        if context.end_of_round then
            if context.main_eval then
                if SMODS.last_hand_oneshot then
                    G.GAME.interest_amount = G.GAME.interest_amount * card.ability.extra.interest
                end
            end
        end
    end,```
also it still gave me $9 even though i didnt have the joker

[red flower]

im assuming you reset the run

[glossy dagger]

oh, i see

[brittle yacht]

no i tested the joker then sold it

[red flower]

well this is a permanent change

[brittle yacht]

oh

[red flower]

if you want it to go back you need to reset it in remove_from_deck

[glossy dagger]

It works, thanks

i will do a lil debuggin now thinking

first time i think

i have to make the joker dont trigger debuffed cards

[red flower]

check raised fist :3

[brittle yacht]

okay wait

n'

im confused

[glossy dagger]

i did it

[brittle yacht]

the joker is supposed to triple the FINAL amount of interest gained at the end of round ONLY IF you win with fire effects

[glossy dagger]

I DID MY FIRST SOLO DEBUGGIN, LETS GOOOO

[brittle yacht]

 calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.end_of_round then
            if context.main_eval then
                if SMODS.last_hand_oneshot then
                    G.GAME.interest_amount = G.GAME.interest_amount * card.ability.extra.interest
                end
            end
        end
    end,

    remove_from_deck = function(self, card, from_debuff)
        G.GAME.interest_amount = G.GAME.interest_amount - card.ability.extra.interest
    end,

and this is what i have

[glossy dagger]

was only adding this

[brittle yacht]

im doing calculations and that doesnt look right

with 20 dollars
20/5 = 4
4*3 = 12
NOT 36

or am i stupid

[red flower]

it should be 12 yeah

[brittle yacht]

so why is it 36

[red flower]

again, are you resetting the run

[glossy dagger]

Parentesis??

idk

[brittle yacht]

sorry yeah mb hold on

[red flower]

if you want it to only happen for that round you should reset it in both remove_from_deck and in context.starting_shop (making sure you only do it once)

also the opposite of multiplication is division not subtraction lol

[brittle yacht]

14/5 = 2.whatever
2*3 = 6

okay 6 is what i got

[glossy dagger]

The second most simple joker in the mod by far

(Placeholder)

[brittle yacht]

okay i played one with fire effects and got 6 (which is correct, i had 14)
and then i played one without fire effects and got 5 (which is correct, i had 25)
and then i played another one with fire effects and got 5 (which is incorrect, i had 36)

[brittle yacht]

last one shoulda be 21, yeah?

        if context.end_of_round then
            if context.main_eval then
                if SMODS.last_hand_oneshot then
                    G.GAME.interest_amount = G.GAME.interest_amount * card.ability.extra.interest
                end
            end
        end
        if context.starting_shop then
            G.GAME.interest_amount = G.GAME.interest_amount / card.ability.extra.interest
        end
    end,

    remove_from_deck = function(self, card, from_debuff)
        G.GAME.interest_amount = G.GAME.interest_amount / card.ability.extra.interest
    end,```

what did i do wrong this time

[red flower]

15 i think

since theres a cap

[brittle yacht]

oh yeah

but it still isnt correct

[red flower]

the problem is that you are always resetting the value

you only want to do it when you increase it

[brazen rock]

need a little help here:

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.main_scoring and context.cardarea == G.play then
            if next(SMODS.get_enhancements(card)) then
                return {
                    Xmult = 2
                }
            else
                return {
                    mult = 15
                }
            end
        end
    end

what should happen is that enhanced cards should give X2 mult, but they give +15 for some reason..?
idk what im doing wrong

[fading rivet]

any idea why this won't modify the cards rank
it works if I call it manually with debugplus

replacing _card with dp.hovered

[brazen rock]

nevermind im stupid

i got confused with editions and enhancements

[fading rivet]

nvm problem solved

[naive coral]

how can i make sure that the joker in the shop is selectable, but not in the joker cardarea? this is the original hook but i cant figure out how to make it work

function CardArea:add_to_highlighted(card, silent, ...)
    if card.config.center.key == "j_Krypton_LiamCat" or card.config.center.key == "j_Krypton_UltimaJungle then 
        return nil 
    end         
    return StayTheStill(self, card, silent, ...)
end```

[red flower]

card.area and card.area == G.jokers

[naive coral]

function CardArea:add_to_highlighted(card, silent, ...)
    if card.config.center.key == "j_Krypton_LiamCat" or card.config.center.key == "j_Krypton_UltimaJungle" and card.area and card.area == G.jokers then 
        return nil 
    end         
    return StayTheStill(self, card, silent, ...)
end

like this?

[red flower]

yes

[naive coral]

it doesnt seem to prevent the joker from being unselectable in the shop

[red flower]

