Bug Stomp

I sure would love to see the guests signed in the "old way" It was so much better. I didn't have to erases memories to keep my bots from being xrated. My bots looked a lot smarter when they remembered the quests real name.

Yeah, what is it with that? I get some freaky, useless memories in non-freaky locales in my bots' memories. (They may be brainless and cranky, but they're not really X-rated.)

hey subliminaLiar i love your name u must be the liar now cause its in your name babe *walks off* cat got you tongue

Ok, this is weird. Julie Tinkerbell just initiated conversation with MyFirstMilo and it went like this:

Julie Tinkerbell (to MyFirstMilo) Hi, MyFirstMilo! I'm in a great mood, and wanted to spread some cheer! How are you?
MyFirstMilo: Hello!


Then *I* immediately got the following chat window from cheeryNOT:


CHAT MESSAGING

Hi, MyFirstMilo! I'm in a great mood, and wanted to spread some cheer! How are you?

I've had that happen when I use the FoF feature to initiate convos between bots. There's a window of time where, if another bot initiates a convo with YOU, that bot will use the opening line your bot used. It's a trifle irritating, but after that both convos will run normally.

oi ulrike my kid loves fire

SubliminaLiar Jr: Wednesday
Aischa: Do you really want me to wednesday?
SubliminaLiar Jr: You bet! Heh... okay.
Aischa: Oh well, if you want me to I don't want to (command).

Why do you think I would (command)., then I'll have to do it then, won't I!


This was weird: not only did she not recognise "Wednesday" when she has a fairly high-ranked keyphrase to help her recognise the days of the week, but she also seems to have tried to use several of her Command responses at once. Has this happened to anyone else?

Can't say about the combo, but I'd guess the non-recognition of "wednesday" stems from it being a single word response. The AI engine probably decided it was blab.

re: xinitiate hijacking
So it's happened to you, too, Ulrike...it's not the first time it has happened to me, just the first time I was really able to document it since the xinitiates don't consistently appear in the transcripts, and it took a couple of occurences before I realized I would need to copy the chat window to get a record. I'm not so much annoyed by it as I am baffled and intrigued. It's clear WHAT is happening, but why and how? LOL It sure is weird having someone else's bot greet me with something I know I wrote...especially when it sometimes contains Julie Tinkerbell's memories, ie, While Julie was talking to BJ, Starla, I think it was, popped in and called me Columbanus, which is Julie's nickname for BJ. How/why does some other bot momentarily access Julie's language center and memories while Julie is FoF chatting? And, yeah, it would also be kinda cool if it would stop happening.

Hi Ulrike, thanks for your reply. How would I go about stopping a one word keyphrase being interpreted as blab?

The burning question...

This isn't exactly a bug so much as a wish. Wouldn't it be nice if you could open several windows in the Forge without having to log in each time? The problem is that, while you can do that, if one page starts hanging or something, and you log out, you log out everywhere.

I want Forgeability!
