TheFamily - UI tabs to cleanup screen space | Balatro | Page 1

*temporary name, can be changed in future

Sometimes, mods love add own UI in screen. But what if there's so much mods so there's no space at all? That's what I want to solve with this mod.

Main idea is to have one place with "tabs" which corresponds to some buttons, actions, UIs or menus, ad controls which ones is active in any moment.

For this, will be provided API to add own tab which can be represented as card (center) with some popups, alerts or other additional text.
Since a lot of tabs can be created at the same time, pagination included.

#

Here's how "tab panel" looks like atm. Each tab can be represented as card with own popup on hover, alert on corner and/or text on card (useful if there's no good center to represent what you need)

#

And here's one example how this can be used on practice

#

It uses different approach for different tasks: move stuff instead of controls which one to display.

#

Also it fixes main menu and deck, which I'm not planning to adjust, so it's fine trash

#

And, if mod in result became good and useful, I'll force other mods adds support for it very agressively. Or I'll do it myself

harsh saffron Jul 1, 2025, 10:54 AM

#

omnimous....

meager dust Jul 1, 2025, 12:15 PM

#

Now cards scaled properly, so soul sprites displayed correctly too.
And here's another example of practice usage: summon solitaire right in game just for fun
(feat @pliant pelican)

#

Next step will be implementing tabs register API, maybe grouping, user-defined sorting

#

Last addition which can be useful: I added an option to keep hover popup when card is selected.
Which means player can hover tab to see info, and highlight card to prevnt if from disappearing.
Can work very well with dynatext and dynamic variables.

One idea I want to implement: a tab which displays probabilities for each rarity and card to appear in shop, probabilities for editions, etc
Another idea: tab for speedrunners, which shows probability to The Serpent to appear, how much rerolls needed to guaranteed seprent, and average cost of rerolling

#

And yea, multibox

#

trash

meager dust Jul 1, 2025, 10:20 PM

#

Another small update: popup rerenders when tab is highlighted or unhighlighted.
Since you can set popup to not disappear when tab is not hovered, you can put some buttons or cards on it.

#

Maybe it's not necessary but oh well

#

So, mod probably is already working well. Now, I'll write how to use it, and here we go

@balmy robin

#

Let me know how it feels and any found bugs

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 12:32 AM

#

In current implementation, there's no way to display or not display alert text conditionally, which is not good...
I'll try to figure it out next time, I guess

#

...or now

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 12:49 AM

#

And since I'm doing this change, maybe I should also make modicon, idk

Meh, next time

balmy robin Jul 2, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

Having a start highlighted by default option would be cool if possible

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

Possible, but what if more than 1 tab set this?

#

I think better uer decide which one to open

#

And, right now there's limit to 1 active tab at a time

#

Maybe I should remove it, idk

balmy robin Jul 2, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

oh is that true, i only tested one as of now

#

but yeah this is mostly for having some tabs act as switches

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 12:59 AM

#

We'll see later, maybe I'll add this

balmy robin Jul 2, 2025, 1:03 AM

#

like i would like to have this open the two areas at the same time

#

maybe just a way to indicate "this is meant to be the only tab" that unhighlights all other tabs might work

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 1:05 AM

#

Still not sure about this. For now you can in line 59 replace 1 with 20 to have unlimited amout of selected tabs

#

It's lind of thing which require some testing or smth

#

Or maybe it's because 4AM for me

#

sleepwell

balmy robin Jul 2, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

go to sleep!