what about self == G.jokers

[naive coral]

```` if card.config.center.key == "j_Krypton_LiamCat" or card.config.center.key == "j_Krypton_UltimaJungle" and self == G.jokers then ``` like that?

[fading rivet]

what the equivilant for SMODS.Jokers for enhancements?

[red flower]

SMODS.Enhancements?

[glossy dagger]

I have a doubt

[fading rivet]

nope

already tried that lol, hence why i'm asking

[red flower]

there might not be one

[fading rivet]

weird

P_CENTER_POOLS then ig

[glossy dagger]

I am doing a joker that gives -15 mult (Dont ask (Is balanced, i swear)) but i want to do it only if mult is more than 20

[fading rivet]

if mult > 15

iirc

mult and chips are global variables

[red flower]

SMODS.Enhancement.obj_table should exist

[glossy dagger]

I think something like this but with a if and some things

[fading rivet]

sob

[glossy dagger]

like, if mult > 20 return -15 mult

but i know is not just mult

because is a global variable

[red flower]

what is this

[glossy dagger]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Scoring_Parameter-and-SMODS.Scoring_Calculation

[fading rivet]

calculate = function()
  if mult > 20 then return {mult = -15} end
end

thas all you need

[glossy dagger]

I kinda knowed it

[red flower]

thats for making the default scoring use chips-mult

[glossy dagger]

oh

[red flower]

not for subtracting mult in an effect

[glossy dagger]

thanks

[fading rivet]

is there one for spectrals or consumables?

I need to get the loc_vars and use of another mods consumable

[red flower]

consumables should be the same

[glossy dagger]

i need to do a joker trigger something after scoring a hand

like

before ending a hand but after all cards score

[red flower]

context.after

[glossy dagger]

thanks

[uneven drift]

Is there a way to make played cards shuffle back into your deck? Thinking about making a joker that causes the first hand you play each round to be shuffled back in, but idk 🤔

[glossy dagger]

Oops

i think balatro just cant use negative values

[uneven drift]

Considering making this an enhancement effect instead

[fading rivet]

check aikoshen

kyofu all back

[glossy dagger]

help

[fading rivet]

they can

[glossy dagger]

so... whats happening?

btw, already proved that negative values can exist, a friend has this joker in his jokerforge mod

[fading rivet]

your wrapping values in tables

[glossy dagger]

uhhh, i have to hard code them?

[fading rivet]

do mult = value and chips = value, not mult = {value} or {chips = value}

[glossy dagger]

oki doki

[fading rivet]

not what I said

[cinder elk]

SMODS.Joker {
    key = 'chaosquartet',
    atlas = 'StarterPackJokers',
    pos = { x = 6, y = 5 },

    rarity = 3,
    blueprint_compat = true,
    cost = 2,
    discovered = true,

    config = {
        extra = {
            xmult = 2, mult = 15
        }
    },

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        
        if context.cardarea == G.jokers and context.joker_main then
            if playing_card:is_suit("Hearts") then
                hearts = true
            end
            if playing_card:is_suit("Diamonds") then
                diamonds = true
            end
            if playing_card:is_suit("Clubs") then
                clubs = true
            end
            if playing_card:is_suit("Spades") then
                spades = true
            end
        end
        local all_suits = hearts and diamonds and clubs and spades
        if all_suits and context.poker_hands["Four of a Kind"]then
            return {
                    mult = card.ability.extra.mult,
                    Xmult = card.ability.extra.xmult
                }
        end
}

trying to make it so that it procs on four of a kind that is all 4 suits

[glossy dagger]

Something like this can work?

[fading rivet]

please don't hardcode

but yes thats correct

oh context.after won't score

use context.final_scoring_step

[fading rivet]

look into vremade flowerpot

[cinder elk]

you got it boss!

[glossy dagger]

thanks

Uhhhhh

[fading rivet]

oh its hand_chips

[glossy dagger]

hand_chips = 79 ?

[fading rivet]

no

the global is hand_chips

[lament cloud]

Question, I have a set of jokers i've made, and want to create a booster pack that only displays from those jokers- ( pool of 10 )

Is there a way to do this ToT, I tried making a global function to generate the card keys randomly and force them but- it works, but it doesn't account for the joker dupilcating so i want to ask if there's like a built in api for this or

[red flower]

you can do that with context.stay_flipped now, should be in the docs

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#how-do-i-create-a-poolset

[lament cloud]

ty-

[uneven drift]

👍 will look into it

[glossy dagger]

what is the hand_chips equivelant for mult?

because i think is not hand_mult

[fading rivet]

mult

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#how-do-i-get-the-current-hands-chipsmult

[glossy dagger]

thanks

sorry for asking, how i can see the amount of hands remaining?

probably is in a page but i cant find it

[red flower]

G.GAME.current_round.hands_left

[uneven drift]

got it "mostly" working thanks to you, but im debating whether I completely fix it (im trying to make it the first hand you play, but its only triggering on the first card) or if I should buff it so its every card you play

was already considering doing that

I mean I guess thats not necessarily a buff either, sometimes u wanna play trash to dig into ur good stuff

hmm

could also make it so cards with enhancements/editions shuffle, but not "useless" cards

hmmmm

this might be better as an enhancement after all

Actually, imma make it every card you play. I've decided 🔥

Anyway, thanks for the help!

Hikers best friend

[glossy dagger]

thanks

[lament agate]

How do you make initial release for your Mod in GitHub?

[torn thunder]

push the changes to the repo & then go to the repo on github & look where it says "create a new release"

[lament agate]

Thank You

[verbal torrent]

Man

It crashed

Unknownly

[naive coral]

is there anyway to make a custom card destruction effect, like how glass shatters instead of the burning(?) animation that cards normally have when destroyed?

[fading rivet]

how can I get a consumable object of another mod to hook its functions

something like this but SMODS.Consumables doens't exist

okay this problem has been solved

keep getting this crash now

nvm fixed it

needed to use SMODS.Spectral

[umbral spire]

How would a give a Joker (from my mod) "another life", and when it's sold/destroyed, it comes back (only a certain amount of times)

[daring fern]

if context.joker_type_destroyed and context.card == card then return {no_destroy = true} end

[umbral spire]

I've read that I can use {T:v_crystal_ball} to create a tooltip on text hover, but how can I create my own tooltip?

I didn't really get this

[red flower]

for a deck?

[umbral spire]

Joker.

[red flower]

that's not what you need then

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#how-do-i-add-a-custom-tooltip-to-the-side-of-the-description

[umbral spire]

how do i retrigger a joker?

[narrow prawn]

is there a way i can make an enhancement make a card score no chips at all?

[red flower]

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#retrigger_joker

[red flower]

either replace the base card like stone and set the bonus to 0 or hook Card.get_chip_bonus

[umbral spire]

so i put this at the top of my main file?

SMODS.current_mod.optional_features = {
    retrigger_joker = true
}

[brazen rock]

how do i make the description for a modded seal appear next to a consumable?
cant seem to figure it out
tried using SMODS.Seals.[seal] but that doesnt work

[silk latch]

Why isn't this properly scoring?

[brazen rock]

nevermind im being stupid yet again

[wintry solar]

context.joker_main not context.main

[wispy falcon]

How do I get the discovered consumables from the collection? Like, from my consumable type specifically

[umbral spire]

im trying to make a thing where it "revives" a joker if sold/destroyed, but the "Saved" message appears and THEN it destroys, so ig this happens too early, how can I make this happen later?

    if (context.destroy_card and context.destroy_card == card) or context.selling_self then
        if fv.walnut_stock and fv.walnut_stock > 0 then
            card.getting_saved = true 

            return {
                no_destroy = true,
                message = "Saved!",
                colour = G.C.FILTER,
                func = function()
                    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({ -- fx
                        trigger = 'immediate',
                        func = function() card:juice_up(0.8, 0.5); return true end
                    }))
                    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({ -- delay/update
                        trigger = 'after',
                        delay = 0.6,
                        func = function()
                            fv.walnut_stock = fv.walnut_stock - 1

                                message = "-1", 
                                colour = G.C.FILTER
                            })
                            
                            card.getting_saved = nil 

                            if fv.walnut_stock <= 0 then
                                fv.walnut_stock_flag = false
                                for i, row in ipairs(card.ability.extra_rows) do
                                    if row.key == "fv_walnut_stock" then
                                        table.remove(card.ability.extra_rows, i)
                                        break
                                    end
                                end
                            end
                            return true
                        end
                    }))
                end
            }
        end
    end

also, how can I add a rarity badge, like how Jokers have, to a consumable?

[mystic river]

appending centers to the info queue only works for centers; i think smods added an alternative solution for seals but i don't remember what it is
the vanilla way is like this

info_queue[#info_queue + 1] = { set = "Other", key = seal_key, specific_vars = seal_vars }

alternately i'm told appending G.P_SEALS[seal_key] works just like a center?

[wintry solar]

it does now, yeah

[glass crown]

how could i go about making it so that a certain enhancement doesnt appear in the collection?

[sturdy compass]

Add no_collection = true to your Enhancement

[glass crown]

thank you!

this creates one of each in the pool, why is that

its meant to create just 1 card from that pol

[red flower]

add context.main_eval

end of round is called a bunch of times

[brittle yacht]

oh yeah

[versed swan]

Does anyone have an example of using ref_table/ref_value in a UINode that doesn't define func or button?

I'm reading the UI guide and apparently ref_table can be passed to "UI nodes" (implying directly to the UI nodes themselves?)

nvm got it - the text in G.UIT.T can be ref_table[ref_value]

[elder rune]

Does set_badge exist for them? Id guess thats the easiest way afaik

[umbral spire]

I don't know how I'd use that.

[elder rune]

Well, create a badge with the rarity ig

[versed swan]

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

[versed swan]

and the object in G.UIT.O can be ref_table[ref_value], but this seems jank since the previous object isn't removed?

[red flower]

you need to :remove() it yeah, vanilla does this in a couple of places

[versed swan]

Does it? Trying to look around and I'm not finding anything

or maybe my regex is inadequate

[umbral spire]

.

[hard kayak]

Does set_badges also work with jokers?

[red flower]

I mean that vanilla removes the objects that way to replace them but I think it just replaces object directly

[red flower]

yeah

[versed swan]

ah, i see

[hard kayak]

Oh cool

Time to go back and update every single bunny joker to have the bunny badge through set_badges

[red flower]

ref_table is probably useful if you don't want to find the node itself to modify the object

[versed swan]

that's a good point

I went with the mindset that ref_table[ref_value] is dynamic so I was concerned with this implementation

[umbral spire]

-# bump

[brittle yacht]

how do i check if the player has high contrast cards enabled?

[faint yacht]

G.SETTINGS.colourblind_option?

[brittle yacht]

whats with the ?

is that what you think it might be

or am i an idiot

[faint yacht]

Inferring from a search through the game code itself.

[brittle yacht]

ah

[umbral spire]

-# hello..?

[brittle yacht]

hi!

[umbral spire]

-# i meant to bump my question but

[brittle yacht]

😄

what would be the if statement for a seal that does something

ONLY IF the card under the seal is a face card

[brittle yacht]

move the saved message after the function? or im stupid

[versed swan]

One second, I'll take a look

[umbral spire]

idk how i'd move message = there

[brittle yacht]

also i think i figured this out

[versed swan]

Try moving the stuff in func before and outside the return table entirely

[umbral spire]

what stuff?

[versed swan]

I'll show with a screenshot, but first can you edit that post so that the first ``` has a "lua" after it? for syntax highlighting

[umbral spire]

ok updated it

[versed swan]

(and also remove func since it's become empty)

func is called after the rest of the arguments in the return table are processed

[umbral spire]

like this?

[versed swan]

Yeah, this should destroy the card and then show the "Saved" message

[brittle yacht]

my uh

loc_vars #1# doesnt work on my seal

        return { vars = { card.ability.extra.mult } }
    end,```
```config = { extra = { mult = 5 }, },```

[primal robin]

card.ability.seal.extra.mult

[brittle yacht]

thank u

[versed swan]

...huh

[sour garden]

making a blueprint joker that copies the effect of the last purchased joker, but the console keeps getting spammed with Found effect table with no assigned repetitions during repetition check
do i need to return a repetition with this? the joker works fine otherwise

[cinder elk]

anyone know where i can find blank joker art of stuff like cavendish, flower pot, turtle bean, etc

[brittle yacht]

and if i want to do a check in an if statement about the card said seal is applied to?

it's not context.other_card:, right?

