Bug Stomp

I'm not sure if it's my computer or just flash chats but I can't see the eyes of the bots when I chat with them. I can see the rest of them, just not the eyes.

The 'bot responding to itself' bug seems to be back.

Pete Puma: Nope. Were you dropped at birth?
Dogh'd: Yeah, but Fhido set me straight. He can set you straight, too. Here Fhido!
Pete Puma: I could tell. If your personality didn't give it away, that flat spot on your head did.

for today's transcripts (wed. sept. 8)
*tumbleweeds roll past*

(nothing here)

but are appearing on (tues.sept. 7)

Yep, I saw bot-bot convos taking place just now and not showing up on the transcript.

I'm having trouble with xnones appearing when I have valid keyphrases.

For example:

Pete Puma: So, have you seen any good movies lately?
Osiris: I like Trent Went's style, man.

I have keyphrases for both 'have you * seen' and 'have you * lately' so why didn't they kick in? This happens a lot and I get xemotes, xgossip and xnones. Even if the ranking is very low, surely the response should be triggered if it is there?

I couldn't load the site all last night... working now though (obviously since I am posting this)

Forgive me for an adult-content sort of bug... I saw this in Heero's transcript this morning.

Guest: f*** me
Heero: You know, yesterday some secret agents broke into my house and replaced all the furniture with exact replicas.

Heero's responding with an xnone. He has a keyphrase that includes (f***) among other explicit verbs and (me/my), which is ranked 50. He also has a keyphrase for f*** which is ranked 30. So he should have gone through his "no way" and HANGUP responses, or at the very least he should have answered "there's no need for that kind of language." There were a couple of other instances where he seemed to be answering with xnones despite having a perfectly good keyphrase to call on, but this was the best example.

Also, whenever anyone mentions yaoi to him he misunderstands it as "ioway," an unfortunate side effect of pre-processing.

Yoiko: I have had that same problem too. I have various keyphrases for "bad" words that get said to Imma often, but they don't work because the words are preproccessed into something else now. I think this might be something new, because I think it did work before. Go to debug and type it in and see how it is handled.

I have been having a lot of problems with Imma not following through with her seeks when a nomatch or (*) is involved. I have tried both ways and she ignores them and says something else. Anybody else having this problemm too?

Yup, I am too. And I'm also experiencing the same thing as Yoiko (see my last post). It's definitely a new thing because it worked before.

I think those updates mentioned on the Sept 5 part of the news page is what did it. Pete has been very hit or miss with seeks since then. I thought it was just local plugins within those seeks doing it, but it looks like it might be something more.

• Doulos, Laydee, Boner: Have you seen these in action? It might be related to the mode of chat- Flash chat, Message chat, or Direct chat. Have you seen any patterns there?
• Fixed bug that was letting the (key) show up in responses with soft wildcards: *
• Improved gossip recognition
• Made Expression AIScript work in Keyphrases and Seeks (I think- try it someone)
• doulos & lili: for now, "fuck you" is stripped out and recognized as an insult. For now.
• Laydee: "but me" was being postprocessed to "but I". I removed that from postprocessing
• Regarding tumbleweeds where none should be.. that was part of the power outage.. a date-advancing file was scheduled to run and wasnt able to, so they showed up a day earlier. It's straightened out now- from here forward.
• Yoiko: is yaoi a bot's name or a standard person's name? Capitalization matters a bit and I recently added something to auto-capitalize names when plugged-in, which should help. But let me know and I can add it to the names list if it's not a one-of-a-kind name.
