NAME

max-elaborations - Set or list the maximum elaborations allowed

SYNOPSIS

max-elaborations [count]

DESCRIPTION

This command sets and prints the maximum number of elaboration cycles allowed. If count is not given, this command prints the current number of elaboration cycles allowed. If count is given, it must be a positive integer and is used to reset the number of allowed elaboration cycles.

The "max-elaborations" parameter controls the maximum number of elaborations allowed in a single decision cycle. After this limit has been reached in a decision cycle, Soar proceeds to decision phase even if quiescence hasn't really been reached yet. The default initial setting of the "max-elaborations" parameter is 100.
