100	Mangle Statements	Constant decomposition and statement patching	article	2025-05-01T18:47:58-05:00	2025-05-01T18:47:58-05:00

This option will enable non-destructive constant decomposition and various statement patching.

The following child options are available:

• Mangle Numbers: Replaces number constants with a randomized binary expression which evaluates to that number.
• Mangle Strings: Performs light obfuscation of string constants.
• Mangle Self-calls: Replaces x:foo() with x.foo(x).
• Mangle Named Indexes: Replaces x.foo with x[<obfuscated "foo">]. This will mangle the string regardless of whether Mangle Strings is enabled.
• Mangle Globals: Globals are replaced with a cached global table indexed by an obfuscated string. eg. print becomes _ENV[<obfuscated "print">]
