Or hearing the 'thrumming of (insert random machine)' that's miles away? distance is also a concept it struggles with.

The T2i has a time limit. If it takes too long to generate, it will time out.

This is just a guess but multiplayer would allow multiple users in the AI Character chat or other generators, the database plug in would allow the generator database to be stored elsewhere, rather than your browser local storage.

if you click edit you can find the prompts used to achieve those styles. copy and paste that on any other generator and you can achieve similar results.

if you double click on the previous responses, you can edit the text. I usually take it and run it through something like Venice AI or something and ask it to rewrite the text in a manner that resembles the natural flow of speech. Paste the new text back in. after about 3 or 4 messages edited like this, it usually fixes itself. it seems the AI bases its speech patterns based on the previous messages.

Which chat are you using? Character Chat or the standard AI chat? for the Character chat make sure long term memories are still turned on. You can also use '/system' commands to give it instructions on behaviors and speech patterns. you can store your slang dictionary in the /lore area to help the AI remember those bits. You can place info there that the AI needs to remember. If you include the instruction (Thought: ) it will force the AI to react considering the info that has been supplied. Additionally if it begins to respond with weird punctuation or something, you can take the 3 previous responses and format them to your preferred format. The AI will follow that patter. I've noticed mine tends to favor em dashes instead of commas. There are several ways you can prompt the AI to behave in your preferred manner.