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 1:07 AM

#

Theoretically I can limit amount of selected cards in group, make it configurable

#

Some actual use for groups xd

#

Aside of that, so far works fine as I see

#

One idea was keep all tabs from one group in one page. Rn it's not eimplemented, but I think it's needed 100%

#

(that's why groups was maded in a first place)

#

Anyway, enough for now

balmy robin Jul 2, 2025, 1:12 AM

#

meager dust Theoretically I can limit amount of selected cards in group, make it configurabl...

yeah i think that's a good idea

#

I was thinking maybe tab types like type = 'switch' or type = 'overlay', the first one can have multiple selected at a time while the second is only one at the time
so you can have switches to show areas and overlays for stuff like solitaire

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 8:03 AM

amazing thank you

balmy robin Jul 2, 2025, 8:36 PM

#

uhh small issue

#

(those are the cards for the tabs i made)

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 8:41 PM

#

Probably forgot to add some args when creating cards or smth

#

Me too

#

I see, because cards not created in menu, game think that they're used

#

Should be easy to fix

#

Fixed

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 9:49 PM

Now, I need somehow make other developers aware about this mod and what it provides, and why they should consider it in a first place

#

This even harder than UI trash

#

Also I added functons to rerender things

meager dust Jul 2, 2025, 10:40 PM

Also I added function to determine should this tab (or entire group) be created. As an example, for Multiplayer, show tab only when it's multiplayer match

I'll make docs later. For now, only example and types (you can find them in index.lua file)

#

Actually I'll move types in separate file, because it makes sense

meager dust Jul 3, 2025, 11:53 AM

#

Such an easy mod starts to become a bit complicated. I should probably make as a classes instead of just tables and make a bunch of methods which will control all state changes, popups etc.
I was trying to add force_highlight function but it's require execute logic for deselecting already selected cards, which is placed only in one place. Kinda blunder from me

#

I'll do it next time, since I need to do some work

#

Right now, I'll make small update and add README and documentation

#

What is really nice is that last updates is basically additions, not major changes of already maded api

#

#

Enough updates for a while sleepwell

meager dust Jul 3, 2025, 1:15 PM

#

I have an idea. When I'll add options, I'll implement vertical scrolling as an alternative for pages

#

Should be look and feel cool

meager dust Jul 4, 2025, 9:43 PM

#

I did nothing, but debug menu conveniently leaves space for my things. Lucky!

#

Question. Which one should have higher priority: can_highlight or force_highlight?

#

Logically can_highlight should limit force_highlight

#

Btw I fully refactored mod, now it's not looking like random spaghetti, at least a bit less

worn quest Jul 4, 2025, 11:27 PM

#

What mods use this?

meager dust Jul 4, 2025, 11:31 PM

#

worn quest What mods use this?

Since mod is WIP and created recently, basically no one

#

When it will be in decent state, I'll advertise add support for it to other devs

Ahh

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 1:04 AM

#

Soon™

#

@balmy robin may I ask you try dev branch before I go sleep? Theoretically all should work without any changes for you

it works perfectly fine

#

Anyway, cool

#

I added a lot of new stuff, force_highlight, open and close

balmy robin Jul 5, 2025, 1:11 AM

ohh

#

lsp didnt autocomplete, weird

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 1:12 AM

#

Also keys is not prefixed..

balmy robin Jul 5, 2025, 1:12 AM

#

which

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 1:12 AM

#

All of them, group and tab ones

balmy robin Jul 5, 2025, 1:13 AM

#

thats not my prefix i like snake case

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 1:13 AM

#

I mean field_area

balmy robin Jul 5, 2025, 1:13 AM

#

yeah thats the name i chose

#

or are you saying i need to prefix it

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 1:14 AM

#

For now - yes

balmy robin Jul 5, 2025, 1:14 AM

#

ohh ok

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 1:14 AM

#

Theoretically I can add group key as a prefix, or even use SMODS thing if present

#

not sure yet

#

I'll think about it next time

balmy robin Jul 5, 2025, 1:19 AM

#

balmy robin force_highlight doesnt seem to work for me unless im doing something wrong

works now :3

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 1:21 AM

#

Cool

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 11:18 AM

#

@balmy robin same thing, another refactor, check is it working fine for you. Thanks

