A criterion is a match condition. If it doesn't match, it scores 0. If it does match, the score is its weight value.
The Response system checks each rule against the set, give it a numeric score based on the rule's set of criteria. Then the system picks one rule with the highest score, dispatch a response that the rule points.

Many keyvalue pairs are updated in ModifyOrAppendCriteria( AI_CriteriaSet& set )
& CAI_ExpresserHost_DoModifyOrAppendCriteria( CAI_BaseNPC *pSpeaker, AI_CriteriaSet& set )
and player and NPC codes.
Also mappers can set keyvalue pairs via the Context system.
