OTel Trace
OpenTelemetry for Balatro. Every run, blind, hand (down to each card and joker that scored), shop visit and booster pack becomes a span; discards, purchases, scoring effects, frame hitches and crashes become log events; frame timing, memory, score and money become metrics. Everything is sent over OTLP/HTTP (JSON) to an OpenTelemetry Collector or any backend that accepts OTLP.
Unofficial fan project, not affiliated with or endorsed by LocalThunk or Playstack.
Install
- Install Lovely and Steamodded (see their install guides for your OS).
- Put this
otel-tracefolder into your BalatroModsfolder, or install it with a Thunderstore mod manager (r2modman). - Run something that receives OTLP on
localhost:4318, for example the Collector + Jaeger + Prometheus stack from the repository.
Configure
In the game: Mods → OTel Trace → Config shows where telemetry goes. Copy a URL (for example
http://192.168.1.10:4318) and click Paste from clipboard; Reset to default goes back to
http://127.0.0.1:4318. Balatro's text fields can't type URLs, hence the clipboard. The setting is
saved in the game's config folder and survives mod updates.
The environment variable takes precedence over the in-game setting:
| Environment variable | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT |
http://127.0.0.1:4318 |
Where to send; /v1/traces, /v1/logs and /v1/metrics are appended |
Privacy
The mod sends only to the endpoint above, which is your own machine unless you change it. It sends game data (seed, deck, cards, scores, timings), the OS type, your GPU/renderer name, display size and game settings, a random session id per game start, and for crashes and mod errors the Lua error message and stack trace (they name game and mod files). It reads no account or Steam data. If nothing listens on the endpoint, the data is dropped. Disable the mod in Steamodded's Mods menu to stop it.
