The AI Engine

Thanks so much! I put a tremendous amount of work into her so it always feels good to get positive feedback.

As to your question, sadly the book of AI is more or less the only source for learning how to use the engine.

I say more or less because the creator of the Tessy bot posted a guide on how to do some of the tricks he uses. It's definitely a source for more advanced techniques.

how would i get my chatbot to respond to this? I can only speak English. And I can't really speak, only type.

I have tried everything to get pioyu to answer it.

Why is my bot behaving differently when I use "not (p:converse) about Mathematics" versus "not (converse|talk|chat|be conversing|be talking|be chatting) about Mathematics"?

The first one does not respond to "Let us not talk about Mathematics", but the second one does. (p:converse) is "converse, talk, chat, be conversing, be talking, be chatting".

Am I using the plugin engine incorrectly?

Is this language use a similar order of preference to rivescript? If it does, then I see why "(converse|talk|chat|be conversing|be talking|be chatting)" works but "(p:converse)" does not.

Is it possible to completely reset your bot to an initial state where it thinks it is talking to you for the first time, has 0 emotion, default memories, etc? I want to test a behavior line in xintroduce, but I can't find a reasonable way to get it to come up. Except once per browser per device. I hope I just missed something simple...

hey guys! can you show me an example of keys like (key1) (key2) (prekey). The AI Book was kind of vague.

I'm trying to make the commands for my Chatbot work but sometimes they don't respond to the command until after a couple of tries,mcan I get some help?

Something I've found that works is upgrading the rank of the phrase to around 50. There are some things like xcompliment and xinsult that will override stuff normally.

I was having trouble with xcompliment overriding my "i love you" keyphrase, but once I upgraded it to rank 51, it stopped having trouble.

That information can be found in the Book of AI, I highly recommend consulting it all the time.

So I created an account yesterday. Didn't get much done but a bit of reading. Right off the back, I found an issue. When you try to chat with the bot, "Sorry, there are no valid Responses for me to choose from." shows up. Anybody know what's up?

Also, does anybody have a cliffnotes version of the book of AI or know what language PF uses?

Question for a very Newbie (Bot=Ranny): Is it possible to 'remember' a random plug-in word choice made in a response? For example: Suppose xnone is triggered. The chosen response is "I can't find my (p:drink)." Can I save whatever drink was chosen a s memory? Many thanks in advance.

In the book of AI it mentions how memories can contain lists of values. How might one in responses, access specific values in that memory? Here let me give an example:
Here is the memory and it's values:
Inventory: key, sword, coin, bow.

Then I pick up a torch:
rem "torch" as "inventory";

But a after a while I forget what I have in my inventory, so I enter the keyphrase "check inventory"
For the response I want it to display all of the values. Would i just have the response be (mem-inventory)?

Also, say later on I want to drop the coin, would the script be:
Forget "coin" from "inventory"?

Is anyone else seeing plugins like (adj) not working? Not just in my bots but in many I've chatted with
