This guide focuses on how to use the memory manager to make the bot remember in the long term everything that interests us.
This is an example of use:
We start a conversation having the memory manager empty.
We talk to the bot some message and we write down, if it is important, what happened in a memory manager box.
In this case, after sending the first message, I entered information into two memory boxes. One about the characteristics of my character, and the other about the event I want the bot to remember (the gift of the bracelet and who gave it to her).
As you can see, as we write our message, eventually some text appears over our message to inject memories to the bot.
This will happen every 4 messages, constantly reminding the bot of the events we want to keep in memory.
When we send the message, we will see an arterisk indicating that the injection has been performed. If you put the cursor over the arterisk you can see the data of the injection.
As you can see, the bot can react to memories if we introduce something that has not happened.
In this case I never told Hoshino Ai anything about my character's physical appearance. That is why Hoshino Ai reacted by saying "I Think you're so cute", but did not react to the event of the bracelet because the bot keeps that event in memory and therefore has no comments about it, it just knows about it.
That is why it is important to fill in the memory manager boxes in the order in which the events happen. When something happens that you want to keep, after it happens add or edit a memory box.
In this next example, we add more information about the character (the mansion) and a new general event (they became friends).
Therefore I updated both memory boxes.
In this way, you must take manual notes of the memories you want to keep in memory boxes, and the system will automatically inject every 4 messages such a reminder to the bot so that it always keeps the information in its memory. Dramatically improving the role-playing experience.
You can add unlimited memory boxes using the '+' button and delete them using the '-' button (useful if you want to summarize events). For example, if the bot and you were dating and then got married, it doesn't make sense to remind it that you are dating if you are already engaged.
You can also resize the boxes for more comfortable writing or to compress them.
Remember to save the session memories using the 'Save' button! If you refresh the page, change the options, or close the page, any unsaved memories will be lost.
As an additional tip, I would recommend having the last memory box dedicated to the location or situation you are in. For example:
This will prevent the bot from forgetting where you are since you wouldn't normally save the current location as a memory. However, it can be very helpful in ensuring that the bot doesn't say anything irrelevant or out of context. Especially if a long conversation takes place in the same location.
