you replying to my joke and not my actual question

[fading rivet]

sob

[weak grove]

but i want it to be:
ante 1: 1
ante 2: 2
ante 3: 4

[fading rivet]

what

\😭

[slim ferry]

what

[weak grove]

WRONG REPLY

[wanton jolt]

\😭

[slim ferry]

1 what 2 what 4 what

multiplier?

[slim ferry]

if so just double this every ante

[weak grove]

but i want it to be:
ante 1: 1
ante 2: 2
ante 3: 4

[slim ferry]

ONE WHAT

[fading rivet]

do you mean round?

[wanton jolt]

i think its the ante scaling

[fading rivet]

not ante

[slim ferry]

1 blind size? multiplier?

i dont understand the goal

[fading rivet]

if so this is hard coded into the blinds themselves iirc

[slim ferry]

i

i

[fading rivet]

you'd have to take ownership of them

[wanton jolt]

i think he wants to do return {xblindsize = (9+10)} and it should do x21

[slim ferry]

i gave the damn answer to the ante multiplier

[weak grove]

ante 1: 1X base blind size, ante 2: 2X blind size, ante 3: 4X blind size.

[slim ferry]

so

thats what i said

[slim ferry]

^^^^^

[weak grove]

oh wait so i can change starting_parems mid run?

[slim ferry]

yeah

its called starting_params but a lot is used outside of run start

[weak grove]

🤦

[slim ferry]

blame thunk

[fading rivet]

you can change anything almost anywhere

all that matters is that its reflected correctly

[wanton jolt]

it makes sens for it to be in starting params since you kinda want to reset it every new run

[slim ferry]

well

eh

[fading rivet]

you would expect it to be stored somewhere else though

[wanton jolt]

it shouldve been called something else though

[weak grove]

wym?

[slim ferry]

well editing most starting params doesnt actually do anything because theyre used to set another value

[fading rivet]

if I change the object a scrollbar is connected too I also have to change like 5 other variables to get it work again

[slim ferry]

tf you talking about bruh 😭

[wanton jolt]

ui slop

[slim ferry]

ui is just propaganda for big html

[fading rivet]

ui gem

[slim ferry]

and nested tables

[wanton jolt]

ui slop no double down

[fading rivet]

buttons are pain

[wanton jolt]

paingas

[fading rivet]

i am not dynamically adding buttons

[weak grove]

so basicly
game.starting_parems.ante_scaling = 2^game.round_resets.ante

?

but how do i update that every ante change?

[fading rivet]

context check

[weak grove]

how?

[slim ferry]

context. uhhh i forget

its like

ante something

context.ante_change

[weak grove]

ante_change

How to put it in a deck?

[slim ferry]

use calculate

works the same as any other object

[weak grove]

How to use calculate correctly?

Hello, everyone! I am new to Balatro and hoping to learn how to make a mod version of Balatro for my partner’s birthday:) Could folks point me to what you think is worthwhile tutorials for beginners? I’m hoping illustrate myself too- Is that something I can do too? 😊

[red flower]

I'd recommend checking out https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1456643778336129127 and https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1486847115127947374

[carmine valley]

Thank you so much!

[brazen rock]

how do i make spritesheets for things like seals?
aseprite is kinda annoying to do it with, its just overlapping the frames and causes this

[silk latch]

What

[weak grove]

??????/

[young wigeon]

ello, I am trying to make a bot that can play balatro(earlier when I mentioned it here, there was some discussion about rule 9, but it seemed like the general understanding was that it was specificaly for generative ai, but if it is a problem, if you are a mod, please ping me, and I will take down all my posts about it). Has anyone made a mod that would allow a script to play the game that I could latch into, if not that would be my next steps, I know that typist is a thing which has keyboard inputs for all actions which I would probably be a base, but if some other framework would work better, that would be great to know.

[daring fern]

https://github.com/coder/balatrobot ?

[young wigeon]

TY!

250 lines of joker code, 12 ui functions, 1 patch, and 6 hooks

had to make my own state event system within the joker

[amber turret]

is there something im doing wrong in here? Maybe its the max but i added kraM ehT and now I tried rerolling and the game crashed

[fading rivet]

how is it crashing

[fading rivet]

replace talisman with amulet, but thast not the source of uour crash

[amber turret]

k

not sure if the error log changed or not

[amber turret]

oh

i think the problem was just me loading in from something on a low ante

just incase, i replaced the max one with a minimum of -69420 because, nice.

[glass scaffold]

It's just straight up not debuffing anything. I've tried using the return debuff and the SMODS:debuff_card along with some combinations of context checks

[cinder elk]

always remember mod makers

just because your mod’s joker “copies” the effect of a joker of a different mod, it’s ok!

with how many mods there are it’s difficult to be “original”, so go crazy

[radiant bronze]

is there a way to change a played poker hand into a different one

like Straight to Straight Flush

like before scoring

[frosty rampart]

during context.evaluate_poker_hand, if context.scoring_name is "Straight", then return replace_scoring_name = "Straight Flush"

[radiant bronze]

alr thanks

[glass scaffold]

[silk latch]

And how would I add something to the list of contained Poker Hands?

[frosty rampart]

it's that "advanced use" mentioned in the screenshot

[silk latch]

So would I not be able to just table.insert(context.poker_hands, "Hand Name")?

[daring fern]

No, it would be context.poker_hands['handkey'] = {hand}

[fading rivet]

@jagged gulch why did you add a comma 😭

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

use this

[jagged gulch]

Because every single other time if there isn't a comma it breaks

[fading rivet]

have you taken any time to learn lua syntax?

