Cheat Engine

Hi,
I have a problem with a game I am trying to make a trainer for, just for a hands-on approach. I have done the CE tutorial, and mostly understand it.

GAME: SpongeBob SquareOff
Cheat Engine 5.3

The game uses points (100) for a turn. When your turn is over, you end your turn, this resets the points from what you had back to 100, waiting on the enemy. Then your turn again. Hope that explains the game some.

Anyway I searched for the 100 using CE exact found the address easily, (two searches). I know that the address changes when you reset or restart the game. So I was thinking of pointers.

Searched for what writes to this location, and got:
059E7C84 – 89 86 80 00 00 00 – mov[esi+00000080],eax


Scan for 01A4A388 and got
01B6AD0C - 01A4A388
01B6AD54 - 01A4A388
01F2ED68 - 01A4A388
020AC898 - 01A4A388
07C228F0 - 01A4A388

Used the top address 01B6AD0C in
Add address manually
pointer
1B6AD0C offset 80

Now, everything works to that point… until I reset the game (not restart), nothing works, the pointer or the exact address. However, if I exit the game, and restart, then link CE to it, the pointer works.

What am I doing wrong? I want to figure out this before moving on to keeping the movement cards from reseting, anyway one thing at a time.

Thanks in advance.

None of those address's you show are green. So you dont have a static pointer.

Instead right click the address you find after scans.
Select pointer scan and set it to level 2 and see what it finds.
Then test it out.

[-DEViL-]

right click on your pointer and select"Find out what access to this address".
then go to game and decrease and increase the value and see what you gets.
then search for that value they tell you.reapet this steps until you get the static pointer.
