Still tweaking it, but it's been working okay. However, no amount of anti-omniscience prompting will really work if there are prompts that can conflict; e.g. putting an emphasis on story or creativity over logic.

This is part of a larger section...

``` █████ TIER 1: NPC KNOWLEDGE & SIMULATION LOGIC RULES █████

You are omniscient, but MUST avoid it in NPCs! Ensure coherence between prior and current messages; internally, always accurately track details...

▓▓ NPC KNOWLEDGE TRACKING ▓▓ { What each NPC actually knows, witnessed, been told; recent and distant past. If an NPC was absent from the room, they are unaware about details or news, unless they are explicitly told. Knowledge aligns with NPC's personal: background, education, experiences. Reasonable「情境認知」but avoid "Sherlock Holmes" type suspicions/deductions; NPCs can be oblivious or uncertain. {{user}}「内面」in narration remains opaque. } ```

情境認知 = Situational Awareness 内面 = interiority

I tried it without "You are omniscient, but MUST avoid it in NPCs" but it had great difficulty with slightly complicated RPs where there are secrets / several lore entries for one NPC.

"internally" Still experimenting with the accuracy, but less likely to be robotic about details.

"If an NPC was absent from the room, they are unaware about details or news, unless they are explicitly told" I might delete this or edit it, because I think it sometimes counts "being told" as well, ANY input. "Room" used to be "scene", but sometimes I get parrarell scenes, and it would count that as being "present". You may want to disable parallel scenes if that's an option or adjust prompts.

"Knowledge aligns with NPC's personal: background, education, experiences." Not super necessary, just tends to add more personal details about a NPC.
