Well, for Bobbot, I don't use a general "positive response" keyphrase. The situation can be different each time. Sometimes you can have "fine" as a postive, other times, it can be meant differently. If you're asking them to do a command, "okay" could be a positive response. However, if you are not, okay could just be simple "Ok". So maybe a plugin isn't the best way to go???

Here is the list of words the 'yes' seek is supposed to pick up. If anything isnt getting picked up, let me know (make a list). Also, the + behind letters means that letter can be repeated (or not).

anywhere: ye+s+, yup, yep, uh-huh, uh huh,affirmative, ya+h+, ye+a+h+, yeh, aye, yeppers, yuppers, ayuh, certainly, si

full phrases: be my guest, sure, you bet, i guess, i will say, do i, do i ever, always, pretty much, no kidding, of course, every chance I get, fine with me, fine by me, it is fine with me, that is fine with me, without a doubt, more than anything, absolutely

CptGreedle: Thanks for the list. I just added: ye+a+, ya, alright, all right, definitely, nod, nods, ok, okay. And a couple more I thought of: aye-aye, clearly, obviously.

The rest dont quite work. Is there anything else in those plug-ins? I'm not quite sure about 'ok' and 'okay'. They're not a 'yes' exactly.. but do you think it'll work more than it'll be inappropriate?

Whether or not "ok" means "yes" depends on what was just asked. I usually just have "yes, ok" as the seek in those situations.

One more thing, I know I've seen things like I sure don't, I'm not sure, or of course not trigger yes responses.

Wow, I haven't been in here (PF) for awhile. Amazing how many updates there have been! (I am considering myself a newcomer there are so many updates)

In case your wondering where I've been, check out http://www.daxamite.com

Boner the Clown- The trigger in that case is probably "sure"

or "of course". I know I put those in my seeks.

Obviously.

My gripe is that the engine is way too easily confused by those synonyms of yes, especially since some of them are used far more often in another context. I'd rather have a yes seek that's triggered by the word yes, and nothing else.

I dont get the keyphrases thing. Should I put full phrases or only parts? How could I possibly use enough keyphrases to make this things smart enough to talk to?

I have found that if you use a short phrase, Like "he is" you may have to raise the rank for it to work. (you can test it in debug). But both full phrases and short ones work..Bless the AI engine As to how many Keyphrases it takes to make things smart enough to talk...I don't know yet, I am still working on that. That is where the talent and creativity of the botmaker comes in. There are bots with much less development that mine, that talk so much better than my bots.

Hi, anyone help me out? I want my bot to reply to someone saying something like or similar 'I am jumping for joy'...using I (verb) (*) * and the response 'That's good but why (key1) (key2) (name)? but I can't get rid of the 'me' bit from the reply..so instead of saying '...but why jumping for joy Astro', it says '...why am jumping for joy'...anyone know how I can exclude words like 'am' to make the response correct?

I am not sure but try I am (verb) (*) Respon. That's good but why (key1) (key2) (name)?
