I can consistently find the value for my character's health using a 2 byte search only. I have tested and the address for the character health is correct, not just a display value. When I do a pointer scan and then rescan using an updated address it shows 0 results found (and the results of the pointer scan are always 4 byte).

Is it possible that a game doesn't have persistent pointers at all, or can the search be modified in some way? And why does it give the values as 4 byte when they're being accessed by the game as 2 byte? I can manually change a 4 byte address to a 2 byte one and have it display correctly for that session but why is it 4 byte in the first place?

after the scan check what addresses it has found.
perhaps it has alligned it to a 32 bit address.
when doing a rescan you may have to make a similar adjustment yourself
