Neural Network Modifiers
There are a few ways to affect the weights of the neural network
- Feeding a wolf encourages the last action with the last event
- Saying "good dog" and other similar phrases also encourages wolves, saying the opposite has the opposite effect
- Feeding a potion to a wolf will reset its neural network to a random state