[brittle yacht]

i wish i could tell you

but i have no idea

[umbral spire]

I'm not sure if this changes anything but that stuff is used in cookielatro.calculate_building_bonuses()

the calculate function is here

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        local special_ret = cookielatro.calculate_building_bonuses(card, context)
        if special_ret then return special_ret end

        if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.play then
            local fv = card.ability.extra.flavored_cookie_bonuses
            local total_gain = card.ability.extra.chip_mod + (fv.a_chips_per or 0)
            card.ability.extra.chips = card.ability.extra.chips + total_gain
            
            return {
                message = localize('k_upgrade_ex'),
                colour = G.C.CHIPS,
                card = card
            }
        end

        if context.joker_main then
            local ret = { chips = card.ability.extra.chips }
            cookielatro.calculate_building_bonuses(card, context, ret)
            return ret
        end
    end

and the calculate_building_bonuses looks like

[red flower]

you dont need the or {} it is fine to return nil
the warning is because you are returning something in the repetition context

[brittle yacht]

bump

[red flower]

card

[brittle yacht]

im so smart

[versed swan]

oh wait

I'm beginning to realize that the destruction is probably not what you want

I'm fairly certain you're using the wrong context for destruction prevention, only this context and context.check_eternal uses no_destroy

but I'm not sure if it counts sold Jokers

[brittle yacht]

so like this???
if context.cardarea == G.play and context.main_scoring and context.card:is_face() then

[red flower]

card, by itself

[umbral spire]

wait what?

[versed swan]

context.destroy_card doesn't recognize no_destroy in the return table

but context.joker_type_destroyed does

[umbral spire]

so should i use this?

[versed swan]

Yeah, try it out

just make sure to use context.card for comparing

(and again, I don't know if it counts sold Jokers - in which case your implementation will be a bit more involved)

[umbral spire]

so this?

    if (context.joker_type_destroyed and context.card == card) or context.selling_self then

instead of

    if (context.destroy_card and context.destroy_card == card) or context.selling_self then

or remove the selling_self too?

[versed swan]

You might have to, it doesn't recognize no_destroy

(also my apologies for my uncertainty, I'm not familiar with this, I'm just reading off of documentation)

[umbral spire]

That's alright.

[umbral spire]

ah welp, it didnt change the outcome.

[versed swan]

damn

Yeah destruction prevention with selling will require some additional implementation on your end - I can't really help with that because I personally suck at working with the technical stuff of object calculation, but there might be someone else who could help with that

[umbral spire]

Ah ok, thanks for trying anyways.

[versed swan]

It's not impossible at all, but it'll require some hooks/patches (unless someone PRs Steamodded to add no_destroy for even more contexts)

[umbral spire]

That's unfortunate.

Atleast it's possible.

[naive coral]

how do i change the VFX that happens when a card is destroyed, like how glass shatters?

[glass crown]

how do you change the lang information of a card dynamically? i thought i knew how to do it but my implementation here doesnt seem to be working

[umbral spire]

Could anyone else help with this?
I'm trying to make a Joker "revive" after it's sold/destroyed,
I've tried [this](#💻・modding-dev message) code (but changed the if condition at the top to if context.destroy_card and context.destroy_card == card=)
But it resulted in [this](#💻・modding-dev message)
And the code is used [here](#💻・modding-dev message) if that helps.

[slim ferry]

you forgot the key = in the loc_vars

youre just returning an additional arbitrary value outside of vars currently

[glass crown]

ah icic okay

[umbral spire]

LFG!!

it works

i did

it

im so big brain

i did soem hook (Card:destroy & Card:start_dissolve) and then it did the right order (*Destroy*, "Saved!", "-1") but didnt regen the card afterwards, so i just manually regenerated it and boom

@versed swan ^

[versed swan]

That's awesome

[umbral spire]

Yea!! 2 hours of fixing wasn't tho, lol.

[versed swan]

It is what it is

tale as old as time, like 5 hours to solve 1 problem

[hard kayak]

in localize('k_your_string'), where does the 'k_your_string' go in the localization file (I don't know if you want reply pings or not but if you don't I won't do this again)

[slim ferry]

you would have a k_your_string = "something" under misc.dictionary

[hard kayak]

Is the "k" needed?

[fading rivet]

honestly i'm pretty sure no

[frosty rampart]

yea it's not

it's just a standard for... something in vanilla

[hard kayak]

oh

[frosty rampart]

i forget what it actually denotes

[frosty rampart]

i know _ex at the end means the message has an exclamation point at the end of it

[silk latch]

How do I keep fucking that up

[primal robin]

prefixing

[slim ferry]

its not even a standard lol

[fading rivet]

most of these are for consumable types

[slim ferry]

theres like

[hard kayak]

hell yeah, it works now

[slim ferry]

a bunch of random different letters before different stuff

[fading rivet]

which are deliberately not prefixed

[slim ferry]

if theres one thing i would want to know from thunk its what any of those letters means

[frosty rampart]

i did figure out one of them (although it's a suffix)

[primal robin]

b_ is button, ph_ is phrase, _ex is exclamation mark, _q is question mark

[slim ferry]

okay...

but then

[primal robin]

ml_ is multiline

[slim ferry]

what is a_ and k_ primarily

[primal robin]

a_ is for displaying common effects such as +mult, +chips, +hand size + hands etc

mainly for messages returned by calculate or card_eval_status_text

[wintry solar]

a_ is for add, no?

[umbral spire]

fixed my Card:start_dissolve to support "slicing" jokers like Madness/Dagger

local card_dissolve_ref = Card.start_dissolve
function Card:start_dissolve(dissolve_colours, skip_no_count, delay, quit_after)
    if self.ability and type(self.ability.extra) == 'table' and self.ability.extra.is_building then
        local fv = self.ability.extra.flavored_cookie_bonuses
        if fv and fv.walnut_stock and fv.walnut_stock > 0 then
            cookielatro.trigger_walnut_save(self)
            return
        end
    end
    return card_dissolve_ref(self, dissolve_colours, skip_no_count, delay, quit_after)
end

now im pretty sure it'll save the joker from any type of destruction

[primal robin]

I mean yes but not only

But a_ as add makes sense

[wintry solar]

I would guess it started as just add things and then thunk put some similar messages there and didn't want to change the prefix

[primal robin]

Assuming this exist, it started as-is, and ended as-is

so, does not really matter which prefix/suffix you use, kinda

But I still believe that you need prefix everything

[slim ferry]

i only do my mod prefix

bucky

[red flower]

if it's a new question i would prefer not

[hard kayak]

understood

I will try to keep reply pings off then

[versed swan]

Does anyone have any examples of how to useG.UIT.B? It feels quite unintuitive for me to use

[primal robin]

it's a box thish purpose is do nothing and just fill a space

you don't have to use it

I personally don't use it at all because R/C with minw/minh does the job pretty well

[versed swan]

I think it does a little more than that

[primal robin]

it's just invalid layour right there

[versed swan]

(text are wrapped in G.UIT.R)

[primal robin]

this happens when you mess with element which act as row and element which act as column

[versed swan]

So it's only intended to be used with G.UIT.Cs?

