Nothing new?

I noticed that the bots were deactivated for a few days. I know this really cool bot that has much more advanced knowledge. To chat with it you guys can visit its website and click on the button at the bottom the screen as you've entered the website: https://alexandrabot.com

@AlexandraFontaine: the bot on this website does force us to log into facebook messenger.
When you click the blue icon from your screenshots, it says [Log into messenger] or [Continue as guest].
If you click [Continue as guest], then it says "Chat with Alexandrabot // Hi, nice to meet you! Let's talk. // [Continue]".
Then if you press [Continue], it just says the same thing again.
If you try logging out of messenger in your browser, and then visit the site, you will see what we are seeing.

@jkroker the bot doesn't force you to log in to Facebook my friend. Those who doesn't have facebook has an option "Continue as Guest". I have logged out of my facebook and enter the website again and clicked on "Continue as Guest" and it works fine, you can take a look at my screenshot: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fJcC8MnVSN_R7kW6gbn6gMz815sYscAYL-RHKkjpcTo/edit?usp=sharing

Lmao, your bit knows how much is x/infinity.

my pop up blocker must have blocked the button.i am not disabling my pop up blocker off.

Hey Maryguise, I made an extremely basic highlighter for Notepad++. I'd prefer it to be better, but I can't even figure out what lexer N++ uses... I've had much better luck with Visual Studio Code, but even then the syntax algorithms really don't like the way language files are written.

Are new features worth using? If so, in what way?

copy seeks are certainly useful, Palacinkyman. It's replacing needing to copy a bunch of seeks and gotos with one AIScript line, as well as being more resilient to changes - I'll use it going forward for menus, though my bot isn't very... bottish. Feels like the main addition for me. Comments are always good! I have 10 responses to a seek, I don't want to have to read through each response and AIScript to work out if it is doing what I wanted it to. Continue is useful for adding something in - or if you have a seek that would be a copy of another seek/KP, but, for example, you have to have the bot go somewhere or lead into it in some other way.

Personally, I don't like replacing xnomatch with #nomatch, but that's a me thing, mainly what I'm used to - plus it makes me wary of using # to denote not implemented/placeholders as I have been previously.

You can safely use #whatever for your non-matchable keyphrases. It's meant to be unmatchable - only accessible by gotos or continues.

The Combined Bot Template and macros are by far the biggest part of the upgrade. The Kephrases it contains will be tweaked as I gather data from more people using it.

I have problems with gotos, they dont work since the update, when I click on them when designing the bot, it writes: missing bot ID. What should I do?

Copy seeks? where is it and could it be used instead of goto?
