upgrade cards are already set to be rarer than tarots by default

After playing with it a bit, I can confirm these aren't rare enough. For the time being I manually toned it back about 2x and it still feels really rewarding to find

wdym by toned it back about 2x
like weight set to 1.5?
golden wind
Yes
Well I didn't do it through your Lua to be clear, I am working on my own shop manager and manually set the weights through it's in-game menu
alpine raft
updated github with changed weights
golden wind
updated github with changed weights
Probably for the best with the strength they can provide. Great mod by the way
alpine raft
thx
the whole reason for making this mod was bc i dont feel like many mods actually use perma-bonuses all that much
wanted to make one that focused entirely on that/card deck, rather than mostly just being jokers
golden wind
Yeah it adds some good variety. I know of a couple mods that provide permanent bonuses to certain ranks but this is the first one that feels like it has some proper "big number" scaling
alpine raft
yeah if you get enough deck fixing/retriggers this mod can scale pretty big
which is why the basic +chips/+mult cards give less than/the same as the temporary bonus given by their respective base game tarot enhancements

Smart, yeah I am sure it could get wild especially deep into endless (my favorite part of the game)

The plant
golden wind
Fair enough lol, the plant is a great gatekeeper if you don't have boss rerolling by the time you run into it
With a bunch of mods it can sometimes be really difficult to find the correct voucher so a bunch of heavily modded late game runs end to the plant for me
100% my fault for not playing around the chance of getting that boss
alpine raft
anyway with enough building on a single card (and a bunch of planet upgrades) you can make it so just the "card" part of High Card beats everything all on its own
also if you ever pick up one of the planet upgrades, i will say, the increase in level chips/mult does change retroactively, it just does so the next time you level up that hand

Oh that's really good to know. I just assumed it wasn't gonna change my past pickups
alpine raft

yeah the games kinda weird about it and i only figured that out once i tried leveling up a hand a few times, upgrading said hand, then leveling it up again
itll give the amount of chips/mult (however weird itll look) in order to make the past levels "catch up" with the new level scaling
forest sorrel
seems cool
alpine raft
oh shit hello
alpine raft
thx
alpine raft
im not entirely sure what to add/update tbh
like im sure in its current state there are some things that could be explored/worked on but i dont really see what would be necessary to change
forest sorrel
well i will download a new version when you get an idea
alpine raft
nice
forest sorrel
fire mod thanks for fueling my gambling addiction 
doesnt seem to cause any problems either i can just keep it in my modpack
alpine raft
np, might add some funny extra text to the upgrade cards so they introduce themselves to you when you find them
alpine raft
doesnt seem to cause any problems either i can just keep it in my modpack
yeah it doesnt do too much crazy stuff, only changes perma bonuses on cards and the level up chips/mult for planet cards so i doubt theres many ways for it to cause problems
forest sorrel
only crazy stuff is being op after a certain time
and like
i am all for unbalanced stuff (thats why i use cryptid)
alpine raft
making the deck op is a major reason i made this in the first place lol
forest sorrel
hell yeah
alpine raft
cards getting strong without needing help from jokers was just smth that appealed to me
forest sorrel
and its exactly what i needed
because i LOVE when games introduce ways to permanently upgrade your stuff
alpine raft
hell yeah
forest sorrel
you can always ask for suggestions in the modding chat
alpine raft
true
alpine raft
do these upgrades stack if i put more on one card
yup
alpine raft
i never actually got enough upgrades to take advantage of it but im sure in endless you get to like x7 chips and x7 mult on one card
forest sorrel
now imagine ^7 mult
alpine raft
yeah im not doing exponential stuff for this one lol
forest sorrel
so yeah the mod is pretty much complete now?
will download the newest version if it comes out
again really cool mod 
alpine raft
yeah mods pretty much complete until i come up with an idea that says otherwise
alpine raft
alpine raft
update coming soon.

Say it with me “we do not depend on dev builds”
mystic badge
Yes
I have been busy so the cycle got shunted a bit, but the plan is that they are fortnightly releases
There are just a lot of PRs right now, and ones that need adjustments first, so it’ll be a few more days
alpine raft
alr will delete the release then
calm nacelle
new SMODS release btw, bumping thread
alpine raft
yeah, will release sometime
coarse shoal
Has this gotten any updates
hazy moth
can we get crossmod upgrades 🥺
i would like to see upgrade cards that apply retriggers, asc power maybe
idk if you even care about the mod but it would be awesome
alpine raft
i would like to see upgrade cards that apply retriggers, asc power maybe
the retrigger one is in the source version
i didn't release it yet bc smods wasn't updated
i should do that sometime
calm nacelle
yeah I do remember retriggers existing just in the base version so thats covered
