Personality

cool, thanks

"HANGUP" means the bot is tired of talking to you. This happens when it fails to understand what you've said 5-6 times in short succession. The window is supposed to close but that doesnt work in Debug.

I was more concerned about her not understanding compound sentences. She still refuses to understand the sentence I described, and I just can't see why. I'm sure I'll work it out.

I understand with HANGUP but it's shown up in real conversations before

Melody, sometimes that happens when the ranking is not high enough. When there are a bunch of words in front of whatever your bot is supposed to respond to, it may not see it if the rank is low.

She's a doctor now though, and she's not responding appropriately to just "why not?" by itself, and there's keyphrases for why not, why and not. I put this in bug stomp too, and I gather other people are having the same problem, so at least it's just not me . However, even though I'm a new convert I have ultimate faith in PF.

BD meant the rank of the phrase, not nessacarily your bots rank.

Ah... ok I played with the rankings to test that. I even put some up really high to see if that would help, no luck

it takes a little while to get the hang of adjusting those, try also putting a few phrases at much lower ranks to see if that helps any at all.

Will do. Ta

The issue you're discussing I fixed today. Details are in Bug Stomp.

I've unleashed some of the big new features (see the News). As you try out the new plug-ins in your Keyphrases and Responses, please post what works well here, so we can collectively get a good idea of how to use them. I'm also open to making changes if it would help with the AI.

The first thing is that it's better to use (key1) or (postkey) instead of (subj) as the the new plug-ins will be better supported.
