This is based off of OTP, and is for a project of mine. I seam to be missing something and I don’t know what I am missing, or what is going wrong!
The encrypting is more of a cypher, and it is usually done on pen an paper, and it is meant to work like this:
you have a table of letters, a message, and a key. The table of letters are offset by one for every time you go down. You find each letter of the message in the first row, and meet with each letter of the key in the first column, where each pair meets is the encrypted message. The problem is, when I try to do that in unity it just spits out the unencrypted message!
the odd thing is that when I do this by hand, with the same information the debug gives me, I get a fully encrypted message! its like the nested list for my letter table is just being ignored and it is instead just putting the message there.
