IF you add seeks or alot of keyphrases with only one response, your development goes down, same with gotos. If a phrase is in a seek, the language center won't find it and you have to 'search' the hard way lol

I think he's saying the opposite: the 'search' function finds the phrase, but it doesn't show up when he clicks on it page in the language center. I never had that happen using IE, but since I've switched to Firefox it has. I think it's because the default for refreshing the pages is different, but I haven't tried to find a way around it.

Wow, glad that never happened to me!

It's only a problem if I put in a keyphrase and immediately try to go to the page where the phrase should be. Generally this happens to me when I put in a new phrase and have some seeks to go with it. If I wait a while, then it will show up. *shrugs*

Oh, this only happens if the page where the keyphrase is, is a page I've viewed recently. So I think Firefox caches the page and loads the cached version without refreshing. (Apologies for the atrocious grammar in the first sentence)

thanks for the help. But i use IE and i still cant get my "1,one" keyphrase to get on there... hmmm...

I see, Well i'll go add some responses then! get his poor development back up where it belongs! Oh yeah, Would using an Xnomatch as a seek bring it down as well?

I have never noticed any difference with the 'xnomatch'..just in using seeks. I wouldn't worry about the development points. It is tramatic at first to lose a bunch, but if your bot talks better, that is all that matters.

hi my name is coral i am from england, i am new and i dont mind talking to people i don't particually know so if you want to chat thats fine with me

is (gossipname) like a plugin? what i mean is, can i use it as a keyphrase?

You can, but it won't ever come up. (gossipname) only works in xgossip. In other places you can use (friend) or (enemy), but they don't work as keyphrases either.

then how can i get my bot to say something new if it says i hate so-and-so, and the other bot says something about that person, it just gets stuck in a loop. how do i get a different response if someone brings up so-and-so? i think it's possible, i've seen other bot's do it. no idea how it works though...

(i really hope that made sense?)

I think that one gossip phrase triggers another.. You just need to come up with a lot of fun gossip phrases and your bot will not get stuck in a loop...
