Creating P2SH Addresses for Networks Without SegWit Support

I generated a BCH address using the BchP2SHAddrEncoder on the BCH testnet for testing purposes. Despite multiple attempts, I could not initiate a payment from this address. Subsequently, I created another address for this network, this time using the P2SH type but with a different script (p2sh-p2pk, p2sh-p2pkh, and the standard p2sh multisig address). Fortunately, I was able to spend from the newly created address. During my research, I stumbled upon this post:. I believe that a different script should be employed to generate P2SH addresses for networks that don't support SegWit, such as BCH, DASH, and DOGE. I'm not entirely sure and would appreciate it if you could confirm. Thanks.

I want to express my gratitude for the excellent package you have created. I extensively used your package code to develop a wallet package in Dart.

Hi, thanks and sorry for the late reply. I'll take a look into it, even if I remember the addresses were correctly generated.
