what the heck? ive been updating my bot like crazy and the ai is still 0! (277) hot! somethins up...
Don't worry - the development points are incremented daily (at about 11: 00 GMT if memory serves me right, though there've been a lot of server changes since I last checked that,) so your bot's development will shoot up then
plugins let you list commonly used word/short phrases instead of having to repeat long lists of words in keyphrases or responses (you can use them in either: in a response it will return a random entry from the specified plugin, in a keyphrase it will match any individual entry in the plugin.)

IMHO,
1. It is not necessary for a bot to be BIG, in order for it to be GOOD. The only bot of mine that with which I am fully satisfied is "Ililiyira", which is in fact rather small.
2. It is not necessary for a bot to ACT HUMAN, in order to be GOOD. I add that you will only drive yourself crazy if you set out to make a bot that consistently acts human. Be that as it may, we already have almost 7 billion humans, have you met them all? Let us honor diversity and recognize that bots are different from humans, and have their own special charms!

When I have a keyphrase
(aux)
where (aux) is a plugin I made, the bot performs as expected.
When I have a keyphrase
(pron_subj)
where (pron_subj) is a plugin I made, the bot performs as expected.
When, however, I use the keyphrase
(aux) (pron_subj)
, then debug can't find it and gives me xnone instead.
Can anyone explain this???

Is it possible to get the AIengine to stop substituting 'synonyms' into responses? Often these 'synonyms' completely garble what I was trying to (get the bot to) say. Almost always they create something that is out of character for the bot.
Recently I had written something like "just in case" and the AIengine interpreted "case" as "case in law" and substituted accordingly. What would have been a good response was turned into garbage.
There really are only a few synonym pairs in English; words which are normally classed as 'synonyms' in Thesauri almost always have some significant difference in meaning.
IMHO, the function of the AIengine is to realize our bots, not to try to improve on them.
