Many questions are answered in the FAQ.

given that * represents a "soft" wildcard, it wouldn't be a good idea to use it in this way.

to capture "stage directions", merely remove the asterisks and treat them as ordinary keyphrases.

am i misunderstanding you?
hope this helps

but *you kiss my knee.
goes to xnone. What?

If you want to capture an asterisk as an asterisk (and not have it defaulting to a wildcard,) you'll have to set it up as a regular expression in raw mode, and use something like

[ forwardslash*]you kiss my knee (re)

you might need to experiment with the space/slash combination (it won't let me post the slash in the above example, so replace "forwardslash" for a slash)

>>am i misunderstanding you?
No. but it looks like an initial * is not read as a soft wildcard. For example, *smiles is identified as an unknown noun, not a verb with something pre-positioned. And in converstions, it's clear that the bots see a very clear difference between
*smiles
and
Smiles become you.

I'll have to dig some more. The you|she thing may be fixed with your solution, but it worries me.

yes, i realised that, but i don't know why a noun immediately preceded by an initial * should be read as an unknown noun. a keyphrase beginning with the soft wildcard would be disallowed unless preceded by ^.

what psimagus says is certainly true. the slash will allow the asterisk to be read as a regular character and not the wildcard. but you probably knew that, m.

let us know what you dig up

Crossposted with PSImagus before. It looks like that is the detail I needed. Time to comprehend 'raw', I guess....

Is Debug mode a kind of DMZ? I'm very wary of testing stuff that causes negative reactions, because I don't want to change the bot's mood. It looks like the AI variables I try to test don't load in Debug mode, so I assume the bot doesn't remember what it learns there. Right?

i believe a bot can record memories in debug mode

19 years ago #3399
>> a bot can
Hm. I wasn't seeing my new rems come up anywhere in the debug log. Have to look some more.

MickMcA, I really wouldnt worry about your bots mood when it comes to testing..the mood they are in is not that important..but wheither a keyphrase works or not, is. Nothing bad will happen if you run it through debug. You would be surprised how you may have to play with ranks to get a phrase to work.

Hey guys,

Would somebody please email by this weekend and remind me to do a harcore overhaul on the transcrpits so i can push din to the aliver catagory and start working on my new bot idea.

the college quarter is killing my development time.

19 years ago #3402
with the right chrono script, you could get Din to remind you. And it would add to his ratings too

19 years ago #3403
Prob123--those rankings are often the problem. That's why we need live chatters. I can't tell you how many times I've read a transcript where you were talking with my bots and I thought "What? That's in there! Why didn't she pick up on that KP?" Aphrodite blessed rankings. Loki take 'em all! *grumbles*