[jagged gulch]

Yes but my memory is shit

[fading rivet]

ah okay

[jagged gulch]

I know commas are how you sperarte code but I think that was sperate code since it looked line a line

[silk latch]

so, to make every hand contain, say, a flush, it would be

local handlist = {}
handlist = context.poker_hands
table.insert(context.poker_hands, "Flush")
return{replace_poker_hands = handlist}
```?

[fading rivet]

quick refresher
tables are like

{
-- list like tables
item1, item2,
item3, item4, item5,
item6,
item7,
-- keyed tables
loc_vars = function()-- the function is NOT done don't use a comma
  line_of_code_1 -- still not done
  if true then -- still no
    return true -- nope
  end -- almost there
end, -- now its done
other_key = 2
}

[fading rivet]

its a keyed table just use table["Flush"] 😭

[silk latch]

no like to add it

[fading rivet]

yes

its a keyed table

use table["Flush"]

or if flush is constant table.Flush

[daring fern]

No, it would be context.poker_hands['Flush'] = {context.scoring_hand}

[silk latch]

so a pair is considered a flush with a pair (while still scoring as a pair normally) and not just a flush with nothing else

[fading rivet]

oh yeah that too

i don't know about scoring but yes it will be considered to contain a flush

[jagged gulch]

Why isn't it working

[gilded blaze]

is xmpl your mod prefix

then Idk what's wrong here
the indent is a bit annoying, but nothing else is bad

[jagged gulch]

Oops

Forgot that was the tutorials mod prefix

[gilded blaze]

lmao

[sturdy compass]

lol

[jagged gulch]

xmpl sounds like a actual file extension to be fair

[sturdy compass]

"xmpl" was meant to sound like "example"

[jagged gulch]

I know

[sturdy compass]

.example files

[jagged gulch]

It's just that it also sounds like .xml a actual file extension

[twin fiber]

i've recently started developing a mod (following https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Your-First-Mod and https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/blob/main/src/jokers.lua), mostly going well so far, but for some inexplicable reason, jokers (even vanilla, as pictured) are appearing in duplicates, as if showman was applied. it happens on multiple decks and i'm absolutely dumbfounded. has anyone encountered anything like this before?

[sly finch]

Out of coincidence, does someone have the spritesheet of a Boss Blind?

[iron oxide]

#1224362333208444989 message

smth like this or?

like the vanilla spritesheet/etc

[sly finch]

Oh! ye yeye, thx!

[iron oxide]

-# np! :3

[tulip pecan]

how do I get the key of the current poker hand being played? everything I've found either gives me the Localized name of the hand or every hand that it contains, and I only want the key.

[daring fern]

context.scoring_name

[tulip pecan]

okay next question, how can I tell if the hand played is a hidden hand type? trying G.GAME.hands[context.scoring_name].visible always returns true because once you play the hidden hand type it shows up

would I have to scan all the poker hands at the beginning of the game and save that visible status to reference later?

[daring fern]

Yes.

[sturdy compass]

Do you have any other mods active? What have you personally added?

[twin fiber]

the only other mod i had added was handy. at the time, i had only implemented two jokers (attached). i have a custom in_pool function on one of them, which i thought might've been the source of my woes, but i cannot conceive of how

(there's a helper function there to manage my mod id for me)

[sturdy compass]

Have you considered using SMODS.find_card instead of doing a loop check?

It wouldn't solve your pool problem but it is more optimal

[twin fiber]

thanks for the heads up! i was not aware of that, ty :3

[sturdy compass]

no prob

What else have you done in your mod? I'm assuming it's more than just these joker inits

[twin fiber]

at the time i first noticed the issue, it was just those two jokers and the config files

i feel like i must have done something wrong with config somehow somewhere cuz it manifested so early

[sturdy compass]

None of these files were present?

[twin fiber]

util was, rest not

-- debugging function
function print_keys(tab)
    local keyset = {}
    local idx = 0
    for k, v in pairs(tab) do
        idx = idx + 1
        keyset[idx] = k
    end
    table.sort(keyset)
    print("[print_keys]", table.concat(keyset, " | "))
end

function whimsy_prefix(prefix, id)
    return prefix .. "_whim_" .. id
end
function whimsy_joker(id)
    return whimsy_prefix("j", id)
end
function whimsy_modifier(id)
    return whimsy_prefix("m", id)
end
function whimsy_sound(id)
    return "whim_" .. id
end

[sturdy compass]

hm, very odd

[twin fiber]

.....i did disable _RELASE_MODE in the game file manually before starting the mod, now that i think of it, to get the debug menu. is it possible that has something to do with it?

[sturdy compass]

What Steamodded version are you running?

[twin fiber]

should be latest, i git clone'd the repo

[sturdy compass]

Might be an issue on dev maybe. Usually it's recommended to develop on latest release, not latest commit

[twin fiber]

yeah, i think you must be right - i just tested it without my mod, and i'm still getting the error. thanks for the help debugging, i never considered dev would have this issue!!

er, not an error. *unexpected behavior.

[sturdy compass]

I'll grab latest myself and see if I can repro

Actually I should've asked you this too: Did you spawn those cards in?

[twin fiber]

oh.

yes >~>

does that affect things

[sturdy compass]

That's it lol

Spawning cards in does not remove them from the pool

[twin fiber]

😭 oh my gosh, you learn something new every day

thanks 😭

[sturdy compass]

no problem, and dw that's a pretty weird one to learn lol

-# I'm honestly just glad it's not a smods bug

[versed swan]

??? That's weird lol

Although I guess debugging will always bring its own set of oddities

[sturdy compass]

Huh, I'm surprised you didn't know that one 😭

[versed swan]

I always thought it was like "if this card is in an area it's not in the pool unless showman"

see, i don't touch the pool, much like i dont touch the scoring loop

[sturdy compass]

I believe "adding a card to the deck" is what removes it from the pool, and I think for whatever reason, spawning a card through debug doesn't do that lol

[versed swan]

Maybe it has something to do with the buy button and stuff

[sturdy compass]

I literally just don't think card:add_to_deck() gets called on debug spawn lmao

[daring fern]

No, it's because a card's key is only added to G.GAME.used_jokers if G.OVERLAY_MENU does not exist.

[mystic river]

that's an oddly specific restriction
i wonder what thunk had in mind with it

[sturdy compass]

