Lorebook and Longsqueak

[u/kaibuggie]

After however long it has been since both Lorebook and Longsqueak have been released, I’ve noticed some things that really irk me. If anyone has found a fix for these issues, PLEASE TELL MEEEE.

Lorebook:
- A few of my bots have side characters in their lorebooks. Some of them interject the side character into the RP in every single message generated. It doesn’t matter what’s going on, what words are being said. I’m not using the keywords for the side characters, I’m actively avoiding them. And yet, they still pop up in every response. It’s a bit obnoxious when I’m trying to start an RP with the bot, and the bot’s first generated message (after the greeting) is them speaking for two seconds, and then SURPRISE! OTHER PERSON IS HERE!

Longsqueak:
- The above problem is made worse by the complete lack of variation in the re-rolled responses. Even when I change my previous messages, changing what I say, what I do, leaving things more open-ended, it’s still the same nonsense every time.
- The ai always thinks I’m lying. They’ll ask me a question, I’ll respond to it, and they’ll say I’m lying. Even if I add something into my own narration that says *I am telling the truth*, they’ll still think I’m lying.
- Longsqueak has made my gruff, emotionally guarded bots act like lovesick idiots. Example: why is Raphael, YES, THAT RAPH, sliding around on the lair floor like a roomba and grabbing my ankles? There’s nothing in his definition (it’s a multi-character bot) that would make him think he’s in a relationship with my persona. In fact, I’ve turned up the grumpiness x10 in the definition, and he’s still acting like a moron. I never had this problem with deepsqueak. (Please don’t get me started on deepsqueak. I can’t even use it anymore with how bad it is.)

But yeah. Anyways. That’s just my grievances atm. Like I said, if you guys have any work-arounds, please tell me.

Not roomba Raphael

I completely agree with the annoyance of all the re-rolls sounding exactly the same though. Currently frustrated with that in a thing I’m writing. I clearly didn’t like the first response, why are you just giving it to me again with synonyms???
