Icon Bug: The in-game description is misleading

The Patuline Scrambler is a research project in the Laboratory.

The description says that the "Mush can no longer communicate on the Mush channel". However, the actual effect rather denies effective communication by scrambling all the messages.

Uses

  • Any communication over the Mush channel is scrambled (image provided). Non-latin alphabet posts become entirely empty.
    • If humans have researched the Research project Pheromodem, they can access and leave comments on the Mush channel, but their comments will be scrambled as well.
  • Icon Mush can still use their other communication devices to talk on private channels.

Notes

Because the Mush are not actually excluded from their channel, and even human comments will be scrambled, the combination of Pheromodem and Patuline Scrambler cannot be used to confirm humans.