My guess would be so viewing collection mid-run doesn't mess with it

[near coral]

Where can I find the values to change the positions in the collection menu

I wanna make the first page normal and have the second mirror that of the first

[shell timber]

reload it ?

[near coral]

They're kind like that no matter how many times I restart the game

The disorganization was something I figured could be fixed after all the blinds were added

[teal grotto]

    message = "something",
    func = function()
        print("something")
    end
}```
how would you make the function actually trigger when the message does

[shell timber]

add it in an event

[tacit peak]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1507682513244655687 i am currently making a mod but i desperatly need coders. so if anyone wants to help i would be really thankful

[tacit peak]

specifically anyone thats good at making custom api would be great

[primal robin]

Peak card creation

(don't do that it's not proper way)

[hard kayak]

You could add dummy blinds that have no texture (it does still need an atlas but the atlas should point to a transparent png) or anything, can't appear in game and do nothing

[hardy vessel]

Is there a proper way to prevent multiple context.destroying_card effects from going off from the same card?

Like how Sixth Sense only works once on one played 6, even if you have multiple Sixth Sense

[latent perch]

I think you can either check existing flags like card.getting_sliced or smthin, or set your own flag e.g. card.sixth_sensed, and then check that it isn't set already.

just also make an Event to reset the flag if the card remains in the deck

[gusty compass]

what would i use to set a gradient for the title splash, cus this didnt seem to work

[red flower]

code?

[gusty compass]

SMODS.Gradient {
    key = "BgOne",
    colours = {
        HEX("c48454"),
        HEX("895d3b"),
        interpolation = "trig",
        cycle = 15
    },
}

SMODS.Gradient {
    key = "BgTwo",
    colours = {
        HEX("ab744a"),
        HEX("e69e66"),
        interpolation = "trig",
        cycle = 15
    },
}

G.C.mid_flash = 0
G.C.vort_time = 7
G.C.vort_speed = 0.4

-- Thank you yahimod for easy accessa 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
local game_main_menu_ref = Game.main_menu

Game.main_menu = function(change_context)
    local ret = game_main_menu_ref(change_context)
    G.SPLASH_BACK:define_draw_steps({
            {
                shader = "splash",
                send = {
                    { name = "time", ref_table = G.TIMERS, ref_value = "REAL_SHADER" },
                       {name = 'vort_speed', val = G.C.vort_speed},
                    {name = 'colour_1', ref_table = G.C, ref_value = 'BgOne'},
                    {name = 'colour_2', ref_table = G.C, ref_value = 'BgTwo'},
                    {name = 'mid_flash', ref_table = G.C, ref_value = 'mid_flash'},
                },
            },
        })
    return ret
end

idk how it works precisely

[red flower]

ref_table = SMODS.Gradients, ref_value = 'modprefix_BgOne'

granted, i think it will only pick the starting color but im not sure

[gusty compass]

im basing off of intuition since it appeared to work with polter

[red flower]

ah also

Game.main_menu = function(self, change_context)
local ret = game_main_menu_ref(self, change_context)

[gusty compass]

thanks

yea hold on, it appears to be getting nil?

nvm im just a bot and forgot i had a toml file with the same bit

[red flower]

i switched vanillaremade to recommend a patch instead of a hook because it's easier to preserve the title flash

[gusty compass]

yea, and hooking the splash, atleast when i tried it, deleted the cards that honed into the centre

so probably for the best

[keen totem]

why does the balatro logo on the main menu drift to the right when you have multiple mods enabled that add cards to the title cardarea

[slim ferry]

because cryptid was like the first mod to add a card to the main menu i think(?) and it multiplied the cardarea size for the title card

which kinda became the standard

but that breaks when theres a lot of mods doing that

[mystic river]

and they did the math wrong

one of the numbers was slightly off

[slim ferry]

at least SMODS.current_mod.menu_cards exists now

[mystic river]

yes, use that instead and you won't have this issue

(or, y'know, tell the mod devs)

[slim ferry]

speaking of

i should still port cryptid to that prob

[median rose]

I'm trying to make an event for when the wheel is used via toml. I should see "consumable print" in the console, but i don't when the tarot is used. Did I miss something?

context.card.ability.set

the structure of a Card instance isnt on the steamodded wiki because it is a vanilla thing

i tried that and it crashed

nvm something happened to make that not crash

ill take what i have ig

[glossy sky]

how would I return/shuffle cards from the hand into the deck?

[fervent rampart]

I used SMODS.create_card to make booster packs appear in the shop and all is well, except that they're tiny. I've seen code in other mods to correct this, but those are done totally differently and are always coded for specific packs instead of random ones. I've not gotten it to work when trying to get a random pack key. So is there a way to stick with SMODS.create_card and resize them?

[red flower]

do you want the shop to have an extra booster permanently or conditionally

[fervent rampart]

permanently

[red flower]

SMODS.change_booster_limit(1)

[fervent rampart]

Thank you very much!

[silk latch]

Why is it crashing like this? It should be able to either pull the value from the mod calc or just take the 0 over it.

[frosty dock]

config is initialized when the game is loaded, G.GAME doesn't exist yet at that point

[frosty dock]

if you want to initalize a config variable based on something in G.GAME, you have to do so in set_ability

[viscid talon]

is there a way to have scored enhanced cards do something

like for example theres SMODS.has_enhancement(context.other_card, "m_gold")

is there like an "m_all" or something like that

would next(SMODS.get_enhancements(context.other_card)) work

ok it does

this guy doesn't add a timer to the card's description, and doesnt give me moeny after 5 seconds (5 seconds for testing)

sorry for wall of text

[amber turret]

does anyone know how to make negative antes have score requirements of the non-negative counterpart?

Like, make ante -1 and 1 have the same requirement, and -2 and 2 having the same score requirement, etc, instead of negatives having the same requirements of ante 0?

[slim ferry]

hook get_blind_amount(ante) to take the absolute value of ante instead

[astral pine]