[primal robin]

idk what's it intented for, I dont use it because no point

[fading rivet]

treat box nodes like text nodes, they need to be wrapped in a row/column

[versed swan]

Ah

That makes sense

[primal robin]

technically they're columns

text and objects are columns too

[amber turret]

help plz

im trying to make a planet card-like consumable

Is this how you make a playing card destroy itself after scoring? because its not working and im not too sure why

[torn thunder]

well it should also be documented there

[near coral]

Can someone help me like fix this first page

It's meant to be untouched by the added blinds but that doesn't seem to be the case

The second page is meant to mirror the first page, just with my mod's counterparts

[red flower]

why is it missing blinds 😭

[near coral]

They're on the second page

[red flower]

do you take ownership of the vanilla ones

[near coral]

Is that what makes them scrambled

Or is that what locks them in place

[red flower]

that's what I'm assuming scrambles them because I've never seen that before

[near coral]

I don't know since I didn't do the coding but I can send you the build and you can check for yourself if that's fine

[red flower]

ok

[near coral]

It's a test build so if you find anything incomplete or broken beyond the blind order that's why

[weak grove]

How to set the blind req to a number? example: 10000 -> 1341

[red flower]

seems to be this part

i commented it out and it orders them correctly

[near coral]

So you fixed it?

[red flower]

no, i removed that

[near coral]

I meant fixed the blind order

For vanilla

Stakes

[red flower]

yes

[near coral]

I mean blinds

Not stakes

[red flower]

yes

[near coral]

[near coral]

Thanks, can you compress it and send it here since it's already done

[red flower]

i said it's not a fix 😭

it is fixed but i removed something to do it

[near coral]

Yes

[red flower]

idk if it's important for something else

[red flower]

tell this to your coder so they are aware and they can check where the issue in that code is exactly

[near coral]

I can just unzip the build I have now if it does break something

[red flower]

it will break this patch

[near coral]

What does that do exactly

The pool boss blinds

[red flower]

it makes a pool of some blinds

idk its your mod

[near coral]

Anyway so the issue did lie in taking ownership of the vanilla blinds

Is that correct

[red flower]

no

the mod doesn't do that actually

the issue is in the way that pool is made

[near coral]

Is it that the pool included the vanilla blinds in it

Or that it didn't

[weak grove]

@red flower reply to this when you have the time to help.

[red flower]

it includes vanilla blinds, but the way the blinds are injected into the pool is weird. i don't really have the energy to look deeper into it

[near coral]

So in short it's not supposed to include those?

Or is it strictly the weird pooling

[red flower]

please do not ping me for questions

with that said this is answered in the vanillaremade wiki

[red flower]

i think it is the weird pooling

[near coral]

Alright

[weak grove]

you could have just told me instead of chewing me out. jeez.

[near coral]

It was for future reference

[weak grove]

but still.

[near coral]

That wasn't even chewing you out it was a simple request

[red flower]

? i am telling you

it was a polite request lol

[near coral]

Given that reaction if they actually chewed you out you'd be crying on the floor lmao

[hard kayak]

How does one use #context.full_hand without it being a nil value

[faint yacht]

if context.full_hand and #context.full_hand

[hard kayak]

Okay so I figured that part out

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.stay_flipped and context.from_area == G.play then
            if context.full_hand and #context.full_hand == 1 then
                retain(card, context)
                return {
                    message = "wah"
                }
            end
        end
    end

This isn't returning the message tho

[red flower]

well i would actually say that's bad practice

you should check for the main context first

if that context has full_hand it wont be nil

[hard kayak]

joker_main?

[red flower]

no, stay_flipped is the main context

but it probably never has full_hand

[faint yacht]

Should probably mark the card in a context that has context.full_hand properly, then check for the same mark.

[red flower]

also what does retain do

[hard kayak]

puts the card back into hand after being played

that function works already

[red flower]

there's a return for that

[hard kayak]

There is something that does that already?

[red flower]

yes

[hard kayak]

dead~3

[faint yacht]

One of my enhancements uses it to go to the deck instead.

if context.stay_flipped and context.from_area == G.play then return { modify = { to_area = G.deck } } end

[hard kayak]

Oh I already did that then

local function retain(card, context)
            G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
                    func = function()
                        SMODS.calculate_effect ({ message = "Retained", colour = mythicalgradient }, context.other_card)
                        return true;
                    end
                }))
        return
            { modify = { to_area = G.hand } }
        end```

[red flower]

that doesn't return in calculate

[hard kayak]

it should?

[red flower]

in calculate you're only retuning a message

your function is returning and discarding the value

[hard kayak]

It's not returning the message though

[red flower]

yes it is?

[faint yacht]

...the stay_flipped context doesn't get to have full_hand, so...

[hard kayak]

Apparently I can't read my own code because it's literally in the return in other instances

[red flower]

ah ok

but yeah you should save the amount of cards in hand in another context like ali said

[faint yacht]

...mark said cards is what I said.

[hard kayak]

Just gotta figure out how to do that

[red flower]

same difference

[faint yacht]

if context.after and #context.full_hand == 1 then
  context.full_hand[1].ability.yoinky = true
end

if context.stay_flipped and context.from_area == G.play and context.other_card.ability.yoinky then
  context.other_card.ability.yoinky = false
  SMODS.calculate_effect ({ message = "Retained", colour = mythicalgradient }, context.other_card)
  return { modify = { to_area = G.hand } }
end

should/could work. 🐇

[hard kayak]

oh

It now works

Thank you for the assistance

I made retain a local function just because it's easier to just reference it instead of copying and pasting the whole thing over and over again

[faint yacht]

return retain(card, context) then.

[hard kayak]

Exactly what I have been doing

except for the return part

because of course I can't read

[faint yacht]

Gets everyone from time to time.

[hard kayak]

The bnuy works

Also, double-sided is stoopid

[hard kayak]

Yes there is the aether bunny

[versed swan]

so get this: this was not working for me because I disabled shadows in options

[hard kayak]

Incredible

[versed swan]

Anyways, decided to read UI source code and determine actual properties of config values

[keen atlas]

theres a lot more, but kinda less documented https://github.com/frostice482/balatro-lsp/blob/master/engine/ui.lua#L186

[versed swan]

ah

wish i knew abt this sooner

[willow nimbus]

Does anybody know how to get a list of nodes inside a UI element? I'm referencing an element with get_uie_by_id but I'm not sure how I can reference the nodes

element.nodes unsurprisingly doesn't work

[gilded blaze]

it's element.children

what you see with nodes are simply prototype tables to tell the element how to construct itself

[willow nimbus]

Ohhhhh

That makes a lot more sense actually

Thanks so much

[gilded blaze]

so instead of t.nodes[1].nodes[2], it's element.children[1].children[2]

[willow nimbus]

I see

thanks again, that's a big help

[glass scaffold]

So do I just chuck in another message = localize to have both the chips and mult or..?

[wintry solar]

Make them mult = and chips = and remove the message entirely

[glass scaffold]

Didn't know I could do that, that's so much easier.

[hard kayak]

Only need to have that if you want a custom message over the default message

[karmic prism]

How do I a keep a new custom suit from being included in base game decks

[willow nimbus]

Anybody know if UI text elements are exempt from get_uie_by_id()? I have a row element which I can access with the function, but trying to do it on a text element just doesn’t return anything

i get an element returned from "local dots," but not from "local cltxt"

[fading rivet]

no they shouldn't be

hmm

okay maybe they might then idk

I always wrap my text elements in rows or columns

[umbral spire]

hihi ^u^ i'm back to trying to get Opus Magnum implemented

i have this code so far:

it's meant to render a canvas with a bunch of red lines, as a test

however, the canvas isn't showing up in my menu

doing ambitious things like this always leads to me learning how to make games in new game engines :3

i learned Unity from KTaNE modding, eg

[whole lava]

how can i make a joker that swaps chips and mult?

[slim ferry]

add swap = true to the return table

[whole lava]

can it swaps then do the xchips at the same return table?

[slim ferry]

you can

[whole lava]

ok thanks for that

[slim ferry]

if you want specifically xchips after, you would need to do something like return { swap = true, extra = { xchips = ... } }

[karmic prism]

How do I a keep a new custom suit from being included in base game decks like red deck and blue deck?

[subtle hawk]

I have a set of cards that I'm currently transferring into their own Center, however there's this blinding cyan badge and I have not a single idea where it's coming from. I have to assume that it's some kind of smods thing?

Ohholyshit
Shinku sorry for pinging a message from 2025 but like did you figure that out?

[wooden nexus]

I wish

I can send you what i got if you wish to look with me

I wanted to do fillers in Parallel Update but due to lack of knowledge and help, it was pretty much fruitless lol

[subtle hawk]

Wait I literally have my other mod that has a custom Center and doesn't have a blinding cyan badge

Why am I not looking there

[wooden nexus]

Hm?

