Cheat Engine

kickclock · Posted: Tue Jul 13, 2010 2:31 am Post subject: a bug in Readmem(xx,xx)

an example script

[ENABLE]
globalalloc(mytestmem,0x1000)

mytestmem:
db 'Cheatengine!'
db 00

mytestmem+10:
readmem(mytestmem,0x10)
[DISABLE]

after enable script, mytestmem+10 is 0 .

in my plan, script will run my code one by one .
but looks like readmem is runing as first .

is there some thing can fix this bug ?
maybe a new order like this could useful

[ENABLE]
[first]
globalalloc(mytestmem,0x1000)

mytestmem:
db 'Cheatengine!'
db 00
[/first]

mytestmem+10:
readmem(mytestmem,0x10)
[DISABLE]

it's not a bug, it's designed like this. Writing to the memory is only done after everything in the script has been assembled into code and bytes, reading mytestmem and writing the bytes at the specific position just won't work

best solution is split it up into two script

Also, ask yourself why you need it, perhaps there is a different better way to solve the problem.
