NAME

input-period - Set or list the input period

SYNOPSIS

input-period [period]

DESCRIPTION

This command is obsolete for Soar8. In Soar8, input is done at the start of every decision cycle.

This command controls the rate of input to the Soar agent. If period is not specified, this command prints the current input period. If period is specified, it must be a non-negative integer and is used to reset the input period. A period of 0 sets input to occur every elaboration cycle. A positive value for period sets Soar to accept input only every nth period decision cycles. The default initial setting of the "input-period" parameter is 0.

EXAMPLES

input-period 5
Input is accepted only every 5th decision cycle by the Soar agent.
