The prompt is marked unanswered only if neither happened after it was shown.\n\nThe record of an unanswered prompt now holds only the time, where it used to also note which turn it belonged to.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis changes when a session is treated as waiting on you. If you typed something after a prompt appeared, the session is no longer counted as stuck waiting just because you did not answer that particular prompt.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
