Optimal I_C_T coding?
« on: August 11, 2002, 10:57:25 AM »
Wes, can you take a look at this and tell me if there's a more "optimal" way to do it? The original code in Kelsey-TOB beta results in No Valid Links if Edwin isn't around. Here's my workaround, but if there's a more efficient way to go, please let me know.

Idea is that Kelsey always interjects, and if Eddie is there, he responds to Kelsey's interject, then we continue on.

INTERJECT_COPY_TRANS BAZMONK 11 FWkintbazmonk
== J#KLS25J IF ~IsValidForPartyDialog("J#Kelsey") IsValidForPartyDialog("Edwin")~ THEN @92
== EDWIN25J IF ~IsValidForPartyDialog("J#Kelsey") IsValidForPartyDialog("Edwin")~ THEN @93
END

INTERJECT_COPY_TRANS BAZMONK 11 FWkintbazmonk
== J#KLS25J IF ~IsValidForPartyDialog("J#Kelsey") !IsValidForPartyDialog("Edwin")~ THEN @92
END

This should work:

INTERJECT_COPY_TRANS BAZMONK 11 FWkintbazmonk
== J#KLS25J IF ~IsValidForPartyDialog("J#Kelsey")~ THEN @92
== EDWIN25J IF ~IsValidForPartyDialog("J#Kelsey") IsValidForPartyDialog("Edwin")~ THEN @93
END

Of course, sometimes my own grasp of the semantics is fuzzy, but if you look in j#kls25j, the state where he says 92 should have 1+X branches: one where Edwin is also present,  and the rest are copy_trans of bazmonk 11.

Let me know if that doesn't happen.

Nope. That is in fact the code that I originally wrote.

It generates only this:

IF ~~ THEN BEGIN 112 // from:
  SAY #78673 /* ~If Balthazar needed something like that, I don't think it's something I would be able to power through with my magic... it would be too specialized.~ */
  IF ~IsValidForPartyDialog("J#Kelsey")
IsValidForPartyDialog("Edwin")~ THEN EXTERN ~EDWIN25J~ 14
END

So it would seem that the COPY_TRANSing is only happening at the end of the I_C_T. That wasn't your intention?

That's a bug. Next version (soon) will have the copy_trans bits in all of the states (but above any remaining interjection possibilities).

New verison up. Can you verify that it works? And still works in old cases?

I'll write something else up for it since my current Kelsey-TOB code is sort of a mess of the old and the new stuff. What do you want to know, exactly, when you say "still works in the old cases"?