Maybe i should try and bring Fillers back

[red flower]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Rank-and-SMODS.Suit#utility-pools-and-randomness

[wooden nexus]

Yoinking that, I'll need that for BalatroOBV

I got a wave of motivation

[subtle hawk]

Yeah okay uh
Having a set_card_type_badge(self, card, badges) function seems to get rid of the blinding cyan one

[red flower]

i was about to say lol

[wooden nexus]

Alright cool. Now i just need to figure out how to add a card that can go into the joker slots without actually counting as a joker but counts as a filler

[red flower]

what do you mean by not counting as a joker

[torn thunder]

,,, would that block a joker slot whilst also synergizing with stencil,?

[wooden nexus]

So you know in decks of cards you have your standard 52 cards, the jokers, and then the extra cards

aka the filler cards

[wooden nexus]

well no. I just want to keep them in the same slot area

[twin fiber]

IIRC the spacecraft from wormhole mod behave like this if you're willing to find where they are in the code https://github.com/Balatro-Potato-Patch/Wormhole/tree/main

[red flower]

that's really hard if you don't want them to count as being in the area

[red flower]

yeah i made that part lol

[twin fiber]

:O

[red flower]

i was about to suggest that if it was the same idea but it doesn't seem like it

the spaceship is still a joker in the area

[wooden nexus]

So it'd increase the filler slot but not the joker slot. I gotta look and see what i did in the older version

That and see if it still works with the newest smods

Seems like I got kinda far?

Okay I see the issue already

It has no slot to go to

[red flower]

if you don't mind them still being treated as they are in the area you can just make them take 0 slots with the smods config and then just increase the number for the display

[wooden nexus]

I think

uh... lemme see something rq

idk if it's debug plus or Parallel Update being like this rn

[wooden nexus]

Can’t tell

Oh well

[hard kayak]

Is there a way to make it so a joker can be taken always, even if you wouldn't have room for it otherwise?

[faint yacht]

Hook G.FUNCS.check_for_buy_space and return true or make Joker not require a slot by having extra_slots_used defined as -1 in config.

[hard kayak]

How would you hook that

(I've never made a hook before)

[faint yacht]

local checkref = G.FUNCS.check_for_buy_space
function G.FUNCS.check_for_buy_space(card)
  -- put your own condition here first.
  return checkref(card)
end

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

[umbral spire]

I'm trying to make a tag, that, when applied adds a free consumable (of a specific set) of Rare (or specific) rarity from my mod. But, right now it's just giving me any rarity?
My consumable looks like:

SMODS.Consumable {
    key = "milk_chocolate_cookie",
    set = "cl_cookie",
    atlas = "flavored_cookies",
    pos = { x = 2, y = 1 },
    rarity = 2,
    weight = 0.25,

and I create the card like this

        local card = SMODS.create_card {
            set = "cl_cookie",
            area = context.area,
            skip_materialize = true,
            key_append = "cookie_tag_" .. rarity_name,
            rarity = rarity_name, 
        }

Why isn't it working..?

[hard kayak]

So would I just put if SMODS.find_card('joker') then? or

[umbral spire]

I just tried a different way by creating a list of every cookie that matches the rarity i want, then picking one at random (looping throughSMODS.Centers, and i even tried G.P_CENTERS too) but that didn't work either? it just hit the safeguard here..

        local valid_cookies = {}
        for k, v in pairs(SMODS.Centers) do
            if v.set == "cl_cookie" and v.rarity == rarity_num then
                table.insert(valid_cookies, k)
            end
        end
        --safeguard
        if #valid_cookies == 0 then 
            print('safeguard hit!') 
            return
        end

Can someone help with this?

[faint yacht]

if SMODS.find_card('yourcardhere') then return true end
return checkref(card) -- if previous condition does not pass, execute original function.

[umbral spire]

-# anyone..?

[hard kayak]

Would this just go at the beginning of the lua file

[umbral spire]

I'm pretty sure it'd go in the hook.

[hard kayak]

I meant the hook itself

[umbral spire]

Yeah, I think something like this should work.

local checkref = G.FUNCS.check_for_buy_space
function G.FUNCS.check_for_buy_space(card)
  if SMODS.find_card('yourcardhere') then return true end
  return checkref(card)
end

[hard kayak]

got it

[umbral spire]

Ready your Jokers, prepare for @ Sock's big message. /silly

[twin fiber]

i'm not at a computer where i could test, but two things come to mind:

1. (since it was not provided in the snippet) is rarity specified correctly? should be a string like "Rare"
2. i was reading the SMODS.create_card code and it seems it outsources the bulk of the code to the vanilla create_card function, which i would not be surprised if it didn't handle consumable rarities correctly
   sorry it's not very definitive advice

1. rarity is right here. (image below)
2. I don't quite get what you mean.

[twin fiber]

rarity_name...?

[umbral spire]

?

[twin fiber]

rarity in my message refers to the key, in rarity = rarity_name in the creation snippet you posted, sorry i was unclear

[umbral spire]

oh

does it have to be a string tho?

Jokers work fine with it being a number.

[twin fiber]

yes it could also be a number but i assumed it was a string since you were using .., i forgot lua allows concatenation with strings and numbers. both should work fine

[umbral spire]

ah. so then that's not it

oh! i managed to fix it lol

[twin fiber]

oh! what was the solution!

[slim ferry]

if youre using rarities for a consumable type they have to be defined as a new rarity iirc? so that automatically means the vanilla rarity numbers dont work

[umbral spire]

i just manually created a rarity pool and then used a loop to find the actual keys, then just create a random desired one within the found keys

-# whoops my msg took forever to send lol

[umbral spire]

oh probably why it wasnt working

[twin fiber]

nw! that's interesting, seems like a good fix :3 i'm curious to see if eris's solution works too, that sounds elegant

[umbral spire]

ill try that

[umbral spire]

oh it works.!
how would i add a badge for the rarity, like Jokers do?

[slim ferry]

you probably want to look at whatever code calls set_badges or whatever for a card and do something with that ig

or use extend and create a default set_card_type_badges for the consumable type which adds the consumable type and rarity badges

[long sun]

i'm getting "rendering" printed every frame, but my Canvas doesn't seem to be rendering

why must i turn my game into a house of LIES

[umbral spire]

i wanna loop through my consumables, does this not exist? it crashes on SMODS.Consumables as nil, what's the table ?

for _, v in pairs(SMODS.Consumables) do
    if v.set == "cl_cookie" then

[slim ferry]

all center instances are stored in SMODS.Centers

[umbral spire]

o

[brittle yacht]

what context would i use to check if a hand has ONLY a certain suit

[long sun]

breakthrough: rendering my canvas to a texture shows it's definitely there

[brittle yacht]

woah

[umbral spire]

so how would i check if it's a consumable?
(if v is table[loop_index])

[slim ferry]

your current check just works

[umbral spire]

oh

[long sun]

you'd loop through the hand, and check if each card is the suit

there's no specific context for it

[brittle yacht]

ohhh

ight i got that

[long sun]

hmm so it seems the issue is, the canvassprite isn't rendering in the UI

i don't know how to fix that

[umbral spire]

how do i color the badge?

oh

nvm

[brittle yacht]

wait so i have the loop

but i dont think i did it right

            for i = 1, #context.scoring_hand do
                if context.other_card:is_suit(card.ability.extra.suit) then
                    hearts_check = true
                    break
                end
            end```

i havent teted

i need to add return aswel

[long sun]

if not context.scoring_hand[i]:is_suit(card.ability.extra.suit) then

and then do the effect if hearts_check is false

[lyric wadi]

how do you make a pool of all available enhancement, seals, and edition? (including modded ones)

like having a joker count modded enhancements along with vanilla without specifically doing crossmod

[umbral spire]

is there any website that lets you preview balatro descriptions?
Like

{
"{C:attention}Attention!",
"Normal Text"
}

[uneven drift]

I have a joker that randomly applies enhancements and it works with modded enhancements off SMODS.poll_enhancement

I'm not sure how you filter out to only vanilla enhancements or modded enhancements with that, specifically. But by default if its an enhancement, it'll grab it

Not sure if thats what ur asking for

[umbral spire]

-# you should probably reply/ping them.

