perhaps

Code:

xxx.exe+2AE2370:
readmem([[[["xxx.exe"+4AB2180]+08]+218]+80]+88,4)

Honestly I can't remember trying it with the pointer syntax like that but it may work. If not then some lua certainly would

Code:

{$lua}
local src = '[[[["xxx.exe"+4AB2180]+08]+218]+80]+88'
local dest = 'xxx.exe+2AE2370'
local typeSize = 4
local bytes = readBytes(src, typeSize, true)
writeBytes(dest, bytes)

Though if you wanted to do it with other asm code neither of those would work. You'd need something like

Code:

push eax
mov eax, [[[[["xxx.exe"+4AB2180]+08]+218]+80]+88]
mov [xxx.exe+2AE2370], eax
pop eax

and that would only work if none of the pointers changed during gameplay, if it did you'd need to do each pointer read separately eg.

Code:

push rax
mov rax, ["xxx.exe"+4AB2180]
mov rax, [rax+8]
mov rax, [rax+218]
mov rax, [rax+80]
mov eax, [rax+88]
mov [xxx.exe+2AE2370], eax
pop rax
