One of my bots complained, "I've got too many gotos in a row."

What is too many gotos in a row?

I assume it's when you goto a set of responses that include a goto, that goes to another set of responses containing a goto... etc. How many is "too many" is a moot point. I've never had that error myself, though I've seen it.

wow - so now i've experienced x-noneitis and hangup syndrome too. i thought it was a myth

Nope, not a myth

We wish it was a myth, though.

Yeah, don't we.

I've been unable to import my bot's language centre because of the following error message:

ERROR: Your Keyphrase is too long. Keyphrases should be short and general, and lists should only cover the most likely possibilities. Please shorten to under 150 characters.

Is there any way to (quickly) find which keyphrase is causing the error? I haven't been able to find it so far.

Thanks

I can't help but notice how annoying it is to have to do a search for your keyphrase if you want to add lots of seeks. For example, I was making it so that JT could sing 'Imagine' by A Perfect Circle (originally by John Lennon) line by line, and I had to keep entering the keyphrase into the search box and doing a search on it before each seek.

Would it be possible to make the keyphrase that was just added automatically appear in the Language Center by itself once the page loads? Kind of the same as searching for that keyphrase, only it would appear once you add that keyphrase to your bot. Is this even making any sense?

It's easy enough to check if you have Textpad - sort the lines so all the keyphrases are at the beginning (see Personality forum message #3906 for more detailed coverage of this.)
Then position your mouse pointer level with column 150 (or stick a small piece of paper to the screen at that level,) and use page down to scroll through looking for lines that pass the 150 mark. It's probably possible to sort by line length, but given that I was able to check mine (7600 lines) in about a minute this way, I haven't bothered to look it up.

I find that I have four keyphrases longer than this limit:
153, 157, 160, 164 characters long. But it's been so long since I was able to import, and they work perfectly well, so I see no need to change them.

Yes, perfect sense. It would be a very useful feature, but only the Prof could implement it or know how much effort it would take to implement.

Use the normal load check box on your upload and it should stop at the problem The expert box doesnt show the lines..It takes more time, but it also shows any duplications with a 2x after the lines, very handy!

I'd be nice if you could somehow delete memories through a keyphrase or seek. I'm trying to do a mad lib system...it seems to work, but once it's over, you have a bunch of junk memories left which have to be deleted manually. You just need to remember that they played, not every answer they gave you.
