[1.4.2] Showdown - New ranks, cards, and more

[somber oasis]

Showdown started from the idea of new decimal ranks, then sprout into more things.

[muted flax]

why is talisman reqiured for this mod

[somber oasis]

i couldn't figure out how to do xChips on my own

[muted flax]

yeah this blind isn't fun

gameplay wise this is something i'd expect from cruel blinds

[somber oasis]

The one you find on ante 8?

[muted flax]

the mod

[somber oasis]

Ah

Let me check

[muted flax]

honestly i'd probably scrap the blind alltogether or just increase blind size if score reqiurement is met before last hand'

rather than "you instantly lose the game if you overscore"

[somber oasis]

Yeah that may be better

Hello! I'm currently planned to add a cross-mod compatibility support between my mod UnStable with this one, and since both of our mods introducing decimal ranks but with a different functions, I was wondering how would you prefer it to be done?
This wouldn't affect either of the mods when playing in isolation, so please don't worry. This is only when both of the mods are loaded together.

In UnStable, decimal ranks can act as both ranks of the lower and upper end, or itself in straight-based hands (so stuff like 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3 is valid, so does 0.5 2 3 4 5, or 0.5, 1,2, 3, 4), but they cannot be played in Pairs with any other ranks unless a specific Joker is obtained.

Would you like me to add all the UnStable's functionality of the decimal ranks there to all the counterpart ranks (including the face card ones, so they became "face decimal card", which is "0.5" lower than their respective face card counterpart), or would you prefer me to keep their counterpart ability only operates as is?

Regardless of both options, I am thinking that all counterpart ranks will trigger the Joker that respond to the decimal card in UnStable by default.

I'm personally leaning towards the latter option myself because it's not intrusive your mod, so they can be played exactly like how the mechanic was initially designed.
But it could cause confusion to the player though because they are technically also a "decimal" rank. It's completely up to you, and I fully respect your decision!

I'm gonna keep rank 0 separated as is, though, as they have different ability entirely. (Besides probably adding the ability to be played in a straight hand similar to UnStable's 0)

All the additional codes will be done on my side, so you don't have to do anything. Please don't worry!

[somber oasis]

Hello! Thanks for doing a compatibility with my mod, I was looking at yours yesterday and I was surprised to see that you had a similar idea.

I think that adding the decimal ranks functionality to counterparts ranks is a great idea, though maybe it could be deactivated somehow if players want to isolate abilities.

[wooden bear]

Got it, Thank you very much!

I can make it a proper config option in that case, meaning to actually make them since DnDJ compat earlier too

[somber oasis]

That's perfect! By the way, what's DnDJ?

[zinc venture]

A new crash appears!

[zinc venture]

Crouton triggered after round end

[slate relic]

i wonder how this interacts with a different mod with decimal ranks

[opaque sequoia]

weird crash: when you use this mod in conjunction with unstable and use an auxillary card, the game crashes (sometimes it doesn't unless you go back to the menu) and it says that this mod caused it

[somber oasis]

This is the same problem as the crash shown above, it will be fixed in the coming update

[somber oasis]

☝️

[opaque sequoia]

[lusty tendon]

i was about to paste the exact same issue but I used my eyes to read

[1.4.2] Showdown - New ranks, cards, and more

[storm fossil]

When I use the Malverk mod to replace card arts, the game crashes immediately upon opening the textures when used with Showdown.

[somber oasis]

I'll look into that for the next update, thanks for the report 👍

[somber oasis]

what mod were you using?

[storm fossil]

The main issue is with the Malverk-1.1.3a mod, which replaces card textures. During testing, enabling this mod alone, even without other mods, causes conflicts with Showdown. The problem specifically occurs when the texture option in Malverk-1.1.3a is turned on.

Additionally, there is a minor bug:
When Showdown and Partner-API-1.0.2g are used together, the language selection bubbles for cards on the start screen will appear on both the left and right sides.

https://github.com/Icecanno/Partner-API
https://github.com/Eremel/Malverk/releases

@somber oasis

[somber oasis]

could you send me a video of the bug? i'm not able to reproduce this exact bug
when i'm trying to replicate it, the game just stops. No crash, no log, nothing

the issue with the language selection bubble seems weir as I'm not touching it nor the main menu in any way (except jean-paul besides the ace but i doubt this could be the cause)

[storm fossil]

Unfortunately, I just tried to reproduce it and got the same situation as you now. It crashes directly without any error message. The previous error was an infinite loop, but now it just crashes immediately.😫

I'm not sure what went wrong either. My mods are still the same as before... it might be because I updated some of the mod versions.

[somber oasis]

fixed the game closing when clicking on the texture button. I searched in the discord and the bug already happened once and according to the dev that found the issue, it happened when take_ownership was used on the base Joker

i used it for an easter egg with a joker but since this is a bit buggy overall i removed it entirely

[storm fossil]

Great, thank you very much. I can enjoy playing now! As for the main menu speech bubble issue we discussed earlier, I added a not self.hasSpeech check at line 288 in Partner-API-1.0.2g/partner.lua. This is because Partner-API's bubble positioning logic was overriding Showdown's. Now, by having Partner-API skip Showdown's bubbles, Showdown's own positioning can work properly.

The previous issue was that when both mods were enabled simultaneously, the dialogue box would appear on the left side of the card (blue box). After adding the check, the problem has been resolved, and it now displays in the correct position (green box).

[somber oasis]

ohhhhhh the speech bubble

i thought you meant the language button on the main menu 😭

i'll add the patch as soon as possible!

the patch is in the latest version now 👍

[storm fossil]

Bro, I was just about to report a new issue when I saw you just pushed an update, you might have to get busy again, I think I found another problem related to the Card Sleeves mod.

The issue is: when hovering over Showdown's sleeves, its locked_loc_vars function returns nil when Stakes is enabled, which causes a crash due to missing colours parameter.

What I did: added return CardSleeves.Sleeve.locked_loc_vars(self) to the locked_loc_vars functions of the four sleeves (Mirror, Engineer, Chess, Slotted), so it can correctly return the parameters including colours .

After I made those changes, there haven't been any more issues. 😆

[somber oasis]

it's fixed, thanks again for the report 😄 👍

[storm fossil]

In Boosters.lua line 398, the word end_consumeable is misspelled, which will cause an error and needs to be fixed.
I checked Decks.lua, where it is spelled as end_consumeable. However, in Boosters.lua:398, it's end_consumable, missing the letter 'e'.

[storm fossil]

There's a small issue: when using your modded deck, the deck viewing interface blocks other buttons on widescreen displays.

[somber oasis]

Yeah that's a big issue that has been there since i made the custom ranks 😅
