Hey Community!

Just a quick question. Im using tables from others and looking at their scripts to learn new stuff.

This is the compare in the beginning of a Godmode script:
Code:
push eax
mov eax,[eax+50]
cmp [eax+20],1
pop eax


My question here is: Why would i do it like that? Couldnt i just start the compare with [eax+70] without the push?

Thanks in advance!

mov eax,[eax+50] reads the 4 byte value at eax+50. It doesn't increase eax by 50

so after this eax holds a totally different address than before