#

Should be last one. Now code not sucks at all

balmy robin Jul 5, 2025, 11:19 AM

#

will check in a bit 👍

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 11:20 AM

#

Also code review is welcome

balmy robin Jul 5, 2025, 11:30 AM

#

works fine and now it seems to work well with my overlay menus too, nice

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 11:44 AM

#

I set higher instance type yea

worn elbow Jul 5, 2025, 1:30 PM

#

I like it

#

👍

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 4:51 PM

#

Actually, this was easy

#

Now I need to make it also draggable somehow. Or maybe don't, since dragging leads to click, and some tabs can set click event, ambiguous behaviour

#

Next one will be make this card area place in any side of screen

#

Still not sure what exactly top most card should so

#

Theoretically when it's selected, as an alert add mod config button

stone kayak Jul 5, 2025, 5:02 PM

#

Hey, I was looking for a mod like that and I wonder if you do just ingame UI clean up ?

#

Cause, the setting run menu could be also cleaned

#

this one

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 5:03 PM

#

for this use Galdur

stone kayak Jul 5, 2025, 5:05 PM

#

meager dust for this use Galdur

mb I wasnt knowing about galdur

#

but I really like your mod it help a lot with UI

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 5:16 PM

#

Also I need to add some sort of "tag system"

#

Where tab have tag corresponds to smth like "play_discard_buttons", "top_bar", "score_preview", "hand", "jokers", "consumables"

#

No idea how to make them not trigger cascade each other, but that's a problem for future's me

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 7:29 PM

#

Problem. Setting overlay value too high makes tabs accessible on pause

#

And if I make it too low, card popups lower than other screen content

#

So, maybe I prevent any updates on pause, or provide smth like active_on_pause to alow tabs be active on pause

#

Nvm, too complicated, just stop displaying during pause

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 8:11 PM

#

Smth like this I guess

#

Now need properly reset state of this thing between rerenders

#

water

#

Things not rotated in first frame pisses me off

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 9:08 PM

#

I pushed this one

#

Enough for today

#

@uneven shadow is was hard to implement textures sorting by using card area in Malverk? Is there anything I should be ready for?

uneven shadow Jul 5, 2025, 9:24 PM

#

Malverk just changes the textures from left to right as you've selected them, so it overwrites any of the "lower" priority

meager dust Jul 5, 2025, 9:25 PM

#

Hm, okay

#

I'm planning implement smth similar for tab groups sorting

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 11:41 AM

#

Goddamn, I can just don't pause a game when mod settings opened, why I forgot about this

#

This resolves a lot of potential issues

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 12:37 PM

#

Yea that works well. Now, safe rerender and this big issue is solved

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 1:02 PM

#

But cards still don't want to rotate properly on first frame. This makes me crazy

#

I need make mod icon at some point

#

But in plans right now is make placing on all edges of screen, and some options for custom rotating

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 3:05 PM

#

Position on right - done

#

Next ones - bottom I guess

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 3:43 PM

#

..or maybe next time, more complicated than I expect

#

I should do real work, but instead I cannot stop making mods, help RUN

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 3:46 PM

#

meager dust Position on right - done

Pushed tho

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 6:57 PM

#

Since I made a lot of stuff already, maybe someone have suggestions or requests? trash

light basin Jul 6, 2025, 7:51 PM

#

like for ideas of what to put in tabs?

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 7:53 PM

#

Well no but actually why not

#

I already have some ideas which own tabs to add

#

For speedruns ones, shop pools probabilities, etc

light basin Jul 6, 2025, 7:54 PM

#

chance of getting a poker hand in your initial hand? ie. "x% chance of drawing a flush in first hand" or something like that?

