Manual:Verbot Editor Using the Teaching.vkb KnowledgeBase

From VerbotWiki

Who needs an Editor?
The Teaching.vkb KnowledgeBase allows new Rules to be dynamically added while chatting with the Standard Player. You may want to open the Teaching.vkb KnowledgeBase to see how the Learning Rules have been setup. You may also want to tweak Inputs to your own preference using the um... the Editor :)

Note: This feature can only be used if you own Verbot Standard Edition and is not supported by the Free Verbot Player.
How to use the Teaching.vkb
To teach the Verbot while chatting with the Standard Edition Player do the following:

Make sure that the Verbot Standard Edition player has the required KnowledgeBases loaded and selected. Teacher.vkb and LearnedKnowledge.vkb should be loaded and checked.

Note: Wondering what the difference between a .vkb file and a .ckb file is? Click (http://www.verbots.com/wiki/Main_Page#Glossary) here to find out.


To teach the Verbot something new type into the Input box on the Verbot Player and press "Enter".
For example type in: What is a gizmo?



The Verbot will respond with something along the lines of "I don't know" or some other response depending on the KnowledgeBases you have loaded.
Type in: remember a Gizmo is a special device.
Then press the "Enter" key.



Julia will say something along the lines of: I'll be sure to remember that.
To test her type in: What is a gizmo? Press the "Enter" key.



Julia will now respond with: A Gizmo is a special device
Note: This is a new feature and we will be adding and tweaking the Teacher.vkb KnowledgeBase in coming updates. You may also want to create your own learning Rules using the Verbot Scripting Editor.
The Teacher.vkb contains various sample learning Rules that you can use to dynamically add Rules while interacting with the Verbot. You may also add your own learning Rules to capture different kinds of Inputs.
Note: When editing the default Teacher.vkb file, you may have to compile it to a .ckb file in order to interact with your changes in the Verbot Player.