[uneven drift]

^ what I said

[lyric wadi]

no i just want to have a pool that have every enhancement, seals, and edition in them

like how driver's license count cards with enhancements you have

[uneven drift]

oh

[long sun]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lyric wadi]

i want to have that kind of effect but for it to also count modded enhancement

[long sun]

I GOT IT OMG

[uneven drift]

something like this maybe?

loop the deck and see for each card if thats true

or this

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

[lyric wadi]

yeah that's my problem tho

they need the key of the enhancement to check for

meaning that if i want to loop through the cards and count the enhancements, i need to have a list containing the key of every enhancements available

[uneven drift]

lemme see how drivers license does it

[lyric wadi]

i can do that with the vanilla stuff, the pool is limited

[stiff locust]

you can just check if the card has no enhancement

if it doesn't have no enhancement, then it has an enhancement

[uneven drift]

does get_enhancements only do vanilla stuff?

[lyric wadi]

however my inquiry is how to include modded enhancement should the player have a mod that adds some

[lyric wadi]

yeah but that doesnt tell me what enhancement it has

[stiff locust]

oh you need to know more about the enhancement iself

i believe the playing cards have a table on their object

where it stores enhancement and edition data so you can see like, if a modded edition/enhancement gives xmult or xchips or such

[slim ferry]

no it gets all enhancements on a card

[umbral spire]

how do i make a color gradient in G.C.MY_COLOR ?

[lyric wadi]

and also to bring it back, this also should include seals and editions

and thus modded seals and editions

[stiff locust]

smods.gradient

[slim ferry]

G.C.something = SMODS.Gradient { .......

[lyric wadi]

i could also just cop out and be one of those mods that have no support for modded enhancement or editions from other mods

and thus remain unpopular in modpack compilations as adding my mod would not provide content synergy value

[slim ferry]

how is your effect actually different from drivers license code wise for enhancements

because im reading it and it seems like you can just use the same code

[stiff locust]

itd better be well optimised

drivers license checks it on every single frame

it's so excessive

[slim ferry]

well

vanillaremade

[stiff locust]

does vanillaremade fix stuff like that

[slim ferry]

actual vanilla code is Not Good for reference

[slim ferry]

yes thats like half of the point

vanilla but actually usable as a reference for good practices

[lyric wadi]

i want to iterate through the played hand and get the key of every enhancement, seal, and edition each card have, and count the tally for each enhancement, seal, and edition individually

[slim ferry]

SMODS.get_enhancements returns a table of enhancement_key = true for each enhancement it has

so just iterate over it and copy the enhancements into another table

[lyric wadi]

is the key returned a string or a centre

[long sun]

yes i wanted it to go under the UI thank you

[lyric wadi]

user outerface

does SMODS have a get_seals and get_edition method as well or are those different

[brittle yacht]

how do i damage a blind by a percentage

[lyric wadi]

it doesnt appear to have get_seals and get_edition

hence my need for a pool of those

to iterate against

[torn thunder]

p sure smods supports blind size shrinkage

[brittle yacht]

nvm i figured it out

[glossy dagger]

Someone knows how to check if a card held in hand is an ace?

[primal robin]

Salty ghost trying make canvassprite render so hard

[torn thunder]

card:get_id() == 14

[long sun]

yeahhhh see the problem is

no matter how high i set my drawstep's order, it renders under the UI

[primal robin]

Are you using a card to render this thing on it?

[long sun]

no

well the bounding box is fine... it's just that issue

[primal robin]

Draw thing by using func is not a good idea because this callbacks fire in update stage, draw goes after

[long sun]

what should i do, then?

[primal robin]

What you can do by using func hook element's draw function to draw thing, that's it

G.FUNCS.setup_transmut = function(e)
  e.config.func = nil
  local old_draw = e.draw_self
  function e:draw_self(...)
    old_draw(self, ...)
    -- draw the thing here
  end
end

[long sun]

i'll give that a go ^u^

two seconds

[glossy dagger]

is a context?

[long sun]

where do i call this function?

ah wait

i'm silly

[torn thunder]

context.individual and context.cardarea == G.hand

[long sun]

well that did... something

it's moving, too ^^:;; weird

G.FUNCS.setup_transmutation_engine_rend = function(e)
  e.config.func = nil
  local draw_self_ref = e.draw_self
  function e:draw_self(...)
    draw_self_ref(self, ...)

    local canvas = e.config.object.canvas
    canvas:renderTo(function()
      love.graphics.clear(0, 0, 0, 0)
      love.graphics.setColor(1, 0, 0, 1)
      love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 0, 0, 10, 10)
      love.graphics.setColor(0, 1, 0, 1)
      love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 0, 0, 20, 20)
      love.graphics.setColor(0, 0, 1, 1)
      love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 0, 0, 30, 30)
    end)

    if G.OVERLAY_MENU then
      local obj = G.OVERLAY_MENU:get_UIE_by_ID("opusm_trans_canvas_obj")
      if obj then
        love.graphics.push()
        love.graphics.origin()
        G.opusm_transmutation_engine_sprite:draw_from(obj)
        G.opusm_transmutation_engine_sprite.canvas:renderTo(love.graphics.clear, 0, 0, 0, 0)
        love.graphics.pop()
      end
    end
  end
end```

giving up for tonight 😭

[tidal hemlock]

so i've seen many people have this issue
how does one fix this

i have them defined

[lyric wadi]

is get_seal real

im backreading and im confused

does it exist

[torn thunder]

first of all dont keep all the vremade stuff there that's a bad idea
second of all, is your mod prefix correct and the key to your object also correct?

[tidal hemlock]

i think so

[torn thunder]

could you show the definitions (i.e. your metadata and the SMODS.Consumable etc for the paradox

[slim ferry]

consumable type keys arent prefixed by default

so thats probably the issue

[tidal hemlock]

ah yeah

nvm

[primal robin]

what a crazy font + no colors

[tidal hemlock]

im using notepad shut up

fixed the crash and still the loc doesnt wanna work

[slim ferry]

bro is using notepad

[red flower]

yeah

[tidal hemlock]

looking at paperback's loc and its defined exactly the same way i did

[slim ferry]

the crash is because you are using the wrong key for a consumable's set

[tidal hemlock]

yeah i already figured that out

still cant actually get it to show up though, its just ERROR

[hard kayak]

I just checked now, it doesn't work in booster packs

[lyric wadi]

uh oh

what does this mean

[faint yacht]

Probably need to hook Card:check_use() too.

[hard kayak]

Same thing?

[tidal hemlock]

just noticed this lol

[glossy dagger]

Idk how to add it to this list of "and not", always that i add it it crashes or the joker stops working

[faint yacht]

Same check, probably, yeah.

[slim ferry]

did you save something in G.GAME that cant be saved

[hard kayak]

Do I put it in checkref too or do I make a second checkref

[faint yacht]

Separate local

local chkuseref = Card.check_use
function Card:check_use()
  -- add condition here with 'return true'
  return chkuseref(self)
end

[hard kayak]

uhh

Packs and Vouchers can't be redeemed/opened and all jokers can be bought, ignoring space requirements

I don't think that's supposed to happen

[faint yacht]

Should check if you are in a Booster Pack, too... SMODS.OPENED_BOOSTER.

[hard kayak]

Well I can't open a booster pack anymore so

[faint yacht]

As in, if SMODS.OPENED_BOOSTER and next(SMODS.find_card('aeiou')) then return true end.