#

as far as i know literally no other mod does anything like that so

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 7:55 PM

#

Yea I was thinking about that, probabilities to draw specific hand

#

It's kinda complicated tho

light basin Jul 6, 2025, 7:57 PM

#

very significantly harder idea: that, but also chance to be holding any poker hand after every play/discard

light basin Jul 6, 2025, 7:58 PM

#

meager dust It's kinda complicated tho

yes i imagine thats why no mod does it :p

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 9:14 PM

#

I like how more people appear in this thread, despite me making an API mod in very WIP state with no content

#

Crazy

balmy robin Jul 6, 2025, 9:14 PM

#

it's pretty cool

light basin Jul 6, 2025, 9:18 PM

#

its a neat mod ok

#

another idea: tab showing level chips and mult for hands. i dont think any mod does that yet either somehow

#

afaik cryptid devs seemed to kinda want to add something for that a while ago but i dont think they ever actually did it

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 9:32 PM

#

Like numbers displayed on planet?

#

+35 chips and +3 mult in saturn?

light basin Jul 6, 2025, 9:33 PM

#

yeah

#

some mods edit those values so it would be nice to see em still

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 9:33 PM

#

I guess run info fits for this better

light basin Jul 6, 2025, 9:34 PM

#

i agree but i figured i would throw the idea out there anyways

meager dust Jul 6, 2025, 9:51 PM

#

My own tabs will be low priority since this can spend more time implementing them than adding new features for API

@fluid moth one small thing you need to fix. Instead of manually highlight card, use definition:open() or definition:close(), because possible moments when card is not present but tab still updates, and this functions handle all this stuff for you

Actually I can try merge current edition popup with all other this types of things

worn quest Jul 8, 2025, 7:58 PM

#

This is coming along nicely

meager dust Jul 8, 2025, 11:22 PM

#

Since edition rates in different contexts different, I should add abilitiy to choose what to display

#

Neex to exclude negative for playing cards tho

#

Done

I don't think weight is a percentage is it?

meager dust Jul 8, 2025, 11:40 PM

#

Yes, but I convert them to percents, because easier to understand

#

I can display actual weight but I think it's not really needed

#

todo: add money stats, like "how much money spent on shop", "how much on rerolls", "how much gained from hand" etc

#

I'm not using localization because I'm lazy. Am I cooked?

I would like to add support for this mod with my Horoscopes CardArea. Is there any documentation? I took a look at the examples but they weren't really of much help

meager dust Jul 9, 2025, 12:12 AM

Check types.lua file, it have explanations for all things

inner oasis Jul 9, 2025, 12:15 AM

#

This gives me values for the tab options which is all well and good, but this doesn't tell me how to make it work with a card area

meager dust Jul 9, 2025, 12:15 AM

#

2 ways:

change .states.visible
change config.offset

#

Hide area, or move it out of screen, up to you

inner oasis Jul 9, 2025, 12:16 AM

#

I see, alright

meager dust Jul 9, 2025, 12:17 AM

#

I'll update examples and, possibly, add full documentation in short term

inner oasis Jul 9, 2025, 12:48 AM

#

I was a little disappointed to find out this doesn't work

#

Got the cardarea showing/hiding to work tho

meager dust Jul 9, 2025, 12:49 AM

#

Well, yea, not sure how properly add this formatting in vanilla game without using localization

#

With SMODS it's easier for sure

#

If I'll find where it is in SMODs I'll copy-paste in just in case

#

@balmy robin maybe you know?

#

I found SMODS.localize_box but it looks like for parsed string

#

Actually I'll try one thing

#

Okay I figure out how to parse 1 line with smods, but not multiple

meager dust Jul 9, 2025, 1:12 AM

#

inner oasis I was a little disappointed to find out this doesn't work

You can use smth like this for now:

return {
    name = {
        {
            n = G.UIT.T,
            config = {
                text = "Shop probabilities: Card types",
                scale = 0.35,
                colour = G.C.WHITE,
            },
        },
    },
    description = {
        SMODS.localize_box(loc_parse_string("{C:attention}Ha-ha!{}, you found me!"), {
            default_col = G.C.UI.TEXT_DARK,
        }),
    },
}

#

Until I find better solution

#

sleepwell

#

Yea that's definitely a thing I need to figure out

#

But only tomorrow then

balmy robin Jul 9, 2025, 1:23 AM

#

meager dust You can use smth like this for now: ```lua return { name = { { ...

