Patch Notes: Better Bots & Smarter Words This update focuses on making the AI more reliable, fixing dictionary bugs, and making special card searches much more accurate. AI Improvements Fixed AI Freezing: Bots will no longer get stuck "thinking" indefinitely. If they can't find a word, they will now correctly discard and move on. Difficulty Balance: We’ve synced the AI’s brain with their difficulty level. Easy bots stay in the easy dictionary, while Hard bots now properly use the full range of complex words. Word & Dictionary Fixes Dictionary Cleanup: We’ve organized our word lists so that harder dictionaries now include all the words from the easier ones. Better Multi-Word Logic: Fixed a bug where the AI would get confused and switch dictionaries in the middle of looking for multiple words. Card Mechanic Updates Smarter Wildcards: Wildcard cards are now much more efficient. Instead of guessing randomly, they now specifically look for letters that actually complete words in the dictionary. Flexible Bigrams: Bigram cards (like TH) are now more versatile. The AI will now check both the standard order and the reversed "dyslexic" order (HT) to find the best possible play. Technical Tweaks Performance Boost: Added a "search cap" to prevent the game from slowing down during high-level calculations. Stability: Fixed a rare crash that could happen when the game was first loading its word data.