I'm not sure if this is exactly a modding question, but does anyone know how to expand the collab skin area like picture 1? I wanna take a preview screenshot but it shows as picture 2 and i'm not sure if it's just a mod I don't know about

[amber turret]

so, how would i do it in a way that works? I tried just copying the function from the game and just pasted it and modified it in my mod lua file and the game crashed.

[torn thunder]

99% sure u can just add to the display_ranks property of the SMODS.DeckSkin

[amber turret]

wait...

was the reason it crashed was BECAUSE OF A DAMN EXTRA COMMA???

[astral pine]

I tried this but it seems to be the same as setting the ranks property

[red flower]

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

[white zinc]

does seltzer not count as a "food joker" in the code?

[daring fern]

No, it does.

[white zinc]

            if context.card:has_attribute('food') then
                card.ability.extra.Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult + card.ability.extra.Xmult_gain
                return {
                    message = localize('k_upgrade_ex'),
                    colour = G.C.MULT,
                }
            end
        end```

using up seltzer doesn't trigger this code

oh wait now it did

hmm

perhaps a bug

[glossy dagger]

First time making a mod, please send help

[red flower]

text = { "description" }
?

[glossy dagger]

... I am so fucking dumb

Thanks!

Huh....

[long sun]

how do i check if the player is in a booster pack, and how do i increase the currently open booster pack's number of choices?

oh, you again

<@&1133519078540185692>

cheers

[glossy dagger]

?

[long sun]

[hmm i suspect they might be deleting their own messages]

[they weren't banned last time]

[glossy dagger]

what

[long sun]

scammer

anyway

[glossy dagger]

A scammer, where?

[long sun]

add a } at the end of your file

[long sun]

not here atm

[long sun]

i've figured out the first half of this question

[glossy dagger]

uhhhh, i dont understand-

i literally add {} at the end and start of the file?

[long sun]

nono

add just a }

the error says there's a mismatched { somewhere

so you need to close it

[glossy dagger]

oh wait, i think what happened

No, i didnt know

[long sun]

what did you try?

have you tried adding a } at the end of the file?

[glossy dagger]

This is the whole joker btw

[long sun]

add a comma to the end of line 5

that's your problem

more likely, you misplaced it

[glossy dagger]

WHY THERE IS A COMMA INSIDE THE {}

I AM BLIIIND

[long sun]

same -3- i missed that too

it happens

[glossy dagger]

My god, thats was it

[long sun]

yay :D

[glossy dagger]

just 2 errors before launching

new record

Okay, the atlas doesnt work

[long sun]

maybe those four Jokers have the wrong atlas, in the code?

[mystic river]

local gba = get_blind_amount
function get_blind_amount(ante)
 ante = math.abs(ante)
 return gba(ante)
end

[glossy dagger]

i will see

[red flower]

G.STATE == G.STATES.SMODS_BOOSTER_OPENED
(from memory so idk if it's exactly that)

[glossy dagger]

The atlas seems right

[red flower]

idk about the choices while you're in the pack

[long sun]

nail on the head, yes

[long sun]

i'll try something, but it might not work

[long sun]

check the cards' assigned atlases

[glossy dagger]

yeah, just found that

I love coding!

[long sun]

wahoo! you found the bug ^u^ well done /gen

[viscid talon]

trying to make a divine blueprint, but i have no idea how to make the joker itself retrigger

[glossy dagger]

IT WORKS, IS ALIVE

[viscid talon]

also i have no idea if my code works either

[long sun]

well. that was easy

[also, hello mmmmmjokers joker]

i did G.GAME.pack_choices = G.GAME.pack_choices + card.ability.extra.added_choices, for reference

it seems that variable is what the booster uses for its selections

[red flower]

this looks like it never returns ret

[long sun]

hello??? cool okay

[viscid talon]

how do i make it return ret without the localisation going all funky, bc i tried doing end statements and it kinda didnt want to

[long sun]

omg hawker hai ^u^

[median rose]

Not sure what I'm looking for exactly. But I opened dump in vsc, and tried looking for consumable_print in all the files, and didn't find anything

[red flower]

i dont want to sound mean but i would really recommend that you do some basic lua practice

[viscid talon]

😭 its just one joker

the other divine jokers worked out fine, this is the last one i need to program

i managed to get divine smeared, divine swashbuckler, divine walkie talkie and a few others working without any bit of help

[red flower]

then it probably didn't patch im guessing
search for the pattern to see if the code is there

[median rose]

pattern as in regex? Through the same search bar?

[viscid talon]

whatever ill just scrap it

[red flower]

I mean the eligible_joker:set_edition part

[sturdy compass]

Scrapping it is passing on an opportunity to learn imo

[viscid talon]

astra

please

not now

[sturdy compass]

I'm trying to be positive 😭

[median rose]

yes, I found that in two files

[red flower]

is your code above the second one

[median rose]

No, bc ctrl + f is not giving anything for GameState

[viscid talon]

i was typing an explanation out but it sounds incomprehensible so ill just get rid of it

my main point is

i dont want to

[red flower]

hmm can i see where the toml is

[viscid talon]

at the very least im not relying on ai to help me figure out how to make this work (neither are any of you, but thats besides the point)

[median rose]

it's in the root of my mod

[red flower]

ah

it needs to be named lovely.toml or be in a lovely folder

[median rose]

god damn it

thank you

[viscid talon]

oh yeah theres a tutorial for that hold on

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHL6DVQFww8 <- is it this one?

[red flower]

there's a tutorial on https://github.nh6574.com/vanillaremade/wiki

[viscid talon]

ah nvm

[red flower]

yes

[median rose]

is there a reason why you put your tomls in a sub folder here?

[red flower]

organization

tags.toml last updated in commit: tags
im very good with names

[fading rivet]

i used AI for shaders initially

[fading rivet]

@torn thunder i dont anymore I have learned

[primal robin]

I use it for lua patterns and regexes because they're stupid

[glossy dagger]

I have an idea but i need help

look, uhhh

is basically a joker called "Go fish" and functions like this:
when (Random card) is drawn from the deck, +10$

the random card should work like Idol

the problem is "drawn from deck", the fact that appears in your hand, not in the scored cards

there is a way?

[primal robin]

look for death note from hotpot

[glossy dagger]

hot potato?

[primal robin]

yes

[glossy dagger]

Why there is 2?

[primal robin]

idk

[torn thunder]

Because Bmm Sucks