yeah for the poker hands screen i used that with multiple text nodes

meager dust Jul 9, 2025, 10:08 AM

#

Today I'll probably make some cleanups, update and make more examples, and maybe add documentation on github page

meager dust Jul 9, 2025, 11:45 AM

#

Maybe I should do some optimizations, like do not call front_label function every frame

meager dust Jul 9, 2025, 12:29 PM

#

Big update for types is coming

meager dust Jul 9, 2025, 2:12 PM

#

I found one oversight. When creating alert with definition_function, element n = G.UIT.ROOT with transpacent color and align = "cm" is added too

#

I'll fix that, since main idea for definition_function is return full definition for UIBox to pass

#

Kinda breaking change, oopsie

I'll add backwards compatibility

Plans for mod in near future:

Add config for sorting groups similar to Malverk, where you can provide card which will represent group, and user by moving them will change display order
Possibly, implement ability to enable/disable group individually in mod config. May be a problem because mods may rely on a tab as a single option to reach some UI. So maybe I can allow to definge group as non-disableable
Implement tag system, which will allows to tabs with type = switch behave similar to type = overlay, which can be useful when multiple mods will trying, for example, try to hide joker slots or deck
Add few tabs which useful for naneinf runs, maybe some more

Done

#

Here's a list of this "switch overlays" I add by default. Any string can be used, but have some sort of pre-defined ones can be useful.

#

Here's how it looks like in code. Providing this will close all tabs with similar switch_overlays so make sure that only one tab which occupy this area is opened (unless they're force_highlighted)

probabilities of drawing specific hands / cards to hand (if selected cards are played/discarded)

#

frosty matrix dont get how this is any less useful than anything you've done but ig if ur not ...

Let me explain.

probs to draw specific hand - hard to implement because leads to a lot of math and counting cards, let alone implying joker effects
probs to draw specific card - kind of information which affects your decisions too much in moment. It's the same why Balatro doesn't have score preview - prevent people min-maxing each move instead of playing a game.
specific cards for specific jokers - same thing as previous + you can just check how much rank left in your deck and assume probs to draw them
cards you have most - just open your deck lol

sleek zephyr Jul 19, 2025, 11:58 PM

#

you should make it so that if front_label is a string instead of a function in create_tab it auto generates the function for you with some default boilerplate for consistency, probably easier than copy pasting the same boilerplate over and over

#

or ig theres something similar

#

but this could probably be just text still

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:01 AM

#

Makes sense. Easy to do

#

Function allows to implement localization, custom color etc.

#

But for simplicity string can be good yea

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:09 AM

Basically

#

When card highlighted this popup rerenders automatically

You better use highlight thing for this one

Since other mods theoretically can use tags area for own needs

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:10 AM

store tab reference

#

And then you can call tab:open(), tab:close()

#

It's save to open already opened tab, all checks in place

#

Just in case, you can find types folder with full explanations for all useful methods for you

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:12 AM

Does it like have features I mean.
Can I use it right now and have better UI in game?

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:15 AM

#

It doesn't adjust existion vanilla UI, only when other mods have support for it

#

It's main idea

#

But mod itself adds few tabs with some info

lyric knoll Jul 20, 2025, 12:15 AM

#

Do any mods use it right now?

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:16 AM

#

Few, since mod is new

lyric knoll Jul 20, 2025, 12:16 AM

#

Ah, okay.

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:16 AM

#

When it will be in good condition I'll advertise it "agressively"

lyric knoll Jul 20, 2025, 12:16 AM

#

Nice

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:19 AM

#

Okay, as far as I understand, game have limited window where mouse events can occur

#

Okay, I found a "fix" for this

#

It's a single global value

#

I'm lucky!

