Version 1.26 - More Base Tenses
Just a small update that tweaked the verb frequency a bit more. I noticed it was sometimes tough to learn what the base form of a verb was because every time, the game would randomly select from among the 7 tenses, so the base tense only appeared 14% of the time. It now has been coded to show up far more frequently, 25% in the case of 7 tenses. This makes it more likely to learn a word's infinitive form. I might tweak this a bit further but it's a good starting point.
If you're curious about the logic, first it finds the number of tenses (for example, 7 tenses). That's a 1/7 chance. Then the program adds 1 to both the numerator and denominator, raising the chance to 2/8 (25%).
So if there were three tenses (1/3 chance) then it becomes (2/4) instead, raising the chance from 33% up to 50%. To make this still relevant at higher theoretical tense amounts like 9, there's a 25% minimum chance for the base to appear.

From a developer standpoint, that is such a clever, simple, and direct approach. Nice tweak!
