AltTopic class | actor.t[4589]

An AltTopic is a TopicEntry that can be located inside another TopicEntry; to provide an alternative response to the same conversational commands when its isActive property is true. An AltTopic takes precedence over its enclosing TopicEntry when its active property is true, but otherwise takes most of its properties (apart from its topicResponse) from the TopicEntry in which it is located. You can have as many AltTopics as you like associated with any given TopicEntry; the one that will be used will be the last to be defined for which isActive is true.

We match if our location matches, but if it does match we add our relative source text order to our location's match score to give us a higher score the later we're defined after our associated TopicEntry.