#

Not sure about prefixes, should I

#

@sleek zephyr in dev branch I pushed a thing which, I hope, will make area interactable in wide monitor like yours

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:40 AM

#

alr

#

let me test

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:40 AM

#

Your monitos is 21x9 right?

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:41 AM

#

16:9 apparantly

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:41 AM

#

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:41 AM

#

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:41 AM

#

Hm, weird, okay

#

So, in your case, 3rd example most suitable, preffer this approach

#

Like toggle visibility tags/runes by highlightning tab

#

All other logic already covered by me card area

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:45 AM

#

ive figured it all out anyway

#

this might not be the best way to do it but it does work

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:46 AM

#

self:rerender_popup

#

ehehe

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:46 AM

#

is that actually a thing

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:46 AM

#

Ofc

#

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:46 AM

#

i should really setup lsp stuff at some point

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:47 AM

#

Maybe

#

But for now just check folder types rq

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:48 AM

#

i dont really have any other tabs to make rn anyway

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:49 AM

#

Also, just in case, possible moments when tab exist and working, but card doesn't exist, so in callbacks it will be nil

#

It's not an issue, it's a case where you open another page

#

But luckily for you all methods for render/rerender/open/close do all checks

#

Sorry for some confusions, I'll account them when I'll write mod docs

#

trash

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:53 AM

#

its alright

#

i mean you should write the docs

#

but it probably matters more because of other people and less because of me

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:53 AM

#

I know, it's in my plans

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:53 AM

#

i will figure it out eventually just from reading the source

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:54 AM

#

Aside of that, is things understandable enough and fullfils all your needs, at least for now?

#

Since idk what else I can add in terms of API, I implemented everything from my mind

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

its good for me

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

Also, code review in general is welcome. But it's fully optional

#

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 4:10 PM

#

Okay it' tiiiime

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 5:49 PM

#

@sleek zephyr I updated mod alongside with my vision of runes tab. PR or I'll just send a ready file in DMs?

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 5:49 PM

#

you can do a pr

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 5:50 PM

#

It needs few tweaks from you tho (localization ones)

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 5:50 PM

#

thats alr i can edit it and stuff

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 5:52 PM

#

ehehe

#

https://github.com/lord-ruby/Entropy/pull/29

#

Use recent mod verson from dev branch tho, I implemented tab:load function in it

#

Sorry to be a bit annoying with this thing trash

#

And, I hope, you tested it

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 6:04 PM

#

works fine for me

meager dust Jul 20, 2025, 6:04 PM

#

Do you like it?

sleek zephyr Jul 20, 2025, 6:05 PM

#

its cool

lyric knoll Jul 21, 2025, 4:50 PM

meager dust why?

It doesn't let me hover over or interact with any of the things.
They do show up though.
Also, it lags my game a lot in windowed mode (and fullscreen)

meager dust Jul 21, 2025, 4:55 PM

Yea, possible some problems with performance, I'll try to optimize them when I can

meager dust Jul 21, 2025, 4:57 PM

nvm

lyric knoll Jul 21, 2025, 5:03 PM

#

@meager dust I started a run, and it was lagging so bad that my game crashed.
I don't think windowed mode likes it

meager dust Jul 21, 2025, 5:04 PM

#

crash-log?

lyric knoll Jul 21, 2025, 5:04 PM

#

It won't tell you anything, but sure.
It was just lag, so it doesn't actually show what happened

106

Well actually 104 (not including The Family)

#

Or wait no 105

uneven shadow Jul 21, 2025, 5:09 PM

#

I wonder which one is spamming the debug logs

meager dust Jul 21, 2025, 5:12 PM

#

Good question

#

It's calling some SMODS util function right?

