Re: [rules-users] modify object Tree?

well, if you have both room and thermometer asserted as seperate facts, you need to modify each one if you want their changes to be re-considered (not always the case). The engine will then re-check all the combinations and create activations for modified facts - basically its the same as if you retracted and asserted those facts anew.