[primal robin]

or this

[glossy dagger]

Nevermind, is just this

now the problem is putting this in basically stolen Idol code

[tulip pecan]

Is it possible to make the infobox related to config = { card_limit = 5 } say "Joker slots" as opposed to "area slots" if it's on a joker?

[glossy dagger]

How works "context.end.of.round"?

[primal robin]

this answered in VanillaRemade wiki, I believe

[glossy dagger]

where if i can ask?

[tulip pecan]

would this help? https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Calculate-Functions#contextend_of_round

[glossy dagger]

just seen, the problem now is the random card

[red flower]

idk what post_draw_individual is in hot pot but you probably want context.hand_drawn

[primal robin]

is it custom context?

[red flower]

i think the hotpot context is a new one for better animations

yes

[glossy dagger]

context

[glossy dagger]

oh no

[red flower]

context.hand_drawn is the context for when cards are drawn in a round

[glossy dagger]

oh, thanks

but now my problem is generating the same card

I could use the same as Idol but that could be kinda cheap

[red flower]

wdym kinda cheap

[glossy dagger]

like, too lazy?, idk

[red flower]

i was about to tell you to look at what idol does lol

[red flower]

no that's how you program effects 😭

i wrote all the ones in vanillaremade so people copy best practices instead of inventing their own stuff lmao

[glossy dagger]

idol uses its own global variable

[red flower]

ah did you mean literally using the one for idol

[glossy dagger]

yeah

[red flower]

i know i wrote that lmao

just copy the way it chooses

[frozen bay]

My mod practices consists of Astra's tutorial videos, VRemade and the prayers of understanding SMODS Documentations

[primal robin]

Good start

[glossy dagger]

same

[glossy dagger]

i can create a G. variable or i am just bullshitting?

[red flower]

you can create anything in any table in lua but it's usually recommended to either save it to G.GAME (everything there is saved to the run file) or if it's temporary make your own global with your mod name

[glossy dagger]

Just replacing the values of mail in revate with other variable so it doesnt mix

[red flower]

yeah

[glossy dagger]

Whole code btw

just changed everything mail related with fishing

(Because is the Go fish joker)

[urban wasp]

i want it so that if a specific deck is selected, every instance of the vanilla sound "card1" is replaced by a sound in my mod. how could i accomplish this?

[red flower]

hook play_sound probably

[glossy dagger]

help pls

[red flower]

how does the config look like

[glossy dagger]

fixed it

i think

i need help

again...

I need a way that the text shows the card selected by the variable fishing_card

i can send the whole code

[red flower]

in the loc_vars return you are using vremade_mail instead of your card

and then in the description you're not using the card which would be #2#

[glass scaffold]

Well... don't know how we got here.

[glass scaffold]

One of your contexts may be messed up.

[glossy dagger]

My code is:
loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
local fishing_card = G.GAME.actualround_fishingcard or { rank = 'Ace', suit = 'Spades' }
return { vars = { card.ability.extra.dollars, localize((G.GAME.current_round.going_fishing or {}).rank or 'Ace', 'ranks') } }
end,
calculate = function(self, info_queue, card)
if context.hand_drawn and not context.other_card.debuff and
context.other_card:get_id() == G.GAME.actualround_fishingcard.id then
G.GAME.dollar_buffer = (G.GAME.dollar_buffer or 0) + card.ability.extra.dollars
return {
dollars = card.ability.extra.dollars,
func = function() -- This is for timing purposes, it runs after the dollar manipulation
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
func = function()
G.GAME.dollar_buffer = 0
return true
end
}))
end
}
end
end

and for the generator or how is called:
local function reset_current_fishing_card()
G.GAME.actualround_fishingcard = { rank = 'Ace' }
local valid_fishing_cards = {}
for _, playing_card in ipairs(G.playing_cards) do
if not SMODS.has_no_rank(playing_card) then
valid_fishing_cards[#valid_fishing_cards + 1] = playing_card
end
end
local fishing__card = pseudorandom_element(valid_fishing_cards, 'going_fishing' .. G.GAME.round_resets.ante)
if fishing_card then
G.GAME.current_round.going_fishing.rank = fishing_card.base.value
G.GAME.current_round.going_fishing.id = fishing_card.base.id
end
end

[red flower]

it says self, info_queue, card

those are not the arguments for calculate

you can name them whatever you want but you know what i mean

[glossy dagger]

thanks

uuuuhhhh

Then why in vanilla remade mail in rebate is like this?

[gilded blaze]

it's loc_vars, not calculate

uh, mail is also the vanilla key

[glossy dagger]

i mean

uhhh, forgot to clearifie that

it works, i think

oh

[urban wasp]

how would i make it so that a card front (as in, the default card texture that you see on the front/technically middle of playing cards) is set to a custom texture when a specific deck is used?

kinda like how it's changed with enhancements

[dawn knoll]

can someone help me make a planet card

[red flower]

depends on what you need help with

[naive coral]

how could i , if possible get the total amount of time needed to finish all jokers scoring? like say you have a baron mime build and it takes 30s to score because it has like 10 red seal steel kings

[shell timber]

you could use love.timer.getTime() before and after scoring

[median rose]

I am trying to check which specific playing card is being affected by the magician when in a blind. However, when I run what I have, the cards do not have the enhancement. Ik this bc print_playing_cards prints out "5 of Hearts, 9 of Diamonds..." when it should be "5 of Hearts (Lucky Card), 9 of Diamonds (Lucky Card) ...". I would show the print statement, but it's too long. I need to figure out either: 1. if there's a what to select a card via a individualized value like an id (not the way that variable is currently used) or 2. a way to get new G.hand.cards after the ehancements are applied. I would preferably like to do the latter bc it sounds easier. Does anyone know how to do either?

--gamestate.lua
GameState = {
    playing_cards = {}, -- the playing cards in hand during a blind
}

function GameState.set_playing_cards(cards)
    local copy = {}
    for _, card in ipairs(cards) do
        table.insert(copy, card)
    end
    GameState.playing_cards = copy
end

return GameState

[[patches]]
[patches.pattern]
target = "card.lua"
pattern = '''
for i=1, #G.hand.highlighted do
    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({trigger = 'after',delay = 0.1,func = function() G.hand.highlighted[i]:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS[self.ability.consumeable.mod_conv]);return true end }))

