Cheat Engine

Hi,

I frequently execute the following steps. I am pretty sure there is a way to automate these with Lua, but I have no idea how to get started. For example, is there a way to record clicks in the UI into a Lua script? If not, how do I find out what Lua function matches which UI element? And once I have the Lua script, how/where do I execute it?

It would be great if someone could help me getting started.

Here's what I want to automate:


- Activate Mono features
- Go to .NetInfo
- Select the "Assembly-CSharp" bundle
- Select the "PlayerData" class
- Write down the address of the one static instance
- Create address table entries matching several of the PlayerData fields for the static instance
- Set them to specific values

Check monoscript.lua in the autorun directory of your Cheat Engine installation folder for more information on the Lua functions you could use.

This is all very possible. Once you have the Lua script you can use it in a normal Auto Assembler script within Cheat Engine:

Thanks for the quick reply!

I'm still a little lost. I looked at the monoscript.lua file and it indeed contains a lot of code, but unfortunately nothing that would help me find out what a given function does, or how to find a function that does something I need.

Is there maybe a simpler example somewhere, with more comments?


I'm also not sure what "a normal Auto Assember script" is, and how to execute it. Is this perhaps documented somewhere?
