Shuffle two decks of cards together

[Enzyphilon]

I have two decks of cards on my table.
Deck 1 is shuffled and 4 cards are dealt to each player.
This works with the script below.

Now I want to put deck 2 on deck 1 and shuffeld it.
How does it work, and what exactly do I have to insert and where?
I just don't get it.
I know that I ".putObject ()" must use, but how and where exactly?


This is my Script:

LUA – Global:

DECK1_GUID = "96212f"
DECK2_GUID = "521917"

Lua – Button Object:

DECK1_GUID = Global.getVar('DECK1_GUID')
DECK2_GUID = Global.getVar('DECK2_GUID')
 
function setUpCards()
    local deck = getObjectFromGUID(DECK1_GUID)
    deck.randomize()
    deck.deal(4)

end

UI – Button Object:

<button
    onClick="setUpCards"
    position="0 0 -30"
    width="650"
    height="200"
    color="rgba(220,160,140,0)">
</button>

Not sure if this is the best way but if you move Deck2 on top of Deck2 then they will form a single deck.

Do something like:

DECK1_GUID = Global.getVar('DECK1_GUID')
DECK2_GUID = Global.getVar('DECK2_GUID')

function setUpCards()
local deck = getObjectFromGUID(DECK1_GUID)
local deckpos = deck.getPosition()
deckpos[2] = 4

local deck2 = getObjectFromGUID(DECK2_GUID)

deck2.setPositionSmooth(deckpos, false, false)

deck.randomize()
deck.deal(4)

end

Notes:
deckpos[2] is the height above the table and this just makes sure it drops on top

Also as deck2 will take time to drop so adding a delay before shuffling and dealing might be a good idea.

Wait.time(function() deck.randomize() end, 1)
Wait.time(function() deck.deal(4) end, 1)
