There is a bug in Modern Cipher logging. Here's a log file: https://ktane.timwi.de/More/Logfile%20Analyzer.html#file=0db51d7cd1834714312b924a31dc64fb7bd3865f;bomb=5D3BZ3
It says that there's 2 or less batteries on the bomb, but the rule is 3 or less batteries on the bomb. That rule is valid, the logging is just wrong.

Hi there. Some bombs allow you to get more than 2 strikes, but the display on the bomb only shows 2. In that case, Modern Cipher will use a key that's hard / impossible to determine. The player *can* try all reasonable possibilities until they get one that makes a word, but this is pretty unreasonable. Alternatively, they can keep track of exactly how many strikes they have, but again, this can be tricky.

I'd suggest you limit the amount of strikes that add to the key to 2. If more than 2 strikes are on a bomb, then the key is only adjusted by 2.

Hi there. I think the bug I mentioned on March 26th still remains. Please fix. Thanks very much.

I just you a bug report for Case 4 on The Discord. It seems you're subtracting the number of modules solved instead of adding it.

3. For some reason, in this log file, it says this case has no encryption but I'm not sure why. It also logs that information several times. Here's the log: https://ktane.timwi.de/More/Logfile%20Analyzer.html#url=https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/268371889594826752/412097283467902976/output_log.txt;bomb=Z85HK8

4. The word list is super small. It's only 50 words. Before too long we're going to have them all memorized. Can you please increase the word list size significantly? I suggest a minimum of 200. I can help you come up with words if you like.

Hi there. I think several bugs remain. I mentioned them already. I'll list them again here:

1. The module still logs with ID "[Caesar Cipher #n]".

2. The message that gives logs the key has a blank when I think it intends to log the strikes: "[Caesar Cipher #2] <Stage 1> Numbers in serial: 4+3+ = 7 <= this is the key". See this log: https://ktane.timwi.de/More/Logfile%20Analyzer.html#url=https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/268371889594826752/412100896252755969/output_log.txt;bomb=GW4CC3

Hello everybody and thank you all for the comments!
This was my very first mod, so I was expecting some bugs I didn't notice, sorry about that!
I'll fix up everything as soon as I come back home, around 6.30p.m.
@porcu93: grazie mille per i suggerimenti

E si, il "moduleID" del modulo non è quello da te indicato in questa pagina, ma "caesarCipher"

Vedi di controllare gli errori grammaticali e nel codice che Rexkix ti ha indicato, e magari entra nel server Discord indicato da Timwi, il quale ha un sito in cui ci sono i manuali di tutti i moduli di mod, quindi passagli un file HTML del manuale e, se possibile, un link github contenente la mod in modo tale che anche altri modder possano aiutarti a trovare e risolvere bug.