      GameState.print_playing_cards()
    end
end
'''

I apologize for the edits. I try to cut out code that is irrelevant to the problem, but I realized there were some lines that didn't make sense, so I added them in

Here is the print function for anyone curious as a file

[red flower]

your code runs before the event magician creates

put it in another event

[median rose]

I'm not familiar with the consumables events. I was going off of the play log source code.

[dawn knoll]

what code do i use to upgrade a specific hand type by multiple levels

[urban wasp]

how would i detect how many retriggers occurred in a played hand

[red flower]

check SMODS.upgrade_poker_hands in the utility docs

[urban wasp]

for a joker to activate on joker_main

[red flower]

the G.E_MANAGER thing puts an event in a queue to happen later basically, if your code is not in an event then it will run immediately
there are a couple of events in playlog for this reason

if it runs immediately here then it's before the cards are enhanced

[dawn knoll]

i could use a hand in fixing the hand upgrade part of the code

error message im getting

[red flower]

instead of card.config it should be card.ability

also your smods seems very outdated

that's causing the crash

[dawn knoll]

yippee it worked

thank you

[urban wasp]

scrump bump

oops didn't mean to put that

ignore picture

[glossy dagger]

Idk how to fix this

wrong file, this is the real one

[urban wasp]

how would i make it so that a text ui element is essentially given {E:1}

[iron oxide]

localizing iirc

[urban wasp]

would track

[glossy dagger]

i fixed the code... kinda

the joker doesnt do anything

[red flower]

there's no other_card in hand_drawn

context.hand_drawn is the list of cards drawn

[glossy dagger]

i already fixed that

[red flower]

it doesn't look like you did it properly from the code you sent in general

stay_flipped will run for other things other than from deck to hand so you also need to check the areas

[urban wasp]

why doesn't my sound play in my joker? (yes the mod prefix is correct)

return {
    xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult,
    sound = "bof_alarm_ring"
}

SMODS.Sound({
    key = "alarm_ring",
    path = "alarm_ring.ogg",
    loop = false,
    volume = 0.5,
})

[frosty dock]

sound doesn't work with default messages

you need to either use xmult_message with sound inside or remove_default_message + message

[languid kiln]

Hello! I really didn't want to be spoon fed code but at this point it is the only way I'm gonna figure this out.
Basically, I want to make a joker that swaps the cards in hand with cards played. I tried a bunch of different things and this was the closest one to actually working:

SMODS.Joker {
  key="swap_joker",
  loc_txt = {name = "Swap Joker", text= {"Cards in {C:attention}hand{} are","scored instead of"," cards {C:attention}played{}"}},
  rarity = 2,
  atlas = "swap_joker",
  cost = 4,
  unlocked = true,
  blueprint_compat = false,
  eternal_compat = true,
  perishable_compat = true;
  calculate = function (self, card, context)
    if context.before then
      local temp = G.play.cards;
      G.play.cards = G.hand.cards;
      G.hand.cards = temp;
    end
  end
}

This swaps the card positions alright, but for some reason none of the cards are scored and there is a bunch of jank with it, like for example after playing a hand the cards previously in hand aren't usable anymore. Can someone please help me solve this?
-# Also if there is another way to achieve the joker description I'd love to learn about that

[gilded blaze]

you just swapped the references of 2 card areas that hold cards

of course it's gonna break

[languid kiln]

I did think of that and try to individually carry every card instead like this

but this ended up somehow not even carrying the cards properly and it had worse jank

i hope someone doesn't roast me for this code i genuinely have no idea what I'm doing 😭 im new to balatro modding

[daring fern]

local cards = SMODS.shallow_copy(G.hand.cards)
for k, v in pairs(G.play.cards) do
    v.area:remove_card(v)
    G.hand:emplace(v)
end
for k, v in pairs(cards) do
    v.area:remove_card(v)
    G.play:emplace(v)
end

[languid kiln]

doesn't shallow_copy return a table tho? I thought that would get rid of the card objects being a Card

[frosty dock]

a shallow copy is just a shallow copy, not a deep one

it copies the existing Cards into a new table, it doesn't recreate them

[urban wasp]

anybody have an idea on how to do this

my attempts have been in vain

i'm talking about the sprite to the right of red deck here

[daring fern]

You would have to hook Card:set_sprites, also that's called the center sprite, not the front.

[urban wasp]

oh ok

[urban wasp]

this is my best shot, but it's not replacing anything; what am i doing wrong?

local original_card_set_sprites = Card.set_sprites
function Card:set_sprites(_center, _front)
    original_card_set_sprites(self, _center, _front)
    if G.GAME and G.GAME.selected_back and G.GAME.selected_back.effect and G.GAME.selected_back.effect.center and G.GAME.selected_back.effect.center.key == "b_bof_l_wooden" and self.config.center and self.config.center.set == "Card" then
        self.sprites.center = G.ASSET_ATLAS["wooden"]
    end
end

the "l" in the key is intentional

[frosty dock]

set is never "Card"

it's "Default" for base cards and "Enhanced" for enhanced cards

[urban wasp]

ah

ok now i'm confused

local original_card_set_sprites = Card.set_sprites
function Card:set_sprites(_center, _front)
    original_card_set_sprites(self, _center, _front)
    if G.GAME and G.GAME.selected_back and G.GAME.selected_back.effect and G.GAME.selected_back.effect.center and G.GAME.selected_back.effect.center.key == "b_bof_l_wooden" and self.config.center and self.config.center.set == "Default" then
        self.sprites.center = G.ASSET_ATLAS["wooden"]
    end
end

ok the crash just needed a nil check but it still doesn't work

[frosty dock]

well yeah self.sprites doesn't exist

look at how base Card:set_sprites actually works

[urban wasp]

oh what then how do i change the sprite

i thought that'd be it

[frosty dock]

the sprite is stored in self.children.center and you need to create an actual Sprite, e.g., using SMODS.create_sprite

[urban wasp]

i mean i have a texture in an atlas of just that

i assume then i need something more than that?

yeah but that's an atlas and not a Sprite

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Utility#smodscreate_spritex-y-width-height-atlas_key-pos---spriteanimatedsprite

Also the atlas key likely needs your mod prefix unless you've specifically made it not

[urban wasp]

i have a record of forgetting about that

