[QOL] [Feature] State AI Laws (Advanced)

State AI Laws (Advanced)


- Renamed "State Laws 1-3" to "State Standard Laws" because, uh, that's what it does. It doesn't actually state laws 1-3

- New AI Verb: State Laws (Advanced). Allows the AI to state laws out of order, skip laws, and even renumber them to match the new order provided. Neat!

Pushed an update.

You can now specify an optional, and arbitrary, renumbering like so:

"1;3=2;4=3"
to do
1. Law 1
2. Law 3
3. Law 4

i am Not an ai main but this seems really nice to have, i think

This is quite neat, i'd suggest naming the 'standard laws' one to 'State Asimov Laws'

I was gonna name it that until someone reminded me that they're not Asimov either :]

kurt found a bug where if you type "1;1;1" in, you get really odd results.

I've commit a fix to the pull request, but the fix is to add the following code:

Code:

// 1;1;1 becomes 1:list() and 1=2;1=3 becomes 1:(2,3), so we need to break the results down into one association per index
    
    var/found = 0
    for (var/index in laws_to_state)
        if(laws_to_state[index])
            for (var/association in laws_to_state[index])
                if(association)
                    laws_to_state[index] = association
                    found = 1
                    break
                    
            if(!found)
                laws_to_state[index] = null
                
            found = 0

after

Code:

laws_to_state = params2list(state)

Does it let the AI just state law 1 a few hundred times?

[UrsulaMejor]

negative; duplicates are condensed down to one statement per law
