1.2.5

Deeper body-language practice — and a fix for a habit the app was accidentally teaching. • Not everything means something. Practice now deliberately mixes in moments where the honest read is "nothing is actually going on here" — the arms are folded because the room is cold. A run of practice where every answer turns out to be a real signal quietly trains you to over-read, which is the opposite of the point. • Two new kinds of body-language question. Side-by-side pairs: the same kind of moment twice, one where something is going on and one where it isn't, and you say which. And "what changed": the usual version of a scene next to today's. • Teen practice got the same treatment. The teen body-language set had almost no "nothing is wrong here" moments in the early levels. It does now. • Fixed: leveling up in Pressure & Deception could let a second level-up slip past the one-a-day cap.
