Super excited to generate something interesting this year.
This year I have a sort of incremental strategy. Not totally sure how much time I can devote but I have some grand plans. The key points are below.

• Basic "Story Embryo" structure and episodic chapters. Sort of like Story Compiler from 2015.
• Some world state that persists between chapters(Simulationist)
• Use some planner that takes PDDL so the characters have plans on how to solve issues. This will be sort of difficult to figure out how to setup a planner but I think possible to use or make one if needed
• "Personal Worldviews" A global view of how the world works would what is actually possible in a story but characters might have incomplete views and while trying to carry out a plan fail. A simple example is a character wants to get from A to B but there is a C in their way. This means their plan will fail and they will have to get a new plan. I think Talespin used something similar.

There are some other things I would like to investigate but probably are beyond the scope of what I can do.

• Emotion states. How characters are feeling and how that causes them to change their plans
• Personality traits. Maybe the four Keirsey Temperaments
• Conversations. Text templating is easy but I am interested if there is some way to do it deeper.

Going to be using Clojure to do this.

This sounds really interesting! Planners are easier to write than they seem. I did one for scene-sequel in 2014 or 2015, which you could look at if you're not sure how to go about it.