#

Basically some mod calls prints a lot of time per second, which can cause fps drop

#

I'll check my mod in case of leaking moveables or memory

lyric knoll Jul 21, 2025, 5:18 PM

#

I very highly doubt your mod is causing the spam.
This has been happening for a while now and this is the first time I've used The Family.

meager dust Jul 21, 2025, 5:19 PM

#

I'm not printing any debug info in code at all

#

trash

#

As fas as I see some tabs leaves dead moveables, but that's about it

#

According to profiler other things does not impact performance, or do it insignificantly

meager dust Jul 21, 2025, 9:26 PM

#

@lyric knoll search in your mods folder for usage of sendMessageToConsole function. Some mod very like to spam with it

#

Or sendInfoMessage, thats' more our case

lyric knoll Jul 21, 2025, 9:27 PM

#

I'm making a new modpack because the other one was too unstable.
I'm going to try this mod again and see if it works now.

#

How easy would it be to create stuff for this mod?
I've honestly been looking at it for a bit now and it looks promising.

#

I could create stuff for it, mainly because Unjankify doesn't save with Mod Profiles installed.

meager dust Jul 21, 2025, 9:29 PM

#

Relatively easy, but require a bit if UI knowledge

lyric knoll Jul 21, 2025, 9:29 PM

#

Nice!
I'm going to start on that in a bit.

meager dust Jul 21, 2025, 9:33 PM

At some point someone should make collection of tabs with different games to play

lyric knoll Jul 21, 2025, 9:36 PM

#

Aikoyori's Shenanigans has that lol (in the mod page)
I'll add that actually

lyric knoll Jul 21, 2025, 9:51 PM

#

Okay yeah with the dev branch I can use the tabs in windowed
I honestly forgot to grab from dev and used main and then had to re-grab the mod.

lyric knoll Jul 23, 2025, 10:23 PM

#

@meager dust Hey, I can use the mod in windowed mode, but I have the weirdest resolution on my TV, so it ends up making the UI weird when I'm in windowed fullscreen because the taskbar makes it smaller.
This is an issue because I can only use the mod if I make the window smaller for a second. I'll send an image in just a second.

#

meager dust Jul 23, 2025, 10:26 PM

#

Do you use last version from dev branch?

lyric knoll Jul 23, 2025, 10:28 PM

#

meager dust Do you use last version from dev branch?

Not sure. I'll download the dev branch and see if that fixes it.
-# I thought I had the dev one, but I'm not sure now

lyric knoll Jul 23, 2025, 10:54 PM

#

It works now btw

https://github.com/SleepyG11/TheFamilyBalatro/releases/tag/v0.1.2b

GitHub

Release v0.1.2b · SleepyG11/TheFamilyBalatro

Fixed issues with interacting with config tabs far beyond screen boundaries
Added tab:load() method which called once when run load and tab is active
Allow front_label to be string as shorthand

meager dust Sep 2, 2025, 7:20 PM

#

I do belive this thread is dead. Time to revie it a little bit, I guess

#

Since it makes sense, now tabs also can be loaded in main menu stage

#

How this can be used? Up to you, but can be good apportunity to solve an issue where different mods want to show popup on game start (yes, aiko?)
Also someone suggested changelogs. Why not!

#

#

https://github.com/SleepyG11/TheFamilyBalatro/releases/tag/v0.1.3

Release v0.1.3 · SleepyG11/TheFamilyBalatro

Tabs now can be created on main menu as well.
Tabs now have stage field with values "RUN", "MAIN_MENU", "ALL"

What else I should add vsepohano

ornate bison Sep 2, 2025, 8:03 PM

#

idle game for while your hand is scoring

#

embedded browser to open the wiki

#

ip address viewer so it's a fun little minigame not to doxx yourself

#

live malverk/whatever-the-thing-for-sound-effects-is-called/trance/collab reconfigurer

#

timer/stopwatch

#

jokerforge so you can test your designs instantly

#

menu where you can apply pointless post-processing shaders to "improve" how the game looks

#

subway surfers videos on a loop

#

aggregated balatest stats (okay this one is something I should do myself)

#

live save switcher to go to the saved game on the other two profiles

meager dust Sep 2, 2025, 8:23 PM

#

last 2 makes sense

#

timer/stopwatch maybe