[hard kayak]

Okay well now I'm in the booster pack

but I still can't select the card

Also, I can still buy everything in the shop, regardless of whether I have room or not

[glossy dagger]

someone can help me?-

[faint yacht]

ough, not quite sure much then-

[keen totem]

is there a variable message key for losing XMult

[hard kayak]

You probably have to manually make one if there isn't one

[hard kayak]

I'm just gonna remove both of them because they are causing... problematic behaviour

[keen totem]

found one

in Ramen, its shown as "a_xmult_minus"

[glossy dagger]

i have a joker that looses Xmult and it works

[hard kayak]

Good to know

[glossy dagger]

just put the variable

[glossy dagger]

i just forgot about ramen

like, the most forgetable joker to me

[keen totem]

real

ramen is so unbelievably useless

base X2 Mult and it loses value

if it were common, i could see it being viable, but its uncommon

[glossy dagger]

even seeing double or campfire are more recognizable, even if you consider them to be bad

[keen totem]

campfire can be the main scoring if you build towards it

its not that bad, just niche

[glossy dagger]

infinite money basically

and seeing double i think works with smeared

so if you dont have xMult, can work

but... back in the topic

idk how to recognize cards as aces

[lyric wadi]

okay so get_seal returns the key of the seal

and card.seal returns the name of the seal

that's one third of the not working functionalities sorted

get_edition definitely doesn't exist in the sense that it doesn't return what edition the card has

[tidal hemlock]

