On the Subject of Analyzing The Troll

I spent too much time on this not to make a manual.

The Troll will always be solvable regardless of the arrangement of modules on the bomb.

Normal solving steps

• Press The Troll (M % 13) + (S % 7) + 1 times.
  • where M is the number of solvable (non-needy) non-Troll modules
  • where S is the number of solved non-Troll modules.
• Solve exactly two other modules.
• Press The Troll when the last digit is equal to battery count % 10.

Earning a strike resets the module.

Special case

• Solving other modules can be skipped in there’s less than 3 unsolved non-Troll modules.
  • The above count includes any solvable module (including quirky modules like bosses and semi-bosses) and excludes needies.
  • In these cases, a viable cheese is to spam The Troll whenever the correct last digit of the timer is shown (to avoid the above math).
  • In all other cases, this step cannot be skipped.
  • But, you can force this step to be skipped by just solving The Troll at the end.

Refer to the ignore list table to see which modules ignore The Troll.
