Is there way to have this script access hal's brain for a new topic, instead of having to load them in the script?
In hal's basicResponses section there is a sub section called newTopic, then topic. There is already a huge list of ideas for new topics there. It seems like it would be better to access something already there, instead of adding overhead to the scripts.
When Robert made a way to update to the current database, he basicly made a script to add/remove information directly to/from the database. I wonder if you could make a seperate installer for your script? The installer would be a script/program that would open that topic section, and insert your new entries. Then the script you have load each time Hal loads would have only code, not information.
It does sound dangerous, but I am concerned about the amount of information that is having to be loaded and processed during initial load, and for each response.
What do you think?
