This might be a bug or just something stupid that I'm doing since I'm completely new to Lua, but the setAddress() method of the MemoryRecord class isn't working for me. Any time I call it with any kind of argument, it just clears out the address of the memory record I'm working with.

Here's a SSCCE:
Code:
al = getAddressList()
rec = al:createMemoryRecord()
print('initial:', rec:getAddress())
rec:setAddress("1")
print('final:', rec:getAddress())


Expected output:
Code:
initial: 0
final: 1


Actual output:
Code:
initial: 0
final: 


OS: Windows 7 64-bit
CE: Cheat Engine 6.4
CE was in 64-bit mode when the example above was run.
If you'd like any other information, feel free to ask.

Does this happen for anyone else?
Are there any ideas for why this is happening?

I know this may sound strange, but instead of rec:setAddress use rec.setAddress()

It works perfectly now. Thank you!

Should I use . instead of : on all the classes listed in main.lua?
