I have found something interesting about the aiml file set though.

Interesting, I might try it with my bot.

Be very interested to hear what you think - It would seem that those extra files make the bot more knowledgeable, but not particularly smarter - if that makes sense.

Can a "question" have multiple answers?

In other words, if you enter a question twice, with a different answer each time, are there 2 possible answers (chosen later at random) or will the second of the two answers entered overwrite the first?

(When I looked at the AIML files, it seemed like some of the trigger phrases had multiple available/matching responses)

Yeah, you could use random answers for a question, like this:

Question box: Who is Martin64
Answer box: <random><li>He is my creator.</li><li>He is a vbulletin.org hacker</li></random>

[trilOByte]

You can define multiple answers by using <li>**</li> tags and then listing all the different answes. The bot will randomly select one. Dont write out the same question over and over as the bot will either just pick up the first, or fall over alltogether.

If you want to get it to work well, then spend a little time working out how aiml works. Defining atomic subjects and <srai> tags.

Read this for an outline of how to write some basic aiml.

will it only answer questions EXACTLY like the ones you enter, or will it respond to similar ones.

Martin64 - I've installed this and everything appears to be in order, but the bot doesn't seem to recognise the new commands I've entered. I've run the botload file and it says it inserted 1 new category. Any ideas?

I'd like to incorporate simple commands like:

!help
!commands

etc.

I added these as questions as they appear above, i.e. !help as the question. Isn't this possible?

gah, i thought it was updated to automaticaly add the things you add into the bot's mind... Ill have to make this hack better for you guys, so that it makes it when you hit submit it instantly learns it.