    b_celestin_paradox_cards = "Paradox Cards",
    k_celestin_paradox = "Paradox",
        },
        labels = {
        celestin_paradox = "Paradox",
        },```
```SMODS.Atlas({
    key = "paradox",
    path = "paradox.png",
    px = 71,
    py = 95
})
SMODS.ConsumableType {
    key = 'paradox',
    default = 'c_celestin_laplace',
    primary_colour = HEX('84ffe8'),
    secondary_colour = HEX('D85D55'),
    collection_rows = { 6, 6 },
    shop_rate = 3
}
SMODS.Consumable {
    key = 'laplace',
    set = 'paradox',
    atlas = 'paradox',
    pos = { x = 0, y = 0 },
    config = { max_highlighted = 3, suit_conv = 'celestin_Vortexes' },
    loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card)
        return { vars = { card.ability.max_highlighted, localize(card.ability.suit_conv, 'suits_plural'), colours = { G.C.SUITS[card.ability.suit_conv] } } }
    end,
}```
still showing ERROR and idk why

[slim ferry]

you

its

its just paradox

not celestin_paradox

[glossy dagger]

uhhh, sorry for being annoying with this but

i still cant make the joker dont trigger if aces are held in hand

[torn thunder]

ok i can help w that

local ace_found = false;
for _, _card in ipairs(G.hand.cards) do
  if _card:get_id() == 14 then
    ace_found = true;
  end
end

if not ace_found then
  -- trigger
end

put this in your context and put the actual joker trigger where the comment is

if its a regular joker trigger, should go in context.joker_main

[glossy dagger]

i think i will send the code because the joker in reality has various "if not"

calculate = function(self, card, context)
if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.hand and not context.other_card:is_face() and not context.other_card.debuff and not context.end_of_round then
return {chips = context.other_card.base.nominal * 2}
end

the second like is really long-

[torn thunder]

ok just tell me the joker effect

[glossy dagger]

numbered cards (2 to 10) give the double of their value as chips

[torn thunder]

the full effect

is it that in hand?

[glossy dagger]

yeah

i forgor

Numbered cards held in hand

why i forgot like... the whole joker trigger

[keen totem]

is there a way to speed up a set of effects that use SMODS.upgrade_poker_hands
i have an effect that calls SMODS.upgrade_poker_hands in context.using_consumeable, but it doesn't lower the delay as more and more effects happen, causing it to take pretty long to finish the animation

[torn thunder]

calculate = function(self, card, context)
  if context.individual and context.cardarea == G.hand and not context.end_of_round then
    if card:get_id() > 1 and card:get_id() < 11 then
      return { chips = card:get_id() * 2 }
    end
  end
end

there

that gives double their rank

if u want their nominal u can just change the return to

[glossy dagger]

thanks

[torn thunder]

return { chips = card.base.nominal * 2 }

oops i typo'd

there now its good

[glossy dagger]

thanks

[keen totem]

is a nominal the base +chips that a card of a certain rank gets?

[glossy dagger]

yeah

[faint yacht]

Used in Card:get_chip_bonus, yeah.

[keen totem]

something else that im wondering about is how you would add to a card's chip bonus with an enhancement

like how it says "+X extra chips" in the description when its been changed by either Bonus Card or Hiker

[glass crown]

how would i go about changing the name that shows of the current hand? i tried just copying the code from yahimod's "Good Kitty" joker but it doesnt seem to be working for me 🤔

[keen totem]

those two's effects stack into one description piece, but i dont know how to make a +chips effect stack into that description piece as well

[keen totem]

like changing the name of a poker hand here?

[faint yacht]

So increase the +Chips of an Ace directly instead of adding the +X extra Chips?

[glass crown]

yes!

[keen totem]

i want the description to stack into the same description part as Hiker and Bonus Card

like instead of it showing +15 extra chips (from my enhancement) and +20 extra chips (from Hiker), it just says +35 extra chips

[keen totem]

in context.evaluate_poker_hand, do
return { replace_display_name = "ABCDE" } with ABCDE being what you want it to say

[faint yacht]

...that might involve some stuff in generate_card_ui or SMODS.localize_perma_bonuses...

[keen totem]

where would i find info about localize_perma_bonuses

[faint yacht]

src/utils.lua

[keen totem]

no documentation?

[red flower]

no

it looks pretty straightfoward to me tho

[keen totem]

yea

i assume that vremade doesn't delve into how the base game actually combines Hiker and Bonus Card's descriptions

[glass crown]

that does work, however, im having a very specific problem:
the joker that ive made that applies this name-changing effect also levels up the hand type its changing the name of when played, and the level up changes the hand name back to normal

[red flower]

the game just adds both by default

[keen totem]

yea idk how to help with that tbh

[keen totem]

is there a way to actually use this in my enhancement's description

[red flower]

can you send the code it might be a bug

[red flower]

what does it do

[keen totem]

+15 extra chips

in terms of chips buffs

[red flower]

have you tried using bonus in the config

[keen totem]

it already uses bonus

[red flower]

then it should work the same afaik

let me test

[glass crown]

        if context.evaluate_poker_hand then
            return {replace_display_name = "ABCDE"}
        end

        if context.before and next(context.poker_hands[card.ability.extra.type1]) then
            level_up_hand_chips(card, card.ability.extra.type1, false, 2)
            level_up_hand_chips(card, card.ability.extra.type2, true, 2)
        end
        if context.before and next(context.poker_hands[card.ability.extra.type2]) then
            level_up_hand_chips(card, card.ability.extra.type1, true, 2)
            level_up_hand_chips(card, card.ability.extra.type2, false, 2)
        end

and the function

function level_up_hand_chips(card, hand, instant, amount)
    amount = amount or 1
    SMODS.upgrade_poker_hands({
        hands = hand,
        func = function(base, hand, parameter)
            return base + G.GAME.hands[hand]['l_' .. parameter] * amount
        end,
        from = card,
        instant = instant,
        parameters = {"chips"}
    })
    return {replace_display_name = "ABCDE"}
end

i had it changing specifically for a certain hand type before but for testing purposes i just replaced the display name for all of them

also ignore the return at the bottom of the function i was throwing anything i could at the problem

[keen totem]

what would i put in my enhancement's description in order to have the game put the bonus in the description though

[wary gyro]

I'm trying to make a joker that triggers all cards held in hand and this is the current code:

    calculate = function(self, card, context)
        if context.individual
            and context.cardarea == G.hand
            and context.other_card
            and not context.other_card.debuff then
            local bonus = FB.num(context.other_card:get_chip_bonus(), 0)
            if bonus ~= 0 then
                return {
                    chips = bonus,
                    colour = G.C.CHIPS,
                    card = context.other_card
                }
            end
        end
    end

and FB.num is:

FB.num = FB.num or function(value, fallback)
    fallback = fallback or 0
    if type(value) == 'number' then return value end
    if type(value) == 'table' then
        if type(value.to_number) == 'function' then
            local ok, n = pcall(function() return value:to_number() end)
            if ok and type(n) == 'number' then return n end
        end
        if type(value.toNumber) == 'function' then
            local ok, n = pcall(function() return value:toNumber() end)
            if ok and type(n) == 'number' then return n end
        end
    end
    return fallback
end

the problem is that it triggers even after scoring

spent over an hour debugging and fixing to no avail

[keen totem]

this is what it does with hiker

["m_CGN_Disease"] = {
                ["name"] = "Disease Card",
                ["text"] = {
                    "{C:chips}+#1#{} extra chips",
                    "{C:mult}+#2#{} Mult",
                    "Before a {C:attention}played hand{} scores, scoring {C:attention}Disease Cards{}",
                    "{C:green}spread{} to played and unenhanced cards",
                },
            },

this is the localization

SMODS.Enhancement{
    key = "Disease",
    atlas = "Disease",
    pos = {x = 0, y = 0},
    config = { bonus = 15,
        mult = 2,
        extra = {}
    },
    loc_vars = function(self,info_queue,card)
        return {vars = {card.ability.bonus,
        card.ability.mult
    }}
    end,
    calculate = function(self,card,context)
        
    end
}

this is the enhancement

[keen totem]

it had 5 hiker triggers, meaning that +25 is exclusively Hiker

[tidal hemlock]

nope

[slim ferry]

Make sure those localization categories are all actually inside of misc

[tidal hemlock]

they are

[slim ferry]

Make sure misc isnt inside of something else (descriptions)

[glass crown]

this wouldnt even work for my purposes because i was wanting to put a color code in the hand name and that doesnt seem to work

[red flower]

ah i see, smods explicitly removes the chips from there

the workaround should be easy give me a sec

[tidal hemlock]

mind if i send over the loc so you can check, using vremade as placeholders makes the file a little longer than i'd like

plus i cant count brackets

[slim ferry]

im on mobile so i cant really look at it properly

[tidal hemlock]

ah

i think its outside because misc has 4 brackets before it instead of the 2 im seeing everywhere else

[red flower]

generate_ui = function(self, info_queue, card, desc_nodes, specific_vars, full_UI_table)
    if specific_vars and specific_vars.nominal_chips and not self.replace_base_card then
        localize { type = 'other', key = 'card_chips', nodes = desc_nodes, vars = { specific_vars.nominal_chips } }
    end
    SMODS.Enhancement.super.generate_ui(self, info_queue, card, desc_nodes, specific_vars, full_UI_table)
    if specific_vars and specific_vars.bonus_chips then
        localize { type = 'other', key = 'card_extra_chips', nodes = desc_nodes, vars = { SMODS.signed(specific_vars.bonus_chips) } }
    end
    SMODS.localize_perma_bonuses(specific_vars, desc_nodes)
end

this in the enhancement should work

and you need to remove the chips from your description

[keen totem]

alr

[keen totem]

it works, ty

although, the +x extra chips shows up after my enhancement's description

not sure if theres a way to fix that or not

[red flower]

try putting the SMODS.Enhancement.super.generate_ui after the if

[keen totem]

generate_ui = function(self, info_queue, card, desc_nodes, specific_vars, full_UI_table)
        if specific_vars and specific_vars.nominal_chips and not self.replace_base_card then
            localize { type = 'other', key = 'card_chips', nodes = desc_nodes, vars = { specific_vars.nominal_chips } }
        end
        if specific_vars and specific_vars.bonus_chips then
            localize { type = 'other', key = 'card_extra_chips', nodes = desc_nodes, vars = { SMODS.signed(specific_vars.bonus_chips) } }
        end
        SMODS.Enhancement.super.generate_ui(self, info_queue, card, desc_nodes, specific_vars, full_UI_table)
        SMODS.localize_perma_bonuses(specific_vars, desc_nodes)
    end

so this?

[red flower]

yes

[keen totem]

still shows up after

its fine tho

also im realizing that i have to do this for +mult too once i add a perma +mult effect

[red flower]

that doesnt have any code for it in smods

so it might just work directly

[keen totem]

right, cause this only needs a workaround because smods created the issue to begin with

and smods doesnt do that for perma +mult

[hard kayak]

For the life of me I can't figure out why this isn't working

local gfcfbs = G.FUNCS.check_for_buy_space
G.FUNCS.check_for_buy_space = function(card)
    if
        (card.ability and card.ability.spaceless == 'yes')
    then
        return true
    end
    return gfcfbs(card)
end

It either, does nothing, makes every card selectable, or crashes the game

[red flower]

yeah the name thing is a bug, but the color code is not something the api lets you do yet

[keen totem]

N' do you think that it'll be possible to get the +extra chips to show up before the description?

cause if its possible I do want to try to get it working, but i wouldn't be surprised if its not possible

[red flower]

i mean everything is possible

with the magic of computers

[red flower]

is it passing the condition

is card.ability.spaceless == 'yes'

[hard kayak]

it should be

[red flower]

have you added a print to see

[hard kayak]

where would I add the print

[red flower]

before the if

print(card.ability.spaceless)

[hard kayak]

nil

It's printing nil

[red flower]

well then its not yes

also if you want it to take no space there's an smods feature for that

[hard kayak]

there is?

[red flower]

config = { extra_slots_used = -1 }

[hard kayak]

Doesn't that create a tooltip though

or an info queue

[red flower]

yes

[hard kayak]

I would prefer not having that, is there a way to hide that?

[red flower]

i dont think so

[hard kayak]

blegh

how would I pass the condition exactly?

[red flower]

how are you setting card.ability.spaceless

[hard kayak]

In the same place where you give the key, cost and calculate within SMODS.Joker

[red flower]

config = { spaceless = 'yes' }

[primal robin]

why yes as a string tho

[red flower]

or card.config.center.spaceless == 'yes' in the if

[hard kayak]

fucking

Cryptid I swear I am going to strangle you to death for being impossible to understand

[primal robin]

Cryptid is one of the worst sources for code

[red flower]

yeah

[primal robin]

Find something better, anything

[red flower]

everyone using cryptid is one of the reasons i made vremade

[primal robin]

Btw is Ruby working on Cryptid 2 or no one knows?

[hard kayak]

Ruby is

It's just very slow

[primal robin]

I see

[hard kayak]

okay so I can now buy from the shop

Now... I also need booster packs too

local csc = G.FUNCS.can_select_card
G.FUNCS.can_select_card = function(card)
    if
        (card.config.center.spaceless == 'yes')
    then
        return true
    end
    return csc(card)
end```
This doesn't work because the game crashes for 'center' being a nil value, but including card.config.center, makes it so it doesn't work

[red flower]

can_select_card doesnt return a boolean, it changes the button

this is my thing for that

basically you need
e.config.colour = G.C.GREEN
e.config.button = 'use_card'

[hard kayak]

So I just add it to this?

[red flower]

yeah

[hard kayak]

local csc = G.FUNCS.can_select_card
G.FUNCS.can_select_card = function(card)
    if
        (card.config.center and card.config.center.spaceless == 'yes')
    then
        e.config.colour = G.C.GREEN
        e.config.button = 'use_card' 
    end
    return csc(card)
end```
So it's like this now, but it still doesn't work

oh wait

does it have to be function(e)

[red flower]

yes

or well, replace e for card but its not a card

[primal robin]

card is e.config.ref_table

[hard kayak]

So replace card with e.config.ref_table?

[primal robin]

G.FUNCS.can_select_card = function(e)
    local card = e.config.ref_table
    -- your code with no changes
end

afetr that you must be fine

[red flower]

sleepy do you know how to translate this to balatro shaders

[primal robin]

I have no idea how shaders work at all vro

[red flower]

😭

i actually did just kinda learn today

[primal robin]

that's the field I suck

[red flower]

but now im trying to port this yugioh one to the game

[hard kayak]

Every card is gaining 'can_use'

[primal robin]

ask cass or someone else who can do this

[hard kayak]

but only the correct card gets the green select

Oh wait

Does it need the else

[primal robin]

Kinda crazy that SMODS doesnt provide api for can_select

[red flower]

code?

[hard kayak]

G.FUNCS.can_select_card = function(e)
    local card = e.config.ref_table
    local csc = G.FUNCS.can_select_card
        G.FUNCS.can_select_card = function(e)
    if
        (card.config.center.spaceless == 'yes')
    then
        e.config.colour = G.C.GREEN
        e.config.button = 'use_card' 
    end
    return csc(e)
    end
end

[red flower]

the return seems nested

[hard kayak]

move it down one end?

[red flower]

why is there another can_select_card inside

[hard kayak]

oh I didn't notice that

[red flower]

local csc = G.FUNCS.can_select_card
G.FUNCS.can_select_card = function(e)
    local card = e.config.ref_table
    if
        (card.config.center.spaceless == 'yes')
    then
        e.config.colour = G.C.GREEN
        e.config.button = 'use_card' 
        return
    end
    return csc(e)
end

[hard kayak]

oh my god it finally works

thank you so much
