Straight flush not happening in certain conditions
When playing 4 of clubs, 3 of spades, 2 of spades, ace of spades, and king of spades; with smeared joker to combine spades and clubs straight flush does not trigger, instead it triggers a regular flush.
Thank you for telling me it doesn't go around ace from both sides. In my opinion it should be like this but fair enough funny poker roguelike

A Royal flush is TJQKA, all same suit.

An ace is always at one end of a straight. Meaning KA234 is NOT a straight. And if it's not a straight, it's not a straight flush. And if it's not a SF, it's not a Royal Flush. Which is just a fancy name for a specific SF.

Aces don't wrap around, so you'll need A2345 or AKQJ10 of the same suit to trigger Straight Flush.

Aces only wrap if it's just the Ace. So Ace-2-3-4-5, but King-Ace-2-3-4 wont work

I dunno what to tell you, it's like that in normal poker too

it was never going to be a straight flush based on the cards you mentioned. should be a flush for sure but you do need the straight to make a straight flush. there's a joker that let's you make straights and flushes with four cards, very handy imo

Edit: just picked up the smeared joker. what a ♥♥♥♥♥ when you don't check the debuff on the final blind and your get all your clubs and spades in one hand that need trashing

No, BUT it could be an interesting joker/challenge to include that straights can wrap for future updates. THAT we can all agree on ;)

Sadly straights are straight trash (pun intended) and I would die before ever buying a joker like that but at least it could be something interesting there like Tortilla joker "Straights can wrap around ace, x3 mult if you wrap your straight".

Having it wrap around would make the Superposition joker make more sense/more viable, but alas.
