Just added the option of specifying a expected outcome for a trigger, the syntax is the following:
<trigger expectedOutcome="EVENT(CHARACTER_NAME, ACTION_NAME, ACTION_PARAMETERS)">
<condition>
...
</condition>
<actions>
...
</actions>
</trigger>
Please note that there are no double/single quotes when specifiying the expectedOutcome. Here's an example of a correct expected outcome: expectedOutcome="EVENT(John, Kick, Luke)"
The expected outcome is used in the double appraisal process. If the author decides to specify an expected outcome for a trigger, then that expected outcome is sent to the active agents for them to assess. The response to the query about the expected outcome is used to score the trigger (in the default process the triggers are scored by querying the active agents about each of the narrative actions that will get executed if the trigger is fired).
