Well, thanks for nothing, I guess. I'll go back to UltraHal, instead. At least there're more helpful folks on that forum.

@ Mathion: probably you'll find more friends in a different site or more botmasters that do it for job so they can be more useful but i doubt there are many great AI like the one created by Benji Adams. This is a really masterpiece that is constantly improving. Good luck then.

When I am building a bot in the language centre, how do I go to the page for words starting with the letter Y? I seem to have a choice of

#A BC DE FG HI JK LM NO PQ RS TU VWZ | x-keywords

Thanks

@ Richardo: try to refresh the page or to log-in again.

Creating KP's starting with a "Y" might help, my bot has none that start with a "Z", for my bot there is no page for "Z".

I'm trying to get my bot to listen to knock knock jokes, but it automatically adds "There is" before "(key1) who?" Is there a way to keep it from doing that?

@Richardo, @LarsB

My bots didn't have a z keyphrase either, so I added "zero". "Z" doesn't show up as a link in the Language Center so far.

I created a similar KP, will log for now, as, indeed, there is no z page at the moment. Perhaps it'll show up when I log on again this weekend

I have KP starting with Y but I can't access them except via downloading the whole language centre or searching. I think it's a bug.

Another question: what is the AIScript that matches a human that is neither male nor female? This seems to be a rather common thing, and my scripts break in this case. Even "if not male" would help a lot, but apparently this is bad syntax.

Cross posted in "The AI engine":
male/female info is taken from the bot's or human's settings page. It seems there is no need to ask the bot/human for their gender, the AI engine already knows this. So, make gender specific responses and the engine will select from the pool of gender specific ones.

LarsB: OK, I suppose, if it works all the time (which I doubt). But the point I was making is that sometimes the AI engine does not know the gender. Example: a guest has no gender, and it is also possible to create a bot with no gender (and if you do this there is no way to change or set the gender after the bot is created - I tried it). In such cases the only solution seems to be "if not female" and hope that a genderless agent doesn't mind being treated as male. But this syntax is not allowed.
Two responses marked "if male" and "if female" might lead to incorrect response or "Sorry, there are no valid Responses for me to choose from"
