Janitor AI's default lorebook system is pretty neat but there are multiple specific interactions that it can't facilitate. For example, mentioning a faction's name randomly selects one of its members (rather than all of them), while still allowing multiple members to be mentioned by their own names. While I can do close-enough workarounds, they are very token-inefficient and never come close to the ideal interaction.

I considered using the existing Advanced Lorebook templates to have more customization but I knew too little of Javascript to understand it. One day, I discovered Tydorius' Multiple Character Drop-In Drop-Out Lorebook Template, which I then modified with generous helpings of DeepSeek's assistance. It works well enough in my testing so maybe it'll work for you.

Features:

• Randomized Selection: Optional parameter allowing cascades to randomly select one or more Entries rather than all of them. This is intended for when you want to randomly select one member of a faction when mentioning it without selecting the rest.

  • Randomization Options: Weighted randomization allows asymmetric choice distribution, and the amount of entries to select can also be random (e.g. a range of 1~3).

• Cascading Triggers: Activating an entry can activate linked entries (e.g. mentioning a group will mention one or more of its members)

  • Adjustable Depth: Can specify the amount of "layers" a cascade can reach, starting from 1 (only the next related entry and no further) and defaults to 3.

  • Anti-Recursion Measures: A system is in place to avoid activating an entry that's already triggered.

• Context Detection: Scans recent messages to see if a character has been mentioned using the script's Message Depth option.

• Familiar Functions: Entries can also use the following parameters seen in the default lorebook system: probability, secondary keywords, minMessages, case sensitivity, constant.

• maxMessages Variable: Now you can implement entries that are temporary

• Various Failsafes: The system has a bunch of debug messages and fallback defaults.

• Detailed Debug Logs: This is for those who know how to use the Debug panel when testing scripts. Comes with a variety of parameters. Debug mode can also be disabled, just in case.

• Syntax Examples and Templates: To help people use the template, I've added quick references and templates at the bottom of the script for ease of access.

• Pre-made Default Setting: A cozy slice-of-life world set in a fictional high school in Davao City, Philippines. This is mostly so you can test the systems first before tweaking it yourself. (Note: I have never been to Davao so everything's made up.)

I would like to thank Tydorius for his template and Icehellionx for extra assistance. The premade bot setup isn't particularly good but it does the job enough as a tech demo.

Updates:

26/03/09: Entry registration automated, no longer needs manual registration commands
25/10/18: Added maxMessages variable (defaults to 0 which is "unlimited")