ok well that's a step in some kind of direction

local original_card_set_sprites = Card.set_sprites
function Card:set_sprites(_center, _front)
    original_card_set_sprites(self, _center, _front)
    if G.GAME and G.GAME.selected_back and G.GAME.selected_back.effect and G.GAME.selected_back.effect.center and G.GAME.selected_back.effect.center.key == "b_bof_l_wooden" and self.config.center and self.config.center.set == "Default" and self.children then
        self.children.center = SMODS.create_sprite(0, 0, self.T.w, self.T.h, "bof_wooden", { x = 0, y = 0 })
    end
end

i tried doing what i saw but i don't think i got it all down

they're attached to the cards in some way just not where they're supposed to be

[daring fern]

if self.children.center then self.children.center:remove() end
self.children.center = SMODS.create_sprite(0, 0, self.T.w, self.T.h, 'bof_wooden', {x = 0, y = 0})
self.children.center.states.hover = self.states.hover
self.children.center.states.click = self.states.click
self.children.center.states.drag = self.states.drag
self.children.center.states.collide.can = false
self.children.center:set_role({major = self, role_type = 'Glued', draw_major = self})

[urban wasp]

that worked perfectly thank you

[willow nimbus]

getting this error because of SMODS.Font, not sure what the mistake is here

[wintry solar]

Can you send the full crash screen

[willow nimbus]

yeah sure hangon

please ignore the name of the mod i started making it around the start of last year

also have noticed that it only crashes when i try and use it as a font in a loc_txt

[long sun]

how can i not ignore it 😭

[willow nimbus]

just try your best to please 💔

[long sun]

okay 🥀

[wintry solar]

Your smods and lovely are over a year out of date

[willow nimbus]

that is

not surprising

i really only picked up development two days ago

[wintry solar]

They predate font support

[willow nimbus]

Okayyyy yeah that makes sense

Easy fix though

Cheers

[gilded blaze]

when will smods go out of beta

[willow nimbus]

the mod's refusing to load over dependencies now

i have 1.0.0-beta-1620a and ive put that in the json

it still says this though, despite the fact that i've changed the dependency in the json

[slim ferry]

did you save the file

[willow nimbus]

i did yeah

both the main.lua file and the json

[slim ferry]

did you reload the game after that

[willow nimbus]

yeah

[slim ferry]

are you editing the mod in the mods folder instead of some copy located elsewhere

[willow nimbus]

ive saved both files several times and ive reopened the game several times

[willow nimbus]

yeah its the mods folder

might just restart my pc and hope for the best honestly

oh

got it

just disabled and reenabled the mod in the mods menu

[silk latch]

So like this?

SMODS.Consumable { -- I, Super Jump
    key = 'superjump',
    set = 'WheelofFate',
    atlas = 'ghostfort',
    pos = {
        x = 0,
        y = 0
    },
    set_ability = function(self, center)
        center.ability.extra.xmult = 1.5
        center.ability.extra.duration = math.ceil((2 + (G.GAME.extended_duration_turns or 0)) *
            (G.GAME.extended_duration_mult or 1))
    end,
    --    select_card = 'consumeables',

    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return {
            vars = {
                card.ability.extra.xmult,
                card.ability.extra.duration
            }
        }
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            return {
                xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult,
            }
        end
        if context.end_of_round and context.game_over == false and context.main_eval and not context.blueprint then
            card.ability.extra.duration = card.ability.extra.duration - 1
            if card.ability.extra.duration <= 0 then
                SMODS.destroy_cards(card, nil, nil, true)
            end
        end
    end,
    use = function(self, card, area, copier)
    end,
    can_use = function(self, card)
        return true
    end
}

[frosty dock]

not sure why you'd name the parameter center, but I guess that's fine. you do still need config with default values though, so that ability.extra actually exists and for tooltips

[silk latch]

Probably due to me mugging Cryptid for spare code

[weak grove]

how do i apply accendant stake to a custom stake i made?

[frosty dock]

what do you have in your applied_stakes?

[frosty dock]

why is it screaming

[weak grove]

got mad.

[weak grove]

ignore the screaming

[frosty dock]

why would I do that, keys are not case insensitive

[weak grove]

well whats the key i should us

e

?

what r u saying?

[frosty dock]

the key as it actually is, which is "cry_ascendant", lower case. also applied_stakes are prefixed by default, which means you need to add prefix_config for it

[frosty dock]

sorry I got interrupted by something irl for literally 2 minutes, no need to get impatient

[weak grove]

config?

[frosty dock]

prefix_config = { applied_stakes = { mod = false } } if you need that spoon-fed

[weak grove]

well jeez im kinda new to applying stakes

whats the {mod = false} for?

[frosty dock]

it's so it doesn't add your mod prefix to the applied stake's key

smods otherwise assumes that the stake you want to apply is from your own mod

which it isn't, so you need to let it know that you've supplied the correct prefix yourself

[weak grove]

ahhh

[frosty dock]

this is all explained in smods docs if you wanna learn about it in more detail

[glass scaffold]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/API-Documentation

I have it bookmarked for when I decide to make another stupid thing in my mod, but yeah, it has almost every little thing documented.

[glass crown]

i put this patch into my mod, but it doesnt seem to be taking effect? its supposed to just literally duplicate the hand level up code in the hand level up function basically, but nothing new happens, not even a crash. can someone point me to whats going wrong here exactly? (its worth noting, while im currently trying to just duplicate the level up, im gonna clean this up more later and make it like work better)

nevermind i figured out a way cleaner, faster, working implementation of exactly what i wanted to do LMAO

[sturdy compass]

Dev ingenuity lol

[frosty dock]

either way: you need to base your patches on what you see in your lovely dump with smods patches applied and not base vanilla code

In this case, smods is adding an extra parameter: function level_up_hand(card, hand, instant, amount, statustext)

[glass crown]

ahhh i see okay noted for the future

[silk latch]

so

SMODS.Consumable { -- I, Super Jump
    key = 'superjump',
    set = 'WheelofFate',
    atlas = 'ghostfort',
    pos = {
        x = 0,
