If I add all of my editions ideas, this addon could have over 100 editions.

glad crescent If I add all of my editions ideas, this addon could have over 100 editions.

Sounds great, I don't think you've chosen the greatest way of distribution there. It will fall out of date quickly as cryptid updates

#

you could share it as a separate mod that may or may not depend on cryptid, or if you'd rather it be added to cryptid itself (might be a bit over the top), you can make a PR

#

I can modify the files

#

If Cryptid is updated, my addon will be updated too.

prime wharf Jul 27, 2024, 7:42 PM

#

that does not scale very well

#

at least not without a proper form of version control

#

I don't see why it can't be a separate mod, that would be much easier to maintain?

#

I'm a beginner in balatro modding.

#

It's fine

prime wharf Jul 27, 2024, 7:45 PM

#

besides, cryptid 0.4.3a is already out of date by 100 commits at this time

#

I just don't think being a beginner warrants making things more complicated than they need to be

#

it would literally be the same code but without all of cryptid around it-

#

I just take the last release on github

#

Codding in Cryptid code is not complicated

prime wharf Jul 27, 2024, 7:50 PM

#

two things, using the latest release might not be a great idea for development purposes, and your functionality could easily be extracted into its own mod file to be distributed separately, and you would not have to worry about staying up to date with cryptid

#

just let yourself be warned it won't be maintainable, do with that what you will

#

Ok i'll try this tks

#

You can make a fork of a GitHub repository which will let you basically auto-update when we update Cryptid

#

If you make a fork of Cryptid with the tag 0.4.3a and then paste your code in, it should auto-update

glad crescent Jul 27, 2024, 8:06 PM

#

It seems easier. Tks

#

Another idea you might like would be to create your own .lua file with your editions that can just be added to the Items folder

glad crescent Jul 28, 2024, 4:24 AM

#

thanks but i prefer add my editions in the misc file

#

Wait, it's a add-on for cryptid, or it's a modified version of cryptid?

hearty anchor Jul 28, 2024, 4:33 AM

#

it's a modified version of cryptid basically

#

not a separate download that you can stick to cryptid