        y = 0
    },
    set_ability = function(self, card)
        card.ability.extra.xmult = 1.5
        card.ability.extra.duration = math.ceil((2 + (G.GAME.extended_duration_turns or 0)) *
            (G.GAME.extended_duration_mult or 1))
    end,
    --    select_card = 'consumeables',
    config = {
        extra = {
            xmult = 1.5,
            duration = 2,
        }
    },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return {
            vars = {
                card.ability.extra.xmult,
                card.ability.extra.duration
            }
        }
    end,
    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.joker_main then
            return {
                xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult,
            }
        end
        if context.end_of_round and context.game_over == false and context.main_eval and not context.blueprint then
            card.ability.extra.duration = card.ability.extra.duration - 1
            if card.ability.extra.duration <= 0 then
                SMODS.destroy_cards(card, nil, nil, true)
            end
        end
    end,
    use = function(self, card, area, copier)
    end,
    can_use = function(self, card)
        return true
    end
}

[frosty dock]

is there a question?

setting xmult in set_ability is redundant but this looks fine to me

[silk latch]

cool

just wanted to make sure lol

[white zinc]

        if context.reroll_shop then
            self.config.current_reroll_cost = context.cost + 1
        end
        if context.end_of_round then
            G.GAME.current_round.reroll_cost = self.config.current_reroll_cost
            G.GAME.round_resets.reroll_cost = self.config.current_reroll_cost
        end
    end```

this is the code i have right now for a deck who's rerolls only increase in price. the problem with this is that with the way i coded it, chaos the clown and both reroll vouchers basically scam you. is there a better way i can code this deck so that these don't break? or would i need to patch the game to fix these issues manually?

[weak grove]

whats the code for a ui box?

[white zinc]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/UI-Guide

[weak grove]

yes, but-- i dont know wheter to make a folder with a ui.lua thingy in it

[red flower]

you can put ui code wherever

i honestly wouldn't recommend doing anything ui related if you are very new

[weak grove]

i am very new

[red flower]

what does it do currently

[weak grove]

i am very new to making ui

[white zinc]

chaos the clown sets the rerolls to $0 when you buy him, but doesn't give you a free reroll in any future shop. the vouchers (last time i checked) give you a discounted first reroll price when bought but then it goes back in all future shops

or are you asking ab the code?

[red flower]

no it was that

and what is your deck supposed to do? just increment by 1 extra each time?

ah no i see

i would hook function calculate_reroll_cost

[white zinc]

it starts at a value (in my case, 0) and increases the cost by 1 every reroll

[fading rivet]

mod calculate reroll_shop scale value

wait its a deck

deck calculate

[red flower]

and the increases are permanent, right?

or am i misunderstanding

[white zinc]

yes, but i think having chaos the clown should still give you a free reroll each shop, as well as using the vouchers should permanently decrease the reroll cost by whatever it normally does

[red flower]

yeah ok then i would hook that function and change the logic for your deck

instead of using calculate

[white zinc]

i've never done hooks before. can you link me to the documentation?

[red flower]

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

[white zinc]

so i would just put the code i have in my calc function into a hook?

[red flower]

no, the logic should be different

you can look at the original, its like 5 lines
you would need a global that takes into account the increases like you had with self.config (which i just realized that is wrong because self.config is not saved it should be back.effect.config) and then change the current cost to that while taking into account the free rerolls

[white zinc]

when you say "original", are you referring to the vanilla game code?

[red flower]

yes

well, the lovely/dump but yes

[white zinc]

create a global variable that tracks total number of rerolls in a game, then set the price to that?

[red flower]

yeah

[white zinc]

there's already a global reroll counter?

i assume i'm looking for the function that actually rerolls the shop

[glossy dagger]

Someone can say whats wrong with my code? (The problem is that "valid_fishing_card" appears as null (This is my first time coding pls dont be so hard))

[red flower]

the one you posted might work idk, but you can also just use the deck calculate to count that

[white zinc]

there's the Game:update_shop(dt) code, but i assume that runs each time the shop is loaded, not specifically rerolled

[weak grove]

how to get past this?

[fading rivet]

hook it like this

[red flower]

i dont understand why youre looking for reroll code

[fading rivet]

oh wait i misread
its ran every frame

but i wouldn't recommending hooking it

[weak grove]

?????

[white zinc]

i think i'm just confused as to what i should be looking for then

[fading rivet]

theres definitely a better way

[fading rivet]

we are discussing a different problem be paitent

[red flower]

did you read the function i told you about?

this one

[white zinc]

oh, no i missed that

OHHH i was looking in the wrong code

[fading rivet]

also if that doesn't work, G.FUNCS.reroll_shop probably exists

[white zinc]

apologies

[red flower]

that would be the same as using calculate

that doesnt solve the problem

[fading rivet]

hmm

[red flower]

i already gave a solution!!

[glass crown]

how would i go about making a deck start with no numbered cards? (A - 10)

[fading rivet]

use vscode settings, not the file

you can't edit that file so that vscode doesn't implode

[red flower]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/1501a#smodsbackinitial_deck

[glass crown]

ooo thank you! :3

[glossy dagger]

Pls someone? at least i want to know what to fix

[red flower]

log?

[red flower]

do you call reset_vremade_mail_rank in the rest globals function

[glossy dagger]

Oh... nope

how i do that?

[red flower]

read the comment in that section of vremade and check the bottom of the jokers.lua file

[weak grove]

?

[fading rivet]

i genuinly can't make this any more clear

do you need step by step instructions?

[red flower]

file > preferences > settings

[glossy dagger]

just made it, now appears this

I am a disaster dude

[red flower]

what is that line

[fading rivet]

replace info_queue with card in your calculate funciton
